Stock-Based Compensation |
Stock-Based Compensation | 11. Stock-Based Compensation Stock Incentive Plan In April 2013, we adopted the Exterran Holdings, Inc. 2013 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”) to provide for the granting of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance awards, other stock-based awards and dividend equivalent rights to employees, directors and consultants of Exterran. Under the 2013 Plan, the maximum number of shares of common stock available for issuance pursuant to awards is 6,500,000. Each option and stock appreciation right granted counts as one share against the aggregate share limit, and any share subject to a stock settled award other than a stock option, stock appreciation right or other award for which the recipient pays intrinsic value counts as 1.75 shares against the aggregate share limit. Awards granted under the 2013 Plan that are subsequently cancelled, terminated or forfeited are available for future grant. Cash settled awards are not counted against the aggregate share limit. Stock Options Stock options are granted at fair market value at the grant date, are exercisable according to the vesting schedule established by the compensation committee of our board of directors in its sole discretion and expire no later than seven years after the grant date. Stock options generally vest 33 1/3% on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. The weighted average grant date fair value for stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $10.19, and was estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions:
|  | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013 |
Expected life in years |  | 4.5 |
Risk-free interest rate |  | 0.66 | %
Volatility |  | 49.19 | %
Dividend yield |  | 0.0 | %
The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the grant date for a period commensurate with the estimated expected life of the stock options. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our stock over the period commensurate with the expected life of the stock options and other factors. We have not historically paid any dividends and do not expect to pay any dividends during the expected life of the stock options. The following table presents stock option activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2013:
|  | Stock Options (in thousands) |  | Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share |  | Weighted Average Remaining Life (in years) |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) |
Options outstanding, December 31, 2012 |  | 2,584 |  | $ | 27.02 |  |  |  |  |
Granted |  | 177 |  | 25.04 |  |  |  |  |
Exercised |  | (321 | ) | 17.60 |  |  |  |  |
Cancelled |  | (138 | ) | 31.23 |  |  |  |  |
Options outstanding, September 30, 2013 |  | 2,302 |  | 27.93 |  | 3.6 |  | $ | 17,490 |
Options exercisable, September 30, 2013 |  | 1,663 |  | 32.84 |  | 2.9 |  | 9,555 |
Intrinsic value is the difference between the market value of our stock and the exercise price of each stock option multiplied by the number of stock options outstanding for those stock options where the market value exceeds their exercise price. The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $3.0 million. As of September 30, 2013, we expect $2.5 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.5 years. Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Cash Settled Restricted Stock Units and Cash Settled Performance Awards For grants of restricted stock and restricted stock units, we recognize compensation expense over the vesting period equal to the fair value of our common stock at the grant date. We remeasure the fair value of cash settled restricted stock units and cash settled performance awards and record a cumulative adjustment of the expense previously recognized. Our obligation related to the cash settled restricted stock units and cash settled performance awards is reflected as a liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our grants of restricted stock, restricted stock units, cash settled restricted stock units and cash settled performance awards generally vest 33 1/3% on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. The following table presents restricted stock, restricted stock unit, cash settled restricted stock unit and cash settled performance award activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2013:
|  | Shares (in thousands) |  | Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Share |
Non-vested awards, December 31, 2012 |  | 1,992 |  | $ | 16.12 |
Granted |  | 702 |  | 25.10 |
Vested |  | (822 | ) | 18.43 |
Cancelled |  | (98 | ) | 19.29 |
Non-vested awards, September 30, 2013(1) |  | 1,774 |  | 18.43 |
(1) Non-vested awards as of September 30, 2013 are comprised of 404 thousand cash settled restricted stock units and cash settled performance awards and 1,370 thousand restricted stock shares and restricted stock units. As of September 30, 2013, we expect $26.0 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock, restricted stock units, cash settled restricted stock units and cash settled performance awards to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.7 years. Employee Stock Purchase Plan In August 2007, we adopted the Exterran Holdings, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), which is intended to provide employees with an opportunity to participate in our long-term performance and success through the purchase of shares of common stock at a price that may be less than fair market value. The ESPP is designed to comply with Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each quarter, an eligible employee may elect to withhold a portion of his or her salary up to the lesser of $25,000 per year or 10% of his or her eligible pay to purchase shares of our common stock at a price equal to 85% to 100% of the fair market value of the stock as of the first trading day of the quarter, the last trading day of the quarter or the lower of the first trading day of the quarter and the last trading day of the quarter, as the compensation committee of our board of directors may determine. The ESPP will terminate on the date that all shares of common stock authorized for sale under the ESPP have been purchased, unless it is extended. In May 2011, we amended the ESPP to increase the maximum number of shares of common stock available for purchase under the ESPP to 1,000,000. At September 30, 2013, 254,295 shares remained available for purchase under the ESPP. Our ESPP is compensatory and, as a result, we record an expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations related to the ESPP. The purchase discount under the ESPP is 5% of the fair market value of our common stock on the first trading day of the quarter or the last trading day of the quarter, whichever is lower. Partnership Long-Term Incentive Plan The Partnership’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Partnership Plan”) was adopted, in October 2006 for employees, directors and consultants of the Partnership, us and our respective affiliates. A maximum of 1,035,378 common units, common unit options, restricted units and phantom units are available under the Partnership Plan. The Partnership Plan is administered by the board of directors of Exterran GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership’s general partner, or a committee thereof (the “Plan Administrator”). Phantom units are notional units that entitle the grantee to receive a common unit upon the vesting of the phantom unit or, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, cash equal to the fair market value of a common unit. Partnership Phantom Units The following table presents phantom unit activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2013:
|  | Phantom Units (in thousands) |  | Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value per Unit |
Phantom units outstanding, December 31, 2012 |  | 64 |  | $ | 23.62 |
Granted |  | 55 |  | 23.76 |
Vested |  | (20 | ) | 24.28 |
Cancelled |  | (5 | ) | 24.31 |
Phantom units outstanding, September 30, 2013 |  | 94 |  | 23.52 |
As of September 30, 2013, we expect $1.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested phantom units to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 1.9 years.
