Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] |
INCENTIVE STOCK PLANS | INCENTIVE STOCK PLANS As a result of the spin-off and pursuant to the Employee Matters Agreement, the Company made certain adjustments to the exercise price and number of Rayonier stock-based compensation awards. The adjusted awards are generally subject to the same vesting conditions and other terms that applied to the original Rayonier award immediately before the spin-off, except as otherwise described below. Stock Option Awards Each Rayonier stock option was converted into an adjusted Rayonier stock option and a Rayonier Advanced Material stock option. The exercise price and number of shares subject to each stock option were adjusted in order to preserve the aggregate value of the original Rayonier stock option as measured immediately before and immediately after the spin-off, subject to rounding. Restricted Stock Awards Holders of Rayonier restricted stock, including Rayonier non-employee directors, retained those awards and also received restricted stock of Rayonier Advanced Materials, in an amount that reflects the distribution to Rayonier stockholders, by applying the distribution ratio (one share of Rayonier Advanced Materials for every three shares of Rayonier stock held) to Rayonier restricted stock awards as though they were unrestricted Rayonier common shares. Performance Share Awards Performance share awards outstanding as of the spin-off were treated as follows:
• | Performance share awards granted in 2012 (with a 2012-2014 performance period) continue to be subject to the same performance criteria as applied immediately prior to the spin-off, except that total shareholder return at the end of the performance period will be based on the combined stock prices of Rayonier and Rayonier Advanced Materials and any payment earned will be made in shares of Rayonier common stock and shares of Rayonier Advanced Materials common stock.
• | Performance share awards granted in 2013 (with a 2013-2015 performance period) were cancelled as of the distribution date and were replaced with time-vested restricted stock of the post-separation employer of each holder (Rayonier or Rayonier Advanced Materials, as the case may be) that will vest 24 months after the distribution date, generally subject to the holder’s continued employment. The number of shares of time-vested restricted stock granted were determined in a manner intended to preserve the original value of the performance share award, subject to rounding.
• | Performance share awards granted in 2014 (with a 2014-2016 performance period) were cancelled and replaced with performance share awards of the post-separation employer of each holder (Rayonier or Rayonier Advanced Materials, as the case may be), and are subject to the achievement of performance criteria that relate to the post-separation business of the applicable employer during a performance period ending December 31, 2016. The number of shares underlying each such performance share award were determined in a manner intended to preserve the original value of the award, subject to rounding.
The replacement of the 2013 performance share awards with time-vested restricted stock resulted in a $0.7 million increase in intrinsic value to Rayonier holders. This amount will be expensed over the 2-year vesting period ending in the second quarter of 2016. Overall, the spin-off resulted in lower stock-based compensation expense, which was $0.8 million for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2014.
