Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation (a) Restricted Stock Federated Hermes' long-term stock-incentive compensation is provided under the Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan), as amended and subsequently approved by shareholders from time to time. Share-based awards are granted to reward Federated Hermes' employees and non-management directors who have contributed to the success of Federated Hermes and to provide incentive to increase their efforts on behalf of Federated Hermes. Since the Plan's inception, a total of 30.6 million shares of Class B common stock have been authorized for granting share-based awards in the form of restricted stock, stock options or other share-based awards. As of December 31, 2020, 2.4 million shares are available under the Plan. Share-based compensation expense was $26.7 million, $25.1 million and $23.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The associated tax benefits recorded in connection with share-based compensation expense were $6.4 million, $6.0 million and $5.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. At December 31, 2020, the maximum remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to share-based awards approximated $76 million which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 6 years. Federated Hermes' restricted stock awards represent shares of Federated Hermes Class B common stock that may be sold by the awardee only once restrictions lapse, as dictated by the terms of the award. The awards are generally subject to graded vesting schedules that vary in length from three to 10 years with a portion of the award vesting each year, as dictated by the terms of the award. For an award with a ten-year vesting period, the restrictions on the vested portion of the award typically lapse on the award's fifth- and tenth-year anniversaries. Certain restricted stock awards granted pursuant to a key employee bonus program have a three-year graded vesting schedule with restrictions lapsing at each vesting date. During these restriction periods, the recipient receives dividends on all shares awarded, regardless of their vesting status. The following table summarizes activity of non-vested restricted stock awards for the year ended December 31, 2020:
|  | Restricted Shares |  | Weighted- Average Grant- Date Fair Value

1 During 2020, Federated Hermes awarded 649,581 shares of restricted Class B common stock in connection with a bonus program in which certain key employees received a portion of their bonus in the form of restricted stock under the Plan. This bonus restricted stock, which was granted on the bonus payment date and issued out of treasury, generally vests over a three-year period. Also during 2020, Federated Hermes awarded 485,000 shares of restricted Class B common stock to certain key employees. These periodic restricted stock awards generally vest over a ten-year period. Federated Hermes awarded 1,134,581 shares of restricted Class B common stock with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $25.98 to employees during 2020; awarded 928,324 shares of restricted Class B common stock with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $30.10 to employees during 2019; and awarded 899,269 shares of restricted Class B common stock with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $28.30 to employees during 2018. The total fair value of restricted stock vested during 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $23.2 million, $28.4 million and $24.0 million, respectively. (b) Subsidiary Stock Plan Effective July 2, 2018, Federated Hermes established a non-public subsidiary share-based compensation plan for certain employees of one of its subsidiaries. These awards, which are subject to continued-service vesting requirements, vest over a period of three to five years. At various predetermined dates, but no earlier than 9 months after vesting, award holders have a right to exercise a put option to sell shares to Federated Hermes at fair value and Federated Hermes has a right to exercise a call option to acquire shares at fair value. Federated Hermes recognized compensation expense for this plan of $8.8 million, $7.9 million and $4.2 million in Compensation and Related expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. At December 31, 2020, the remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to these plan awards approximated $25 million which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 3 years.
