Adjustment To PEO Compensation, Footnote [Text Block] |  | The table below provides a reconciliation of the adjustments to the totals as presented in the SCT to compensation actually paid. Compensation actually paid is determined pursuant to SEC rules. As such, “Compensation Actually Paid” in the table below is not representative of the cumulative cash compensation provided and fair value of vested stock-based awards issued to our NEOs during the respective fiscal year. Rather, “Compensation Actually Paid” in the table below is determined by adjusting totals presented in the SCT by year-over-year changes in the fair value of unvested equity awards that are outstanding at the end of the respective year or vest during the respective year. ​

Tabular List [Table Text Block] |  | As described further in “Executive Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” our executive compensation is assessed using a variety of quantitative and qualitative factors associated with the Company’s operational and financial performance, stockholder valuation creation, capital allocation, succession planning, the retention and motivation of core employees, stockholder engagement and effectiveness in the areas of financial reporting and income tax planning. We utilize several performance measures to align NEO compensation with performance, many of which are not included as measures presented in the PVP Table above. Furthermore, we generally seek to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore, do not align NEO compensation with all of the measures presented in the PVP Table above. The list below presents performance measures identified as the most important factors for the determination of NEO compensation.
