Share-based Compensation [Abstract] |
Stock-based compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company has several stock-based compensation plans under which it is currently authorized to grant restricted stock and stock. As of December 31, 2016, there are 5.5 million remaining shares available to grant under these plans. The Company generally issues new shares of common stock to satisfy employee performance share awards and purchases shares on the open market for nonemployee director stock awards. Total stock-based compensation expense (after tax) was $3.3 million, $2.9 million and $4.4 million in 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of December 31, 2016, total remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to stock-based compensation was approximately $4.9 million (before income taxes) which will be amortized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years. Stock awards Nonemployee directors may receive shares of common stock instead of cash in payment for directors' fees under the nonemployee director stock compensation plan. There were 37,218 shares with a fair value of $1.1 million, 58,181 shares with a fair value of $1.1 million and 43,088 shares with a fair value of $1.1 million issued under this plan during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Performance share awards Since 2003, key employees of the Company have been awarded performance share awards each year. Entitlement to performance shares is based on the Company's total shareholder return over designated performance periods as measured against a selected peer group. Target grants of performance shares outstanding at December 31, 2016, were as follows:
Grant Date | Performance Period | Target Grant of Shares |
February 2014 | 2014-2016 | 136,901 |
February 2015 | 2015-2017 | 200,112 |
June 2015 | 2015-2017 | 14,441 |
February 2016 | 2016-2018 | 310,583 |
March 2016 | 2016-2018 | 2,151 |
Participants may earn from zero to 200 percent of the target grant of shares based on the Company's total shareholder return relative to that of the selected peer group. Compensation expense is based on the grant-date fair value as determined by Monte Carlo simulation. The blended volatility term structure ranges are comprised of 50 percent historical volatility and 50 percent implied volatility. Risk-free interest rates were based on U.S. Treasury security rates in effect as of the grant date. Assumptions used for grants of performance shares issued in 2016, 2015 and 2014 were:
