8. Stockholders’ Equity

Performance Stock Units

In March 2024, the Company began to issue performance stock units (PSU) with a market condition that are earned based on the Company’s relative total stockholder return (rTSR) as compared to a peer group of companies measured over a three-year performance period and continued employment through the performance period. Depending on the actual performance over the measurement period, a rTSR PSU award recipient could receive up to 150% of the granted award. The grant date fair value of such awards is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation, which includes assumptions such as expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. These unobservable inputs represent a Level 3 measurement because they are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the Company’s own assumptions in measuring fair value. The compensation expense for the awards is recognized over the requisite service period regardless of whether the market conditions are achieved and will only be adjusted for pre-vesting forfeitures due to the termination of the recipient’s employment with the Company prior to the end of the performance period. As of March 31, 2024, there were approximately 374,603 PSU with a rTSR market condition outstanding, representing the maximum 150% of the original grant that could be received.

Contingent Cash Awards

In November 2021, the Company established a plan whereby substantially all full-time employees excluding executive management are eligible to receive a series of cash bonuses over certain periods based on continued employment and the Company’s stock price reaching a pre-specified target. The maximum potential payout of the cash awards at the grant date was $15.1 million. The Company has determined that the cash awards were classified as liabilities pursuant to ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The Company estimates the fair value of the awards at each reporting period using a Monte Carlo simulation, which is recognized as compensation cost over the derived service period. Total fair value of the awards at the grant date was $4.4 million. The maximum potential payout at March 31, 2024 after adjusting for forfeitures was $9.9 million. The fair value of the awards at March 31, 2024 was approximately $0.2 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a reversal of $4.3 million of compensation cost related to the awards. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded $0.3 million of compensation cost related to the awards.

2023 Inducement Plan

The Board adopted the Company’s 2023 Inducement Plan (Inducement Plan) on February 1, 2023. The Inducement Plan permits the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance stock awards and other stock-related awards. Stock awards granted under the Inducement Plan may only be made to individuals who did not previously serve as employees or non-employee directors of the Company or an affiliate of the Company. In addition, stock awards must be approved by either a majority of the Company’s independent directors or the Compensation Committee. The terms of the Inducement Plan are otherwise substantially similar to the Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. The maximum number of shares of Company common stock that may be issued under the Inducement Plan is 1,750,000 shares. At March 31, 2024, there were 408,356 shares available for new grants.
