Stock-Based Compensation |
Stock-Based Compensation | Note 2. Stock-Based Compensation ​ We maintain the Axcelis Technologies, Inc. 2012 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2012 Equity Plan”), which permits the issuance of options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance awards to selected employees, directors, and consultants of the Company. ​ The 2012 Equity Plan is more fully described in Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements in our 2025 Form 10-K. Beginning in May 2026, certain stock-based awards granted to executive management have market-based performance measures and are valued using the Monte-Carlo simulation valuation method with cliff vesting at the end of a performance period of three years. ​ We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $6.4 million and $5.4 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. These amounts include compensation expense related to RSUs. We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $11.3 million and $10.3 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. These amounts include compensation expense related to RSUs and stock issued to participants under the 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2020 ESPP”). ​ In both of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we issued 0.1 million shares of common stock upon vesting of RSUs granted under the 2012 Equity Plan and purchases under the 2020 ESPP. In the three-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we received proceeds of $1.3 million and $1.2 million, respectively, in connection with purchases under the 2020 ESPP. ​ In both of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we issued 0.2 million shares of common stock upon vesting of RSUs granted under the 2012 Equity Plan and purchases under the 2020 ESPP. In the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we received proceeds of $1.3 million and $1.2 million, respectively, in connection with purchases under the 2020 ESPP. ​
