Equity [Abstract] |
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY | 6. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Share Repurchase Program On May 12, 2022, the Board of Directors ("BOD") approved a share repurchase program to repurchase up to $150.0 million of the Company's common stock. On August 2, 2022, the BOD increased the authorization to repurchase under the share repurchase program by up to an additional $75.0 million of the Company's common stock, or a total aggregate authorized amount to repurchase up to $225.0 million of the Company's common stock. On May 16, 2024, the BOD authorized an additional increase to the share repurchase program by which the Company may purchase up to an additional $125.0 million in shares of the Company's outstanding common stock, which increased the total aggregate authorization to up to $350.0 million. On May 15, 2025, the BOD authorized an additional increase to the share repurchase program by which the Company may purchase up to an additional $150.0 million in shares of the Company's outstanding common stock, increasing the total aggregate authorization to up to $500.0 million. Repurchases of the Company's outstanding common stock will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws and may be made at the Company's discretion based on parameters set by the BOD from time to time in the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise. The share repurchase program has no time limit and does not obligate the Company to purchase any particular amount of its common stock. The authorization for the share repurchase program may be terminated, suspended, increased or decreased by the BOD in its discretion at any time. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 5.9 million shares of its common stock at a total cost of $121.0 million, or $20.60 per share, excluding costs associated with the share repurchase program, including 1.9 million shares at an aggregate cost of $40.0 million during the third quarter of 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had repurchased a total of 20.4 million common shares at an aggregate cost of approximately $302.1 million, or $14.81 per share, and had approximately $197.9 million of repurchase authorization available under the share repurchase program. Restricted Stock Units During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, CoreCivic issued approximately 1.2 million restricted common stock units ("RSUs") to certain of its employees and non-employee directors, with an aggregate value of $23.9 million, including 1.1 million RSUs to employees and non-employee directors whose compensation is charged to general and administrative expense and 0.1 million RSUs to employees whose compensation is charged to operating expense. During the full year 2024, CoreCivic issued approximately 1.6 million RSUs to certain of its employees and non-employee directors, with an aggregate value of $23.5 million, including 1.5 million RSUs to employees and non-employee directors whose compensation is charged to general and administrative expense and 0.1 million RSUs to employees whose compensation is charged to operating expense. CoreCivic has established performance-based vesting conditions on a portion of the RSUs awarded to its officers and executive officers that, unless earlier vested under the terms of the agreements, are subject to vesting over a three-year period based upon the satisfaction of certain annual performance criteria. The RSUs awarded to officers and executive officers in 2023, 2024 and 2025 consist of a combination of awards with performance-based conditions and time-based conditions. Unless earlier vested under the terms of the RSU agreements, the RSUs with time-based vesting conditions vest in equal amounts over three years on the later of (i) the anniversary date of the grant or (ii) the delivery of the audited financial statements by the Company's independent registered public accountant for the applicable fiscal year. The RSUs with performance-based vesting conditions are divided into one-third increments, each of which is subject to vesting based upon satisfaction of certain annual performance criteria established at the beginning of the fiscal years ending December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025 for the 2023 awards, December 31, 2024, 2025, and 2026 for the 2024 awards, and December 31, 2025, 2026, and 2027 for the 2025 awards, and which can be increased up to 150% or decreased to 0% based on performance relative to the annual performance criteria, and further increased or decreased using a modifier of 80% to 120% based on CoreCivic's total shareholder return relative to a peer group. Because the performance criteria for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2026 and 2027 have not yet been established, the values of the third RSU increment of the 2024 awards and of the second and third increments of the 2025 awards for financial reporting purposes will not be determined until such criteria are established. A portion of the RSU award granted to CoreCivic's Chief Executive Officer in 2024 contains a single performance-based vesting condition that results in full vesting on the later of (i) the second anniversary of the award or (ii) the delivery of the audited financial statements by the Company's independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, if the performance criteria is met for the year ending December 31, 2025, or no vesting if the performance criteria is not met for such year. Time-based RSUs issued to other employees, unless earlier vested under the terms of the agreements, generally vest in equal amounts over three years on the later of (i) the anniversary date of the grant or (ii) the delivery of the audited financial statements by the Company's independent registered public accountant for the applicable fiscal year. RSUs issued to non-employee directors generally vest one year from the date of award. As of September 30, 2025, approximately 2.6 million RSUs remained outstanding and subject to vesting. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, CoreCivic expensed $7.1 million, net of forfeitures, relating to RSUs ($0.3 million of which was recorded in operating expenses and $6.8 million of which was recorded in general and administrative expenses). During the three months ended September 30, 2024, CoreCivic expensed $7.6 million, net of forfeitures, relating to RSUs ($0.3 million of which was recorded in operating expenses and $7.3 million of which was recorded in general and administrative expenses). During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, CoreCivic expensed $21.0 million, net of forfeitures, relating to RSUs ($0.9 million of which was recorded in operating expenses and $20.1 million of which was recorded in general and administrative expenses). During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, CoreCivic expensed $18.7 million, net of forfeitures, relating to RSUs ($1.2 million of which was recorded in operating expenses and $17.5 million of which was recorded in general and administrative expenses).
