Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company has various stock compensation arrangements, which are more fully described in the 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Under the 2010 Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2010 Plan”), the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) has the ability to grant, among other things, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance-based awards. The Board awards restricted shares to non-employee Board members on an annual basis as part of such Board members’ annual compensation and to newly elected non-employee Board members in accordance with the Non-Employee Director Compensation Program. The time-based awards are generally issued in the second quarter, in conjunction with the director’s election to the Board, and the individual share awards vest in equal annual installments over the applicable service vesting period, which is three years. The Board awards time-based restricted shares to employees on an annual basis as part of the employees’ annual compensation. The time-based awards are generally issued in the fourth quarter and the individual share awards vest in equal annual installments over the applicable service vesting period, which is generally three years. Additionally, certain restricted share awards are subject to a mandatory holding period upon vesting if the grantee is a named executive officer. In December 2015, the compensation committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) awarded a one-time special retention award to certain executives. The grants consist of time-based awards and performance-based awards. The time-based awards vest in equal 25% installments over a four-year period, subject to the participant’s continued employment. The performance-based awards vest over a four-year period, subject to the achievement of applicable performance goals and the participant’s continued employment. The Compensation Committee annually adopts a Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. Outperformance Program (“OPP Plan”) under the 2010 Plan. An award under the OPP Plan is ultimately earned to the extent the Company outperforms a predetermined total shareholder return (“TSR”) goal and/or achieves goals with respect to the outperformance of its peers in a particular REIT index. The ultimate aggregate award cannot exceed the predetermined maximum bonus pool. OPP Plan awards granted are settled in common stock and in the case of certain executives, in performance units in our operating partnership. With respect to OPP Plan awards granted prior to 2017, to the extent an award is earned following the completion of a three-year performance period, 50% of the earned award will vest in full at the end of the three-year performance period and 25% of the earned award will vest in equal annual installments over the two years thereafter, subject to the participant’s continued employment. Commencing with the 2017 OPP Plan, the two-year post-performance vesting period was replaced with a two-year mandatory holding period upon vesting. In February 2018, the Compensation Committee adopted the 2018 OPP Plan. The 2018 OPP Plan is substantially similar to the 2017 OPP Plans except for (i) the performance period beginning on January 1, 2018 and ending on December 31, 2020, (ii) the maximum bonus pool is $25.0 million, (iii) the relative comparison index is the SNL US Office REIT index, (iv) the absolute TSR hurdle will be 21% (or 7% per annum) and (v) adjusted the sliding scale low return factor so that relative TSR pool can only be reduced by 75% under this feature. The per unit fair value of the grants from the 2018 OPP Plan was estimated on the date of grant using the following assumptions in the Monte Carlo valuation:
| Assumption
Expected price volatility for the Company | 20.00% |
Expected price volatility for the particular REIT index | 18.00% |
Risk-free rate | 2.37% |
Dividend yield | 2.90% |
