Stock-based Compensation | NOTE 16 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Stock Incentive Plans On June 1, 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment and restatement of the 2018 Omnibus Plan (the “2018 A&R Omnibus Plan”) which increased the number of shares available for issuance to 2,050,000 shares using stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, performance units and PSAs, cash-based awards, and other stock-based awards to all key officers, key employees, and non-employee directors of the Company. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately 1,016,040 shares available for grant under the A&R 2018 Omnibus Plan. Stock-based compensation expense is included as part of direct costs and indirect and selling expenses on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The total stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, the unrecognized compensation expense at December 31, 2024, and the weighted-average period to recognize the remaining unrecognized shares are as follows:

The stock-based compensation expense is deductible for income tax purposes. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, the Company recognized excess income tax benefits of $2.4 million, $1.1 million, and $1.1 million, respectively, related to stock-based compensation. Restricted Stock Units RSUs generally have a vesting term of three years. On vesting the employee is issued one share of stock for each RSU awarded. The fair value of shares vested was $10.3 million, $7.3 million, and $10.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the preceding table is based on the Company’s closing stock price of $119.21 per share as of December 31, 2024. Performance Share Awards In 2015, the Board approved a performance-based share program (the “Program”) that provides for the issuance of PSAs to its senior management. Under the Program, the number of PSAs that the participant will receive depends on the Company’s achievement of two performance goals during two performance periods. The performance goals under the Program are based on (i) the Company’s compounded annual growth rate in EPS (adjusted to exclude certain items specified in the award’s agreement) during a two-year performance period (the “Initial Period”) and (ii) the Company’s cumulative total shareholder return relative to its peer group (“rTSR”) during a performance period from the first day of the performance period (typically January 1 of the year awarded) to the last day of the third year of the performance period (typically December 31). The PSAs will only be eligible to vest following the expiration of the three-year performance period. The actual shares vested will be subject to both continued employment by the Company (barring certain exceptions allowing for partial performance periods) and actual financial measures achieved. The final number of shares of common stock that will be issued to each participant at the end of t he applicable performance period will be determined by multiplying the award by the product of two percentages: the first based on the Company’s EPS performance and the second based on the Company’s rTSR performance, subject to a minimum and maximum performance level. As of December 31, 2024, shares granted during 2022, 2023, and 2024 are within year three, two, and one of the performance periods, respectively, and therefore have not fully vested. A total of 46,630 shares granted in 2021 vested during 2024 after meeting the performance goals. As of December 31, 2024, a total of 59,863 shares granted in 2022 and 2023 are expected to vest in the future based on estimated financial measures achieved in the Initial Period and rTSR performance. A summary of the Company’s PSAs is presented below.
|  | Number of Shares |  |  | Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value |  |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value |

The aggregate intrinsic value in the preceding table is based on the Company’s closing stock price of $119.21 per share as of December 31, 2024. The fair value of the awards is estimated on the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model due to the market condition for the rTSR component. The fair value assumptions using the Monte Carlo simulation model for awards granted in 2024, 2023, and 2022 were:
|  | 2024 |  |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |
Dividend Yield |  |  | 0.4 | % |  |  | 0.5 | % |  |  | 0.6 | %
Historical Volatility |  |  | 29.3 | % |  |  | 33.6 | % |  |  | 39.0 | %
Risk-Free Rate of Returns |  |  | 4.4 | % |  |  | 3.8 | % |  |  | 2.1 | %
