Equity | Note 12—Equity 2024 Equity Incentive Plan On December 13, 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved the adoption of the Company’s 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”), which is intended to provide incentives to officers, employees, directors, and consultants of the Company, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, deferred stock units (“DSUs”), and restricted stock, from and after September 16, 2024. There are 250,000 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock reserved for the grant of awards under the 2024 Plan. 2015 Stock Option and Incentive Plan On December 13, 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s 2015 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”) to increase the number of shares of the Company’s Class B common stock available for the grant of awards thereunder by an additional 250,000 shares. The 2015 Plan is scheduled to expire on September 16, 2024. In both the six months ended January 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company received cash from the exercise of stock options of $0.2 million for which the Company issued 12,500 shares of its Class B common stock. Stock Repurchases The Company has an existing stock repurchase program authorized by its Board of Directors for the repurchase of shares of the Company’s Class B common stock. The Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 8.0 million shares in the aggregate. In the six months ended January 31, 2024, the Company repurchased 135,261 shares of its Class B common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $3.2 million. In the six months ended January 31, 2023, the Company repurchased 203,436 shares of its Class B common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $5.0 million. At January 31, 2024, 4.6 million shares remained available for repurchase under the stock repurchase program. In the six months ended January 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company paid $15,000 and $0.3 million, respectively, to repurchase 654 and 13,403 shares, respectively, of the Company’s Class B common stock that were tendered by employees of the Company to satisfy the employees’ tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of DSUs, the lapsing of restrictions on restricted stock, and shares issued for bonus payments. Such shares were repurchased by the Company based on their fair market value as of the close of business on the trading day immediately prior to the vesting date. Deferred Stock Units Equity Incentive Program On November 30, 2022, the Company adopted an equity incentive program (under its 2015 Plan) in the form of grants of DSUs that, upon vesting, will entitle the grantees to receive shares of the Company’s Class B common stock. The number of shares that will be issuable on each vesting date will vary between 50% to 200% of the number of DSUs that vest on that vesting date, depending on the market price for the underlying Class B common stock on the vesting date relative to the base price approved by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors of $25.45 per share (which was based on the market price at the time of the initial grants under this program). On February 21, 2024, the second vesting date under the program, in accordance with the program and based on certain elections made by grantees, the Company issued 53,706 shares of its Class B common stock for vested DSUs. Subject to continued full time employment or other services to the Company, the remaining 147,540 DSUs are scheduled to vest on February 25, 2025, the third and final vesting date under the program. Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with Abilio (“Bill”) Pereira On December 21, 2023, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with Bill Pereira, the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer. The agreement provides for, among other things, certain equity grants, including 23,500 DSUs that, upon vesting, represent the right to receive shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, and 50,000 shares of Class B common stock of net2phone 2.0, as well as a contingent bonus subject to the completion of certain financial milestones as set forth in the agreement. The Company currently believes it is probable that some of the milestones will be satisfied, and some of the contingent bonus will be earned, for which the contingent bonus may be paid, at Mr. Pereira’s option, in either shares of the Company’s Class B common stock or cash. In the three and six months ended January 31, 2024, the Company recorded an aggregate stock-based compensation expense of $1.4 million related to these equity grants and the contingent bonus, which is included in “Selling, general and administrative expense” in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. At January 31, 2024, there was an aggregate of $0.4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to Mr. Pereira’s non-vested DSUs, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period that ends in February 2025. Also at January 31, 2024, there was an aggregate of $2.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the probable portion of Mr. Pereira’s contingent bonus, which is expected to be recognized over the estimated period that the Company expects the milestones to be satisfied, which ends in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Exchange of NRS Shares for the Company’s Shares In January 2024, three management employees of NRS exchanged shares of NRS’ Class B common stock that they held for shares of the Company’s Class B common stock with an equal value. The NRS shares in the exchange represented an aggregate of 1.25% of NRS’ outstanding shares, which were exchanged for an aggregate of 192,433 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock. The Company accounted for the exchange as an equity transaction and recorded a decrease in “Noncontrolling interests” and an increase in “Additional paid-in capital” of $0.1 million, based on the carrying amount of the 1.25% noncontrolling interest in NRS. Restricted net2phone 2.0 Common Stock Repurchased from Employees In January 2024, the restrictions lapsed on the 0.5 million restricted shares of net2phone 2.0 Class B common stock that were granted in December 2020 to each of Howard S. Jonas and Shmuel Jonas, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. In addition, in January 2024, Bill Pereira was granted 50,000 shares of net2phone 2.0 Class B common stock in connection with the agreement described above. The Company withheld a portion of these shares representing an aggregate of 4.5% of the outstanding shares of net2phone 2.0 with an aggregate fair value of $3.6 million to satisfy the grantees’ tax withholding obligations in connection with the lapsing of restrictions on restricted stock or the grant of shares. The fair value per share of the net2phone 2.0 Class B common stock was based on a valuation of the business enterprise using a market approach and income approach. The Company recorded an increase in “Noncontrolling interests” of $53,000 and a decrease in “Additional paid-in capital” of $3.61 million, and an offsetting income tax withholding liability of $3.6 million. Subsequent Event—Dividend Payments In March 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors initiated a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share on the Company’s Class A and Class B common stock. The initial dividend will be paid on or about March 27, 2024 with a record date of March 19, 2024. The dividend will supplement the Company’s existing stock repurchase program.
