Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Equity Compensation | 20. Equity Compensation We award stock options, time-based restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock units from time to time under the Papa John’s International, Inc. 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan. There were approximately 3.6 million shares of common stock authorized for issuance and remaining available under the 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan as of December 25, 2022, which includes 5.9 million shares transferred from the Papa John’s International 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan. We recorded stock-based employee compensation expense of $18.4 million in 2022, $16.9 million in 2021 and $16.3 million in 2020. At December 25, 2022, there was $22.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested awards, of which the Company expects to recognize $14.6 million in 2023, $6.5 million in 2024 and $1.1 million in 2025. Stock Options Options exercised, which were issued from authorized shares, included 82,000 shares in 2022, 212,000 shares in 2021 and 541,000 shares in 2020. The total intrinsic value of the options exercised during 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $3.4 million, $10.1 million and $13.8 million, respectively. There were no options granted in 2022, 2021 or 2020. Information pertaining to option activity during 2022 is as follows (number of options and aggregate intrinsic value in thousands):
|  | Number of Options |  | Weighted Average Exercise Price |  | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (In Years) |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value

Exercisable at December 25, 2022 |  | 235 |  | $ | 56.53 |  |  | 4.47 |  | $ | 6,452 |
Restricted Stock We granted shares of restricted stock that are time-based and generally vest in equal installments over three years (165,000 in 2022, 130,000 in 2021 and 207,000 in 2020). Upon vesting, the shares are issued from treasury stock. These restricted shares are intended to focus participants on our long-range objectives, while at the same time serving as a retention mechanism. We consider time-based restricted stock awards to be participating securities because holders of such shares have non-forfeitable dividend rights. We declared dividends totaling $467,000 ($1.54 per share) in 2022, $410,000 ($1.15 per share) in 2021 and $366,000 ($0.90 per share) in 2020 to holders of time-based restricted stock. We granted 69,000, 11,000 and 15,000 restricted stock units that are time-based and vest over a period of one to three years in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Upon vesting, the units are issued from treasury stock. Total dividends declared for these awards were insignificant to the results of our operations. Additionally, we granted stock settled performance-based restricted stock units to executive management (64,000 units in 2022, 61,000 units in 2021, and 92,000 units in 2020). The performance-based restricted stock units require the achievement of certain performance and market factors, which consist of the Company’s Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) relative to a predetermined peer group. The grant-date fair value of the performance-based restricted stock units was determined through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation model. The following is a summary of the significant assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the performance-based restricted stock units granted in 2022, 2021 and 2020:
Assumptions: |  | 2022 |  | 2021 |  | 2020
Risk-free interest rate |  | 1.5 | % |  | 0.2 | % |  | 0.9 | %
Expected volatility |  | 45.0 | % |  | 48.3 | % |  | 36.3 | %
The risk-free interest rate for the periods within the contractual life of the performance-based restricted stock unit is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatility was estimated using the Company’s historical share price volatility for a period similar to the expected life of the performance-based restricted stock unit. The performance-based restricted stock units granted vest over three years (cliff vest) and are expensed over the performance period. The weighted average grant-date fair value of performance-based restricted stock units granted during 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $113.90, $103.14 and $59.52, respectively. The fair value of time-based restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock units is based on the market price of the Company’s shares on the grant date. Information pertaining to these awards during 2022 is as follows (shares in thousands):
|  | Shares |  | Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Total as of December 26, 2021 |  | 582 |  | $ | 68.06
Granted |  | 298 |  | 103.18
Forfeited |  | (82) |  | 89.87
Vested |  | (280) |  | 57.40
Total as of December 25, 2022 |  | 518 |  | $ | 91.23
