SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY [Abstract] |
SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY | 9. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY Stock based compensation plans The Company currently has five equity compensation plans which reserve shares of common stock for issuance to key employees, directors, consultants and advisors to the Company. The following is a description of these plans: The 1995 Long-term Stock Incentive Plan - This plan, adopted in 1995, allowed the Company to issue qualified, non-qualified and deferred compensation stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted unit grants, performance unit grants and other stock based awards authorized by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Options issued under this plan expire ten years after the options are granted. The ability to grant new awards under this plan ended on December 31, 2005 but awards granted prior to such date continue until their expiration. No options were outstanding under this plan as of December 31, 2014. The 1995 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors - This plan, adopted in 1995, provides for automatic awards of non-qualified options to directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company or its affiliates. All options granted under this plan will have a ten year term from grant date and are immediately exercisable. A maximum of 100,000 shares may be granted for awards under this plan. The ability to grant new awards under this plan ended on October 12, 2006 but awards granted prior to such date continue until their expiration. A total of 4,000 options were outstanding under this plan as of December 31, 2014. The 1999 Long-term Stock Incentive Plan, as amended ("1999 Plan") - This plan was adopted in October 1999 with substantially the same terms and provisions as the 1995 Long-term Stock Incentive Plan. The Company increased the number of shares that may be granted under this plan to a maximum of 7,500,000 from 5,000,000 shares. The maximum number of shares granted per type of award to any individual may not exceed 1,500,000 in any calendar year and 3,000,000 in total. The ability to grant new awards under this plan ended on December 31, 2009 but awards granted prior to such date continue until their expiration. A total of 558,500 options were outstanding under this plan as of December 31, 2014. The 2006 Stock Incentive Plan For Non-Employee Directors - This plan, adopted by the Company's stockholders in October, 2006, replaces the 1995 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors. The Company adopted the plan so that it could offer directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company or of any entity in which the Company has more than a 50% equity interest ("independent directors") an opportunity to participate in the ownership of the Company by receiving options to purchase shares of common stock at a price equal to the fair market value at the date of grant of the option and restricted stock awards. Awards for a maximum of 200,000 shares may be granted under this plan. A total of 15,000 options were outstanding under this plan as of December 31, 2014. The 2010 Long-term Stock Incentive Plan ("2010 Plan") - This plan was adopted in April, 2010 with substantially the same terms and provisions as the 1999 Long-term Stock Incentive Plan. The maximum number of shares granted per type of award to any individual may not exceed 1,500,000 in any calendar year. Restricted stock grants and common stock awards reduce stock options otherwise available for future grant. Awards for a maximum of 7,500,000 shares may be granted under this plan. A total of 524,750 options and 255,000 restricted stock units were outstanding under this plan as of December 31, 2014. Shares issued under our share-based compensation plans are usually issued from shares of our common stock held in the treasury. The fair value of employee share options is recognized in expense over the vesting period of the options, using the graded attribution method. The fair value of employee share options is determined on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company has used historical volatility in its estimate of expected volatility. The expected life represents the period of time (in years) for which the options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve. Compensation cost related to non-qualified stock options recognized in operating results (selling, general and administrative expense) for 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $0.7 million, $1.1 million, and $2.5 million respectively. The related future income tax benefits recognized for 2014, 2013 and 2012 were $0.2 million, $0.4 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Stock options The following table presents the weighted-average assumptions used to estimate the fair value of options granted in 2014, 2013 and 2012:

The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $0.2 million, $0.2 million and $1.4 million respectively, for 2014, 2013 and 2012. The following table summarizes information about options vested and exercisable or nonvested that are expected to vest (nonvested outstanding less expected forfeitures) at December 31, 2014:

The aggregate intrinsic value in the tables above represents the total pretax intrinsic value (the difference between the closing stock price on the last day of trading in 2014 and the exercise price) that would have been received by the option holders had all options been exercised on December 31, 2014. This value will change based on the fair market value of the Company's common stock. The following table reflects the activity for all unvested stock options during 2014:
|  | Shares |  |  | Weighted Average Grant- Date Fair Value |
Unvested at January 1, 2014 |  |  | 402,750 |  |  | $ | 8.58 |
Granted |  |  | 65,000 |  |  | $ | 5.92 |
Vested |  |  | (134,000 | ) |  | $ | 8.77 |
Forfeited |  |  | (71,000 | ) |  | $ | 7.02 |
Unvested at December 31, 2014 |  |  | 262,750 |  |  | $ | 8.25 |
At December 31, 2014, there was approximately $0.4 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.67 years. The total fair value of stock options vested during 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $1.2 million, $1.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units In 2004, the Company granted 1,000,000 restricted stock units ("RSUs") under the 1999 Plan to a former officer and director. A RSU represents the right to receive a share of the Company's common stock. The RSUs have none of the rights as other shares of common stock, other than rights to cash dividends, until common stock is distributed. This RSU award was a non-performance award which vested at the rate of 20% on May 31, 2005 and 10% per year on April 1, 2006 and each year thereafter. The share-based expense for RSUs is determined based on the market price of the Company's stock at the date of the award. Compensation expense related to this RSU was zero in 2014, 2013 and 2012. As part of the settlement agreement with a former officer and director of the company, all unvested RSUs were terminated and of no further force and effect. In August 2010, the Company granted 175,000 RSUs under the 2010 Plan to a key employee who is also a Company director. These RSUs have none of the rights as other shares of common stock, other than rights to cash dividends, until common stock is distributed. This RSU award was a non-performance award which vests in ten equal annual installments of 17,500 units beginning May 15, 2011 and each May 15, thereafter. Compensation expense related to this RSU award was approximately $0.2 million, $0.3 million and $0.4 million during each of 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. In October 2011, the Company granted 100,000 RSUs under the 2010 Plan to, at that time, a key employee. This RSU award was a non-performance award which vested in ten equal annual installments of 10,000 units beginning October 3, 2012 and each October 3 thereafter. The termination without cause of this key employee during 2013 caused the accelerated vesting of the remaining 90,000 shares in accordance with the restricted stock agreement with the Company. Compensation expense related to these restricted stock awards was approximately $0.0 million, $0.8 million and $0.2 million during each of 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. In November 2011, the Company granted 100,000 RSUs under the 2010 Plan to a key employee who is also a Company director. This RSU award was a non-performance award which vests in ten equal annual installments of 10,000 units beginning November 14, 2012 and each November 14 thereafter. Compensation expense related to this RSU award was approximately $0.2 million, $0.2 million and $0.4 million during each of 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. In January 2012 and March 2012, the Company granted 50,000 RSUs under the 2010 Plan to each of two key employees. These RSU awards were non-performance awards which vests in ten equal annual installments of 10,000 units beginning January 3, 2013 and March 1, 2013, respectively, and each January 3 and March 1, thereafter. Compensation expense related to these RSU awards were approximately $0.3 million, $0.4 million and $0.5 million during each of 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Share-based compensation expense for restricted stock issued to Directors was $0.1 million in each of 2014, 2013 and 2012.
