SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY | 12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2024
Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY | STOCK REPURCHASES In 2018, the Company's Board of Director's approved a share repurchase program with a repurchase authorization of up to two million shares of the Company's common stock. During 2024, 2023 and 2022, no shares were repurchased. The maximum number of shares that may yet be purchased under the Plan was approximately 1,375,000 at December 31, 2024. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY Stock-Based Compensation Plans The Company currently has two 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 2010 Long-term Stock Incentive Plan (“2010 Plan”) - This plan was adopted in April 2010 and allows the Company to issue incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units, performance awards and other stock based awards authorized by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Options and awards issued under this plan expire ten years after the options and awards are granted. 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. The Company is no longer granting options or awards under this plan. A total of 249,064 options and 0 restricted stock units were outstanding under this plan as of December 31, 2024. The 2020 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (“2020 Omnibus Plan”) - This plan was adopted in June 2020 and allows the Company to issue incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards and other stock based awards authorized by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Options and awards issued under this plan expire ten years after the options and awards are granted. The maximum number of shares granted per type of award to any individual may not exceed 1,500,000 in any calendar year (or $10.0 million in the case of cash performance awards). 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 240,319 options and 335,518 restricted stock units were outstanding under this plan as of December 31, 2024. 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 calculated its dividend yield by dividing the annualized regular quarterly dividend by the current stock price at grant date. 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. Stock-based compensation expense forfeitures are recognized as they occur. The fair value of the restricted stock ("RSU") and performance restricted stock ("PRSU") is the closing stock price on the NYSE of the Company's common stock on the date of grant or the closing stock price of the Company's common stock on the last business day prior to the grant date. Upon delivery, a portion of the RSU or PRSU award may be withheld to satisfy the statutory withholding taxes. The remaining RSUs or PRSUs will be settled in shares of the Company's common stock after the vesting period and on the prescribed delivery date. These RSUs and PRSUs have none of the rights of outstanding shares of common stock, other than rights to cash dividends, until common stock is distributed. The PRSUs awarded in 2024 are entitled to cash dividends on the vested, not unvested, units. Shares issued under our share-based compensation plans are usually issued from shares of our common stock held in the treasury. Compensation cost related to non-qualified stock options recognized in continuing operations (selling, distribution and administrative expenses) for 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $0.5 million, $0.9 million, and $1.3 million respectively. The related future income tax benefits recognized for 2024, 2023, and 2022 was $0.2 million, respectively. Stock Options The following table presents the weighted-average assumptions used to estimate the fair value of options granted in 2024, 2023 and 2022:
| 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Expected annual dividend yield | 1.8 | % |  | 2.5 | % |  | 2.0 | %
Risk-free interest rate | 4.26 | % |  | 4.06 | % |  | 1.85 | %
