SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION [Abstract] |
SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION | NOTE 6 - SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION In March 2007 shareholders approved a new share-based compensation plan ("Plan"), under which options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance stock, performance units, and other awards based on, or related to, shares of the Company's common stock may be granted from shares authorized but unissued or shares previously issued and reacquired by the Company. A maximum of six million shares of common stock may be issued under the Plan. Awards may be granted to officers, employees, directors, consultants, advisors, and independent contractors of the Company or its subsidiaries. In the event of a change in control (as defined in the Plan), the vesting of awards may be accelerated. The Plan, aspects of which are more fully described below, prohibits further awards from being issued under prior plans. The Company incurred total share-based compensation costs of $0.9 million and $0.7 million for the three month periods ended January 27, 2013 and January 29, 2012, respectively. No share-based compensation cost was capitalized as part of an asset and no related income tax benefits were recorded during the periods presented. Stock Options Option awards generally vest in one to four years, and have a ten-year contractual term. All incentive and non-qualified stock option grants have an exercise price no less than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The grant date fair values of options are based on closing prices of the Company's common stock on the dates of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock. The Company uses historical option exercise behavior and employee termination data to estimate expected term, which represents the period of time that the options granted are expected to remain outstanding. The risk-free rate of return for the estimated term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant. The weighted-average inputs and risk-free rate of return ranges used to calculate the grant date fair value of options issued during the three month periods ended January 27, 2013 and January 29, 2012, are presented in the following table.

Information on outstanding and exercisable option awards as of January 27, 2013, is presented below.
Options |  | Shares |  |  | Weighted Average Exercise Price |  | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value |
Outstanding at January 27, 2013 |  |  | 4,419,989 |  |  | $ | 8.06 |  | 6.3 years |  | $ | 5,159 |
Exercisable at January 27, 2013 |  |  | 2,843,728 |  |  | $ | 9.28 |  | 5.0 years |  | $ | 4,544 |
There were 564,000 share options granted during the three month period ended January 27, 2013, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $3.99 per share, and there were 492,500 share options granted during the three month period ended January 29, 2012, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $4.46 per share. As of January 27, 2013, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested option awards was approximately $5.1 million. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average amortization period of 2.7 years. Restricted Stock The Company periodically grants restricted stock awards. The restrictions on these awards lapse over a service period that has ranged from less-than-one to eight years. There were 204,500 restricted stock awards issued during the three month period ended January 27, 2013, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $5.46 per share, and there were 168,750 restricted stock awards granted during the three month period ended January 29, 2012, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $6.28 per share. As of January 27, 2013, the total compensation cost not yet recognized related to unvested restricted stock awards was approximately $1.8 million. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average amortization period of 2.2 years. As of January 27, 2013, there were 385,314 shares of restricted stock outstanding.
