Share Based Compensation [Abstract] |
Share Based Compensation | NOTE 15 - SHARE BASED COMPENSATION Share based compensation expense is recognized as General and Administrative Expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and consists of costs from the Spectrum equity plan. The following is a summary of share based compensation expense for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 for SBH and SB/RH, respectively.
|  | Three Month Periods Ended |  | Nine Month Periods Ended
(in millions) |  | June 30, 2019 |  | June 30, 2018 |  | June 30, 2019 |  | June 30, 2018
SBH |  | $ | 14.0 |  | $ | 5.7 |  | $ | 35.8 |  | $ | 7.0
SB/RH |  |  | 13.6 |  |  | 4.9 |  |  | 34.7 |  |  | 4.6
The Company recognizes share based compensation expense primarily from the issuance of its Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) based on the fair value of the awards, as determined by the market price of the Company’s shares of common stock on the designated grant date and recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. Certain RSUs are performance-based awards that are dependent upon achieving specified financial metrics over a designated period of time. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2019, the Company provided to certain employees RSU awards issued under a new Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”), with a 3-year, cliff vesting schedule and having both performance conditions dependent upon achieving specified financial targets (adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow) and time-based service conditions (70% performance/30% service). LTIP awards were granted in January upon approval from the Company’s Board of Directors. In addition to the LTIP awards, the Company also provided for bridge awards that are one-time awards to certain employees for transitioning to the new LTIP from previous equity incentive compensation plans. Bridge awards vest annually, on November 21, 2019 and November 21, 2020, and have both performance conditions dependent upon achieving specified financial targets (adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow) and time-based service conditions (60% performance/40% service). Bridge awards are also payable in either RSUs or cash, or both, based upon an employee election. Bridge awards elected to be payable in RSU are recognized as equity awards and included as a component of share-based compensation expense. The new awards were granted and recognized as compensation expense in January. Additionally, the Company regularly issues individual RSU awards under its equity plan to its Board members and individual employees for recognition, incentive, or retention purposes, when needed, which are primarily conditional upon time-based service conditions and included as a component of share-based compensation. In addition to RSU awards, Spectrum also provides for a portion of its annual management incentive compensation plan (“MIP”) to be paid in common stock of the Company, in lieu of cash payment, and is recognized as a liability plan. Share based compensation expense associated with the annual MIP was $4.3 million and $12.6 million for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $3.5 million and $6.8 million and for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2018, respectively. The remaining unrecognized pre-tax compensation cost for SBH and SB/RH at June 30, 2019 was $56.3 million and $55.9 million, respectively.
