Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Equity Incentive Plans | Note 8. Equity Incentive Plans 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan The Company’s Board initially adopted and approved the 2019 Trinity Capital Inc. Long Term Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2019 Long Term Incentive Plan”) on October 17, 2019 and the Company’s stockholders approved the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan on June 17, 2021 at the Company’s 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, with the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan becoming effective on June 17, 2021. The Company’s Board adopted and approved Amendment No. 1 to the 2019 Trinity Capital Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan on April 23, 2024 to, among other things, increase the total number of shares available for issuance under the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan by 5,800,000 shares (from 3,600,000 shares to 9,400,000 shares) and the Company’s stockholders approved such amendment on June 12, 2024 at the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, with such amendment becoming effective on June 12, 2024. Under the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan, awards of restricted stock, incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options (together with incentive stock options, “Options”) may be granted to certain of the Company’s executive officers, employee directors and other employees (collectively, the “Employee Participants”) in accordance with the SEC exemptive order the Company received on May 27, 2021 (the “SEC Exemptive Order”). While the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan contemplates grants of restricted stock, restricted stock units, Options, dividend equivalent rights, performance awards and other stock-based awards to the Employee Participants, the Company only sought and received exemptive relief from the SEC pursuant to the SEC Exemptive Order to grant awards of restricted stock and Options. As a result, the Company will only grant awards of such securities under the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan. The Employee Participants will have the right to receive dividends on such awarded restricted stock, unless and until the restricted stock is forfeited. Subject to certain adjustments under the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan, the maximum aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock authorized for issuance under the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan is 9,400,000 shares. The 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan is to be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) in accordance with the terms of the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan. The 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan will terminate on the day prior to the tenth anniversary of the date it was initially adopted by the Board, unless terminated sooner by action of the Board or the Compensation Committee, as applicable. For additional information regarding the 2019 Long Term Incentive Plan, please refer to the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 23, 2021 and June 14, 2024, and the Company’s definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on April 26, 2024. The following table summarizes issuances, vesting, and retirement of shares under the plan as well as the fair value of granted stock for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 (dollars in thousands).

The 2019 Restricted Stock Plan provides for grants of restricted stock awards (“Non-Employee Director Awards”) to the Company’s non-employee directors (the “Non-Employee Director Participants”), which are directors who are not “interested persons” of the Company (as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) in accordance with the SEC Exemptive Order. The Non-Employee Director Participants will have the right to receive dividends on such awarded restricted stock, unless and until the restricted stock is forfeited. Subject to certain adjustments under the 2019 Restricted Stock Plan, the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be subject to Non-Employee Director Awards is 120,000 shares. The 2019 Restricted Stock Plan is to be administered by the Compensation Committee, subject to the discretion of the Board.
