Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Share-Based Payments | Share-Based Payments The Company maintains an equity incentive plan (the "2017 Equity Incentive Plan") that provides for grants of stock options, restricted shares, restricted share units, stock-based performance units and certain other types of stock-based awards. Under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan, which has a ten-year term, the maximum number of shares available for grants or awards is an aggregate of 1,700,000. At March 31, 2020, there were 1,700,000 shares reserved for future issuance under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan. 558,200 restricted share units have been granted under the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan and are outstanding as of March 31, 2020. The 2017 Equity Incentive plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. With respect to the restricted share grants, generally one-half of the shares vest on the third anniversary of the grant, one-quarter of the shares vest in one-third increments upon the attainment of pre-defined levels of adjusted earnings per share, and the remaining one-quarter of the shares vest in one-third increments upon attainment of pre-defined levels of appreciation in the market value of the Company's Class A Common Stock. Additionally, restricted shares cannot vest until the first anniversary of the grant date. Unvested restricted shares generally expire on the earlier of three or five years from the date of grant, upon employment termination, or within specified time limits following voluntary employment termination (with the consent of the Company), retirement or death. The Company issues restricted shares from treasury shares. Note 9. Share-Based Payments (continued) With respect to the restricted share unit grants, units generally vest on the third anniversary of the grant date. The number of units that vest depend on certain time and performance thresholds. Approximately thirty-eight percent of the shares vest based on time, while the remaining vest based on pre-defined performance thresholds. The Company issues common stock from treasury shares once vested. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, stock-based compensation cost totaled $2,508 and $1,366, respectively. For the six-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, stock-based compensation cost totaled and $4,539 and $5,013, respectively. The stock-based compensation cost that was recognized for retirement-eligible employees was $625 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, and $938 and $1,849 for the six-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The associated future income tax benefit recognized for stock-based compensation was $614 and $335 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $793 and $870 for the six-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The transactions for restricted shares and restricted share units for the six months ended March 31, 2020 were as follows:
| Shares /Units |  | Weighted- average Grant-date Fair Value
Non-vested at September 30, 2019 | 615,635 |  |  | $ | 49.61 |
Granted | 296,000 |  |  | 35.29 |
Vested | (125,190) |  |  | 64.50 |
Expired or forfeited | (20,690) |  |  | 65.01 |
Non-vested at March 31, 2020 | 765,755 |  |  | $ | 41.22 |
As of March 31, 2020, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock was $13,105 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years. The Company maintains the 2019 Director Fee Plan, the Amended and Restated 2014 Director Fee Plan and the 1994 Director Fee Plan (collectively, the "Director Fee Plans"). There will be no further fees or share-based awards granted under the Amended and Restated 2014 Director Fee Plan and the 1994 Director Fee Plan. Under the 2019 Director Fee Plan, non-employee directors (except for the Chairman of the Board) each receive, as an annual retainer fee for fiscal 2020, either cash or shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock with a value equal to $85. The annual retainer fee for fiscal 2020 paid to the non-employee Chairman of the Board is $185. Where the annual retainer fee is provided in shares, each director may elect to be paid these shares on a current basis or have such shares credited to a deferred stock account as phantom stock, with such shares to be paid to the director subsequent to leaving the Board. The total number of shares of stock that have been authorized to be issued under the 2019 Director Fee Plan or credited to a deferred stock compensation account for subsequent issuance is 150,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment upon certain events such as stock dividends or stock splits). The value of deferred shares is recorded in other liabilities. A total of 30,374 shares had been deferred under the Director Fee Plans as of March 31, 2020. Additionally, non-employee directors each receive an annual stock-based grant (non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights and/or restricted shares or units) with a value of $125 for fiscal 2020. 241,378 restricted shares and restricted share units have been granted under the Director Fee Plans, 68,149 of which were issued under the 2019 Director Fee Plan. 68,149 restricted shares and restricted share units are unvested at March 31, 2020.
