2. | Stock Compensation
The Company had total stock-based compensation expense of $ 0.1 million and $1.6 million for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017, respectively, and stock-based compensation expense of $1.0 million and $1.8 million ( $0.8 million and $1.5 million net of tax) for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2016, respectively. Included in total stock-based compensation for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2017 was the vesting of stock options of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Included in total stock based compensation was expense of $0.3 million for the three months ended July 31, 2016 and income of $1.6 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2016, in each case related to stock options. The income was due to $2.1 million of previously recognized expense of certain performance based stock option grants for which the performance metrics were no longer expected to be satisfied, partially offset by expense from the vesting of stock options of $0.5 million during the nine months ended July 31, 2016.
