Stock-Based Compensation
On January 6, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the Malibu Boats, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”). The Incentive Plan, which became effective on January 1, 2014, reserves for issuance up to 1,700,000 shares of Malibu Boats, Inc. Class A Common Stock for the Company’s employees, consultants, members of its board of directors and other independent contractors at the discretion of the compensation committee. Incentive stock awards authorized under the Incentive Plan include unrestricted shares of Class A Common Stock, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, dividend equivalent awards and performance awards. As of March 31, 2015, 1,588,079 shares remain available for future issuance under the Incentive Plan.
Profits interest awards issued under the previously existing LLC Agreement were converted into LLC Units as part of the Recapitalization in February 2014. These LLC Units are generally subject to the terms of the applicable pre-existing agreements governing the awards, including vesting and repurchase rights at fair market value adjustment upon separation. Under these agreements, the LLC units cannot be resold and unvested units are subject to forfeiture if the recipient’s employment is terminated. Forfeited unvested units are not entitled to future distributions. Furthermore, such LLC Units are not transferable, except in limited circumstances as set out in the LLC Agreement. Pursuant to the LLC Agreement, the LLC has the right to determine when distributions will be made to holders of LLC Units and the amount of any such distributions. If a distribution is authorized, such distribution will be made to the holders of LLC Units (including Malibu Boats, Inc.) pro rata in accordance with the percentages of their respective LLC Units.
Readers should refer to Note 12 to the fiscal 2014 audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, for additional information related to the Company's awards and the Incentive Plan.
Stock compensation expense attributable to the Company's equity awards was $314 and $1,131 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2015, respectively, and $2,077 and $2,141 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, respectively, which included $1.8 million in connection with the Recapitalization by which certain agreements related to profit interest awards previously granted in 2012 under the former LLC agreement were modified to fully vest the awards at the time of Recapitalization and IPO transactions. Stock compensation expense attributed to equity awards issued under the Incentive Plan and under the previously existing LLC Agreement is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective awards and is included in general and administrative expense in the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The cash flow effects resulting from restricted unit awards were reflected as noncash operating activities. For the three and nine month period March 31, 2015, the Company recognized $30 in forfeitures attributed to equity awards issued under the Incentive Plan. As of March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014, unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested, share-based compensation was $2,354 and $3,515, respectively. As of March 31, 2015, the weighted average years outstanding for unvested awards under the Incentive Plan and under the previously existing LLC Agreement were 3.2 and 1.5 years, respectively.
