Equity [Abstract] |
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY | STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Stock Repurchase Program On May 1, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized approximately $59.0 million in additional share repurchases, such that, effective for trades made after May 3, 2023, the aggregate amount available for stock repurchases was set at $100.0 million (the Repurchase Program). The shares can be repurchased from time-to-time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any particular number of shares of common stock and may be discontinued by the Board of Directors at any time. Decisions regarding the amount and the timing of repurchases under the Repurchase Program will be subject to the Company’s available liquidity and cash on hand, applicable legal requirements, the terms of the Company’s Loan Agreement, general market conditions, and other factors. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Repurchase Plan to allow for share repurchases during the Company’s blackout periods, beginning on January 2, 2024 and effective through November 7, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company repurchased a total of 310,235 shares of common stock for $6.4 million, at an average price of $20.51 per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock, but did pay $0.3 million in excise tax related to previous share repurchases. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $40.5 million remaining for share repurchase under the Repurchase Program, subject to certain conditions in the Company’s Loan Agreement. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had 32,476,983 unrestricted shares of common stock outstanding. Share-Based Payments On May 14, 2024, the Company’s stockholders approved the Cross Country Healthcare, Inc. 2024 Omnibus Incentive Plan (2024 Plan). Pursuant to the 2024 Plan, awards may be granted to employees, non-employee directors, consultants, and key advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries, including stock options (including incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options), stock appreciation rights, stock awards, stock units, other stock-based awards, and cash awards. The 2024 Plan was adopted principally to serve as a successor plan to the Cross Country Healthcare, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (2020 Plan) and to increase the number of shares of Company common stock reserved for equity-based awards to 2,400,000 shares (in addition to the share reserve amount that remained available under the 2020 Plan immediately prior to the adoption of the 2024 Plan and other eligible returning shares). No awards may be granted under the 2024 Plan after May 13, 2034. The following table summarizes restricted stock awards and performance stock awards activity issued under the 2020 Plan and the 2024 Plan (Plans) for the three months ended March 31, 2025:

Restricted stock awards granted under the Company’s Plans entitle the holder to receive, at the end of a vesting period, a specified number of shares of the Company’s common stock. Share-based compensation expense is measured by the market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. Awards granted to non-employee directors under the Plans will vest on the first anniversary of such grant date, or earlier subject to retirement eligibility. In addition, effective for the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company implemented modified guidelines that provide for accelerated vesting of restricted stock grants on the last date of service when a retirement-eligible director retires. Pursuant to the Plans, the number of target shares that are issued for performance-based stock awards are determined based on the level of attainment of the targets. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company’s Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved a 75.5% level of attainment for the 2022 performance-based share awards, resulting in the issuance of 85,001 performance shares that vested on March 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, $1.3 million was included in selling, general and administrative expenses related to share-based payments, and a net of 199,588 shares of common stock were issued upon the vesting of restricted and performance stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, $1.2 million was included in selling, general and administrative expenses related to share-based payments, and a net of 251,024 shares of common stock were issued upon the vesting of restricted and performance stock.
