Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] |
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation The Company’s share-based compensation awards at September 30, 2016, included restricted common stock awards, restricted stock units, performance units and performance share units issued under the SandRidge Energy, Inc. 2009 Incentive Plan. Total share-based compensation expense is measured using the grant date fair value for equity-classified awards and using the fair value at period end for liability-classified awards. Chapter 11 Proceedings As a result of the Chapter 11 filings, the remaining value of the Company’s liability-classified awards (restricted stock units which could be settled in cash or stock, restricted stock units which could be settled only in cash, performance units, and performance shares units), which totaled $0.6 million at that time, was reclassified and included in liabilities subject to compromise on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2016. As discussed in Note 1, on the Emergence Date, the Company’s current common stock was canceled and New Common Stock was issued. Accordingly, the Company's then existing share-based compensation awards were also canceled, which resulted in the recognition of any previously unamortized expense related to the canceled awards on the date of cancellation. Pre-Emergence Share-Based Compensation Restricted Common Stock Awards. The Company’s restricted common stock awards generally vested over a four-year period, subject to certain conditions, and were valued based upon the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The following table presents a summary of the Company’s unvested restricted stock awards.
| Number of Shares |  | Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
| (In thousands) |  |
Unvested restricted shares outstanding at December 31, 2015 | 5,626 |  |  | $ | 4.85 |
Granted | — |  |  | $ | — |
Vested | (3,034 | ) |  | $ | 5.34 |
Forfeited / Canceled | (158 | ) |  | $ | 6.25 |
Unvested restricted shares outstanding at September 30, 2016 | 2,434 |  |  | $ | 4.15 |
As of September 30, 2016, the Company’s unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock awards was $5.9 million. The remaining weighted-average contractual period over which this compensation cost may be recognized is 1.5 years. The Company’s restricted stock awards were equity-classified awards. Allocation of Share-Based Compensation. Equity compensation provided to employees directly involved in exploration and development activities is capitalized to the Company’s oil and natural gas properties. Equity compensation not capitalized is recognized in general and administrative expenses, production expenses, cost of sales and midstream and marketing expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016, the Company recognized share-based compensation expense of $1.8 million and $11.2 million, net of $0.5 million and $1.7 million capitalized, respectively. Share-based compensation expense for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016, includes $5.4 million for the accelerated vesting of 1.3 million restricted common stock awards and an insignificant amount of expense for the accelerated vesting of 1.8 million unvested restricted stock units related to the Company’s reduction in workforce during the first quarter of 2016. Additionally, the Company accelerated the vesting of approximately 1.3 million unvested restricted stock units during the first quarter of 2016, which were granted to the Company’s management and had an original vesting date of December 31, 2016. This resulted in an insignificant amount of stock compensation expense which was settled in cash. There was no significant activity related to the Company’s outstanding performance units and performance share units during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016. For the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized share-based compensation expense of $3.6 million and $17.5 million, net of $0.9 million and $3.2 million capitalized, respectively. Post-Emergence Share-Based Compensation Omnibus Incentive Plan. Upon the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy, pursuant to terms of the Plan, the SandRidge Energy, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”) became effective. The Company’s post-emergence board of directors or any committee duly authorized thereby, will administer the Omnibus Incentive Plan. The committee has broad authority under the Omnibus Incentive Plan to, among other things: (i) select participants; (ii) determine the types of awards that participants are to receive and the number of shares that are to be subject to such awards; and (iii) establish the terms and conditions of awards, including the price (if any) to be paid for the shares or the award. Persons eligible to receive awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan include non-employee directors of the Company, employees of the Company or any of its affiliates, and certain consultants and advisors to the Company or any of its affiliates. The types of awards that may be granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan include stock options, restricted stock, performance awards and other forms of awards granted or denominated in shares of New Common Stock, as well as certain cash-based awards. The maximum number of shares of New Common Stock that may be issued or transferred pursuant to awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan is 4,597,163. If any stock option or other stock-based award granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan expires, terminates or is canceled for any reason without having been exercised in full, the number of shares of New Common Stock underlying any unexercised award shall again be available for the purpose of awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. If any shares of restricted stock, performance awards or other stock-based awards denominated in shares of New Common Stock awarded under the Plan are forfeited for any reason, the number of forfeited shares shall again be available for purposes of awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. Any award under the Omnibus Incentive Plan settled in cash shall not be counted against the maximum share limitation. As is customary in incentive plans of this nature, each share limit and the number and kind of shares available under the Omnibus Incentive Plan and any outstanding awards, as well as the exercise or purchase prices of awards, and performance targets under certain types of performance-based awards, are subject to adjustment in the event of certain reorganizations, mergers, combinations, recapitalizations, stock splits, stock dividends or other similar events that change the number or kind of shares outstanding, and extraordinary dividends or distributions of property to the Company’s stockholders. During October 2016, awards for approximately 1.4 million shares of restricted stock were granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan. These restricted shares will vest over a three-year period.
