Stock-Based Compensation

Note 8. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock compensation plans: The Company has the 2007 Management Incentive Plan (the “2007 Stock Plan”) and the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2011 Stock Plan”). Under these plans, 1,987,412 shares of authorized common stock have been reserved for issuance pursuant to grants approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). All grants are made at 100% of the fair value at the date of grant. Options granted under the 2007 plan vest at 20% at the date of grant and 20% on the anniversary date of the grant each year thereafter for 4 years. Options granted under the 2011 plan vest at 20% each year for 5 years. In addition, these options vest and become exercisable in full upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Option Award Agreements). Participants who are awarded options must exercise their options within a maximum of 10 years of the grant. At March 31, 2013, there were 987,790 shares available for grant under the 2007 Stock Plan and 2011 Stock Plan, collectively.

The Company recognizes compensation expense in the financial statements for all stock-based payments granted based upon the fair value estimated.

The fair value of option grants is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

Expected volatility is based on the historic volatility of a publicly traded company in the same industry. The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield at the date the Board approved the option awards for the period (9 to 10 years) over which options are exercisable.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense in the amount of $179 and $22, respectively. As of March 31, 2013, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense to be recognized over future periods approximated $3,013. This amount will be recognized as expense over a period of 4.2 years. The total income tax benefit recognized in the income statement for the stock-based compensation arrangements was $69.8 and $9.0, for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
