Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

NOTE 7 - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

2015 Incentive Plan

The Company is authorized to grant shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock appreciation rights, cash incentive awards and options to purchase shares of common stock to employees and non-employee directors pursuant to its 2015 Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”). The 2015 Plan also designates measures that may be used for performance awards and market-based awards.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company granted 810 thousand performance-based RSUs ("PSUs") to employees with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $0.47 per share. The PSUs are subject to three-year cliff vesting. Vesting is contingent upon the continued service and market conditions that are met based on annualized stock price growth goals. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company granted 2,103 thousand shares of restricted stock to employees with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $2.38 per share. The restricted stock awards are subject to time-based vesting conditions and generally vest ratably over 3 years.

Stock-Based Compensation Activity and Expense

The following table shows the stock-based compensation expense recognized:


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
(in thousands)	September 30, 2025		September 30, 2024		September 30, 2025		September 30, 2024
Stock-based compensation expense	$	1,198	$	3,666	$	1,805	$	17,339

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized a one-time reversal of $6.6 million in previously recognized compensations expense, primarily due to the forfeiture of PSUs that did not meet performance conditions and the cancellation of 2025 annual incentive compensation.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 includes $0.8 million and $3.1 million, respectively, of accrued expense pertaining to annual incentive compensation expected to be settled in shares of common stock.

As of September 30, 2025, there was $11.2 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to all unvested share-based payment awards that the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of 2 years.
