Stock-Based Compensation

 


12.  Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”) was approved by shareholders on May 7, 2013 and replaced several of the Company's incentive plans (collectively referred to as the “Prior Plans”). No new awards may be granted under the Prior Plans; however, outstanding awards under the Prior Plans will continue in force and effect pursuant to their terms. The 2013 Plan provides for both short-term and long-term incentive awards for employees and non-employee directors. Stock-based awards may take the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance shares or performance unit awards. Following amendments to the 2013 Plan to reflect the effect of the spin-off of the Company’s former foodservice business and the November 17, 2017 1-for-4 reverse stock split, the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for awards under the 2013 Plan is 7,477,395 shares.

Stock-based compensation expense was $1.9 million and $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense was $6.0 million and $4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense over the awards' vesting period.

No options to acquire shares of common stock were granted to employees during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. Options to acquire 187,484 and 273,800 shares of common stock were granted to employees during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The options granted in 2018 and 2017 become exercisable in three annual increments over a three-year period beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date and expire 10 years subsequent to the grant date. 

During the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, 15,425 and 2,500 RSUs, respectively, were issued by the Company to employees and directors. A total of 96,291 and 138,266 RSUs were issued by the Company to employees and directors during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The RSUs granted to employees generally vest on the third anniversary of the grant date, depending on the grant. The RSUs granted in 2018 to directors immediately vested. The RSUs granted in 2017 to directors vest on the second anniversary of the grant date.

No performance shares were issued during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. A total of 93,298 and 115,047 performance shares were issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Performance shares are earned based on the extent to which performance goals are met over the applicable performance period.  The performance goals and the applicable performance period vary for each grant year. The performance goals for the performance shares granted in 2018 and 2017 are based on 50% on total shareholder return relative to peers during the three-year performance period and 50% on Adjusted EBITDA percentage from continuing operations in 2020 and 2019, respectively. Depending on the foregoing factors, the number of shares earned could range from zero to 185,184 and zero to 196,316 for the 2018 and 2017 performance share grants, respectively.
