Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] |
Share-Based Compensation | Note 1 3 – Share-Based Compensation We have one equity incentive plan from which we are authorized to grant equity awards, the AstroNova, Inc. 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”). The 2018 Plan provides for, among other things, the issuance of awards, including incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”), or performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”). The 2018 Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 950,000 shares of common stock, plus an additional number of shares equal to the number of shares subject to awards granted under previous equity incentive plans that are forfeited, cancelled, satisfied without the issuance of stock, otherwise terminated (other than by exercise), or, for shares of stock issued pursuant to any unvested award, that are reacquired by us at not more than the grantee’s purchase price (other than by exercise). Under the 2018 Plan, all awards to employees generally have a minimum vesting period of one year. Options granted under the 2018 Plan must be issued at an exercise price of not less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant and expire after ten years. Under the 2018 Plan, there were 124,439 unvested RSUs; 188,633 unvested PSUs; 21,172 unvested RSAs and options to purchase an aggregate of 135,500 shares outstanding as of April 29, 2023. In addition to the 2018 Plan, we previously granted equity awards under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”) and our 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”). No new awards may be issued under either the 2007 Plan or 2015 Plan, but outstanding awards will continue to be governed by those plans. As of April 29, 2023, options to purchase an aggregate of 270,649 shares were outstanding under the 2007 Plan and options to purchase an aggregate of 134,950 shares were outstanding under the 2015 Plan. We also have a Non-Employee Director Annual Compensation Program (the “Program”), under which each of our non-employee directors automatically receives a grant of restricted stock on the date of their re-election to our board of directors. The number of whole shares granted is equal to the number calculated by dividing the stock component of the director compensation amount determined by the compensation committee for that year by the fair market value of our stock on that day. The value of the restricted stock award for fiscal 2024 is approximately $65,000. Shares of restricted stock granted under the Program become vested on the first anniversary of the date of grant, conditioned upon the recipient’s continued service on our board of directors through that date. Share-based compensation expense was recognized as follows:

Employee Stock Purchase Plan On June 7, 2022, we adopted the AstroNova Inc. 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2022 ESPP”) to replace our previous Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Prior ESPP”). The 2022 ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of common stock at a 15% discount from fair value on the first or last day of an offering period, whichever is less. A total of 40,000 shares were reserved for issuance under the 2022 ESPP and 5,045 shares were purchased under the 2022 ES P P during the year ended January 31, 2023. During the three months ended April 29, 2023, there were 2,394 shares purchased under the 2022 ESPP. During the three months ended April 30, 2022, there were 1,550 shares purchased under the Prior ESPP, and no additional purchases may be made under the Prior ESPP. As of April 29, 2023, 32,560 shares remain available for purchase under the 2022 ESPP.
