Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] |
Share-Based Compensation | Note 9. Share-Based Compensation Prior to November 27, 2013, Vince Holding Corp. did not have convertible equity or convertible debt securities, any of which could result in share-based compensation expense. In connection with the IPO, which closed on November 27, 2013, and the separation of the Vince and non-Vince businesses, VHC assumed Kellwood Company’s remaining obligations under the 2010 Stock Option Plan of Kellwood Company (the “2010 Option Plan”) and all Kellwood Company stock options previously issued to Vince employees under such plan became options to acquire shares of VHC common stock. Additionally, VHC assumed Kellwood Company’s obligations with respect to the vested Kellwood Company stock options previously issued to Kellwood Company employees, which options were cancelled in exchange for shares of VHC common stock. Accordingly, option information presented below for previously issued Kellwood Company stock options under the 2010 Option Plan has been adjusted to account for the split of the Company’s common stock and applicable conversion to options to acquire shares of Vince Holding Corp. common stock. Employee Stock Plans 2010 Option Plan Kellwood Company had convertible equity securities that result in recognition of share-based compensation expense. On June 30, 2010, the board of directors approved the 2010 Stock Option Plan. On November 21, 2013 and as discussed above, VHC assumed Kellwood Company’s remaining obligations under the 2010 Option Plan; provided, that none of the issued and outstanding options (after giving effect to such assumption and the stock split effected as part of the Restructuring Transactions) were exercisable until the consummation of the IPO. Additionally, prior to the consummation of the IPO and after giving effect to the assumption described in this paragraph, VHC and the Vince employees to whom options had been previously granted under the 2010 Option Plan, amended the related grant agreements to eliminate, effective as of the consummation of the IPO, restrictions on the exercisability of the subject employees vested options. Prior to the IPO, the 2010 Option Plan, as amended, provided for the grant of options to acquire up to 2,752,155 shares of Kellwood Company common stock. The options granted pursuant to the 2010 Option Plan (i) vest in five equal installments on the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth anniversary of the grant date, subject to the employee’s continued employment and, (ii) expire on the earlier of the tenth anniversary of the grant date or upon termination of employment. We will not grant any future awards under the 2010 Option Plan. Future awards shall be granted under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan described further below. Vince 2013 Incentive Plan In connection with the IPO, the Company adopted the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan, which provides for grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and other stock-based awards. The aggregate number of shares of common stock which may be issued or used for reference purposes under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan or with respect to which awards may be granted may not exceed 3,400,000 shares. The shares available for issuance under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan may be, in whole or in part, either authorized and unissued shares of our common stock or shares of common stock held in or acquired for our treasury. In general, if awards under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan are for any reason cancelled, or expire or terminate unexercised, the shares covered by such award may again be available for the grant of awards under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan. As of January 31, 2015, there were 2,514,959 shares under the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan available for future grants. Options granted pursuant to the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan (i) vest in equal installments over three or four years or at 33 1/3% per year beginning in year two, over four years, subject to the employees’ continued employment and (ii) expire on the earlier of the tenth anniversary of the grant date or upon termination as outlined in the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan. Stock Options A summary of stock option activity for fiscal 2014 is as follows:
|  | Stock Options |  |  | Weighted Average Exercise Price |  |  | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years) |  |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value |
Outstanding at February 1, 2014 |  |  | 2,289,530 |  |  | $ | 8.26 |  |  |  | 8.8 |  |  |  |  |
Granted |  |  | 577,437 |  |  | $ | 32.82 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Exercised |  |  | (22,018 | ) |  | $ | 7.99 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Forfeited or expired |  |  | (118,780 | ) |  | $ | 14.88 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Outstanding at January 31, 2015 |  |  | 2,726,169 |  |  | $ | 13.18 |  |  |  | 8.2 |  |  | $ | 33,367 |
Vested or expected to vest at January 31, 2015 |  |  | 2,726,169 |  |  | $ | 13.18 |  |  |  | 8.2 |  |  | $ | 33,367 |
Vested and exercisable at January 31, 2015 |  |  | 653,861 |  |  | $ | 6.35 |  |  |  | 7.5 |  |  | $ | 11,181 |
The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of fiscal 2014 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of such in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all options holders exercised their options on January 31, 2015. This amount changes based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. Total intrinsic value of options exercised during fiscal 2014 (based on the differences between the Company’s stock price on the respective exercise date and the respective exercise price, multiplied by the number of respective options exercised) was $620. The Company’s weighted average assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options granted on November 21, 2013 in connection with our IPO and the options granted during fiscal 2014 were estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model and were as follows. Expected term of 4.5 years, expected volatility of 51.1%, risk-free interest rate of 1.4% and expected dividend yield of 0.0%. Due to the limited trading history of the Company’s common stock, the volatility and expected term assumptions used were based on averages from a peer group of publicly traded retailers. The risk-free interest rate was based upon the U.S. Treasury five year yield curve. Based on these assumptions used, the weighted average grant date fair value for options granted during fiscal 2014 and for the options granted on November 21, 2013 in connection with our IPO was $14.13 per share and $8.82 per share, respectively. The fair value of stock options granted in fiscal 2012 through October 2013 was determined at the grant date using a Black-Scholes option valuation model, which requires us to make several significant assumptions including risk-free interest rate, volatility, expected term, and discount factors for shareholders in a privately-held company. The estimated term of 6.5 years for these options was developed using a simplified method permitted by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 14: Share-Based Payment, available for companies with “plain-vanilla” options and have limited historical exercise data. Our selected volatility rate of 55.0% was estimated using both: (i) volatility reported by companies comparable to Kellwood Company with publicly-traded stock, and (ii) calculated volatility of companies comparable to Kellwood Company with publicly-traded stock using historical stock prices. We applied a cumulative discount factor to the price per share of 36.25% to adjust for the lack of marketability of the shares, as well as the impact of the shares representing a minority interest in a privately-held company. Our estimates were developed using market data for companies comparable to Kellwood Company and empirical studies regarding the impact on the value of private-company shares resulting from transfer restrictions. Finally, the risk-free rate of 0.85% is based upon the U.S. Treasury five year yield curve. At January 31, 2015 there was $11,504 of unrecognized compensation costs related to stock options that will be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 3.3 years. Restricted Stock Units A summary of restricted stock unit activity for fiscal 2014 is as follows:
|  | Restricted Stock Units |  |  | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value |
Nonvested restricted stock units at February 1, 2014 |  |  | 7,500 |  |  | $ | 20.00 |
Granted |  |  | 7,384 |  |  | $ | 30.47 |
Vested |  |  | (2,500 | ) |  | $ | 20.00 |
Forfeited |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |
Nonvested restricted stock units at January 31, 2015 |  |  | 12,384 |  |  | $ | 26.24 |
The fair value of restricted stock units is based on the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of the grant and is amortized to compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally over a three year vesting period, subject to continued service and applicable conditions of the Vince 2013 Incentive Plan. At January 31, 2015 there was $289 of unrecognized compensation costs related to restricted stock units that will be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 2.4 years. Share-Based Compensation Expense Share-based compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period of the each share-based payment award and the expense is included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. During fiscal 2014 we recognized share-based compensation expense of $1,896 and a related tax benefit of approximately $758. During fiscal 2013, from our IPO through the end of the fiscal year, we recognized share-based compensation expense of $347 and a related tax benefit of approximately $139. During fiscal year 2013, from the beginning of the fiscal year through our IPO date, and in fiscal 2012 we recognized share-based compensation expense of $551 and $367, respectively, which was included in net loss from discontinued operations as such expense was a component of the non-Vince businesses which were separated from the Vince business on November 27, 2013. In addition, as a result of the deferred tax valuation allowance during these periods, the Company did not recognize the related tax benefit on the share-based compensation expense.
