Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Employee Benefit and Stock Compensation Plans | EMPLOYEE BENEFIT AND STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS Savings Incentive Plan. Carver has a savings incentive plan, pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Code, for all eligible employees of the Bank. The Bank matches contributions to the 401(k) Plan equal to 100% of pre-tax contributions made by each employee up to a maximum of 4% of their pay, subject to IRS limitations. All such matching contributions are fully vested and non-forfeitable at all times regardless of the years of service with the Bank. Compensation expense recognized for the 401(k) matching contributions was $305 thousand and $330 thousand, respectively, for fiscal 2025 and 2024. Stock Option Plans. In September 2014, Carver stockholders approved the Carver Bancorp, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2014 Incentive Plan") which provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock to executive officers and directors who are selected to receive awards by the Committee. The 2014 Incentive Plan authorizes Carver to grant awards with respect to 250,000 shares. All of the shares may be issued pursuant to stock options (all of which may be incentive stock options) or all of which may be issued pursuant to restricted stock awards or restricted stock units. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the award agreements will specify that no award will vest more rapidly than 25% per year over a four-year period, with the first installment vesting one year after the date of grant, subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of specific events. There were 83,000 restricted stock awards issued in fiscal year 2024. At March 31, 2025, there were 6,267 options outstanding under the 2014 Incentive Plan and 6,267 were exercisable. All options are exercisable i mmediately upon a participant's disability, death or change in control, as defined in the 2014 Incentive Plan, if the person is employed on that date. If the person is terminated (voluntary or involuntarily) from the Bank, all unvested shares are forfeited. Pursuant to the plan, the Bank recognized $26 thousand as expense for fiscal year 2025 and $68 thousand in fiscal year 2024. In December 2024, Carver stockholders approved the Carver Bancorp, Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2024 Incentive Plan") which provides for discretionary option grants, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock to executive officers, employees and directors who are selected to receive awards by the Committee. The 2024 Incentive Plan authorizes Carver to grant awards with respect to 350,000 shares.
