Shareholders' Equity |
Shareholders' Equity | 5. Shareholders’ Equity. Stock-Based Compensation. The Company’s stock-based compensation plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which selects persons to receive awards and determines the number of shares subject to each award and the terms, conditions, performance measures and other provisions of the award. The following table summarizes the stock-based compensation expense which was recognized in the Company’s Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012:
Year ended December 31 |  | 2013 |  | 2012 |
Cost of sales |  | $ | 22,000 |  | $ | 93,000 |
Selling |  | 176,000 |  | 104,000 |
Marketing |  | 16,000 |  | 18,000 |
General and administrative |  | 319,000 |  | 127,000 |
|  | $ | 533,000 |  | $ | 342,000 |
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate fair value of stock-based awards with the following weighted average assumptions:
|  | 2013 |  | 2012 |
Stock Options: |  |  |  |  |
Expected life (years) |  | 3.9 |  | 4.2 |
Expected volatility |  | 52 | % | 71 | %
Dividend yield |  | 0 | % | 0 | %
Risk-free interest rate |  | 1.2 | % | 0.6 | %
|  | 2013 |  | 2012 |
Stock Purchase Plan Options: |  |  |  |  |
Expected life (years) |  | 1.0 |  | 1.0 |
Expected volatility |  | 51 | % | 46 | %
Dividend yield |  | 0 | % | 0 | %
Risk-free interest rate |  | 0.2 | % | 0.1 | %
The Company uses the straight-line attribution method to recognize expense for unvested options. The amount of stock-based compensation recognized during a period is based on the value of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company re-evaluates the forfeiture rate annually and adjusts it as necessary. As of December 31, 2013, there was approximately $296,000 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to the outstanding stock options which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years. Stock Options. Prior to 2013, the Company had stock options plans (the “1990 Plan” and the “2003 Plan”) for its employees and directors under which substantially all of the shares reserved for issuance had been issued. In May 2013, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2013 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”), which replaced the 2003 Plan. Options granted under the 2003 Plan will remain in effect until they are exercised or expire according to their terms. There are no options outstanding in the 1990 Plan. All current option grants are made under the 2013 Plan. Under the terms of the 2013 Plan, the Company may grant up to 250,000 awards in a variety of instruments including incentive or non-qualified stock options to employees, consultants and directors generally at an exercise price at or above 100% of fair market value at the close of business on the date of grant. Stock options expire 10 years after the date of grant and generally vest over three years. The Company issues new shares of common stock when stock options are exercised. The following table summarizes activity under the option plans:
