During the year ended December 31, 2024, QVC employees and officers were granted 35 million of combined performance and time based, cash-settled RSUs. These RSUs vest over three years. The performance based cash settled RSU's are also subject to the satisfaction of certain performance objectives. The liability and compensation expense related to such awards is adjusted at the end of each reporting period based on the closing market price of QVCGA on the last trading day of the quarter combined with the probability of satisfying the performance objectives. For awards that are performance-based, performance objectives, which are subjective, are considered in determining the timing and amount of compensation expense recognized. When the satisfaction of the performance objectives becomes probable, the Company records compensation expense. The probability of satisfying the performance objectives is assessed at the end of each reporting period. During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded $18 million, $32 million and $27 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense related to these awards. As of December 31, 2024, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs of common stock and cash settled RSUs was $8 million. Such amount will be recognized in the Company's consolidated statement of operations over a weighted average period of 1.9 years. Fair value of RSUs is calculated based on the market price on the day the shares are granted. The weighted average grant date fair value of the QVCGA RSUs granted to QVC employees and officers during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $1.23, $1.27, and $3.71, respectively. The aggregate fair value of all RSUs of common stock that vested during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 was $23 million, $31 million and $13 million, respectively.
