Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based Compensation
As of June 29, 2014, the Company had five equity plans. Additional information regarding these plans is disclosed in the Annual Report.
Stock-based compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period for each stock option or restricted stock unit ("RSU") grant that is expected to vest at some point in the future. Forfeitures are estimated at the date of grant based on the Company's historical experience and future expectations.
The fair value of each stock option on the date of grant is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model. The fair value of each RSU is based on the Fair Market Value (as defined in the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan) of the Company's common stock on the date of the grant.
The following weighted average assumptions were used for the valuation of stock options granted during the periods presented:
