Stock-Based Compensation Plans Stock-Based Compensation Plans
Teledyne has long-term incentive plans pursuant to which it has granted non-qualified stock options, restricted stock and performance shares to certain employees. The Company also has non-employee Board of Director stock compensation plans, pursuant to which common stock, stock options and restricted stock units have been issued to its directors.
Stock Incentive Plan
Stock option compensation expense was $5.8 million for the second quarter of 2019 and was $5.4 million for the second quarter of 2018. Stock option compensation expense was $14.7 million for the first six months of 2019 and was $10.3 million for the first six months of 2018. Employee stock option grants are charged to expense evenly over the three year vesting period except for stock options that were granted in January 2019 to Teledyne’s President and Chief Executive Officer and Teledyne’s Executive Chairman which were expensed immediately. For 2019, the Company currently expects approximately $26.5 million in stock option compensation expense based on stock options currently outstanding. This amount can be impacted by employee retirements and terminations or stock options granted during the remainder of the year. The Company issues shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options.
The following assumptions were used in the valuation of stock options granted in 2019:
 
2019
Expected volatility
26.7%
Risk-free interest rate range
2.47% to 2.70%
