3 Months Ended

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

In connection with our initial public offering, the Board of Directors adopted the 2005 Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which provides for grants of up to a maximum of 5.0 million shares of restricted stock, stock options, RSUs and other equity-based awards. In June 2014, the Board of Directors approved, and in July 2014, our stockholders ratified, an increase of an additional 1.8 million shares of our common stock for issuance under the Plan, an increase of the maximum number of shares subject to stock options that may be awarded to any one participant under the Plan during any fiscal 12-month period from 1.0 million to 2.5 million shares, and an extension of the term of the Plan by ten years, to February 2025. Directors, officers and other employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as others performing services for the Company, are eligible for grants under the Plan.

On June 23, 2020, the Board of Directors adopted the Prestige Consumer Healthcare Inc. 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”). The 2020 Plan became effective on August 4, 2020, upon the approval of the 2020 Plan by our stockholders. A total of 2,827,210 shares are available for issuance under the 2020 Plan (comprised of 2,000,000 new shares plus 827,210 shares that were unissued under the Plan). All future equity awards will be made from the 2020 Plan, and the Company will not grant any additional awards under the Plan.

The following table provides information regarding our stock-based compensation:


	Three Months Ended June 30,
(In thousands)	2020		2019
Pre-tax share-based compensation costs charged against income	$	1,464	$	1,381
Income tax benefit recognized on compensation costs	$	112	$	210
Total fair value of options and RSUs vested during the period	$	5,781	$	6,099
Tax benefits realized from tax deductions resulting from RSU issuances and stock option exercises	$	944	$	434

At June 30, 2020, there were $11.7 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements under the Plan, based on management's estimate of the shares that will ultimately vest. We expect to recognize

such costs over a weighted average period of 1.1 years. At June 30, 2020, there were 1.1 million shares available for issuance under the Plan.

On May 4, 2020, the Compensation and Talent Management Committee (the "Committee") of our Board of Directors granted 79,070 performance stock units, 73,636 RSUs and stock options to acquire 249,875 shares of our common stock under the Plan to certain executive officers and employees. Performance units are earned based on achievement of the performance objectives set by the Committee and, if earned, vest in their entirety on the three-year anniversary of the date of grant. In light of the uncertain economic environment, the Committee elected to set the performance objectives applicable to these awards at a later date. The stock options were granted at an exercise price of $39.98 per share, which was equal to the closing price for our common stock on the date of the grant.

A newly appointed independent member of the Board of Directors received a grant under the Plan of 907 RSUs on May 4, 2020.

Restricted Stock Units

The fair value of the RSUs is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the date of the grant.
