Performance based RSUs (“PRSU”)

In February 2019, the Company granted PRSUs to key executives of the Company. The performance equity program has a 2-year performance period measuring target revenue compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) achievement for fiscal year 2020 compared to fiscal year 2018. There is a minimum performance threshold of 75% to earn 50% of target, and a maximum threshold of 125% achieved to earn 200% of target. The exact number of earned shares will be determined based on linear interpolation using the actual revenue CAGR as it falls between the minimum and maximum thresholds outlined above. The fair value of the PRSUs will be up to $18.5 million, depending on the actual achievement relative to the performance target. Based on management’s assessment at September 30, 2019 of the Company’s achievement of its performance targets, the Company has determined that it is probable that the performance targets will be achieved. As of September 30, 2019, management believes that it will achieve its performance targets at the 134% level, and has recognized cumulative PRSU expense of $3.3 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
