Stock Options and Other Share-Based Compensation

Note B Stock Options and Other Share-Based Compensation

 

During the quarter ended October 2, 2015, we had one shareholder-approved employee stock incentive plan (“SIP”), the Harris Corporation 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (As Amended and Restated Effective August 27, 2010), under which options or other share-based compensation was outstanding, and we have granted the following types of share-based awards under our SIP: stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance share awards, performance share unit awards and awards of immediately vested shares of our common stock. We believe that such awards more closely align the interests of employees with those of shareholders. Certain share-based awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined under our SIP). The compensation cost related to our share-based awards that was charged against income was $10 million and $8 million for the quarters ended October 2, 2015 and September 26, 2014, respectively.

 

Grants to employees under our SIP during the quarter ended October 2, 2015 consisted of 1,647,890 stock options, 66,670 restricted stock awards and 282,595 performance share unit awards. The fair value as of the grant date of each option award was determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, which used the following assumptions: expected dividend yield of 2.50 percent; expected volatility of 23.01 percent; risk-free interest rates averaging 1.52 percent; and expected term in years of 5.05. The fair value as of the grant date of each restricted stock award was based on the closing price of our common stock on the grant date. The fair value as of the grant date of each performance share unit award was determined based on a fair value from a multifactor Monte Carlo valuation model that simulates our stock price and total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to other companies in our TSR peer group, less a discount to reflect the delay in payments of cash dividend-equivalents that are made only upon vesting.
