Stock Options
During the first nine months of 2022, the Company granted stock options
 
under its long-term incentive plan (“LTIP”)
 
that are
subject only to time vesting over a
three year
 
period.
 
For the purposes of determining the fair value of stock option awards, the
Company used a Black-Scholes option pricing model and the assumptions set forth
 
in the table below:
March 2022
July 2022
Grant

The fair value of these options is amortized on a straight-line basis over the
 
vesting period.
 
As of September 30, 2022,
unrecognized compensation expense related to all stock options granted was $
2.0
 
million, to be recognized over a weighted average
remaining period of
1.5
 
years.
Restricted Stock Awards
 
and Restricted Stock Units
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company granted
35,846
 
non-vested restricted shares and
4,490
 
non-
vested restricted stock units under its LTIP,
 
which are subject to time-based vesting, generally over a
three year
 
period.
 
The fair value
of these grants is based on the trading price of the Company’s
 
common stock on the date of grant.
 
The Company adjusts the grant
date fair value of these awards for expected forfeitures based on historical experience.
 
As of September 30, 2022, unrecognized
compensation expense related to the non-vested restricted
 
shares was $
5.9
 
million, to be recognized over a weighted average
remaining period of
1.6
 
years, and unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested restricted
 
stock units was $
1.0
 
million,
to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of
1.9
 
years.
Performance Stock Units
The Company grants performance-dependent stock awards (“PSUs”) as a component
 
of its LTIP,
 
which will be settled in a
certain number of shares subject to market-based and time-based vesting conditions.
 
The number of fully vested shares that may
ultimately be issued as settlement for each award may range from
0
% up to
200
% of the target award, subject to the achievement of
the Company’s total shareholder
 
return (“TSR”) relative to the performance of the Company’s
 
peer group, the S&P Midcap 400
Materials group.
 
The service period required for the PSUs is three years and the TSR measurement
 
period for the PSUs is generally
from January 1 of the year of grant through December 31 of the year prior
 
to issuance of the shares upon settlement.
Compensation expense for PSUs is measured based on their grant date fair value
 
and is recognized on a straight-line basis over
the three year vesting period.
 
The grant-date fair value of the PSUs was estimated using a Monte Carlo
 
simulation on the grant date
and using the following assumptions set forth in the table below:
2022
Grants
Number of PSUs granted
18,462
Risk-free interest rate
2.11
%
Dividend yield
0.93
%
Expected term (years)
3.0
As of September 30, 2022, based on the conditions of the PSUs and performance
 
to date for each award, the Company estimates
that it will
no
t issue any fully vested shares as of the applicable settlement date of all outstanding
 
PSUs awards.
 
As of September 30,
2022, there was approximately $
4.8
 
million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to PSUs which the Company
 
expects to
recognize over a weighted-average period of
2.0
 
years.
Defined Contribution Plan
 
The Company has a 401(k) plan with an employer match covering a majority
 
of its U.S. employees.
 
The Company matches
50
%
of the first
6
% of compensation that is contributed to the plan, with a maximum matching contribution of
3
% of compensation.
 
Additionally, the plan
 
provides for non-elective nondiscretionary contributions on behalf of participants
 
who have completed one year
of service equal to
3
% of the eligible participants’ compensation.
 
Beginning in April 2020 and continuing through March 2021, the
Company matched both non-elective and elective 401(k) contributions
 
in fully vested shares of the Company’s common
 
stock rather
than cash.
 
There were
no
 
matching contributions in stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.
 
For the nine
months ended September 30, 2021, total contributions were $
1.5
 
million.
