(5)        Share-Based Payments

 

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company provides an estimate of forfeitures at initial grant date. Reductions in compensation expense associated with the forfeited options are estimated at the date of grant, and this estimated forfeiture rate is adjusted periodically based on actual forfeiture experience. The company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the stock options granted.

 

During the quarters ended March 28, 2020 and March 30, 2019 a total of 59,000 and 79,000 stock options, respectively, were granted to employees under the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan and 2009 Stock Incentive Plan, respectively (collectively the “Plan”) and a total of 60,000 and 45,000 stock options, respectively, were granted to outside directors during the quarters ended March 28, 2020 and March 30, 2019

 

During the quarter ended March 28, 2020 there were no shares issued and during the quarter ended March 30, 2019 there were 1,500 shares issued.  

 

As of March 28, 2020, there was $198 thousand of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan; that cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.47 years.

 

During the quarters ended March 28, 2020 and March 30, 2019, the Company recognized approximately $66 thousand and $59 thousand, respectively, as shared-based compensation expense related to previously granted shares under the Plan.
