Employee and Non-Employee Benefit Plans

Share-Based Compensation Plans.  The Company’s share-based compensation plans provide for the awarding of stock options, stock appreciation rights, shares of restricted stock, and RSUs for senior executives and other employees, as well as non-employee directors. The Company currently has two active equity-based compensation plans: the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2014 Plan”) and the 2014 Non-Employee Director Equity Incentive Plan (the “Directors’ Plan”).

As of June 30, 2023, 658,081 RSUs had been granted from the 1,500,000 shares approved under the 2014 Plan, and 137,840 shares had been granted from the 300,000 shares approved under the Directors’ Plan. As of June 30, 2023, there were 226,684 unvested RSUs under the Company’s long-term incentive plans, all of which were participating securities (see Note 7).

Deferred Compensation Plan. The Company established an unfunded Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the “EDC Plan”) effective June 30, 2018, with a purpose to attract and retain highly-compensated key employees by providing participants with an opportunity to defer receipt of a portion of their salary, bonus, and other specified compensation. The Company’s obligations under the EDC Plan change in conjunction with the performance of the participants’ investments, along with contributions to and withdrawals from the EDC Plan. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on deferred compensation plan investments were included as a component of other income (expense), net on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. For the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2023, the Company had a gain on deferred compensation plan investments of $211 and $390, respectively, and for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2022, the Company had a loss on deferred compensation plan investments of $489 and $828, respectively.

EDC Plan investments are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since the investments trade with sufficient frequency and volume to enable the Company to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis. Participants were able to direct the deferral of a portion of their base salary and a portion of their estimated accrued short-term incentive plan (“STI Plan”) amounts that were paid during the first quarter of the following year. Base salary amounts elected for deferral are deposited into the EDC Plan by the Company on a weekly basis and allocated by participants among Company-determined investment options. STI Plan deferral amounts are deposited, at the time of payment, into the EDC Plan by the Company and allocated by participants among Company-determined investment options.

At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the EDC Plan investments were $2,979 and $2,176, respectively, which were recorded in other assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The EDC Plan current liabilities were $650 and $510 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which were included in accrued expenses and other on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The EDC Plan non-current liabilities were $2,621 and $2,191 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and were included in other noncurrent liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
