7. Stock-Based Compensation Plans

 

Stock options are granted with exercise prices not less than the fair market value of our common stock at the time of the grant, with an exercise term as determined by the Committee administering the applicable option plan (the "Committee") not to exceed 10 years. The Committee determines the vesting period for the Company's stock options. Generally, such stock options have vesting periods of immediate to four years. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting upon meeting specific retirement, death or disability criteria, and upon change of control. During the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company granted options to purchase 233,750 and 294,500 shares of the Company's common stock, respectively.

 

Compensation expense is recognized in the general and administrative expenses line item of the Company's statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods. There are no capitalized stock-based compensation costs at June 30, 2012 and 2011. As of June 30, 2012, there was approximately $698,820 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years.

  

Cash received from the exercise of stock options for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $3,187 and $0, respectively. Cash flows from tax benefits attributable to tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) are classified as financing cash flows.

 

The weighted average fair value at date of grant for options granted during the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $1.75 and $1.61 per share, respectively. The fair value of options at date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model utilizing the following assumptions:

 

    2012     2011  
Risk-free interest rates     3.4 %     4.1 %
Expected option life in years     6.5       6.5  
Expected stock price volatility     75.44 %     77.88 %
Expected dividend yield     0 %     0 %

 

The risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant. The expected option term is based upon the number of years the company estimates the option will be outstanding. The expected dividend yield is based upon historical and projected dividends. The Company estimates volatility based upon historical price changes of the Company’s stock over a period equal to that of the expected life of the option.
