Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]

Share-Based Compensation

(7) Share-Based Compensation

We follow FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, in which compensation expense is recognized only for share-based payments expected to vest. We recognized compensation expense related to stock options of $46 and $94 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, compared to $41 and $88 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively.

As of June 30, 2017, there was approximately $362 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under our stock option plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 1.9 years.
