Performance Share Awards
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, pursuant to the Company's 2020 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan, the Company granted performance share awards with a total shareholder return multiplier. These performance awards are earned based upon achievement, over a specified period that must not be less than one year and is typically a three-year performance period, of performance goals related to (i) net revenue growth and (ii) net adjusted EBITDA margin over the performance period as determined by the Company with a TSR multiplier up to plus or minus 20%. Up to 200% of the performance shares could be earned upon achievement of the performance goals, including the multiplier. On a quarterly basis, management evaluates the probability that the threshold performance goals will be achieved, if at all, and the anticipated level of attainment to determine the amount of compensation expense to record in the consolidated financial statements.
A summary of nonvested total shareholder return awards ("TSRs") is as follows:
