Stock-Based Compensation

7.  Stock-Based Compensation 

 

We grant stock-based compensation awards to employees and non-employee directors under our equity compensation plan.  On May 18, 2012, our stockholders approved the J. C. Penney Company, Inc. 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (2012 Plan), reserving 7 million shares for future grants (1.5 million newly authorized shares plus up to 5.5 million reserved but unissued shares from our prior 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan (2009 Plan)).  In addition, shares underlying any outstanding stock award or stock option grant cancelled prior to vesting or exercise become available for use under the 2012 Plan.  The 2009 Plan terminated on May 18, 2012, except for outstanding awards, and all subsequent awards have been granted under the 2012 Plan.  As of August 3, 2013, there were approximately 5 million shares of stock available for future grant under the 2012 Plan.

        

On March 4, 2013, we granted off-cycle awards to employees consisting of approximately 70,000 stock options at an option price of $16.74 and a fair value of $7.88 per option and approximately 94,000 time-based restricted stock units (RSU’s) with a fair value of $16.74 per RSU award.

  

On April 3, 2013, we made an annual grant to employees consisting of approximately 3.3 million stock options at an option price of $14.43 and a fair value of $7.07 per option, approximately 621,000 RSU’s with a fair value of $14.43 per RSU award and approximately 998,000 performance-based restricted stock units (PBRSU’s) with a fair value of $14.43 per PBRSU award.    The number of PBRSUs that ultimately vest is dependent on the achievement of a 2013 internal profitability target (performance condition).

 

During the second quarter of 2013, we granted approximately 74,000 stock options to employees at an option price of $18.98 and a fair value of $9.35 per option.  Additionally, we granted approximately 77,000 time-based RSUs to employees with a fair value of $18.98 per RSU award as well as 64,000 RSUs to directors with a fair value of $18.72 per RSU award.
