Share Usage
We are committed to sound equity compensation practices because we recognize that equity compensation awards dilute stockholder equity. Our equity compensation practices are intended to be competitive and consistent with market practices, and we believe our historical share usage has been responsible and mindful of stockholder interests.
Set forth below is information regarding shares currently outstanding under the 2020 Plan and prior plans. The information set forth below reflects theone-for-three reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock effected on April 4, 2022, as well as the adjustments made to preserve the aggregate intrinsic value of the outstanding awards following thespin-off of ESAB Corporation from the Company. The Company made its annual award grant to employees in March 2024 and those awards are included in the data below. The 2020 Plan is the sole equity compensation plan under which future awards can be made.
Selected Data as of March 25, 2024:
| Stock options / SARs outstanding | 1,387,937 |
|---|---|
| Weighted average exercise price | $59.14 |
| Weighted average remaining contractual life | 3.23 years |
| Restricted stock units outstanding (unvested) | 875,661 |
| Performance-based restricted stock units outstanding (unvested) | 497,330 |
| Shares remaining for grant under the 2020 Plan | 427,057 |
| Shares of Common Stock Outstanding as of the Record Date | 54,840,388 |
For purposes of evaluating our equity compensation program, stockholders may wish to consider two metrics: historical burn rate and overhang.
| ∎ | Historical burn rate: Our historical burn rate is equal to the number of shares subject to equity awards granted during a period, in proportion to the weighted average number of outstanding shares for such period. The following table sets forth information regarding historical equity awards granted during fiscal years 2023, 2022 and 2021, the corresponding burn rate for each fiscal year, and the three-year average burn rate for 2021 through 2023: |
|---|
| 2023 | 2022 | 2021 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding | 54,494,823 | 54,065,420 | 51,141,210 |
| Number of options granted | 222,707 | 154,552 | 282,119 |
| Number of restricted stock units granted | 303,350 | 306,130 | 377,545 |
| Number of performance-based restricted stock units granted | 242,704 | 95,847 | 96,052 |
| Number of performance-based restricted stock units earned and vested | 0 | 0 | 96,052 |
| Annual burn rate | 1.41% | 1.03% | 1.48% |
| Three-year average burn rate | 1.31% |
| ∎ | Overhang: Our overhang is the number of shares subject to unvested equity awards outstanding as of March 25, 2024 plus the number of shares available for future grants of equity awards in proportion to our shares outstanding as of that date. As of March 25, 2024, our overhang was 5.8%. |

The Amended 2020 Plan is not a fungible plan and does not use a fungible share pool.

More detail regarding the overhang and dilution associated with the current 2020 Plan, the Amendment, and our prior plans is below. The information is as of March 25, 2024. As of that date, there were 54,840,388 shares of our common stock outstanding.
| Outstanding full-value awards assuming that the outstanding awards achieve maximum performance under the 2020 Plan and prior plans | 1,372,991 shares or 2.5% of our outstanding shares |
|---|---|
| Number of shares subject to outstanding stock options under the 2020 Plan and prior plans | 1,387,937 shares or 2.53% of ouroutstanding shares |
| Total shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2020 Plan and prior plans | 2,760,928 shares or 5.03% of ouroutstanding shares |
| Current overhang percentage based on total number of shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2020 Plan and prior plans | 5.8% |
| New shares being authorized under the Amendment | 2,100,000 |
| Potential dilution (of 2,100,000 additional shares) as a percentage of outstanding shares | 3.8% |
| Total potential fully-diluted overhang under the 2020 Plan and prior plans | 9.6% |
Based on the closing price on the NYSE for our shares of common stock on March 25, 2024 of $60.28 per share, the aggregate market value as of that date of the 2,100,000 additional shares of common stock requested for issuance under the Amendment is $126,588,000.
If the Amendment is approved, the Company’s total potential dilution from the shares available for issuance under the 2020 Plan would increase from 5.8% as of March 25, 2024 to 9.6%. The CHCM Committee has considered this potential dilution level and believes that the resulting dilution levels would be within normal competitive ranges.
In determining the number of additional shares to request for approval by our stockholders under the Amendment, our management team worked with advisors and the CHCM Committee to evaluate a number of factors including our recent share usage and criteria expected to be utilized by institutional proxy advisory firms in evaluating this proposal. We are also mindful of the ratio of our stock-based compensation to our performance over time. In addition, the CHCM Committee also reviewed, among other things, projected future share usage and projected future forfeitures. Subject to assumptions, the Committee currently anticipates that the proposed additional shares of common stock under the Amendment are expected to satisfy the Company’s equity compensation needs for approximately 3 years. Expectations regarding future share usage could be impacted by a number of factors such as award type mix; hiring and promotion activity at the executive level; the rate at which shares are returned to the 2020 Plan’s reserve under permitted addbacks; the future performance of our stock price; the consequences of acquiring other companies; and other factors. While we believe that the assumptions we used are reasonable, future share usage may differ from current expectations.
If the Amendment is approved, we intend to utilize the additional shares authorized under the Amendment to continue our practice of incentivizing key individuals through annual equity grants. Our CHCM Committee retains full discretion under the 2020 Plan to determine the number and amount of awards to be granted under the 2020 Plan, subject to the terms of the 2020 Plan, and future benefits that may be received by participants under the 2020 Plan are not determinable at this time.
Adjustment of Shares Subject to 2020 Plan. In the event of an equity restructuring, including any stock dividend, stock split, spin-off, rights offering, or large nonrecurring cash dividend, the authorization limits regarding the number of shares under this plan, the maximum number of shares of stock that may be issued under Incentive Stock Options and the maximum amount of stock issued under Awards shall be adjusted proportionately, and the Committee shall make such adjustments to the 2020 Plan and the outstanding awards as it deems necessary and appropriate, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of benefits or potential benefits. In addition, upon the occurrence or in anticipation of a share combination, merger, consolidate or other corporate transaction, including those in which adjustments are mandatory, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, vest, equitably convert, substitute or otherwise settle outstanding awards.
Change in Control. Under the 2020 Plan, a “Change in Control” generally means the occurrence of any of the following events: (1) acquisition of beneficial ownership of more than 50% of (A) the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company or (B) the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities entitled to vote in director elections; (2) individuals constituting the Board as of the date of the 2020 Plan ceasing to continue to constitute at least a majority of the Board, unless election or nomination of such director was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors constituting the incumbent board; (3) the closing of a reorganization, merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or (4) approval by the stockholders of the Company of a complete liquidation of dissolution of the Company. The CHCM Committee may specify in an award agreement the treatment of that award in the event of a Change in Control.
