Shares issued under our share-based compensation plans are usually issued from shares of our common stock held in the treasury.
The fair value of employee share options is recognized in expense over the vesting period of the options, using the graded attribution
method. The fair value of employee share options is determined on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The
Company has used historical volatility in its estimate of expected volatility. The expected life represents the period of time (in years) for
which the options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve.
Compensation cost related to non-qualified stock options recognized in operating results (selling, general and administrative expense) for
2010, 2009 and 2008 was $1.5 million, $2.2 million, and $3.2 million respectively. The related future income tax benefits recognized for
2010, 2009 and 2008 were $0.6 million, $0.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
Stock options
The following table presents the weighted-average assumptions used to estimate the fair value of options granted in 2010, 2009 and 2008:
The following table summarizes information concerning outstanding and exercisable options:
The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $3.2 million, $2.0 million and $4.1 million respectively, for 2010, 2009 and 2008.
The following table summarizes information about options vested and exercisable or nonvested that are expected to vest (nonvested
outstanding less expected forfeitures) at December 31, 2010:
The aggregate intrinsic value in the tables above represents the total pretax intrinsic value (the difference between the closing stock price
on the last day of trading in 2010 and the exercise price) that would have been received by the option holders had all options been
exercised on December 31, 2010. This value will change based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock.
