STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Spin-Off of Jeans Business
In connection with the spin-off of the Jeans business on May 22, 2019, the Company adjusted its outstanding equity awards in accordance with the terms of the Employee Matters Agreement between the Company and Kontoor Brands. Adjustments to the underlying shares and terms of outstanding stock options, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and restricted stock were made to preserve the intrinsic value of the awards immediately before the separation. The adjustment of the underlying shares and exercise prices, as applicable, was determined using a ratio based on the relative values of the VF pre-distribution stock value and the VF post-distribution stock value as determined by the Company. The outstanding awards continue to vest over their original vesting
periods. The Company will recognize $13.0 million of total incremental compensation cost related to the adjustment of the VF equity awards, of which $0.3 million and $12.3 million were recognized during the three and six months ended September 2019, respectively.
In connection with the spin-off, stock options to purchase 756,709 shares of VF Common Stock, 52,018 performance-based RSUs, 79,187 nonperformance-based RSUs and 112,763 restricted shares of VF Common Stock were converted into Kontoor Brands equity awards.
Incentive Equity Awards Granted
During the six months ended September 2019, VF granted stock options to employees and nonemployee members of VF's Board of Directors to purchase 1,478,107 shares of its Common Stock at a weighted average exercise price of $84.31 per share. The exercise price of each option granted was equal to the fair market value of VF Common Stock on the date of grant. Employee stock options vest in equal annual installments over three years. Stock options granted to nonemployee members of VF's Board of Directors vest upon grant and become exercisable one year from the date of grant.
The grant date fair value of each option award was calculated using a lattice option-pricing valuation model, which incorporated a range of assumptions for inputs as follows:
Also during the six months ended September 2019, VF granted 272,277 performance-based RSUs to employees that enable them to receive shares of VF Common Stock at the end of a three-year performance cycle. Each performance-based RSU has a potential final payout ranging from zero to two shares of VF Common Stock. The number of shares earned by participants, if any, is based on achievement of three-year financial targets set by the Talent and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Shares will be issued to participants in the year following the conclusion of the three-year performance period. The weighted average fair market value of VF Common Stock at the dates the units were granted was $84.30 per share.
The actual number of performance-based RSUs earned may also be adjusted upward or downward by 25% of the target award, based on how VF’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) over the three-year period compares to the TSR for companies included in the Standard & Poor’s 500 Consumer Discretionary Index. The grant date fair value of the TSR-based adjustment related to the performance-based RSU grants was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation technique that incorporates option-pricing model inputs, and was $7.11 per share.
VF granted 10,780 nonperformance-based RSUs to nonemployee members of the Board of Directors during the six months ended September 2019. These units vest upon grant and will be settled
in shares of VF Common Stock one year from the date of grant. The fair market value of VF Common Stock at the date the units were granted was $84.23 per share.
VF granted 7,500 nonperformance-based RSUs to certain key employees in international jurisdictions during the six months ended September 2019. These units vest 50% over a two-year period and 50% over a four-year period from the date of grant and each unit entitles the holder to one share of VF Common Stock. The fair market value of VF Common Stock at the date the units were granted was $84.23 per share.
In addition, VF granted 163,559 nonperformance-based RSUs to employees during the six months ended September 2019. These awards vest 50% over a two-year period and 50% over a four-year period from the date of grant and entitle the holder to one share of VF Common Stock. The weighted average fair market value of VF Common Stock at the dates the units were granted was $84.39 per share.
VF granted 63,621 restricted shares of VF Common Stock to certain members of management during the six months ended September 2019. These shares vest over periods of up to four years from the date of grant. The weighted average fair market value of VF Common Stock at the dates the shares were granted was $86.03 per share.
