During the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $2,484 and $1,760, respectively of compensation expense related to RSUs. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $4,637 and $3,186, respectively of compensation expense related to RSUs. Stock-based compensation expenses are recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. Performance Share Units On March 8, 2024, the Company granted 241,881 performance share units (“PSUs”) with a weighted-average fair value of $11.69 to certain executives, of which 21,638 were forfeited with a weighted-average fair value of $11.00 during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The grant date fair value of PSUs granted to the Chief Executive Officer was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation and was based on assumptions, including expected volatility of 59.7%, expected dividends of 0%, and a 4.21% risk-free rate. Other granted PSUs’ fair value were based on the Company’s share price on the date of grant, or $11.00 per share. The PSUs will vest based on the Company’s achievement level relative to Adjusted Free Cash Flow for the trailing twelve months ending December 31, 2026, or the consummation of a change in control if earlier (“Performance Period”). Adjusted Free Cash Flow (“aFCF”) is defined as Total Operating Cash Flow plus Investing Cash Flow adjusted for certain nonrecurring items. Upon achievement of the minimum threshold performance metric, the executive may earn a pro rata portion of their respective target shares and up to 200% of their target shares upon maximum achievement. The Chief Executive Officer was granted 166,924 of the 241,881 PSUs which may be further increased or decreased by up to 25%, based on the achievement of Relative Total Stockholder Return, as defined as the stockholder return of the Company relative to certain of its peer companies within the Healthcare Equipment Select Industry Index. The PSUs additionally require the executive to provide service over the performance period. Termination of service prior to completion of the Performance Period, except by reason of death or disability, will result in automatic forfeiture of the performance share units. If the executive’s termination of service occurs by reason of death or disability on or after January 1, 2025, a pro-rata number of the PSUs shall vest at the level based on actual performance through the end of the Performance Period, multiplied by a fraction equal to (x) the number of days elapsed between the beginning of the Performance Period and the date of executive’s termination of service, divided by (y) the total number of days in the Performance Period. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, beginning at the point in time that the performance condition is considered probable of achievement. The probability of achieving the performance condition is assessed at each reporting period. If it is deemed probable that the performance condition will be met, compensation cost will be recognized based on the grant date fair value of the award expected to be earned. If it is deemed that it is not probable that the performance condition will be met, the Company will discontinue the recognition of compensation cost and any compensation cost previously recorded will be reversed. At June 30, 2024, achievement of the performance condition for the performance share units was deemed probable with 334,215 PSUs expected to vest, and the expense recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, was $436. Stock-based compensation expenses are recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.
