Stock-Based Compensation

12. Stock-Based Compensation

We recognize stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options and restricted stock units ("RSUs"), and stock purchase rights. Stock options and RSUs are granted under the 2014 Stock Option Plan of Hotshine Holdings, Inc. (the “2014 Plan”) and 2021 Incentive Award Plan (the “2021 Plan”) while stock purchase rights are granted under the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2021 ESPP”).

Refer to our 2024 Form 10-K for additional details on employee stock incentive plans.

Share-Based Payment Valuation

The grant date fair value of Time Vesting Options granted is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The grant date fair value of stock purchase rights granted under the 2021 ESPP is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

We estimated a forfeiture rate of 10.26% for awards with service-based vesting conditions based on historical experience and future expectations of the vesting of these share-based payments. We used this rate as an assumption in calculating stock-based compensation expense for Time Vesting Options, RSUs, and stock purchase rights granted under the 2021 ESPP.
