| EQUITY PLANS AND SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM | EQUITY PLANS AND SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM Stock-Based Compensation Plans We maintain the Amended and Restated Fortinet, Inc. 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Amended Plan”) pursuant to which we have granted RSUs, stock options and PSUs. As of June 30, 2026, there were a total of 45.4 million shares of common stock available for grant under the Amended Plan. Restricted Stock Units and Market/Performance-Based PSUs The following table summarizes the activity and related information for RSUs for the periods presented below (in millions, except per share amounts):
We grant RSUs under the Amended Plan to employees and non-employees. Subject to certain exceptions, RSUs vest generally over four years subject to continued service. We grant market/performance-based PSUs under the Amended Plan to certain of our executives. Based on the achievement of the market/performance-based vesting conditions during the applicable performance period for such PSUs, the final settlement of the PSUs will range between 0% and 200% of the target shares underlying the PSUs based on the percentile ranking of our total stockholder return over -, -, - and four-year periods among companies included in the S&P 500 Index. 20%, 20%, 20% and 40% of the PSUs vest over -, -, - and four-year service periods, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we granted approximately 0.1 million shares of PSU awards to certain of our executives, with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $103.01. The grant date fair value of these awards was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model. The following table summarizes the weighted-average assumptions relating to our PSUs:
Approximately 0.1 million shares of PSUs were vested and less than 0.1 million shares of PSUs were forfeited during the six months ended June 30, 2026. Stock compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each RSU while compensation expense for PSUs is recognized on a graded vesting method. As of June 30, 2026, total compensation expense related to unvested RSUs and PSUs that were granted to employees, non-employees and certain executives, but not yet recognized, was $659.8 million, with a weighted-average vesting period of 2.9 years, and $25.1 million, with a weighted-average vesting period of 2.1 years, respectively. RSUs and PSUs settle into shares of common stock upon vesting. Upon the vesting of the RSUs and PSUs, we net-settle the RSUs and PSUs and withhold a portion of the shares to satisfy employee withholding tax requirements. The payment of the withheld taxes to the tax authorities is reflected as a financing activity within the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The following summarizes the number and value of the shares withheld for employee taxes (in millions):
Employee Stock Options The following table summarizes the weighted-average assumptions relating to our employee stock options:
The following table summarizes the stock option activity and related information for the periods presented below (in millions, except exercise prices and contractual life):
The aggregate intrinsic value represents the difference between the exercise price of stock options and the quoted market price of our common stock at the date of the balance sheet for all in-the-money stock options. Stock compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each stock option. As of June 30, 2026, total compensation expense related to unvested stock options granted to employees but not yet recognized was $56.4 million, with a weighted-average remaining vesting period of 2.8 years. Additional information related to our stock options is summarized below (in millions, except per share amounts):

Share Repurchase Program In January 2026, our board of directors approved a $1.0 billion increase in the authorized stock repurchase amount under the Repurchase Program, bringing the aggregate amount authorized for repurchases to $10.25 billion of our outstanding common stock through February 28, 2027. Share repurchases may be made by us from time to time in privately negotiated transactions or in open-market transactions. The Repurchase Program does not require us to purchase a minimum number of shares, and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased 12.5 million shares of our common stock under the Repurchase Program in open-market transactions, at a weighted-average price of $77.73 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $972.8 million, which excludes a $6.7 million accrual related to the 1% excise tax imposed by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. As of June 30, 2026, approximately $765.8 million remained available for future share repurchases under the Repurchase Program.
