Other Operating Expenses
In connection with his retirement in July 2025, the Company’s former chief executive officer, Balu Balakrishnan, entered into a transition agreement and a consulting agreement with the Company. Pursuant to these agreements, Mr. Balakrishnan’s outstanding equity awards continue to vest subject to his continuous service and the applicable award agreements. The majority of these awards are subject to performance criteria established at the time of grant and will only be earned to the extent that the Company’s performance satisfies such criteria at the conclusion of the applicable performance periods. As the services to be performed by Mr. Balakrishnan under the transition agreement and the consulting agreement do not qualify as “substantive services” under ASC 718, Compensation–Stock Compensation, the continued vesting of the outstanding equity awards represents a modification of the original awards. Consequently, in the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized stock-based compensation in the amount of $8.4 million in other operating expenses. In the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded an expense of $0.5 million in other operating expenses on its condensed consolidated statements of income, adjusting a portion of the previously recognized stock-based compensation expenses. The corresponding amount for the six-month period was a credit of $0.9 million. The adjustment reflects our revised estimate of the portion of the awards that will ultimately vest based on the Company's forecasted performance. Subsequent changes in our estimates could result in further adjustments in future periods until the vesting of these equity awards.
