| Stock-based Compensation | Stock-based Compensation WM Holding Company, LLC Equity Incentive Plan The Company has accounted for the issuance of Class A-3 and Class B Units issued under the WM Holding Company, LLC Equity Incentive Plan in accordance with ASC 718 - Stock Based Compensation. The Company considers the limitation on the exercisability of the Class A-3 and Class B Units to be a performance condition and records compensation cost when it becomes probable that the performance condition will be met. In connection with the Business Combination, each of the Class A-3 Units outstanding prior to the Business Combination were cancelled, and the holder thereof received a number of Class A units representing limited liability company interests of WMH LLC (the “Class A Units”) and an equivalent number of shares of Class V Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (together with the Class A Units, the “Paired Interests”), and each of the Class B Units outstanding prior to the Business Combination were cancelled and holders thereof received a number of Class P units representing limited liability company interests of WMH LLC (the “Class P Units” and together with the Class A Units, the “Units”), each in accordance with the Merger Agreement. Concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination, the Unit holders entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”). The terms of the Exchange Agreement, among other things, provide the Unit holders (or certain permitted transferees thereof) with the right from time to time at and after 180 days following the Business Combination to exchange their vested Paired Interests for shares of Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to customary conversion rate adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and reclassifications, or Class P Units for shares of Class A Common Stock with a value equal to the value of such Class P Units less their participation threshold, or in each case, at the Company’s election, the cash equivalent of such shares of Class A Common Stock. There was no activity related to our Class P Units during either of the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, there were 13,803,732 Class P Units outstanding and all outstanding options were vested and exercisable at June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, there is no remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for non-vested Class P Units. The Company recorded no stock-based compensation expense for the Class P Units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, as all Class P awards were fully vested as of the beginning of the reporting period. WM Technology, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan In connection with the Business Combination, the Company adopted the WM Technology, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan permits the granting of incentive stock options to employees and for the grant of non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance awards and other forms of stock awards to employees, directors and consultants. As of June 30, 2026, 56,199,663 shares of Class A Common Stock were authorized for issuance pursuant to awards under the 2021 Plan. The number of shares of Class A Common stock reserved for issuance under the 2021 Plan will automatically increase on January 1 of each year for a period of ten years commencing on January 1, 2022 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2031, in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the total number of shares of the Company’s capital stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding year; provided, however that the Board may act prior to January 1st of a given year to provide that the increase for such year will be a lesser number of shares of Common Stock. As of June 30, 2026, 29,071,526 shares of Class A Common Stock were available for future issuance. A summary of the restricted stock unit (“RSU”) activity for the six months ended June 30, 2026 is as follows:
As of June 30, 2026, unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for non-vested RSUs was $6.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense for the RSUs of $1.0 million and $2.4 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense for the RSUs of $2.1 million and $4.4 million, respectively. The Company grants performance-based restricted stock units (“PRSUs”). For the awards with the Company’s performance and service-based vesting conditions, the level of achievement of such goals may cause the actual number of units that ultimately vest to range from 0% to 200% of the original units granted. The Company recognizes expense ratably over the vesting period for the PRSUs when it is probable that the performance criteria specified will be achieved. The fair value is equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. For the awards with market performance conditions, the vesting of the award is dependent upon the attainment of a target stock price. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for awards with market conditions over the derived service period of the awards. The estimated fair value and derived service period for the awards with market conditions are calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation. Assumptions used in valuing awards with market conditions include the performance period, grant-date stock price, expected volatility, risk-free rate and cost of equity. In November 2024, a PRSU market condition award of 4,342,391 units was granted to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer that will vest based upon achieving certain target prices for the Company’s common stock. Achievement of the target prices will be determined using the volume weighted average closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock over a 30 trading-day period. Any unvested PRSUs remaining after December 31, 2027 will be forfeited. If service is terminated prior to December 31, 2027, all unvested PRSUs will be forfeited. The following table summarizes the key assumptions used in estimating the value of the PRSUs granted in November 2024.
There was no activity for performance condition awards during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were 4,342,391 in non-vested performance based PRSUs with weighted average grant date fair value of $0.38 per share. As of June 30, 2026, the unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for non-vested PRSUs was $0.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.3 years. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense for the PRSUs of $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense for the PRSUs of $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The Company recorded stock-based compensation cost related to the RSUs, PRSUs and Class P Units in the following expense categories on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):
