Note 10. Stockholders' Equity

Share Repurchase Program

On October 16, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a new program to repurchase up to $25.0 million of our common stock, following the prior repurchase authorization that had been fully utilized. Under the new program, purchases may be made from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated purchases, or both. The timing and number of shares to be purchased will be based on the price of the Company's common stock, general business and market conditions and other investment considerations and factors. This share repurchase program expires on November 3, 2027. The program does not obligate the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

We made repurchases under the applicable share repurchase program in the following periods, which include the market price of the shares, commissions and excise tax:

​

​

As of June 30, 2026, approximately $18.7 million of authorized share repurchases were remaining under the share repurchase program. We expect that repurchases will be funded through available cash balances and ongoing business operating cash generation. Shares of common stock repurchased under the program are immediately retired. Repurchases under our share repurchase program reduce the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share calculations.

Stock-Based Compensation

On May 7, 2025, our stockholders approved the Tactile Systems Technology, Inc. 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”), which authorizes us to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, stock units and other stock-based awards to employees, non-employee directors and certain consultants and advisors. The 2025 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 1,850,000 shares of our common stock, plus the number of shares subject to any award under the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) that was outstanding on May 7, 2025 and that later expires, is cancelled or forfeited, is settled for cash or otherwise does not result in the issuance of all of the shares subject to such award. As of June 30, 2026, 1,449,457 shares were available for future grant pursuant to the 2025 Plan.

Following our stockholders’ approval of the 2025 Plan on May 7, 2025, no additional grants will be made under the 2016 Plan. However, outstanding awards under the 2016 Plan will continue to be governed by their respective original terms.

We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $2.3 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $4.0 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. This expense was allocated as follows:

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units

We have granted performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) to certain participants. These PSUs have both performance-based and time-based vesting features. The PSUs granted in 2025 have three separate performance periods, and one-third of each grant will be earned if and to the extent performance goals based on revenue and adjusted EBITDA margin are achieved in 2025 (ranging from 25% to 175% of target), one-third will be earned if and to the extent performance goals based on revenue change and adjusted EBITDA change are achieved in 2026 (ranging from 25% to 175% of target), and one-third will be earned if and to the extent performance goals based on revenue change and adjusted EBITDA change are achieved in 2027 (ranging from 25% to 175% of target). The PSUs granted in 2026 have three separate performance periods, and one-third of each grant will be earned if and to the extent performance goals based on revenue and adjusted EBITDA margin are achieved in 2026 (ranging from 25% to 175% of target), one-third will be earned if and to the extent performance goals based on revenue change and adjusted EBITDA change are achieved in 2027 (ranging from 25% to 175% of target), and one-third will be earned if and to the extent performance goals based on revenue change and adjusted EBITDA change are achieved in 2028 (ranging from 25% to 175% of target). All earned and vested PSUs will be settled in shares of common stock.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Our employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”), which was approved by our Board of Directors on April 27, 2016, and by our stockholders on June 20, 2016, allows participating employees to purchase shares of our common stock at a discount through payroll deductions. The ESPP is available to all of our employees and employees of participating subsidiaries. Participating employees may purchase common stock, on a voluntary after-tax basis, at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the closing market price per share of our common stock on the first or last trading day of each stock purchase period. The ESPP provides for six-month purchase periods, beginning on May 16 and November 16 of each calendar year.

A total of 1,600,000 shares of common stock was initially reserved for issuance under the ESPP. This share reserve was automatically supplemented each January 1, commencing in 2017 and ending on and including January 1, 2026, by an amount equal to the least of (a) 1% of the shares of our common stock outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31, (b) 500,000 shares or (c) such lesser amount as our Board of Directors may determine. Pursuant to the automatic increase feature of the ESPP, 224,381 shares were added as available for issuance thereunder on January 1, 2026 and 240,780 shares were added as available for issuance thereunder on January 1, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, 1,691,730 shares were available for future issuance under the ESPP. We recognized stock-based compensation expense associated with the ESPP of $0.2 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
