| STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY |
NOTE M — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Common Stock The Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value, consists of 200,000,000 authorized shares, of which 53,009,026 and 52,954,430 shares were and as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan The Company maintains a 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) and has registered 6,200,000 shares of common stock issuable under the Plan. The 2020 Plan authorizes discretionary grants of incentive stock options to employees of the Company and its qualifying subsidiaries. The 2020 Plan also authorizes discretionary grants of non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, dividend equivalents or other equity or cash-based awards to employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries and to members of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company. To the extent that an award under the 2020 Plan expires, is cancelled, forfeited, terminated, settled in cash or is otherwise settled without issuance of the full number of shares to which it relates, those shares will become or again be available for awards under the 2020 Plan. The 2020 Plan is administered by the Board’s Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has complete, full and final authority to: designate participants; determine the types of awards to be granted; determine the terms of awards; interpret and administer the 2020 Plan and any agreements and awards thereunder. Restricted stock unit activity under the 2020 Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was as follows:
As of March 31, 2023, the Company’s restricted stock units included 1,073,736 performance-based awards that had vesting provisions subject to both time vesting and the achievement of certain performance milestones at 100% and 200% vesting targets. Effective March 31, 2022, the performance-based awards granted in 2021 (the “2021 PSUs”) met the performance metric at the maximum level of 200%, of which -third vested on December 22, 2022 and -thirds vested on December 22, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized share-based compensation expense for the 2021 PSUs of $2.0 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not recognize any share-based compensation expense for the 2021 PSUs.
For the restricted stock unit awards granted under the 2020 Plan containing both service and performance conditions, the Company recognizes compensation expense when the awards are considered probable of vesting. Restricted stock units are considered granted, and the service inception date begins, when a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions between the Company and the employee have been established. The fair value of these awards is determined based on the closing price of the shares on the grant date. The probability of restricted share awards granted with future performance conditions is evaluated at each reporting period and compensation expense is adjusted based on the probability assessment.
2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan The Company also maintains the AerSale Corporation 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) and has registered 500,000 shares of common stock issuable under the ESPP. No shares were issued during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. |
