Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1. | Background and Basis of Presentation |
Gentiva Health Services, Inc. (Gentiva or the Company) provides home health, hospice and community care services throughout most of the United States. The Companys operations involve servicing its patients and customers through its (i) Home Health segment, (ii)�Hospice segment and (iii) Community Care segment.
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company using accounting principles consistent with those described in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2013 and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for each period presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the consolidated statements of financial position, comprehensive income and cash flows prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements.
The Companys consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company and its subsidiaries in which the Company owns more than a 50 percent interest. Noncontrolling interests, which relate to the minority ownership held by third party investors in certain of the Companys hospice and home health programs, are reported below net income (loss) under the heading Net loss (income) attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Companys consolidated statements of comprehensive income and presented as a component of equity in the Companys consolidated balance sheets. All balances and transactions between the consolidated entities have been eliminated.

Note 1A. | Restatement and Revision of Previously Reported Consolidated Financial Statements |
The Company determined that historically it had incorrectly applied applicable accounting guidance in accounting for its indefinite-lived intangible assets related to closed or consolidated licenses on a pooled basis and did not write-off license costs when the Company closed or consolidated individual operating locations and to correct certain assumptions used in its valuation models for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles. The Company has determined it should amortize the full license cost over the period of closure or consolidation.
In connection with the restatement of the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013 and as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, in this Form 10-Q the Company has revised its consolidated statement of comprehensive loss and consolidated statement of cash flows as of and for the six month and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2013, respectively.
The following schedules reconcile the amounts as previously reported in the applicable financial statement to the corresponding revised amounts:

Note 2. | Accounting Policies |
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all investments with a maturity date three months or less from their date of acquisition to be cash equivalents, including money market funds invested in U.S. Treasury securities, short-term treasury bills and commercial paper. Cash and cash equivalents also included amounts on deposit with several major financial institutions in excess of the maximum amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Management believes that these major financial institutions are viable entities.
The Company had operating funds of approximately $4.2 million and $5.5 million at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, which relate exclusively to a non-profit hospice operation managed in Florida.
Investments
As of December 31, 2013, the Company held an investment, at cost, in CareCentrix Holdings Inc. of $0.9 million for shares that it expected to receive in settlement of certain tax amounts owed to the Company as set forth in the stock purchase agreement. During the third quarter of 2014, the Company finalized the settlement with CareCentrix. See Note 7 for additional information.
At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had assets of $36.1 million and $34.7 million, respectively, held in a Rabbi Trust for the benefit of participants in the Companys non-qualified defined contribution retirement plan. The corresponding amounts payable to the plan participants are equivalent to the underlying value of the assets held in the Rabbi Trust. Assets held in a Rabbi Trust and amounts payable to plan participants are classified in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in the Companys consolidated balance sheets.
Debt Issuance Costs
The Company amortizes deferred debt issuance costs over the term of its credit agreement and senior notes. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had unamortized debt issuance costs of $24.4 million and $28.3 million, respectively, recorded in other assets in the Companys consolidated balance sheets.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets, including costs of Company developed software, are stated at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the life of the lease or the life of the improvement. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, fixed assets, net were $42.0 million and $49.4 million, respectively.
At March 31, 2013, the Company performed an interim impairment test of its Hospice reporting unit. As part of that analysis, the Company reviewed the valuation of its owned real estate utilized in the Hospice business. The analysis indicated that two of the Company's hospice inpatient units had estimated fair values lower than their carrying values and, as such, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of approximately $1.9 million. These charges are recorded in goodwill and other long-lived asset impairment in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
In addition, the Company conducted an evaluation of the various systems used to support its field operations. In connection with that review, the Company made a strategic decision to replace its business intelligence software platform and, as such, recorded a non-cash impairment charge related to developed software, of approximately $1.6 million, which is reflected in goodwill and other long-lived asset impairment in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
8
Goodwill and Other Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
The Company is required to test goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if current events or circumstances require an interim impairment assessment. The Company allocates goodwill to its various reporting units upon the acquisition of the assets or stock of another third party business operation. The Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount to determine if there is a potential impairment of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the fair value of the goodwill within the operating unit is less than the carrying value of its goodwill. To determine the fair value of the Company's reporting units, the Company uses a present value (discounted cash flow) technique corroborated by market multiples when available, a reconciliation to market capitalization or other valuation methodologies, and reasonableness tests, as appropriate.
If the carrying amount of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. Fair values of other indefinite-lived intangible assets are determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, as appropriate.
At March 31, 2013, the Company performed an interim impairment test of its Hospice reporting unit. Based on the results of the interim impairment test, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge relating to goodwill of approximately $207.2 million, which is reflected in goodwill and other long-lived asset impairment in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. See Note 9 for additional information.
Obligations Under Self Insurance Programs
As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Companys obligations under insurance programs were $78.3 million and $82.6 million, respectively. Workers compensation and professional and general liability expenses were $5.0 million and $15.0 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2014, respectively, as compared to $6.6 million and $19.2 million for the corresponding periods of 2013. Employee health and welfare expenses were $21.4 million and $67.8 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2014, respectively, as compared to $21.0 million and $64.0 million for the corresponding periods of 2013.
Nursing Home Costs
For patients receiving nursing home care under a state Medicaid program who elect hospice care under Medicare or Medicaid, the Company contracts with nursing homes for the nursing homes to provide patients room and board services. The state must pay the Company, in addition to the applicable Medicare or Medicaid hospice daily or hourly rate, an amount equal to at least 95 percent of the Medicaid daily nursing home rate for room and board furnished to the patient by the nursing home. Under the Companys standard nursing home contracts, the Company pays the nursing home for these room and board services at the Medicaid daily nursing home rate. Nursing home costs are partially offset by nursing home net revenue, and the net amount is included in cost of services sold in the Companys consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Net nursing home costs for the third quarter and first nine months of 2014 were $2.9 million and $7.3 million, respectively, as compared to $1.7 million and $7.2 million for the corresponding periods of 2013.
Note 3. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
On May 28. 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (ASU 2014-09), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. This ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.� Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
On July 18, 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740) (ASU 2013-11), which provides final guidance that requires an entity to net its liability for unrecognized tax positions against a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward when settlement in this manner is available under the tax law. The provisions of this new guidance were effective as of the beginning of the Company's 2014 year. �The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

Note 5. | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The Companys financial instruments are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, except for the notes receivable from CareCentrix and long-term debt. The fair values for the notes receivable from CareCentrix and non-financial assets, such as fixed assets, intangible assets and goodwill, are measured periodically and adjustments recorded only if an impairment charge is required. The carrying amount of the Companys accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain other current liabilities approximates fair value due to their short maturities.
Fair value is defined under authoritative guidance as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use
10
of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs are as follows:
" | Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
" | Level 2Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
" | Level 3Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |

Assets held in the Rabbi Trust are held for the benefit of participants in the Companys non-qualified defined contribution retirement plan. The value of assets held in the Rabbi Trust is based on quoted market prices of securities and investments, including money market accounts and mutual funds, maintained within the Rabbi Trust. The corresponding amounts payable to plan participants are equivalent to the underlying value of assets held in the Rabbi Trust. Assets held in the Rabbi Trust and amounts payable to plan participants are classified in other assets and other liabilities, respectively, in the Companys consolidated balance sheets. Money market funds held in the Companys account represent cash equivalents and were classified in cash and cash equivalents in the Companys consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
The estimated fair value of the acquisition contingent liabilities were determined using a discounted cash flow approach utilizing level 2 and level 3 inputs which included observable market discount rates, fixed payment schedules, and assumptions based on achieving certain pre-defined performance criteria. See Note 4 for further information.

The estimated fair value of the note receivable from CareCentrix was determined from Level 3 inputs based on an income approach using the discounted cash flow method. The fair value represents the net present value of (i)�the after tax cash flows relating to the note's annual income stream plus (ii)�the return of the invested principal using a maturity date of March�19, 2017, after considering assumptions relating to risk factors and economic conditions. See Note 7 for additional information.
In determining the estimated fair value of long-term debt, Level 2 inputs based on the use of bid and ask prices were considered. Due to the infrequent number of transactions that occur related to the long-term debt, the Company does not believe an active market exists for purposes of this disclosure.
Note 6. | Net Revenues and Accounts Receivable |
Net revenues in the Home Health and Hospice segments were derived from all major payer classes, while Community Care segment net revenues were derived primarily from Medicaid and Insurance payer classes. Net revenue by major payer classes were as follows (in millions):

For the third quarter and first nine months of 2014, the Company recorded hospice Medicare cap expense of $0.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively, as compared to hospice Medicare cap credits of $2.9 million and $4.5 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, respectively, which are reflected in net revenues in the Companys consolidated statements of comprehensive income. For the Medicare cap year 2014, which began November 1, 2013, the Company has recorded $1.8 million in Medicare cap expense and has seven hospice providers currently estimated to be in excess of Medicare cap limits.
The Medicare payment cap, which is calculated for each provider by the Medicare fiscal intermediary at the end of the hospice cap period, is determined under the proportional method. The proportional method allocates each beneficiary's Medicare payment cap based on the ratio of the number of days the beneficiary received hospice services from the Company over the total number of days the beneficiary received hospice services from all providers. The Medicare payment cap amount is then further allocated between the hospice cap periods based on the ratio of the number of days the Company provided hospices services during each cap period. The sum of each beneficiary's Medicare cap payment, as determined above, represents the aggregate Medicare payment cap. Medicare revenue paid to a provider during the hospice cap period cannot exceed the aggregate Medicare payment cap. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had Medicare
12
cap liabilities of $3.7 million and $6.5 million, respectively, which are reflected in Medicare liabilities in the Companys consolidated balance sheets.
Odyssey HealthCare, Inc. ("Odyssey"), prior to its acquisition by Gentiva, filed appeals with Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") to change the methodology previously used to calculate the Medicare payment cap in order to utilize the proportional method of determining the payment cap, as described above. This method allocates the Medicare payment cap over the cap years that the beneficiary is on service. In connection with those appeals, the Company has received final settlement letters for many of its providers and recorded approximately $3.4 million and $5.9 million as net revenue for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, respectively, in the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Corporate Integrity Agreement
Under Odyssey's five-year Corporate Integrity Agreement ("CIA") with the Office of Inspector General of the United States Department of Health and Human Services ("OIG"), which became effective on February 15, 2012, Odyssey must engage a third party to perform verification and unallowable cost reviews. In addition, Odyssey's eligibility review team must review the eligibility of Odyssey's Medicare beneficiaries for the hospice services those beneficiaries received and prepare an eligibility review report. Odyssey must submit to the OIG annually a report with respect to the status of, and findings regarding, Odyssey's compliance activities. Any overpayments identified by Odyssey are paid back to the various Medicare administrative contractors by April 1st of the following year. If Odyssey fails to comply with the terms of the CIA, it will be subject to penalties. In connection with these eligibility reviews, the Company reduced reserves by approximately $0.4 million for the third quarter of 2014 and recorded reserves of approximately $1.9 million for the first nine months of 2014. The Company recorded reserves of $3.5 million and $5.0 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, respectively, which are reflected as a reduction of net revenues in the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
PRRB Appeal
During the third quarter of 2013, the Company finalized its year 2000 cost reports, which are now being settled by CMS. In connection with the settlements, the Company recorded a positive adjustment of approximately $4.0 million to net revenues for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, in the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income. See Note 14 for additional information.

Note 7. | Investment in and Notes Receivable from CareCentrix |
The Company holds a $25.0 million subordinated promissory note from CareCentrix, Inc. In connection with the sale of the Companys ownership interest in CareCentrix Holdings on September 19, 2011, the maturity date of the note was extended to the earlier of March�19, 2017 or a sale of CareCentrix Holdings. The note bears interest at a fixed rate of 10 percent, which is payable quarterly, provided that CareCentrix remains in compliance with its senior debt covenants. Interest on the CareCentrix promissory note, which is included in interest income in the Companys consolidated statements of comprehensive income, amounted to $0.6 million and $1.9 million for the third quarter and first nine months, respectively, of both 2014 and 2013.
Pursuant to the terms of the stock purchase agreement, approximately $10.6 million of the sale price due to the Company was placed into an escrow fund for future indemnification claims. As of September 30, 2014, approximately $0.7 million of the escrow fund was paid out to cover expenses related to an indemnified claim.
13
On August 24, 2012, the Company received notification from CareCentrix of its election to draw seller financing from the escrow fund pursuant to the terms of the stock purchase agreement. As such, the Company reclassified its escrow receivable of approximately $9.9 million from prepaid expenses and other current assets to a seller financing note from CareCentrix on the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012. The seller financing note receivable, which bears interest at 18 percent, matures on the earlier of March�19, 2017 or upon the sale of CareCentrix Holdings. Interest on this note is payable quarterly, in kind, and will accrete as additional principal on the note. The Company expects to record interest income at the time of receipt as the note is part of the proposed settlement discussed below.
On September 17, 2012, the Company received a formal notice of claims for indemnification from CareCentrix. In the notice, CareCentrix asserted that the total claimed amounts exceed the total amount in escrow and demanded that the entire principal amount of the seller financing note receivable be reduced to zero. In anticipation of a settlement of claims alleged by the owner of CareCentrix and working capital adjustments as set forth in the stock purchase agreement, during the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company recorded a $6.5 million adjustment to the seller financing note receivable to reflect its revised estimated fair value of $3.4 million. The Company also established an investment in CareCentrix of $0.9 million for shares that it may receive as part of any settlement. During the third quarter of 2014, the Company received cash of approximately $3.6 million in settlement of the seller financing note receivable and the Company's investment in CareCentrix. In connection with the settlement, the Company recorded a loss of approximately $0.5 million in equity in net loss of CareCentrix, net of tax in the Company's consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
The Companys financing receivables consist of the previously described $25.0 million subordinated promissory note from CareCentrix, Inc. dated September 19, 2011. The Company measures impairment based on the present value of expected cash flows after considering assumptions relating to risk factors and economic conditions. On an ongoing basis, the Company assesses the credit quality based on the Companys review of CareCentrix, Inc.s financial position and receipt of interest payments when due. Based on the Companys analysis, as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had no allowances for credit losses.
Note 8. | Cost Savings Initiatives and Acquisition and Integration Activities |
The Company recorded net charges relating to cost savings initiatives and acquisition and integration activities of $0.5 million and $10.5 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2014, respectively, and $1.7 million and $2.6 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, respectively, which were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Companys consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Cost Savings Initiatives
During the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company undertook a corporate restructuring initiative, referred to as "One Gentiva", to better align its home health, hospice and community care businesses under a common regional management structure. In addition, the Company undertook a branch rationalization initiative to review under performing branches. As a result of this review, the Company closed or consolidated 94 branches through the third quarter of 2014. As such, the Company recorded charges of $0.2 million and $4.3 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2014, respectively, primarily related to severance and facility lease costs. The Company substantially completed these costs savings initiatives during the second quarter of 2014.
For the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, the Company recorded charges related to cost savings initiatives of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. These costs primarily related to a 2012 initiative to reduce ongoing operating costs related to branch structure and support infrastructure. The Company substantially completed these cost savings initiatives during the second quarter of 2013.
Acquisition and Integration Activities
The Company recorded charges of $0.3 million and $6.2 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2014, respectively, and $1.6 million and $2.3 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, respectively, primarily related to the Company's acquisition of Harden. These costs consisted of (i) severance and lease costs associated with consolidation of branches in overlapping markets and consolidation of back office functions and (ii) legal, accounting and other professional fees and expenses associated with the transaction. The Company expects to complete its integration activities in early 2015.

The balance of unpaid charges relating to cost savings initiatives and other restructuring costs and acquisition and integration activities approximated $9.7 million at September 30, 2014 and $16.4 million at December 31, 2013, which were included in other accrued expenses in the Companys consolidated balance sheets.
Note 9. | Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets |
The Company is required to test goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if current events or circumstances require an interim impairment assessment. The Company allocates goodwill to its various reporting units upon the acquisition of the assets or stock of another third party business operation. The Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to the carrying amount of their allocated net assets to determine if there is a potential impairment of goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the fair value of the goodwill within the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of its goodwill.
To determine the fair value of the Company's reporting units, the Company uses a present value (discounted cash flow) technique corroborated by market multiples when available, a reconciliation to market capitalization or other valuation methodologies and reasonableness tests, as appropriate. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates, operating margins, discount rates and future market conditions, among others. The future occurrence of a potential indicator of impairment, such as, but not limited to, a significant adverse change in legal factors or business climate, reductions of projected patient census, an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, as well as other unforeseen factors, would require an interim assessment for some or all of the reporting units.
15
If the carrying amount of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. Fair values of other indefinite-lived intangible assets are determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, as appropriate.
The Company's operations include three reporting units: Home Health, Hospice and Community Care. At March 31, 2013, the Company determined that a triggering event had occurred due to lower than expected average daily census and higher than expected discharge rates during the quarter and performed an interim impairment test of its Hospice reporting unit. For purposes of the interim impairment test, the Company applied certain assumptions that included, but were not limited to, patient census projections, gross margin assumptions, operating efficiencies and economies of scale. To determine fair value, the Company considered the income approach, which determines fair value based on estimated future cash flows of the reporting unit, discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital (discount rate), which reflects the overall level of inherent risk of a reporting unit and the rate of return an outside investor would expect to earn. The Company used a discount rate of 9.5 percent to calculate the fair value of its Hospice reporting unit. Based on the results of the interim impairment test, the Company's Hospice reporting unit had an estimated fair value of approximately $555 million. As such, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge relating to goodwill of approximately $207.2 million, which is reflected in goodwill and other long-lived asset impairment in the Company's consolidated comprehensive statement of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

As governed by the indenture covering the unsecured Senior Notes, the Company has a maximum permitted borrowing capacity, as defined, which may limit the Company's ability to borrow up to the full capacity of the revolving credit facility.
The Term Loan B facility is subject to mandatory principal payments of $6.7 million per year, payable in equal quarterly installments, with the remaining balance of the original $670 million loan payable on October�18, 2019. The Term Loan C facility is subject to mandatory principal payments, payable in quarterly installments.

The interest rate per annum on borrowings under the Credit Agreement is based on, at the option of the Company, (i)�the Eurodollar Rate, adjusted for certain costs plus an Applicable Margin or (ii)�the Base Rate, plus an Applicable Rate. The Base Rate represents the highest of (x)�the Barclays Bank prime rate, (y)�the federal funds rate plus 0.50 percent or (z)�the Eurodollar Rate adjusted for certain costs plus 1.00 percent. In connection with determining the interest rates on the Term Loan B and Term Loan C facilities, in no event shall the Eurodollar Rate be less than 1.25 percent and the Base Rate be less than 2.25 percent. The Company may select interest periods of one, two, three or six months for Eurodollar Rate loans. Interest is payable at the end of the selected interest period. The Company must also pay a fee of 0.50 percent per annum on unused commitments under the revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2014, the interest rate on Term Loan B borrowings was 6.50 percent, on Term Loan C borrowings was 5.75 percent and on revolving credit borrowings was 4.77 percent.

ended September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, the Company did not repurchase shares of its outstanding common stock. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had remaining authorization under the 2012 Repurchase Program to repurchase common stock with an aggregate purchase price of up to $1.5 million, subject to the additional limitations set forth below.
The Companys Credit Agreement provides for repurchases of the Companys common stock not to exceed $7.5 million per year, and not to exceed $25.0 million per year if the consolidated leverage ratio is less than or equal to 3.5:1 immediately after giving effect on a pro forma basis to the repurchase.

Note 13. | Equity-Based Compensation Plans |
The Company provides several equity-based compensation plans under which the Companys officers, employees and non-employee directors may participate, including (i)�the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (amended and restated as of March 16, 2011, as further amended by Amendment Nos. 1 and 2 thereto) (2004 Plan), (ii)�the Stock�& Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors (DSU Plan) and (iii)�the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP). Collectively, these equity-based compensation plans permit the grants of (i)�incentive stock options, (ii)�non-qualified stock options, (iii)�stock appreciation rights, (iv)�restricted stock, (v)�performance units, (vi)�stock units and (vii)�cash, as well as allow employees to purchase shares of the Companys common stock under the ESPP at a pre-determined discount.
For the third quarter and first nine months of 2014, the Company recorded equity-based compensation expense, as calculated on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods of the related equity instruments, of $2.3 million and $6.6 million, respectively, as compared to $2.0 million and $6.0 million for the corresponding periods of 2013, which were reflected as selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Stock Options
The weighted average fair values of the Companys stock options granted during the first nine months of 2014 and 2013 calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and other assumptions were as follows:�
� | Nine Months Ended | ||||||
� | September�30, 2014 | September�30, 2013 | |||||
Weighted average fair value of options granted | $ | 5.08 | $ | 10.74 | |||

Contractual life | 7 years | 7 years | |||||
Expected life | 3.4 - 5.4 years | 3.4�-�5.4�years | |||||
Expected dividend yield | % | % |
During the first nine months of 2014, the Company issued 375,000 stock options that are both time-vesting (one-third each year) and carry a market vesting feature based on the average 30-day closing stock price of the Company's common stock based on stock price thresholds of $14, $16, and $18 (each covering one-third of the options granted). The fair value of the stock options granted ranged from $5.15 to $5.88 and was determined using the Monte Carlo stock option valuation model. Assumptions used in the model included volatility of 63 percent, risk-free interest rate of 1.32 percent, zero percent dividend yield, a forfeiture rate based on the Company's historical experience and a contractual life of seven years.
Stock option grants in 2011 through 2014 vest over a three-year period based on a vesting schedule that provides for one-third vesting after each year. In addition, the Company also issued stock options in 2013 and 2014 that are both time-vesting (one-third each year) and carry a market vesting feature based on the average 30-day closing stock price of the Company's common stock. Stock option grants in 2010 fully vest over a four-year period based on a vesting schedule that provides for one-half vesting after year two and an additional one-fourth vesting after each of years three and four. The Companys expected volatility assumptions are based on the historical volatility of the Companys stock price over a period corresponding to the expected term of the stock option. Forfeitures are estimated utilizing the Companys historical forfeiture experience. The expected life of the Companys stock options is based on the Companys historical experience of the exercise patterns associated with its stock options.
