Share-Based Compensation |
Note 3 — Share-Based Compensation
Legacy Education Alliance, Inc. does not currently have any stock-based compensation plans. However, our parent company, Tigrent Inc., does have two incentive stock plans; the “2009 Incentive Plan” and the “2012 Incentive Plan”, which cover some of our current employees and directors. The financial activity pertaining to our employees and directors is reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements, presented herein.
We account for share-based awards under the provisions of ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation.” Accordingly, share-based compensation cost for all stock based payment awards made to employees and directors under Tigrent’s Incentive Plans is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and we expense these costs using the straight-line method over the requisite service period. Share-based compensation expense was $0.0 million and $0.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. We record these costs in general and administrative expenses. See Note 7 — Stock-Based Compensation, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, included in our 2014 Annual Report for further discussion. |
