Stock Compensation
In connection with the IPO, the Company established the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, which provides for the issuance of various stock-based awards. Under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company has issued restricted stock awards. The 2024 Equity Incentive Plan authorized the issuance of 5,925,000 shares of common stock, and as of December 31, 2025 the Company has capacity to issue 2,816,986 stock-based awards. Prior to the IPO, the Company’s equity plans provided for the issuance of various stock-based awards. Under the 2018 equity incentive plan, the Company issued restricted Class C interests (“restricted interests”) and restricted Class C options (“options”) to purchase restricted Class C interests.
The Company measures the compensation costs of stock-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognizes the costs over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Restricted stock awards are valued using the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The restricted stock awards generally vest over four years. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur. The restricted interests were valued based upon the fair value of the Company at the date of grant. The options were valued using the Black-Scholes option valuation method that uses assumptions that relate to the expected volatility, the expected dividend yield, the expected life of the options, and the risk free interest rate. The Company’s restricted interests and options generally vested over five years, and the options had a term not to exceed ten years.

About Stock Compensation Disclosures

Stock-based compensation disclosures detail the equity awards granted to employees and executives — including stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), and performance shares — along with the valuation methods and assumptions used to expense them. This section reveals the true cost of talent retention and the alignment between management incentives and shareholder interests.

Key signals: total unrecognized compensation expense and its expected recognition period signal future earnings headwinds from already-granted awards. For stock options, examine Black-Scholes assumptions — expected volatility, risk-free rate, and expected term — as understating any of these reduces reported compensation expense. Compare stock compensation expense as a percentage of revenue against peers to assess dilution cost. Watch vesting schedules for acceleration clauses tied to change-of-control events. Performance-based awards with undemanding targets may indicate weak governance. Add back stock compensation to operating cash flow to calculate a more conservative free cash flow figure.
