SHARE-BASED PAYMENT
Modifications & Cancellations (.26 ‐ .29)
• Changes made to terms after grant date
• E.g. Change in exercise price of option, number of options,
length of vesting period, etc.
• Principle:
• Modifications and cancellations cannot decrease or decelerate
expense that would have been recognised if no change had
occurred
• Can increase or accelerate expense
• Cancellations
• Recognise full remaining expense
• Modifications
• If detrimental/unfavourable to employees
• E.g. increase exercise price / extend vesting period
• Ignore and account for as previously
• If beneficial/favourable to employees
• E.g. decrease exercise price / shorten vesting period
• Continue to recognise existing expense
• Recognise additional beneficial expense as if a new SBP scheme
