Morokotso Trust and Share Incentive Trust (Implats Share Incentive Scheme) are consolidated and the Implats shares held by them are resultantly accounted for as treasury shares. During the year, 24 108 (2014: 145 852) treasury shares were sold by the Share Incentive Trust, resulting in R1 (2014: R8) million being recognised within the statement of changes of equity as share premium. 8 903 016 (2014: 8 927 124) treasury shares with a historical cost of R1 413 (2014: R1 420) million held by these two trusts are expected to be sold before the end of 2016. 16 233 994 treasury shares bought in terms of a share buyback is held at the discretion of the Group.  

13.1   Equity-settled share-based compensation  
 

The Group issues equity-settled and cash-settled (note 17) share-based payments to employees. Equity-settled schemes include the Long-term Incentive Plan, comprising Share Appreciation Rights (SAR) and Conditional Share Plan (CSP) consisting of shares with a nil exercise price and the Implats Share Incentive Scheme (ISIS). Grants under the ISIS ceased in September 2004. All these share options have now vested and have been accounted for.  

 

During the year R111 (2014: R123) million was expensed in terms of the Long-term Incentive Plan.  

 

The fair value of the equity-settled share-based payments was calculated using the binomial option model for non-vested shares, except for fully paid shares which are valued using the share price on valuation date, adjusted for the present value of expected dividends during the vesting period as well as market performance conditions.  

  The average inputs for determining the fair value are as follows:

1 The weighted average option value of equity-settled shares is calculated on grant date.
2 Weighted average share price for valuation of equity-settled shares is calculated taking into account the market price on all grant dates. 
3 The weighted average exercise price for equity-settled shares is calculated taking into account the exercise price on each grant date.
4 Volatility for equity-settled shares is the 400-day moving average historical volatility on Implats shares on each valuation date. 
5 The weighted average market price of the share on date of issue approximates the weighted average exercise price. Options are granted based on the market price at the date of issue.

The share options are full value shares, with a R nil exercise price. The contractual life ends on the vesting date.  

 

Refer to note 37 for the details on share-based payment rights held by key management personnel (directors and senior executive management).  

  Long-term Incentive Plan – Conditional Share Plan (LTIP – CSP) 
 

Fully paid shares are awarded free of charge to the participants at the end of a three-year vesting period. On the date of award, participants are only granted conditional rights to acquire these shares at a future date, and only become shareholders with dividend and voting rights from vesting onwards. There are two CSPs in effect. For the shares to vest in both instances participants must remain employed by a company in the Implats Group but, for certain of these shares, vesting of the shares are subject to the achievement of defined performance vesting conditions over the performance period.  

  The ranking determines the vesting percentage. The proposed vesting scale relative to peer group is as follows:
  • If the ranking of Implats is in the lowest three – no shares will vest
  • If the ranking is fourth – 50% will vest
  • If the ranking is third – 75% will vest
  • If the ranking is second – 90% will vest
  • If the ranking is first – 100% will vest.
  Long-term Incentive Plan – Share Appreciation Rights (LTIP – SAR) 
 

Conditional rights are awarded to participants to receive shares in Implats. The number of shares awarded are calculated with reference to the increase in the share price from the award date until the date on which the SAR is exercised by the participants. A three-year vesting period applies, during which time the participants have no rights in respect of the underlying shares. Vesting is conditional on continued employment and a prescribed level of corporate performance.

The participants are only entitled to exercise the SARs subsequent to and to the extent that vesting has taken place. Participants become shareholders following the exercise of the SARs. All unexercised SARs lapse after six years from date of allocation.  

  These rights are weighted as follows and subject to the following performance conditions:
  • The total shareholder return must exceed growth in the award date share price of CPI plus 2% compounded annually over a three-year period, with a 33.33% weighting
  • A relative earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) margin, being EBITDA divided by revenue, with a 33.33% weighting. Implats will be ranked against the peer group companies (on the same scale as for the CSP) based on the EBITDA margin over the three-year period
  • A relative measure on safety with a 33.33% weighting. Implats will be ranked against the peer group companies (on the same scale as for the CSP) based on the fatality injury frequency rate over the three-year period.
