The Company recognizes compensation expense for the appreciation
of a SAR awards market value over its exercise price over
the term of the award. Based upon the Companys $32.52
common stock price at February 28, 2006, $11.5 million
of accrued SAR compensation expense is reflected on the
Companys February 28, 2006 consolidated balance
sheet, the current portion of which is $6.7 million,
reflecting compensation associated with SARs which are currently
vested or which will vest within fiscal 2007.
When a SAR is exercised, any difference between the actual
appreciation in the market value of the Companys stock on
the date of exercise, which is paid to the participant in cash,
and the amount previously accrued as compensation expense, is
reflected as a current adjustment to compensation expense. The
Company recorded $13.0 million of compensation expense for
these awards during fiscal 2006, including $0.9 million
within costs of goods sold, $3.1 million within research
and development, and $9.0 million within selling, general
and administrative expenses. The Company recorded
$0.1 million of compensation expense for these awards
during fiscal 2005, primarily within selling, general and
administrative expenses.
