YOUR FAS 123R RESPONSIBILITIES …  AND WHEN TO DO THEM ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
SAMPLE REPORTS - DISCLOSURE
SAMPLE REPORTS – EXPENSE RECOGNITION
THE PLAYERS ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
TYPICAL CURRENT PROCESS 1. Employee joins the company 2.  Stock admin grants the optionee an option and tracks in spreadsheet 3.  Finance is told of the optionee and enters a grant in their spreadsheet for expensing 4.  Changes are made throughout the year (optionees exercise grants, leave company forfeiting their shares, etc).  Stock admin makes changes, but not all changes trickle to finance 6.   Finance has to update their spreadsheet just to have the correct records in their system 7. Finance then has to go through the FAS 123R work to calculate fair value per share and determine the correct expense recognition 8.   Finance sends the auditor the final FAS 123R disclosure requirements 9.  Auditor asks for back-up details on all of the variables used 11.  Back and forth continues until the process is finished and then the process repeats for next year 10.  Finance has to scramble to find these and provide to auditor 5.  End of Year Stock admin has to run reports to give to finance to ensure they have all the necessary information 1.
THERE’S A BETTER WAY 1. Employee joins the company 2.  Stock admin grants the optionee an option and tracks in a  shared equity management system 3.  Finance logs into the shared system and updates their FAS 123R information 4.  Changes are made throughout the year (optionees exercise grants, leave company forfeiting their shares, etc). Since these changes are in a shared system, Finance can see them right away and does not need to repeat duplicate data entry 6.   Auditor receives disclosure reports and can log into the shared system as a read-only person to see all back-up material 8. Process is finished, but the group is already ready for next year as all records are historically stored 5.  Finance reviews the FAS 123R information entered over the year.  No searching for all the back-up material is needed, because it is stored in one central location.  Runs disclosure reports directly from the data in the system 7. Some back and forth occurs, but since everything is stored in a central location, all information can be found easily and within seconds
