Share-based Payment Arrangements
As of September 24, 2022, the Company has an employee equity incentive plan, the 2011 equity incentive plan (the “2011 EIP”). The Company also has a stock compensation plan for members of its Board of Directors, the 2022 Directors Stock Compensation Plan (the “2022 DSCP”), which replaced the Amended and Restated 2013 Directors Stock Compensation Plan (as amended and restated, the “2013 DSCP”). At the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 11, 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2022 DSCP. The provisions of the 2022 DSCP are substantially similar to the provisions of the 2013 DSCP. 6,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were authorized for issuance under the 2011 EIP, and 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were authorized for issuance under the 2022 DSCP. No further grants can be made under the 2013 DSCP, including 56,502 shares of the Company’s common stock previously reserved for issuance, but not issued, under the 2013 DSCP. The 2011 EIP, 2013 DSCP and 2022 DSCP are each referred to herein as a “Plan,” and, collectively, as the “Plans.” Amounts recognized in the financial statements with respect to these Plans are as follows (in thousands):

As of September 24, 2022, there were 193,217 shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the 2022 DSCP and 3,245,251 shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the 2011 EIP.

under each such award.
During the thirty-nine-week period ended September 24, 2022, the Company granted RSUs with a performance condition. Outstanding RSUs at both December 25, 2021 and September 24, 2022 include RSUs with a performance condition and RSUs with a market condition, as further described below and in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
RSUs with a performance condition granted on January 28, 2022 may vest on January 31 of 2025, 2026 and 2027 based on growth in operating income and
pre-tax
income per diluted share from continuing operations as compared to the results from the 2021 fiscal year.
The Company recognized approximately $7,035,000 and $16,223,000 of share-based compensation expense related to RSU awards in the thirty-nine-week periods ended September 24, 2022 and September 25, 2021, respectively. As of September 24, 2022, there was a maximum of $19.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to RSU awards granted under the Plans with an expected average remaining life of approximately 3.6 years. With respect to RSU awards with a performance condition, the amount of future compensation expense to be recognized will be determined based on future operating results.

The fair value of each share of
non-vested
restricted stock issued and Deferred Stock Unit granted under the Plans is based on the fair value of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Shares of
non-vested
restricted stock are generally subject to vesting in three equal annual installments either on the first, second and third anniversary of the date of the grant or the third, fourth and fifth anniversary of the date of the grant, or 100% on the first or fifth anniversary of the date of the grant. For restricted stock awards granted under the 2022 DSCP, each recipient may elect to defer receipt of shares and instead receive restricted stock units (“Deferred Stock Units”), which represent contingent rights to receive shares of the Company’s common stock on the date of recipient separation
from service from the Board of Directors, or, if earlier, upon a change in control event of the Company. Deferred Stock Units become vested 100% on the first anniversary of the date of the grant. Deferred Stock Units do not represent actual ownership in shares of the Company’s common stock and the recipient does not have voting rights or other incidents of ownership until the shares are issued. However, Deferred Stock Units do contain the right to receive dividend equivalent payments prior to settlement into shares.
As of September 24, 2022, there was $4,375,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to
non-vested
shares of restricted stock and Deferred Stock Units granted under the Plans. The unrecognized compensation cost related to these
non-vested
shares of restricted stock and Deferred Stock Units is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years.

Income Taxes
The provisions for income taxes for the 2022 and 2021 thirty-nine-week periods were based on estimated annual effective income tax rates of 24.5% and 24.4%, respectively, adjusted for discrete events, such as benefits resulting from stock-based awards. The estimated annual effective income tax rate was higher than the statutory federal income tax rate of 21% in both periods primarily attributable to state taxes and
non-deductible
executive compensation. The effective income tax rate for the 2022 thirty-nine-week period was 23.9%, which was lower than the estimated annual effective income tax rate of 24.5%, primarily attributable to excess tax benefits realized on stock-based awards. The effective income tax rate for the 2021 thirty-nine-week period was 24.2%, which was lower than the estimated annual effective income tax rate of 24.4% primarily attributable to excess tax benefits realized on stock-based awards.

Earnings Per Share
Earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding, including outstanding
non-vested
restricted stock and outstanding Deferred Stock Units. Diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares and Deferred Stock Units outstanding plus the incremental shares that would have been outstanding upon the assumed exercise of all dilutive stock options. During the 2022 and 2021 thirty-nine-week and thirteen-week periods, in reference to the determination of diluted earnings per share, the future compensation cost attributable to outstanding shares of
non-vested
restricted stock exceeded the impact of incremental shares that would have been outstanding upon the assumed exercise of all dilutive stock options.
For each of the thirty-nine-week periods ended September 24, 2022 and September 25, 2021, no options outstanding to purchase shares of common stock were antidilutive. Outstanding RSUs were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for all periods because the performance metric requirements or market condition for vesting had not been satisfied.

Additional Cash Flow Information
During the 2022 thirty-nine-week period, Landstar paid income taxes and interest of $125,690,000 and $3,101,000, respectively. During the 2021 thirty-nine-week period, Landstar paid income taxes and interest of $71,823,000 and $2,780,000, respectively.

Investments
Investments include primarily investment-grade corporate bonds and asset-backed securities having maturities of up to five years (the “bond portfolio”) and money market investments. Investments in the bond portfolio are reported as
available-for-sale
and are carried at fair value. Investments maturing less than one year from the balance sheet date are included in short-term investments and investments maturing more than one year from the balance sheet date are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Management performs an analysis of the nature of the unrealized losses on
available-for-sale
investments to determine whether an allowance for credit loss is necessary. Unrealized losses, representing the excess of the purchase price of an investment over its fair value as of the end of a period, considered to be a result of credit-related factors, are to be included as a charge in the statement of income, while unrealized losses considered to be a result of noncredit-related factors are to be included as a component of shareholders’ equity. Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets are classified within Level 1. Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but are valued based on quoted market prices, are classified within Level 2. As Level 2 investments include positions that are not traded in active markets, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or
non-transferability,
which are generally based on available market information. Any transfers between levels are recognized as of the beginning of any reporting period. Fair value of the bond portfolio was determined using Level 1 inputs related to U.S. Treasury obligations and money market investments and Level 2 inputs related to investment-grade corporate bonds, asset-backed securities and direct obligations of government agencies. Unrealized losses, net of unrealized gains, on the investments in the bond portfolio were $11,304,000 at September 24, 2022, while unrealized gains, net of unrealized losses, on the investments in the bond portfolio were $144,000 at December 25, 2021.

The Company believes unrealized losses on investments were primarily caused by rising interest rates rather than changes in credit quality. The Company expects to recover, through collection of all of the contractual cash flows of each security, the amortized cost basis of these securities as it does not intend to sell, and does not anticipate being required to sell, these securities before recovery of the cost basis. For these reasons, no losses have been recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Leases
Landstar’s noncancelable leases are primarily comprised of finance leases for the acquisition of new trailing equipment. Each finance lease for the acquisition of trailing equipment is a five year lease with a $1 purchase option for the applicable equipment at lease expiration. Substantially all of Landstar’s operating lease
right-of-use
assets and operating lease liabilities represent leases for facilities maintained in support of the Company’s network of BCO Independent Contractors and office space used to conduct Landstar’s business.

These leases do not have significant rent escalation holidays, concessions, leasehold improvement incentives or other
build-out
clauses. Further, the leases do not contain contingent rent provisions. Landstar also rents certain trailing equipment to supplement the Company-owned trailer fleet under
“month-to-month”
lease terms, which are not required to be recorded on the balance sheet due to the less than twelve month lease term exemption. Sublease income is primarily comprised of weekly trailing equipment rentals to BCO Independent Contractors.
Most of Landstar’s operating leases include one or more options to renew. The exercise of lease renewal options is typically at Landstar’s sole discretion, and, as such, the majority of renewals to extend the lease terms are not included in the
right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities as they are not reasonably certain of exercise. Landstar regularly evaluates the renewal options, and when they are reasonably certain of exercise, Landstar includes the renewal period in the lease term.
As most of Landstar’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate, Landstar utilized its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. Landstar has a centrally managed treasury function; therefore, based on the applicable lease terms and the current economic environment, the Company applies a portfolio approach for determining the incremental borrowing rate.
