Restricted Stock Units
The Company grants restricted stock units, or RSUs, to employees with various vesting terms. RSUs entitle the holder to receive, at no cost, one common share for each restricted stock unit on the vesting date as it vests. The Company withholds shares in settlement of employee tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of restricted stock units. Stock-based compensation related to grants of vested RSUs and PSUs was $3.0 million, $1.6, million and $1.0 million in 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
The following table summarizes RSU’s activity under the 2019 Plan and 2009 Plan, and the related weighted average grant date fair value, for 2019, 2018 and 2017:

Interest expense and financing costs
Fees and discounts associated with the issuance of our debt instruments are recorded as debt discount, which reduces their respective carrying values, and are amortized over their respective terms. Amortization expense is recorded within “Interest and other expense (income), net” in our consolidated statement of operations.
For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017: interest expense was $86 million, $134 million, and $150 million, respectively; amortization of the debt discount and deferred financing costs was $4 million, $6 million, and $12 million, respectively.
A summary of our outstanding debt is as follows (amounts in millions):
With the exception of the 2026 and the 2047 Notes, using Level 2 inputs (i.e., observable market prices in less-than-active markets) at December 31, 2019, the carrying values of the Notes approximated their fair values, as the interest rates were similar to the current rates at which we could borrow funds over the selected interest periods. At December 31, 2019, based on Level 2 inputs, the fair value of the 2026 and the 2047 Notes were $893 million and $456 million, respectively.
Using Level 2 inputs at December 31, 2018, the carrying values of the 2021 Notes and the 2022 Notes approximated their fair values, as the interest rates were similar to the current rates at which we could borrow funds over the selected interest periods. At December 31, 2019, based on Level 2 inputs, the fair values of the 2026 Notes, the 2027 Notes, and the 2047 Notes were $800 million, $376 million, and $360 million, respectively.

1.2 Data Centres
Note: 1. Due to its business nature, the significant air emissions of the Group are GHG emissions, arising mainly from fuels and purchased electricity produced from fossil fuels.
2. The Group’s GHG inventory includes carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. GHG emissions data for the year ended 31 December 2019 is presented in carbon dioxide equivalent and is calculated based on the “2017 Baseline Emission Factors for Regional Power Grids in China for CDM and CCER Projects” issued by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment of China, and the “2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories” issued by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
3. Diesel is consumed by backup power generators.
4. Hazardous waste produced by the Group’s office buildings mainly includes waste toner cartridge and waste ink cartridge from printing equipment. Waste toner cartridge and waste ink cartridge are centralised and disposed of by printing suppliers. Such data covers all office buildings of the Group in Mainland China.
5. Non-hazardous waste produced by the Group’s office buildings mainly includes domestic waste and non-hazardous office waste. Domestic waste is disposed of by the property management companies and kitchen waste recycling vendors, and its data is not available, therefore estimation of domestic waste is made with reference to “Handbook on Domestic Discharge Coefficients for Towns in the First Nationwide Census on Contaminant Discharge” published by the State Council. Non-hazardous office waste is centralised for disposal by vendors; hence such data covers all office buildings of the Group in Mainland China.
6. Hazardous waste produced by the Group’s data centres mainly includes waste lead-acid accumulators. Waste lead-acid accumulators are disposed of by qualified waste recycling vendors.
7. Non-hazardous waste produced by the Group’s data centres mainly includes waste servers and waste hard drives. Waste servers and destroyed waste hard drives are centralised and recycled by waste recycling vendors. Such data covers all the Group’s data centres.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash flows from operations provided a source of funds of $1,066 million, $1,058 million and $1,310 million during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. This increase was driven primarily by lower employee annual incentive payments, lower retailer investments and lower restructuring payments, partially offset by working capital timing and higher interest and tax payments during the year ended December 31, 2019.
We provide for additional liquidity through several sources, including maintaining an adequate cash balance, access to global funding sources and a committed revolving credit facility. The following table provides a summary of the major sources of liquidity for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017:
Of the $454 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2019, approximately $383 million was held in jurisdictions outside the U.S. We regularly review the amount of cash and cash equivalents held outside of the U.S. to determine the amounts necessary to fund the current operations of our foreign operations and their growth initiatives and amounts needed to service our U.S. indebtedness and related obligations.

Network advertising revenue is generated primarily from the sale of television airtime for programs or advertisements. Network advertising revenue is recognized when the program or advertisement is broadcast. Revenues are reported net of agency commissions, which are calculated as a stated percentage applied to gross billings. The Network advertising contracts are generally short-term in nature.
Network distribution revenue consists of payments received from cable, satellite and other multiple video program distribution systems for their retransmission of our network content. Network distribution revenue is recognized as earned over the life of the retransmission consent contract and varies from month to month.
Variable fees are usage/sales based, calculated on the average number of subscribers, and recognized as revenue when the usage occurs. Transaction prices are based on the contract terms, with no material judgments or estimates.
Broadcast station revenue is generated primarily from the sale of television airtime in return for a fixed fee or a portion of the related ad sales recognized by the third party. In a typical broadcast station revenue agreement, the licensee of a station makes available, for a fee, airtime on its station to a party which supplies content to be broadcast during that airtime and collects revenue from advertising aired during such content.
Broadcast station revenue is recognized over the life of the contract, when the program is broadcast. The fees that we charge can be fixed or variable and the contracts that the Company enters into are generally short-term in nature. Variable fees are usage/salesbased and recognized as revenue when the subsequent usage occurs. Transaction prices are based on the contract terms, with no material judgments or estimates.

Research and Development
Research and development expenses in 2019 decreased by $4.6 million, or 21%, as compared to 2018. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in the number of full-time research and development personnel, resulting in a decrease of $3.1 million in compensation expense and $0.6 million in allocated facilities and information technology costs as compared to 2018. We did not incur restructuring costs in 2019, as compared to 2018 when $0.1 million was incurred as part of the 2018 Restructuring Plan (refer to Note 4 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements). Finally, the decrease was further driven by lower professional fees of $0.6 million, as we reduced the number of research and development contractors as compared to 2018.

Note 15. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
We calculate basic net income (loss) per share by dividing earnings allocated to common stockholders by the basic weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted weighted-average shares is computed using basic weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus any potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the treasury-stock-type method and the if-converted method, except when their effect is anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities include stock options, restricted stock units, and the outstanding senior convertible debentures.
The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to stockholders:
1 As a result of our net loss attributable to stockholders for fiscal 2019, 2018, and 2017, the inclusion of all potentially dilutive stock options, restricted stock units, and common shares under noted warrants and convertible debt would be anti-dilutive. Therefore, those stock options, restricted stock units and shares were excluded from the computation of the weighted-average shares for diluted net loss per share for such periods.
