Yes, there is a cost basis. Your employer should have included the value of the stock on the day you received it in your taxable income. That amount will be included in box 1 of your W-2 for the year you received it. Your employer may have noted the amount in box 14 of your W-2. Since you have/will pay tax on the value, your cost basis is that value.
