NOTE 5 – STOCK WARRANTS
The following table summarizes information with respect to outstanding warrants to purchase common stock of the Company at March 31, 2013:
On January 1, 2013, the Company issued warrants to non-employees to purchase 10,800 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $12.00 per share expiring five years from the date of issuance vesting ratably over twelve months beginning January 1, 2013 in connection with services.
The Company measures the fair value of the vested portion of the issued warrants based on a Binomial option pricing model using certain assumptions discussed in the following paragraph, and the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the date of the fair value determination.
The assumptions used in the valuation of warrants which vested during the three months ended March 31, 2013 were as follows:
The risk-free rate of return is based on the yield of Daily U.S. Treasury Yield Curve Rates with terms equal to the life of the warrants as of the grant date. The expected stock price volatility is based on comparable companies’ historical stock price volatility since the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data because its equity shares have been publicly traded for only a limited period of time.
Compensation of $10,435 related to vested warrants was recognized for the three month period ended March 31, 2013.
As of March 31, 2013, unrecognized compensation related to unvested warrants based on the market price of the Company’s common stock on such date was $31,306. |
