NOTE 7 – SALE OF COMMON STOCK
February 7th Financing
On February 7, 2020, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the February 7th financing) with A.G.P/Alliance Global Partners (AGP) pursuant to which the Company sold securities consisting of 3,837,000 Class A Units at a public offering price of $0.57 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock, and 5,313 Class B Units at a public offering price of $1,000 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, with a conversion price of $0.57 per share, convertible into 1,754.386 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,754.386 shares of common stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.57, are immediately exercisable and expire five years from the date of issuance.
The February 7th financing closed on February 11, 2020. AGP purchased the Class A and Class B Units at a seven-percent discount to the public offering price, for an aggregate discount of approximately $0.5 million. The Company incurred other offering expenses of approximately $0.5 million. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $6.5 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses.
After allocating proceeds to the warrants issued with the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, the effective conversion price of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was determined to be less than the fair value of the underlying common stock at the date of commitment, resulting in a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) at that date. Since the Series B Preferred Stock has no stated maturity or redemption date and is immediately convertible at the option of the holder, the discount created by the BCF of $1.3 million, based on intrinsic value, was charged to additional paid in capital as a “deemed dividend” and included in net loss to common stockholders.
During the first quarter of 2020, all 5,313 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into common stock.
During February and March 2020, 10.8 million of the warrants issued in the February 7th financing, with an exercise price of $0.57, were exercised for proceeds of approximately $6.2 million.
February 28th Financing
On February 28, 2020, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the February 28th Financing) with AGP, relating to the issuance and sale of 14,550,000 shares of common stock, in a registered direct public offering. The public offering price for each share of common stock was $1.10. The February 28th Financing closed on March 3, 2020. AGP purchased the shares at a seven percent discount to the then current public price, for an aggregate discount of $1.1 million. The Company incurred other offering expenses of approximately $0.1 million. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $14.8 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses.
November 2019 Financing
On November 14, 2019, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with AGP pursuant to which the Company sold securities consisting of 547,420 Class A Units at a public offering price of $1.94 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock, one warrant to purchase one share of common stock (“primary warrant”) and one-half of one warrant to purchase one half of one share common stock (“common warrant”), and 7,938 Class B Units at a public offering price of $1,000 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, with a conversion price of $1.94 per share, convertible into 515.464 shares of common stock, primary warrants to purchase 515.464 shares of common stock, and common warrants to purchase 257.732 shares of common stock. The primary warrants have an exercise price of $1.94, are immediately exercisable and expire five years from the date of issuance. The common warrants have an exercise price of $1.94, are exercisable and expire 12 months from the date of issuance. The common warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis at the option of the holder on the earlier of 30 days from issuance and the date by which an aggregate of $9.0 million of our securities were traded.
The November 2019 Financing closed on November 19, 2019. AGP purchased the Class A and Class B Units at a seven-percent discount to the public offering price, for an aggregate discount of approximately $0.6 million. The Company incurred other offering expenses of approximately $0.5 million. The Company received net proceeds from the November 2019 Financing of approximately $7.9 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses.
After allocating proceeds to the warrants issued with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the effective conversion price of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock was determined to be less than the fair value of the underlying common stock at the date of commitment, resulting in a BCF at that date. Since the Series A Preferred Stock has no stated maturity or redemption date and is immediately convertible at the option of the holder, the discount created by the BCF of $2.5 million, based on the intrinsic value, was charged to additional paid in capital as a “deemed dividend” and included in net loss to common stockholders.
As of December 31, 2019, all 7,938 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into common stock.
With the February 7th financing, warrants that were issued as part of the November 2019 financing were repriced at $0.57. As a result of the issuance of common stock in February 2020 for less than the November 2019 warrant exercise price, a repricing of the warrants issued in the November 2019 financing was triggered. The Company recognized a one-time non-cash “deemed dividend” of $0.5 million, representing the increase in the fair value of the warrants. The “deemed dividend” was charged to additional paid in capital and included in net loss to stockholders. During February and March 2020, 2.3 million of the warrants issued in the November 2019 financing, with an exercise price of $0.57, were exercised for proceeds of approximately $1.3 million.
December 2018 Financing
On December 7, 2018, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with AGP and Dawson James Securities, Inc. (collectively, the Underwriters) pursuant to which the Company sold securities consisting of 86,171 Class A Units at a public offering price of $35.00 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock, and 11,984 Class B Units at a public offering price of $1,000 per unit, with each unit consisting of one share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, with a conversion price of $35.00 per share convertible into 28.5714 shares of common stock, and warrants to purchase 28.5714 shares of Common Stock. The warrants have an exercise price of $35.00, are immediately exercisable and expire five years from the date of issuance.
The Company also granted the Underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 64,286 shares of common stock and/or additional warrants to purchase up to 64,286 additional shares of common stock.
The December 2018 Financing closed on December 11, 2018. The Underwriters purchased the Class A and Class B Units at a seven-percent discount to the public offering price, for an aggregate discount of approximately $1.1 million (or $2.40 per share). The Company incurred other offering expenses of approximately $0.4 million. The Company received net proceeds from the December 2018 Financing of approximately $13.6 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and other offering expenses.
Additionally, the Underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option related to the warrants and purchased additional warrants to acquire 64,000 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $6,000.
On December 13, 2018, the Underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option and purchased 25,000 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $0.8 million, net of an aggregate discount of $0.1 million (or $2.40 per share).
After allocating proceeds to the warrants issued with the Series A convertible preferred stock, the effective conversion price of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, after the bifurcation of the warrants, was determined to be less than the fair value of the underlying common stock at the date of commitment, resulting in a BCF at that date. Since the Series A Preferred Stock has no stated maturity or redemption date and is immediately convertible at the option of the holder, the discount created by the BCF of $3.3 million, based on the intrinsic value, was charged to additional paid in capital as a deemed dividend and included in net loss to common stockholders.
During the first quarter of 2019, the remaining 9,856 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into 281,610 shares of common stock. |
