Stockholders' Equity and Common Stock Warrants
 
 
2019
Common Stock and Warrant Offering
 
In
May 2019,
the Company completed a registered direct public offering of
1,317,060
shares of Common Stock and a private placement of warrants to purchase
1,317,060
shares of Common Stock. The shares of Common Stock and warrants were sold for a combined purchase price of
$4.895
for total net proceeds of
$5.6
million. The warrants are exercisable beginning on the date of their issuance until
November 29, 2024
at an initial exercise price equal to
$5.00.
 
In addition, at the closing of such offering described in the foregoing paragraph, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to
65,853
shares of Common Stock to designees of the placement agent. The placement agent's warrants have an exercise price of
$6.11875
per share, a term of
five
years from the date of issuance and otherwise substantially similar terms to the form of the investor warrant.
 
During its evaluation of equity classification for the Common Stock warrants, the Company considered the conditions as prescribed within ASC
815
-
40,
Derivatives and Hedging, Contracts in an Entity’s own Equity
(“ASC
815
-
40”
). The conditions within ASC
815
-
40
are
not
subject to a probability assessment. The warrants do
not
fall under the liability criteria within ASC
480
Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity
as they are
not
puttable and do
not
represent an instrument that has a redeemable underlying security. The warrants do meet the definition of a derivative instrument under ASC
815,
but are eligible for the scope exception as they are indexed to the Company’s own stock and would be classified in permanent equity if freestanding.
