Warrants

 

Warrant Dividend Issued to Preferred Shareholders

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022 (as described in Note 16), the Company sold an aggregate of 481,566 units, each unit consists of one (1) series B senior convertible preferred share and a three-year warrant to purchase one (1) common share at an exercise price of $1,200 per common share (subject to adjustments), which such exercise price was adjusted to $3.00 following the adjustments, and may be exercised on a cashless basis under certain circumstances. The embedded conversion options of the series B senior convertible preferred shares and warrants were clearly and closely related to the equity host and did not require bifurcation.

 

Accordingly, a portion of the proceeds were allocated to the warrants and preferred shares based on their relative fair value using the Geometric Brownian Motion Stock Path Monte Carlo Simulation. The assumptions used in the model were as follows: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 51.81%; (iii) weighted average risk-free interest rate of 0.31%; (iv) expected life of three years; (v) estimated fair value of the common shares of $776 per share; (vi) exercise price of $1,200; and (vii) various probability assumptions related to redemption and down round price adjustments. The fair value of the warrants was $379,553, resulting in the amount allocated to the warrants, based on their relative fair value of $172,050, which was recorded as additional paid-in capital.

 

Warrant Dividend Issued to Common Shareholders

 

On January 3, 2023, the Company issued warrants for the purchase of 4,079 common shares as a dividend to common shareholders of record as of December 23, 2022, pursuant to a warrant agent agreement, dated January 3, 2023, with VStock Transfer, LLC. Each holder of common shares received a warrant to purchase one (1) common share for every ten (10) common shares owned as of the record date (with the number of shares underlying the warrant received rounded down to the nearest whole number). Each warrant represents the right to purchase common shares at an initial exercise price of $420 per share (subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the warrants). The Company may, at its option, voluntarily reduce the then-current exercise price to such amount and for such period or periods of time which may be through the expiration date as may be deemed appropriate by the board of directors. Cashless exercises of the warrants are not permitted. The warrants will generally be exercisable in whole or in part beginning on the later of (i) January 3, 2024 or (ii) the date that a registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to the issuance and registration of the common shares underlying the warrants has been filed with and declared effective by the SEC, and thereafter until January 3, 2026. The Company may redeem the warrants at any time in whole or in part at $0.001 per warrant (subject to equitable adjustment to reflect share splits, share dividends, share combinations, recapitalizations and like occurrences) upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the registered holders of the warrants. As a result of the issuance of warrants as a dividend to common shareholders, the Company recognized a deemed dividend of approximately $0.6 million, which was calculated using a Black-Scholes pricing model.

Warrants Issued in Public Equity Offering

 

On August 5, 2022, the Company issued a common share purchase warrant to each of Craft Capital Management LLC and R.F. Lafferty & Co. Inc., the representatives of the underwriters for the public offering described above, for the purchase of 358 common shares at an adjusted exercise price of $2.76 per share (subject to adjustments as defined in the warrant agreement). The warrants are exercisable at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, during the period commencing on February 5, 2023 and ending on August 2, 2027 and may be exercised on a cashless basis under certain circumstances.

 

On July 7, 2023 (as described above), the Company closed on a securities purchase agreement with certain purchasers and a placement agency agreement with Spartan, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to such purchasers prefunded warrants for the purchase of 55,000 common shares at an exercise price of $1.00 per common share.

 

The Company evaluated the prefunded warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the prefunded warrants and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815-40. The Company determined the prefunded warrants issued failed the indexation guidance under ASC 815-40, specifically, the prefunded warrants provide for a Black-Scholes value calculation in the event of certain transactions (“Fundamental Transactions”), which includes a floor on volatility utilized in the value calculation at 100% or greater. The Company has determined that this provision introduces leverage to the holders of the warrants that could result in a value that would be greater than the settlement amount of a fixed-for-fixed option on the Company’s own equity shares. Accordingly, pursuant to ASC 815-40, the Company recorded the fair value of the warrants as a liability upon issuance and marked to market each reporting period in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations until their exercise or expiration.

 

The fair value of the warrants deemed to be a liability, due to certain contingent put features, was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which was deemed to be an appropriate model due to the terms of the warrants issued, including a fixed term and exercise price. The assumptions used in the model were as follows: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 157.8%; (iii) risk-free interest rate of 5.3%; (iv) expected life of 30 days; (v) estimated fair value of the common shares of $22.04 per share; (vi) exercise price of $1.00.
