NOTE

7.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock-based compensation expense was

$93,360

for the

first

nine

months of fiscal

2019

and

$40,920

for the

first

nine

months of fiscal

2018.

Stock-based compensation expenses were due to the automatic issuance to our non-employee directors of options to purchase

1,000

shares of stock on their reelection to our Board. We calculate the share-based compensation expense using the Black-Scholes standard option-pricing model. The increase in stock-based compensation expense for fiscal

2019

compared to fiscal

2018

was due to an increase in the model valuation for the same number of options to purchase shares.
