NOTE 6 - Share-based Compensation

The fair value of share-based payments made to employees and non-employee directors was estimated on the measurement date using the Black-Scholes model using the following weighted average assumptions. The Company did not issue stock options during the six month period ended June 30, 2013.

 

    Three Month Period Ended     Six Month Period Ended  
    June 30,     June 30,  
    2013     2012     2013     2012  
Risk free interest rate     ––       0.76%       ––       0.80%  
Dividend yield     ––       0.0%       ––       0.0%  
Expected term (in years)     ––       7       ––       6.5  
Volatility     ––       104.95%       ––       103.12%  

 

We recorded stock compensation expense for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, as follows:

 

    Three Month Period Ended     Six Month Period Ended  
    June 30,     June 30,  
    2013     2012     2013     2012  
Research and development costs    $ 6,954     $ 7,119     $ 13,908     $ 13,487  
Sales and marketing costs     630       210       1,260       210  
General and administrative costs     1,378       38,523       49,314       75,822  
Cost of product sales     11,209       5,073       23,071       8,094  
Total    $      20,171     $      50,925     $   87,553     $   97,613  

  

Management applies an estimated forfeiture rate that is derived from historical employee termination data.  The estimated forfeiture rate applied for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was approximately 7% and 8%, respectively.

 

As of June 30, 2013, there was $5,389,589 of aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding stock options, including $4,492,875 of aggregate intrinsic value of exercisable stock options.  Intrinsic value is the total pretax intrinsic value for all “in-the-money” options (i.e., the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the quarter and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on June 30, 2013.  This amount will change based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock.

 

As of June 30, 2013, we had approximately $263,181 of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options.  We expect to recognize this compensation expense over a weighted average period of approximately 2.5 years.
