2017
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
 
The
sixth
offering period under the Company’s
2017
Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
“2017
ESPP”) began on
January 1, 2019

2017
ESPP were
212,560
shares.
 
The Company estimates the fair value of purchase rights under the ESPP using a Black-Scholes valuation model.

The weighted average grant date fair value of the purchase rights issued under the
2017
ESPP during the

and

was
$0.33
and
$1.30,
respectively. 
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
During the
three
months ended
March 31, 2019
and
2018,
the Company granted stock options to employees to purchase
2,117,500
and
1,251,171
shares of common stock, respectively, with a weighted average grant date fair value of
$1.24
and $
2.77
per share, respectively. There were
no
stock options exercised during the
three
months ended
March 31, 2019
and
2018.
 
The Company estimated the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of employee stock options is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. The fair value of employee stock options granted was estimated using the following weighted average assumptions:

27,500
and
2,388
shares of common stock, respectively, with a weighted average grant date fair value of

and
$2.98,
respectively. There were
no
stock options exercised by nonemployees during the
three
months ended
March 31, 2019
and
2018.
  
The fair value of nonemployee stock options granted was estimated using the following weighted average assumptions:

Option-pricing models require the input of various subjective assumptions, including the option’s expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The expected stock price volatility is based on analysis of the Company’s stock price history over a period commensurate with the expected term of the options, trading volume of comparable companies’ stock, look-back volatilities and the Company specific events that affected volatility in a prior period. The expected term of employee stock options represents the weighted average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is based on the history of exercises and cancellations on all past option grants made by the Company, the contractual term, the vesting period and the expected remaining term of the outstanding options. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury interest rates whose term is consistent with the expected life of the stock options.
No
dividend yield is included as the Company has
not
issued any dividends and does
not
anticipate issuing any dividends in the future.
