Authorized Capital

 

The holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of legally available funds. Upon the liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets of the Company that are legally available for distribution. As of December 31, 2023, 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock were authorized under the Company’s articles of incorporation.

 

Equity Distribution Agreement

 

On September 1, 2023, the Company entered into the Distribution Agreement, with Canaccord, pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell from time to time, through Canaccord as sales agent and/or principal, shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share having an aggregate offering price of up to $10.0 million. Due to the offering limitations applicable to the Company and in accordance with the terms of the Distribution Agreement, the Company may offer common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $2,392,514 pursuant to the prospectus supplement dated September 1, 2023 (the “Prospectus Supplement”). Subject to the terms and conditions of the Distribution Agreement, Canaccord may sell the common stock by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at-the-market offering”. The Company will pay Canaccord a commission equal to 3.0% of the gross sales price of the common stock sold through Canaccord under the Distribution Agreement and has also agreed to reimburse Canaccord for certain expenses. The Company may also sell common stock to Canaccord as principal for Canaccord’s own account at a price agreed upon at the time of sale. Any sale of common stock to Canaccord as principal would be pursuant to the terms of a separate terms agreement between the Company and Canaccord.

The Inducement Letters (as defined below within this Note 7) prohibits the Company from entering into any variable rate transaction as defined in the Inducement Letters, including the issuance of (1) any variable priced debt or equity securities or (2) transactions whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price, such as through an at-the-market offering or an equity line of credit. The variable rate transaction restriction expires after six-month from the closing date of December 28, 2023 for the Inducement Letters for an issuance through an at-the-market offering, and one-year for the remaining variable rate transactions. Subsequent to December 31, 2023, the limitation on the at-the-market offering was waived. See Note 12.

 

Lincoln Park Equity Line

 

On November 3, 2023, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement and a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), with Lincoln Park, pursuant to which Lincoln Park has committed to purchase up to $10.0 million of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share subject to certain limitations and satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

 

Under the terms and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to Lincoln Park, and Lincoln Park is obligated to purchase up to $10.0 million of the Company’s common stock (the “Purchase Shares”). However, such sales of common stock by the Company, if any, will be subject to important limitations set forth in the Purchase Agreement, including limitations on number of shares that may be sold. Sales may occur from time to time, at the Company’s sole discretion, over the 24-month period commencing on the date that the conditions to Lincoln Park’s purchase obligation set forth in the Purchase Agreement are satisfied, including that a registration statement on Form S-1 covering the resale of the shares of our common stock that have been and may be issued to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement, which the Company has filed with the SEC pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, is declared effective by the SEC and a final prospectus relating thereto is filed with the SEC.

 

Because the purchase price per share to be paid by Lincoln Park for the shares of common stock that we may elect to sell to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement, if any, will fluctuate based on the market prices of our Common Stock at the time we elect to sell shares to Lincoln Park pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, if any, it is not possible for us to predict the number of shares of Common Stock that we will sell to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement, the purchase price per share that Lincoln Park will pay for shares purchased from us under the Purchase Agreement, or the aggregate gross proceeds that we will receive from those purchases by Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company has issued no shares of common stock through the Equity Line or the Distribution Agreement. The Company had capitalized deferred offering costs of $567,603 related to establishing the Distribution Agreement with Canaccord and the Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park and no reductions to additional paid in capital. Of this amount, $255,107 represents the fair value of 139,403 shares of common stock issued to Lincoln Park as consideration for its commitment under the Purchase Agreement.

In addition, Enveric granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 60,000 shares of common stock and/or warrants to purchase up to an additional 60,000 shares of common stock at the public offering price, which the underwriter has partially exercised for warrants to purchase up to 60,000 shares of common stock. At closing, Enveric received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $9.1 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses with $5.8 million allocated to equity, $3.6 million to warrant liability and the remaining $0.3 million recorded as an expense.

On May 3, 2022, our board of directors (“Board”) adopted the First Amendment (the “Plan Amendment”) to the Enveric Biosciences, Inc. 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) to (i) increase the aggregate number of shares available for the grant of awards by 146,083 shares to a total of 200,000 shares, and (ii) add an “evergreen” provision whereby the number of shares authorized for issuance pursuant to awards under the Incentive Plan will be automatically increased on the first trading date immediately following the date the Company issues any share of common stock (defined below) to any person or entity, to the extent necessary so that the number of shares of the Company’s common stock authorized for issuance under the Incentive Plan will equal the greater of (x) 200,000 shares, and (y) 15% of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of such issuance date (the “Evergreen Provision”). The Plan Amendment was approved by the Company’s shareholders at a special meeting of the Company’s shareholders held on July 14, 2022.

Options granted during the years ended December 31, 2022 were valued using the Black Scholes model with the following assumptions:

 

   December 31, 2022 
Term (years)   5.5 
Stock price  $3.07 
Exercise price  $3.07 
Dividend yield    
Expected volatility   112.0%
Risk free interest rate   3.9%

 

The above assumptions are determined by the Company as follows:

 

  Stock price – Based on closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.
     
  Weighted average risk-free interest rate — Based on the daily yield curve rates for U.S. Treasury obligations with maturities, which correspond to the expected term of the Company’s stock options.
     
  Dividend yield — The Company has not paid any dividends on common stock since its inception and does not anticipate paying dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future.
     
  Expected volatility — Based on the historical volatility of comparable companies in a similar industry.
     
  Expected term — The Company has had no stock options exercised since inception. The expected option term represents the period that stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding based on the simplified method provided in Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107, Share-Based Payment, which averages an award’s weighted-average vesting period and expected term for “plain vanilla” share options.

 

The Company’s stock based compensation expense, recorded within general and administrative expense, related to stock options for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $156,075 and $180,042, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

On February 11, 2022, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (the “Underwriter”). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company agreed to sell, in a firm commitment offering, 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and accompanying warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 400,000 shares of its common stock (“February 2022 Warrants”), as well as up to 60,000 additional shares of common stock and/or warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 60,000 shares of its common stock that may be purchased by the Underwriter pursuant to a 45-day option granted to the Underwriter by the Company (the “Offering”). Each share of common stock was sold together with a common warrant to purchase one share of common stock, at an exercise price of $27.50 per share. Such common warrants were immediately exercisable and will expire five years from the date of issuance. There is not expected to be any trading market for the common warrants issued in the Offering. The combined public offering price of each share of common stock and accompanying common warrant sold in the Offering was $25.00. On February 14, 2022, the Underwriter exercised its option to purchase an additional 60,000 warrants.

 

In connection with the Registered Direct (“RD”) Offering and the Private Investment in Public Entity (“PIPE”) Offering entered into on July 22, 2022, the Company entered into Warrant Amendment (the “Warrant Amendments”) with the investors in both offerings to amend certain existing warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 122,000 shares of common stock that were previously issued to the investors, with an exercise price of $27.50 per share (subsequent to the 1-for-50 reverse stock split that occurred on July 14, 2022) and expiration date of February 15, 2027. Pursuant to the Warrant Amendments, the previously issued warrants were amended, effective upon the closing of the offerings, so that the amended warrants have a reduced exercise price of $7.78 per share and expire five and one-half years following the closing of the offerings. In connection with this transaction, the Company determined the fair value of the February 2022 Warrants immediately prior to the Warrant Amendment and the fair value of the amended warrants immediately after the Warrant Amendment. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the incremental change in fair value was deemed to be $251,357, which was included as equity issuance costs related to the RD and PIPE financing transactions.

 

The warrants assumed pursuant to the acquisition of MagicMed contain certain down round features, which were not triggered by the February 2022 and July 2022 public offerings, that would require adjustment to the exercise price upon certain events when the offering price is less than the stated exercise price.

 

The following table summarizes information about investment options outstanding at December 31, 2023 and 2022:

 

   Investment options outstanding   Weighted average exercise price   Weighted average remaining life   Intrinsic value 
Outstanding at January 1, 2022      $        —   $     
Issued   1,070,000   $7.93         
Outstanding at December 31, 2022   1,070,000   $7.93    5.1   $

Exercisable at December 31, 2023   70,000   $10.00    4.1   $ 

 

In connection with the Registered Direct Securities Purchase Agreement the Company issued unregistered preferred investment options to purchase up to 375,000 shares of common stock. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the RD Preferred Investment Options became immediately exercisable at an exercise price equal to $7.78 per share of common stock. The RD Preferred Investment Options are exercisable for five and one-half years from the date of issuance.

 

In connection with the PIPE Securities Purchase Agreement the Company issued unregistered preferred investment options to purchase up to 625,000 shares of the common stock. Subject to certain ownership limitations, PIPE Preferred Investment Options became immediately exercisable at an exercise price equal to $7.78 per share of common stock. The PIPE Preferred Investment Options are exercisable for five and one-half years from the date of issuance.

 

On July 26, 2022, in connection with the RD Offering and PIPE Offering, the Company issued preferred investment options (the “Placement Agent Preferred Investment Options”) to an entity to purchase up to 70,000 shares of the common stock for acting as a placement agent. The Placement Agent Preferred Investment Options have substantially the same terms as the RD Preferred Investment Options and the PIPE Preferred Investments Options, except the Placement Agent Preferred Investment Options have an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The Placement Agent Preferred Investment Options are exercisable for five years from the date of the commencement of the RD Offering and PIPE Offering.

 

On December 28, 2023, the Company entered into warrant exercise inducement offer letters (the “Inducement Letters”) with certain holders (the “Holders”) of the February 2022 Post-Modification Warrants and RD and PIPE preferred investment options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Existing Warrants and Investment Options”) pursuant to which the Holders agreed to exercise for cash their Existing Warrants and Investment Options to purchase 1,122,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, in the aggregate, at a reduced exercised price of $1.37 per share (from an original exercise price of $7.78 per share), in exchange for the Company’s agreement to issue new warrants (the “Inducement Warrants”) to purchase up to 2,244,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Inducement Warrant Shares”), and the Holders to make a cash payment of $0.125 per Inducement Warrant share for total proceeds of $280,500. In January 2024, the Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $1,817,640 from the exercise of the Existing Warrants and Investment Options by the Holders and the sale of the Inducement Warrants. Because the Existing Warrants and Investment Options by the Holders and the sale of the Inducement Warrants that exercised on December 28, 2023 and unsettled until January 2024, the proceeds are included in the consolidated balance sheet as a subscription receivable as of December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, 418,000 shares of the Existing Warrants and Investment Options exercised were considered issued as the Company had the enforceable right to the obtain the cash proceeds, which were in-transit, and the Holders were no longer able to rescind the exercise election. Due to the beneficial ownership limitation provisions, 704,000 shares of the Existing Warrants and Investment Options exercised were initially unissued and held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until notice is received from the Holder that the shares may be issued in compliance with such limitation. The Company engaged Roth Capital Partners, LLC (“Roth”) to act as its financial advisor in connection with the transactions summarized above and will pay Roth approximately $144,000 for its services, in addition to reimbursement for certain expenses. Roth was also issued warrants to purchase up to 67,320 shares of common stock. The Roth Warrants have the same terms as the Inducement Warrants. The grant date fair value of these Roth Warrants was estimated to be $77,991 on December 28, 2023 and were charged to additional paid in capital as issuance costs. The Company also incurred legal fees of $17,254 related to the transactions above that were charged to additional paid in capital as issuance costs.

The Company also agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-3 covering the resale of the Inducement Warrant Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise of the Inducement Warrants (the “Resale Registration Statement”) by January 8, 2024 (filed January 11, 2024). In the Inducement Letters, the Company agreed not to issue any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents or to file any other registration statement with the SEC (in each case, subject to certain exceptions) for a period ending on February 26, 2024. The Company also agreed not to effect or agree to effect any variable rate transaction (as defined in the Inducement Letters) until December 28, 2024. See the Equity Distribution Agreement section of this Note.

 

In connection with this transaction, the Company determined the fair value of the Existing Warrants and Investment Options immediately prior to the Inducement Letters and the fair value of the amended warrants and investment options immediately after the Inducement Letters. The pre-modification measurement of fair value of the Existing Warrants and Investment Options were determined utilizing a Black-Scholes model considering all relevant assumptions current at the date of modification (i.e. for the Existing Warrants share price of $1.56, exercise price of $7.78, term of 3.6 years, volatility of 94%, risk-free rate of 3.96%, and expected dividend rate of 0%, resulting in a fair value per share of $.54 and for the Investment Options share price of $1.56, exercise price of $7.78, term of 4.1 years, volatility of 95%, risk-free rate of 3.90%, and expected dividend rate of 0%, resulting in a fair value per share of $.62). The total fair value of the 122,000 Existing Warrants and 1,000,000 Investment Options was $65,349 and $618,648, respectively. The post-modification fair value was determined using the intrinsic value of $0.19 due to the inducement and totaled $23,180 and $190,000 for the Existing Warrants and Investment Options, respectively. The change in fair value from the date of the modification prior to modification and the fair value on the date of the modification after the modification, but prior to exercise was $470,817, which was reflected as an inducement gain, within other expenses on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

The grant date fair value of these Inducement Warrants was estimated to be $2,599,552 on December 28, 2023 and the proceeds of $280,500, which were received on January 2, 2024, for the issuance of the Inducement Warrants is reflected as inducement expense, within other expenses on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

The Company established the initial fair value of its equity classified Inducement Warrants at the date of issuance on December 28, 2023. The Company used a Black Scholes valuation model in order to determine their value. The key inputs into the Black Scholes valuation model for the valuation of the warrants are below:

Series C Preferred Shares

 

On May 3, 2022, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) declared a dividend of one one-thousandth of a share of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”) for each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock held of record as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 13, 2022 (the “Record Date”). This dividend was based on the number of outstanding shares of common stock prior to the Reverse Stock Split. The outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock were entitled to vote together with the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, as a single class, exclusively with respect to a proposal giving the Board the authority, as it determines appropriate, to implement a reverse stock split within twelve months following the approval of such proposal by the Company’s stockholders (the “Reverse Stock Split Proposal”), as well as any proposal to adjourn any meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of voting on the Reverse Stock Split Proposal (the “Adjournment Proposal”).
