Note 13. STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

     During 2005, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock option plan and reserved 25,000 shares of its Common Stock for issuance under the plan. The stock option plan permits the Company to grant non-qualified and incentive stock options to employees, directors, and consultants. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black Scholes option pricing model using weighted average assumptions for grants as follows:  expected life – 3.5 – 5 years, risk-free interest rate – 0.92% - 1.8%, volatility – 25% and no dividends.

 

The expected life is the number of years that the Company estimates, based upon history, that options will be outstanding prior to exercise or forfeiture.  Expected life is determined using the “simplified method” permitted by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107.  In addition to the inputs referenced above regarding the option pricing model, the Company adjusts the stock-based compensation expense for estimated forfeiture rates that are revised prospectively according to forfeiture experience.  The stock volatility factor is based on the New York Stock Exchange ARCA Defense Index.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of 15,000 options to the non-employee members of the Company’s Board of Directors.  These options vested immediately.

 

At a Special Meeting of Stockholders held on July 29, 2010, the stockholders approved the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan and the issuance of 275,788 options under the plan to various key employees of the Company.  This plan had previously been unanimously adopted by the Board of Directors.

 

The Company recorded expenses of $131,000 and $368,000 in its consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and is included as a component of general and administrative expense.

  

A summary of the status of the Company's stock options as of December 31, 2011, and changes during the two years then ended is presented below.
