NOTE 7 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the grant-date fair value of an award, with the following assumptions for 2016: no dividend yield, expected volatility, based on the Company’s historical volatility, 74% to 78%, risk-free interest rate 1.39 to 1.80% and expected option life of 5 to 5.4 years.

 

As of March 31, 2016, there was $262,726 of unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested market-based share awards that is expected to be recognized through August 2018.

 

The following tables summarize all stock option and warrant activity of the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2016:
