The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Binominal option-pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are the expected stock price volatility and the expected option term.

Expected volatility was calculated based upon historical volatilities of similar entities in the related sector index. The expected term of the options granted is derived from output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield from U.S. treasury bonds with an equivalent term. The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to pay dividend.

The following table lists the inputs to the binomial model used for the fair value measurement of equity-settled share options for the above plan for the following periods:

Based on the above inputs, the fair value of the options was determined at $10.50 - $11.01 at the grant dates during 2019.
