Public offering warrants, description The Company issued warrants totaling 122,500 units to the placement agents (the “Public Offering Warrants”). The warrants carry a term of five years and shall be exercisable at $5.50 per share. Management determined that these warrants are equity instruments because the warrants are both a) indexed to its own stock; and b) classified in shareholders’ equity. The warrants were recorded at their fair value on the date of grant as a component of shareholders’ equity. As of December 31, 2019, the total number of warrants outstanding was 122,500 with weighted average remaining life of 4.26 years. No warrants were exercised as of December 31, 2019. The fair value of this Public Offering Warrants was $356,200, which was considered a direct cost of IPO and included in additional paid-in capital. The fair value has been estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: market value of underlying share of $5.00, risk free rate of 2.2%; expected term of 5 years; exercise price of the warrants of $5.5, volatility of 71.9%; and expected future dividends of nil.
