WARRANT LIABILITY

NOTE 9 - WARRANT LIABILITY

 

The Company analyzed the warrants issued in connection with the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (see Note 10) for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the instruments should be classified as a liability due to reset provisions and variability in exercise price resulting in there being no fixed value or explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon exercise. ASC 815 requires us to assess the fair market value of the derivative liability at the end of each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as other income or expense item.

 

 

The Company determined our warrant liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement during the year based on management’s estimate of the expected future cash flows required to settle the liabilities and used the Black Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value as of September 30, 2023. The Black Scholes model requires nine basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The fair value of each warrant is estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

 

For the period ended September 30, 2023, the estimated fair values of the warrant liabilities measured on a recurring basis are as follows:

 

   Nine Months Ended 
   September 30, 
   2023 
Expected term   1.71 - 2.50 years 
Expected average volatility   177 - 220%
Expected dividend yield   8.33%
