Stock Options

 

Valuation

 

In applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model to stock options, the Company used the following weighted average assumptions:

 

    For The Three Months Ended 
    March 31,  
    2016   2015
         
Risk free interest rate   1.63% to 2.12%   n/a
Dividend yield   0.00%   n/a
Expected volatility   199% to 200.0%   n/a
Expected life in years   5.5 to 10.0   n/a

 

Grants

 

The weighted average fair value of the stock options granted during the three months ended 31, 2016 was $0.24 per share. There were no stock options granted during the three months March 31, 2015.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company granted options to consultants and directors of the Company to purchase an aggregate of 172,254 shares of common stock under a previously approved plan at exercise prices ranging between $0.24 and $0.25 per share for an aggregate grant date value of $41,379.  The options vested on the grant date and have a term of ten years. 

Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options was recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses and totaled $75,138 and $78,789 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

As of March 31, 2016, stock-based compensation expense related to stock options of $996,064 remains unamortized, including $104,495 which is being amortized over the weighted average remaining period of 2.0 years.  The remaining $891,569 is related to a performance based option where vesting is currently deemed to be improbable and no amount is being amortized.
