As of September 30, 2024, there was $12,119 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested common stock option arrangements, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.21 years. As of September 30, 2024, there was $41,236 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock unit awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.34 years. As of September 30, 2024, there was $10,014 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested performance stock unit awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.32 years.
The fair value of each option award was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. As there was no public market for its common stock prior to March 25, 2021, which was the first day of trading, and as the trading history of the Company’s common stock is limited, the Company determined the expected volatility for options granted based on an analysis of reported data for a peer group of companies that issued options with substantially similar terms. The expected volatility of options granted has been determined using an average of the historical volatility measures of this peer group of companies. The expected life of options granted to employees was calculated using the simplified method, which represents the average of the contractual term of the option and the weighted-average vesting period of the option. The Company uses the simplified method because it does not have sufficient historical option exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on a treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected life of the share option. The Company has not paid, nor anticipates paying, cash dividends on its ordinary shares; therefore, the expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero.
The weighted-average assumptions utilized to determine the fair value of options granted to employees are presented in the following table:
