Stock-Based Compensation |
Stock-Based Compensation | 6. Stock‑Based Compensation Our Board of Directors and the requisite stockholders previously approved the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. In October 2013, our Board of Directors approved the 2013 Equity Incentive plan (the 2013 Plan) and in November 2013 our stockholders approved the 2013 Plan. The 2013 Plan became effective as of December 3, 2013, the date of the Company’s IPO. As of December 2, 2013, we suspended the 2010 Plan and no additional awards may be granted under the 2010 Plan. Any shares of common stock covered by awards granted under the Prior Plans that terminate after December 2, 2013 by expiration, forfeiture, cancellation or other means without the issuance of such shares will be added to the 2013 Plan reserve. As of December 31, 2014, the total number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2013 Plan was 5,409,980, which includes 2,662,065 of common stock that were available for issuance under the Prior Plans as of the effective date of the 2013 Plan. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, beginning January 1, 2014, and continuing until the expiration of the 2013 Plan, the total number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2013 Plan will automatically increase annually on January 1 by 4% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of December 31 of the immediate preceding year. On January 1, 2014, the total number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2013 Plan was automatically increased by 1,254,179 shares, which number is included in the number of shares available for issuance above. As of December 31, 2014 a total of 1,063,500 options had been issued under the 2013 Plan. In November 2013, our Board of Directors and stockholders approved the 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), which became effective as of December 5, 2013. Under the ESPP our employees may elect to have between 1-15% of their compensation withheld to purchase Company stock at a discount. The ESPP has an initial two-year term that includes four six-month purchase periods and employee withholding amounts may be used to purchase Company stock during each six-month purchase period. The total number of shares that can be purchased with the withholding amounts are based on the lower of 85% of the Company’s stock price at the initial offering date or, 85% of the Company’s stock price at each purchase date. We have reserved a total of 581,286 shares of common stock for issuance under the ESPP. Unless otherwise determined by our Board, beginning on January 1, 2014, and continuing until the expiration of the ESPP, the total number shares of common stock available for issuance under the ESPP will automatically increase annually on January 1 by the lesser of (i) 1% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of December 31 of the immediately preceding year, or (ii) 621,814 shares of common stock. On January 1, 2014, the total number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the ESPP was automatically increased by 313,545 shares, which number is included in the number of shares reserved for issuance above. As of December 31, 2014, we have issued a total of 63,864 shares of common stock under the ESPP. Information with respect to stock options outstanding is as follows:

| (3) |  | The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $155,000 and $191,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 respectively. There were no option exercises in 2012.

We estimated the fair value of employee and non‑employee awards using the Black‑Scholes valuation model. The fair value of employee stock options is being amortized on a straight‑line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. Management’s estimates the probability of non‑employee awards being vested based upon an evaluation of the non‑employee achieving their specific performance goals. Options granted after our Initial Public Offering, are issued at the fair market value of our stock at the date the grant is approved by our board of directors. For 2013 options granted prior to our Initial Public Offering, we used and estimated fair value of $4.25 per share as determined by the board of directors based on input from management. For the options granted in the year ended December 31, 2012, we used an estimated fair value per share of $0.59, originally determined by our Board of Directors as of December 31, 2009. For options granted prior to 2012, w e used the capital asset valuation model to determine fair value with the following key assumptions: junior nature of the common stock to outstanding convertible preferred stock and convertible preferred promissory notes, conversion dilution, minority status and the illiquid nature of our common stock. The fair value of employee stock options was estimated using the following weighted average assumptions for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012

The expected term of stock options represents the average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding. The expected stock price volatility for our stock options for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012 was determined by examining the historical volatilities for industry peers and adjusting for differences in our life cycle and financing leverage. Industry peers consist of several public companies in the biopharmaceutical industry. We determined the average expected life of stock options based on the simplified method because our common stock has not been publicly traded for an extended period and we do not have a track record of establishing the volatility. For all option grants prior to our Initial Public Offering we were a privately held company. The risk‑free interest rate assumption is based on the U.S. Treasury instruments whose term was consistent with the expected term of our stock options. The expected dividend assumption is based on our history and expectation of dividend payouts. At December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the unamortized compensation expense related to unvested stock options was $7.6 million, $895,000 and $26,000, respectively. The remaining unamortized compensation expense will be recognized over the next 3.57 years At December 31, 2014, the unamortized compensation expense of $204,000 under our ESPP will be recognized in the next year.
