Valuation of Warrant Liability

 

The warrant liability in the table above was composed of the fair value of a warrant to purchase shares of common stock that were issued to the Company’s placement agent in connection with the Series A Preferred offering (see Note 6). The fair value of the warrant liability was determined based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represented a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company used the BSM, which incorporates assumptions and estimates, to value the warrant. Estimates and assumptions impacting the fair value measurement included the fair value per share of the underlying shares of common stock, the remaining contractual term of the warrant, risk-free interest rate, expected dividend yield and expected volatility of the price of the underlying common stock. The Company determined the fair value per share of the underlying common stock by taking into consideration the most recent sales of its preferred stock, results obtained from third-party valuations and additional factors that were deemed relevant. The Company historically had been a private company and lacked company-specific historical and implied volatility information of its common stock. Therefore, the Company estimated its expected stock volatility based on the historical volatility of publicly traded peer companies for a term equal to the remaining contractual term of the warrant. The risk-free interest rate was determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve for time periods approximately equal to the remaining contractual term of the warrant. The Company estimated a 0% expected dividend yield based on the fact that the Company has never paid or declared dividends and does not intend to do so in the foreseeable future.

 

In November 2018, in connection with the Company’s IPO, the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrant became fixed (see Note 8). The Company remeasured the estimated fair value on the date of the IPO and reclassified this amount to additional paid-in-capital.

 

The following table provides a roll forward of the aggregate fair values of the Company’s warrant liability, for which fair value is determined using Level 3 inputs:
