Note 13. Common Stock Warrants

The Company has 19,144,120 common stock warrants outstanding at June 30, 2024. 17,118,074 of the warrants are publicly-traded (the “Westrock Public Warrants”) and 2,026,046 of the warrants are private placements warrants (the “Westrock Private Warrants” and together with the Westrock Public Warrants, the “Westrock Warrants”). The Westrock Warrants are included in warrant liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Westrock Warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of Common Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share.

The Westrock Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares, and will expire on August 26, 2027, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. Westrock may redeem the outstanding Westrock Public Warrants (i) in whole and not in part; (ii) at a price of $0.01 per warrant; (iii) upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and (iv) if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Common Shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before Westrock sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders equals or exceeds $18.00 per share. During any period when Westrock fails to maintain an effective registration statement registering the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Westrock Warrants, Westrock is required to permit holders of Westrock Warrants to exercise their Westrock Warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or another exemption.

If and when the Westrock Public Warrants become redeemable by Westrock, Westrock may exercise its redemption right even if Westrock is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

The Westrock Private Warrants are generally identical to the Westrock Public Warrants, except they cannot be redeemable by Westrock so long as they are held by the existing holders or its permitted transferees. Furthermore, the existing holders, or their permitted transferees, have the option to exercise the Westrock Private Warrants on a cashless basis.

We account for the Westrock Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815, under which the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment and must be recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, we classify the warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjust the warrants to fair value at each reporting period. The liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company re-measures the fair value of the Westrock Public Warrants based on the quoted market price of the Westrock Public Warrants. The Westrock Private Warrants are valued using a binomial lattice valuation model. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $1.6 million and $1.7 million of gains, respectively, related to the change in fair value of warrant liabilities, which is recognized in other (income) expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized $11.8 million and $6.3 million of losses, respectively, related to the change in fair value of warrant liabilities.
