NOTE 10 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Common Stock

 

At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders held in July 2020, the Company approved the Restated 2014 Omnibus Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2014 LTIP”) in which the Company’s directors, officers, employees and consultants are eligible to participate. The 2014 LTIP terminated on September 3, 2024, and no future awards may be granted pursuant to the 2014 LTIP. Previously granted awards under the 2014 LTIP will remain outstanding until they expire by their terms or under the terms of the 2014 LTIP.

 

 

On June 12, 2024, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2024 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2024 LTIP”), which went into effect upon shareholder approval. The maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be delivered pursuant to awards granted under the 2024 LTIP is 1,000,000, subject to increase by any awards under the 2014 LTIP (i) that were outstanding on or after June 12, 2024, and that, on or after such date, are forfeited, expire or are canceled, and (ii) any shares subject to awards relating to common stock under the 2014 LTIP that are settled in cash on or after June 12, 2024 (the “Prior LTIP Awards”). The 2024 LTIP also provides that, to the extent an award under the 2024 LTIP or a Prior LTIP Award is forfeited, expires or is canceled, in whole or in part, the shares subject to such forfeited, expired or canceled award may again be awarded under the 2024 LTIP. As of December 31, 2024, a total of 742,405 shares had been issued under the 2014 LTIP, 2,543 shares had been issued under the 2024 LTIP and 1,000,137 were available for issuance under the 2024 LTIP.

 

On August 1, 2023, the Company closed the Applied Asset Purchase. Included in the purchase price was 73,809 shares of the Company’s common stock. See Note 3 for more information regarding the acquisition of Applied.

 

In February 2023, the Company entered into a Controlled Equity OfferingSM Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., as sales agent (“Cantor”), pursuant to which the Company could offer and sell from time to time, to or through Cantor, shares of the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $75,000,000.

 

Sales of the shares were made in sales deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Upon delivery of a placement notice and subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, Cantor agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, applicable state and federal law, rules and regulations and the rules of The Nasdaq Capital Market to sell the shares from time to time based upon the Company’s instructions, including any price, time period or size limits specified by the Company. The Company had no obligation to sell any of the shares under the Sales Agreement and could suspend or terminate the offering of its common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement upon notice to Cantor and subject to other conditions. Cantor’s obligations to sell the shares under the Sales Agreement were subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including customary closing conditions. Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, the Company paid Cantor a commission of 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from each sale of the shares.

 

In 2023, the Company sold an aggregate of 26,143 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $1.1 million and net proceeds of approximately $0.9 million pursuant to the Sales Agreement. The Company paused the offering at the end of the first quarter of 2023 and did not reactivate it during the remainder of 2023. The Form S-3 registration statement for this offering expired at the beginning of 2024.

 

In April 2022, the Company closed a merger transaction with Precision Healing pursuant to which Precision Healing became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement, holders of Precision Healing common stock and preferred stock, other than the Company, were entitled to receive closing consideration, consisting of $125,966 in cash consideration, which was paid to stockholders who were not accredited investors, 165,738 shares of the Company’s common stock, which was paid only to accredited investors, and the payment in cash of approximately $0.6 million of transaction expenses of Precision Healing. The Company recorded the issuance of the 165,738 shares to accredited investors and cash payments to nonaccredited investors based on the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on April 4, 2022, which was $30.75.

 

Upon the closing of the merger, the Precision Healing outstanding options previously granted under the Precision Healing Plan converted, pursuant to their terms, into options to acquire an aggregate of 144,191 shares of Company common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $10.71 per share. These options expire between August 2030 and April 2031. In addition, outstanding and unexercised Precision Healing warrants converted into rights to receive warrants to purchase (i) 4,424 shares of the Company’s common stock with an initial exercise price of $7.32 per share and an expiration date of April 22, 2031, and (ii) 12,301 shares of the Company’s common stock with an initial exercise price of $12.05 per share and an expiration date of August 10, 2030. Concurrent with the assumption of the Precision Healing Plan, the Company terminated the ability to offer future awards under the Precision Healing Plan.

 

Pursuant to the merger agreement, upon the achievement of certain performance thresholds, the securityholders of Precision Healing, including the holders of options and warrants to purchase Precision Healing common stock and certain persons promised options to purchase Precision Healing common stock, were entitled to receive payments of up to $10.0 million, which was accounted for as contingent consideration pursuant to ASC 805. The earnout consideration was payable in cash or, at the Company’s election, payable to accredited investors in shares of Company common stock at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) $27.13 or (ii) the average closing price of Company common stock for the 20 trading days prior to the date such earnout consideration is due and payable. The Company reviewed the performance thresholds necessary to trigger an earnout payment as of December 31, 2024 and deemed the performance thresholds to be unachievable. Therefore, no earnout consideration is expected to be paid to the securityholders of Precision Healing.

 

 

Restricted Stock Awards

 

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company issued restricted stock awards under the 2014 LTIP which are subject to certain vesting provisions and other terms and conditions set forth in each recipient’s respective restricted stock agreement. The Company issued 161,908 shares, net of forfeitures, under the 2014 LTIP and 2,543 shares under the 2024 LTIP, of restricted common stock to employees, directors, and certain advisors of the Company during the year ended December 31, 2024. The fair value of these awards was $5,747,656 based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the respective grant dates, which will be recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards.

 

Share-based compensation expense of $4,436,048 and $3,442,722 was recognized in “Operating expenses” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations during the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

 

At December 31, 2024, there was $4,189,272 of total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to unvested share-based equity awards. Unrecognized share-based compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years.
