Stock-Based Compensation

 

Under our Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) and our Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”), we may grant options and/or RSUs or restricted stock awards to our directors, officers, employees and consultants.  The combined maximum number of our Common Shares that may be reserved for issuance under the Plan and the LTIP is a variable number equal to 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares on a non-diluted basis. Options and RSUs under the Plan and LTIP, respectively, are granted from time to time at the discretion of the Board, with vesting periods and other terms as determined by the Board.  Stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 is as follows:

The fair value of stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2014 (no stock options were granted for the year ended December 31, 2015) to employees, directors and consultants was estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Expected volatility

 

 

69.17

%  

 

Risk-free interest rate

 

 

1.75

%  

 

Expected life (years)

Dividend yield

 

 

N/A

 

 

Forfeiture assumption

 

 

10

%  

 

 

Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility.  Expected price volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common shares.  Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.  The expected term of the options granted represents the period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding.  The risk-free rate for the periods within the contractual term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant.
