Convertible Senior Notes
On February 19, 2019 and March 1, 2019, the Company completed a private placement of $78.5 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.50% convertible senior notes due 2024 (the “Notes”). The Notes were sold in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Net proceeds from the offering were $75.7 million.
The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and accrue interest payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, at a rate of 6.50% per annum. The Notes will mature on March 1, 2024, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding November 1, 2023, the Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders only upon the satisfaction of certain circumstances. Thereafter, the Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders at any time until the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at its election. The initial conversion rate was 185.8045 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $5.38 per share), subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events.
The Company may redeem all, or any portion, of the Notes for cash if the last reported sale price per share of the Company's common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such redemption notice. The redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.
Initially, in accounting for the issuance of the Notes, the Company separated the Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of similar debt instruments, which do not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the conversion option for the Notes was $16.3 million and was recorded as a debt discount, which was being amortized to interest expense at an effective interest rate of 13.1%. In addition, the Company allocated $592,000 of debt issuance costs to the equity component and the remaining debt issuance costs of $2.2 million were allocated to the liability component, which were being amortized to interest expense under the effective interest rate method.
On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which is intended to simplify the accounting for convertible instruments. The ASU eliminates the cash conversion feature models in ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, which required an issuer of certain convertible debt to separately account for embedded conversion features as a component of equity. Instead, an issuer will account for these securities as a single unit of account, unless the conversion feature meets certain criteria. The Company adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective method, and recorded a net reduction to accumulated deficit of $1.8 million, a decrease to additional paid-in capital of $3.3 million, and an increase to convertible senior notes of $1.5 million to reflect the impact of the accounting change. The Notes are now accounted for as a single liability measured at amortized cost, as no other embedded features require bifurcation and recognition as derivatives.
The balance of the Notes at September 30, 2022 was as follows:
Original principal amount$78,500,000 
Principal amount converted into common shares(62,085,000)
Unamortized debt issuance cost(202,563)
Accrued interest88,915 
     Net carrying amount $16,301,352 

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized $313,000 and $940,000, respectively, of interest expense related to the Notes, of which $267,000 and $800,000, respectively, related to the contractual interest coupon. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $476,000 and $1.4 million,
respectively, of interest expense related to the Notes, of which $267,000 and $800,000, respectively, related to the contractual interest coupon.
As of September 30, 2022, future minimum payments due under the Notes, representing contractual amounts due, including interest based on the fixed rate of 6.5% per annum, were as follows:
2022$— 
20231,067,000 
202416,948,000 
Total$18,015,000 

December 2019 Convertible Bonds
On December 26, 2019, the Company closed a private placement of convertible promissory notes (the “December 2019 Bonds”) with an aggregate principal amount of 4.7 billion KRW (USD $4.1 million based on the exchange rate on the date of issuance) issued to a Korea-based institutional investor. Net proceeds from the offering were $4.0 million.
The December 2019 Bonds, which were unsecured obligations of the Company, were issued on December 31, 2019 and accrued interest at a coupon rate of 1.00% per annum, payable quarterly. The December 2019 Bonds were scheduled to mature on December 31, 2024, unless earlier converted or repurchased. On March 17, 2021, the December 2019 Bonds were converted in full into an aggregate of 1,009,450 shares of the Company's common stock, leaving no further December 2019 Bonds outstanding. Upon conversion, the $4.4 million carrying value of the December 2019 Bonds was reclassified to stockholders' equity.
The effective interest rate of the December 2019 Bonds was 6.2%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recognized $50,000 of interest expense related to the December 2019 Bonds, of which $9,000 related to the contractual interest coupon.
