Common Stock and Warrants [Abstract] |
COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS | 14. COMMON STOCK AND WARRANTS. Warrants issued to Senior Noteholders – On December 22, 2019, in connection with an extension of the Company’s senior secured notes, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The warrants had an exercise price of $1.00 per share and were exercisable commencing June 22, 2020 and were to expire on December 22, 2020. The Company had determined that the warrants issued in this transaction did not meet the conditions for classification in stockholders’ equity and as such, the Company recorded them as a liability at fair value. These warrants were initially valued at $977,000 as of December 31, 2019. Until they were exercised, the Company revalued them at each reporting period. In August 2020, these warrants were fully exercised for $1.00 per share. See Note 17 for the Company’s fair value assumptions. Warrants issued in Equity Offering – On October 28, 2020, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 5,075,000 shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $8.42 per share and 5-year pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,825,493 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $8.42 per pre-funded warrant. The Company had determined that the warrants issued in this transaction did not meet the conditions for classification in stockholders’ equity and as such, the Company recorded them as a liability at fair value. In November 2020, these warrants were fully exercised. For the period they were outstanding in 2020, the Company revalued them at each reporting period. See Note 17 for the Company’s fair value assumptions. In addition, in a concurrent private placement, the Company also issued to the investor, for a nominal price, warrants to purchase an additional 8,900,493 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $9.757 per share. The warrants became exercisable after the six-month anniversary of the offering and expired unexercised on April 28, 2022. The Company had determined that when initially issued, these warrants did not meet the conditions for classification in stockholders’ equity, however, in November 2020, the Company amended these warrants which then met the conditions of classification in stockholders’ equity and as such, the Company recorded them initially as a liability at fair value and upon their amendment, reclassified their then fair value to equity. See Note 17 for the Company’s fair value assumptions. The aggregate gross proceeds from the offerings of common stock, pre-funded warrants and warrants were approximately $75.0 million. The net offering proceeds were approximately $70.5 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses.
