NOTE 8—EQUITY

 

(a) General

 

At June 30, 2023 the Company had issued and outstanding 39,757,589 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share. Holders of outstanding common stock are entitled to receive dividends when and if declared by the Board and to share ratably in the assets of the Company legally available for distribution in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.

 

The Company is not authorized to issue preferred stock. Accordingly, no preferred stock is issued or outstanding.

 

(b) Summary Employee Option Information

 

The Company’s stock option plans provide for the grant to officers, directors and employees of options to purchase shares of common stock. The purchase price may be paid in cash or, if the option is “in-the-money” at the end of the option term, it is automatically exercised “net”. In a net exercise of an option, the Company does not require a payment of the exercise price of the option from the optionee but reduces the number of shares of common stock issued upon the exercise of the option by the smallest number of whole shares that has an aggregate fair market value equal to or in excess of the aggregate exercise price for the option shares covered by the option exercised. Each option is exercisable for one share of the Company’s common stock. Most options expire within five to ten years from the date of the grant, and generally vest over a three-year period from the date of the grant.

 

At June 30, 2023, 1,240,351 options were available for grant under the Amended and Restated 2006 Stock Incentive Plan and no options were available for grant under the 2006 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 215,000 options were issued of which 110,000 of these options were issued in the three months ended June 30, 2023. The options were issued as follows: an aggregate of 55,000 to directors (excluding the CEO), 35,000 to the CEO, 100,000 to the CFO and an aggregate of 25,000 to employees. In the six and three months ended June 30, 2023, there were no grants to non-employees (other than the directors, CEO and CFO).

 

 

No options were exercised in the six and three months ended June 30, 2023. The intrinsic value of options outstanding and of options exercisable at June 30, 2023 was $8,000. The Company utilized the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate fair value, utilizing the following assumptions for the respective years (all in weighted averages):

Exercisable at June 30, 2023   899,258   $0.41    4.0 years   $8,000 

 

The fair value of the options granted of $46,000 was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

 

Risk-free interest rate     3.9 %
Expected term of options     4.1 years  
Expected annual volatility     94.5 %
Expected dividend yield     — %

 

(c) Stock-based Compensation Expense

 

Stock-based compensation expense included in SG&A expenses in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations was $30,000 and $53,000 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $13,000 and $22,000 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

The total compensation cost related to non-vested awards not yet recognized was $43,000 and $59,000 as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
