NOTE 6: STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Company adopted ASC 718, “Share Based Payments.” which requires companies to expense the value of employee stock options and similar awards.

 

During the nine months ended November 30, 2021, the Company granted options to acquire 41,630 shares to employees exercisable at prices ranging from $3.19 to $6.05 and options to acquire 30,250 shares to non-employee members of the board of directors with an exercise price of $3.19. The options granted to employees and directors vest over three years and expire in ten years. The options granted during the first nine months of fiscal 2022 had a combined weighted average grant date fair value of $3.65 per share.

 

The weighted-average fair value of options are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options-pricing model. The weighted-average Black-Scholes assumptions are as follows:
