On December 9, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the establishment of Global Share Plan that provides for granting options to eligible directors, employees and etc. (collectively, the “Grantees”) to acquire ordinary shares of the Company at an exercise price as determined by the Board at the time of grant. According to the latest Amended and Restated Global Share Plan, the Board of Directors accumulatively authorized and reserved 308,562,865 ordinary shares for the issuance as of March 31, 2021.

Since adoption of the Global Share Plan, the Company granted RSUs and options to the Grantees. All RSUs and options granted have a contractual term of ten years, and the majority vest over a period of four years of continuous service on a straight-line basis. Under the option plan, options are exercisable subject to the grantee’s continuous service and the listing of the stock of the Company on a public stock exchange market or be held in escrow if the employee exercise the vested part when leaving the Company, which is normally in fifteen days after resignation.

The Company accounted for the share based compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the award based on the fair value on their respective grant dates. Upon the deemed exercise of the options, the Company recognized the receipts in escrow account of exercise amount paid by grantees in accruals and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Valuation of stock options

The Group uses the Binominal option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options. There was no

option granted for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2021. The assumptions used to value the Company’s option grants for the years ended March 31, 2020 were as follows:


Valuation Dates	2020
Expected term		10 years
Expected volatility		39.93	%
Exercise multiple		2.2
Expected dividend yield		—
Risk-free interest rate		1.67	%
Expected forfeiture rate (post vesting)		3% for staff 0% for management
Fair value of the underlying shares on the date of option grants (US$)		0.10
Fair value of share option (US$)		0.09

The Group estimated the risk free rate based on the yield to maturity of U.S. treasury bonds denominated in US$ at the option valuation date. The exercise multiple is estimated as the ratio of fair value of underlying shares over the exercise price as at the time the option is exercised, based on a consideration of empirical studies on the actual exercise behavior of employees. Expected term is the contract life of the option. The expected volatility at the date of grant date and each option valuation date was estimated based on the historical stock prices of comparable companies. The Group has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its capital stock, and the Group does not anticipate any dividend payments in the foreseeable future.
