Options Valuation
In order to obtain a fair valuation of these options, the following assumptions have been made:
The Black Scholes option valuation methodology has been used with the expectation that the majority of these options would be exercised towards the end of the option term. Inputs into the Black Scholes model includes the share price at grant date, exercise price, volatility, and the risk free rate of a five year Australian Government Bond on grant date.
Risk-free
rate and grant date
For all tranches, the risk-free rate of a five-year Australian Government bond on grant date was used. Please refer to the table below for details.
The abovementioned options have various vesting periods and exercising conditions. These options are unlisted as at 30 June 2023.
No dividends are expected to be declared or paid by the consolidated entity during the terms of the options.
The underlying expected volatility was determined by reference to historical data of the Company’s shares over a period of time. No special features inherent to the options granted were incorporated into measurement of fair value.
Based on the above assumptions, the table below sets out the valuation for each tranche of options:
