Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Equity-Based Compensation | Note 8: Equity-Based Compensation The 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, effective September 12, 2018, as amended and restated on August 19, 2019 (the “2018 Equity Incentive Plan”) authorizes the grant of (i) Incentive Stock Options, (ii) Nonstatutory Stock Options, (iii) Stock Appreciation Rights, (iv) Restricted Stock Awards, (v) Restricted Stock Unit Awards, (vi) Performance Stock Awards, (vii) Performance Cash Awards, and (viii) Other Stock Awards. After taking into account the 44:1 reverse stock split which was effected in June 2019, initially, a maximum of 230,390 shares of common stock were reserved for potential issuance pursuant to awards under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. When the plan was amended and restated, an additional 250,000 shares were reserved for potential issuance pursuant to awards under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. The number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for grant and issuance under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan is subject to an annual increase on July 1 of each calendar year, by an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the then outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock (the “2018 Plan Evergreen Provision”). On August 3, 2020, and July 1, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock available for grant and issuance under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan increased by 685,012 shares, 956,660 shares, 960,976 shares, 968,389 and 1,142,733 shares, respectively. As a result of the 2018 Plan Evergreen Provisions, a maximum of 5,167,160 shares of common stock is reserved for potential issuance pursuant to awards under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan as of September 30, 2024. Unless sooner terminated, the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan will continue in effect for a period of 10 years from its effective date. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, the Board of Directors issued 1,189,284 options to each employee, the officers and directors at the exercise price of $9.68 expiring in 10 years (27,028 options post reverse split). During the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019, 1,727,756 options were issued to each of these officers with an exercise price of $9.68 for a period of ten years with a vesting period of one year (39,266 options post reverse split). During the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020, 1,025,000 options were issued to each of these officers and directors with an exercise price range of $2.77 to $3.07 for a period of ten years with a vesting period of one year. During the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021, 613,512 options were issued to officers, directors and consultants with an exercise price range of $1.11 to $1.71 for a period of ten years with a vesting period of one year. During the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, 850,000 options were issued to officers, directors and consultants with an exercise price range of $0.31 to $0.71 for a period of ten years with a vesting period of one year. During the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, 400,000 options were issued to officers with an exercise price of $0.47 for a period of ten years with a vesting period of one year. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 there were no options issued. The fair value of each option and equity warrant award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing valuation model. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of the Company’s stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury issues with a term equal to the expected life of the option and equity warrant. The Company uses historical data to estimate expected dividend yield, expected life and forfeiture rates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, there were no options granted. Stock options activity during the three months ended September 30, 2024, was as follows: Stock option activity for employees: Schedule of Stock Option Activity
