Warrant Liability [Abstract] |
WARRANT LIABILITY | NOTE H– WARRANT LIABILITY On December 16, 2013, Crede CG III, Ltd (“Crede”) effected the cashless exercise of 178,253 Series A Warrants and 116,667 Series B Warrants. At December 16, 2013 (date of exercise), the Company determined the fair value of the Warrants to be $2,455,042 using the Binomial Lattice model with the following assumptions: fair value of the Company’s common stock $10.80 per share; dividend yield 0%; expected term: 4.55 years; risk free interest rate: 1.55%; expected volatility of: 118.89%; and an exercise price of $14.59. The Series A and Series B Warrants were classified as liabilities on the issuance date due to certain provisions contained in the warrant agreements, which may cause an adjustment to the conversion rate or the number of warrants outstanding. On October 28, 2014, the Company entered into a warrant repurchase option agreement with Crede, pursuant to which it had the option to purchase between 50% and 100% of Crede’s Series B Warrant (then exercisable for 387,621 shares of common stock) at a purchase price of $10.55 per share underlying such Series B Warrant (up to an aggregate purchase price of $4,091,000 for all of the Series B Warrant). On November 21, 2014, the Company exercised its option and repurchased 100% of Crede’s Series B Warrant for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $4,091,000. The change in fair value of the warrant liability on the day of repurchase amounted to a loss of $2,994,540 and was included in other income (expense) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015.
