STOCK OPTION PLAN, STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | NOTE 7- STOCK OPTION PLAN, STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION In May 2007, the Board of Directors approved the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”). The 2007 Plan provides for the award of options to purchase up to 2,000,000 In November 2010, the shareholders approved the 2010 Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). The 2010 Plan provides for the award of options to purchase up to 4,000,000 Under the 2007 and 2010 Plans, the stock option price per share for options granted is determined by the Board of Directors and is based on the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, and each option is exercisable within the period and in the increments as determined by the Board, except that no option can be exercised later than ten years from the grant date. The stock options generally vest in one to five years. The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. We also estimate the fair value of the award that is ultimately expected to vest to be recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards to employees and directors on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2015 included compensation expense for the share-based payment awards based on the grant date fair value. For stock-based awards issued to employees and directors, stock-based compensation is attributed to expense using the straight-line single option method. As stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the periods reported in this Form 10-Q is based on awards expected to vest, forfeitures are also estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. For the period being reported in this Form 10-Q, expected forfeitures are immaterial. The Company will re-assess the impact of forfeitures if actual forfeitures increase in future quarters. Three months ended December 31, 2014 $ 71,000 Three months ended December 31, 2015 $ 94,000 Six months ended December 31, 2014 $ 139,000 Six months ended December 31, 2015 $ 160,000 The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards to employees and directors on the date of grant uses the Black-Scholes model, which is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the expected stock price volatility over the expected term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock options exercise behaviors. The Company estimates expected volatility using historical data. The expected term is estimated using the “safe harbor” provisions provided by the SEC. 2007 Plan 2010 Plan Options Average Exercise Options Average Exercise Granted Price per Share Granted Price per Share Three months ended December 31, 2014 30,000 $ 0.23 - - Three months ended December 31, 2015 30,000 $ 1.04 - - Six months ended December 31, 2014 35,000 $ 0.28 - - Six months ended December 31, 2015 95,000 $ 1.01 - - 2007 Plan 2010 Plan Total Options originally available 2,000,000 4,000,000 6,000,000 Stock options outstanding 1,677,535 1,261,275 2,938,810 Options available for grant 267,700 2,705,150 2,972,850 Number Weighted Average Weighted Average Balance at June 30, 2015 2,935,060 $ 0.70 $ 0.49 Granted 65,000 $ 1.00 $ 0.89 Exercised - $ - $ - Cancelled (15,150) $ 1.27 $ 0.66 Balance at September 30, 2015 2,984,910 $ 0.70 $ 0.50 Granted 30,000 $ 1.04 $ 0.93 Exercised (52,600) $ 0.65 $ 0.43 Cancelled (23,500) $ 1.12 $ 0.64 Balance at December 31, 2015 2,938,810 $ 0.71 $ 0.50 |
