Stock-Based Compensation | Note 8: Stock-Based Compensation The Company grants stock-based instruments under the 2015 Stock Incentive Plan (Plan) for which 1,400,000 shares of the Companys Common Stock has been reserved. The Plan allows for the issuance of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options with a maximum contractual term of 10 years. Shares and options that are cancelled are available for reissuance under the Plan. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded compensation costs for stock options of $17,278 and $24,644, respectively. Stock options are generally issued with an exercise price at or above the estimated per-share value of the Companys Common Stock. The Company granted no options during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. Management has valued the options at their date of grant utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model. As of the issuance of the outstanding options, there was not a public market for the Companys shares. Accordingly, the Company utilized the value obtained in equity transactions with unrelated parties to estimate the fair value of the Companys Common Stock on the date of grant. Volatility of the underlying common shares was determined based on the historical volatility for similar companies that are actively traded in the public markets for a term consistent with the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate used in the calculations is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent term approximating the expected life of the options on the date of the grant. Due to the lack of sufficient historical activity, the expected life of the options was estimated using the formula set forth in Securities and Exchange Commission SAB 107. The following table summarizes the status of the Companys aggregate stock options granted: Number of Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Term(Years) Total Intrinsic Value Balance, January 1, 2018 566,667 $ 2.33 6.95 Granted Exercised Cancelled Balance, December 31, 2018 566,667 $ 2.33 5.95 Exercisable at December 31, 2018 450,000 $ 2.10 5.62 Balance, January 1, 2019 566,667 $ 2.33 5.95 Granted Exercised Cancelled Balance, March 31, 2019 566,667 $ 2.33 5.70 $ Exercisable at March 31, 2019 533,334 $ 2.26 5.61 $ During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, options for 83,334 and 83,333 shares vested, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, there was $4,562 unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation arrangements that will be recognized over the next 2 months. |
