Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. The Company’s Level 3 liabilities shown in the above table consist of accrued obligations to issue warrants and common stock.

 

In applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model utilized in the valuation of Level 3 liabilities, the Company used the following approximate assumptions:

  

   For the Three Months Ended   For the Six Months Ended 
   June 30,   June 30, 
   2022   2021   2022   2021 
                 
Risk-free interest rate   3.00%-3.01%   0.67%-0.87%   2.42%-3.01%   0.64%-0.92%
Expected term (years)   4.00-5.00    4.00-5.00    4.00-5.00    4.00-5.00 
Expected volatility   90%   90%   90%   90%
Expected dividends   0.00%   0.00%   0.00%   0.00%

 

The expected term used is the contractual life of the instrument being valued. Since the Company’s stock does not have significant trading volume, the Company is utilizing an expected volatility based on a review of the historical volatilities, over a period of time, equivalent to the expected life of the instrument being valued, of similarly positioned public companies within its industry. The risk-free interest rate was determined from the implied yields from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with a remaining term consistent with the expected term of the instrument being valued.

 

 

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had an obligation to issue 154,495 shares of common stock to service providers that had a fair value of $52,528, which was a component of accrued compensation on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Furthermore, as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has an obligation to issue warrants to purchase 42,930 shares of the Company’s common stock to service providers that had a fair value of $8,440 and $8,778, respectively.
