11. Net Loss per Share of Common Stock

 

The Company applies the two-class method to compute basic net income (loss) per share by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock is computed by giving effect to all potential common stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the more dilutive of the 1) treasury stock method, if-converted method, or contingently issuable share method, as applicable, or 2) the two-class method. For purposes of this calculation, options to purchase common stock, RSUs, and warrants to purchase common stock were considered to be common stock equivalents.

 

The July 2023 Series A and Series B common stock warrants, the placement agent July 2023 Series A and Series B common stock warrants, the December 2022 Common Stock Warrants, and the November 2021 Financing Warrants are all participating securities which, by definition, entitle the holders thereof to participate in dividends and other distributions of assets by the Company to its holders of common shares as though the holder then held common shares; however, there is no contractual obligation on the part of the warrantholders to participate in the Company’s losses.

 

Given that the Company’s participating securities do not have a contractual obligation to share in the Company’s losses, net loss for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, was attributed entirely to common stockholders. In periods with a reported net loss, common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share of common stock if their effect is antidilutive. Potential common shares that are issuable for little or no cash consideration, such as the Company’s September 2025, April 2025, January 2024, and July 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants issued with de minimis exercise prices of $0.001 per share, are considered outstanding common shares which are included in the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share in all circumstances.

 

The following outstanding shares of common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock for the periods presented because including them would have been antidilutive:

 

   

Year Ended December 31,

 
   

2025

   

2024

 

RSUs and stock options to purchase common stock

    2,883,672       1,999,823  

Common stock warrants

    20,265,576       20,265,576  

 

In addition, the shares contingently issuable in connection with the Merger Agreement, as described in Note 4, “Asset Acquisition”, have also been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share of common stock for the periods presented because the contingencies for issuance of these shares have not been met.
