Warrants

 

Warrants Issued in Public Equity Offering – February 2024

 

On February 14, 2024, the Company closed a public equity offering pursuant to a securities purchase agreement with certain purchasers and a placement agency agreement with Spartan, pursuant to which the Company issued pre-funded warrants to purchase of 16,280 common shares at an exercise price of $1.95 per share.

 

The Company evaluated the pre-funded warrants for classification as equity or liability instruments in accordance with ASC 480 and ASC 815-40. The Company determined the pre-funded warrants failed the indexation guidance under ASC 815-40 because the warrants provide for a Black-Scholes value calculation upon certain fundamental transactions that include a volatility floor of 100% or greater. This provision introduces leverage to the holders that could result in a settlement value exceeding that of a fixed-for-fixed option on the Company’s own equity, and therefore the pre-funded warrants do not qualify for equity classification. Accordingly, the pre-funded warrants were recorded at fair value upon issuance as a liability and remeasured at each reporting period with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations (see Note 13—Fair Value Measurements).

 

The initial fair value of the warrant liability was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 149.05%; (iii) risk-free interest rate of 4.86%; (iv) expected life of one year; (v) estimated fair value of the common shares of $380.25 per share; and (vi) exercise price of $1.95 per share.

 

Warrants Issued in Private Placement with 20% OID Promissory Note

 

On May 8, 2024, the Company issued five-year warrants to purchase 477 common shares at an adjusted exercise price of $524.55 per share (subject to standard adjustments as defined in the warrant agreement). Additionally, the Company issued a five-year warrant to the placement agent, Spartan, to purchase 39 common shares at an adjusted exercise price of $577.05 per share (subject to standard adjustments as defined in the warrant agreement). The warrants are exercisable beginning six months after the date of issuance.

The Company evaluated the warrants for classification as equity or liability instruments in accordance with ASC 480 and ASC 815-40. The Company determined that the warrants failed the indexation guidance under ASC 815-40 because the warrants provide for a Black-Scholes value calculation upon certain fundamental transactions that include a volatility floor of 100% or greater. This provision introduces leverage to the holders that could result in a settlement value exceeding that of a fixed-for-fixed option on the Company’s own equity, and therefore the warrants do not qualify for equity classification. Accordingly, the warrants were recorded at fair value upon issuance as a liability and remeasured at each reporting period with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations (see Note 13—Fair Value Measurements). The warrants issued to the placement agent were classified as equity.

 

The initial fair value of the warrant liability was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 160.8%; (iii) risk-free interest rate of 4.50%; (iv) expected life of 5.5 years; (v) estimated fair value of the common shares of $468 per share; and (vi) exercise price of $524.55 per share.

 

The remaining proceeds were allocated to the placement agent warrants and promissory note based on their relative fair values. The fair value of the placement agent warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 160.8%; (iii) risk-free interest rate of 4.50%; (iv) expected life of 5.5 years; (v) estimated fair value of the common shares of $468 per share; and (vi) exercise price of $577.05 per share. The fair value of the placement agent warrants was $16,800, of which $7,573 was allocated based on relative fair value and recorded as additional paid-in capital.

 

Series A and Series B Warrants Issued in Public Equity Offering – October 2024

 

On October 30, 2024, the Company closed a public equity offering pursuant to a securities purchase agreement with certain purchasers and a placement agency agreement with Spartan, pursuant to which the Company issued series A warrants to purchase 587,306 common shares and series B warrants to purchase 587,306 common shares.

 

The series A warrants are exercisable at any time at an exercise price of $28.50 per share and expire five years from the date of issuance. The series B warrants are exercisable at any time at an exercise price of $37.80 per share and expire five years from the date of issuance. The series A warrants include an alternate cashless exercise option pursuant to which holders may receive a number of common shares equal to the product of (i) the aggregate number of common shares that would be issuable upon a cash exercise of the series A warrants and (ii) 2.0. In addition, the series A and B warrants contain a reset of the exercise price to a price equal to the lesser of (i) the then exercise price and (ii) lowest volume weighted-average price for the five trading days immediately preceding and immediately following the date the Company effects a reverse share split in the future with a proportionate adjustment to the number of shares underlying the series A warrants and the series B warrants, subject to a floor price of $1.50. In addition, the series B warrants contain a down round feature providing for an adjustment to the exercise price and number of underlying shares upon the Company’s issuance of common shares or common share equivalents at a price below the then-current exercise price, subject to a floor price of $1.50.

 

The Company evaluated the warrants for classification as equity or liability instruments in accordance with ASC 480 and ASC 815-40. The Company determined that the warrants failed the indexation guidance under ASC 815-40 due to (i) the alternate cashless exercise option in the series A warrants and (ii) the reset provision following a reverse share split applicable to both the series A and series B warrants, subject to a floor price of $1.50. These provisions introduce leverage to the holders that could result in a settlement value exceeding that of a fixed-for-fixed option on the Company’s own equity, and therefore the warrants do not qualify for equity classification. Accordingly, the warrants were recorded at fair value upon issuance as a liability and remeasured at each reporting period with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations (see Note 13—Fair Value Measurements).

The initial fair value of the warrant liabilities was determined using a Geometric Brownian Motion Stock Monte Carlo Simulation model with the following assumptions: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 201.96%; (iii) risk-free interest rate of 4.05%; (iv) maximum term of five years; (v) estimated fair value of the series A warrants of $83.73 per share and an estimated fair value of the series B warrants of $29.75 per share; and (vi) various probability assumptions.

 

On March 11, 2025, the exercise price of the series A warrants was reduced to $0.81 per share with a proportionate increase in the number of series A warrants outstanding to 632,990, each exercisable for two common shares, representing an aggregate of 1,265,980 common shares. On March 25, 2025, the Company entered into cancellation and exchange agreements with the remaining holders of the series A warrants issued on October 30, 2024, pursuant to which such holders agreed to exchange such warrants for an aggregate of 1,027 series F convertible preferred shares. See Note 18—Convertible Preferred Shares for additional information.

 

On March 11, 2025, the exercise price of the series B warrants was adjusted to $0.54 per share and the number of series B warrants was proportionally increased to 41,111,053.

 

Series A and Series B Warrants Issued in Private Equity Offering – December 2024

 

On December 16, 2024, the Company closed a private equity offering pursuant to a securities purchase agreement with certain purchasers and a placement agency agreement with Spartan, pursuant to which the Company issued (i) pre-funded warrants to purchase 38,873,908 common shares, (ii) series A warrants to purchase 42,311,118 common shares, and (iii) series B warrants to purchase 42,311,118 common shares.

 

The pre-funded warrants are exercisable at any time following shareholder approval until exercised in full at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, which has been pre-paid in full by the purchasers. The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise are subject to adjustment for share dividends, share splits, share combinations, reclassifications, and similar events. The pre-funded warrants issued to the placement agent were classified as equity.

 

The series A warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $0.81 per share and the series B warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $0.54 per share, in each case subject to adjustment and following shareholder approval. The series A and series B warrants expire five years from the later of (i) the date shareholder approval is obtained and (ii) the earlier of the date the initial registration statement registering the underlying shares for resale is declared effective or the date such shares may be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144. The series A and series B warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis if no effective registration statement is available with respect to the underlying shares.

 

The series A warrants include an alternate cashless exercise option pursuant to which holders may receive a number of common shares equal to the product of (i) the number of shares issuable upon a cash exercise of the series A warrants and (ii) 1.25. The series A and series B warrants are also subject to the following exercise price reset provisions:

 

Share Combination Event: Subject to shareholder approval, if at any time and from time to time on or after the issue date there occurs any share split, share dividend, share combination or reverse share split, recapitalization, or other similar transaction involving the common shares (each, a “share combination event,” and such date thereof, and the lowest VWAP during the period commencing five (5) consecutive trading days immediately preceding and the five (5) consecutive trading days commencing on the share combination event date (the “event market price”) (provided if the share combination event is effective after the close of trading, then commencing on the next trading day, which period shall be the “share combination adjustment period”) is less than the exercise price then in effect, then at the close of trading on the last day of the share combination adjustment period, the exercise price then in effect on such fifth (5th) trading day shall be reduced (but in no event increased) to the event market price, subject to the floor price (as defined below), and the number of common shares issuable upon exercise shall be increased such that the aggregate exercise price shall remain unchanged.
Registration Reset: On the reset date (as defined below), the exercise price shall be adjusted to equal the lower of (i) the exercise price then in effect and (ii) a price equal to the greater of (a) the lowest single day VWAP during the period commencing on the twentieth (20th) trading day immediately preceding the reset date and ending on the reset date and (b) the floor price. Upon such reset of the exercise price, the number of common shares issuable upon exercise shall be increased such that the aggregate exercise price shall remain unchanged. As used herein, “reset date” means the date following shareholder approval that is the earliest of the following dates, (i) the date on which for twenty (20) consecutive trading days all registrable securities have become and remained registered pursuant to an effective registration statement that is available for the resale of all registrable securities, provided, however, that if less than all registrable securities have become registered for resale on the date that a registration statement is declared effective, the holder with respect to itself only, shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to deem such condition satisfied, including with regard only to the registrable securities that have been so registered, (ii) the date on which the holder, for twenty (20) consecutive trading days, can sell all registrable securities pursuant to Rule 144 or (iii) twelve (12) months and twenty (20) trading days immediately following the issuance date of the series A and series B warrants.

 

Subsequent Equity Sales: Subject to shareholder approval, if at any time the Company issues, sells, enters into an agreement to sell, or grants any option to purchase, or sells, enters into an agreement to sell, or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any offer, sale, grant, or any option to purchase or other disposition), or is deemed to have issued or sold, any common shares or any securities of the Company or its subsidiaries which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time common shares, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred shares, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, common shares, for a consideration per share (the “new issuance price”) less than a price equal to the exercise price in effect immediately prior to such issuance or sale or deemed issuance or sale, then simultaneously with the consummation (or, if earlier, the announcement) of such issuance, the exercise price then in effect shall be reduced to an amount equal to the lower of (i) the new issuance price and (ii) the lowest VWAP during the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately following the issuance, subject to the floor price, and the number of common shares issuable upon exercise shall be increased such that the aggregate exercise price shall remain unchanged.

 

In no event will the exercise prices of the series A and series B warrants be reduced below the floor price of $0.054 (subject to shareholder approval). Upon each share combination event the floor price will be reduced by 50% and will continue to be so adjusted for each subsequent share combination event.

 

The Company evaluated the series A and series B warrants for classification as equity or liability instruments in accordance with ASC 480 and ASC 815-40. The Company determined that the warrants failed the indexation guidance under ASC 815-40 due to (i) the alternate cashless exercise option in the series A warrants, (ii) the share combination reset provision applicable to both the series A and series B warrants, subject to a floor price that resets after each share combination event, and (iii) the registration reset provision applicable to both the Series A and Series B warrants, subject to a floor price of $0.054. These provisions introduce leverage to the holders that could result in a settlement value exceeding that of a fixed-for-fixed option on the Company’s own equity, and therefore the warrants do not qualify for equity classification. Accordingly, the warrants were recorded at fair value upon issuance as a liability and remeasured at each reporting period with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations (see Note 13—Fair Value Measurements).

 

The initial fair value of the warrant liabilities was determined using a Geometric Brownian Motion Stock Monte Carlo Simulation model with the following assumptions: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 196.59%; (iii) risk-free interest rate of 4.16%; (iv) maximum term of five years; (v) estimated fair value of the series A warrants of $1.22 per share and an estimated fair value of the series B warrants of $0.65 per share; and (vi) various probability assumptions.

 

On October 15, 2025, the exercise prices of the series A and series B warrants were adjusted to $0.054 per share and the number of series A warrants and series B warrants was proportionally increased to 634,666,770 and 423,111,180, respectively.

The Company recognized a deemed dividend of $1,000 in connection with this adjustment, calculated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

 

On November 11, 2024, as a result of the 1-for-15 reverse share split, the exercise price of the series A and series B warrants issued in the October 2024 offering was adjusted to $1.50 and the number of underlying shares was increased by 22,184,090 pursuant to antidilution provisions contained in such warrants.

 

On December 16, 2024, as a result of the private equity offering, the exercise price of certain outstanding warrants was adjusted to $0.27 pursuant to antidilution provisions contained in such warrants.

On October 15, 2025, as a result of the registration reset, the exercise prices of the series A and series B warrants were adjusted to $0.054 per share and the number of series A warrants and series B warrants was proportionally increased to 634,666,770 and 423,111,180, respectively.
