Note 6 – Derivative Liabilities

 

In connection with the issuance of convertible promissory notes (Notes #7 and #8), in March 2026, the Company issued 375,000 common stock purchase warrants. These warrants contain certain cash settlement features triggered upon events of default or change of control and therefore do not qualify for equity classification. Accordingly, the warrants are accounted for as derivative liabilities.

 

The derivative liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy because their valuation relies on significant unobservable inputs. The Company determines the fair value of these warrant liabilities using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

 

Valuation Assumptions

 

The Company used the following key assumptions to estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities:

 

   Commitment Date   Remeasurement 
Stock Price  $0.74 - $0.89   $0.75 
Exercise Price  $1.25   $1.25 
Expected term (years)   5.00    4.95 - 4.99 
Expected volatility   94% - 98%   94%
Expected dividends   0.00%   0.00%
Risk free interest rate   3.88% - 4.06%   3.92%
