WARRANTS WARRANTS
Penny Warrants
On February 14, 2023, the lenders under the Amended Credit Agreement (see Note 10 for additional information) received warrants (the “Penny Warrants”) to purchase 402,981 shares of common stock (the “Penny Warrant Shares”). The number of Penny Warrant Shares was subject to reduction based on the amount of Aggregate Paydowns (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). Based on Aggregate Paydowns made during 2023, the number of Penny Warrant Shares was reduced to 201,588. The exercise price per share of common stock under each Penny Warrant was equal to $0.01. The remaining 189,483 Penny Warrant Shares were exercised in the first quarter of 2025, leaving no remaining Penny Warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2026.
Stakeholder Warrants
On April 3, 2025, the Company issued 70.5 million warrants to purchase approximately 14.3 million shares of common stock for $9.5998 per share (the “Stakeholder Warrants”). The distribution of Stakeholder Warrants was contingent upon, among other things, approval of the issuance by the Company’s shareholders and the consummation of the Debt Exchange Transaction (such conditions, collectively, the “Distribution Conditions”). The Distribution Conditions were satisfied during the quarter ended March 31, 2025.
Fifty percent of the Stakeholder Warrants will expire on April 2, 2029 and require settlement through the cash payment to the Company of the exercise price of such Stakeholder Warrant (“Cash Exercise Stakeholder Warrants”). Fifty percent of the Stakeholder Warrants will expire on April 30, 2032 and require settlement through the forfeiture of shares of common stock to the Company equal to the exercise price of such Stakeholder Warrants (“Net Settle Stakeholder Warrants”). Each Stakeholder Warrant is exercisable for 0.20313 shares of our common stock, subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Stakeholder Warrants. The Stakeholder Warrants became exercisable pursuant to their term on July 28, 2025.
The Stakeholder Warrants are listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market and began trading on May 7, 2025. The Cash Exercise Stakeholder Warrants trade under the symbol “ASPSZ” and the Net Settle Stakeholder Warrants trade under the symbol “ASPSW”.
For purposes of recording the issuance of the Stakeholder Warrants during the three months ended March 31, 2025, the fair values of the Cash Exercise Stakeholder Warrants and the Net Settle Stakeholder Warrants were determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following table summarizes the fair value of the Stakeholder Warrants and the assumptions used to determine the fair value:
 Cash Exercise Stakeholder WarrantsNet Settle Stakeholder Warrants
Risk-free interest rate (%)4.29 %4.42 %
Expected stock price volatility (%)57.50 %57.50 %
Expected dividend yield0.00 %0.00 %
Expected option life (in years)4.127.19
Fair value per Stakeholder Warrant$0.47$0.68
The Stakeholder Warrants are indexed to the common stock and are classified as equity under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, resulting in a $40.5 million increase in Additional paid-in capital. The distribution of the Stakeholder Warrants are non-reciprocal pro rata distributions and are accounted for as a dividend. Because the Company has negative retained earnings, the Company recorded the dividend as a $40.5 million reduction to Additional paid-in capital. Since the transaction is accounted for as both an increase and a decrease in Additional paid-in capital, the net result is zero and is not reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Equity (Deficit).
