SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

NOTE 10 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Common Stock

 

At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders held in July 2020, the Company approved the Restated 2014 Omnibus Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2014 LTIP”) in which the Company’s directors, officers, employees and consultants are eligible to participate. The 2014 LTIP terminated as to future awards on September 3, 2024. Previously granted awards under the 2014 LTIP will remain outstanding until they expire by their terms or under the terms of the 2014 LTIP.

 

On June 12, 2024, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2024 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2024 LTIP”), which went into effect upon shareholder approval. The maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be delivered pursuant to awards granted under the 2024 LTIP is 1,000,000, subject to increase by any awards under the 2014 LTIP (i) that were outstanding on or after June 12, 2024, and that, on or after such date, are forfeited, expire or are canceled, and (ii) any shares subject to awards relating to common stock under the 2014 LTIP that are settled in cash on or after June 12, 2024 (the “Prior LTIP Awards”). The 2024 LTIP also provides that, to the extent an award under the 2024 LTIP or a Prior LTIP Award is forfeited, expires or is canceled, in whole or in part, the shares subject to such forfeited, expired or canceled award may again be awarded under the 2024 LTIP. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, a total of 272,668 shares had been issued under the 2024 LTIP, net of 257 shares forfeited under the 2014 LTIP and 6,997 shares forfeited under the 2024 LTIP. As of June 30, 2026, there were 531,635 shares available for issuance under the 2024 LTIP.

 

 

Restricted Stock Awards

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued restricted stock awards under the 2024 LTIP which are subject to certain vesting provisions and other terms and conditions set forth in each recipient’s respective restricted stock agreement. The Company issued 272,668 shares under the 2024 LTIP, net of forfeitures, of restricted common stock to employees, directors and certain advisors of the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2026. The fair value of these awards was $5,165,475 based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the respective grant dates, which will be recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards.

 

Share-based compensation expense was $1,496,310 and $1,409,045 during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $2,524,645 and $2,584,541 during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and is recorded in operating expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Share-based compensation expense related to THP was $26,394 and $155,802 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and is recorded in discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

At June 30, 2026, there was $8,333,709 of total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to unvested share-based equity awards. Unrecognized share-based compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years.
