Share-Based Compensation

Note 11. Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company’s 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2025 Equity Plan”) is described in Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur.

 

Time-based restricted stock units

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company granted 3,353,832 time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the 2025 Equity Plan to certain employees and service providers with aggregate grant-date fair value of $7.7 million. The awards generally vest over a service period ranging from 1 to 4 years.

 

For RSUs subject solely to time-based vesting conditions, grant-date fair value is determined based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, grant-date stock prices used to value such awards had a weighted average grant date fair value of $2.27 per share.

 

The following schedule summarizes activity related to time-based RSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2026:

 

  

Number of time-based

Restricted Stock Units

  

Weighted Average

Grant Date Fair Value

 
Unvested as of December 31, 2025   18,414   $2.13 
Granted   3,353,832    2.27 
Forfeited   -    - 
Vested   (1,454,365)   2.51 
Unvested as of June 30, 2026   1,917,980   $2.09 

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized approximately $2.0 million and $4.2 million, respectively, in share-based compensation expense from time-based RSUs. As of June 30, 2026, unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested time-based RSUs was $3.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 1.2 years.

 

 

Market-based restricted stock units

 

In connection with the CFO Silvia Acquisition, the Company granted Shain Noor the right to receive up to 4,356,450 shares of the Company’s common stock. The award is subject to both continued service and market condition requiring the Company’s common stock to achieve a trading price of $9.00 per share. Because the award is contingent upon future employment and achievement of the market condition, it is accounted for as a share-based payment award under ASC 718 and is excluded from the purchase consideration transferred in the transaction.

 

The award had a grant-date fair value of $5.1 million, which was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The valuation incorporated assumptions regarding the Company’s stock price, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected term, and expected dividend yield. Expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, and the risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the grant date for a term corresponding to the expected term of the award.

 

The following table summarizes the key assumptions used in the Monte Carlo valuation of market-based awards granted during the six months ended June 30, 2026:

 

Assumption  Input 
Stock price  $1.90 
Expected volatility   70.0%
Risk-free interest rate   3.94%
Expected term   5.00 
Expected dividend yield   0.00%

Unvested as of June 30, 2026   12,356,450   $1.75 

 

As of June 30, 2026, the market condition associated with the award had not been satisfied and, accordingly, no shares subject to the award had vested.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized approximately $1.7 million and $3.1 million, respectively, in share-based compensation expense from market-based RSUs. As of June 30, 2026, unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested market-based RSUs was $18.1 million. The remaining compensation cost is expected to be recognized over the weighted average remaining period of 3.0 years.
