   For the Six Months Ended June 30, 
   2026   2025 
Risk-free interest rate   3.64% - 4.19%   3.87% - 4.06%
Expected term (in years)   2 years - 5 years    3 years - 5 years 
Expected volatility   186.91% - 269.54%   263.38% - 279.43%
Expected dividend yield   0.00%   0.00%

 

The Company capitalized $1,743,829 in intangible assets pertaining to these warrants on June 4, 2026, based on the vesting conditions noted above. The Company recognized $981,455 in stock-based compensation expense pertaining to warrants granted to consultants and service providers during the six months ended June 30, 2026, based on the vesting conditions noted above. In addition, the aggregate grant-date fair value of $801,798 of the warrants granted to the Company’s outside securities counsel on May 29, 2026 and to its financial advisor on April 27, 2026 was determined to be a direct and incremental cost of the Company’s 2026 equity offerings and was charged to additional paid-in capital in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A. The warrants granted to stockholders in consideration for lock-up agreements were granted to the holders in their capacity as stockholders and, accordingly, were accounted for as an equity transaction rather than as compensation expense; the aggregate grant-date fair value of $3,548,508 was recorded as a deemed dividend, which increases the net loss attributable to common stockholders for purposes of computing loss per share (see Note 2).

 

 

2026 Equity Incentive Plan

 

On March 23, 2026, the Board of Directors adopted the Agassi Sports Entertainment Corp. 2026 Equity Incentive Plan, which became effective on the same date (the “2026 Plan”).

 

The 2026 Plan provides an opportunity for any employee, officer, director or consultant of the Company, subject to limitations provided by federal or state securities laws, to receive (i) nonqualified stock options; (ii) stock appreciation rights; (iii) restricted stock awards; (iv) restricted stock units; (v) shares in performance of services; (vi) other awards of equity or equity based compensation; or (vii) any combination of the foregoing. In making such determinations, the Board or Compensation Committee may take into account the nature of the services rendered by such person, his or her present and potential contribution to the Company’s success, and such other factors as the Board or Compensation Committee, in its discretion shall deem relevant.

 

Subject to adjustment in connection with the payment of a stock dividend, a stock split or subdivision or combination of the shares of common stock, or a reorganization or reclassification of the Company’s common stock, the aggregate number of shares of common stock which may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2026 Plan is 1,500,000.

 

RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

 

In May 2026, the Company granted 300,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the 2026 Plan to its Chief Executive Officer pursuant to the terms of his employment agreement. The RSUs vest in three equal annual installments on December 31, 2026, 2027 and 2028. The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of approximately $80,799 in the statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted common stock amounted to approximately $1,344,201 as of June 30, 2026, which is expected to be recognized over 2.51 years. As of June 30, 2026, 300,000 RSUs remained unvested.
