STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

NOTE 6 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

The Company was formed with one class of common stock, $0.0001 par value, and is authorized to issue 100,000,000 common shares and one class of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value, and is authorized to issue 10,000,000 preferred shares. Voting rights are not cumulative and, therefore, the holders of more than 50% of the common stock could, if they chose to do so, elect all of the directors of the Company.

Officer – Former VP of Operations:

 

On February 24, 2023, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with the Company’s former Vice President of Operations (the “VP Agreement”). The Company agreed to issue 2,000,000 shares of its common stock for the services. The shares vested rateably over a two-year period, beginning March 1, 2023, and vested shares were distributed quarterly. The fair value of the shares was $1,400,000 or $0.70 per share based on the trading price of the Company’s common stock on the date the service period began. As at September 30, 2025, the Company had distributed all the shares under the VP Agreement, and no future compensation was recognized for this award.

 

Consultants:

 

On February 24, 2023, the Company entered into two separate consulting agreements with consultants (the “Consulting Agreements”) in exchange for a total of 2,000,000 shares of its common stock. All shares vested rateably over a three-year period, beginning March 1, 2023, and vested shares were distributed quarterly. The fair value of the shares was $1,400,000 or $0.70 per share based on the trading price of the Company’s common stock on the date the service period began. As at September 30, 2026, the Company had distributed all the shares under the Consulting Agreements, and no future compensation will be recognized for this award.

 

Equity Incentive Plan:

 

On May 5, 2025, the Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which was subsequently approved by stockholders on June 27, 2025, at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders. The Plan provides for the issuance of up to 2,800,000 common shares, with an annual increase of up to 4% of the Company’s outstanding common shares at the discretion of the Board. The Plan allows for the grant of incentive and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, stock awards, and performance shares.

 

 

On September 10, 2025, the Company granted stock options to certain directors and an officer under the Plan. The options entitle the holders to purchase up to 1,800,000 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.83 per share. 50% of the options vested immediately on the date of grant, and 50% vested on September 10, 2026, as the grantees continued providing service to the Company. The options expire on September 10, 2028.

 

The fair value of the stock options was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: expected life of three years, risk-free interest rate of 3.47%, expected dividend yield of $Nil, and expected share price volatility of 138%. The total grant-date fair value of the options amounted to $1,039,173, which was recognized as stock-based compensation expense over the vesting period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized $102,494 and $360,152, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense relating to these options, included in director and officer compensation on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (2025 - $548,057 and $548,057, respectively).

 

The intrinsic value of total outstanding options was $Nil at September 30, 2026.
