NOTE 19 – STOCK COMPENSATION EXPENSES

 

Stock options to Employees: The Company grants shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $ 0.0001 to certain employees under the Company’s 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The price at which the Grantee is entitled to purchase the Shares upon the exercise of the Option (the “Option Price”) is $ 5.00 per Share. The Shares vest twenty percent (20%) as of the Grant Date, with the balance of the shares vesting in four equal annual installments on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the Grant Date provided that the Grantee remains in the Continuous Employment of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, as defined and provided for in the Plan. The Options, to the extent vested and not exercised, shall expire five (5) years from the Grant Date.

 

Restricted Stock Award to Employees: The Company grants restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, $ 0.0001 per value to certain employees under the Plan. The grant of restricted shares is made in consideration of services to be rendered by the Grantee to the Company. The Restricted Stock Awards vest twenty percent (20%) as of the Grant Date, with the balance of the Restricted Shares vesting in four equal annual installments on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the Grant Date, subject to the Grantee’s continued employment by the Company, as provided for in the Plan. Unvested portions of the Restricted Stock Award may not be transferred at any time, except to the extent provided for in the Plan. Until the Restricted Stock Award granted under this Agreement vests in accordance with the terms hereof, the Grantee shall have no rights as a stockholder (including, without limitation, voting and dividend rights) with respect to any of the Restricted Shares covered by the Restricted Stock Award.

 

Stock Options issued to Doctors/Proctors/Advisors (“Advisor’s”): The Company issues shares of the Company’s common stock (“Advisory Shares”) to retain and compensate certain Advisors for performing services for the Company and in exchange for the compensation, which is issued in a phased manner as determined by the company.

Stock option model and assumptions

 

The Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of stock options and RSU granted under the Company’s share based compensation plans and the rights to acquire stock granted under the stock options plans. The weighted-average estimated fair values of stock options and the rights to acquire stock as well as the weighted-average assumptions used in calculating the fair values of stock options and the rights to acquire stock that were granted during the period ending March 31, 2026 were as follows:

Expected volatility   18.29%   24.96%   18.50%   18.50%
Exercise prices  $0.0001   $5.00   $5.00   $0.0001 
Share price on the grant date  $5.52   $5.50   $7.76   $7.76 
Expected term of vesting   4 Years    2.5 years    4 years    4 years 

 

As share-based compensation expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of operations and comprehensive loss during the period ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures, if any.

 

As of March 31, 2026, there was $4,779,448, $9,693,678 total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options and restricted stock units to acquire common stock under the 2016 Inventive Stock plan respectively. The unrecognized compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.72 years for unvested stock options and restricted stock units for rights granted to acquire common stock under 2016 Incentive Stock Plan.
