The weighted average grant date fair value of warrants issued during 2025 was $22.47. The fair value of each warrant issued was estimated on the date of grant using a lattice valuation model with the following assumptions:

 

 Schedule of fair value of warrants

Expected dividend yield at date of issuance   0.0%
Risk-free interest rate   3.9% - 4.2%
Expected stock price volatility   90.6% - 140.0%
Expected life of warrants (years)   5.2 – 10.2 

 

The risk-free interest rate assumptions were based on the interpolated U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the issuance. Interpolated risk-free rate based upon the years to expiration. The expected volatility was based on historical volatility of comparable companies. The expected life is based on the term of the warrant agreements.
