The Company adopted ASC 718 to account for stock-based awards measured at fair value, using the Black Scholes Model. The fair value compensation expense is based on the grant date of the stock options and warrants. which is the date the Company and employee reach a mutual agreement on the terms of the award. The cost is then recognized as an expense over the requisite service period and the recipient performs the required services.

 

The reliability of the grant-date fair value relies heavily on the quality and reasonableness of certain input assumptions. A significant input is the expected volatility of the Company’s stock over the option’s expected term. The expected term represents the period the Company anticipates the employee will hold the option before exercising it. The Black Scholes model requires the use of these assumptions to determine the fair value of the stock-based awards. The Company uses management’s best estimates, which include the awards expected term, the fair value of the common stock, the expected volatility of the price of the common stock, the risk-free interest rate,and the expected dividend yield of the common stock. The expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. The Company has based its expected term on the simplified method available under U.S. GAAP.

 

The stock options terminate between seven (7) and ten (10) years from the date of grant or upon termination of employment. As of December 31, 2025, the aggregate total of 565,000,000 stock options were outstanding.

 

The stock-based compensation expense recognized in the statement of operations during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, were $848,710 and $229,220, respectively.

 

As of December 31, 2025, there was no intrinsic value with regards to the outstanding options.
