The warrants shown in the table above outstanding as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, are equity classified warrants issued between May 2019 and January 2021. There was no intrinsic value associated with these equity warrants as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

 

In conjunction with the Alphia Term Loan Facility mentioned in Note 8 - Debt, the Company issued to Alphia (i) a warrant (the “First Tranche Warrant”) to purchase 6,545,338.45 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) at a price of $0.26 per share, and (ii) a warrant (the “Second Tranche Warrant” and together with the First Tranche Warrant, the “Warrants”) to purchase 8,222,787 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.26 per share. Unless exercised, the Warrants expire on June 21, 2028. Alphia’s exercise of the Second Tranche Warrant is subject to the approval of the Company’s stockholders. The Warrants contain certain anti-dilution provisions in favor of Alphia in connection with any equity offering consummated by the Company prior to December 21, 2023 and equity issuances below the exercise price of the Warrants. The Warrants also contain a cashless exercise option at the election of Alphia.

 

Additionally, in conjunction with the Term Loan, the Company entered into a Side Letter Agreement with Alphia (the “Side Letter”) pursuant to which Alphia was granted a right of first refusal on any of the following relating to the Company or any of its subsidiaries and to the extent such transactions constitute a change of control: (i) any transfer, sale, lease or encumbrance of all or any portion of the capital stock or assets (other than the sale of inventory in the ordinary course of business), (ii) any merger, consolidation or other business combination, (iii) any recapitalization, reorganization or any other extraordinary business transaction, (iv) or any equity issuance or debt incurrence. Alphia’s right of first refusal is effective so long as the Term Loan remains outstanding and for a period of 12 months thereafter. The Side Letter also provides Alphia with certain Board observer rights.

 

The Company evaluated the Alphia warrant liabilities under ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”), and concluded they do not meet the criteria to be classified in shareholders’ equity. Specifically, there are contingent exercise provisions and settlement provisions that exist, including provisions where the number of shares available under the warrants may be adjusted based on a percentage of equity. Because the number of outstanding common shares is not a fair value input to a fixed-for-fixed model, this provision violates indexation guidance. Therefore, the warrants are not indexed to the Company’s stock. The Alphia warrant liabilities will be remeasured at fair value each reporting period until provisions precluding equity classification lapse and the Company reassess the warrants classification. The total value of the consideration received in connection with the Alphia Term Loan Agreement was first allocated to warrants liabilities at fair value, with the remainder allocated to the Alphia Term Loan Agreement. Accordingly, the Company recorded a discount of $2.2 million on the Alphia Term Loan Agreement (see Note 8 – Debt for further discussion).

 

 

The Alphia warrant liabilities are determined using a risk-neutral Monte Carlo simulation based approach, a Level 3 valuation. The significant inputs to the warrant liabilities are as follows:

 

 

    September 30, 2023  
   

First Tranche

Second Tranche

Exercise price   $ 0.26     $ 0.26  
Stock price   $ 0.21     $ 0.21  
Volatility     66.0 %     66.0 %
Time to maturity     5 years       5 years  
Risk-free rate     5.55 %     4.63 %
Dividend yield     %     %

 

The following table summarizes the Alphia warrant liability activity for three and nine months ended September 30, 2023:

 

 

Fair value of warrant liabilities as of March 31, 2023   $  
Warrant liabilities incurred     2,208  
Loss (gain) in change of fair value of warrant liabilities      
Fair value of warrant liabilities as of June 30, 2023   $ 2,208  
Warrant liabilities incurred      
Loss (gain) in change of fair value of warrant liabilities     (1,339 )
Fair value of warrant liabilities as of September 30, 2023   $ 869  

 

The change in fair value related to the Alphia warrant liabilities was $(1.3) million for three months and nine months ended September 30, 2023. There were no transfers to/from levels 1, 2 and 3 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.
