Warrants outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 included warrants with the potential to be settled in cash, which are liability-classified warrants. As of December 31, 2021, 13,268 warrants are accounted for as liabilities and 6,732 warrants are accounted for as equity. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the 6,732 warrants accounted as equity expired and the 13,268 warrants accounted for as liabilities remained outstanding as of December 31, 2022.

 

Warrants Classified as Liabilities

 

Liability-classified warrants consist of warrants issued by Biozone in connection with equity financings in October 2013 and January 2014, which were assumed by the Company in connection with its merger with Biozone in January 2014. Warrants accounted for as liabilities have the potential to be settled in cash or are not indexed to the Company’s own stock.

 

The estimated fair value of outstanding warrants accounted for as liabilities is determined at each balance sheet date. Any decrease or increase in the estimated fair value of the warrant liability since the most recent balance sheet date is recorded in the consolidated statement of operations as changes in fair value of derivative liabilities. The fair value of the warrants classified as liabilities is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following inputs as of December 31, 2022:

 

    October 2013

Cumulative volatility     143.06 %     145.00 %

The fair value of the warrants classified as liabilities is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following inputs as of December 31, 2021:

Strike price   $ 180.00     $ 180.00  
Expected dividend yield     0.00 %     0.00 %
Expected term (years)     1.8       2.0  
Cumulative volatility     129.65 %     128.17 %
Risk-free rate     0.06 %     0.08 %
Fair value (in thousands)   $ 2     $ 10  

 

The Company estimates volatility using its own historical stock price volatility based upon the range of periods consistent with the expected life of the warrants. The expected life assumption is based on the remaining contractual terms of the warrants. The risk-free rate is based on the zero-coupon rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The dividend yield used in the pricing model is zero, because the Company has no present intention to pay cash dividends.
