NOTE 20.WARRANTS
Warrants Issued for Compensation
During the year ended April 30, 2013, 24,000 director warrants expired.
The fair value was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following table displays the weighted average assumptions that have been applied to estimate the fair value of warrants on the date of grant for the year ended April 30, 2013:
April 30, 2013 | |
Expected life (years) | 5 |
Risk-free interest rate | 2.49% |
Expected volatility | 67.84% |
Expected dividend yield | 0% |
(1) Expected Life: The expected life was determined based on the option's contractual term and employees' expected early exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior.
(2) Risk Free Rate: The risk-free interest rate was based on U.S. Treasury yields with a remaining term that corresponds to the expected term of the option calculated on the granted date.
(3) Expected Volatility: Expected volatility is computed based on the standard deviation of the continuously compounded rate of return of days when the stock price changed over the historical period of the expected life of the options.
(4) Dividend Yield: The expected dividend yield is zero. The Company has not paid a dividend and does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.
