Shareholders' Equity

Note 21:       Shareholders’ Equity

 

Common Stock: After giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split, our Articles of Incorporation authorize 10 million shares of common stock that may be issued from time to time having such rights, powers, preferences and designations as the Board of Directors may determine.  During the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, no shares of common stock were issued. As of March 30, 2019, and December 29, 2018, there were 1,695 and 1,695 shares, respectively, of common stock issued and outstanding.

 

Stock options: The 2016 Plan authorizes the granting of awards in any of the following forms: (i) incentive stock options, (ii) nonqualified stock options, (iii) restricted stock awards, and (iv) restricted stock units, and expires on the earlier of October 28, 2026, or the date that all shares reserved under the 2016 Plan are issued or no longer available. The 2016 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 400 shares of common stock pursuant to awards granted under the 2016 Plan. Options granted to employees typically vest over two years, while grants to non-employee directors vest in six months. As of March 30, 2019, and December 29, 2018, 4 options were outstanding under the 2016 Plan.

 

Our 2011 Plan authorizes the granting of awards in any of the following forms: (i) stock options, (ii) stock appreciation rights, and (iii) other share-based awards, including but not limited to, restricted stock, restricted stock units or performance shares, and expires on the earlier of May 12, 2021, or the date that all shares reserved under the 2011 Plan are issued or no longer available. Options granted to employees typically vest over two years, while grants to non-employee directors vest in six months. As of March 30, 2019, and December 29, 2018, 97 options were outstanding under the 2011 Plan. No additional awards will be granted under the 2011 Plan after the adoption of the 2016 Plan.

 

We issue new common stock when stock options are exercised. The Company periodically grants stock options that vest based upon the achievement of performance targets. For performance-based options, the Company evaluates the likelihood of the targets being met and records the expense over the probable vesting period.

 

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. No options were issued in fiscal years 2018 and 2017. No options were issued in the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2019.

We recognized no share-based compensation expense related to option grants for the 13 weeks ended March 30, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively.  The aggregate intrinsic value in the preceding table represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value, based on our closing stock price of $2.20 on March 30, 2019, which theoretically could have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of that date.  As of March 30, 2019 and December 29, 2018, there were no in-the-money options exercisable.

 

Based on the value of options outstanding as of March 30, 2019, we do not estimate any future share-based compensation expense for existing options issued. This estimate does not include any expense for additional options that may be granted and vest in subsequent years.

 

Warrants: On November 8, 2016, we issued a warrant to Energy Efficiency Investments, LLC (EEI) to purchase 33 shares of common stock at a price of $3.40 per share. The fair value of the warrant issued was $106 and it was exercisable in full at any time during a term of five years. The fair value per share of common stock underlying the warrant issued to EEI was $3.15 based on our closing stock price of $4.75. The exercise price may be reduced and the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased under the warrant may be increased if the Company issues or sells additional shares of common stock at a price lower than the then-current warrant exercise price or the then-current market price of the common stock. The shares underlying the warrant include legal restrictions regarding the transfer or sale of the shares. This warrant contains a blocker provision under which EEI does not have the right to exercise this warrant to the extent that such exercise would result in beneficial ownership by EEI, together with any of EEI’s affiliates, of more than 4.99% of the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this warrant (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). EEI is entitled to, among other things, upon notice to us, increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this warrant, with such increase to take effect 61 days after such notice is delivered to us. EEI elected to increase the Beneficial Ownership Limitation to 9.99% and we elected to waive the 61-day notice period. The fair value of the EEI warrant was recorded as deferred financing costs and is being amortized over the term of the commitment.

 

As of March 30, 2019, and December 29, 2018, we had fully vested warrants outstanding to purchase 33 shares of common stock at a price of $3.40 per share and expire in May 2020.

 

Preferred Stock:  Our Articles of Incorporation authorize two million shares of preferred stock that may be issued from time to time in one or more series having such rights, powers, preferences and designations as the Board of Directors may determine.  In August 2017, we issued 288,588 shares (number specific – not rounded) of Series A convertible preferred stock in connection with the acquisition of GeoTraq.
