NOTE 7 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS


We currently measure and report at fair value the liability for warrant derivative instruments. The fair value liabilities for price adjustable warrants have been recorded as determined utilizing the BSM option pricing model and Monte Carlo simulations. The following tables summarize our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2017:

The Company calculated the estimated fair values of the liabilities for warrant derivative instruments at March 31, June 30 and September 30, 2017 and at the warrant issuance dates of January 25, 2017 through August 22, 2017 with the Black Scholes Pricing Model (“BSM”) option pricing model and Monte Carlo simulations using the closing prices of the Company’s common stock of from $1.05 to $8.75 and the ranges for volatility, expected term and risk-free interest indicated below that follows (BSM inputs only). The Monte Carlo simulations were used to determine a range of expected volatilities and the implied volatility used was determined with a correlation to the highest probability results from that simulation.  Thus, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized a gain from the change in derivative liability of $1,901,219 included in the statement of operations under Other Income (Expense), Warrant Derivative Gain related to these warrant derivative instruments.
