NOTE 17 - BASIC LOSS PER SHARE

 

The basic and diluted net loss per share and weighted average number of shares of Common Stock used in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share are as follows:

 

   For the year ended
December 31,
 
   2025   2024 
Basic and diluted loss per share of common stock        
Numerator:        
Net loss   36,199    17,727 
Denominator:          
Number of shares of common stock outstanding   1,422,019    698,853 
Number of shares upon Pre-Funded Warrants exercise   209,001    
-
 
Number of shares upon fully vested Warrants exercise   17    17 
Total weighted-average number of shares of common stock, shares upon Pre-Funded Warrants and fully vested Warrants exercise used in computing basic loss per share   1,631,037    698,870 
Basic loss per share of common stock   22.19    25.37 
           
Diluted net loss per share of common stock          
Numerator:          
Net loss   36,199    17,727 
Change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants   
-
    26,458 
Diluted net loss   36,199    44,185 
Denominator:          
Weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding   1,631,037    698,870 
Private Placement Warrants   
-
    58,879 
Total weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding, after giving effect to dilutive securities   1,631,037    757,749 
Diluted net loss per share of common stock   22.19    58.31 

 

Basic loss per share is computed on the basis of the net loss for the period divided by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period, fully vested warrants with no exercise price for the Company’s Common Stock and fully vested Pre-Funded Warrants for the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.019 per share, as the Company considers these shares to be exercised for little to no additional consideration.

 

Diluted loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and of potential shares of Common Stock outstanding when dilutive. Potential shares of Common Stock equivalents include outstanding stock options and warrants, which are included under the treasury stock method when dilutive.

 

The calculation of diluted loss per share as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, does not include the shares underlying the following financial instruments because their effect would be anti-dilutive:

 

   For the year ended
December 31,
 
   2025   2024 
Options   150,387    105,388 
Warrants   959,687    77,647 
Contingent shares   10,526    10,526 
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Shares   776,383    777,553 

About Earnings Per Share Disclosures

The earnings per share disclosure breaks down the calculation from net income to both basic and diluted EPS, revealing the full impact of a company's capital structure on per-share economics. The reconciliation between basic and diluted share counts exposes how many stock options, RSUs, convertible securities, and warrants are potentially dilutive to existing shareholders.

Key signals: a widening gap between basic and diluted shares indicates growing dilution from equity compensation or convertible instruments. Anti-dilutive securities excluded from the diluted calculation deserve attention — they represent latent dilution that will materialize if the stock price rises. Watch for the effect of share buybacks on per-share metrics: EPS growth driven primarily by repurchases rather than income growth signals weakening fundamentals. Compare year-over-year changes in the diluted share count against equity compensation expense to assess whether management is effectively managing dilution.
