+Added: This Valuation Period determines the final settlement of the Forward Counterparty’s purchase price through a true-up payment from the Forward Counterparty to the Company if the total amount due under any such Forward exceeds the Prepayment (the “True-Up Payment”).
+Added: Pursuant to the agreements described above, the Company entered into Forwards to sell 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock in the aggregate with the respective Reference Prices in respect of each Component of such Forwards ranging from $ 4.01 to $ 4.71 per share of Common Stock.
+Added: The Company evaluated the Forwards under ASC 815—Derivatives and Hedging and concluded that the transactions consist of a subscription receivable accounted for under ASC 505-10-45-2 reflecting the Company’s right to receive the Prepayment and deliver shares to the Forward Counterparty.
+Added: Accordingly, pursuant to Regulation S-X 5-02.29, the Company recorded the Prepayment as an increase to additional paid in capital with an equal and offsetting subscription receivable as a decrease to additional paid in capital.
+Added: The subscription receivable is considered a debt-like host and the Company’s right to receive additional cash consideration up to the Forward Cap Price based on the movement of the share price during the Valuation Period is an embedded feature that meets the definition of a derivative.
+Added: Because the True-Up Payment can be received in cash or shares of Common Stock at the Company’s election and the value mechanics within the instrument are all indexed to the Company’s own Common Stock, the embedded feature meets the equity classification scope exception in ASC 815-40 and is not accounted for outside of equity.
+Added: In January 2025, the Company was paid $ 108.7 million for the Prepayments in respect of the Forwards.
+Added: The Company reduced the subscription receivable which resulted in an increase in total additional paid in capital.
