| Stockholders' Equity |
Warrant Liabilities On May 7, 2021, the merger between Old Blade and EIC was consummated (the “Merger”). The warrants acquired in the Merger include (a) redeemable warrants issued by EIC and sold as part of the units in the EIC Initial Public Offering (“EIC IPO”) (whether they were purchased in the EIC IPO or thereafter in the open market), which are exercisable for an aggregate of 9,166,644 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $11.50 per share (the “Public Warrants”) and (b) warrants issued by EIC to the Experience Sponsor LLC (“Sponsor”) in a private placement simultaneously with the closing of the EIC IPO, which are exercisable for an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $11.50 per share (the “Private Placement Warrants”).
The Company evaluated its warrants under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, and concluded that they do not meet the criteria to be classified in stockholders’ equity. Accordingly, the Company classifies the warrants as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the
warrants to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of operations. See Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements for additional information.
Warrants — Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. The Public Warrants became exercisable on June 7, 2021. The Public Warrants will expire on May 7, 2026 or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
Redemptions of Warrants for Cash — The Company may redeem the Public Warrants:
•in whole and not in part;
•at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
•upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
•if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to each warrant holder.
Redemption of Warrants for Shares of Common Stock — The Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:
•in whole and not in part;
•at a price equal to a number of shares of common stock to be determined, based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Company’s common stock;
•upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption;
•if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations, and the like) on the trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders; and
•if, and only if, there is an effective registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and a current prospectus relating thereto is available throughout the 30-day period after the written notice of redemption is given.
If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption for cash, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis”, as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, or consolidation. However, except as described below, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net-cash settle the warrants.
The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the initial public offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees (unless the Class A common stock equals or exceed $10 per share and the Company redeem all the Public Warrants). If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. Stockholders' EquityPreferred Stock
The board of directors of the Company is authorized to provide, out of the unissued shares of Preferred Stock, for one or more series of Preferred Stock and, with respect to each such series, to fix, without further stockholder approval, the number of shares constituting such series and the designation of such series, the powers (including voting powers), preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of such series of Preferred Stock. The powers (including voting powers), preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of each series of Preferred Stock, if any, may differ from those of any and all other series at any time outstanding. There was no preferred stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.
Share Repurchase Program
On March 20, 2024, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company may repurchase, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $20.0 million of the Company's Class A common stock, exclusive of any fees, commissions or other expenses related to such repurchases. The Company’s stock repurchase programs may be suspended, modified or discontinued by the Board at any time without prior notice at the Company's discretion. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including corporate and regulatory requirements, price and other market conditions and management’s determination as to the appropriate use of our cash.
