Testing the NYU Stern warrant evaluation ---------------------------------------------------- Enter the current stock price = 0.195 Enter the strike price on the option =0.200 Enter the expiration of the option = 3 years / 0.58 year Enter the standard deviation in stock prices =25.00% (volatility) Enter the annualized dividend yield on stock =0.00% Enter the treasury bond rate = 3.85% Enter the number of warrants (options) outstanding =183031190 Enter the number of shares outstanding =402668580
Value of the call = $0.01 / $0.00
This spreadsheet gives 1 sen value to a warrant with 3 years to maturity. That is NOT right.
Testing MPAY on NWU Kellogg's warrant Evaluation www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/faculty/thompsnt/htm/d42/ftp/warrval.xls ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Differences in input : 0.67 year i.e. 8 months to maturity instead of 0.58 3.44% 1-year bond rate instead of 3.85 for 8-year bond adjusted volatility to obtain final Implied Volatility of 25.41%
Black Scholes gives 7.06 sen Binomial (CRR) gives 7.07 sen
----- for 3 years to maturity Black Scholes gives 15.21 sen Binomial (CRR) gives 15.21 sen
CONCLUSION : The warrant pricing on this one is more realistic. Fair value of MPAY-WA is 7 sen when mother is 19.5 sen.
@eastland I fully agree with you. Its accumulation time not ramping stock time. @L2 you obviously key in the wrong data sets. The correct data sets indicates 3 cent. The warrant is overpriced full stop and the mother share is in accumulation phase not bull phase.
madiba, pray tell which figure is obviously wrongly keyed from the direct copy-paste below. they follow your figures with the exception of the warrant and share count from online broking and adding another test for 3 years as a countercheck.

@L2 good morning. Applying your subsets into the NYU model below.
Valuing Warrants when there is dilution.
This program is designed to value cash converting warrants, the exercise of which can create more shares and thus affect the stock price. As a general rule, using an unadjusted option pricing model like the BS Model to value these warrants will overstate their value.
Enter the current stock price = 19 cent Enter the strike price on the option = 20 cent Enter the expiration of the option = 0.67 Enter the standard deviation in stock prices = 25.41% (volatility) Enter the annualized dividend yield on stock = 0.00% Enter the treasury bond rate = 3.44% Enter the number of warrants (options) outstanding = 183031190 Enter the number of shares outstanding = 402668580
VALUING WARRANTS WHEN THERE IS DILUTION Stock Price= 19 # Warrants issued= 183031190 Strike Price= 20 # Shares outstanding= 402,668,580 Adjusted S = 13.07298345 T.Bond rate= 3.44% Adjusted K= 20 Variance= 0.0646 Expiration (in years) = 0.67 Annualized dividend yield= 0.00% Div. Adj. interest rate= 3.44%
d1 = -1.82944836 N (d1) = 0.033666234
d2 = -2.037438174 N (d2) = 0.020803076
Fair Value of the warrant = $0.03

I will definitely not buy the warrant and just continue to accumulate the mother share slowly next few weeks given this bear market phase.
madiba, hi may I know why are u being so confident to Mpay? Becoz as I see, mpay is always a no energy counter, whenever it cross 0.200 or 0.205 than it will stop there or either drop back again. Any info that can prove ur statement madiba? plz enlighten me thx
Grace...i guess u r new to mpay.... mpay has always been upward trend for past two years. It never let me down n i got steady inflow of income from this counter. It only fall flat sometime in july 2014 due to nil trs contract. I still believe it will rise again n bring in all the cash for me....good luck mpayians!!!
Yes have go in when it was 0.238 and it seems like will never go up to my avr price but indeed keep on dropping. LT54, any idea bout the company financial report?
Good morning. Last Friday late Bursa filing of another 500k shares bought back by the major shareholder Mr Chew confirms my earlier posting on Dec 2:

@pzul avoid buying the warrants at any price unless it drops to 2-3 cents assuming the mother share is at 20 cents. As it moves into year 2015 the current premium of 35% will quickly diminish as the time value evaporates.
Applying the Black-Scholes model the imputed fair value of the warrant is only 2.5 cent ceteris paribus. Even the major shareholder Mr Chew has sold off all his warrants back in August around 16 cents and have not bought back any warrants at all.
I will not be surprised if Mr Chew starts buying back his own mother share next few weeks. That will be a confidence signal that the major shareholders have stopped selling and the accumulation is a signal of better firmer stock prices moving forward.
In total Mr Chew has bought back 1 million shares from the open market last week. Expect this buy back to continue this week moving forward. Its accumulation mode not selling mode. My stance remains the same at this level...accumulate.
