 Summary of changes in warrant derivative liability 

On February 10, 2022, TC BioPharm (Holdings) plc completed an IPO on Nasdaq, issuing American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) and warrants to buy ADSs. The ADSs and warrants are considered two freestanding financial instruments because each can be traded separately. The exercise price of the Warrants is $4.25 per ADS and will expire on the sixth anniversary of the date of issuance. The exercise price is subject to standard anti-dilutive adjustments in the event of certain stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends or recapitalizations, and it is also subject to adjustment in certain events specified in the warrant agreement.

15. Warrant derivative liabilities (continued)

On November 27, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”) as purchasers. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold, and the Investors purchased in a private placement an aggregate of 155,000 American Depositary Shares (the “ADSs”), pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,315,000 ADS (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), series A purchase warrants to purchase up to 1,470,000 ADSs (the “Series A Ordinary Warrants”) and series B purchase warrants to purchase up to 1,470,000 ADSs (the “Series B Ordinary Warrants” and together with the Series A Ordinary Warrants, the “Ordinary Warrants”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $7,350,000 (£6,073,376), excluding any proceeds that may be received upon exercise of the Ordinary Warrants. The purchase price for each ADS and associated Ordinary Warrants is $5.00 and the purchase price per each Pre-Funded Warrant and associated Ordinary Warrants is $4.999.

Given the warrants include a net settlement clause and the exercise (or strike) price of the warrants is denominated in a foreign currency ($) other than the Company’s functional currency, management concluded that the warrants should be accounted for as derivative financial instruments and presented as a liability on the consolidated statement of financial position with the changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income/(loss).

The relative fair values of the derivative liability and the equity component were calculated and based on the actual transaction price will be allocated to the equity and the liability components using the relative fair value method.

As at the date of issue of the warrants on November 27, 2022, the calculated fair value of the warrants was in excess of the fair value of the consideration received. The difference (£1,472,746) was debited to the Income Statement. The related transactions costs (£593,337) associated with the issue were also included within the Income Statement as part of the Change in fair value of warrant derivatives.
