WRM warrants:

If Strike= 1.65 and stock = 2.04, they are .49c in the money... ie. they MUST be worth @ least .49. Then they will have premium, but no I wouldn't expect them to trade 1.65. I think you are missing something.... that said however, I do think they're worth a buck!

The situation is this... these warrants give you the 'right' but not obligation [BIG distinction, if the company goes belly up, you lose only the amount you paid for the warrants] to buy the stock @ 1.65. You will have to pay 1.65 to turn you warrants into stock.

Hope that clears things up.

What you are missing is that the $1.65 is not a "strike."

The $1.65 is what you must pay in order to exercise the warrant.

You buy the warrant. Then you come up with the additional $1.65 Canadian and you buy the stock.

You are not buying the right the buy the stock at $1.65 the way you would with a call option that had a strike of $1.65.

What this also means is that if you are a US buyer of the warrant, and if the Canadian dollar rises, you have to pay more than you did when you bought the warrant.

The warrant is indeed in the money.

Its intrinsic value is the stock value minus the exercise (strike) price currently: $1.99 - $1.65 = $0.34

The warrants is $0.81 which is made of $0.34 intrinsic value and $0.47 time premium.
