Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Note 13: Fair Value Measurement We use a fair-value approach to value certain liabilities. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. We use a fair value hierarchy, which distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:
• | Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
• | Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
• | Level three — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.
Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. We evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized as follows: The financial instrument that is measured at fair value on a recurring basis is summarized as follows as of March 31, 2015:
Liabilities |  | Level 1 |  |  | Level 2 |  |  | Level 3 |  |  | March 31, 2015 |
Derivative liability - embedded conversion feature |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 58,967 |  |  | $ | 58,967 |
At December 31, 2014 we had no Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value. The following table shows the change in Level 3 liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the period ended March 31, 2015:
|  | Derivative liability embedded conversion feature |
Balance, December 31, 2014 |  | $ | — |
Issuance during 2015 |  |  | 66,227 |
Unrealized gain on change in fair value |  |  | (7,260 | )
Balance, March 31, 2015 |  | $ | 58,967 |
On January 5, 2015, WMIHC raised $600 million of capital (less transaction costs) through the issuance of 600,000 Series B Preferred Shares. The shares carry a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, equal to their initial purchase price. In addition, they have a mandatory redemption right three years from issuance date at a price equal to the initial investment amount, and accrue dividends at 3.00% per annum. The purpose of the capital raise was principally to pursue strategic acquisitions of operating companies that fit the Company’s desired business model. Management intends to pursue such an acquisition or acquisitions with the proceeds of the capital raise, and should it occur during the three year term of the Series B Preferred Stock, there is a mandatory conversion of these shares into common stock of WMIHC. Mandatory conversion occurs at a price that is the lesser of:
i) | $2.25 per share of WMIHC common stock (the “Initial Conversion Price”); and
ii) | the arithmetic average of daily volume weighted average prices of WMIHC’s common stock during the 20 trading day period ending on the trading day immediately preceding the public announcement by WMIHC of its entry into a definitive agreement for such acquisition, subject to a floor of $1.75 per share of common stock (the “Floor Price”).
We use a binomial lattice option pricing model to value the embedded conversion feature that is subject to fair value liability accounting. The key inputs which we utilize in the determination of the fair value as of the reporting date include our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, expected stock price volatility over the term of the convertible preferred securities and risk-free interest rate. In addition, the model requires the input of an expected probability of occurrence and the timing of a Qualified Acquisition which initiates the mandatory conversion. The fair value of the embedded conversion feature liability is revalued each balance sheet date utilizing our model computations with the decrease or increase in fair value being reported in the statement of operations as unrealized gain or (loss) on change in fair value of derivative liability - embedded conversion feature, respectively. The primary factors affecting the fair value of the embedded conversion feature liability are the probability of occurrence and timing of a Qualified Acquisition, our stock price and our stock price volatility. In addition, the use of a model requires the input of subjective assumptions, and changes to these assumptions could provide differing results. Our reported net income was approximately $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. If the closing stock price of our common stock had been 10% lower, our net income would have been approximately $37.1 million higher. If the closing stock price of our common stock had been 10% higher, our net income would have been approximately $37.2 million lower. If our volatility assumption on March 31, 2015 had been 10% lower, our net income would have been approximately $11.5 million higher and if our volatility assumption had been 10% higher, our net income would have been approximately $11.3 million lower. If our probability of a transaction occurring assumption on March 31, 2015 had been 10% lower, our net income would have been approximately $6.6 million higher and if our probability of a transaction occurring assumption had been 10% higher, our net income would have been approximately $6.6 million lower.
