Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | 2. Fair value measurement In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, (“ASC Topic 820”), the Company measures its cash and cash equivalents and investments at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company also measures certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis when applying acquisition accounting. ASC Topic 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. 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. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. Level 3 – Unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. The fair value of the Astero Contingent Consideration liability was initially valued based on unobservable inputs using a Black-Scholes valuation model. These inputs included the estimated amount and timing of projected future revenue, a discount rate of 17.5%, risk-free rates between 2.29% and 2.41% and revenue volatility of 56%. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. Generally, changes used in the assumptions for projected future revenue and revenue volatility would be accompanied by a directionally similar change in the fair value measurement. Conversely, changes in the discount rate would be accompanied by a directionally opposite change in the related fair value measurement. However, due to the Contingent Consideration having a maximum payout amount, changes in these assumptions would not affect the fair value of the Contingent Consideration if they increase (decrease) beyond certain amounts. Subsequent to the acquisition date, as of each reporting period, the Contingent Consideration liability is re-measured to fair value with changes recorded in the Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the most recent re-measurement of the Contingent Consideration liability as of September 30, 2021, the Company assessed the probability of meeting previously determined metrics as unlikely. The Company recognized reductions of $0 and $81,000 in the Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. This Contingent Consideration liability is presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020 in the amount of $81,000. Certain assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the Contingent Consideration are uncertain by nature. Actual results may differ materially from estimates. The fair value of the CBS Contingent Consideration liability was initially valued based on unobservable inputs using a Monte Carlo simulation. These inputs included the estimated amount and timing of projected future revenue, a discount rate of 26.0%, a risk-free rate of approximately 1.74% and revenue volatility of 70%. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. Generally, changes used in the assumptions for projected future revenue and revenue volatility would be accompanied by a directionally similar change in the fair value measurement. Conversely, changes in the discount rate would be accompanied by a directionally opposite change in the related fair value measurement. However, due to the Contingent Consideration having a maximum payout amount, changes in these assumptions would not affect the fair value of the Contingent Consideration if they increase (decrease) beyond certain amounts. Subsequent to the acquisition date, as of each reporting period, the Contingent Consideration liability is re-measured to fair value with changes recorded in the Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the most recent re-measurement of the Contingent Consideration liability as of September 30, 2021, the Company used a discount rate of 21.0%, a risk-free rate of 0.23% and revenue volatility of 63%. This Contingent Consideration Liability is presented in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 in the amount of $140,000. Certain assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the Contingent Consideration are uncertain by nature. Actual results may differ materially from estimates. The fair value of the SciSafe Contingent Consideration liability was initially valued based on unobservable inputs using a Monte Carlo simulation. These inputs included the estimated amount and timing of projected future revenue, a discount rate of 4.5%, a risk-free rate of approximately 0.20%, asset volatility of 60%, and revenue volatility of 15%. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. Generally, changes used in the assumptions for projected future revenue and revenue volatility would be accompanied by a directionally similar change in the fair value measurement. Conversely, changes in the discount rate would be accompanied by a directionally opposite change in the related fair value measurement. However, due to the Contingent Consideration having a maximum payout amount, changes in these assumptions would not affect the fair value of the Contingent Consideration if they increase (decrease) beyond certain amounts. As of the acquisition date, the Contingent Consideration was determined to have a fair value of $3.7 million. Subsequent to the acquisition date, the Contingent Consideration liability is re-measured to fair value with changes recorded in the Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the most recent re-measurement of the Contingent Consideration liability as of September 30, 2021, the Company used a discount rate of 6.8%, a risk-free rate of approximately 0.47%, asset volatility of 61%, and revenue volatility of 22%. The SciSafe Contingent Consideration, if earned, is to be paid in shares of BioLife’s common stock. As such, changes in BioLife’s stock price directly impact the fair value of the SciSafe Contingent Consideration as of each measurement date. This Contingent Consideration liability is presented in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 in the amount of $8.1 million and $6.9 million, respectively. The Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration of a decrease of $141,000 and an increase of $1.2 million associated with this liability is presented within the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Certain assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the Contingent Consideration are uncertain by nature. Actual results may differ materially from estimates. For the warrant liability, the significant Level 3 inputs included the contractual remaining term of the warrants and the volatility of the Company’s common stock. For the estimated term of the warrants, we used the actual terms of the warrants, which expired March 25, 2021. For the volatility of the Company’s stock as of December 31, 2020, we used historical volatility for the remaining term of each warrant. These amounts ranged from 56.8% to 84.6%. We did not make any adjustments to the historical volatility. Certain assumptions used in estimating the fair value of the warrants are uncertain by nature. On March 25, 2021, the expiration date of all remaining warrants, all remaining warrants were exercised via a “cashless” exercise and the warrant liability was revalued to its intrinsic value, as the Company’s stock price was observable as of that date. There were no remeasurements to fair value during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 of financial assets and liabilities that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The following tables set forth the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, based on the three-tier fair value hierarchy: (In thousands)
