Equity [Abstract] |
Stockholders' Equity Note Disclosure [Text Block] | STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Repurchases of Common Stock. In February 2018, Acacia’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $20,000,000 of the Company’s outstanding common stock in open market purchases or private purchases, from time to time, in amounts and at prices to be determined by the Board of Directors at its discretion (the “Stock Repurchase Program”). In determining whether or not to repurchase any shares of Acacia’s common stock, Acacia’s Board of Directors consider such factors as the impact of the repurchase on Acacia’s cash position, as well as Acacia’s capital needs and whether there is a better alternative use of Acacia’s capital. Acacia has no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock under the Stock Repurchase Program. Repurchases to date were made in the open market in compliance with applicable SEC rules. The authorization to repurchase shares presented an opportunity to reduce the outstanding share count and enhance stockholder value. The repurchased shares are expected to be retired. Monthly stock repurchases for the periods presented, all of which were purchased as part of a publicly announced plan or program, were as follows:
| Total Number of Shares Purchased | Average Price paid per Share | Approximate Dollar Value of Shares that May Yet be Purchased under the Program | Plan Expiration
May 1, 2018- May 30, 2018 | 1,190,420 |  | $ | 3.89 |  | $ | 15,366,000 |  | February 28, 2019
Totals for 2018 | 1,190,420 |  | $ | 3.89 |  |  |
Profits Interest Plan. On February 16, 2017, AIP Operation LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“AIP”), and an indirect subsidiary of Acacia, adopted a Profits Interest Plan (the “Plan”) that provides for the grant of membership interests in AIP to certain members of management and the Board of Directors of Acacia as compensation for services rendered for or on behalf of AIP. Each Unit granted pursuant to the Plan is intended to qualify as a “profits interest” for U.S. federal income tax purposes and will only have value to the extent the fair value of AIP increases beyond the fair value at the issuance date of the membership interests. The membership interests are represented by Units reserved for the issuance of awards under the Plan. The Units entitle the holders to share in or be allocated certain AIP profits and losses and to receive or share in AIP distributions pursuant to the AIP Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement entered into as of February 16, 2017 (the “LLC Agreement”). In connection with the adoption of the Plan, a form of Profits Interest Agreement was approved pursuant to which Units may be granted from time to time. Units vest upon AIP’s achievement of certain performance milestones (one-third upon 150% appreciation, and the remaining two-thirds upon 300% appreciation in value of Acacia’s aggregate investment in Veritone), subject to the continued service of the recipient, and are subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Profits Interest Agreement and the LLC Agreement. The Units were fully vested as of September 30, 2018. Acacia owns 60% of the membership interests in AIP and at all times will control AIP. Acacia from time to time may contribute to AIP certain assets or securities related to portfolio companies in which Acacia holds an interest. Units may be awarded as one-time, discretionary grants to recipients. As of September 30, 2018, AIP holds the Veritone 10% Warrant described in Note 5. Profits interests totaling 400 Units, or 40% of the membership interests in AIP, were granted in February 2017 pursuant to the Plan, with an aggregate grant date fair value of $722,000. The fair value of the Units totaled $1,422,000 as of September 30, 2018. The Company has a purchase option to purchase the vested Units that are not otherwise forfeited after termination of continuous service. The exercise price of the purchase option is the fair market value of the Units on the date of termination of continuous service. At each reporting date, the value of the Units that are subject to the purchase option will be the measured at the fair value on the termination date. Upon full vesting of the units in September 2017, all previously unrecognized compensation expense was immediately recognized. The fair value of the Units is calculated at 40% of the fair value of the 10% Warrant, based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model ("BSM"), as adjusted for an estimated DLOM, utilizing the following assumptions. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, assumptions utilized in the BSM included a term of 4 years, stock price from $10.43 - $21.60, volatility from 50% to 70%, and risk free interest rates of 2.47% - 2.88% for term of 4 years. The estimated DLOM utilized was 27% - 30%, based on assumptions including a term of approximately 4 years and a volatility of 74% - 82% for Veritone’s common stock. Volatility was estimated based on the historical volatilities of a set of comparable public companies, adjusted for leverage, over a term matching the term of the underlying warrant asset, which was approximately 4 years.
