Fair Value Of Financial Instruments [Abstract] |
Fair Value Of Financial Instruments | 12. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting standards related to fair value measurements include a hierarchy for information and valuations used in measuring fair value that is broken down into the following three levels based on reliability: Level 1 valuations are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments that we can access at the measurement date. Level 2 valuations are based on inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the instrument, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability including the following: a.quoted prices for similar, but not identical, instruments in active markets; b.quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; c.inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the instrument; or d.inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. Level 3 valuations are based on information that is unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The book values of our financial instruments at August 31, 2023 and 2022 approximated their fair values. The assessment of the fair values of our financial instruments is based on a variety of factors and assumptions. Accordingly, the fair values may not represent the actual values of the financial instruments that could have been realized at August 31, 2023 or 2022, or that will be realized in the future, and do not include expenses that could be incurred in an actual sale or settlement. The following methods and assumptions were used to determine the fair values of our financial instruments, none of which were held for trading or speculative purposes. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Accounts Receivable – The carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable approximate their fair values due to the liquidity and short-term maturity of these instruments. Other Assets – Our other assets, including notes receivable, were recorded at the net realizable value of estimated future cash flows from these instruments. Debt Obligations – At August 31, 2023, our debt obligations consisted primarily of a variable-rate term loan payable and a note payable to the former owners of Strive. Our term loan payable and revolving line of credit are negotiated components of our new 2023 Credit Agreement (Note 6), which was completed in March 2023 and replaced the 2019 Credit Agreement. Since the interest rate for any obligation on our 2023 Credit Agreement is variable, the applicable interest rates and other conditions related to the term loan and revolving line of credit are reflective of current market conditions, and the carrying value of term loan and revolving line of credit (when applicable) obligations therefore approximate their fair value. Contingent Consideration Liabilities from Business Acquisitions The acquisition price of Jhana Education (Jhana), which was completed in fiscal 2017, included total potential contingent consideration of $7.2 million through a specified measurement period, which lasted through July 2026. We measured the fair value of this contingent consideration liability at each reporting date based on a Monte Carlo simulation model. The fair value of the Jhana contingent consideration was a Level 3 measurement because we estimated consolidated Company and AAP sales over the measurement period. Changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities were recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated income statements and statements of comprehensive income in the period of adjustment. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability from the acquisition of Jhana changed as follows during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2023 (in thousands):
|  |  |  |  | Change in |  |  |  |  |  |
AUGUST 31, |  | 2022 |  | Fair Value |  | Payments |  | 2023
Jhana contingent liability |  | $ | 729 |  | $ | 7 |  | $ | (736) |  | $ | -
At August 31, 2023, we have no further contingent consideration payable or other liabilities to the former owners of Jhana.
