Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | 12. Commitments and Contingencies Contingent Consideration In connection with its acquisitions of Quantum Technology Sciences, Inc. (“Quantum”) and the OptoSeis® fiber optic sensing technology business, the Company recorded contingent purchase price payments, or contingent consideration, that may be owed in the future. For both acquisitions, the contingent payments are based on future receipt of contract awards and the resulting revenue derived from such contracts. The Company utilizes the services of independent valuation consultants to assist with the estimation of the fair value of this contingent consideration. The determination of fair value is inherently unpredictable since it requires estimates and projections of future revenue, including the size, length, timing and, in the case of Quantum, the extent of gross profits earned under its future contracts. As a result, the Company anticipates fair value adjustments to these liabilities over the respective earn-out periods, and these adjustments will result in either charges or credits to the Company’s operating expenses when the fair value of the contingent consideration increases or decreases, respectively. The Company recorded an initial contingent earn-out liability of $7.7 million in connection with its July 2018 acquisition of Quantum. Contingent payments, if any, may be paid in the form of cash or Company stock and will be derived from eligible revenue generated during a four-year earn-out period ending July 2022. The maximum amount of contingent payments is $23.5 million over the four-year earn-out period. At September 30, 2020, the contingent earn-out liability was valued at $5.8 million. During the three months ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded an adjustment of $0.8 million to decrease the liability to an estimated fair value of $5.0 million. The decrease in the earn-out liability for the three months ended December 31, 2020 was due to a decrease in projected eligible revenue. The Company recorded an initial contingent earn-out liability of $4.3 million in connection with its November 2018 acquisition of all the intellectual property and related assets of the OptoSeis® fiber optic sensing technology. Contingent cash payments, if any, will be derived from eligible revenue generated during a five-and-a-half year earn-out period ending in May 2024. The maximum amount of contingent payments is $23.2 million over the five-and-a-half year earn-out period. At September 30, 2020, the contingent earn-out liability was valued at $5.2 million. During the three months ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded an adjustment of $0.1 million to increase the liability to an estimated value of $5.3 million. The Company reviews and assesses the fair value of its contingent earn-out liabilities on a quarterly basis. Operating Leases The Company leases office space and certain equipment for terms of seven years or less. As of December 31, 2020, future minimum lease obligations, inclusive of leases which have not yet commenced, were $0.9 million. Legal Proceedings The Company is involved in various pending legal actions in the ordinary course of its business. Management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, because of the inherent uncertainty of such actions. However, management believes that the most probable, ultimate resolution of these pending matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
