Fair Value Measurements

(14) Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements” states 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 at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are reported using a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy maximizes the use of observable input and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The following is a description of the three hierarchy levels.

 

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
   
Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
   
Level 3 Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability.

 

Disclosure of Fair Values

 

The Company’s financial instruments that are not re-measured at fair value include cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, contract assets and liabilities, deposits, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair values and are viewed as Level 1 items. The Company’s warrant liabilities represent the only asset or liability classified financial instrument that is measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

The fair value of the Company’s warrant liabilities (refer to Note 8) is based on the Black-Scholes pricing model which is based on Level 3 unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions. The assumptions used by the Company are the quoted price of the Company’s common stock in an active market, risk-free interest rate, volatility and expected life, and assumes no dividends. Volatility is based on the actual market activity of the Company’s stock. The expected life is based on the remaining contractual term of the warrants and the risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury Securities with a maturity equivalent to the warrants’ expected life. The fair value on a recurring basis as of October 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021 was near zero.

 

There were no unrealized gains or losses for the three and six months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020. When incurred, gains and losses are included within “Gain (loss) due to change in fair value of warrant liabilities” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company determined the fair value using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

 

   October 31, 2021   October 31, 2020 
         
Dividend rate   0.0%   0.0%
Risk-free rate   0.06% - 0.08%   0.12% - 0.13%
Expected life (years)   0.1    0.8 - 1.1 
Expected volatility   122.2%   139.1%

 

Transfers into or out of any hierarchy level are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which the transfers occurred. There were no transfers between any hierarchy levels during each of the three and six months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020.
