In the three and six months ended April 30, 2013, the Company had outstanding warrants that required settlement by transferring assets under certain change of control circumstances and were classified as liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company measured the fair value of the warrants at each balance sheet date, using the Black-Scholes method, and recorded a gain or loss in earnings each period as change in fair value of warrants. The warrants expired in March 2013. A summary of the changes to the Company’s warrant liability, as measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), for the three and six months ended April 30, 2013 is presented below:

The carrying value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, due from factor, and advances from customers are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of their short-term maturity.
