Note 10 — Fair Value Measurements

 

Pursuant to the accounting guidance for fair value measurements, fair value is defined as the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the asset or liability would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

 

Fair Value Hierarchy

 

Under fair value accounting guidance, there is a three-tier fair value hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect management’s market assumptions.

 

The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels are defined as follows:

 

  Level 1 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities.
     
  Level 2 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are other observable inputs, including quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities and market-corroborated inputs.
     
  Level 3 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs based on management’s best estimate of inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date, including assumptions about risk.

 

Set forth below is a summary of liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on the three-level valuation hierarchy:

    Total  
Liabilities                        
At September 30, 2012 — Contingent earnout liability   $     $     $ 5,000,000     $ 5,000,000  
                                 
At June 30, 2012 — Contingent earnout liability   $     $     $ 5,000,000     $ 5,000,000  

 

This liability relates to the estimated fair value of earnout payments to former SeaBotix Inc. stockholders for calendar years 2012, 2013 and 2014. Refer to Note 3 to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for SeaBotix Inc. acquisition information.

 

There have been no changes in the total Level 3 liability of $5,000,000 from June 30, 2012 to September 30, 2012. However, the current portion was adjusted from $1,700,000 at June 30, 2012 to $2,400,000 at September 30, 2012, and the non-current portion was adjusted from $3,300,000 at June 30, 2012 to $2,600,000 at September 30, 2012.

 

The Company determined the fair value of the contingent earnout liability using a probability weighted approach. The principal inputs to the approach include expectations of SBX’s revenue in calendar years 2012 through 2014 and the probability of achieving required gross margin thresholds using an appropriate discount rate. Given the use of significant inputs that are not observable in the market, the contingent liability is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
