Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Note 13 – Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated events subsequent to September 30, 2020 for potential recognition or disclosure in its condensed consolidated financial statements. There have been no material subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than noted below. On October 6, 2020, the Company completed an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of an aggregate of 5,462,500 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share, which included 712,500 shares of common stock sold pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriter’s option to purchase additional shares resulting in net proceeds to the Company from the Offering, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions, of approximately $9.1 million. At September 30, 2020 the Company had incurred approximately $1.2 million in prepaid costs directly associated with the public offering, of which approximately $0.6 million was associated with a non-cash common stock issuance for consulting services provided. These costs temporarily increased our other current assets balance by $1.2 million at September 30, 2020 and will subsequently offset proceeds from the public offering within additional paid-in capital on the closing date of October 6, 2020. On October 27, 2020, Heritage Global Partners, Inc. (“HGP”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement (the “Lease”) with Hayward FGHK Industrial, LLC (“Landlord”) pursuant to which HGP will lease 30,321 square feet of industrial space in Hayward, California from Landlord. The Lease has an initial term of ninety (90) months, unless terminated earlier by either party pursuant to the terms of the Lease. The Lease provides for an initial monthly base rent of $27,289, which increases on an annual basis to $33,562 per month in the final year. In addition, HGP is obligated to pay its share of maintenance costs of common areas. The Company is a guarantor of HGP’s obligations under the Lease including the payment of rent. There is no material relationship between the Company, or any of its affiliates, and the landlord, or any of its affiliates, other than the contractual relationship under the Lease.
