Note 11. Fair Value Measurements – Warrant Derivative liability


 The accounting standard for fair value measurements provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The accounting standard established a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows. Level 1 input are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. An asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.


Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis consisted of the following at January 31, 2017 which related to 62,500 warrants which contained price protection:

Changes in fair value of the warrant derivative liability are included in other income (expense) in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.


The Company intends to provide notice to the warrant holder that they would redeem any unexercised warrants within 30 days in accordance with the warrant terms as the Company’s common stock trading average was at least twenty-five cents over ten consecutive trading days. Accordingly, the fixed monetary redemption value of $0.84 indicates the fair value as of January 31, 2017.


There were no changes in the valuation techniques during the three and nine month period ended January 31, 2017.
