FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS [Abstract]

12.	FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We account for the fair values of our assets and liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure. The following table summarizes the fair value hierarchy of our financial instruments as of December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2015 (in thousands):

			Fair Value Measurement Using
	Recorded Amount		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
December 31, 2015:
Assets:

Money market funds	$	9,505	$	9,505	$	-	$	-

Liabilities:

Contingent consideration	$	990	$	-	$	-	$	990

			Fair Value Measurement Using
	Recorded Amount		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
March 31, 2015:
Assets:

Money market funds	$	25,004	$	25,004	$	-	$	-

Liabilities:

Contingent consideration	$	1,830	$	-	$	-	$	1,830

For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2015, we recorded adjustments that increased the fair value of our liability for contingent consideration by $3 thousand and $318 thousand, respectively, and such adjustments were presented within general and administrative expenses in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. There was no adjustment in fair value recognized in either the three or the nine months ended December 31, 2014. We estimated the fair value using a Monte Carlo simulation model.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2015, we paid $1.2 million to satisfy the first year of the contingent consideration arrangement.
