Business Combinations [Abstract]
ACQUISITION	ACQUISITION On July 1, 2013, Orion acquired all of the equity interests of Harris Manufacturing, Inc. and Harris LED, LLC (collectively, "Harris"). Harris was a Florida-based lighting company which engineered, designed, sourced and manufactured energy-efficient lighting systems, including fluorescent and LED lighting solutions, and day-lighting products. The acquisition was consummated pursuant to a Stock and Unit Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 22, 2013 ("Purchase Agreement"), by and among Harris, the shareholders and members of Harris ("Harris Shareholders"), and Orion. The acquisition consideration paid to the Harris Shareholders was valued under the Purchase Agreement at an aggregate of $10,801,000, plus an adjustment of approximately $200,000 to reflect Orion's acquisition of net working capital in excess of a targeted amount, plus an additional $612,000 for the contingent consideration earn-out value assigned to non-employee Harris shareholders. On October 21, 2013, Orion executed a letter agreement amending the Purchase Agreement. The letter agreement established a fixed future consideration of $1,371,000 for the previously existing earn-out component of the Purchase Agreement and eliminated the requirement that certain revenue targets must be achieved. Under the letter agreement, on January 2, 2014, Orion issued $571,000, or 83,943 shares, of Orion's unregistered common stock. The fixed consideration was determined based upon the existing share calculation at a fair value of $3.80 per common share. On January 2, 2015, Orion would pay $800,000 in cash to settle all outstanding obligations related to the earn-out component of the Purchase Agreement. In December 2014, Orion amended the letter agreement to defer the January 2, 2015 payment of $800,000 in cash until February 13, 2015, to settle all outstanding obligations related to the earn-out component of the Purchase Agreement. The final payment was made on February 12, 2015. The Purchase Agreement contained customary representations and warranties, as well as indemnification obligations, and limitations thereon, by Orion and the Harris Shareholders. On December 31, 2014, Harris was merged with and into Orion. Orion recorded $612,000 for the non-employee Harris Shareholder portion of the contingent consideration liability on the acquisition date. During the year ended March 31, 2015, Orion expensed $147,000 in compensation expense as contingent consideration for employee Harris shareholders.
