Fair Value Measurement of Assets and Liabilities Fair Value Measurements of Assets and Liabilities
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity's own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to Level 1 and the lowest priority to Level 3. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates) and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Carrying amounts reported on the balance sheets for cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. Our outstanding debt is variable rate debt that re-prices frequently, thereby limiting our exposure to significant changes in interest rate risk. As a result, the fair value of our debt instruments approximates carrying value at October 31, 2025 and 2024 (Level 2 measurement).
As of October 31, 2025, we have outstanding forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge our foreign currency exposures
against the Mexican Peso (“MXN”) to U.S. Dollar (“USD”), with a notional principal amount of $20.0 million. Hedge accounting is not applied to our forward exchange contracts. These contracts have a range of maturities up to February 27, 2026. Our forward foreign exchange contracts are adjusted to fair value by recording gains and losses to “Other, net,” and we record the related asset or liability to “Other Assets” or “Current Liabilities” in the accompanying consolidated statement of (loss) income and consolidated balance sheets, respectively. During the year ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, we recognized a net loss of less than $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, related to our forward foreign exchange contracts. The value of our forward foreign exchange contracts fluctuates based on exchange rate fluctuations against the USD to GBP, and the MXN to USD (Level 2 measurements).
During the twelve months ended October 31, 2025, we subscribed to Bonds for the Reconstruction for a Free Argentina (“BOPREAL”) issued by the Argentine Central Bank. The BOPREAL bond subscriptions were denominated in Argentine Pesos (“ARS”) and settled in USD during the twelve months ended October 31, 2025, resulting in total proceeds of the BOPREAL bonds to be approximately $2.6 million after $0.1 million deduction of taxes and transaction fees. As of October 31, 2025, we do not have any BOPREAL bond subscriptions outstanding.
Our restricted stock units and performance share awards are marked-to-market on a quarterly basis during a three-year vesting period based on market data. For further information refer to Note 14, “Stock-Based Compensation - Performance Share Awards.”
We performed a fair value assessment corresponding with the purchase of Tyman. Due to the unique nature of this acquisition, this is considered a Level 3 measurement. For further information refer to Note 2, “Acquisitions.”
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, we record assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Generally, assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges. The result of our third quarter 2025 goodwill impairment quantitative test indicated that the fair value of certain reporting units were less than the carrying value of the respective reporting units, resulting in a goodwill impairment of $302.3 million. We estimated the fair value utilizing an income approach and market approach valuation techniques, which incorporated significant unobservable Level 3 inputs. For further information, refer to Note 7, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets”.
