a. Other assets

 

Other assets represent krill oil (“RKO”) held by the Corporation that was expected to be used in commercial inventory scale up related to the development and commercialization of the CaPre drug candidate. Given that the development of CaPre will no longer be pursued by Acasti, the Corporation is expected to sell this reserve. The other asset is being recorded at the fair value less cost to sell. Management’s estimate of the fair value of the RKO less cost to sell is based primarily on estimated market prices obtained from an appraiser specializing in the krill oil market. These projections are based on Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy and reflect management’s best estimate of market participants’ pricing of the assets as well as the general condition of the asset.

The announcement of the discontinuation of the CaPre program resulted in an impairment trigger for the laboratory and production equipment. The impairment loss is based on management’s estimate of the fair value of the equipment less cost to sell, which is based primarily on estimated market prices obtained from brokers specialized in selling used equipment. These projections are based on Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy and reflect the Corporation’s best estimate of market participants’ pricing of the assets as well as the general condition of the assets.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Corporation reclassed the following assets from assets held for sale as they no longer met the criteria of such classification.

Furthermore, depreciation expense of $167 was recognized related to the period from the date that the assets were classified as held for sale until the end of the current period. The reclassification from held for sale to equipment was reflected on the comparative balance sheet.
