Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies

Government grant

In 2008, the Company was awarded research and development grant funding from Scottish Enterprise amounting to £1,791, for the development of MosaiQ. The total grant claimed to September 30, 2017 is £1,790. The Company updates Scottish Enterprise periodically with the status of the project and, while the terms of the grant award provide for full repayment of the grant in certain circumstances, the Company does not consider that any repayment is likely.

Hedging arrangements

The Company’s subsidiary in the United Kingdom (“UK”) has entered into six contracts to sell $500 in each calendar month from October 2017 through March 2018 at £1:$1.2655 and three contracts to sell $500 and purchase pounds sterling at £1:$1.2990 in each calendar month from April 2018 through June 2018 as hedges of its U.S. dollar denominated revenues.

The fair value of pension plan assets has been determined as the surrender value of the portfolio of active insured employees held within the Swiss Life collective investment fund. See Note 9, “Defined Benefit Pension Plans”.

(2)

The fair value of short-term investments has been determined based on the quoted value of the units held in the money market fund at the balance sheet date.  See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Short-term Investments”.

(3)

The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts has been determined by calculating the present value of future cash flows, estimated using market-based observable inputs including forward and spot exchange rates and interest rate curves obtained from third party market price quotations.
