Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]

The Company’s investment in Insignia Systems, Inc. (“Insignia”) is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The Company has elected a three-month lag upon adoption of the equity method. As of December 31, 2021, the number of Insignia's shares owned by the Company was 0.5 million, representing approximately 28% of the outstanding shares. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, due to loss attributions and impairments taken in prior fiscal years, the Company's net investment basis in Insignia was reduced to $0. As such, the Company did not record any additional share of Insignia's net loss as of December 31, 2021. On August 23, 2021, Insignia restated its 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and its 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. The Company evaluated these restatements and determined that they would not result in any additional impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company's 18.98% investment in Cadillac Casting, Inc. ("CCI") is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Due to the differing fiscal year-ends, the Company has elected a three-month lag to record the CCI investment at cost, with a basis difference of $0.3 million. The Company recorded a loss of $0.1 million and $0.6 million as its share of CCI's net loss for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2021, along with a basis difference adjustment of $13.0 thousand and $38.0 thousand, respectively. Additionally, due to the adverse financial results as reported in CCI's financial statements for the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021, in addition to consideration of industry reports and other qualitative factors, the Company determined that it has suffered from an other-than-temporary impairment in its investment in CCI. As such, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $0.3 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2021. After the impairment, the Company's net investment basis in CCI is $2.8 million as of December 31, 2021.
