Fair Value Measurements

3 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2017

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company’s cash, investments, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, notes payable and certain accrued liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. Generally accepted accounting principles on fair value measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities require that each asset and liability carried at fair value be classified into one of the following categories: Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities; Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data; or Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. The Company has not changed its valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the period.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2017, the Company purchased available-for-sale securities, U.S. Treasury bills and U.S. Agencies, which are recorded at fair market value. These securities are classified as “Investments” in the consolidated balance sheets. Unrealized gains or losses are recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in the consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2017, the fair market value and book value of the investments are $14.0 million. As of June 30, 2017, the fair market value and book value of the investments were $18.0 million. These assets are classified as Level 1 in accordance with fair value measurements described above.
