9. FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Mandatorily Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest

MRNCI recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets represents the fair value of the non-controlling interest in the Company’s strategic investment in Team Sledd. During April 2024, Team Sledd redeemed certain membership interests from its non-controlling interest, which increased the Company’s ownership interest to approximately 76% as of September 2024. The Company owned approximately 64% of Team Sledd as of September 2023. The Company has elected to present the MRNCI liability at fair value under ASC 825 as it believes this best represents the potential future liability and cash flows. As such, the MRNCI balance at both September 2024 and September 2023 represents the fair value of the remaining future membership interest redemptions and other amounts due to noncontrolling interest holders through April 2026. At both September 2024 and September 2023, the difference between the contractual amount due under the MRNCI and the fair value was approximately $0.7 million. The following table presents changes in the fair value of the MRNCI during each of fiscal years 2024 and 2023:


		For the Year Ended September 30,
		2024			2023
Fair value of MRNCI, beginning of period		$	9,490,831		$	11,158,555

Contingent Consideration

As described in Note 2, a portion of the consideration paid in the acquisition of Burklund was in the form of contingent consideration of up to $3.0 million in cash that could be payable in two installments on the one-year and two-year anniversaries of the acquisition date, respectively, based on certain sales thresholds. In accordance with ASC 805, the Company recorded the contingent consideration at fair value as of the acquisition date and re-measures the liability at each reporting period. The Company calculates the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration based on a discounted cash flow valuation technique using the best information available at the reporting date, and records changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The short-term and long-term portions of the contingent consideration are recorded in accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets. At each reporting date, the Company reviews certain inputs, including sales thresholds and an appropriate discount rate, based on management’s knowledge and assumptions of certain events. At September 2024, the difference between the estimated amount due under the contingent consideration arrangement and the fair value was approximately $0.2 million. The contingent consideration liability is classified as Level 3 because of the Company’s reliance on unobservable assumptions.

The following table presents changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration:


Fair value of contingent consideration at acquisition		$	1,578,444
Change in fair value			(124,992)
Fair value of contingent consideration as of September 2024		$	1,453,452
Less current portion at fair value			(710,270)
		$	743,182
