INVESTMENTS | INVESTMENTS Investments, Non-current, at Fair Value During the third quarter of 2021, the Company invested $3.0 million through a subordinated convertible promissory note (the "Note") of $3.0 million with a values-based career destination company that allows the next generation workforce to search for jobs at companies whose people, perks and values align with their unique professional needs. The Note earned interest at 6.00% and matured at the earlier of a Qualified Financing, as described in the Note, or settled in cash on or after August 20, 2022, at the option of the Company. Upon a Qualified Financing, the Company would convert its investment into shares of preferred stock at 80% of the per share value in the Qualified Financing. Prior to the Qualified Financing, the investment was recorded at $3.0 million and as a trading security at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. On September 20, 2022, a Qualified Financing occurred and the Note was converted into preferred shares representing 4.9% of the outstanding equity in the underlying business, on a fully-diluted basis. The Company's preferred shares are substantially similar to shares purchased by a third party investor in the Qualified Financing that resulted in such investor becoming the majority owner of the business, holding 50.5% of the outstanding equity in the business, on a fully-diluted basis. Therefore, the Company's shares in the business were recorded at fair value based on the price per share realized in the Qualified Financing. Subsequent to the Qualified Financing, the Company valued the investment at $0.7 million, and it is recorded as an investment in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2023. The Company recognized an impairment loss during the three months ended September 30, 2022 of $2.3 million. No impairment was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. During the first quarter of 2023, the majority investor purchased additional shares of the business as was contemplated in, and at the same price as, in the Qualified Financing. As a result, the Company's ownership, on a fully-diluted basis, on March 31, 2023 was reduced to 4.1%. The Company has elected the measurement alternative in accordance with FASB ASC 321, Investments – Equity Securities. As of March 31, 2023, subsequent to the Qualified Financing, it was not practicable to estimate the fair value of its interest because there were no observable transactions for the investment. Accordingly, the investment was carried at the value realized in the Qualified Financing as of March 31, 2023, as described above.

Accordingly, the Company recorded amortization of less than $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The investment is recorded at zero as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. |
