NOTE 9 — WARRANT LIABILITY
As of January 31, 2023 and April 30, 2022, the Company’s warrants liability was valued at $1,675,000 and $2,440,000, respectively. Under the guidance in ASC 815-40, certain warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment. As such, these warrants are recorded at fair value as of each reporting date with the change in fair value reported within other income in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations as “Change in fair value of warrant liability” until the warrants are exercised, expired or other facts and circumstances lead the warrant liability to be reclassified to stockholders’ equity. The Company utilized a Monte Carlo Simulation model to estimate the fair value of the March 2022 warrants, which incorporates significant inputs that are not observable in the market, and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The unobservable inputs utilized for measuring the fair value of the contingent consideration reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the contingent consideration. The Company determined the fair value by using the following key inputs to the Monte Carlo Simulation Model:
