Fair value valuation techniques
The Company uses the following valuation techniques to measure fair value for its financial assets and financial liabilities:
Level 1
 
Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
 
Level 2
 
Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
 
 
Level 3
 
Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.
