Fair value

Valuation technique

Unobservable Input (1)

Range (weighted average)

Warrant

513

Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo

Probability of vesting

0.0% - 95.0% (81.2%)

Market multiples

Revenue multiple — GPC method

0.6x — 1.8x

Revenue multiple — GMAC method

1.0x — 3.2x

(1) The primary unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of our equity investment in Gmarket under the fair value option, when using the Guideline Public Company (GPC) method and the Guideline Merged and Acquired Company (GMAC) method under the market multiple approach, are the respective revenue multiples. Significant increases (decreases) in the revenue multiples in isolation would result in significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. The market multiples are derived from respective groups of guideline public companies and guideline merged and acquired companies.
