The Company’s investments in money market funds are measured at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

The Company’s warrant liability as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 includes public and private warrants that were originally issued by 890, but which were assumed by the Company as part of the closing of the Business Combination (the “Public Warrants” and “Private Warrants,” respectively), which are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. The carrying amount is subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date. With each remeasurement, the carrying

amount is adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The Public Warrants are publicly traded under the symbol “BZFDW”, and the fair value of the Public Warrants at a specific date is determined by the closing price of the Public Warrants as of that date. As such, the Public Warrants are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The closing price of the Public Warrants was $0.06 and $0.04 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Level 3 instruments consisted of the Company’s derivative liability related to the Notes. Fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 are sensitive to changes in the assumptions or methodologies used to determine fair value, and such changes could result in a significant increase or decrease in the fair value. To measure the fair value of the derivative liability, the Company compared the calculated value of the Notes with the indicated value of the host instrument, defined as the straight-debt component of the Notes. The difference between the value of the straight-debt host instrument and the fair value of the Notes resulted in the value of the derivative liability. The value of the straight-debt host instrument was estimated based on a binomial lattice model, excluding the conversion option and the make-whole payment upon conversion.

The following table provides quantitative information regarding the significant unobservable inputs used by the Company related to the derivative liability:


	June 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Term (in years)	3.4		3.9
Risk-free rate	4.41	%	4.11	%
Volatility	90.0	%	76.6	%

The following table represents the activity of the Level 3 instruments:


	Derivative Liability
Balance as of December 31, 2022	$	180
Change in fair value of derivative liability	(120)
Balance as of June 30, 2023	$	60

There were no transfers between fair value measurement levels during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Equity Investment

For equity investments in entities that the Company does not exercise significant influence over, if the fair value of the investment is not readily determinable, the investment is accounted for at cost, and adjusted for subsequent observable price changes. If the fair value of the investment is readily determinable, the investment is accounted for at fair value. The Company reviews equity investments without readily determinable fair values at each period end to determine whether they have been impaired.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had an investment in equity securities of a privately-held company without a readily determinable fair value. During the second quarter of 2023, the aforementioned private company underwent a recapitalization, and the Company received approximately 6,000 shares of common stock in a non-monetary transaction, valued at $nil. Prior to the recapitalization, the carrying value of the investment was $3.6 million, so the difference between the carrying value and fair value was recorded as loss on investment within Other expense, net within our condensed consolidated statement of operations. The total carrying value of the investment, included in Prepaid and other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, was $nil and $3.6 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
