Note 18. Fair Value Measurements

The Public Warrants were classified as Level 1 financial instruments. The fair value of Public Warrants was measured based on the listed market price of such warrants.

The Private Placement Warrants were classified as Level 3 financial instruments. The Company estimated the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants using a Black Scholes Pricing Model. Inherent in a Black Scholes Pricing Model are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The Company estimated the volatility of its common stock warrants based on implied volatility from the Company’s traded warrants and from historical volatility of select peer company’s common stock that matched the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate was based on the US Treasury

zero-coupon

yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants was assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate was based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipated remaining at zero.

The change in the fair value of the derivative warrant liabilities is summarized as follows (in thousands):

Contingent consideration are classified as Level 3 financial instruments. The fair value of contingent consideration is determined based on significant unobservable inputs including discount rate, estimated revenue of the acquired business, and estimated probabilities of achieving specified technology development and operational milestones. Significant judgment is employed in determining the appropriateness of the inputs described above. Changes to the inputs could have a material impact on the company’s financial position and results of operations in any given period.

With respect to the contingent consideration obligation arising from the acquisition of Photospire Limited (“Spirable”), the Company estimates the fair value at each subsequent reporting period using a probability weighted discounted cash flow model for contingent milestone payments and Monte Carlo simulation for contingent revenue payments.
