Fair Value Measurements |
Note 8 — Fair Value Measurements The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
The following table presents information about the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2021 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:
The Warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on the balance sheet. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis. The Company established the initial fair value of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants on August 13, 2021, the date of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The Warrants were classified as Level 3 at the initial measurement date. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company used the quoted price on the NYSE to establish the fair value of the Public Warrants and the quoted price on the NYSE for similar assets (the Public Warrants) to establish the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants. For subsequent remeasurement, the Public Warrants are classified as Level 1 due to the use of observable inputs and the Private Placement Warrants are classified as Level 2 due to the use of observable inputs for similar assets. The key inputs into the Monte Carlo simulation model were as follows:
The following table presents the changes in the fair value of Level 3 Warrant Liabilities for the period from March 9, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2021:
Transfers to/from Levels 1, 2 and 3 are recognized at the end of the reporting period in which a change in valuation technique or methodology occurs. During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Public Warrants were actively trading on the NYSE. As such, the Public Warrants were transferred from Level 3 to Level 1 to recognize changes in fair value based on quoted prices in the active market. As the terms of the Private Placement Warrants are virtually identical to the Public Warrants, the Private Placement Warrants were transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 to recognize changes in fair value based on quoted prices of similar or identical assets in the active market. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the market price of the Public Warrants on the NYSE was $0.31 and $0.57 per warrant, respectively. The carrying value, excluding gross unrealized holding loss, and fair value of held to maturity securities on March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are as follows:
