As of December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any outstanding marketable securities or warrant liability.

The fair value of the private placement warrant liabilities is based on significant unobservable inputs, which represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. In determining the fair value of the warrant liabilities, the Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value using unobservable inputs including the expected term, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, and dividend yield.

The following table presents a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments:


	December 31, 2021
	Private Placement Warrant Liability

Private placement warrant liability acquired as part of the merger		3,014
Change in the fair value included in other income (expense), net		(1,954	)
Fair value as of December 31, 2021	$	1,060

The key inputs into the Black-Scholes option pricing model for the private warrants were as follows for the relevant periods:


	December 31, 2021			March 12, 2021
Expected term (years)		4.2			5.0
