FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

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:

Level 1:

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:

Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $101,293,086 and $139,410,739, respectively, in money market funds which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury Securities. Through September 30, 2022, the Company did not withdraw any interest earned on the Trust Account.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Description		Level			September 30, 2022				December 31, 2021
Assets:
Investments held in Trust Account – U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund		1			$	101,293,086			$	139,410,739
Liabilities:
Warrant Liability – Private Placement Warrants		3			$	1,162,800			$	3,351,600
Conversion Option Liability (see Note 5)		3			$	—			$	6,892

The Private Placement Warrants were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities on our accompanying September 30, 2022 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Warrant Liability Measurement

The Company established the initial fair value for the private warrants on January 11, 2021, the date of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, using a Monte Carlo simulation and subsequently implemented the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model that was modified to capture the redemption features of the public warrants. The underlying assumptions in the Black-Scholes option pricing model include the underlying share price, risk-free interest rate, estimated volatility and the expected term. The primary unobservable inputs utilized in determining the fair value of the private warrants are the expected volatility of the Company’s ordinary shares and the Company’s ordinary share price. The expected volatility of the ordinary shares was determined based on implied volatilities of public warrants issued by selected guideline companies and was estimated to be 10% before the expected business combination and 20% after the expected business combination. The ordinary share price was determined based on an iterative procedure that matched the estimated value of the ordinary shares and fractional warrant price to equate to the observed price of the outstanding units. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the date of valuation equal to the remaining expected life of the private warrants. The dividend yield percentage is zero because the Company does not currently pay dividends, nor does it intend to do so during the expected term of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. Inputs are re-evaluated each quarterly reporting period to estimate the fair market value of the private placement warrants as of the reporting period.

There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

The following table provides quantitative information regarding Level 3 fair value measurements:

		As of September 30, 2022				As of December 31, 2021
Stock price		$	10.33			$	10.04
Strike price		$	11.50			$	11.50
Term (in years)			5.00				5.28
Volatility			0.0	%			8.3	%
Risk-free rate			4.03	%			1.28	%
Dividend yield			0.0	%			0.0	%
Fair value of warrants		$	0.17			$	0.49

The following table presents the changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities:

Conversion Option Liability Measurement

The Company assessed the provisions of the Convertible Promissory Notes under ASC 470-20. The derivative component of the obligation is initially valued and classified as a derivative liability. The conversion option was valued using the compound option pricing model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement (See Note 6).

		As of September 30,				As of December 31,
		2022				2021
Underlying warrant value		$	0.0000			$	0.0103
Exercise price		$	0.75			$	0.75
Holding period			0.50				0.28
Risk-free rate			4.03	%			1.28	%
Volatility			5.3	%			8.3	%
Dividend yield			0.0	%			0.0	%
