Fair Value Measurements

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2023

Note 11. Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis which are discussed below. The credit facility's estimated fair value was $289.8 million and $289.2 million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively using Level 2 inputs.

Earnouts associated with the acquisitions of Bonaccord and Hark

Included in total consideration of the acquisition of Bonaccord is an earnout payment not to exceed $20 million. The amount ultimately owed to the sellers is based on achieving specific fundraising targets and any amounts paid to the sellers will be paid by October 2027, at which point the earnout expires. Payments are made after each close. As of December 31, 2023, $13.1 million has been paid in total contingent consideration associated with the earnout, of which $5.8 million was paid in the year ended December 31, 2023. It is highly probable that the remainder of the earnout will be achieved. Total remeasurement expense recognized for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 was $0.5 million, $0.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively. This is included in contingent consideration expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company's contingent consideration is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement as the significant inputs are unobservable and require significant judgment or estimation. The remainder of the earnout is highly probable to be achieved given the fundraising amount to date and projected fundraising should satisfy the targets. As of December 31, 2023, the estimated fair value of the remaining contingent consideration totaled $6.7 million. Following December 31, 2023, the Company has paid $0.2 million towards the remaining contingent consideration.

Included in the total consideration of the acquisition of Hark is an earnout not to exceed $5.4 million. Total remeasurement expense recognized for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 totaled $0.1 million, $1.5 million, and $1.7 million, respectively. This is included in contingent consideration expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The entirety of the Hark contingent consideration for $5.4 million was paid during the year ended December 31, 2023.

The following tables provide details regarding the classification of these liabilities within the fair value hierarchy as of the dates presented:


	As of December 31, 2023
	Level I		Level II		Level III		Total
Liabilities
Contingent consideration obligation	$	-	$	-	$	6,693	$	6,693

Contingent consideration obligation	$	-	$	-	$	17,337	$	17,337
Total liabilities	$	-	$	-	$	17,337	$	17,337

For the liabilities presented in the tables above, there were no changes in fair value hierarchy levels during the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The changes in the fair value of Level III financial instruments are set forth below:


Contingent Consideration Liability	For the Year Ended December 31,
	2023			2022
Balance, beginning of year:	$	17,337		$	22,963
Additions		-			-
Change in fair value		560			1,717
Settlements		(11,204	)		(7,343	)
Balance, end of period:	$	6,693		$	17,337

The fair value of the contingent consideration liability represents the fair value of future payments upon satisfaction of performance targets. The assumptions used in the analysis are inherently subjective; therefore, the ultimate amount of the contingent consideration liability primarily relate to the expected future payments of obligations with a discount rate applied. The contingent consideration liability is included in contingent consideration on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of the liability are included in contingent consideration expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
