Recurring Fair Value Measurements [Abstract]

Note 7 - Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Under the guidance in ASC 815-40 the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity classification. As such, these financial instruments must be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. This valuation is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each re-measurement, these financial instruments valuations will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations.

The Company’s warrant liability for the Private Placement Warrants is based on valuation models utilizing inputs from observable and unobservable markets with less volume and transaction frequency than active markets. The inputs used to determine the fair value of the Private Warrant liability, is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s Public Warrants are trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) and the Company’s warrant liability was based on unadjusted quoted prices in an active market (NASDAQ) for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. The fair value of the Public Warrant liability is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Substantially all of the Company’s trust assets on the balance sheet consist of U. S. Money Market funds which are classified as cash equivalents. Fair values of these investments are determined by Level 1 inputs utilizing quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value.

Measurement

The Private Warrants were valued using a binomial lattice model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement.

The key inputs into the binomial lattice model were as follows at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Input	March 31, 2023			December 31, 2022
Risk-free interest rate		3.55	%		3.95	%
Expected term to initial Business Combination (years)		0.59			0.25
Expected volatility		de minimis			de minimis
Common stock price	$	10.40		$	10.18
Dividend yield		0.0	%		0.0	%

The following table provides a reconciliation of changes in fair value of the beginning and ending balances for the Company’s warrants classified as Level 3 for the period ended March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Fair Value at December 31, 2022 – private warrants	$	560,000
Change in fair value		-
Fair Value at March 31, 2023 – private warrants	$	560,000
