The Company utilized an independent third party to model the valuation of the conversion event liability using a probability weighted calculation valuing the convertible promissory note with and without the conversion event feature. Included in the model are assumptions related to the Company’s stock price, discount rate, probability of closing on its proposed Business Combination, expected time until closing of its proposed Business Combination, and a market adjustment for the implied probability of closing on its proposed Business Combination.

The Company estimates the discount rate based on the term matched yield. The probability of closing on a proposed Business Combination is based on an analysis of peer companies completing a business combination compared to liquidating. The years to expiration is based on the expected time until closing on its proposed Business Combination. And the model has a market adjustment for implied probability of acquisition based on an analysis of peer companies’ closing stock price, rights coverage and share rights price.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s Public Warrants were traded on a market exchange. At December 31, 2024, there was insufficient trading activity to utilize market prices to determine the fair value of the Public Warrants. The Company utilized an independent third party to value the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants using a binomial options pricing model, which involves Level 3 inputs.

Inherent in a binomial options pricing model are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield and probability of consummating a Business Combination. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the Public and Private Placement Warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates will remain at zero.

The Public and Private Placement Warrants were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2025. 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 statements of operations. Upon closing of the Company’s Business Combination, the Company’s Public Warrants were reclassified from liabilities to stockholders’ equity.

The following table provides significant inputs to the independent third party’s pricing model for the fair value of the Public Warrants at December 31, 2025 and the Private Placement Warrants at December 31, 2025 and 2024:
