7. Fair Value Measurements

The fair value measurements discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of and during the periods ended December 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024. The carrying amount of accounts payable approximated fair value as they are short term in nature.

Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The Company follows the guidance in FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. The estimated fair value of the Public Warrants liabilities represent Level 1 measurements. The estimated fair value of the convertible notes bifurcated embedded derivative asset, GEM warrant liabilities, Yorkville convertible note, Agile term notes, 1800 Diagonal convertible notes, Private Placement Convertible Notes, Private Placement Warrants and Goodwill and Definite-lived intangible assets recognized as part of acquisitions, represent Level 3 measurements.

The following table presents information about the Company’s financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Bifurcated Embedded Derivative Assets - related party

The measurement of the fair value of the embedded put options relating to the related party CP BF Convertible Note issued on September 23, 2024 was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Key inputs into these models included the timing and probability of the identified scenarios, and for Black-Scholes option pricing models used for notes that included a valuation cap, equity values, risk-free rate and volatility.

Estimating fair values of embedded conversion features requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. Because the embedded conversion features are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, the Company’s consolidated statements of operations will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes.

The related party CP BF Convertible Note has an embedded redemption put feature upon a Prepayment and Default Interest triggering events that are unrelated to the creditworthiness of the Company are not clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument, were separated and bundled together as a derivative and assigned probabilities of being affected and initially measured at fair value in the amount of $12,000. The fair value of the bifurcated derivative asset was estimated utilizing the with and without method which uses the probability weighted difference between the scenarios with the derivative and the plain vanilla maturity scenario without a derivative

The following table summarizes the changes in the fair value of the bifurcated embedded derivative asset for the year ended December 31, 2025, relating to the Convertible Note to CP BF issued on September 23, 2024:

Agile Term Notes

The measurement of fair value of the Agile term notes ("Agile Notes") was determined using a discounted cash flow model to calculate the fair value. Key inputs for the discounted cash flow model include the contractual term of the note and a market participant interest rate.

 

The Agile Notes include contingent redemption (put) rights which trigger mandatory prepayment and a make-whole premium upon certain events including an event of default, and defaulted contingent interest upon an event of default. Due to the contingent redemption put feature and default interest embedded feature within the Agile Notes, the Company elected the fair value option for the Agile Notes at their respective dates of issuance pursuant to ASC 825 Financial Instruments (“ASC 825”).

 

Refer to Note 12 – Debt for a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Agile Notes.

 

1800 Diagonal Convertible Notes

The measurement of the fair value of each of the convertible promissory notes with 1800 Diagonal Lending was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Key inputs used for the model include the stock price, volatility, the contractual term of the note, risk-free interest rates and dividend yield.

 

Refer to Note 12 – Debt for a summary of the changes in the fair value of the 1800 Diagonal Convertible Notes.

 

3i, LP Private Placement Offering

 

The measurement of the fair value of the Private Placement Convertible Notes was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation. Key inputs into the simulation include the remaining term, the market interest rate, risk-free rate, equity volatility, and probability of default.

 

Refer to Note 12 – Debt for a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Private Placement Convertible Notes, and to Note 13 – Warrant Liabilities for a description of the warrants issued in connection with the Private Placement Offering.

 

Warrant Liability - Private Placement Warrants

The Private Placement Warrants were not considered indexed to the issuer’s stock pursuant to ASC 815, as the holder’s ability to receive in lieu of the Warrant, cash in an amount equal to the Black Scholes Value ("Black Scholes Value") in connection with a Change of Control, adjusts the settlement value based on items outside the Company’s control in violation of the fixed-for-fixed option pricing model. As such, the Company recorded the Warrants as liabilities initially measured at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in earnings each reporting period. Refer to Note 13 – Warrant Liabilities for further details.

The measurement of fair value was determined utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation considering all relevant assumptions current at the date of issuance, including share price, term, risk-free rate, exercise price and dividend yield.

About Fair Value Disclosures

Fair value disclosures classify all assets and liabilities measured at fair value into a three-level hierarchy: Level 1 (quoted market prices), Level 2 (observable inputs like yield curves), and Level 3 (unobservable inputs requiring management estimates). The proportion of Level 3 assets directly reflects how much of the balance sheet depends on internal models rather than market evidence.

Key signals: a growing Level 3 balance relative to total fair-value assets increases valuation uncertainty and earnings volatility risk. Watch for transfers between levels — assets moving from Level 2 to Level 3 often signal deteriorating market liquidity. Unrealized gains and losses on Level 3 positions flow through earnings or other comprehensive income, so large swings deserve scrutiny. For financial institutions, examine the sensitivity disclosures that show how Level 3 valuations change under alternative assumptions. Compare the fair value of debt against its carrying amount to gauge hidden leverage.
