(1) Included in cash and cash equivalents on accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
The carrying amounts of cash, accounts and note receivables, net, other receivables, accounts payable, due to related parties, CVR excess closing cash payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.
During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were no transfers of fair value measurement between Level 1 and Level 2 and no transfers into or out of Level 3 for both financial assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had fully settled the CVR liability and collected all outstanding amounts related to CVR receivables.
Receivable from GCBP and CVR Derivative Liability
The receivable from GCBP and the corresponding CVR derivative liability relate to the asset purchase agreement with GCBP. The fair value of this receivable and derivative liability is based on significant unobservable inputs, which represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. These unobservable inputs include the probability of GCBP meeting its contractual payment obligations, the timing of cash flows, and the expected recovery rate of the receivable. The estimation process incorporates GCBP’s financial condition and market conditions that could impact its ability to fulfill obligations. Additionally, the selection of the discount rate (which was estimated at 5.05%) may fluctuate over time. The estimated fair value of the receivable from GCBP and CVR derivative liability was determined based on the anticipated amount and timing of projected cash flows to be received from GCBP pursuant to the GCBP asset purchase agreement discounted to their present values using an estimated discount rate of 5.05%. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company received a $5.0 million hold-back payment from GCBP and distributed, net of expenses, to the CVR Holders. The change in fair value of the receivable from GCBP and the corresponding CVR derivative liability was recorded in interest and other income, net on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.
Warrant Liability
In October 2023, Catalyst entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement for a private placement with GNI USA (the “Private Placement”). Upon closing of the Private Placement, the Company issued 811 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock and 811 Preferred Stock Warrants to purchase shares of Convertible Preferred Stock to GNI for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5.0 million. The Preferred Stock Warrants are immediately exercisable at an exercise price of $4,915.00 per share of Convertible Preferred Stock and expire on October 30, 2033. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise and conversion of the Preferred Stock Warrants is 540,666. The Company accounted for the Private Placement as a non-arm's length transaction. The Preferred Stock Warrants were initially recognized at fair value upon issuance and the remaining proceeds from the Private Placement were allocated to the Convertible Preferred Stock.
The Preferred Stock Warrants are freestanding financial instruments classified as a warrant liability on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of the Preferred Stock Warrants is subject to uncertainty due to unobservable inputs, including the expected volatility of the Company’s stock price, the likelihood of warrant exercise, and the estimated term of the warrants. Since there is limited market activity for the Preferred Stock Warrants, their fair value is determined using an option pricing model, which incorporates subjective inputs such as the Company’s stock price volatility, derived from historical and peer company data, as well as management’s expectations regarding future performance. As these assumptions evolve due to market conditions or company specific factors, the warrant liability may experience fluctuations. The Preferred Stock Warrants are revalued each reporting period with the change in fair value recorded as change in fair value of warrant liability in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.
The fair value of the warrant liability is estimated based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the following weighted-average assumptions:

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.
