NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company follows the guidance in ASC 820 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 fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

 

 

The derivative instruments were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value recorded in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

At issuance, the Warrant Liability for Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were valued as of June 26, 2019 using a Monte Carlo simulation and Black Scholes model, respectively, which are considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurements. Subsequent to the Public Warrants detachment from the Units, the Public Warrants are valued based on quoted market price, under ticker CCX WS, which is a Level 1 fair value.

 

The Monte Carlo simulation’s primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Warrants is the probability of consummation of the Business Combination. The probability assigned to the consummation of the Business Combination was 80% which was estimated based on the observed success rates of business combinations for special purpose acquisition companies. The expected volatility as of the Initial Public Offering date was derived from observable public warrant pricing on comparable ‘blank-check’ companies without an identified target.

 

As of issuance and March 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of Warrant Liability–Private Placement Warrants were determined using a Black-Scholes valuation and based on the following significant inputs:

 

 

At inception, the Prosus Agreement Liability consisted of two components: a commitment for the First Step Investment and an option for the Second Step Investment. Subsequent to Prosus exercising its Second Step Investment option, the Prosus Agreement Liability represented a commitment. The commitment and option were valued using forward contract valuation methodology and a Black Scholes model, respectively. Both valuation methodologies were considered to be Level 3 fair value measurements. As of inception and March 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of Prosus Agreement Liability was determined based on the following significant inputs:

 

 

The Conversion option liability was valued using a Black Scholes model, which was considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. At inception and March 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of Conversion option liability was determined based on the following significant inputs:

 

 

*The underlying warrant value equals the calculated fair value of the private placement warrants as of each date presented and determined based on the following significant inputs:

 

 

The following table presents the changes in the fair value of warrant liabilities:

 

 

There were no transfers in or out of Level 3 from other levels in the fair value hierarchy.

The Monte Carlo simulation's primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Warrants is the probability of consummation of the Business Combination. The probability assigned to the consummation of the Business Combination was 80% which was estimated based on the observed success rates of business combinations for special purpose acquisition companies. The expected volatility as of the Initial Public Offering date was derived from observable public warrant pricing on comparable 'blank-check' companies without an identified target. The subsequent measurements of the Public Warrants after the detachment of the Public Warrants from the Units is classified as Level 1 due to the use of an observable market quote in an active market under the ticker CVII.WS.
