7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company follows the authoritative guidance for fair value measurements relating to financial and non-financial assets and liabilities, including presentation of required disclosures herein. This guidance establishes a fair value framework requiring the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets and liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:
 
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
 
Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).
 
Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company marks-to-market its derivatives at each reporting date, or more frequently as deemed necessary, with the changes in fair value recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. See Note 8: Derivatives for further information.

Embedded Derivative within the 2024 Debt Repayment
The embedded derivative relating to the 2024 Debt Repayment is valued using a discounted cash flow model. The most significant observable input used in the fair value measurement was the discount yield, which was 7.95% and 7.58%, at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. As the discount yield used in the valuation process increases, the fair value of the embedded derivative decreases.

The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement included estimated timing of completing certain project milestones associated with the interest fee reduction mechanism. As the probability of reaching the relevant milestones increases, the fair value of the embedded derivative would also increase.

Rollforward of Recurring Level 3 Assets and Liabilities

The following table presents a rollforward for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) (in thousands):

Fair Value of Debt Instruments and Other Financing Arrangements

The Company believes it is not practicable to determine the fair value of its debt agreements on a recurring basis without incurring significant additional costs. Unlike typical long-term debt, certain terms for these instruments cannot be readily compared to other debt instruments and their valuation generally involve a variety of complex factors, including due diligence by the debt holders.
