Fair Value Measurements
21. Fair Value Measurements
Accounting standards define fair value, outline a framework for measuring fair value, and detail the required disclosures about fair value measurements. Under these standards, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market. Standards establish a hierarchy in determining the fair market value of an asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy has three levels of inputs, both observable and unobservable. Standards require the utilization of the highest possible level of input to determine fair value.
Level 1 – inputs include quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – inputs are market data, other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in an inactive market, and other observable information that can be corroborated by market data.
Level 3 – inputs are unobservable and corroborated by little or no market data.
The carrying value and fair value, by fair value hierarchy, of the Company’s financial instruments at June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025 are as follows (in thousands):

Notes Receivable
On October 31, 2025, the Company received a $5.0 million note receivable from A.E. Innovation, LLC as partial consideration for the sale of our subsidiary, Agri-Energy, LLC. The note bears interest at the Federal Funds Rate and matures on October 31, 2030. The note requires annual principal and interest payments on October 31 of each year
beginning October 31, 2026. The Company used a market approach to adjust the value of the note to fair value and recorded a discount on the note of $1.6 million. Factors considered by the Company in determining fair value were (i) the credit standing of the issuer, (ii) the secured nature of the note and, (iii) the prevailing rates for similar instruments based on the issuer’s credit. In addition, on February 26, 2026, the Company received a $250 thousand note receivable from Future Energy Capital Limited. The note accrues interest at 12% per annum and matures one year from the date of issuance, on February 26, 2027. The carrying value and the fair value of the notes receivable as of June 30, 2026 are as follows (in thousands):
