Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, payment-dependent notes receivable, payment-dependent notes payable, and warrant liabilities. Cash equivalents, payment-dependent notes receivable, payment-dependent notes payable, and warrant liabilities are stated at fair value on a recurring basis. Restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities are stated at their carrying value, which approximates fair value due to the short time these financial instruments are held to the expected receipt or payment date. The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

The Company classifies money market funds and certain payment-dependent notes receivable and payment-dependent notes payable within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because the Company values these investments using quoted market prices. Payment-Dependent Notes Receivable and Payment-Dependent Notes Payable Classified as Level 3 The Company classifies certain payment-dependent notes receivable and payment-dependent notes payable within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy if the underlying securities are equity of private companies whose regular financial and nonfinancial information is generally not available other than when it is publicly disclosed, or significant unobservable inputs are used to estimate fair value. The Company estimates fair values of payment-dependent notes receivable and payment-dependent notes payable utilizing completed transactions made through the Company’s platform for the relevant private securities as well as mutual fund valuations of private companies as relevant data inputs . Legacy Forge Warrant Liabilities The Company's Legacy Forge warrant liabilities consist of warrants to purchase Series B-1 preferred stock or subsequent round stock (the "Series B-1 Preferred Stock Warrants," see Note 12) and Junior Preferred Stock Warrants (as defined below, see Note 12). The Company used a hybrid method that incorporates the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and an adjusted backsolve model to estimate the fair value of the Legacy Forge warrant liabilities, with the exception of the valuation of Junior Preferred Stock Warrants as of December 31, 2022, for which the Company used a binomial lattice model in a risk-neutral framework. Subsequent to the Merger, the Series B-1 Preferred Stock Warrants and Junior Preferred Stock Warrants were converted to common stock warrants. As a result, the Series B-1 Preferred Stock Warrants were remeasured at fair value prior to the conversion resulting in a change in fair value of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, which was recognized as a component of change in fair value of warrant liabilities within the consolidated statements of operations, and subsequently settled in additional paid-in capital as a result of the conversion to equity-classified common stock warrants. The Junior Preferred Stock Warrants were remeasured at fair value prior to the conversion to common stock warrants, which did not result in a change in fair value as of the conversion date. These warrants remained liability-classified after the conversion into the common stock warrants as the Company's obligation with respect to these warrants is capped at a fixed monetary amount and may be settled in a variable number of common shares. The Junior Preferred Stock Warrants were remeasured at fair value as of December 31, 2022 which resulted in a $4.0 million gain for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company estimated the fair value of the Legacy Forge warrant liabilities, as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, using the following key assumptions:
| As of December 31,
| 2022 |  | 2021
Fair value of underlying securities | $ | 1.73 |  | $ | 30.80
Expected term (years) | 2.9 |  | 3.4 - 8.8
Expected volatility | 46.1% |  | 40.4% - 44.3%
Risk-free interest rate | 4.2% |  | 1.0% - 1.5%
Expected dividend yield | —% |  | —%
Fair value per warrant | $ | 0.15 |  | $5.00 - $22.00
Private Placement Warrants The Company classifies the Private Placement Warrants within Level 3, because significant unobservable inputs are used to estimate fair value. To estimate the fair value of Private Placement Warrants, the Company used a binomial lattice model in a risk-neutral framework. The significant assumptions used in the analysis were the trading price of the Company’s Common Stock as of December 31, 2022 of $1.73 per share, the risk-free rate of 4.1%, the volatility of 44.6%, and the Company’s dividend yield of 0.0%. Transfers Into and Out of Level 3 The Company transfers financial instruments out of Level 3 on the date when underlying input parameters are readily observable from existing market quotes. For Payment-dependent notes payable and receivable, transfers from Level 3 to Level 1 generally relate to a company going public and listing on a national securities exchange. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the transfer of Private Placement Warrants from Level 2 to Level 3 was due to the redemption and exercises of the Public Warrants (Note 12) which resulted in the lack of an identical instrument with a quoted price. During the year ended December 31, 2021, there were transfers of securities segregated for customers from Level 3 to Level 1, as one private company was acquired by a public company and became publicly-traded under the acquirer, and the Company was able to obtain independent market-quoted prices for the acquirer company. The following tables provide reconciliation for all financial assets measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):
