Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis As a result of the 2023 transaction discussed in Note 3 – Transactions with Tigress, the Company recognized an impairment charge for its investment in Tigress of approximately $185,000 during the year ended December 31, 2023, which is included in “Impairment of investments” in the consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the Company’s investment in Tigress was determined using observed current market prices of Tigress’ membership interests that were below the Company’s carrying value of its equity investment in Tigress. Following the transaction, the Company had no remaining interest in Tigress as of December 31, 2024. Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Carried at Fair Value Financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value either due to their short-term nature, or in the case of long-term assets or liabilities, management has determined the difference in the carrying value and fair value is immaterial. The tables below represents financial instruments in which the ending balances as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 are not carried at fair value in the statements of financial condition:
