The convertible notes were measured at fair value using the Binomial Option Pricing Model. The Liability-settled share-based payment to non-employee were measured at fair value using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

 

As of December 31, 2024, the assumptions were as follow:

 

   Convertible Senior
Note
   Convertible Junior
Note
   Liability-settled share-based
payment to
non-employee
 
Expected volatility   82.00%   22.00%   93.00%
Risk-free interest rate (per annum)   4.25%   4.27%   5.53%
Expected dividend yield   0.00%   0.00%   0.00%
Fair value of the underlying ordinary share  US$3.55   US$  3.55   US$     3.55 
Bond yield   10.52%   10.33%    N/A 

 

As of December 31, 2023, the assumptions were as follow:

 

   Convertible Senior
Note
   Liability-settled
share-based
payment to
non-employee
   Deferred contingent
consideration
 
Expected volatility   22.00%   64.00%   22.00%
Risk-free interest rate (per annum)   4.00%   5.23%   4.20%
Expected dividend yield   0.00%   0.00%   0.00%
Fair value of the underlying ordinary share  US$1.75   US$             1.75    US$   1.75 
Bond yield   10.60%   N/A    N/A 
Discount rate   N/A    N/A    23.00%
Annual per store revenue growth rate   N/A    N/A    2.00%

 

The fair value of the Convertible notes and Liability-settled share-based payment to non-employee as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 were estimated by management with the assistance of an independent valuation firm.

 

The expected volatility was estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company or comparable peer public companies with a time horizon close to the expected term of the Convertible Senior Note.

 

The expected volatility was estimated based on the historical volatility of comparable peer public companies with a time horizon close to the expected term of the Convertible Junior Note.

 

The expected volatility was estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company with a time horizon close to the expected term of the liability-settled share-based payment to non-employee.

The risk-free interest rate was estimated based on the yield to maturity of U.S. treasury bonds denominated in US$ for a term consistent with the expected term of the Notes in effect at the valuation date of Convertible Senior Note, Convertible Junior Note, and liability-settled share-based payment to non-employee. The expected dividend yield is zero as the Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its shares and the Company does not intend to pay dividend before the Company becomes profitable. The bond yield was based on the market yield of comparable bonds with similar credit rating. The fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares was obtained from the listed trading price of THIL.

 

The inputs used in the analysis for December 31, 2024 and 2023 were classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy due to the lack of observable market data and activity.

 

As of June 28, 2024, the assumptions were as follow:

 

   Convertible
Junior Note
   Deferred contingent
consideration
 
Expected volatility   22.00%   21.00%
Risk-free interest rate (per annum)   4.52%   3.10%
Expected dividend yield   0.00%   0.00%
Fair value of the underlying ordinary share  US$3.75   US$   3.75 
Bond yield   10.80%   N/A 
Discount rate   N/A    21.00%

 

The expected volatility was estimated based on the historical volatility of comparable peer public companies with a time horizon close to the expected term of the Convertible Junior Notes and Deferred contingent consideration.

 

The risk-free interest rate was estimated based on the yield to maturity of U.S. treasury bonds denominated in US$ for a term consistent with the expected term of the Notes in effect at the valuation date of Convertible Junior Notes and Deferred contingent consideration.

 

The expected dividend yield is zero as the Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its shares and the Company does not intend to pay dividend before the Company becomes profitable.

 

The bond yield was based on the market yield of comparable bonds with similar credit rating. The fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares was obtained from the listed trading price of the Company.

 

The cashflow forecast of Deferred contingent consideration is based on management plan of Popeyes restaurants to be opened during the forecast period and expected average revenue per store, which consider the store opening milestones stipulated in the Popeyes master development agreement and historical experience of per store revenue with comparable store size and type of food menu.

 

The inputs used in the analysis for June 28, 2024 were classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy due to the lack of observable market data and activity.

 

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company measures its property and equipment at fair value on a nonrecurring basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may no longer be recoverable.

 

Long-lived assets within asset groups were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of the end of each quarter during 2024 and 2023 due to impairment recognized on those assets at that date (see Note 9). Fair value of the asset groups as of December 31, 2024 were estimated by RMB10,095,796 using quoted selling price for identical assets of the kitchen equipment within asset group under the market approach classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
