Financial Assets and Liabilities | Financial Assets and Liabilities Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value The fair value of equities, options, on-the-run U.S. government obligations and exchange traded notes is estimated using recently executed transactions and market price quotations in active markets and are categorized as Level 1 with the exception of inactively traded equities and certain other financial instruments, which are categorized as Level 2. The Company’s corporate bonds, derivative contracts and other U.S. and non-U.S. government obligations have been categorized as Level 2. Fair value of the Company’s derivative contracts is based on the indicative prices obtained from a number of banks and broker-dealers, as well as management’s own analyses. The indicative prices have been independently validated through the Company’s risk management systems, which are designed to check prices with information independently obtained from exchanges and venues where such financial instruments are listed or to compare prices of similar instruments with similar maturities for listed financial futures in foreign exchange. The Company prices certain financial instruments held for trading at fair value based on theoretical prices, which can differ from quoted market prices. The theoretical prices reflect price adjustments primarily caused by the fact that the Company continuously prices its financial instruments based on all available information. This information includes prices for identical and near-identical positions, as well as the prices for securities underlying the Company’s positions, on other exchanges that are open after the exchange on which the financial instruments is traded closes. The Company validates that all price adjustments can be substantiated with market inputs and checks the theoretical prices independently. Consequently, such financial instruments are classified as Level 2.

(“JNX”), formerly known as SBI Japannext Co., Ltd., a proprietary trading system based in Tokyo. In connection with the JNX Investment, the Company issued the SBI Bonds (as described in Note 8 "Borrowings") and used the proceeds to partially finance the transaction. The JNX Investment is included within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the JNX Investment was determined using a weighted average of valuations using 1) the discounted cash flow method, an income approach; 2) a market approach based on average enterprise value/EBITDA ratios of comparable companies; and to a lesser extent 3) a transaction approach based on transaction values of comparable companies. The fair value measurement is highly sensitive to significant changes in the unobservable inputs, and significant increases (decreases) in discount rate or decreases (increases) in enterprise value/EBITDA multiples would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. The table below presents information on the valuation techniques, significant unobservable inputs and their ranges for the JNX Investment: September 30, 2023 (in thousands) Fair Value Valuation Technique Significant Unobservable Input Range Weighted Average Equity investment $ 72,399 Discounted cash flow Estimated revenue growth 3.7% - 6.4% 4.1 % Discount rate 16.3% - 16.3% 16.3 % Market Future enterprise value/ EBIDTA ratio 8.6x - 17.6x 11.8x December 31, 2022 (in thousands) Fair Value Valuation Technique Significant Unobservable Input Range Weighted Average Equity investment $ 76,613 Discounted cash flow Estimated revenue growth (5.7)% - 5.0% 3.1 % Discount rate 15.5% - 15.5% 15.5 % Market Future enterprise value/ EBIDTA ratio (1.2)x - 18.1x 12.2x Changes in the fair value of the JNX Investment are included within Other, net The following presents the changes in the Company's Level 3 financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis: Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 (in thousands) Balance at June 30, 2023 Purchases Total Realized and Unrealized Gains / (Losses) (1) Net Transfers into (out of) Level 3 Settlement Balance at September 30, 2023 Change in Net Unrealized Gains / (Losses) on Investments still held at September 30, 2023 Assets Other assets: Equity investment $ 71,059 $ — $ 1,340 $ — $ — $ 72,399 $ 1,340 Total $ 71,059 $ — $ 1,340 $ — $ — $ 72,399 $ 1,340 (1) Total realized and unrealized gains/(losses) includes gains and losses due to fluctuations in currency rates as well as gains and losses recognized on changes in the fair value of the JNX Investment.

Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value The table below presents the carrying value, fair value and fair value hierarchy category of certain financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The table below excludes non-financial assets and liabilities. The carrying value of financial instruments not measured at fair value categorized in the fair value hierarchy as Level 1 and Level 2 approximates fair value due to the relatively short-term nature of the underlying assets. The fair value of the Company’s long-term borrowings is based on quoted prices from the market for similar instruments, and is categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
