| INVESTMENTS | INVESTMENTS The Company's investments at December 31, 2022 and 2021 were all classified as current and were comprised of the following (in thousands):
The Company did not have any noncurrent investments at December 31, 2022 or 2021.
Flowr Corp. (formerly Terrace Inc.)
In December 2021, Terrace Inc., a Canadian cannabis entity in which the Company had an ownership interest of 8.95% (“Terrace”), was acquired by Flowr Corp. (TSX.V: FLWR; OTC: FLWPF), a Toronto-headquartered cannabis company with operations in Canada, Europe, and Australia (“Flowr”). Under the terms of the transaction, each shareholder of Terrace received 0.4973 of a share in Flowr for each Terrace share held (the "Flowr Investment").
The investment in Flowr was carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded as a component of Other expense, net, in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company recorded losses of $0.3 million and $1.1 million in the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The loss recorded in the year ended December 31, 2022 is comprised of the loss on the change in the Flowr Investment for the year, plus the $61,000 write-off of the remaining fair value of the Flowr Investment in December 31, 2022 arising from Flowr's bankruptcy filing and delisting from the exchanges on which it traded. The loss recognized in the year ended December 31, 2021 represented the change in the fair value of the investment in Flowr for that year.
WM Technology Inc. (formerly MembersRSVP LLC)
In January 2021, the Company and MembersRSVP LLC, an entity that develops cannabis-specific software ("MRSVP), in which the Company owned a 23.0% membership interest, entered into an agreement under which the Company returned membership interests comprising 11.0% ownership in MRSVP in exchange for a release of the Company from any further obligation to make any incremental investments or payments to MRSVP and certain other non-monetary consideration.
In addition to the reduction of the Company's ownership interest to 12.0%, the Company relinquished its right to appoint a member to MSRVP's board of directors. As a result, the Company no longer had the ability to exercise significant influence over MRSVP, and accordingly, as of January 1, 2021, the Company discontinued accounting for this investment under the equity method.
In September 2021, MRSVP sold substantially all of its assets pursuant to an asset purchase agreement. In furtherance of the transaction, the Company received cash proceeds of $1.5 million, representing the Company’s pro rata share of the cash consideration received by MRSVP upon the closing of the transaction. The cash proceeds reduced the Company's MRSVP investment balance to zero and resulted in a gain of $0.3 million, which was reported as a component of Other expense, net, in the Company's consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021.
In February 2022, the Company received 121,698 shares of common stock of WM Technology Inc. (the "MAPS Shares"), a technology and software infrastructure provider to the cannabis industry, which represented the Company's pro rata share of the additional consideration received by MRSVP pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, which had a fair value of approximately $953,000 at the time of receipt. The Company recognized a loss of $0.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, which is included as a component of Other (expense) income, net, in the consolidated statement of operations. This amount represents the decrease in the fair value of the MAPS Shares for the period from the Company's receipt of such shares in February 22, 2022 through December 31, 2022.
