(3)Certain trading securities are measured based on inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable.
(4)Derivative assets and liabilities include (i) interest rate swap agreements, and (ii) cross-currency swap agreements to hedge the variability of exchange rate impacts between the United States dollar and certain of our foreign functional currencies, including the Euro and the Canadian dollar. Our derivative financial instruments are measured using industry standard valuation models using market-based observable inputs, including interest rate curves, forward and spot prices for currencies and implied volatilities. See Note 5 for additional information on our derivative financial instruments.
(5)The balance as of December 31, 2025 primarily relates to the fair value of the deferred purchase obligation associated with the Regency Transaction (as defined in Note 3). The balance as of December 31, 2024 primarily relates to the fair values of the deferred purchase obligations associated with the Regency Transaction and the ITRenew Transaction (as defined below).

The level 3 valuations of the deferred purchase obligations were determined utilizing either a Monte-Carlo simulation model or a discounted cash flow model and take into account our forecasted projections as they relate to the underlying performance of the respective businesses. On January 25, 2022, in order to expand our ALM operations, we acquired an approximately 80% interest in ITRenew (the "ITRenew Transaction"). The Monte-Carlo simulation model applied in assessing the fair value of the deferred purchase obligation associated with the ITRenew Transaction incorporates assumptions as to expected gross profits over the achievement period, including adjustments for the volatility of timing and amount of the associated revenue and costs, as well as discount rates that account for the risk of the arrangement and overall market risks. The discounted cash flow model applied in assessing the fair value of the deferred purchase obligation associated with the Regency Transaction incorporates assumptions as to expected revenue over the achievement period, including adjustments for volatility and timing, as well as discount rates that account for the risk of the arrangement and overall market risks. Any material change to these assumptions may result in a significantly higher or lower fair value of the related deferred purchase obligation.
