Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy was established which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis:

The Company’s financial assets/liabilities required to be measured on a recurring basis were primarily its: (i) deferred compensation asset included in other assets; and (ii) deferred compensation liability included in other liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets.

Deferred compensation—The Company utilizes Level 1 inputs to value its deferred compensation assets and liabilities. The Company’s deferred compensation assets and liabilities are measured using publicly available indices, as per the plan documents.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis is as follows:

Fair Value Measurements

	December 31, 2024		December 31, 2023
	(amounts in thousands)
Financial Assets:
(Level 1)
Deferred compensation asset	$	2,889	$	3,298
Financial Liabilities:
(Level 1)
Deferred compensation liability	$	2,926	$	3,343

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis:

The Company's non-financial assets, such as goodwill, trade names, other intangible assets, right-of-use assets, and property and equipment, are measured at fair value when there is an indicator of impairment and are recorded at fair value only when an impairment charge is recognized.

The years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 included impairment charges to right-of-use assets along with related property and equipment in connection with leases that were vacated during those years. The year ended December 31, 2024 also included the write-off of goodwill and intangible assets associated with the impairment of the previous asset acquisition Selected. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, certain IT projects were written off, resulting in an impairment of the related IT assets. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, these assets were recorded at fair value using

Level 3 inputs. See Note 5 - Goodwill, Trade Names, and Other Intangible Assets and Note 9 - Leases for more information about these impairments.

Other Fair Value Disclosures:

Financial instruments not measured or recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses. The estimated fair value of accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their carrying amount due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Other financial instruments not measured or recorded at fair value include earnout liabilities related to the (i) Mint and (ii) HireUp acquisitions, as discussed below.

(i) Potential earnout payments related to the Mint acquisition are contingent upon meeting certain performance requirements based on 2022 through 2024 performance. On a quarterly basis, the Company performs an analysis using multiple forecasted scenarios to determine the fair value of the earnout liability. In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company performed the earnout calculation for the first measurement period, resulting in an earnout of $4.9 million, which was paid in the first quarter of 2024. During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company performed a calculation for the second measurement period, resulting in the achievement of a $4.4 million earnout, included in the current portion of earnout liability on the consolidated balance sheets. This remaining liability was paid in the first quarter of 2025. The carrying amount of the earnout liability approximates fair value. See Note 4 - Acquisitions.

(ii) Potential earnout payments related to the HireUp acquisition were contingent upon meeting certain performance requirements based on 2022 through 2024 performance. Quarterly throughout 2023 and in the first quarter of 2024, the Company performed analyses using multiple updated forecasted scenarios and determined that the earnout would only be partially achieved. As a result, the Company recognized a decrease in the fair value of the related liabilities in the second and third quarters of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024. The remaining liability of $1.7 million was paid in the first quarter of 2024. See Note 4 - Acquisitions.

Concentration of Credit Risk:

See discussion of credit losses and allowance for credit losses in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Overall, based on the large number of customers in differing geographic areas, primarily throughout the United States and its territories, the Company believes that the concentration of credit risk is limited.
