Fair Value Measurements

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2023

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, accrued compensation and benefits, other accrued liabilities, and related party payables approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

Assets

The following table presents the placement in the fair value hierarchy of financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2023:


	Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		June 30, 2023
Assets
U.S. government debt securities	$	—	$	72,786	$	—	$	72,786
U.S. agency securities			986				986
Certificates of deposit	—		5,243		—		5,243
Total	$	—	$	79,015	$	—	$	79,015

The following table presents the placement in the fair value hierarchy of financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022:


	Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		December 31, 2022
Assets
U.S. government debt securities	$	—	$	50,995	$	—	$	50,995
Certificates of deposit	—		97		—		97
Total	$	—	$	51,092	$	—	$	51,092

The method used to estimate the fair value of the Level 2 short-term and long-term debt investments in the tables above is based on professional pricing sources for identical or comparable instruments, rather than direct observations of quoted prices in active markets.

Liabilities

The calculated fair value of the Convertible Notes (Note 9) was approximately $43,000 as of December 31, 2022, and was based on the recent third-party trades of the instrument as of the balance sheet date. The fair value of the Convertible Notes is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy as there is not an active market for the Convertible Notes, however, third-party trades of the instrument are considered observable inputs. The Convertible Notes are reflected on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at amortized cost, which was $43,219 as of December 31, 2022.

See Note 8 for discussion of non-recurring fair value estimates used in calculating an impairment charge recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
