Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Contingent Consideration Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Contingent Consideration
The fair value of an asset or liability represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between unrelated market participants.
The Company reports the fair value of assets and liabilities using a three level measurement hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Company has the ability to access these prices as of the measurement date. Level 1 assets include: cash held at banks; certificates of deposit;
money market funds; investment grade corporate debt securities; and U.S. government agency and municipal debt securities.
Level 2—Level 2 securities are valued using third-party pricing sources that apply relevant inputs and data in their models to estimate fair value. Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices, but that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates; yield curves); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or by other means (i.e., market corroborated inputs). Level 2 assets include: investment grade corporate debt securities; U.S. government agency and municipal debt securities; other fixed income securities; and SERP (Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan) assets. The fair value of the restricted marketable securities is recorded in Other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's own assumptions. These are based on the best information available, including the Company's own data.
There were no level 3 assets as of December 31, 2021, or December 31, 2020.

Financial Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value
Contingent Consideration
The Company's contingent consideration liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company classifies its contingent consideration liabilities as Level 3 fair value measurements based on the significant unobservable inputs used to estimate fair value. These reflect the inputs and assumptions the Company believes would be made by market participants. Changes in any of those inputs together or in isolation may result in significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions, for further discussion of significant inputs and assumptions used for the valuation of the contingent consideration.
During the measurement period, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration related to the USWM Acquisition and Adamas Acquisition are recorded against goodwill if such changes are related to facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. In each reporting period after the acquisition, the Company remeasures the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities and records in its consolidated statements of earnings the increases or decreases in the fair value of the liabilities.
In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company recorded a measurement period adjustment of $40.9 million related to the USWM Acquisition. Refer to Note 3, Acquisitions.
The Company recorded a $6.5 million gain due to the change in fair value of the USWM contingent consideration liability during the year-ended December 31, 2021. The change in fair value of $6.5 million was reported on the consolidated statement of earnings in Contingent consideration (gain) expense. The change in fair value was primarily due to the write-down of the sales based contingent consideration liabilities offset by an increase in the estimated fair value of regulatory and developmental milestones due to the passage of time. The Company assessed that these sales-based milestones will not be achieved based on the revised net sales projections. The probability of achieving these milestones were significantly lower compared to prior estimates. The Company updated its projected net sales of the Products based on recent historical sales trend experience.
As mentioned in Note 1, the Company received notice from the FDA on February 18, 2022 of its acceptance for review of the NDA for SPN-830. The regulatory and developmental contingent consideration payments include a $25 million milestone due upon the FDA acceptance of the SPN-830 NDA for review, which was paid in the first quarter of 2022.
