Contingent consideration

Contingent consideration liabilities associated with business combinations are fair value measurement items. These liabilities represent an obligation of the Company to transfer additional assets to the selling shareholders and owners if future events occur or conditions are met. These liabilities associated with business combinations are measured at fair value at inception and at each subsequent reporting date. The changes in the fair value are primarily due to the expected amount and timing of future net sales, which are inputs that have no observable market (Level 3).

The following table is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of contingent considerations and is based on level 3 significant unobservable inputs.




Balance at December 31, 2019	$	29.2
Change in fair value	0.6
Settlements	(0.7		)
Balance at March 31, 2020	$	29.1
