FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, include cash, restricted cash, receivables, earnest money deposits, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, customer and builder deposits, borrowings on lines of credit, senior unsecured notes, and contingent consideration liability.

Per the fair value hierarchy, level 1 financial instruments include: cash, restricted cash, receivables, earnest money deposits, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and customer and builder deposits due to their short-term nature. The Company estimates that, due to the short-term nature of the underlying financial instruments or the proximity of the underlying transaction to the applicable reporting date, the fair value of level 1 financial instruments does not differ materially from the aggregate carrying values recorded in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Level 2 financial instruments include borrowings on lines of credit and senior unsecured notes. Due to the short-term nature and floating interest rate terms, the carrying amounts of borrowings on lines of credit are deemed to approximate fair value. The estimated fair value of the senior unsecured notes as of December 31, 2020 was $125.2 million.

The fair value of the contingent consideration liability related to the GRBK GHO business combination was estimated using an internally developed discounted cash flow analysis. As the measurement of the contingent consideration is based primarily on significant inputs not observable in the market, it represents a level 3 measurement.

Key inputs in measuring the fair value of the contingent consideration liability are management’s projections of GRBK GHO’s net income and debt, and the annual discount rate of 16.5% that reflects the risk associated with achieving the milestones of the contingent consideration payments.

The reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for level 3 measurements is as follows (in thousands):


	Carrying Value		Estimated Fair Value
Contingent consideration liability, balance as of December 31, 2019	$	5,267	$	5,267

Payment of contingent consideration in excess of acquisition date fair value	(5,267)		(5,267)
Change in fair value of contingent consideration	368		368
Contingent consideration liability, balance as of December 31, 2020	$	368	$	368

There were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy for any of our financial instruments as of December 31, 2020 when compared to December 31, 2019.

Fair Value of Nonfinancial Instruments

Nonfinancial assets and liabilities include inventory which is measured at cost unless the carrying value is determined to be not recoverable in which case the affected instrument is written down to fair value. Per the fair value hierarchy, these items are level 3 nonfinancial instruments.
