The Company’s financial assets measured at fair value are as follows (in thousands):

	September 30, 2020				December 31, 2019
	Fair Value		Level 1		Fair Value		Level 1

Cash	$	975,685	$	975,685	$	463,820	$	463,820
Money market funds		71,793		71,793		51,659		51,659
Restricted cash		746		746		1,854		1,854
Total assets measured and recorded at fair value	$	1,048,224	$	1,048,224	$	517,333	$	517,333

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal market (or most advantageous market, in the absence of a principal market) for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In measuring fair value, the Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used and maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

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

Financial assets and liabilities measured using Level 1 inputs include cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original or remaining maturity of 90 days or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company measured money market funds of $71.8 million and $51.7 million as cash equivalents as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, using Level 1 inputs.

Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means.

The Company did not have Level 2 instruments at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities and reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The Company did not have Level 3 instruments at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis

Non-financial assets such as goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant, and equipment and operating lease right-of-use assets are evaluated for impairment and adjusted to fair value using Level 3 inputs, only when impairment is recognized. The impairments recorded by the Company for certain operating lease right-of-use assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, were not material.
