FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2016

The following table presents information about our financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. In instances in which the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, we classify assets and liabilities based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Disclosures concerning financial instruments measured at fair value are as follows (in thousands):
