The Company transfers its financial assets and liabilities, measured at fair value on a recurring basis, between the fair value hierarchies at the end of each reporting period.

There were no transfers of any securities between levels during the three months ended March 31, 2024. At March 31, 2024, the Company had no investments with fair values that were determined using Level 3 inputs.

The Company’s investments classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy were initially valued at the transaction price and subsequently valued, at the end of each reporting period, utilizing market-observable data. The market-observable data included reportable trades, benchmark yields, credit spreads, broker/dealer quotes, bids, offers, current spot rates and other industry and economic events. The Company validated the prices developed using the market-observable data by obtaining market values from other pricing sources, analyzing pricing data in certain instances and confirming that the relevant markets are active.

The carrying amounts reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, contract assets, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, sales discounts, allowances and reserves approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt under its amended and restated credit agreement (such debt, the “2026 Term Loans”), which was based on quoted market price indications (Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy) and which may not be representative of actual values that could have been, or will be, realized in the future, was $283.7 million and $291.0 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
