As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s cash equivalents consisted of a money market fund, which was valued based upon Level 1 inputs.  The Company’s marketable securities as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 consisted of commercial paper, and asset-backed, U.S. government, foreign government agency and corporate debt securities, which were all valued based upon Level 2 inputs.  Marketable securities also included U.S. government agency debt securities as of September 30, 2022, which were valued based upon Level 2 inputs.

In determining the fair value of its Level 2 investments, the Company relies on quoted prices for identical securities in markets that are not active. These quoted prices are obtained by the Company with the assistance of a third-party pricing service based on available trade, bid and other observable market data for identical securities.  The Company compares the quoted prices obtained from the third-party pricing service to other available independent pricing information to validate the reasonableness of the quoted prices provided.  The Company evaluates whether adjustments to third-party pricing are necessary and, historically, the Company has not made adjustments to quoted prices obtained from the third-party pricing service.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, there were no transfers into or out of Level 3.

The overall $2.4 million decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was mainly due to higher discount rates, resulting from higher risk-free rates and wider credit spreads, being applied to potential payments relative to prior periods.  The decrease was partially offset by an increase in the contingent consideration liability as a result of the impact of the passage of time and other valuation model assumption modifications.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale marketable securities by type of security was as follows:
