All long-term investments had maturities of between one and two years in duration as of June 30, 2020. Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and investments as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 held domestically were approximately $960.0 million and $963.4 million, respectively.

As of January 1, 2020, we did not have an allowance for credit losses related to our available-for-sale securities, which are comprised of fixed income securities, certificates of deposit, and money market funds. Our fixed income securities, which are predominantly high-grade corporate bonds, U.S. Treasury bonds, and U.S. Agency bonds, hold similar risk characteristics in that they are traded infrequently, with contractual interest rates and maturity dates. Our certificates of deposit have infrequent secondary market trades and are priced mathematically based on accretion or amortization from purchase date to maturity. Money market funds are actively traded and short-term, and, as a result, the risk for these securities is lower than the risk associated with fixed income securities and certificates of deposit. As a result of our adoption of ASC 326 effective January 1, 2020, we determined that the gross unrealized losses of $0.1 million as of January 1, 2020 were not related to credit losses and, as a result, were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2020, we had gross unrealized losses of less than $0.1 million with respect to our available-for-sale securities, and we do not intend to sell, nor is it more likely than not that we will be required to sell, these investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis. Credit loss expense related to these unrealized losses was not material to our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Contingent Consideration. The following table presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of acquisition-related accrued contingent consideration using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 (in thousands):

Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis. As of June 30, 2020, the fair value of our Notes (as defined in Note 8, Convertible Senior Notes) was $1.2 billion. The carrying amounts of our cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their current fair value because of their nature and relatively short maturity dates or durations.
