The valuation techniques used to measure the fair values of the Company’s Level 2 financial instruments, which generally have counterparties with high credit ratings, are based on quoted market prices when available. If quoted market prices are not available, the fair value for the security is estimated under the market or income approach using pricing models with market observable inputs.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of investments in marketable securities by effective contractual maturity dates as of June 30, 2024 (in thousands):


Within one year	$	340,064
After one year through two years		100,209
Total cash equivalents and marketable securities	$	440,273

As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s marketable securities in an unrealized loss position include primarily fixed-rate debt securities of varying maturities, which are sensitive to changes in the yield curve and other market conditions. Substantially all of the fixed-rate debt securities in a loss position are investment-grade debt securities. The Company has the intent and ability to hold such securities until recovery of the unrealized losses. Based on the Company’s assessment, the unrealized losses as of June 30, 2024 were primarily due to changes in interest rates and not due to increased credit risks associated with specific securities. No allowance for credit losses was recorded as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
