FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques the Company uses to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:


Level 1 Inputs						Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Inputs						Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.
Level 3 Inputs						Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amount of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of debt approximates fair value due to the variable nature of interest rates.

As part of the Company’s continued cost savings initiatives, the Company is actively looking to terminate or sublease certain office spaces and call centers. These actions resulted in a $25.0 million operating lease impairment charge for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, reducing the carrying value of the associated ROU assets and leasehold improvements to the estimated fair values. The fair value was estimated using a discounted cash flows approach on forecasted future cash flows expected to be derived from the property based on current sublease market rent, which is considered a level 3 input in the fair value hierarchy. A 5% increase or decrease to the market rent per square foot input would increase or decrease the estimated fair value and resulting impairment charge by approximately $1.0 million.
