Fair Value Measurements

12 Months Ended

Jan. 02, 2022

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents, derivatives, marketable securities and accounts receivable. The Company believes it had no significant concentrations of credit risk as of January 2, 2022.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are primarily comprised of marketable securities, derivative contracts used to hedge the Company’s currency risk, and acquisition related contingent consideration. The Company has not elected to measure any additional financial instruments or other items at fair value.

Valuation Hierarchy: The following summarizes the three levels of inputs required to measure fair value. For Level 1 inputs, the Company utilizes quoted market prices as these instruments have active markets. For Level 2 inputs, the Company utilizes quoted market prices in markets that are not active, broker or dealer quotations, or utilizes alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. For Level 3 inputs, the Company utilizes unobservable inputs based on the best information available, including estimates by management primarily based on information provided by third-party fund managers, independent brokerage firms and insurance companies. A financial asset’s or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible.

The following tables show the assets and liabilities carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis as of January 2, 2022 and January 3, 2021 classified in one of the three classifications described above:


			Fair Value Measurements at January 2, 2022 Using:

Level 1 and Level 2 Valuation Techniques: The Company’s Level 1 and Level 2 assets and liabilities are comprised of investments in equity and fixed-income securities as well as derivative contracts. For financial assets and liabilities that utilize Level 1 and Level 2 inputs, the Company utilizes both direct and indirect observable price quotes, including common stock price quotes, foreign exchange forward prices and bank price quotes. Below is a summary of valuation techniques for Level 1 and Level 2 financial assets and liabilities.

Marketable securities: Include equity and fixed-income securities measured at fair value using the quoted market prices in active markets at the reporting date.

Foreign exchange derivative assets and liabilities: Include foreign exchange derivative contracts that are valued using quoted forward foreign exchange prices at the reporting date. The Company’s foreign exchange derivative contracts are subject to master netting arrangements that allow the Company and its counterparties to net settle amounts owed to each other. Derivative assets and liabilities that can be net settled under these arrangements have been presented in the Company's consolidated balance sheet on a net basis and are recorded in other assets. As of both January 2, 2022 and January 3, 2021, none of the master netting arrangements involved collateral.

Level 3 Valuation Techniques: The Company’s Level 3 liabilities are comprised of contingent consideration related to acquisitions. For liabilities that utilize Level 3 inputs, the Company uses significant unobservable inputs. Below is a summary of valuation techniques for Level 3 liabilities.

Contingent consideration: Contingent consideration is measured at fair value at the acquisition date using projected milestone dates, discount rates, probabilities of success and projected revenues (for revenue-based considerations). Projected risk-adjusted contingent payments are discounted back to the current period using a discounted cash flow model.

The fair values of contingent consideration are calculated on a quarterly basis based on a collaborative effort of the Company’s regulatory, research and development, operations, finance and accounting groups, as appropriate. Potential valuation adjustments are made as additional information becomes available, including the progress towards achieving proof of concept, regulatory approvals and revenue targets as compared to initial projections, the impact of market competition and market landscape shifts from non-invasive prenatal testing products, with the impact of such adjustments being recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

As of January 2, 2022, the Company may have to pay contingent consideration, related to acquisitions with open contingency periods that are substantially all revenue-based consideration, of up to $108.4 million. The expected maximum earnout period for acquisitions with open contingency period does not exceed 6.9 years from January 2, 2022, and the remaining weighted average expected earnout period at January 2, 2022 was 5.4 years.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending Level 3 net liabilities for contingent consideration is as follows:


	(In thousands)
Balance at December 30, 2018	$	(69,661)
Additions	(12,734)
Amounts paid and foreign currency translation	50,795

Change in fair value (included within selling, general and administrative expenses)	(3,881)
Balance at December 29, 2019	(35,481)

Amounts paid and foreign currency translation	23,701

Change in fair value (included within selling, general and administrative expenses)	8,827
Balance at January 3, 2021	(2,953)
Additions	(57,431)
Amounts paid and foreign currency translation	5,507
Change in fair value (included within selling, general and administrative expenses)	(3,119)
Balance at January 2, 2022	$	(57,996)

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities. If measured at fair value, cash and cash equivalents would be classified as Level 1.

The Company's outstanding senior unsecured notes had an aggregate fair value of $4,612.8 million and aggregate carrying value of $4,479.5 million as of January 2, 2022. The Company's outstanding senior unsecured notes had an aggregate fair value of $1,984.3 million and aggregate carrying value of $1,811.5 million as of January 3, 2021. The fair values of the outstanding senior unsecured notes were estimated using market quotes from brokers and were based on current rates offered for similar debt, which are Level 2 measurements.

The Company’s other debt facilities, including the Company's senior revolving credit facility and term loan facility, had an aggregate carrying value of $504.5 million and $179.1 million as of January 2, 2022 and January 3, 2021, respectively. The carrying value approximates fair value and were classified as Level 2.
