Schedule of Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following tables present information about Mattel's financial assets and liabilities measured and reported in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized to determine such fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

•Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.

•Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

•Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, supported by little or no market activity, and significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
