Fair Value Measurements
Note 10 — Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s current assets and current liabilities are financial instruments and most of these items (other than marketable securities, inventories and the short-term portion of deferred compensation funding) are recorded at cost in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The estimated fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying value due to their short-term nature. The carrying value of the Company’s line of credit represents the outstanding amount of the borrowings, which approximates fair value. The Company’s financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are its marketable securities and deferred compensation funding. The recorded values of all of the financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature, stated interest rates and respective maturity dates or durations.

The Company’s marketable securities are held by the Company’s captive insurance company to satisfy capital requirements of the state regulator related to captive insurance companies. Such securities primarily consist of tax-exempt municipal bonds, which are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses associated with these investments are included in Unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale marketable securities, net of taxes within the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The fair value of these marketable securities is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, as these securities are measured using quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable. Such valuations are determined by a third-party pricing service. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded unrealized gains, net of taxes of $1.6 million on marketable securities. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded unrealized losses, net of taxes of $7.5 million and $1.6 million on marketable securities, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company received total proceeds, less the amount of interest received, of $2.0 million, $10.4 million and $26.7 million, respectively, from sales of available-for-sale municipal bonds. For both years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, these sales each resulted in realized losses of less than $0.1 million, and realized gains of less than $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Such gains and losses were recorded in Investment and other income (loss), net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The basis for the sale of these securities was the specific identification of each bond sold during the period.

As part of a 2021 acquisition of a prepackaged meal manufacturer, the Company agreed to pay royalties to the seller on all future product sales. The Company recorded a liability for the expected future payments within Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of this liability is measured using forecasted sales models (Level 3). For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded realized gains of $1.1 million, $2.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, within Costs of services provided in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income related to the subsequent measurement of the liability at each balance sheet date.

The investments under the funded deferred compensation plan are accounted for as trading securities and unrealized gains or losses are recorded within other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The fair value of these investments, excluding amounts held in money market accounts, is determined based on quoted market prices (Level 1). The fair value of money market accounts is measured using quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active (Level 2). For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded unrealized gains of $6.6 million, losses of $9.3 million and gains of $6.5 million, respectively, related to equity securities still held at the respective reporting dates.

1.The fair value of the money market fund is based on the net asset value (“NAV”) of the shares held by the fund at the end of the period. The money market fund includes short-term United States dollar denominated money market instruments and the NAV is determined by the custodian of the fund. The money market fund can be redeemed at its NAV at the measurement date as there are no significant restrictions on the ability to sell this investment.
2.The deferred compensation fund carrying amounts and total fair value amounts as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are inclusive of $1.5 million and $1.6 million of holdings expected to be paid to former employees within the next twelve months and were recorded under Prepaid expenses and other assets in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
