Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements:

ASC 820-10 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. ASC 820 requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Active market means a market in which transactions for assets or liabilities occur with “sufficient frequency” and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing unadjusted basis. Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at acquisition. We have determined that our cash equivalents in their entirety are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Our Level 2 assets primarily include debt securities, including corporate bonds with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments. All of our Level 2 asset values are determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. The pricing model information is provided by third party entities (e.g., banks or brokers). In some instances, these third party entities engage external pricing services to estimate the fair value of these securities. We have a general understanding of the methodologies employed by the pricing services in their pricing models. We corroborate the estimates of non-binding quotes from the third party entities’ pricing services to an independent source that provides quoted market prices from broker or dealer quotations. We investigate large differences, if any. Based on historical differences, we have not been required to adjust quotes provided by the third party entities’ pricing services used in estimating the fair value of these securities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The carrying amount reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for accounts receivables, net, inventories, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, payables due to distribution agreement partners, accrued salaries and employee benefits, accrued government pricing liabilities, accrued legal fees, accrued legal settlements, payable to former Anchen securityholders, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term nature.

Non-financial assets and liabilities

The Company does not have any non-financial assets or liabilities as of March 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013 that are measured in the condensed consolidated financial statements at fair value.

Intangible Assets

We evaluate long-lived assets, including intangible assets with definite lives, for impairment periodically or whenever events or other changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may no longer be recoverable. If such circumstances are determined to exist, projected undiscounted future cash flows to be generated by the long-lived asset or the appropriate grouping of assets (level 3 inputs), is compared to the carrying value to determine whether impairment exists at its lowest level of identifiable cash flows. During the three months endedMarch 31, 2014, we recorded intangible asset impairments totaling $41,758 thousand for two generic products not expected to achieve their originally forecasted operating results. There was no intangible asset impairment during the three months endedMarch 31, 2013.

Derivative Instruments - Interest Rate Caps

We use interest rate cap agreements to manage our interest rate risk on our variable rate long-term debt. Refer to Note 16, "Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities," for further information.
