______________________________ *Amounts as of October 26, 2025 and October 27, 2024 include $71 million and $91 million, respectively, invested in money market funds related to deferred compensation plans. Due to restrictions on the distribution of these funds, they are classified as restricted cash equivalents and are included in deferred income taxes and other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We did not have any financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis within Level 3 fair value measurements as of October 26, 2025 or October 27, 2024. Assets and Liabilities without Readily Determinable Values Measured on a Non-recurring Basis Our equity investments without readily determinable values consist of equity investments in privately held companies. We elected the measurement alternative, defined as cost, less impairments, adjusted for subsequent observable price changes on a prospective basis for certain equity investments without readily determinable fair values and are required to account for any subsequent observable changes in fair value within the statements of operations. These investments are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy and periodically assessed for impairment when an event or circumstance indicates that a decline in value may have occurred. Impairment losses on equity investments in privately held companies, included in the above table, were not material during fiscal 2025 and 2024 and were $121 million during fiscal 2023. These impairment losses are included in interest and other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Other The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash equivalents, accounts receivable, commercial paper notes, and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to their short maturities. At October 26, 2025, the aggregate principal amount of long-term senior unsecured notes was $6.5 billion, and the estimated fair value was $6.2 billion. At October 27, 2024, the aggregate principal amount of long-term senior unsecured notes was $5.5 billion and the estimated fair value was $5.1 billion. The estimated fair value of long-term senior unsecured notes is determined by Level 2 inputs and is based primarily on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues. See Note 9 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail of existing debt.
