INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS |
4. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Strategic Investments Marketable Equity Securities Our short-term investments consist of marketable equity securities, primarily our retained investment in GRAIL subsequent to the Spin-Off. As of September 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, the fair value of our marketable equity securities totaled $228 million and $93 million, respectively. Gains (losses) recognized in other income (expense), net on marketable equity securities were as follows:
In millions | Q3 2025 |  | Q3 2024 |  | YTD 2025 |  | YTD 2024
Net gains (losses) recognized during the period (1) | $ | 7 |  |  | $ | (4) |  |  | $ | 135 |  |  | $ | (333) |

Net unrealized gains (losses) recognized during the period on securities still held at the reporting date | $ | 7 |  |  | $ | (4) |  |  | $ | 135 |  |  | $ | (333) |
_____________ (1)Subsequent to the Spin-Off of GRAIL, we recognized a loss of $332 million in YTD 2024 on our retained investment. Non-Marketable Equity Securities As of September 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, non-marketable equity securities, without readily determinable fair values, included in other assets, were $58 million and $26 million, respectively. Venture Funds We invest in three venture capital investment funds (the Funds), which are accounted for as equity-method investments. The aggregate carrying amount of the Funds, included in other assets, was $215 million and $201 million as of September 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively. Gains and losses are recorded in other income (expense), net. We recorded net gains of $2 million and $10 million in Q3 2025 and YTD 2025, respectively. We recorded net losses of $6 million and $3 million in Q3 2024 and YTD 2024, respectively. Our commitments to the Funds are as follows:
Dollars in millions | Capital commitments |  | Callable through date |  | Remaining callable as of September 28, 2025 (1)
Fund I | $ | 100 |  |  | April 2026 |  | $ | 3 |
Fund II | $ | 150 |  |  | July 2029 |  | $ | 39 |
Fund III | $ | 60 |  |  | December 2034 |  | $ | 27 |
_____________ (1)Fund I also had approximately $10 million of distributions that are recallable through December 31, 2025. Revenue recognized from transactions with our strategic investees was $7 million and $22 million for Q3 2025 and YTD 2025, respectively, and $7 million and $13 million for Q3 2024 and YTD 2024, respectively. Fair Value Measurements The following table presents the hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Marketable equity securities are measured at fair value based on quoted trade prices in active markets. For other investments, which are included in other assets and consist primarily of convertible notes, we elected the fair value option. Fair value of the convertible notes is derived using a probability-weighted scenario approach with changes in fair value recognized in other income (expense), net. Deferred compensation plan assets consist primarily of investments in life insurance contracts carried at cash surrender value, which reflects the net asset value of the underlying publicly traded mutual funds. We corroborate the fair value of our holdings, comparing valuations obtained from our investment service provider to valuations reported by our asset custodians, validating pricing sources and models, and reviewing key model inputs. Contingent Consideration Liabilities We reassess the fair value of contingent consideration related to acquisitions on a quarterly basis, with changes in the fair value subsequent to the acquisition date, recognized in selling, general and administrative expense. Changes in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities during YTD 2025 were as follows:
In millions |
Balance as of December 29, 2024 | $ | 73 |
Change in estimated fair value | (29) |
Cash payments | (1) |
Balance as of September 28, 2025 | $ | 43 |
The fair value of our contingent consideration liability related to GRAIL was $43 million and $71 million as of September 28, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively, of which $42 million and $70 million, respectively, was included in other long-term liabilities, with the remaining balances included in accrued liabilities. The contingent value rights issued as part of the GRAIL acquisition entitle the holders to receive future cash payments on a quarterly basis (Covered Revenue Payments) representing a pro rata portion of certain GRAIL-related revenues (Covered Revenues) each year for a 12-year period through August 2033. As defined in the Contingent Value Rights Agreement, this will reflect a 2.5% payment right to the first $1 billion of revenue each year for 12 years. Revenue above $1 billion each year will be subject to a 9% contingent payment right during this same period. Covered Revenues for the periods Q4 2024 through Q2 2025 and Q4 2023 through Q2 2024 were $106 million and $89 million, respectively, driven primarily by sales of GRAIL’s Galleri test. Covered Revenue Payments relating to such periods were $994,000 and $836,000, respectively, which were paid in YTD 2025 and YTD 2024, respectively. We use a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the fair value of our GRAIL contingent consideration. Estimates and assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation include forecasted revenues for GRAIL, a revenue risk premium, a revenue volatility estimate, an operational leverage ratio and a counterparty credit spread. These unobservable inputs represent a Level 3 measurement because they are supported by little or no market activity and reflect our own assumptions in measuring fair value. Subsequent to the GRAIL Spin-Off, we no longer have access to GRAIL management’s forecasts. Therefore, we rely on information made public by GRAIL and information published in analyst reports to estimate forecasted revenues through August 2033. To estimate the liability as of September 28, 2025, we selected a revenue risk premium of 3%. Given volatility in GRAIL’s market capitalization, the revenue risk premium is derived from reconciling forecasted revenues for GRAIL to GRAIL’s market capitalization, primarily using a 60-day trailing average, and consideration of a Capital Asset Pricing Model and comparable company betas. The assumptions used in estimating the fair value of our contingent consideration liability related to GRAIL are inherently subject to uncertainty and we note that small changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on the concluded value. For example, an increase or decrease of 20%, in each year, to the forecasted revenues would have resulted in an increase of $13 million and a decrease of $11 million, respectively, in the liability as of September 28, 2025. Additionally, an increase or decrease of 250 basis points to the selected revenue risk premium would have resulted in a decrease of $8 million and an increase of $10 million, respectively. We expect high levels of volatility in the GRAIL contingent consideration liability are possible in future periods.
