Fair Value Measurements

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2021

Our financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows (in millions):


			Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using
As of June 30, 2021	Fair Value		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Valuation Technique (1)
Other long-term assets:
Equity securities	$	79.9	$	3.0	$	76.9	$	—	M

Redeemable noncontrolling interests	32.9		—		—		32.9		I
As of December 31, 2020
Other long-term assets:
Equity securities	$	72.6	$	—	$	72.6	$	—	M

Redeemable noncontrolling interests	31.6		—		—		31.6		I

(1) The three valuation techniques are: market approach (M), cost approach (C), and income approach (I).

There are assets and liabilities that are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, these assets may be recorded at fair value as a result of impairment charges or other adjustments made to the carrying value of the applicable assets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, we did not record any material gains or losses related to these assets.

As discussed in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, “Fair Value Measurements,” to the consolidated financial statements accompanying the 2020 Form 10‑K, the carrying value equals fair value for our financial instruments that are not included in the table below and are classified as current in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values for all of our other financial instruments are presented in the following table (in millions):


	As of June 30, 2021				As of December 31, 2020
	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value
Long-term debt:
Advances under revolving credit facility	$	45.0	$	45.0	$	—	$	—
Term loan facilities	245.1		246.4		251.6		253.1
5.125% Senior Notes due 2023	99.5		100.3		298.1		302.6

Other notes payable	50.2		50.2		39.8		39.8
Financial commitments:

Fair values for our long-term debt and financial commitments are determined using inputs, including quoted prices in nonactive markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly, or Level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. See Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, “Fair Value Measurements,” to the consolidated financial statements accompanying the 2020 Form 10‑K.
