The Company monitors its investments for other-than-temporary impairment and records appropriate reductions in carrying value when necessary. The Company monitors its investments for other-than-temporary losses by considering current factors, including the economic environment, market conditions, operational performance and other specific factors relating to the business underlying the investment, reductions in carrying values when necessary and the Company’s ability and intent to hold the investment for a period of time which may be sufficient for anticipated recovery in the market. Any other-than-temporary loss is reported under “Interest and other income (expense), net” on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

During the second half of 2018, the Company made an investment in a non-marketable equity security of a private company. This equity investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting, and the Company accounts for its equity method share of the income (loss) on a quarterly basis. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying value of the Company’s 25.0% ownership percentage was $1.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively, which were included in other assets on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recorded immaterial amounts on its condensed consolidated statements of operations representing its share of the investee’s loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

The Company has a liability related to the contingent earn-out consideration from the PLDA acquisition, which is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the fair value is determined using significant unobservable inputs.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no transfers of financial instruments between different categories of fair value.

The following table presents the financial instruments that are not carried at fair value but require fair value disclosure as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:


	As of March 31, 2022						As of December 31, 2021

(1) As of March 31, 2022, the $64.6 million balance consisted of $49.4 million aggregate principal amount of 2023 Notes, as well as the face value of the remaining 2023 Notes Partial Repurchase of $15.2 million.

The fair value of the convertible notes at each balance sheet date is determined based on recent quoted market prices for these notes which is a level 2 measurement. As discussed in Note 10, “Convertible Notes,” as of March 31, 2022, the

convertible notes were carried at their face value of $64.6 million, plus the conversion premium of the remaining 2023 Notes Partial Repurchase, less any unamortized debt issuance costs. The carrying value of other financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable and other liabilities, approximated fair value due to their short maturities.
