Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. An asset’s or liability’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value: •Level 1 - Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company is able to access. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of such assets or liabilities do not entail a significant degree of judgment. •Level 2 - Valuations based on one or more quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. •Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Level 1. The Company considers all highly liquid investments, such as certificates of deposit and money market instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition to be cash equivalents. For all periods presented, its cash balances consist of amounts held in non-interest-bearing and interest-bearing deposits and money market accounts and are within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2. Notes due 2028, Notes due 2026, Notes due 2025 and Notes due 2024. The Company carries the Notes due 2028, Notes due 2026, Notes due 2025 and Notes due 2024 (as defined below) at face value less unamortized discount and issuance costs on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the Notes due 2028, Notes due 2026, Notes due 2025 and Notes due 2024 was $564.9 million, $624.1 million, $220.8 million and $9.1 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2021 based on the closing trading prices per $100 principal amount as of the last day of trading for the period. The Company considers the fair value of the Notes due 2028, Notes due 2026, Notes due 2025 and Notes due 2024 to be a Level 2 measurement as they are not actively traded. Level 3. Investments in debt securities In January 2021, the Company invested approximately $25.0 million in a privately-held company. The Company concluded the investment qualifies as an investment in a debt security as it accrues interest and principal plus accrued interest become payable back to the Company at certain dates unless it is converted to equity at a pre-determined price. As the investment includes a conversion option, the Company has elected to account for this investment under the fair value option and any change in fair value of the investment is recognized in “Other income (expense), net” in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for that period. Further, the Company has concluded that the Company’s investment in a debt security is considered to be a Level 3 measurement due to the use of significant unobservable inputs in the valuation model. These assumption include implied yield and change in estimated term of investment being held-to-maturity. In June 2021, the Company invested approximately $20.0 million in secured convertible promissory notes issued by a privately-held company. The investment qualifies as an investment in a debt security and will accrete interest and principal plus accrued interest becomes payable at certain dates unless it is converted to equity at a pre-determined price. As the investment includes a conversion option, the Company has elected to account for this investment under the fair value option and any change in fair value of the investment is recognized in “Other income (expense), net” in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for that period. Further, the Company has concluded that the Company’s investment in a debt security is considered to be a Level 3 measurement due to the use of significant unobservable inputs in the valuation model. Investment in debt securities are recorded in “Other Assets” on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2021. The changes in the balance in investments in debt securities during the period are as follows:

Contingent consideration The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration incurred in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Sofdesk is considered to be a Level 3 measurement due to the use of significant unobservable inputs. These unobservable inputs include probability assessment of expected future customer count over the period in which the obligation is expected to be settled. The value was determined using a discounted risk-neutral expected (probability-weighted) cash flow methodology. The resulting expected contingent consideration payment is discounted back to present value using our cost of debt. The fair value of contingent consideration arrangement is reassessed quarterly based on assumptions used in the Company’s latest projections and input provided by management. Any change in the fair value estimate, which could include accretion of interest expense due to passage of time as well as any changes in the inputs to the model, is recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations for that period. The following table reflects the activity for the Company’s contingent consideration liabilities measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021:

Warranty obligations. Fair Value Option for Warranty Obligations Related to Microinverters and Other Products Sold Since January 1, 2014 The Company estimates the fair value of warranty obligations by calculating the warranty obligations in the same manner as for sales prior to January 1, 2014 and applying an expected present value technique to that result. The expected present value technique, an income approach, converts future amounts into a single current discounted amount. In addition to the key estimates of failure rates, claim rates and replacement costs, the Company used certain Level 3 inputs which are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Such additional assumptions included a discount rate based on the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free rate and compensation comprised of a profit element and risk premium required of a market participant to assume the obligation. The following table provides information regarding changes in nonfinancial liabilities related to the Company’s warranty obligations measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the periods indicated.

Quantitative and Qualitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s liabilities designated as Level 3 are as follows:
|  |  |  |  |  | Percent Used (Weighted Average)
Item Measured at Fair Value |  | Valuation Technique |  | Description of Significant Unobservable Input |  | June 30, 2021 |  | December 31, 2020
Warranty obligations for microinverters sold since January 1, 2014 |  | Discounted cash flows |  | Profit element and risk premium |  | 15% |  | 15%
|  | Credit-adjusted risk-free rate |  | 13% |  | 13%
Sensitivity of Level 3 Inputs - Warranty Obligations Each of the significant unobservable inputs is independent of the other. The profit element and risk premium are estimated based on requirements of a third-party participant willing to assume the Company’s warranty obligations. The credit‑adjusted risk‑free rate (“discount rate”) is determined by reference to the Company’s own credit standing at the fair value measurement date. Increasing the profit element and risk premium input by 100 basis points would result in a $0.3 million increase to the liability. Decreasing the profit element and risk premium by 100 basis points would result in a $0.3 million reduction of the liability. Increasing the discount rate by 100 basis points would result in a $1.8 million reduction of the liability. Decreasing the discount rate by 100 basis points would result in a $2.0 million increase to the liability.
