Fair Value Measurements

3 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2023

For certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate their respective fair values due to the relatively short maturity of these amounts.

FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurements, requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market assuming an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820 established market (observable inputs) as the preferred source of fair value, to be followed by our assumptions of fair value based on hypothetical transactions (unobservable inputs) in the absence of observable market inputs. Based upon the above, the following fair value hierarchy was created:

Level 1 - Quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, as well as quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not considered active; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs developed by us using estimates and assumptions reflective of those that would be utilized by a market participant.

The market values have been determined based on market values for similar instruments adjusted for certain factors. As such, the 2021 Senior Notes, the 2019 Senior Notes, the 2012 Term B-5 Loans, and the 2012 ABL Revolver are measured in Level 2 of the above hierarchy. The summary below details the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of these instruments at June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023.


	June 30, 2023		March 31, 2023
(In thousands)	Carrying Value	Fair Value	Carrying Value	Fair Value
2019 Senior Notes	400,000	379,000	400,000	383,500
2021 Senior Notes	600,000	493,500	600,000	510,750


2012 Term B-5 Loans	330,000	329,175	360,000	359,550

At June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, we did not have any assets or liabilities measured in Level 1 or 3.
