Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] Fair Value Measurements
The Company adopted fair value measurements guidance for financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

The guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

A portion of the Company’s existing cash and cash equivalents are invested in short-term interest-bearing obligations with original maturities less than 90 days, principally various types of treasury funds, money market funds and deposits in banks. The Company does not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes.

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had approximately $149.5 million and $153.2 million, respectively, invested in treasury funds, money market funds, and interest-bearing deposits in banks. The fair value of those investments is determined based on quoted market prices, which represents level 1 in the fair value hierarchy as defined by Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 820, "Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure."

The fair value of the Company's Notes is classified in the level 2 hierarchy. See Note 14 for further detail regarding the Notes.

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had $8.0 million of equity securities in privately held companies and a venture fund, which are included in other assets, noncurrent in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These investments are accounted for at cost, less impairment and adjusted for subsequent observable price changes obtained from orderly transactions for identical or similar investments issued by the same investee. The Company estimates the fair value of its equity investments by considering available information such as pricing in recent rounds of financing and any other readily available market data, which represents level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. An impairment charge to current earnings is recorded when the cost of the investment exceeds its fair value and if a qualitative assessment indicated that the investment is impaired.
During the fourth quarter of 2023 and the third quarter of 2022, the Company identified observable price changes related to an equity investment without a readily determinable fair value and recorded non-cash gains of $0.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively, in other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company identified an observable price change related to another equity investment. The change was determined to be a decrease in fair value below the carrying cost of the equity investment and the Company recorded an impairment loss of $2.0 million in other income, net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company determined there were no impairments on its equity investments.
