Summary of Investments, Cash and Cash Equivalents, Credit Facility, or Prior Credit Facility, Notes and Asset Backed Debt

Our investments, cash and cash equivalents, Credit Facility, 2023 Notes, 2026 Notes, 2031 Asset-Backed Debt, and 2036 Asset-Backed Debt were categorized as follows in the fair value hierarchy for ASC 820 purposes ($ in thousands):

(1)In accordance with ASC Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820-10, our equity investment in PSSL and PTSF are measured using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient for fair value, and thus have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy.

(2)We elected not to apply the fair value option allowed by ASC 825-10 to the 2026 Notes, 2031 Asset-Backed Debt, and 2036 Asset-Backed Debt and thus the balance reported in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities represents the carrying value, which approximates the fair value.

Tabular disclosure of the fair value measurement of assets using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances, separately presenting changes during the period attributable to the following: (1) total gains or losses for the period (realized and unrealized), segregating those gains or losses included in earnings (or changes in net assets) and gains or losses recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), and a description of where those gains or losses included in earnings (or changes in net assets) are reported in the statement of income (or activities); (2) purchases, sales, issues, and settlements (each type disclosed separately); and (3) transfers in and transfers out of Level 3 (for example, transfers due to changes in the observability of significant inputs), by class of asset.
