Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements As of the dates presented, we had assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis. We use a fair value hierarchy that requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value as follows: •Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; •Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly through corroboration with market data; and •Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect our own estimates about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Certain of our assets are required to be recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. We review our long-lived assets, including inventory, for recoverability when factors indicate an impairment may exist, but no less than quarterly. The fair value of assets deemed to be impaired is determined based upon the type of asset being evaluated. The fair value of our owned inventory assets, when required to be calculated, is further discussed within Note 4. Due to the substantial use of unobservable inputs in valuing the assets on a non-recurring basis, they are classified within Level 3. Determining within which hierarchical level an asset or liability falls requires significant judgment. We evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter. The following table presents the period-end balances of assets measured at fair value for each hierarchy level:
in thousands | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3 |  | Total
As of March 31, 2025 |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Deferred compensation plan assets(a) | $ | 8,115 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 8,115 |
(a) Amount is measured at fair value on a recurring basis and included in other assets within the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, other liabilities, and amounts due under the Unsecured Facility (if outstanding) approximate their carrying amounts due to the short maturity of these assets and liabilities. When outstanding, obligations related to land not owned under option agreements approximate fair value. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of certain other financial assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2025 and September 30, 2024:
| As of March 31, 2025 |  | As of September 30, 2024

Total financial assets | $ | 5,461 |  |  | $ | 5,461 |  |  | $ | 9,449 |  |  | $ | 9,584 |

Junior Subordinated Notes(d) | 77,437 |  |  | 77,437 |  |  | 76,404 |  |  | 76,404 |

(a) Certificates of deposit held for investment with an original maturity greater than three months are carried at original cost plus accrued interest and reported as other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The type of certificates of deposit that the Company invests in are not considered debt securities under ASC Topic 320, Investments - Debt Securities. The estimated fair value of our certificates of deposit has been determined using quoted market rates (Level 2). (b) Carrying amounts for financial liabilities are net of unamortized debt issuance costs or accretion. (c) The estimated fair value of our publicly-held Senior Notes has been determined using quoted market rates (Level 2). (d) Since there is no trading market for our Junior Subordinated Notes, the fair value of these notes is estimated by discounting scheduled cash flows through maturity (Level 3). The discount rate is estimated using market rates currently being offered on loans with similar terms and credit quality. Judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop these estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that we could realize in a current market exchange.
