Fair Value Measurements of Assets and Liabilities

7. Fair Value Measurements of Assets and Liabilities

The fair value of foreign currency exchange forward contracts (see Note 9) are determined using Level 2 inputs. The carrying value of our debt (see Note 8) approximates fair value as it bears interest at floating rates. The carrying amounts of other financial instruments (i.e., cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, bank time deposits, accounts receivable, net, and accounts payable) approximated their fair values at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 due to their short-term nature.

The fair values of acquisition-related contingent payments are estimated using Level 3 inputs. Contingent payments related to acquisitions consist of sales-based payments and are valued using discounted cash flow techniques. The fair value of sales-based payments is based upon probability-weighted future revenue estimates and increases as revenue estimates increase.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of items measured at fair value on a recurring basis that used significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) (in thousands):


	Level 3 - Liabilities
Contingent payments related to acquisitions
Balance December 31, 2023	$	9,799
Settlements		(2,963	)
Balance March 31, 2024	$	6,836
