Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.

Financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. For discussion of the fair value measurements related to goodwill, and long- or indefinite-lived asset impairment charges, refer to Notes 4 and 5. At October 7, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the book value and estimated fair value of the Company’s debt instruments, excluding debt financing costs, were as follows:


	October 7,			December 31,
(In thousands)	2023			2022
Book value of debt instruments, excluding debt financing costs:
Current maturities of long-term debt and finance lease liabilities	$	8,410		$	6,789
Long-term debt and finance lease liabilities		540,147			501,419
Total book value of debt instruments		548,557			508,208
Fair value of debt instruments, excluding debt financing costs		545,025			507,668
Deficit of fair value over book value	$	(3,532	)	$	(540	)

The estimated fair value of debt is based on market quotes for instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities (Level 2 inputs and valuation techniques).

The Company's interest rate swap agreement is considered a Level 2 instrument. The Company values the interest rate swap using standard models and observable market inputs including SOFR interest rates and discount rates, which are considered Level 2 inputs. The location and the fair value of the interest rate swap agreement in the condensed consolidated balance sheet is disclosed in Note 7.
