*	Contingent consideration represents liabilities recorded at fair value in connection with acquisitions.

Teva determined the fair value of the liabilities for contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant unobservable inputs in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of contingent consideration is based on several factors, such as cash flows projected from the success of unapproved product candidates; probability of success of product candidates, including risks associated with uncertainty regarding achievement and payment of milestone events; time and resources required to complete the development and approval of product candidates; life of the potential commercialized products and associated risks with obtaining regulatory approvals in the United States and Europe, and the risk adjusted discount rate for fair value measurement. A probability of success factor of 100% was used in the fair value calculation to reflect inherent regulatory and commercial risks of the contingent payments and IPR&D. The discount rate applied ranged from 8.5% to 11%. The weighted average discount rate, calculated based on the relative fair value of Teva’s contingent consideration liabilities, was 8.95%. Contingent consideration is evaluated quarterly, or more frequently, if circumstances dictate. Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration are recorded in the consolidated statements of income. Significant changes in unobservable inputs, mainly the probability of success and cash flows projected, could result in material changes to the contingent consideration liabilities.

The following table summarizes the activity for the financial assets and liabilities where fair value measurements are estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs:


	Three months ended March 31, 2023			Three months ended March 31, 2022

	(U.S. $ in millions)
Fair value at the beginning of the period	$	(152	)		(175	)

Settlement of contingent consideration:

Eagle transaction		21			23
Novetide transaction		2
Additional contingent consideration resulting from Novetide acquisition*		—			(11	)

Fair value at the end of the period	$	(148	)	$	(196	)

§	Represents an amount less than $0.5 million.

In January 2022, Teva acquired 100% ownership of Novetide Ltd. (“Novetide”), which was previously accounted for as “investment in associated companies”. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination. Total consideration for the transaction included cash and certain contingent royalty payments through 2034. As part of the transaction, Teva recognized a gain under “Share in (profits) losses of associated companies, net”, reflecting the difference between the book value of its investment in Novetide and its fair value as of the date Teva completed its acquisition.

Financial instruments not measured at fair value

Financial instruments measured on a basis other than fair value mostly consist of senior notes and convertible senior debentures (see note 7) and are presented in the table below in terms of fair value (level 1 inputs):


	Estimated fair value*
	March 31,		December 31,
	2023		2022

	(U.S. $ in millions)
Senior notes and sustainability-linked senior notes included under senior notes and loans	$	18,007	$	16,694
Senior notes and convertible senior debentures included under short-term debt		1,013		2,075

Total	$	19,020	$	18,769

*	The fair value was estimated based on quoted market prices.
