Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2019

The Company follows ASC 825-10, “Financial Instruments,“ which provides companies the option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. ASC 825-10 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities and to more easily understand the effect of the Company’s choice to use fair value on its earnings. ASC 825-10 also requires entities to display the fair value of the selected assets and liabilities on the face of the balance sheet. The Company has not elected the ASC 825-10 option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value.

Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheet are categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy established by GAAP, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into the following levels:



Level I:	Inputs based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level II:	Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs that are observable and can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level III:	Inputs reflect management’s best estimates and assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the valuation of the instruments.

The following tables set forth the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, based on the three-tier fair value hierarchy:

(1)	The fair values of the Company’s investments in money-market funds are based on the daily quoted market prices for the net asset value of the various money market funds.


(2)	The fair value of assets to fund the deferred compensation liability approximates the cash surrender value of the life insurance premiums and is included in other non-current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.


(3)	The fair market value of the deferred compensation liability is based on the daily quoted market prices for the net asset value of the various funds in which the participants have selected, and is included in other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Level I assets and liabilities include money market funds not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and deferred compensation liability. The Company periodically invests excess cash in money market funds not insured by the FDIC. The Company believes that the investments in money market funds are on deposit with creditworthy financial institutions and that the funds are highly liquid. These money market funds are considered Level I and are included in cash and cash equivalents in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Time deposit account fair values are determined by trade confirmations which mature daily and therefore are considered highly liquid investments. The fair value of the deferred compensation liability is based upon the daily quoted market prices for net asset value on the various funds selected by participants.

Level III assets and liabilities consist of the estimated fair values of contingent consideration as well as the assets to fund the Company's deferred compensation liability. The fair market value of the assets to fund the Company's deferred compensation liability is based upon the cash surrender value of its life insurance premiums.

The fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities related to certain of the Company's acquisitions were estimated using a discounted cash flow method with significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represents a Level III fair value measurement as defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.“ The significant inputs in the Level III measurement not supported by market activity included our assessments of expected future cash flows related to these acquisitions during the subsequent periods from the date of acquisition are appropriately discounted considering the uncertainties associated with the obligation, and calculated in accordance with the terms of their respective agreements.

The Company utilized a discounted cash flow method with expected future performance of these acquisitions, and their ability to meet the target performance objectives as the main driver of the valuation, to arrive at the fair values of their respective contingent consideration. The Company will continue to reassess the fair values of its contingent consideration liabilities at each reporting date until settlement. Changes to these estimated fair values will be recognized in the Company's earnings and included in general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The table below presents a reconciliation of contingent consideration liabilities, which the Company measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level III) for the period from December 31, 2018 to June 30, 2019:



	Fair Value of Contingent Consideration Liabilities
Balance at December 31, 2018	$	732
Private company acquisition	7,580
PortfolioCenter acquisition	8,300
Settlement of contingent consideration liability	(749		)
Accretion on contingent consideration	560
Balance at June 30, 2019	$	16,423

The table below presents a reconciliation of the assets used to fund deferred the Company's deferred compensation liability, which is measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level III) for the period from December 31, 2018 to June 30, 2019:



	Fair Value of Assets to Fund Deferred Compensation Liability
Balance at December 31, 2018	$	6,346
Contributions and fair value adjustments	1,745
Balance at June 30, 2019	$	8,091

The asset value, which is included in other non-current assets on the condensed balance sheets, increased due to funding of the plan and gains on the underlying investment vehicles.

The Company assesses the categorization of assets and liabilities by level at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer, in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy regarding the recognition of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers between Levels I, II and III during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

On December 15, 2014, the Company issued $172,500 of Convertible Notes due 2019. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying value of the Convertible Notes due 2019 equaled $169,182 and $165,711, respectively, and represented the aggregate principal amount outstanding less the unamortized discount and debt issuance costs. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the estimated fair value of the Convertible Notes due 2019 was $193,983 and $174,101, respectively. The Company considered the Convertible Notes due 2019 to be a Level II liability at June 30, 2019 and used a market approach to calculate the fair value. The estimated fair value was determined based on the estimated or actual bids and offers of the Convertible Notes due 2019 in an over-the-counter market on June 30, 2019 (See “Note 9—Debt”).

On May 25, 2018, the Company issued $345,000 of Convertible Notes due 2023. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying value of the Convertible Notes due 2023 equaled $300,078 and $294,725, respectively, and represented the aggregate principal amount outstanding less the unamortized discount and debt issuance costs. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair value of the Convertible Notes due 2023 was $411,896 and $339,024, respectively. The Company considered the Convertible Notes due 2023 to be a Level II liability at June 30, 2019 and used a market approach to calculate the fair value. The estimated fair value was determined based on the estimated or actual bids and offers of the Convertible Notes due 2023 in an over-the-counter market on June 30, 2019 (See “Note 9—Debt”).

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there was $145,000 and $0, respectively, outstanding on the revolving credit facility under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2019, the outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility approximated fair value as the revolving credit facility bore interest at variable rates and we believe our

credit risk quality was consistent with when the debt originated. The Company considered the revolving credit facility to be a Level I liability as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (See “Note 9—Debt”).

We consider the recorded value of our other financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, to approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities at June 30, 2019 based upon the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.
