FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2020

The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy, approximate carrying value due to their short maturities.

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, approximates its carrying value, as it is variable rate debt and the terms are comparable to market terms as of the balance sheet dates.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain financial liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. The following table summarizes the valuation of those liabilities as of the dates presented (in millions):


	Fair Value as of March 31, 2020														Fair Value as of December 31, 2019
Liabilities:	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Interest rate swap	$	—	$	12.8	$	—	$	12.8	$	—	$	6.6	$	—	$	6.6
Contingent consideration obligations ⁽¹⁾	—		—		2.0		2.0		—		—		2.0		2.0

(1) In connection with the Company’s acquisition of FHI LLC (“Fully”) in August 2019, the Company is contingently liable to make additional payments in the form of consideration based upon the achievement of certain performance targets. The maximum amount of contingent consideration that could be earned through 2023 as of March 31, 2020 is $15.0 million (see Note 4 to the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information on the Fully acquisition). As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations was reflected as a component of Other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Interest Rate Swap

The fair value of the interest rate swap is based on observable prices as quoted for receiving the variable one-month LIBOR and paying fixed interest rates and therefore is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company did not have any non-recurring fair value measurements during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
