Fair value measurements

3. Fair value measurements

The carrying amounts of the Company’s current financial assets and current financial liabilities are considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
 

The accounting guidance defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
 

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets.
 

Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly.
 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
 

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had $50.4 million and $0, respectively, invested in U.S. Government and U.S. Treasury money market funds which are recorded as cash equivalents and represent a Level 1 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

None of the Company’s non-financial assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis. No transfers between levels have occurred during the periods presented.
