FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, provides guidance for defining, measuring, and disclosing fair value within an established framework and hierarchy. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The standard established a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value within the hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

As of December 29, 2012, and December 31, 2011, the assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as set forth in the table below. The "Recognized Loss" amounts in the table are accumulated totals since inception.

The Company's Level 1 assets consist of cash equivalents which are generally comprised of domestic money market funds invested in high quality, short-term liquid assets, and then foreign bank guaranteed certificates of deposit.

The Company's Level 2 assets consist of derivatives in the form of foreign currency forward contracts. The values were based on observable market inputs including forward and spot exchange rates for currencies. The contracts were marked-to-market with the resulting adjustments included in the "Other current assets" line on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the "Foreign exchange income/(expense)" line of the condensed consolidated statements of income. The contracts were initiated to reduce exchange rate volatility associated with both future required payments and possible contingency payments.

The Company's Level 3 liabilities consist of an acquisition-related contingent consideration. During the second quarter of 2011, the Company recorded $5.5 million (TL 8.5 million) of contingent consideration related to the second quarter 2011 acquisition of Impo. The fair value of $5.6 million (TL 10.0 million) as of December 29, 2012, was based on the income approach which involved analyzing future earnings projections, the probability of Impo achieving specified financial targets, and a discount factor of 15.0 percent. The Company recognized the additional accretion charge in the "Interest expense" line of the condensed consolidated statement of income. An additional impact of $0.7 million was attributed to foreign exchange translation. The contingent consideration is included in the "Accounts payable" line of the Company's consolidated balance sheet, as Impo met the performance criteria of the earn-out provision as of fourth quarter 2012. The amounts accrued are expected to be paid out during first quarter 2013.

As of December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis were as set forth in the table below. The "Recognized Loss" amounts included in the table are accumulated totals since inception.

The Company's Level 3 assets consist of held for sale assets. The Company classified its former Siloam Springs manufacturing facility as held for sale and recorded the impairment as a restructuring expense on property, plant, and equipment during the second quarter of 2010. The 2011 fair value reflected the sale price, less expected closing costs, at which the asset was under a letter of intent for sale that closed during the fourth quarter of 2012. The valuation process utilized to generate the original listing price on the asset involved an appraisal, broker market commentary, and observation of recent comparable sales and current comparable listings. A listing price was selected that placed the property near the median of such values based on price per square foot. Accordingly, no unobservable inputs were a significant factor in the list price. Subsequent to this original valuation process, as a result of the passage of time, the price was reduced sequentially for price discovery in order for the transaction to clear at the highest price possible. The Company was unaware of alternative uses for the property that would be in excess of the sale price in the letter of intent.
