Our financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are certificates of deposit (“CD’s”), with maturities ranging from three months to two years which fall within valuation technique Level 2. The CD’s are classified as investments in current assets and noncurrent assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of October 2, 2011, the CD’s in current assets have a fair value of $9.3 million, and in noncurrent assets, the CD’s have a fair value of $6.1 million.

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents accounts approximates fair value, as maturities are three months or less. We did not have any financial liability instruments subject to recurring fair value measurements as of October 2, 2011.
