U.S. government treasuries and U.S. government agency securities as of June 29, 2014 and March 30, 2014 do not include any U.S. government guaranteed bank issued paper. Corporate bonds include bank-issued securities that are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

The securities in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded in exchange markets or over-the-counter markets. Level 2 fixed income securities are priced using quoted market prices for similar instruments, non-binding market prices that are corroborated by observable market data.

In connection with the acquisition of Alvand Technologies in fiscal 2013, liability was recognized for the Company’s estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration on the acquisition date based on probability-based forecasted revenues, gross profits and attainment of product development milestones. These fair value measurements are based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement, which reflect the Company’s own assumptions concerning future revenues, gross profit and product development milestones of the acquired businesses in measuring fair value.

The following table summarizes the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the three months ended June 29, 2014:



(in thousands)	Estimated Fair Value
Balance as of March 30, 2014	$	2,140
Payment, net of fair value adjustments	(1,600		)
Release	(540		)
Balance as of June 29, 2014	$	—

All of the Company’s available-for-sale investments are subject to a periodic impairment review. Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary. The Company did not record any impairment charges related to its available-for-sale investments in the three months ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013.
