Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Authoritative guidance on fair value measurements defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and stipulates the related disclosure requirements. The Company follows a three-level hierarchy, under which the fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, moving from quoted prices in active markets in (Level 1) to unobservable inputs in (Level 3).
The carrying amounts of the Company’s debt as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $121.0 million and $160.7 million, respectively, compared to its fair values of $121.0 million and $158.2 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The fair value of the debt was calculated using a readily observable price (Level 1).
Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments. Due to their highly liquid nature, the amount of the Company’s other financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts and unbilled receivables, notes receivable, accounts payable, and accrued multi-client data library royalties, represent their approximate fair value.
