Fair Value Measurements

Note 17 — Fair Value Measurements

Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other current receivables as well as accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The following table sets forth our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Contingent consideration liability related to the Alliance acquisition (Note 3) is measured at fair value using Level 3 unobservable inputs at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of the estimated contingent consideration is determined based on our evaluation of the probability and amount of earn-out that may be achieved based on expected future performance of Helix Alliance. The Monte Carlo simulation model is used to calculate the estimated earn-out payment, which is then discounted to present value based on the expected payment date of the contingent consideration. The changes in the fair value of contingent consideration are as follows (in thousands):


		2023
Balance at January 1,		$	42,754
Change in fair value			31,319
Balance at September 30,		$	74,073

The principal amount and estimated fair value of our long-term debt are as follows (in thousands):


		September 30, 2023						December 31, 2022
		Principal			Fair			Principal			Fair
		Amount ⁽¹⁾			Value ⁽²⁾			Amount ⁽¹⁾			Value ⁽²⁾
2023 Notes (matured September 2023)		$	—		$	—		$	30,000		$	31,149
2026 Notes (mature February 2026)			200,000			340,000			200,000			277,014
MARAD Debt (matures February 2027)			32,580			32,151			40,913			40,940
Total debt		$	232,580		$	372,151		$	270,913		$	349,103

(1)	Principal amount includes current maturities and excludes any related unamortized debt issuance costs. See Note 6 for additional disclosures on our long-term debt.

(2)

The estimated fair value of the 2023 Notes, the 2026 Notes and the MARAD Debt was determined using Level 2 fair value inputs under the market approach, which was determined using a third-party evaluation of the remaining average life and outstanding principal balance of the indebtedness as compared to other obligations in the marketplace with similar terms.
