Fair Value Measurements

9. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are estimated based on valuation techniques and inputs categorized as follows:

● Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

● Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

● Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions

The following tables present the components and classification of our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

	June 30, 2020
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets (Liabilities)
Non-qualified deferred compensation assets	$	73,065	$	—	$	—
Non-qualified deferred compensation liabilities		(72,869)		—		—
Interest rate swap		—		(5,085)		—
Acquisition-related deferred consideration		—		(53,999)		—
Acquisition-related contingent consideration and compensation liabilities		—		—		(7,461)

	December 31, 2019
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets (Liabilities)
Non-qualified deferred compensation assets	$	77,228	$	—	$	—
Non-qualified deferred compensation liabilities		(76,255)		—		—
Acquisition-related deferred consideration		—		(53,933)		—
Acquisition-related contingent consideration and compensation liabilities		—		—		(13,218)

The fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration and compensation liabilities was determined utilizing a Monte Carlo model based on estimated future revenues, margins and volatility factors, among other variables and estimates and has no minimum or maximum payment. The undiscounted range of outcomes per the Monte Carlo model was $ 0 to $ 35.6 million. Results could change materially if different estimates and assumptions were used. The following table presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of the fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration and compensation liabilities, categorized as Level 3 (in thousands):

Balance, December 31, 2019	$	13,218
Change in fair value		(5,757)
Balance, June 30, 2020	$	7,461

The significant change in the fair value of the contingent consideration primarily stemmed from the delay of future new restaurant openings caused by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the estimated cash flows used in the valuation.

The fair values of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, income taxes receivable, other receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, income taxes payable and other accrued expenses approximate their carrying amounts due to their short duration.
