Equity securities without readily determinable fair values In the third quarter of 2019, the Company made a $250 million investment in Turo, a peer-to-peer car sharing marketplace. As part of its investment, the Company received a warrant that is net settleable at the Company's option and is recorded at fair value each reporting period with any change included in "Other income, net" in the accompany consolidated statement of operations. The warrant is measured using significant unobservable inputs and is classified in the fair value hierarchy table below as Level 3. The warrant is included in "Other non-current assets" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company had an investment in Pinterest, which was carried at fair value following the initial public offering of Pinterest in April 2019. Prior to this, the Company accounted for its investment in Pinterest as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value. The Company sold its remaining shares in Pinterest during the fourth quarter of 2019. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized a net gain of $20.5 million related to its investment in Pinterest, which is included in "Other income, net" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. The following table presents a summary of realized and unrealized gains and losses recorded in other income (expense), net, as adjustments to the carrying value of equity securities without readily determinable fair values held as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
The cumulative upward and downward adjustments (including impairments) to the carrying value of equity securities without readily determinable fair values held at December 31, 2019 were $19.9 million and $7.0 million, respectively. Realized and unrealized gains and losses for the Company's marketable equity security and investments without readily determinable fair values for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 are as follows:
Equity method investments In 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded other-than-temporary impairment charges on certain of its investments of $0.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively. These charges are included in "Other income (expense), net" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Cost method investments (prior to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-01) In 2017, the Company recorded $9.5 million of other-than-temporary impairment charges for certain of its investments as a result of our assessment of the near-term prospects and financial condition of the investees. This charge is included in "Other income (expense), net" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. On October 23, 2017, Match Group sold a cost method investment for net proceeds of $60.2 million.

Fair Value Measurements The following tables present the Company's financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
The following table presents the changes in the Company's financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):
Contingent consideration arrangements At December 31, 2019, the Company has one outstanding contingent consideration arrangement related to a business acquisition. The arrangement has a total maximum contingent payment of $45.0 million. At December 31, 2019, the gross fair value of this arrangement, before unamortized discount, is $12.5 million. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company paid $2.0 million to settle a contingent consideration arrangement that was outstanding at December 31, 2018. Generally, our contingent consideration arrangements are based upon financial performance and/or operating metric targets and the Company generally determines the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangements by using probability-weighted analyses to determine the amounts of the gross liability, and, if the arrangements are initially long-term in nature, applying a discount rate that appropriately captures the risks associated with the obligations to determine the net amount reflected in the consolidated financial statements. The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement at December 31, 2019 reflects a discount rate of 25%. The fair values of the contingent consideration arrangements at December 31, 2018 reflect discount rates ranging from 12% to 25%. The fair value of contingent consideration arrangements is sensitive to changes in the expected achievement of the applicable targets and changes in discount rates. The Company remeasures the fair value of the contingent consideration arrangements each reporting period, including the accretion of the discount, if applicable, and changes are recognized in "General and administrative expense" in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. The contingent consideration arrangement liability at December 31, 2019 includes a non-current portion of $6.9 million. The contingent consideration arrangement liability at December 31, 2018 includes a current portion of $2.0 million and a non-current portion of $26.6 million, respectively. The current and non-current portions of the contingent consideration liability are included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities,” respectively, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

_________________
At December 31, 2019 and 2018, the fair value of long-term debt is estimated using observable market prices or indices for similar liabilities, which are Level 2 inputs. At December 31, 2018, the Company considered the outstanding borrowings under the MTCH's $500 million revolving credit facility ("MTCH Credit Facility"), which has a variable interest rate, to have a fair value equal to its carrying value. The outstanding borrowings under the MTCH Credit Facility were repaid with a portion of the net proceeds from MTCH's $350 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.625% Senior Notes issued on February 15, 2019. See "Note 7—Long-Term Debt" for additional information on the repayment of the MTCH Credit Facility.
