Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements
At December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2019, the carrying amounts of cash, certain cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities, receivables, drafts and accounts payable, short-term borrowings and other current liabilities approximated their estimated fair values because of the short maturity of these financial instruments.
The fair value of the Company’s commercial paper was determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical liabilities, which are considered Level 1 inputs.
The Company’s long-term debt is carried at amortized cost. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of these liabilities were $7.7 billion and $8.2 billion at December 31, 2019, and $7.6 billion and $7.9 billion at March 31, 2019. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was determined using quoted market prices in a less active market and other observable inputs from available market information, which are considered to be Level 2 inputs, and may not be representative of actual values that could have been realized or that will be realized in the future.
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2019 included investments in money market funds of $676 million and $1.2 billion, which are reported at fair value. The fair value of money market funds was determined by using quoted prices for identical investments in active markets, which are considered to be Level 1 inputs under the fair value measurements and disclosure guidance. The carrying value of all other cash equivalents approximates their fair value due to their relatively short-term nature.
Fair values of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts were determined using observable inputs from available market information. Fair values of the Company’s cross-currency swaps were determined using quoted foreign currency exchange rates and other observable inputs from available market information. These inputs are considered Level 2 under the fair value measurements and disclosure guidance and may not be representative of actual values that could have been realized or that will be realized in the future. Refer to Financial Note 14, “Hedging Activities,” for fair value and other information on the Company’s foreign currency derivatives including foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency swaps.
There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
At December 31, 2019, assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis included long-lived assets for the Company’s European Pharmaceutical Solutions segment and the Rexall Health business within Other. Refer to Financial Note 4, “Restructuring, Impairment and Related Charges” for more information.
At March 31, 2019, assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis primarily consisted of goodwill and long-lived assets for the Company’s European Pharmaceutical Solutions segment.
Goodwill
Fair value assessments of the reporting unit and the reporting unit's net assets, which are performed for goodwill impairment tests, are considered a Level 3 measurement due to the significance of unobservable inputs developed using company-specific information. The Company considered a market approach as well as an income approach using the discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model to determine the fair value of the reporting unit.
Long-lived Assets
The Company utilizes multiple approaches including the DCF model and market approaches for estimating the fair value of intangible assets. The future cash flows used in the analysis are based on internal cash flow projections from its long-range plans and include significant assumptions by management. Accordingly, the fair value assessment of the long-lived assets is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement.
The Company measures certain long-lived and intangible assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when events occur that indicate an asset group may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset group is not recoverable, an impairment charge is recorded to reduce the carrying amount by the excess over its fair value.
There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2019.
