FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Fair value measurement standards apply to certain financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (each reporting period). For the Company, these financial assets and liabilities include its derivative instruments and contingent consideration. The Company does not have any nonfinancial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company is exposed to global market risks, including the effect of changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, and uses derivatives to manage these exposures that occur in the normal course of business. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. All derivatives are recorded at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following tables provide information regarding assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands): Fair Value Quoted Significant Significant April 2, 2021 Assets: Foreign currency contracts $ 28 $ — $ 28 $ — Liabilities: Foreign currency contracts 152 — 152 — Liabilities: Interest rate swap 5,726 — 5,726 — Liabilities: Contingent consideration 2,281 — — 2,281 December 31, 2020 Assets: Foreign currency contracts $ 2,070 $ — $ 2,070 $ — Liabilities: Interest rate swap 7,026 — 7,026 — Liabilities: Contingent consideration 3,900 — — 3,900 Interest Rate Swaps The Company periodically enters into interest rate swap agreements in order to reduce the cash flow risk caused by interest rate changes on its outstanding floating rate borrowings.

The variable rate received from the swap agreements and the variable rate paid on the outstanding debt will have the same rate of interest, excluding the credit spread, and will reset and pay interest on the same date.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued) The following table provides quantitative information associated with the fair value measurement of the Company’s liabilities for contingent consideration: April 2, 2021 Contingency Type Maximum Payout (undiscounted) Fair Value Valuation Technique Unobservable Inputs Weighted Average or Range Revenue-based payments $ 6,750 $ 2,281 Monte Carlo Revenue volatility 35.0 % Discount rate 4.0 % Projected year(s) of payment 2022-2024 December 31, 2020 Contingency Type Maximum Payout (undiscounted) Fair Value Valuation Technique Unobservable Inputs Weighted Average or Range Revenue-based payments $ 9,000 $ 3,900 Monte Carlo Revenue volatility 35.0 % Discount rate 4.0 % Projected year(s) of payment 2021-2024 During the first quarter of 2020, the Company acquired a set of similar identifiable intangible assets relating to a license to use technology within its Non-Medical segment. At the date of acquisition, the Company estimated the original fair value of the contingent consideration to be $1.0 million, which was paid during 2020 upon achievement of the applicable milestones. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis Fair value standards also apply to certain assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items. Borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility, TLA Facility and TLB Facility accrue interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index, selected at the Company’s option, plus an applicable margin. The carrying amount of this floating rate debt approximates fair value based upon the respective interest rates adjusting with market rate adjustments. Equity Investments The Company holds long-term, strategic investments in companies to promote business and strategic objectives. These investments are included in Other long-term assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Non-marketable equity securities are equity securities without readily determinable fair value. The Company has elected the practicability exception to use an alternative approach that measures the securities at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from qualifying observable price changes. If an impairment is recognized on the Company’s non-marketable equity securities during the period, these assets are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy based on the nature of the fair value inputs. Equity investments comprise the following (in thousands): April 2, December 31, Equity method investment $ 20,135 $ 21,470 Non-marketable equity securities 5,723 5,723 Total equity investments $ 25,858 $ 27,193 (13.)
