In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts that are reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from those estimates. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”). The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in US Dollars, which is the Company’s reporting currency.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements | 6 Months Ended |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company values its available-for-sale securities and certain liabilities based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In order to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs is used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below: Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs. Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in inactive markets or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated with observable market data. Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs to the extent possible. In addition, the Company considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value, which are not considered Level 1 items. Corporate bonds – Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities, all of which have counterparts with high credit ratings, are traded. Commercial paper – Value is based on yields currently available on comparable securities of issuers with similar credit ratings. Money market funds – Valued at the net asset value (“NAV”) of units of a collective fund. The NAV is used as a practical expedient to estimate fair value. This practical expedient is not used when it is determined to be probable that the fund will sell the investment for an amount different than the reported NAV. The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. The contractual maturities of investments classified as marketable securities are as follows: June 30, December 31, Due within 1 year $ 452,260 $ 439,155 Due after 1 year through 2 years 178,250 226,042 Total marketable securities $ 630,510 $ 665,197 The following table represents the amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, and fair market value of the Company’s marketable securities by significant investment category in addition to their fair value level at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the line items presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Of the total marketable securities held at fair value as of June 30, 2024, $139,444 was in a continuous unrealized loss position for 12 months or longer. The Company had no continuous unrealized loss positions in relation to marketable securities as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023 that were as a result of credit deterioration. For the periods presented the Company does not intend to nor will it be required to sell any securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases. For certain other financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, as well as other current liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate the fair value of such instruments due to the short maturity of these balances. |

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] | |
Stockholder's Equity | Stockholders’ Equity Common Stock The Company has and will issue shares of its common stock as a result of transactions in relation to warrant exercises, exchanges, and vesting of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Treasury Stock Historically, the Company's treasury stock consisted of forfeited Restricted Stock Awards (“RSAs”) that were legally issued shares held by the Company, and recorded at par value, as well as any shares repurchased under the Company’s share repurchase program that are not retired by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). As of June 30, 2024, all RSAs have been either vested or forfeited. The Company’s treasury stock can be utilized to settle equity-based compensation awards issued by the Company and is excluded from the calculation of the non-controlling interest ownership percentage. Share Repurchases During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased and retired 7,983,612 shares of its Class A Common Stock for $150,000 at an average price of $18.79. As of June 30, 2024, $75,424 remained available under the repurchase authorization. The Inflation Reduction Act created an excise tax of 1% on the fair market value of net stock repurchases made after December 31, 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded an accrual of none related to this tax within its condensed consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 1 6 for further information regarding the Inflation Reduction Act. Special and Quarterly Dividends On August 2, 2023, the Company announced that its Board adopted a dividend policy (the "Dividend Policy") of paying a quarterly cash dividend to holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. The amount of such quarterly dividends is subject to approval of the actual amount by the Board at the time of such dividend declaration. It is expected that the dividends will be funded by proportionate cash distributions by Alclear to all of its members as of the applicable record date, including holders of non-controlling interests in Alclear and the Company. The declaration of cash dividends in the future is subject to final determination each quarter by the Board based on a number of factors, including the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, financial position and capital requirements, as well as general business conditions, legal, tax and regulatory restrictions and other factors the Board deems relevant at the time it determines to declare such dividends. On February 15, 2024, the Company announced that its Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.09 per share, payable on March 5, 2024 to holders of record of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as of the close of business on February 26, 2024. The Company funded the dividend from proportionate cash distributions by Alclear to all of its members as of February 26, 2024, including holders of non-controlling interests in Alclear and the Company. On March 21, 2024, the Company announced the declaration of a special cash dividend in the amount of $0.32 per share payable on April 8, 2024 to holders of record of the Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as of the close of business on April 1, 2024. The Company funded the payment of the special cash dividend with cash held by the Company following its receipt of a pro rata cash distribution made by Alclear to all of its members, including the Company, together with cash held by the Company following its receipt of tax distributions made by Alclear. On May 7, 2024, the Company announced that its Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share, payable on June 18, 2024 to holders of record of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as of the close of business on June 10, 2024. The Company funded the dividend from proportionate cash distributions by Alclear to all of its members as of June 10, 2024, including holders of non-controlling interests in Alclear and the Company. To the extent the quarterly or special dividends exceed the Company's current and accumulated earnings and profits, a portion of such dividends may be deemed a return of capital gain to the holders of our Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as applicable. Non-Controlling Interest The non-controlling interest balance represents the economic interest in Alclear held by our co-founders, Caryn Seidman Becker and Kenneth Cornick (the “Co-Founders”), and members of Alclear. The following table summarizes the ownership of non-voting common units of Alclear (“Alclear Units”) as of June 30, 2024: Alclear Units Ownership Percentage Alclear Units held by Alclear post-reorganization members (other than the Co-Founders and Clear Secure, Inc.) 24,292,253 16.96 % Alclear Units held by the Co-Founders 25,796,690 18.01 % Total 50,088,943 34.97 % The non-controlling interest holders have the right to exchange Alclear Units, together with a corresponding number of shares of Class C Common Stock for Class A Common Stock or Class D Common Stock for Class B Common Stock. As such, exchanges by non-controlling interest holders will result in a change in ownership and reduce the amount recorded as non-controlling interest and increase Class A Common Stock or B Common Stock and additional paid-in-capital for the Company. Upon the issuance of shares Class A Common Stock or B Common Stock, the Company issues a proportionate number of Alclear Units in conjunction with the terms of the Reorganization. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, certain non-controlling interest holders exchanged their Alclear Units and corresponding shares of Class C Common Stock for shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock.

Incentive Plans | Incentive Plans 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan The Clear Secure, Inc 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan”) became effective on June 29, 2021 to provide grants of equity-based awards to the employees, consultants, and directors of the Company and its affiliates. The 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan authorized the issuance of up to 20,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock as of the date of the Reorganization. The 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan authorized the issuance of shares pursuant to the grant, settlement or exercise of RSUs, RSAs, stock options and other share-based awards. Beginning with the first business day of each calendar year beginning in 2022 through 2031, the number of shares available will increase in an amount up to 5% of the total number of common shares outstanding (assuming exchange and/or conversion of all classes of common shares into Class A Common Stock) as of the last day of the immediately preceding year or a lesser amount approved by the Board or its compensation committee, so long as the total share reserve available for future awards at the time is not more than 12% of common shares outstanding (assuming exchange and/or conversion of all classes of common shares into Class A Common Stock). For fiscal year 2023, the Compensation Committee of the Board approved no increase in the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which such increase would have been effective on the first business day of 2023. Restricted Stock Units RSUs are subject to both service-based and, in some cases, performance-based vesting conditions. RSUs will vest on a specified date, provided the applicable service (generally three years) and, if applicable, when certain performance conditions are probable of satisfaction. The RSUs with performance-based vesting conditions are subject to long-term revenue and cash-basis earnings performance hurdles. The Company determines the fair value of each RSU based on the grant date and records the expense over the vesting period or requisite service period on a straight-line basis and for performance-based vesting awards, whether they are probable or not. The following is a summary of activity related to the RSUs associated with compensation arrangements during the six months ended June 30, 2024: RSU’s Weighted- Unvested balance as of January 1, 2024 3,897,957 $ 24.85 Granted 1,590,725 18.19 Vested (702,938) 30.23 Forfeited (806,350) 23.24 Unvested balance as of June 30, 2024 3,979,394 $ 21.79 The following is a vesting schedule of the expected vesting period related to the unvested RSUs as of June 30, 2024: Unvested RSU’s Expected to vest within 1 year 1,391,812 Expected to vest between 1 to 2 years 1,500,612 Expected to vest between 2 to 3 years 1,086,970 Unvested balance as of June 30, 2024 3,979,394 Below is the compensation expense recognized related to the RSUs within the condensed consolidated statements of operations: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 Cost of direct salaries and benefits $ 154 $ 143 $ 280 $ 216 Research and development 2,411 5,443 5,964 10,393 Sales and marketing 255 132 488 31 General and administrative 4,375 2,010 8,139 6,622 Total $ 7,195 $ 7,728 $ 14,871 $ 17,262 As of June 30, 2024, estimated unrecognized expense for RSUs that are probable of vesting was $60,123 with such expense to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.19 years. Founder PSUs During June 2021, the Company established a long-term incentive compensation plan for the Co-Founders, which consists of performance restricted stock-unit awards (the “Founder PSUs”), that will be settled in shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, subject to the satisfaction of both service and market based vesting conditions. The grant date fair value for the Founder PSUs was determined by a Monte Carlo simulation and discounted by the risk-free rate on the grant date and an expected volatility of 45%. The Founder PSUs are estimated to vest over a five year period, based on the achievement of specified price hurdles of the Company’s Class A Common Stock. The specified price hurdles of the Company’s Class A Common Stock will be measured on the volume-weighted average price per share for the trailing days during any 180 day period that ends within the applicable measurement period. In June 2021, the Company granted 4,208,617 Founder PSUs at a weighted average grant date fair value of $16.54. The Company records the expense related to these awards within general and administrative in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2024, estimated unrecognized expense for Founder PSUs was $4,076 with such expense to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 0.54 years. Below is a summary of total compensation expense recorded in relation to the Company’s incentive plans within the condensed consolidated statements of operations: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 RSAs $ — $ 3 $ — $ 10 RSUs 7,195 7,728 14,871 17,262 Founder PSUs 3,035 6,557 6,024 13,042 Total $ 10,230 $ 14,288 $ 20,895 $ 30,314 Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 Cost of direct salaries and benefits $ 154 $ 143 $ 280 $ 216 Research and development 2,411 5,445 5,964 10,397 Sales and marketing 256 132 488 31 General and administrative 7,409 8,568 14,163 19,670 Total $ 10,230 $ 14,288 $ 20,895 $ 30,314 |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes As a result of the IPO and Reorganization, the Company became the sole managing member of Alclear, which is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. As a partnership, Alclear is generally not subject to U.S. federal and most state and local income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by Alclear is passed through to and included in the taxable income or loss of its members, including us, on a pro rata basis. The Company is subject to federal income taxes in the U.S. and its territories, in addition to state and local income taxes with respect to our allocable share of any taxable income or loss of Alclear, as well as any stand-alone income or loss generated by the Company. The Company is also subject to income taxes in Israel, Argentina, and Mexico. The Company reported a tax expense of $409 on a pretax income of $39,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to a tax expense of $211 on a pretax income of $8,245 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This resulted in an effective tax rate of 1.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to 2.6% percent for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The Company reported a tax expense of $2,374 on a pretax income of $73,053 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to a tax expense of $92 on a pretax loss of $147 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This resulted in an effective tax rate of 3.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to (62.6%) for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The Company's effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to the following: (1) the impact of Alclear being a partnership and allocating its taxable results to its non-controlling members, (2) movement in valuation allowance, and (3) the impact of U.S. federal and state taxes in excess of applicable tax attributes (e.g., net operating losses and general business tax credits). The Company paid $2,620 and $2,750, respectively, in estimated income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. The Company did not have significant unrecognized tax benefits and interest and penalties as of June 30, 2024. The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and its territories, Israel, Argentina, and Mexico. The statute of limitations for adjustments to our historic tax obligations will vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The tax years for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes open for examination are for the years ending December 31, 2018 and forward. The tax years for foreign jurisdictions open for examination are for the years ending December 31, 2019 and forward. Recent U.S. Tax Legislation On August 16, 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act. The Inflation Reduction Act creates a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax on profit of corporations whose average annual adjusted financial statement income for any consecutive three-tax-year period preceding the tax year exceeds $1 billion and is effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. This provision did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Additionally, the Inflation Reduction Act creates an excise tax of 1% on the fair market value of net stock repurchases made after December 31, 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 7,983,612 shares of its Class A Common Stock. However, the Company did not record an excise tax as of June 30, 2024 because stock issuances were in excess of repurchases. Tax Receivable Agreement As stated in Note 1, in connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the TRA, which generally provides for payment by the Company to the remaining members of Alclear of 85% of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax and franchise tax that Clear Secure, Inc. actually realizes or is deemed to realize as a result of (i) any increase in tax basis in Alclear’s assets resulting from (a) exchanges by Alclear members (or their transferees or other assignees) of Alclear Units (along with the corresponding shares of our Class C Common Stock or Class D Common Stock, as applicable) for shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as applicable, and purchases of Alclear Units and corresponding shares of Class C Common Stock or Class D Common Stock, as the case may be, from the Alclear members (or their transferees or other assignees) or (b) payments under the TRA, and (ii) tax benefits related to imputed interest deemed arising as a result of payments made under the TRA. The Company will retain the benefit of the remaining 15% of these net cash savings. The TRA liability is calculated by determining the tax basis subject to TRA (“tax basis”) and applying a blended tax rate to the basis differences and calculating the iterative impact. The blended tax rate consists of the U.S. federal income tax rate and an assumed combined state and local income tax rate driven by the apportionment factors applicable to each state. Subsequent changes to the measurement of the TRA liability are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as a component of other income (expense), net. The Company expects to obtain an increase in the share of the tax basis of its share of the assets of Alclear when Alclear Units are redeemed or exchanged by Alclear Members and other qualifying transactions. This increase in tax basis may have the effect of reducing the amounts that the Company would otherwise pay in the future to various tax authorities. The increase in tax basis may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company issued 7,942,661 shares of Class A Common Stock to certain non-controlling interest holders who exchanged their Alclear Units. Refer to Note 14 for further details. These exchanges resulted in a tax basis increase subject to the provisions of the TRA. The recognition of the Company’s liability under the tax receivable agreement mirrors the recognition related to its deferred tax assets. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has not recognized the deferred tax asset for the step-up in tax basis, as the asset is not more-likely-than-not to be realized. Additionally, as of June 30, 2024, the Company has determined the TRA liability is not probable and therefore has not recorded a tax receivable liability that, if recorded, would be approximately $129,057. Tax Distributions The members of Alclear, including Clear Secure, Inc., incur U.S. federal, state and local income taxes on their share of any taxable income of Alclear. The Operating Agreement provides for pro rata cash distributions (“tax distributions”) to the holders of the Alclear Units in an amount generally calculated to provide each member of Alclear with sufficient cash to cover its tax liability in respect of the taxable income of Alclear allocable to them. In general, these tax distributions are computed based on Alclear’s estimated taxable income, multiplied by an assumed tax rate as set forth in the Operating Agreement. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, Alclear paid tax distributions totaling $24,100 to holders of Alclear Units other than the Company, and recorded a liability of $11,925 to holders of Alclear Unit s other than other than the Company. |

Debt | Debt In March 2020, the Company entered into a credit agreement for a three-year $50,000 revolving credit facility, with a group of lenders. In April 2021, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement that increased the commitments under the revolving credit facility to $100,000, which extended the maturity date to March 31, 2024. The revolving credit facility includes a letter of credit sub-facility. In June 2023, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement to transition from London Interbank Offered Rate to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as our benchmark interest rate and to extend the maturity date to June 28, 2026. The line of credit has not been drawn against as of June 30, 2024. Prepaid loan fees related to this facility are capitalized and amortized over the remaining term of the credit agreement. The balance expected to be amortized within twelve months from the balance sheet date is presented within Prepaid and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, while the long term portion is presented within Other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company incurred $396 of debt issuance costs in connection to Amendment No.2 to the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the balance of these loan fees was $264 and $419, respectively. The Credit Agreement contains customary terms and conditions, including limitations on consolidations, mergers, indebtedness, and certain payments, as well as a financial covenant relating to leverage. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement generally will bear a floating interest rate per year and will also include interest based on the greater of the prime rate, SOFR, or New York Federal Reserve Bank (NYFRB) rate, plus an applicable margin for specific interest periods. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had a remaining borrowing capacity of $68,334, net of standby letters of credit, and had no outstanding debt obligations. |

To the extent the quarterly dividend exceeds the Company's current and accumulated earnings and profits, a portion of such dividend may be deemed a return of capital gain to the holders of our Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock, as applicable. Share Repurchases During the third quarter of 2024, Delta Air Lines exchanged 4,000,000 of their Alclear Units and corresponding shares of Class C Common Stock for shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, and the Company repurchased and retired the shares of Class A Common Stock. On August 5, 2024, the Company announced that its Board authorized a $100,000 increase to its existing Class A Common Stock share repurchase program, resulting in an aggregate remaining authorization of approximately $100,000, after giving effect to the repurchase from Delta Air Lines. Under the repurchase program, the Company may purchase shares of its Class A Common Stock on a discretionary basis from time to time through open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, or other means, including through Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will be determined by management depending on a variety of factors, including stock price, trading volume, market conditions, and other general business considerations. The repurchase program has no expiration date and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time. |

Basis of Accounting | These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts that are reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from those estimates. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”). The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in US Dollars, which is the Company’s reporting currency. |
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements The Company adopted all applicable standards effective as of December 31, 2023, within these condensed consolidated financial statements. There was no material impact as a result. There are no newly issued standards since December 31, 2023 that are applicable to the Company. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company values its available-for-sale securities and certain liabilities based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In order to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs is used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below: Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs. Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in inactive markets or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated with observable market data. Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs to the extent possible. In addition, the Company considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value. The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value, which are not considered Level 1 items. Corporate bonds – Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities, all of which have counterparts with high credit ratings, are traded. Commercial paper – Value is based on yields currently available on comparable securities of issuers with similar credit ratings. Money market funds – Valued at the net asset value (“NAV”) of units of a collective fund. The NAV is used as a practical expedient to estimate fair value. This practical expedient is not used when it is determined to be probable that the fund will sell the investment for an amount different than the reported NAV. The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. |
