Fair Value | Fair Value The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Level 1 — Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 — Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 3 — Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. The tables below, set forth by level, presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, excluding accrued interest components that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of August 1, 2020 and November 2, 2019. The tables exclude cash on hand and assets and liabilities that are measured at historical cost or any basis other than fair value. As of August 1, 2020 and November 2, 2019, the Company held $144.8 million and $231.4 million, respectively, of cash and held-to-maturity investments that were excluded from the tables below.

November 2, 2019 Fair Value measurement at Reporting Date using: Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Total Assets Cash equivalents: Available-for-sale: Government and institutional money market funds $ 416,890 $ — $ 416,890 Other assets: Deferred compensation investments 48,302 — 48,302 Total assets measured at fair value $ 465,192 $ — $ 465,192 Liabilities Interest rate derivatives $ — $ 138,798 $ 138,798 Total liabilities measured at fair value $ — $ 138,798 $ 138,798 The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments: Cash equivalents — These investments are adjusted to fair value based on quoted market prices or are determined using a yield curve model based on current market rates. Deferred compensation plan investments — The fair value of these mutual fund, money market fund and equity investments are based on quoted market prices. Interest rate derivatives — The fair value of the interest rate derivatives is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the contractual terms of the derivative. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts — The estimated fair value of forward foreign currency exchange contracts, which includes derivatives that are accounted for as cash flow hedges and those that are not designated as cash flow hedges, is based on the estimated amount the Company would receive if it sold these agreements at the reporting date taking into consideration current interest rates as well as the creditworthiness of the counterparty for assets and the Company’s creditworthiness for liabilities. The fair value of these instruments is based upon valuation models using current market information such as strike price, spot rate, maturity date and volatility. Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Held for sale assets — The fair value of assets held for sale is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement, and is determined based on the use of appraisals and input from market participants. Debt — The table below presents the estimated fair value of certain financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The carrying amounts of the term loan approximates fair value. The term loan is classified as a Level 2 measurement according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of the senior unsecured notes are obtained from broker prices and are classified as Level 1 measurements according to the fair value hierarchy.
