5. FAIR VALUE

Fair value is the estimated price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability. Inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value fall into three broad levels (Levels 1, 2, and 3) as follows:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2—Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, for the asset or liability or prices for similar assets and liabilities.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s estimates of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk).

Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The table below sets forth the Company’s financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring, monthly basis in accordance with ASC 820.

(1)Our equity investment in TuSimple is classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy as shares of TuSimple’s Class A common stock are traded on an Over the Counter (“OTC”) market beginning February 8, 2024 and the NASDAQ prior to that date. See Note 6, Investments, for additional information.

(2)Marketable securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as they are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active. See Note 6, Investments, for additional information.

The fair value of the Company’s debt was $183.4 million and $183.2 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The carrying value of the Company’s debt was $185.0 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The fair value of our debt was calculated using a fixed rate debt portfolio with similar terms and maturities, which is based on the borrowing rates available to us in the applicable period. This valuation used Level 2 inputs.

The recorded values of cash, trade accounts receivable, lease receivables, trade accounts payable, and amounts outstanding under revolving credit agreements approximate fair values.

As part of the acquisition of M&M on August 1, 2023, certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Refer to Note 2, Acquisitions, for further details.
