| Fair Value of Financial Instruments | 8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, funds held for clients, client funds obligation and long-term debt. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, funds held for clients and client funds obligation approximates fair value. See Note 6 “Long-Term Debt” for discussion of the fair value of our debt. Our corporate investments consist primarily of money market funds and demand deposit accounts and are classified as cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheets. As discussed in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”, we typically invest the funds held for clients in money market funds, demand deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and U.S. treasury securities. Short-term investments in instruments with an original maturity of less than three months are classified as cash and cash equivalents within funds held for clients in the consolidated balance sheets. Investments in instruments with an original maturity greater than three months are classified as available-for-sale securities and are also included within funds held for clients in the consolidated balance sheets. These available-for-sale securities are recognized at fair value, with the difference between the amortized cost and fair value of these available-for-sale securities recorded as unrealized net gains (losses) within comprehensive earnings (loss) in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income. See Note 7 “Corporate Investments and Funds Held for Clients” for additional information. The accounting standard for fair value measurements establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: • Level 1 – Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets • Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly or quoted prices that are not active • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data Included in the following tables are the Company’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:
