The fair values of the Company’s money market investments are based on the daily market price for identical assets in active markets. The fair value of the Company's split-dollar life insurance policies are the cash surrender value based on the fair value of underlying investment.
The changes in the fair value of the Company's commodity forwards recorded at fair value, which are Level 3 financial liabilities, are reflected within Other operating (income) expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company had no transfers into or out of Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy for any of the periods presented.

About Fair Value Disclosures

Fair value disclosures classify all assets and liabilities measured at fair value into a three-level hierarchy: Level 1 (quoted market prices), Level 2 (observable inputs like yield curves), and Level 3 (unobservable inputs requiring management estimates). The proportion of Level 3 assets directly reflects how much of the balance sheet depends on internal models rather than market evidence.

Key signals: a growing Level 3 balance relative to total fair-value assets increases valuation uncertainty and earnings volatility risk. Watch for transfers between levels — assets moving from Level 2 to Level 3 often signal deteriorating market liquidity. Unrealized gains and losses on Level 3 positions flow through earnings or other comprehensive income, so large swings deserve scrutiny. For financial institutions, examine the sensitivity disclosures that show how Level 3 valuations change under alternative assumptions. Compare the fair value of debt against its carrying amount to gauge hidden leverage.
