Note 4 — Non-Marketable Investments

At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the carrying value of the Company’s non-marketable investments, which were composed primarily of interests in technology-related private equity funds, was $4.3 million and $5.7 million, respectively, and is included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

One of the Company’s investments, with a book value of $0.9 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, is being accounted for using the cost method and, accordingly, is valued at cost unless an other-than-temporary impairment in its value occurs. The other investments are being accounted for using the equity method as the investments are limited partnerships and the Company has an ownership interest in excess of 5% and, accordingly, the Company records its share of the investee’s operating results each period. The Company recorded a gain (loss) from its non-marketable investments of $0.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2013 and $0.1 million and $(0.1) million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which is included in gains (losses) on investments, net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Gains from investments were insignificant during the three months ended June 30, 2014. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, gross distributions of $1.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, were received from the funds.
