Note 11 - Non-Marketable Investments

At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the carrying value of the Company’s non-marketable investments, which were composed primarily of interests in technology-related private equity funds, was $0.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively, and is included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company’s investments are accounted for using the equity method as the investments are limited partnerships and the Company has an ownership interest in excess of 5%. Accordingly, the Company records its share of the investee’s operating results each period, which are included in gains on investments, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company recorded $2.5 million and $0.6 million in gains from its non-marketable investments for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2018, respectively, and gains were immaterial during 2019.

The Company uses the cumulative earnings approach to classify distributions received from equity method investments. During the year ended December 31, 2020, $4.3 million was distributed from the funds to the Company. This amount was included within other investing activity in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as it was considered a return on investment. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, no distributions were received from the funds.
