Marketable Securities

Our portfolio of marketable securities is comprised of equity securities that are presented on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value.  On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2016-01, which requires changes in the fair value of our marketable securities to be recorded in current period earnings. Previously, changes in the fair value of marketable securities were recognized in "accumulated other comprehensive income" on our consolidated balance sheets. As a result, on January 1, 2018 we recorded a decrease to beginning accumulated deficit of $111,225,000 to recognize the unrealized gains previously recorded in “accumulated other comprehensive income” on our consolidated balance sheets. Subsequent changes in the fair value of our marketable securities will be recorded to “interest and other investment (loss) income, net” on our consolidated income statements.

Below is a summary of our marketable securities portfolio as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
