AVAILABLE FOR SALE SECURITIES
AVAILABLE FOR SALE SECURITIES
During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we purchased 2.5 million shares of Altisource Residential Corporation (“Residential”) common stock for $29.4 million. Between April 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016, we purchased 1.6 million shares of Residential common stock for $18.8 million. These investments are classified as available for sale and reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value at the respective balance sheet dates ($63.2 million as of March 31, 2017 and $45.8 million as of December 31, 2016). Unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities are reflected in other comprehensive income, unless there is an impairment that is other than temporary. In the event that a decline in market value is other than temporary, we would record a charge to earnings and a new cost basis in the investment would be established. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we earned dividends of $0.6 million related to this investment (no comparative amount in 2016).
