As reported in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2015, the Corporation held a minority investment in the common stock of a privately held company which was classified as available for sale and accounted for under the cost method due to the Corporation’s inability to exercise significant influence over the investee’s operating and financial policies and the absence of a readily determinable fair value for its investment. At February 28, 2015, the carrying value of this investment was zero as a result of a cash distribution in 2014 that included a return of capital. During the current year first quarter, the investee successfully completed an initial public offering of its common stock and thereby established a readily determinable fair value for the Corporation’s previously nonmarketable investment. In accordance with ASC Topic 320, “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities,” the investment is now reported at fair value and is included in “Other assets” on the Corporation’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. See Note 14 for further information. As a result of the initial fair value measurement at May 29, 2015 and subsequent revaluation at the end of the second quarter, an unrealized gain, net of tax, of $34.5 million was recognized in other comprehensive income during the six months ended August 28, 2015.
