Impairments and Unrealized Gains and Losses on Marketable Securities

We did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairment losses in our consolidated statements of operations related to our marketable securities during 2019, 2018 or 2017. We considered various factors, including the length of time that each security was in an unrealized loss position and our ability and intent to hold these securities until recovery of their amortized cost basis occurs. As of December 31, 2019, we have no material losses in an unrealized loss position for more than one year. Future events may occur, or additional information may become available, which may cause us to identify credit losses where we do not expect to receive cash flows sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis of a security and may necessitate the recording of future realized losses on securities in our portfolio. Significant losses in the estimated fair values of our marketable securities could have a material adverse effect on our earnings in future periods.
