We classify our debt securities as available-for-sale at the time of purchase and reevaluate such classification as of each balance sheet date. We consider all debt securities as funds available for use in current operations, including those with maturity dates beyond one year, and therefore classify these securities as current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Debt securities included in Marketable securities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets consist of securities with original maturities at the time of purchase greater than three months, and the remaining securities are included in Cash and cash equivalents.
As of July 31, 2023, and January 31, 2023, the fair value of debt securities in an unrealized loss position was $4.1 billion and $3.1 billion, respectively, the majority of which had been in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than 12 months. We did not recognize any credit or non-credit related losses related to our debt securities during the periods presented.
We sold $6 million and $18 million of debt securities during the three and six months ended July 31, 2023, respectively. We sold $28 million of debt securities during the three and six months ended July 31, 2022. The realized gains and losses from the sales were immaterial.

Non-Marketable Equity Investments Measured Using the Measurement Alternative
Non-marketable equity investments measured using the measurement alternative include investments in privately held companies without readily determinable fair values in which we do not own a controlling interest or exercise significant influence. These investments are recorded at cost and are adjusted for observable transactions for same or similar securities of the same issuer or impairment events. The carrying values for our non-marketable equity investments are summarized below (in thousands):
July 31, 2023January 31, 2023
Total initial cost$218,833 $206,833 
Cumulative net unrealized gains (losses)42,673 55,089 
Carrying value$261,506 $261,922 
During the three months ended July 31, 2023, we recorded impairment losses of $10 million to the carrying value of non-marketable equity investments. During the three months ended July 31, 2022, we recorded upward adjustments to the carrying value of non-marketable equity investments of $3 million and no material impairment losses.
During the six months ended July 31, 2023, we recorded impairment losses of $12 million to the carrying value of non-marketable equity investments. During the six months ended July 31, 2022, we recorded upward adjustments to the carrying value of non-marketable equity investments of $6 million and impairment losses of $14 million.
Marketable Equity Investments
