Strategic Investments Strategic Investments
We hold strategic investments primarily in privately held companies, which consist of equity securities, and to a lesser extent, debt securities. These strategic investments are primarily recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The estimation of fair value for these privately held strategic investments requires the use of significant unobservable inputs, such as the issuance of new equity by the company, and as a result, we deem these assets as Level 3 financial instruments within the fair value measurement framework.
The following table summarizes our strategic investments as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
