There were 151 and 134 investments in an unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 we did not record any other-than-temporary impairment charges on our available-for-sale securities. Based upon our quarterly impairment review, we determined that the unrealized losses were not attributed to credit risk, but were primarily associated with changes in interest rates. Based on the scheduled maturities of our investments and our determination that it was more likely than not that we will hold these investments for a period of time sufficient for a recovery of our cost basis, we concluded that the unrealized losses in our investment securities were not other-than-temporary.

The fair value of cash equivalents and investments by contractual maturity were as follows (in thousands):



	September 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Maturing in one year or less	$	635,208	$	377,155
