Investments, Debt and Equity Securities [Abstract] |
Investments | Investments Investments in equity securities We measure certain of our investments in equity securities at fair value on a recurring basis. Furthermore, we categorize these investments in equity securities according to the fair value hierarchy as defined in Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Mark-to-market fair value adjustments in these investments in equity securities are classified as unrealized (gain) loss on investments in equity securities in our condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. For certain other investments in equity securities that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, we measure such investments at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. The following table summarizes the components of our investments in equity securities:
| Investments in Equity Securities, Level 1 (1) |  | Investments in Equity Securities, Level 2 (2) |  | Subtotal |  | Investments in Equity Securities, All Others (3) (4) (5) |  | Investments in Equity Securities, Total

For additional information see Note 6, “Investments” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. (4)During the first quarter of 2021, we completed an investment in Svante Inc. (“Svante”) in the amount of $15.0 for under 10% of its capital stock on a fully diluted basis. This investment was measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. As of March 31, 2021, the value of the investment was $15.0. Svante offers companies in emissions-intensive industries a commercially viable way to capture large-scale CO2 emissions from existing infrastructure, either for safe storage or to be recycled for further industrial use in a closed loop. (5)During the first quarter of 2021, we completed an investment in Transform Materials LLC (“Transform Materials”) in the amount of $25.0 for approximately 5% of its equity. This investment was measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. As of March 31, 2021, the value of the investment was $25.0. Transform Materials is a sustainable chemical technology company that uses microwave plasma to convert natural gas into acetylene and hydrogen. Its highly selective, cost-effective, net-carbon-negative process converts the methane in natural gas into high-value products suitable for direct use or downstream reactions. Equity method accounting investments Our equity investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting include a 50% ownership interest in a joint venture with Hudson Products de Mexico S.A. de CV which totaled $2.8 at both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. This investment is operated and managed by our joint venture partner and as such, we do not have control over the joint venture and therefore it is not consolidated. Additionally, we have a 25% ownership interest in Liberty LNG, which was valued at $2.2 a nd $2.1 at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Our equity in earnings from these equity method accounting investments were not material for the periods presented.
