(a)We elected to account for the Exchangeable Notes and Convertible Notes using the fair value option. The Exchangeable Notes and the Convertible Notes are the obligations of Sirius XM Holdings. Sirius XM is not an obligor or guarantor of ether the Exchangeable Notes of the Convertible Notes. Changes in the fair value of the Exchangeable Notes and Convertible Notes recognized in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations are primarily due to market factors primarily driven by changes in the fair value of the underlying shares into which the debt is exchangeable or convertible. We isolate the portion of the unrealized gain (loss) attributable to changes in the instrument specific credit risk and recognizes such amount in other comprehensive earnings (loss). The change in the fair value of the Exchangeable Notes and Convertible Notes attributable to changes in the instrument specific credit risk was a loss of $16 and a loss of $15 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and a loss of $30 and a loss of $27 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized $42 of previously unrecognized gains related to the retirement of a portion of Liberty Media's 1.375% Cash Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 and Liberty Media's 2.125% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2048, which was recognized through Other income, net in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations. There was no retirement of debt measured at fair value during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The cumulative change since issuance was a loss of $99 as of September 30, 2024, net of the recognition of previously unrecognized gains and losses.
