Investments in marketable securities classified as available-for-sale securities are made based on the Company’s investment policy, which restricts the types of investments that can be made. As of January 31, 2015 and April 30, 2014, marketable securities classified as available-for-sale consist of corporate bonds for which market prices for similar assets are readily available. As of January 31, 2015, available-for-sale marketable securities have remaining maturities ranging from a month to a year. During the three and nine months ended January 31, 2015, the Company received $1.0 million and $3.0 million, respectively, in proceeds from maturities of available-for-sale marketable securities. During the nine months ended January 31, 2014, the Company received $33.3 million in proceeds from sales/maturities of available-for-sale marketable securities. During the three months ended January 31, 2014 there were no sales/maturities of available-for-sale marketable securities. Investments in marketable securities classified as trading are based upon investment selections the employee elects from a pre-determined set of securities in the ECAP and the Company invests in marketable securities to mirror these elections. As of January 31, 2015 and April 30, 2014, the Company’s investments in marketable securities classified as trading consist of mutual funds for which market prices are readily available.

As of January 31, 2015 and April 30, 2014, the Company’s marketable securities classified as trading were $133.7 million (gross unrealized gains of $4.8 million and gross unrealized losses of $0.3 million) and $116.2 million (gross unrealized gains of $9.2 million and $0.7 million of gross unrealized losses), respectively.
