Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities and Restricted Cash

As of June 30, 2018, the Company held $73.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and $479.5 million of available-for-sale debt securities which are reported at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Unrealized holding gains and losses are reported within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the statements of comprehensive loss. If a decline in the fair value of a marketable security below the Company’s cost basis is determined to be other than temporary, such marketable security is written down to its estimated fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the write-down is included in earnings as an impairment charge.

The Company regularly invests excess operating cash in deposits with major financial institutions, money market funds, notes issued by the U.S. government, as well as fixed income investments and U.S. bond funds, both of which can be readily purchased and sold using established markets. The Company believes that the market risk arising from its holdings of these financial instruments is mitigated as many of these securities are either government backed or of the highest credit rating. Investments that have original maturities greater than three months but less than one year are classified as current, while investments that have maturities greater than one year are classified as long-term.

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are classified as current unless mentioned otherwise below and consisted of the following:
