(1)Market valuation gains (losses) on Other investments accounted for under the fair value option are recorded in Investment fair value changes, net. All other market valuation gains (losses) on Other investments are recorded in Other income, etc. Strategic Investments At September 30, 2024, we have investments in private companies, including investments through our RWT Horizons venture investment platform, with a total carrying value of $69 million. Depending on the terms of the investments, we may account for these investments under the fair value option or as non-marketable equity securities under the equity method of accounting or the measurement alternative available for such securities under US GAAP. Refer to Note 3 and Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for additional information regarding these investments. In the second quarter of 2023, we established a joint venture with an institutional investment manager to invest in residential investor bridge loans originated by our CoreVest subsidiary. At September 30, 2024, the carrying value of our investment in the joint venture was $6 million. We account for our investment in the joint venture under the equity method of accounting as we have a 20% non-controlling interest, but are deemed to be able to exert significant influence over the affairs of the joint venture. We adjust the carrying value of our equity method investment for our share of earnings or losses, dividends or return of capital on a quarterly basis. For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized net equity method earnings of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, through Other income, net in our Consolidated statements of income. In the first quarter of 2024, we established a joint venture with another institutional investment manager to invest in residential investor bridge and term loans originated by us. At September 30, 2024, the carrying value of our investment in the joint venture was $16 million. We account for our investment in the joint venture under the equity method of accounting as we have a minority non-controlling interest approximating 20% across both Redwood's direct equity capital contribution to joint venture entities and joint venture co-investments to be held in Redwood's investment portfolio, but we are deemed to be able to exert significant influence over the affairs of the joint venture. We adjust the carrying value of our equity method investment for our share of earnings or losses, dividends or return of capital on a quarterly basis. We recognized net equity method earnings of $1 million for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, through Other income, net in our Consolidated statements of income. See Note 8 for further information on residential bridge loans sold to these joint ventures.
