Foreign Exchange Contracts and Transaction Gains/Losses Transaction gains and losses resulting from transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar or in the functional currencies of our subsidiaries are included in “other income (expense), net” for the periods presented. The transaction gains for the year ended December 31, 2016 totaled $232,000. The transaction gain totaled $717,000 and a transaction loss totaled $1.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. To partially protect us against fluctuations in foreign currency resulting from accounts receivable in Japanese yen, starting in 2015, we instituted a foreign currency hedging program. We place short-term hedges that are intended to offset the potential cash exposure related to fluctuations in the exchange rate between the United States dollar and Japanese yen. We measure the fair value of these hedges at each month end and quarter end using current exchange rates and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. At year end any foreign currency hedges not settled are netted on the consolidated balance sheet and classified as Level 3 assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2016 the net change in fair value from the placement of the hedge to settlement at year end had a de minimis impact to the consolidated results. As of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had no outstanding commitments with respect to foreign exchange contracts. Gain on Sales of Investments Gain on sales investments were derived from the realized gain from the sales of our IntelliEpi and GSI common stock, both of these investments are categorized as available-for-sales investment, in the Taiwan stock exchange market in year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. As of December 31, 2016, we no longer hold any IntelliEpi stock.
