Investments in Affiliated Entities | Investments in Affiliated Entities The Company’s investments in an affiliated entities represent the Company’s ownership interest in the Korean based companies GeneOne Life Sciences ("GeneOne") and Plumbline Life Sciences ("PLS"). The Company held a 10.2% ownership interest in GeneOne as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and a 16.9% ownership interest in PLS as of December 31, 2015. The Company's investment in GeneOne is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair market value of the Company’s interest in GeneOne was determined using the closing price of GeneOne's shares of common stock as listed on the Korean Stock Exchange as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. The Company accounts for its investment in PLS as an available-for sale security by which the fair value was determined using the closing price of 395,758 common shares owned of PLS on December 31, 2015, listed on the Korea New Exchange (KONEX) Market. The Company elected the fair value option in conjunction with the investment in GeneOne at the inception of the investment therefore changes in the fair value of the investment are reflected as other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not elect the fair value option for the investment in PLS at the inception of the investment, but rather recorded the investment under the equity method until its ownership interest dropped below 20% in June 2015 and accordingly began recording the investment under the cost method using the carryover basis from the equity method of zero. Once shares of PLS began trading on the KONEX, the Company classified the investment as available-for-sale and began recording the investment at fair value with changes in fair value reflected in other comprehensive income (loss).
