Our non-marketable equity investments are in privately-held companies without readily determinable fair values. In June 2025, we completed an investment in Scale AI by acquiring a non-voting minority of its outstanding equity. Out of the total consideration, $13.79 billion was included in non-marketable equity investments accounted for under the measurement alternative method, as we do not have significant influence over Scale AI's operations.

Our non-marketable equity method investments include mostly unconsolidated variable interest entities (VIE) of which we are not the primary beneficiary as we do not direct the activities that would significantly affect their economic performance. As of June 30, 2025, our maximum exposure to loss in these VIEs was $1.98 billion, which is the carrying value of our investments. Subsequent to June 30, 2025, we have extended tender offers of up to $3.0 billion to acquire additional equity interests in these VIEs.

Investments held in our non-marketable equity investment portfolios are subject to equity price risk.
