The Company evaluates investments with unrealized losses to determine if the losses are other than temporary. In making this determination, the Company considered the financial condition, credit ratings and near-term prospects of the issuers, the underlying collateral of the investments, and the magnitude of the losses as compared to the cost and the length of time the investments have been in an unrealized loss position. Additionally, while the Company classifies the securities as available for sale, the Company does not currently intend to sell such investments and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell such investments prior to the recovery of their carrying value.

During the fiscal year ending March 31, 2019, the issuer of the Company’s investment in preference shares began showing signs of financial distress. This included down-grades to its credit rating and a decrease in trading activity and market pricing for this security. Due to the uncertainty in recovering the amortized cost of this security, the Company has determined the unrealized losses are other-than-temporary and recorded the impairment in earnings. The Company has determined that other unrealized losses at March 31, 2020 and 2019 are temporary.

The following is a summary of other-than-temporary impairment unrealized losses recognized during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020:
