(b)Summary of Equity Investments
We held marketable equity securities of $409 million and $431 million as of October 28, 2023 and July 29, 2023, respectively. We recognized a net unrealized loss of $42 million and $20 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively, on our marketable securities still held as of the reporting date. Our net adjustments to non-marketable equity securities measured using the measurement alternative still held was a net loss of $12 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2023. These adjustments were not material for the first quarter of fiscal 2024. We held equity interests in certain private equity funds of $0.9 billion as of each of October 28, 2023 and July 29, 2023, which are accounted for under the NAV practical expedient.
In the ordinary course of business, we have investments in privately held companies and provide financing to certain customers. These privately held companies and customers are evaluated for consolidation under the variable interest or voting interest entity models. We evaluate on an ongoing basis our investments in these privately held companies and our customer financings, and have determined that as of October 28, 2023, there were no additional significant variable interest or voting interest entities required to be consolidated in our Consolidated Financial Statements.
The carrying value of our investments in privately held companies was $1.8 billion as of each of October 28, 2023 and July 29, 2023. Of the total carrying value of our investments in privately held companies as of October 28, 2023, $0.9 billion of such investments are considered to be in variable interest entities which are unconsolidated. As of October 28, 2023, we have total funding commitments of $0.3 billion related to privately held investments, some of which may be based on the achievement of certain agreed-upon milestones or are required to be funded on demand. The carrying value of these investments and the additional funding commitments, collectively, represent our maximum exposure related to privately held investments.
