The adoption of Statement 115 had no impact on net income. The following table summarizes the effect of this standard on stockholders' equity: January 1, March 31, (In thousands) 1994 1994 Securities available for sale $139,443 (65,725) Other assets (deferred income taxes) 46,016 23,899 Stockholders' equity Unrealized gain (loss) on debt and equity securities $93,427 (41,826) Note 2: Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Carrying Amounts and Fair Value of Financial Instruments Information related to off-balance sheet risk as of March 31, 1994 is included in Table 20 through 22 of the Corporation's First Quarter Financial Supplement on pages T-18 through T-21. At March 31, 1994, the net fair value of the Corporation's recorded net financial assets subject to valuation in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments", decreased 11 percent from year-end 1993 as a result of a decline in the net financial assets subject to such valuation and 10 percent as a result of an increase in interest rates from year-end 1993, which reduced the fair value of the Corporation's securities and loan portfolios.
