The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar (“USD”). For businesses where the majority of the revenues are generated in USD or linked to the USD and a substantial portion of the costs are incurred in USD, the Company’s management believes that the USD is the primary currency of the economic environment and thus their functional currency. Due to the fact that Argentina has been determined to be highly inflationary, the financial statements of our subsidiary in Argentina have been remeasured as if its functional currency was the USD. The Company also has foreign operations where the functional currency is the local currency. For these operations, assets and liabilities are translated using the end-of-period exchange rates and revenues, expenses and cash flows are translated using average rates of exchange for the period. Equity is translated at the rate of exchange at the date of the equity transaction. Translation adjustments are recognized in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Net translation losses from the translation of foreign currency financial statements of $(1,441) and $(694) at September 30, 2022 and 2023, respectively, are included in comprehensive income (loss) in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity.

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses related to operational expenses denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in determining net income or loss. Foreign currency transaction losses for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 of $(922) and $(1,844), respectively, and for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 of $(358) and $(126), respectively, are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Foreign currency transaction gains related to long-term debt for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 of $191 and $2,803, respectively, and for the three- and-nine month periods ended September 30, 2023 of $429 and $1,139, respectively, are included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
