BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Use of Estimates | The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025.
Reclassifications | Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior period amounts to the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the results of operations, stockholders’ equity or cash flows as previously reported.
Investment Securities Held to Maturity | The Company purchased short-term and long-term investment grade U.S. Treasury Strips in the second quarter of 2025 in an effort to protect itself from anticipated interest rate drops. These securities are classified as held-to-maturity and carried at amortized cost because the Company has both the intent and ability to hold them until their contractual maturity date. Since these U.S. Treasury Strips are zero-coupon instruments that do not pay periodic interest, the original investment amount is adjusted for the accretion of discounts using the effective interest method over the period from acquisition to maturity. Discount accretion is recognized as “Interest and investment income” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Consistent with the Company’s classification of its U.S. Treasury Strips as held to maturity, those securities scheduled to mature in the next twelve months after the reporting date are considered current assets and those having maturity dates more than twelve months after the applicable reporting date are considered non-current assets. Unrealized gains and losses on held-to-maturity securities are not recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Instead, these amounts are closely monitored and disclosed in the footnotes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company accounts for credit losses on its held-to-maturity securities in accordance with the expected credit loss model, as prescribed by U.S. GAAP. An allowance for credit losses is recognized to reflect the Company's estimate of expected credit losses over the contractual life of its held-to-maturity securities. In accordance with the accounting guidance prescribed for credit losses on held-to-maturity debt securities, the Company has presumed the expected credit losses on its U.S. Treasury Strips are negligible since they are explicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures, amending income tax disclosure requirements for the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and are applied prospectively. Early adoption and retrospective application of the amendments are permitted. These new disclosure requirements will be effective in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. Other than the new disclosure requirements, this guidance is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure about the types of costs and expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the income statement. These new disclosure requirements are effective for the Company's annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact this update will have on its consolidated financial statements and expense disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The Company does not believe that issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
