CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

Short-term investments include investments in U.S. Treasury notes. Short-term investments with original maturities of approximately three months or less from the date of purchase are classified within cash and cash equivalents. Debt investments with original maturities at the date of purchase greater than approximately three months but less than one year are classified as short-term investments, as they represent the investment of cash available for current operations. All short-term investments that the Company holds are classified as "held-to-maturity". The Company has accounted for and disclosed the purchase of its short-term investments in accordance with ASC 320 Investments - Debt Securities. The following tables summarize the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments as well as any gross unrealized holding gains and losses as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. Due to the nature of these assets and the short-

term nature of the U.S. Treasury notes being held to maturity, both these cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments fall under the Level 1 fair value hierarchy as referenced in Note 2.
