Interest Rate Risk
We had cash and cash equivalents totaling $195.9 million, and $182.3 million as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. These amounts were primarily invested in money markets. The Company held no investments as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The cash and cash equivalents are held for a variety of growth and investments as well as working capital purposes.
We do not believe that an increase or decrease of 100 basis points in interest rates would have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. However, our cash equivalents are subject to market risk due to changes in interest rates. Fixed rate securities may have their market value adversely affected due to a rise in interest rates. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectation due to changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if we are forced to sell securities that decline in market value due to changes in interest rates.
28
Fluctuations in the value of our money market funds caused by a change in interest rates (gains or losses on the carrying value) are recorded in other income and are realized only if we sell the underlying securities.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
To date, a substantial majority of our revenue from client arrangements has been denominated in U.S. dollars. We have limited operations outside the United States. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company has foreign subsidiaries in Israel, Ireland, the United Kingdom and Australia, the functional currency of each subsidiary being the New Israeli Shekel, Euro, British pound and Australian dollar, respectively. The Company also has a branch with a functional currency of the New Israeli Shekel. The transactional activity for these entities in the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was not considered significant. Accordingly, we believe we do not have a material exposure to foreign currency risk. We may choose to focus on international expansion, which may increase our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk in the future.
Inflation Risk
We do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations in the last two years. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition or results of operations.
