We have operations both within the United States and globally, and we are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business, including the effects of interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations. Information relating to quantitative and qualitative disclosures about these market risks is described below.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
The majority of our cash and cash equivalents and assets underlying customer funds were held in cash deposits and money market funds as of June 30, 2026, the fair value of which would not be materially affected by either an increase or decrease in interest rates, due mainly to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of our investments in term deposits and U.S. Treasury Securities, amounting to $1.8 billion, would be affected by changes in interest rates, and such changes could be material.
The Company has entered into interest rate floor contracts with respect to $2.2 billion in customer funds to limit the potential risk that declining interest rates would have on our revenues from interest income, though as of the periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, a hypothetical 1% increase or decrease in interest rates could have a material effect on our revenues and earnings.
Foreign Currency Risk
While most of our revenue is earned in U.S. dollars, our foreign currency exposure includes currencies of the countries in which our operations are located, including operating expenses denominated in New Israeli Shekels. To reduce that risk, we invest in foreign currency forward contracts and net purchased options, which are accounted for as cash flow hedges.
A hypothetical 10% strengthening or weakening of the U.S. dollar against the New Israeli Shekel would have had a material impact on unrealized gains (losses) recognized in AOCI at June 30, 2026.
Our foreign currency exposure also includes currencies in which our customer funds are held, or in which they are withdrawn or utilized, and may be subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly changes in the Euro, Japanese Yen, Chinese Yuan, Canadian Dollar, New Israeli Shekel, Philippine Peso, Indian Rupee, Mexican Peso, Pakistani Rupee, South Korean Won, Turkish Lira, New Zealand Dollar, Australian Dollar, British Pound, Indonesian Rupiah, Swiss Franc, and Polish Zloty. As of the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in current exchange rates could have a material impact on our financial results.
In addition, some of our services include the opportunity for Payoneer to generate revenues from foreign exchange transactions as part of the payment delivery process. Our ability to generate such revenues is partially dependent on external factors such as market conditions, applicable regulations and our ability to negotiate with third-party financial institutions. The impact of these efforts to optimize foreign exchange can be material to revenues and earnings.
