7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We
are exposed to market risk, including changes to interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
32
Interest
Rate Sensitivity
We
had cash and cash equivalents totaling $0.05 million and $0.30 million as of December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and investments with original maturities of three months or less, are stated at cost,
and approximate fair value. Our investment policy and strategy are focused on preservation of capital, supporting our liquidity requirements,
and delivering competitive returns subject to prevailing market conditions. We were not exposed to material risks due to changes in market
interest rates given the liquidity of the cash and investments with original maturities of three months.
Foreign
Currency Risk
Although
we are exposed to foreign currency risk from our international operations, we do not consider it to have a material impact. Certain transactions
of the Company and its subsidiaries are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Foreign currency transaction losses
totaled $23,109 for the year ended December 31, 2023, which is up from $13,066 for the year ended December 31, 2022, each of which were
recorded within other income, net on the consolidated statements of operations.
Credit
Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts
receivable.
The
Company’s cash and cash equivalents are generally held with large financial institutions. Although the Company’s deposits
may exceed federally insured limits, the financial institutions that the Company uses have high investment-grade credit ratings and,
as a result, the Company believes that, as of December 31, 2023, its risk relating to deposits exceeding federally insured limits was
not significant.
The
Company has no significant off-balance sheet risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts, or other hedging arrangements.
The
Company believes its credit policies are prudent and reflect normal industry terms and business risk. The Company generally does not
require collateral from its customers and generally requires payment from zero to 90 days from the invoice date with typical terms of
30 days. As of December 31, 2023, three customers accounted for over 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance, and one
customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2022.
