2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. We have discussed those estimates that we believe are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application in our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC, on March 28, 2024. Since December 31, 2023, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies or the methodologies or assumptions we apply under them other than the ones noted below under "Significant Accounting Policies" . Significant Accounting Policies Short-Term Investments Short-term investments consist of financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of greater than three months and less than one year. We consider our short-term investments as available-for-sale and carry them at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, if any, reported as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, which is a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses on the sale or impairment, if any, of these securities, are recognized in net income or loss. The cost of investments sold is based on the specific identification method. Fair value of financial instruments The fair value of our marketable securities is based on quoted market prices and trade data for comparable securities. |
