The Company collects cash from proceeds from certain international employees’ sales of common stock. The amount is held in a Company bank account until it is remitted to the employees. Due to the restrictions on the use of the funds in the bank account, we have classified the amount as short-term restricted cash, and a corresponding liability is included in Other payables in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2025, $242 of such funds were held.
