Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risk managed using derivative instruments is foreign exchange rate risk.
Since October 2012, the Company has employed a hedging program with a Canadian chartered bank to limit the potential foreign exchange fluctuations incurred on its future cash flows related to a portion of payroll, taxes, rent and payments to Canadian domain name registry suppliers that are denominated in Canadian dollars and are expected to be paid by its Canadian operating subsidiary. The Company does not use hedging forward contracts for trading or speculative purposes. The foreign exchange contracts typically mature between one and twelve months.
The Company has designated certain of these foreign exchange transactions as cash flow hedges for forecasted transactions. Where the critical terms of the hedging instrument and the entire hedged forecasted transaction are the same, in accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"), the Company concludes that changes in fair value and cash flows attributable to the risk being hedged are expected to completely offset at inception and on an ongoing basis. The Company designated the foreign exchange hedge as a cash flow hedge of expected future payments at the inception of the contract. Accordingly, for the foreign exchange contracts, unrealized gains or losses on the effective portion of these contracts were included within other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction is settled. Cash flows from hedging activities were classified under the same category as the cash flows from the hedged items in
the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The fair value of the foreign exchange contract, as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, is recorded as derivative instrument assets or liabilities. For certain contracts where the hedged transactions are no longer probable to occur, the loss on the associated forward contract is recognized in earnings.
As of June 30, 2026, the notional amount of forward contracts that the Company held to sell U.S. dollars in exchange for Canadian dollars was $24.0 million, all of which met the requirements of ASC Topic 815 and were designated as hedges.
As of December 31, 2025, the notional amount of forward contracts that the Company held to sell U.S. dollars in exchange for Canadian dollars was $27.2 million, all of which met the requirements of ASC Topic 815 and were designated as hedges.
