As of June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the Company had held-to-maturity investments with contractual maturities of over three months to one year. These investments are reported as held-to-maturity because the Company has both the positive intent and ability to hold these investments to maturity; they are stated at amortized cost, adjusted for the amortization of any related premiums or the accretion of any related discounts into interest income. 

 

The held-to-maturity investments are reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of  June 30, 2026, and consist of the following:

Total

 $81,541,216  $261  $(36,782) $81,504,695 

 

As of  June 30, 2026, gross unrealized gains and unrealized losses for held-to-maturity securities were $261 and $36,782, respectively. The Company has determined that these gross unrealized losses of $36,782 are primarily attributable to fluctuations in market interest rates rather than credit-related factors. The Company’s commercial paper and U.S. Treasury holdings consist of high-credit-quality issuers and government-backed securities, respectively. The Company evaluated its held-to-maturity securities for expected credit losses and determined that any such losses would be immaterial. This assessment is based on the high credit quality of the issuers, the short-term nature of the instruments, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold these investments until maturity. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses was recorded as of June 30, 2026.
