The Notes were offered and sold in an offering registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-286841).

Treasury stock

 

The Company treats ordinary shares withheld for tax purposes on behalf of employees in connection with the vesting of restricted share grants as ordinary share repurchases because they reduce the number of ordinary shares that would have been issued upon vesting. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company withheld nil ordinary shares that were surrendered to the Company for withholding taxes related to restricted stock vesting valued at $nil, based on fair value of the withheld shares on the vesting date.

 

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had treasury stock of $1.2 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
