Investments, Debt and Equity Securities [Abstract]

Accounting policy

Debt securities available-for-sale are accounted for under the provisions of ASC 320 Investments – Debt and Equity Securities, which requires that debt securities available-for-sale ("AFS") be carried at fair value on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets with unrealized gains (losses) recorded through other comprehensive income (“OCI”). Debt securities in an unrealized loss position which the Company intends to sell or for which it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell before recovery of the amortized cost basis, are written down to fair value through income.

Quarterly, for debt securities in an unrealized loss position that the Company does not intend or will, more likely than not, not be required to sell, the Company evaluates if the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. If it is determined that the decline in fair value is related to credit losses, the Company records an allowance for credit losses, limited

to the amount by which the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. If the Company determines that the decline in value is related to factors other than credit, the Company recognizes the impairment through OCI.

Debt securities were purchased close to the final trading day of the quarter ended March 31, 2021 and are held by a trust in the Costa Rica National Bank as a collateral requirement for settlement activities. The Company may substitute securities as needed but must maintain certain levels of collateral based on transaction volumes.

The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses recorded in OCI, and estimated fair value as of June 30, 2021 were as follows:


	June 30, 2021
(In thousands)			Gross unrealized
	Amortized cost		Gains	Losses	Fair Value
Costa Rica Government Obligations
After 1 to 5 years	$	2,970	89	—	$	3,059

No debt securities were sold during the quarter ended June 30, 2021. A provision for credit losses was not required for the period presented above. Refer to Note 7 for disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy.
