On December 23, 2016, the Company acquired a 25.0% equity interest in Ruby Sketch Pty Ltd. (“Ruby Sketch”), an Australian proprietary limited company, for $2.5 million, for which the Company accounts for its ownership interest using the equity accounting method. Ruby Sketch develops software that assists in designing residential structures, primarily used in Australia, and potentially for the North America market. The Company has no obligation to make any additional capital contributions to Ruby Sketch.

For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded an equity loss of $12 thousand and $41 thousand, respectively, with respect to its Ruby Sketch investment. However, the investment increased $95 thousand due to the foreign currency translation, primarily related to the weakening Australian dollar against United States dollar, resulting in a $2.6 million balance as of June 30, 2017.
