Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023
Notes to the Financial Statements
14. Convertible Senior Notes, page 114
1. We note that your Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the
holder and
that the make-whole fundamental change provision may trigger an increase
in the
conversion rate. Please explain to us how you evaluated the Notes to
determine whether
each conversion feature was required to be bifurcated and accounted for
as a derivative
under ASC 815. In your response, please specifically address whether
each conversion
option contingency meets the definition of a derivative and, if so,
whether it qualifies for
the scope exception for contracts involving an entity's own equity as
set forth in ASC 815-
10-15-74(a). Specifically address the steps in ASC 815-40-15-7A through
15-7H, the
conditions beginning in ASC 815-40-25-7, and if the make-whole provision
violates the
condition in ASC 815-40-25-39. Please also revise your accounting policy
disclosure
accordingly in your future filings.
