2. We note several instances where the amounts presented in MD&A are
inconsistent with
the amounts presented in the audited financial statements. For
example, in all periods
presented, expenses presented in the tables on pages 90-92 are not
consistent with the line
items reported on the Consolidated Statements of Income on page F-4.
We also note that
the amount of stock based compensation presented in your Non-GAAP
reconciliation on
page 79 for the year ended December 31, 2019 is not consistent with
the amount reported
on page F-7.
3. We note under Subsequent events that in July 2021, the company
determined that it would
pay a cash bonus to each of its employees in a value that approximates
the cost of each
employee exercising 45% of their total outstanding shares. We further
note that through
September 24, 2021, you paid nearly $9.5 million in cash bonuses to
employees. Please
revise your MD&A to disclose this obligation, including its
anticipated impact on your
future cash flows and operating expenses for the foreseeable future.
Please also revise
your disclosure on page F-21 to disclose the total amount of remaining
cash bonuses, if
any, that you reasonably expect to pay subsequent to September 24,
2021. Please refer to
Item 303 of Regulation S-K and ASC 855-10-50-2.
