Restricted Cash
Restricted cash is a financial metric that represents cash, which is set aside or restricted for a specific purpose and cannot be freely used by the company. This cash may be required to fulfill legal obligations or regulatory requirements. For example, a company may set aside cash to cover the cost of a potential lawsuit or to comply with loan covenants that require them to maintain a certain amount of cash on hand. This cash may be held in a separate account, often with restrictions on how it can be used or withdrawn. The amount of restricted cash is reported on a company's balance sheet under the current assets section.
