Note 1 – Organization, business and summary of significant accounting policies

Organization

KLDiscovery Inc. (the “Company,” “we” or “us”) is a leading global provider of eDiscovery, information governance and data recovery solutions to corporations, law firms, insurance companies and individuals in 17 countries around the world. We provide technology solutions to help our clients solve complex data challenges. The Company’s headquarters are located in Eden Prairie, Minnesota. The Company has 26 locations in 17 countries, as well as 9 data centers and 13 data recovery labs globally.

The Company was originally incorporated under the name Pivotal Acquisition Corp. (“Pivotal”) as a blank check company on August 2, 2018 under the laws of the State of Delaware for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

On December 19, 2019, Pivotal acquired the outstanding shares of LD Topco, Inc. via a reverse capitalization (the “Business Combination”) and was renamed KLDiscovery Inc.

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of KLDiscovery and all its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Liquidity and going concern evaluation

 

Under Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Going Concern, the Company is required to evaluate each reporting period, including interim periods, whether there is substantial doubt regarding its ability to meet its obligations when they come due within one year from the financial statement issuance date. On February 8, 2021, certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Loan Parties”), entered into a new secured credit agreement (the “2021 Credit Agreement”) and on March 3, 2023, the Loan Parties entered into the First Amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Amended 2021 Credit Agreement”). In addition, on December 19, 2019, the Company issued Convertible Debentures, which mature in 2024, in an aggregate principal amount of $200 million (the “Debentures” or the “Convertible Debentures”). The Amended 2021 Credit Agreement provides for (i) initial term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $300 million (the “Initial Term Loans”), (ii) delayed draw term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $50 million (the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”), and (iii) revolving credit loans in an aggregate principal amount of $40 million, with a letter of credit sublimit of $10 million (the Revolving Credit Loans”). The Initial Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans are each scheduled to mature on February 8, 2026, unless the Convertible Debentures are outstanding six months prior to the December 19, 2024 maturity date thereof, in which case the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement matures on June 19, 2024. The Company has historically incurred losses and in certain years cash flows have been negative. As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s cash balance was $15.4 million and the Company’s debt balance was $546.8 million, including a balance of $260.9 million under the Convertible Debentures and a balance of $291.8 million in Initial Term Loans under the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement (no amounts were outstanding under the Delayed Draw Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans). As of December 31, 2023, the Company does not anticipate repaying the Convertible Debentures by June 19, 2024 and as such, the Initial Term Loans debt of $291.8 million and the Convertible Debentures of $260.9 million are included in the current portion of long-term debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand, and does not expect to generate sufficient liquidity from forecasted future cash flows to repay its current obligations including the Initial Term Loans, at the accelerated maturity date, or the Convertible Debentures.

 

The Company is reviewing potential alternatives, including renegotiating the terms of the Convertible Debentures and/or the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement and identifying alternative sources for cash or additional financing. The Company's current debt structure, however, raises substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern because these or other alternatives may not be achievable on favorable terms and conditions or at all. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty and have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

 

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Although actual results could differ from those estimates, management does not believe that such differences would be material.

 

Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the fair value of Private Warrants (as defined in Note 2), the determination of the incremental borrowing rate used to measure right-of-use assets and liabilities, the recoverability and useful lives of property and equipment, intangible assets, and other long-lived assets, the evaluation of goodwill for impairment, the valuation and realization of deferred income taxes, the fair value of the Company’s common stock, stock based compensation equity awards and acquisition-related contingent consideration.

Segments, concentration of credit risk, major customers and liquidity

The Company operates in one business segment, providing technology-based litigation support solutions and services.

Financial instruments, which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with a banking institution where the balances, at times, exceed federally insured limits. Management believes the risks associated with these deposits are limited.

 

With respect to accounts receivable, the Company performs ongoing evaluations of its customers, generally grants uncollateralized credit terms to its customers, and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical experience and management’s expectations of future losses. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company did not have a single customer that represented more than five percent (5%) or more of their consolidated revenues or accounts receivable and, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 the Company had one single customer that represented approximately six percent (6%) of our consolidated revenues and one single customer that represented approximately six percent (6%) of our consolidated accounts receivable. The Company believes that the geographic and industry diversity of the Company’s customer base throughout the U.S. and internationally minimizes the risk of incurring material losses due to concentrations of credit risk. The Company’s foreign revenues, principally from businesses in the UK and Germany, totaled approximately $52.6 million and $49.6 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company’s long-lived assets in foreign countries, principally in the UK and Germany, totaled approximately $27.0 million and 25.9 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

As disclosed in Note 6, the Company has significant outstanding debt that comes due in 2024. While the Company is exploring various options to refinance the debt, new financings may not be available to the Company on commercially acceptable terms, or at all.

Foreign currency

Results of operations for the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated from the designated functional currency to the reporting currency of the U.S. dollar. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for each month, while assets and liabilities are translated at balance sheet date exchange rates. Resulting net translation adjustments are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity in “Accumulated other comprehensive income.”

Transaction gains and losses arising from currency exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the local functional currency are included in “Other expense” on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. Such transaction gains and losses may be realized or unrealized depending upon whether the transaction settled during the period or remains outstanding at the balance sheet date.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

 

Accounts receivable

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses for its financial instruments, which is primarily comprised of accounts receivable. The measurement and recognition of credit losses involves the use of judgment and represents management’s estimate of expected lifetime credit losses based on historical experience and trends, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Management’s assessment of expected credit losses includes consideration of current and expected economic, market and industry factors affecting the Company’s customers, including their financial condition; the aging of account balances; historical credit loss experience; customer concentrations; customer credit-worthiness; and other sources of payment, among other factors.

 

Management evaluates its experience with historical losses and then applies this historical loss ratio to financial assets with similar characteristics. The Company’s historical loss ratio or its determination of risk pools may be adjusted for changes in customer, economic, market or other circumstances. The Company may also establish an allowance for credit losses for specific receivables when it is probable that a specific receivable will not be collected and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Amounts are written off against the allowance when they are considered to be uncollectible, and reversals of previously reserved amounts are recognized if a specifically reserved item is settled for an amount exceeding the previous estimate. Recoveries of trade accounts receivable previously written off are recorded when received.

 

Estimates of collectability are subject to significant change during times of economic weakness or uncertainty in either the overall economy or within the industries served by the Company. Management actively monitors these factors and assesses the sufficiency of its allowance for credit losses on an ongoing basis, including the potential effects of trends in end-market volatility and/or other macroeconomic factors on the credit quality of the Company’s customers and/or its financial assets, such as the current market environment of elevated interest rates and inflation.

A rollforward of the allowance for doubtful accounts is presented below (in thousands):

Fixed Assets

Computer software, property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the assets:

 

Computer software and hardware

 

3 to 5 years

Leasehold improvements

 

Shorter of lease term or useful life

Furniture, fixtures and other equipment

 

3 to 5 years

 

Gains or losses on disposals are included in results of operations at amounts equal to the difference between the net book value of the disposed assets and the proceeds received upon disposal. Costs for replacements and betterments are capitalized, while the costs of maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Finance leases right of use assets are included in Property and equipment and are stated at the present value of minimum lease payments and subsequently amortized using the straight-line method over the earlier of the end of the asset's useful life or the end of the lease term.

Depreciation expense totaled $10.0 million and $9.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and includes amortization of assets recorded under finance leases. For additional information on leases, refer to Note 5 – Leases.

Internal-use software development costs

The Company capitalizes certain internal computer software costs incurred during the application development stage. The application development stage generally includes software design and configuration, coding, testing and installation activities. Training and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred, while upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if it is probable that such expenditure will result in additional functionality. Capitalized software costs are depreciated over the estimated useful life of the underlying project on a straight-line basis. The Company’s estimated useful life of capitalized software costs varies between three and five years, depending on management’s expectation of the economic life of various software. Capitalized software amortization costs are recorded as a component of cost of revenue.

Capitalized software costs are reflected as part of the “Intangible assets, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and totaled $20.0 million and $17.5 million, net of accumulated amortization, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

The Company also enters into certain cloud-based software hosting arrangements that are accounted for as service contracts. For internal use software obtained through a hosting arrangement that is in the nature of a service contract, the Company incurs certain implementation costs such as integrating, configuring, and software customization, which are consistent with costs incurred during the application development stage for on-premise software. The Company applies the same guidance to determine costs that are eligible for capitalization. For these arrangements, the Company amortizes the capitalized development costs straight-line over the fixed, non-cancellable term of the associated hosting arrangement plus any reasonably certain renewal periods. The Company also applies the same impairment model to both internal-use software and capitalized implementation costs in a software hosting arrangement that is in the nature of a service contract.

 

Capitalized implementation costs of cloud-based hosting arrangements are classified as part of Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets, totaling $1.8 million and $9.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2023, and $1.7 million and $7.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2022. Amortization of capitalized implementation costs related to hosting arrangements totaled $1.8 million and $1.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Intangible assets and other long-lived assets

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of any asset to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the difference between the fair value of the asset compared to its carrying amount.

Amortization expense totaled $15.9 million and $20.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively; $5.8 million and $10.0 million of which was classified as part of the “Cost of revenues” line in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the total consideration paid over identified intangible and tangible assets of the business acquired. The Company tests its goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis on October 1, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, or sale or disposition of a significant portion of a reporting unit. As of the October 1 testing date the Company determined there is one reporting unit.

Goodwill impairment exists when the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If impairment exists, the carrying value of the goodwill is reduced by the excess through an impairment charge recorded in the Company’s statements of operations. The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is subjective and requires significant judgment at many points during the analysis.

The fair value of the Company’s reporting unit is estimated using a combination of a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis and market-based valuation methodologies such as comparable public company trading values. Determining fair value requires the exercise of significant judgments, including the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, long-term growth rates, discount rates and relevant comparable public company earnings multiples. The cash flows employed in the DCF analyses are based on the Company’s best estimate of future sales, earnings and cash flows after considering factors such as general market conditions, changes in working capital, long term business plans and recent operating performance. The carrying value of the reporting unit includes the assets and liabilities employed in its operations and goodwill.

Based on the results of the annual impairment test as of October 1, 2023 and the quantitative assessment performed as of December 31, 2023, the Company concluded that the fair value of its reporting unit exceeded the individual reporting unit’s carrying value, and goodwill was not impaired.

Business Combinations

The Company applies ASC 805, Business Combinations, when accounting for business combinations, utilizing the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method, the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest are recorded at their respective fair values on the acquisition date. Goodwill is identified as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Management relies on significant estimates and assumptions, utilizing third-party valuations like appraisals or internal valuations based on discounted cash flow analyses or other methods, to assess the values of assets and liabilities. While these estimates and assumptions are considered reasonable and appropriate, they remain inherently uncertain and subject to change. If additional information about facts and circumstances related to the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities emerges within the measurement period (not exceeding one year), the Company may adjust its estimates to account for subsequent changes to the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date, resulting in an offsetting adjustment to the goodwill associated with the acquired business. Other revisions to fair value estimates for acquisitions are reflected as income or expense, as appropriate. The Company expenses acquisition-related costs as they are incurred.

Consideration paid generally consists of cash and, from time to time, shares, and potential future payments that are contingent upon the acquired business achieving certain levels of earnings in the future, also referred to as

“contingent consideration” or “earn-outs.” Any contingent consideration is estimated at fair value at the acquisition date. Liability-classified contingent consideration is remeasured each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings until the contingent consideration is settled.
 

On November 20, 2023, the Company closed the acquisition of certain assets of Cenza Technologies Private Limited ("Cenza"), a leading firm in the legal outsourcing and technology services sector. The consideration for this acquisition comprised an initial cash payment of $3.0 million, primarily allocated to goodwill, and deferred contingent consideration of $1.3 million. The contingent consideration, a two-year liability, is contingent upon Cenza meeting specific revenue targets at the end of each year. The earnout, if achieved in a given year, will be paid in the amount of $650,000 distributed at the end of the corresponding year in which the target is achieved. If the initial target is not achieved at the end of the first year, but the full target is achieved at the end of the second year, the full $1.3 million will be distributed at such time.

Debt issuance costs

Debt issuance costs are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization, and are amortized over the term of the debt using both the straight-line and the effective yield methods. U.S. GAAP requires that the effective yield method be used to amortize debt acquisition costs; however, if the effect of using the straight-line method is not materially different from the results that would have been obtained under the effective yield method, the straight-line method may be used. The amortization for funded term debt is calculated according to the effective yield method and revolving and unfunded term debt is calculated according to the straight-line method. Debt issuance costs related to funded term debt is presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability, consistent with debt discounts or premiums. Debt issuance costs related to revolving and unfunded term debt is presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within “Other assets.” For additional information on leases, refer to Note 6 – Long Term Debt.

Revenue recognition

Revenues are recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring goods or services promised in a contract to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to receive in exchange for those services. Performance obligations in the Company's contracts represent distinct or separate service streams that the Company provides to its customers.

The Company evaluates its revenue contracts with customers based on the five-step model under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue Recognition: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to separate performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenues when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company provides Legal Technology services to its clients through several technology solutions including Nebula Ecosystem (“Nebula”) its internally developed end-to-end fully integrated proprietary solution. The Company also provide Data Recovery solutions.

Performance Obligations and Timing of Revenue Recognition

The Company primarily sells services and products that fall into the categories discussed below. Each category contains one or more performance obligations that are either (1) capable of being distinct (i.e., the customer can benefit from the product or service on its own or together with readily available resources, including those purchased separately from us) and distinct within the context of the contract (i.e., separately identified from other promises in the contract) or (2) a series of distinct products or services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer.

 

(1)
Legal Technology, including Nebula and the Company's expansive suite of technology solutions, such as its end-to-end eDiscovery technology solutions, managed review solutions, collections, processing, analytics, hosting, production and professional services, and
(2)
Data recovery solutions, which provides data restoration, data erasure and data management services

The Company generates the majority of its revenues by providing Legal Technology services to our clients. Most of our eDiscovery service contracts are time and materials types of arrangements.

Time and materials arrangements are based on units of data stored or processed. Unit-based revenues are recognized as services are provided, based on either the amount of data stored or processed, the number of concurrent users accessing the information, or the number of pages or images processed for a client, at agreed upon per unit rates. We recognize revenues for these arrangements at a point in time utilizing a right-to-invoice practical expedient because we have a right to consideration for services completed to date.

Certain other eDiscovery contracts are subscription-based, fixed-fee arrangements, which have tiered pricing based on the quantity of data hosted. For a fixed monthly fee, our clients receive a variety of optional eDiscovery services, which are included in addition to the data hosting. The Company recognizes revenues for these arrangements at a point in time based on predetermined monthly fees as determined in our contractual agreements, utilizing a right-to-invoice practical expedient because the Company has a right to consideration for services completed to date.

Other eDiscovery agreements are time and material arrangements that require the client to pay us based on the number of hours worked at contractually agreed-upon rates. The Company recognizes revenues for these arrangements at a point in time based on hours incurred and contracted rates utilizing a right-to-invoice practical expedient because it has a contractual right to consideration for services completed to date.

Data recovery services are mainly fixed fee arrangements requiring the client to pay a pre-established fee in exchange for the successful completion of a data recovery on a predetermined device. For the recovery services performed by the Company’s technicians, the revenue is recognized at a point in time, when the recovered data is sent to the customer.

Data erasure services are fixed fee arrangements for which revenue is recognized at a point in time, when the certificate of erasure is sent to the customer.

 

The Company offers term license subscriptions to Ontrack PowerControls software to customers with on-premises installations of the software pursuant to contracts that are historically one to four years in length. The term license subscriptions include maintenance and support, as well as access to future software upgrades and patches. The license and the additional support services are deemed to be one performance obligation, and thus revenue for these arrangements is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement.

 

 

Share-based compensation

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all share-based awards to employees based on estimated grant date fair values on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model, depending on terms, facts and circumstances of each share-based award. The expected vesting of the Company’s performance-based RSUs is based upon the probability of a liquidity event, such

as a change in control as defined under the 2019 Plan. The probability of achievement of the liquidity event, if any, is re-evaluated quarterly.

Advertising

Advertising costs consist of marketing, advertising through print and other media, professional event sponsorship and public relations. These costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs totaled $3.1 million and $4.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Advertising costs are reflected within “Sales and marketing” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.

Research and development expense

Costs incurred in the research and development of the Company’s technologies primarily consist of developer salaries. Research and development expenses were $13.1 million and $13.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences in recognizing certain income, expense and credit items for financial reporting purposes and tax reporting purposes. Such deferred income taxes primarily relate to the difference between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to the future years in which deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized. Excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recognized in the income tax provision in the period in which they occur.

The Company records a valuation allowance when it determines, based on available positive and negative evidence, that it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company determines the realizability of its deferred tax assets primarily based on the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences. In addition, the Company considers the time frame over which it would take to utilize the deferred tax assets prior to their expiration.

For uncertain tax positions, the Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold based on the technical merits of the tax position taken. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefits determined on a cumulative probability basis, which are more-likely-than-not to be realized upon ultimate settlement in the financial statements. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is determined by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per common share is determined by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year, plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, including stock options and restricted shares. Common stock and common stock equivalents included in the computation represent shares issuable upon assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and release of restricted shares, except when the effect of their inclusion would be antidilutive.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

 

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments using a modified retrospective approach. This guidance is intended to introduce a revised approach to the recognition and measurement of credit losses, emphasizing an updated model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and related amendments, on a modified retrospective approach, which allows entities to initially apply the standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, if any, in the period of adoption with no restatement of comparative periods. Upon adoption, the Company applied the guidance to all existing leases.

 

The new guidance requires the lease rights and obligations arising from the leasing arrangements, including operating leases, to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The present value of lease payments is determined primarily using the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. As the Company’s leases do not have readily determinable implicit discount rates, the Company adjusts its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. There were estimates and judgments made in determining the Company’s incremental borrowing rates based on term, country and currency, including developing a secured credit rating and spreading market yield data across maturities.

 

Upon adoption of the new guidance, the most significant impact was the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities relating to operating leases in the amounts of $21.2 million and $23.8 million, respectively, reported within Operating lease right-of-use assets and Long-term operating lease liabilities, respectively, with the current portion of the liability reported within current portion of operating lease liabilities, in the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022. Accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged and continues to be reported within "Property and equipment, net" and “Other liabilities”, with the current portion of the debt reported within “Accounts payable and accrued expense”, in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. There was no cumulative effect of applying the new standard and accordingly there was no adjustment to our retained earnings upon adoption. The Company has elected not to recognize operating right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases for all classes of underlying assets. Short-term leases are leases with terms greater than 1 month, but less than 12 months. The Company elected to apply the package of transitional practical expedients under which the Company did not reassess prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification. For additional information on leases, refer to Note 5 – Leases.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

The Company has elected to be an Emerging Growth Company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act and take advantage of the extended transition period of delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. This may make the comparison of the Company’s consolidated financial statements to other public companies not meaningful due to the differences in accounting standards being applied.

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and other segment items and requires companies to disclose all annual disclosures about segments in interim periods. This ASU also requires public entities with a single reportable segment to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and all existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. The amendments in this ASU are intended to improve financial reporting by requiring disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis for all public entities to enable investors to develop more decision-useful financial analyses. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. Investors, lenders, creditors, and other allocators of capital (collectively, “investors”) indicated that the existing income tax disclosures should be enhanced to provide information to better assess how an entity’s operations and related tax risks and tax planning and operational opportunities affect its tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. Investors currently rely on the rate reconciliation table and other disclosures, including total income taxes paid, to evaluate income tax risks and opportunities. While investors find these disclosures helpful, they suggested possible enhancements to better (1)

understand an entity’s exposure to potential changes in jurisdictional tax legislation and the ensuing risks and opportunities, (2) assess income tax information that affects cash flow forecasts and capital allocation decisions, and (3) identify potential opportunities to increase future cash flows.

 

The amendments in this ASU addresses investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information.

 

This ASU also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. This ASU is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company does not expect ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements

Note 2 – Fair value measurements

The Company accounts for recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, and requires expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. The ASC 820 hierarchy ranks the quality of reliability of inputs, or assumptions, used in the determination of fair value, and requires assets and liabilities carried at fair value to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1 – Fair value is determined by using unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 – Fair value is determined by using inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable. Inputs can include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in inactive markets. Related inputs can also include those used in valuation or other pricing models, such as interest rates and yield curves that can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Fair value is determined by inputs that are unobservable and not corroborated by market data. Use of these inputs involves significant and subjective judgments to be made by a reporting entity – e.g., determining an appropriate adjustment to a discount factor for illiquidity associated with a given security.

The Company evaluates financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to determine the appropriate level at which to classify them each reporting period. This determination requires significant judgments to be made by the Company.

The Company believes that the fair values of its current assets and current liabilities (cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other current liabilities) approximate their reported carrying amounts.

 

The Company estimates the fair value of contingent purchase consideration based on the present value of the consideration expected to be paid during the remainder of the earn-out period, based on management’s assessment of the acquired operations’ forecasted earnings. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. The fair value of future expected acquisition-related contingent purchase consideration obligations was $1.3 million at December 31, 2023. During 2022, the Company settled $0.6 million earn-out obligation by issuing 128,596 shares of common stock.

 

The Company has determined that the 6,350,000 warrants to purchase Common Stock (the “Private Warrants”) issued in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination in December 2019 should be accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of Private Warrants in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. The fair value of the Private Warrants was $0.1 million as of December 31, 2023.

The following table provides a reconciliation of liabilities measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands):

Note 5 – Leases

 

The Company’s operating leases are primarily for office space expiring in various years through 2029. Certain leases contain annual rent escalation clauses. The Company’s finance leases are primarily for data centers. As part of the Company’s efforts to optimize its real estate footprint, the Company terminated leases in three locations and partially abandoned two locations in 2023.

 

The Company’s lease terms vary depending upon the class of asset and some leases include options to extend or terminate. Generally, the Company does not include renewal or termination options as a component of its present value calculation of operating leases. However, for certain real estate leases, the Company includes them if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise these renewal or termination options, the options are considered in determining the lease term and associated potential option payments or penalties are included as lease payments. In addition, the Company has lease agreements that include lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for separately. Non-lease components consist primarily of common area maintenance expenses and property taxes. Non-lease components are expensed as incurred.

 

The Company’s operating lease assets and liabilities are reported separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The classification of the Company’s finance leases in the Consolidated Balance Sheet was as follows (in thousands):

The Amended 2021 Credit Agreement matures on February 8, 2026, unless the Convertible Debentures are outstanding six months prior to the December 19, 2024 maturity date thereof, in which case the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement matures on June 19, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, the Company does not anticipate repaying the Convertible Debentures by June 19, 2024 and as such, the Term Loan debt of $291.8 million and the Convertible Debentures of $260.9 million are included in the current portion of long-term debt.

 

Amended 2021 Credit Agreement

On February 8, 2021, the Loan Parties entered into the 2021 Credit Agreement, a new secured credit agreement. Proceeds were used to pay in full all outstanding loans and terminate all lending commitments under the previously outstanding 2016 Credit Agreement.

 

On March 3, 2023, the Loan Parties entered into the First Amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement. The First Amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement provides for the revision of the benchmark interest rate from LIBOR to the secured overnight financing rate, (“SOFR”). At March 31, 2023, all outstanding indebtedness under the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement automatically converted from a LIBOR based loan to the new SOFR based loan at the end of the then-current applicable Interest Period. Additionally, the First Amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement provides for the addition of the Term SOFR Adjustment of 0.10%, based on the term of the applicable Interest Period, to be added to the Applicable Rate for both SOFR Loans and Base Rate Loans (capitalized terms as defined in the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement).

The Amended 2021 Credit Agreement provides for (i) Initial Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $300 million, (ii) Delayed Draw Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $50 million, and (iii) Revolving Credit Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $40 million, with a letter of credit sublimit of $10 million. The Delayed Draw Term Loans were available to the Loan Parties at any time prior to February 8, 2023, subject to certain conditions. As of December 31, 2023, there were no outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loans and they are no longer available under the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement.

The Initial Term Loans bear, and while they were available, the Delayed Draw Term Loans bore, interest, at the Loan Parties’ option, at the rate of (x) with respect to SOFR Rate Loans, the Term SOFR Rate with a 1.00% floor, plus 6.50% per annum, plus the Term SOFR Adjustment of 0.10% or (y) with respect to Base Rate Loans, the Base Rate plus 5.50% per annum, plus the Term SOFR Adjustment of 0.10%.

The Revolving Credit Loans bear interest, at our option, at the rate of (x) with respect to SOFR Rate Loans, the Term SOFR Rate plus 4.00% per annum, or (y) with respect to Base Rate Loans, the Base Rate plus 3.00% per annum. The Initial Term Loans amortize at a rate of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of Initial Term Loans outstanding, payable in consecutive quarterly installments of $0.8 million, beginning on June 30, 2021. On December 31, 2023, the balance due was $291.8 million with a Term SOFR Rate of 5.348140% plus the Term SOFR Adjustment of 0.10%, plus 6.50% per annum.

The Initial Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans are each scheduled to mature on February 8, 2026, unless the Convertible Debentures are outstanding six months prior to the December 19, 2024 maturity date thereof, in which case the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement matures on June 19, 2024. The Initial Term Loans may be voluntarily repaid at any time, but may be subject to a prepayment premium. The Initial Term Loans are required to be repaid under certain circumstances, including with Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement), the proceeds of an Asset Sale or Casualty Event (each as defined in the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement) and the proceeds of certain refinancing indebtedness.

The obligations under the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Loan Parties’ assets. The Amended 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants as well as a financial maintenance covenant that requires the Loan Parties to maintain a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement) of less than or equal to 7.00 to 1.00, tested at the end of each fiscal quarter. The Company was in compliance with all Amended 2021 Credit Agreement covenants as of December 31, 2023.

 

Revolving Credit Loans

The 2021 Credit Agreement also provides for an unfunded revolver commitment for borrowing up to $40.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Loans”). As of December 31, 2023, there was $39.4 million available capacity for borrowing under the revolving loan commitment due to the $0.6 million of letters of credit outstanding (See Note 14 – Commitments and contingencies).

Convertible Debentures

On December 19, 2019, the Company issued Convertible Debentures, which mature in 2024, in an aggregate principal amount of $200 million (the “Debentures” or the “Convertible Debentures”). At December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance due under the Debentures was $260.9 million and $244.8 million, respectively.

The Debentures will mature on December 19, 2024 unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased, and bear interest at an annual rate of 4.00% in cash, payable quarterly, and 4.00% in kind, accrued quarterly, on the last business day of March, June, September and December. In addition, on each anniversary of December 19, 2019 (the "Closing Date"), the Company will increase the principal amount of the Debentures by an amount equal to 3.00% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Debentures outstanding (subject to reduction for any principal amount repaid). The additional payment will accrue from the last payment date for the additional payment (or the Closing Date if no prior payment has been made), and will also be payable at maturity, upon conversion and upon an optional redemption.

At any time, upon notice as set forth in the Debentures, the Debentures will be redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Debentures redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

The Debentures are convertible into shares of common stock at the option of the Debenture holders at any time and from time to time at a price of $18 per share, subject to certain adjustments. However, in the event the Company elects to redeem any Debentures, the holders have a right to purchase common stock from the Company in an amount equal to the amount redeemed at the conversion price.

The Debentures contain covenants that limit the Company’s ability to, among other things: (i) incur additional debt; (ii) create liens on assets; (iii) engage in certain transactions with affiliates; or (iv) designate the Company’s subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. The Debentures provide for customary events of default, including non-payment, failure to comply with covenants or other agreements in the Debentures and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. Non-payment of, and certain failures to comply with the covenants under, the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement also constitute events of default under the Debentures. If an event of default occurs and continues, the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Debentures may declare the entire principal amount of all the Debentures to be due and payable immediately. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022 the Company was in compliance with all Debenture covenants.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company does not anticipate repaying the Convertible Debentures by June 19, 2024 and as such, the Term Loan debt of $291.8 million and the Convertible Debentures of $260.9 million are included in the current portion of long-term debt.

 

The Initial Term Loan borrowings related to the 2021 Credit Agreement were issued at an original issue discount of $6.0 million. The Convertible Debentures were issued at an original discount of $13.7 million. The original issue discount is amortized using the effective yield method over the respective term of each facility or debenture. Accretion of the original issue discount totaled $5.5 million and $4.0 million during the years ended December 31,

2023 and 2022, respectively. Amortization is recorded as interest expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.

The Company incurred Initial Term Loan closing fees related to the 2021 Credit Agreement of $1.3 million, along with Revolving Credit Loans closing fees of $0.7 million. The Initial Term Loan and Revolving Credit Loans closing fees were deferred on February 8, 2021 and are amortized over their respective terms. The Company incurred closing fees related to the Convertible Debentures of $0.9 million which were deferred on December 19, 2019 and are amortized over the term of the debentures. Amortization of debt issuance costs totaled $1 million and $0.6 million during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Note 8 – Equity incentive plan

On December 19, 2019, the Company adopted the 2019 Incentive Award Plan (the “2019 Plan”) under which eligible employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company may be granted incentive or non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, or other stock-based awards, including shares of common stock. Pursuant to the 2019 Plan, the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the 2019 Plan automatically increases on each January 1 (commencing with January 1, 2021) until and including January 1, 2029, by an amount equal to the lesser of: (a) 5% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year and (b) such smaller number of shares as is determined by our Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Compensation Committee of the Board approved an increase to the share reserve as set out in the 2019 Plan in the amount of 2,416,007 shares in April 2023 and 2,134,227 shares in February 2022, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, 14,176,685 shares of Common Stock were reserved under the 2019 Plan, of which 2,771,329 shares of Common Stock remained available for issuance.

Time-based vesting stock options

Time-based vesting stock options generally vest over a three-year period, are subject to graded vesting schedules, and expire ten years from the date of grant or within 90 days of termination. The weighted-average fair value per share of time-based vesting stock options granted by the Company was $1.05 and $2.55 during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 the Company recognized $1.9 million and $3.9 million of stock-based compensation expense in connection with time-based stock options, respectively. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there was $1.9 million and $2.8 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense, respectively, related to unvested time-based stock options that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.53 and 1.84 years, respectively.

Stock Option Valuation

The Company used valuation models to value the time-based vesting stock options granted during 2023 and 2022. The following table summarizes the assumptions used in the valuation models to determine the fair value of awards granted to employees and non-employee directors under the 2019 Plan:

 

 

Year Ended

Year Ended

Dividend yield

 

0%

 

0%

Risk free interest rate

 

3.61%

 

1.0 - 1.62%

A discussion of management’s methodology for developing each of the assumptions used in the valuation model follows:

Expected volatility – Volatility is a measure of the amount by which a financial variable such as a share price has fluctuated (historical volatility) or is expected to fluctuate (expected volatility) during a period. The Company uses an estimated volatility based on the historical and implied volatilities of comparable companies.
Expected term – This is the period that the options granted are expected to remain unexercised. For options granted during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company derived the expected life of the option based on the average midpoint between vesting and the contractual term as there is little exercise history.
Dividend yield – The Company has never declared or paid dividends and have no plans to do so in the foreseeable future.
Risk-free interest rate – This is the U.S. Treasury rate for securities with similar terms that most closely resembles the expected life of the option.
Forfeiture rate - Forfeitures are included in compensation cost as they occur.

Restricted stock units

Periodically, the Company granted RSUs to certain employees which are subject to certain vesting criteria. These RSUs become eligible to begin vesting upon a liquidity event (as defined in the award agreements governing the RSUs). The amount and timing of the vesting of the RSUs depends on the type and timing of the liquidity event as it relates to the Closing Date. Generally, a portion of the RSUs were scheduled to first vest upon the occurrence of the liquidity event and the remainder were scheduled to vest in up to three annual installments thereafter. Because no liquidity event occurred before the third anniversary of the Closing Date, all RSUs are scheduled to vest immediately upon a future liquidity event.

 

The Company determined the achievement of the liquidity event was not probable and therefore no expense has been recorded related to the performance-based awards that vest solely upon a liquidity event.

 

Performance based restricted stock units

During 2023 and 2022, the Company granted 369,056 and 463,000 performance based RSUs to certain employees, respectively, 50% of which vest based on the achievement of annual consolidated revenue targets and 50% of which vest based on the achievement of certain annual Nebula revenue targets. These units will vest over three annual installments based on the achievement of the annual consolidated revenue and Nebula revenue performance conditions and are not subject to any liquidity event vesting condition. In the event that the performance conditions are not met in the first or second year, all units granted will vest in the third year if the cumulative performance conditions are met at that time. The grant of awards with performance conditions supports the Company’s goal of aligning executive incentives with long-term stockholder value and ensuring that executive officers have a continuing stake in the long-term success of the Company.

 

The Company determined the three-year achievement of the overall Company revenue and Nebula revenue targets was probable and incurred $0.9 million and $0.7 million of stock-based compensation expense for the years-ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, for the performance based RSUs.

 

The vesting of the RSUs held by a grantee is generally subject to his or her continued employment with the Company.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the vesting of 73,726 performance-based RSUs previously granted to certain employees. The shares issued upon the vesting of the RSUs were distributed to the employees during the second quarter.

Time-based restricted stock units

During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company granted to certain non-employee directors 338,349 and 100,000 stock awards, respectively. These stock awards were issued to non-employee directors in satisfaction of their annual retainer payments and vest over a one-year or three-year period. Accordingly, the Company recognized the grant-date fair value of the restricted stock units of $0.7 million as stock-based compensation expense for each of the years ended years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

The following table summarizes the Company’s RSU activity for performance based RSUs awarded to employees and for time-based RSUs granted to non-employee directors under the 2019 Plan:

Note 9 – Equity

The Company is authorized to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The holders of the Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets legally available at the time and in the amounts as the Company’s Board of Directors may from time to time determine. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company shall be distributed ratably among the holders of the then outstanding common stock.

 

During 2022, the Company settled earn-out obligations by issuing 128,596 shares of common stock.

Warrants

On the Closing Date, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company assumed (i) 23,000,000 warrants (the “Public Warrants”) to purchase shares of Common Stock and (ii) 6,350,000 Private Warrants (together with the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”). The Public Warrants qualify for equity accounting as these warrants do not fall within the scope of ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. The Public Warrants were measured at fair value at the time of issuance and classified as equity. The Company has determined that the Private Warrants fall within the scope of ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and therefore these warrants are classified as liabilities and measured at fair value at each reporting period.

Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock for $11.50 per share. If held by the initial purchaser of the Private Warrant or certain permitted transferees, the purchase can occur on a cashless basis. The warrants will expire on December 19, 2024 or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

If the reported last sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders, the Company may redeem all the Public Warrants at a price of $0.01 per warrant upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a cashless basis. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. The warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of common stock at a price below its exercise price. The Company will not be required to net cash settle the warrants.

The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants except that the Private Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

Shares Subject to Forfeiture

On the Closing Date, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, 550,000 shares of common stock held by Pivotal Acquisition Holdings LLC are subject to an additional lockup that will be released only if the last reported sale price of the common stock equals or exceeds $15.00 for a period of 20 consecutive trading days during the five-year period following the Closing Date. If the last reported sale price of common stock does not equal or exceed $15.00 within five years from the Closing Date, such shares will be forfeited to the Company for no consideration. These shares are reported as outstanding in our financial statements and continue to be subject to the additional lockup as of December 31, 2023.

At December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had tax effected U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $29.2 million and $31.5 million, respectively, of which $0.5 million begin to expire in 2027, approximately $20.2 million begin to expire between 2028 and 2036, and $8.5 million have no expiration. At December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had tax effected state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $7.0 million and $7.4 million, respectively. The majority of the state tax losses will not begin expiring until 2035 or later.

The tax effected foreign net operating loss at December 31, 2023 and 2022 is approximately $2.4 million and $3.0 million, respectively, the majority of which has an unlimited carryforward period.

The Company operates in multiple tax jurisdictions and, in the normal course of business, its tax returns are subject to examination by various taxing authorities. Such examinations may result in future assessments by these taxing authorities. The Company is subject to examination by U.S. tax authorities beginning with the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company is also subject to examination in various foreign jurisdictions. In material foreign jurisdictions, the statute of limitations ranges onefour years from the filing of a tax return.

Valuation Allowance

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had a valuation allowance of $103.3 million and $91.9 million, respectively, against certain deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance relates to the deferred tax assets of the Company’s U.S. entities, including federal and state tax attributes and timing differences, as well as the deferred tax assets of certain foreign subsidiaries. The increase in the valuation allowance during 2023 is primarily related to operating losses incurred during the year and the limitation on deductibility of interest expense. To the extent the Company determines that, based on the weight of available evidence, all or a portion of its valuation allowance is no longer necessary, the Company will recognize an income tax benefit in the period such determination is made for the reversal of the valuation allowance. If management determines that, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that all or a portion of the net deferred tax assets will not be realized; the Company may recognize income tax expense in the period such determination is made to increase the valuation allowance. It is possible that such reduction of or addition to the Company’s valuation allowance may have a material impact on the Company’s results from operations. The U.S. federal and foreign changes to valuation allowance of approximately $9.1 million is presented in the effective tax rate reconciliation as part of the valuation allowance. The U.S. state changes to valuation allowance of approximately $3.2 million is presented as part of the state taxes in the effective tax rate reconciliation. As of December 31, 2023, there is approximately $0.1 million of valuation allowance movement that is attributable to translation adjustment and $1.0 million of valuation allowance included in the effective tax rate reconciliation as part of the other adjustments.

Uncertain Tax Positions

 

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively, that would favorably impact the Company’s effective income tax rate if realized. However, due to the Company’s determination that the deferred tax asset would not more-likely-than-not be realized, a full valuation allowance would be recorded if the unrecognized tax benefits were realized. The Company’s uncertain income tax position liability has been recorded to deferred income taxes to offset the tax attribute carryforward amounts. There was no change to the uncertain tax position liability during the year.

Organization

Organization

KLDiscovery Inc. (the “Company,” “we” or “us”) is a leading global provider of eDiscovery, information governance and data recovery solutions to corporations, law firms, insurance companies and individuals in 17 countries around the world. We provide technology solutions to help our clients solve complex data challenges. The Company’s headquarters are located in Eden Prairie, Minnesota. The Company has 26 locations in 17 countries, as well as 9 data centers and 13 data recovery labs globally.

The Company was originally incorporated under the name Pivotal Acquisition Corp. (“Pivotal”) as a blank check company on August 2, 2018 under the laws of the State of Delaware for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities.

On December 19, 2019, Pivotal acquired the outstanding shares of LD Topco, Inc. via a reverse capitalization (the “Business Combination”) and was renamed KLDiscovery Inc.

Principles of consolidation

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of KLDiscovery and all its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Liquidity and going concern evaluation

Liquidity and going concern evaluation

 

Under Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Going Concern, the Company is required to evaluate each reporting period, including interim periods, whether there is substantial doubt regarding its ability to meet its obligations when they come due within one year from the financial statement issuance date. On February 8, 2021, certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Loan Parties”), entered into a new secured credit agreement (the “2021 Credit Agreement”) and on March 3, 2023, the Loan Parties entered into the First Amendment to the 2021 Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Amended 2021 Credit Agreement”). In addition, on December 19, 2019, the Company issued Convertible Debentures, which mature in 2024, in an aggregate principal amount of $200 million (the “Debentures” or the “Convertible Debentures”). The Amended 2021 Credit Agreement provides for (i) initial term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $300 million (the “Initial Term Loans”), (ii) delayed draw term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $50 million (the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”), and (iii) revolving credit loans in an aggregate principal amount of $40 million, with a letter of credit sublimit of $10 million (the Revolving Credit Loans”). The Initial Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans are each scheduled to mature on February 8, 2026, unless the Convertible Debentures are outstanding six months prior to the December 19, 2024 maturity date thereof, in which case the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement matures on June 19, 2024. The Company has historically incurred losses and in certain years cash flows have been negative. As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s cash balance was $15.4 million and the Company’s debt balance was $546.8 million, including a balance of $260.9 million under the Convertible Debentures and a balance of $291.8 million in Initial Term Loans under the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement (no amounts were outstanding under the Delayed Draw Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans). As of December 31, 2023, the Company does not anticipate repaying the Convertible Debentures by June 19, 2024 and as such, the Initial Term Loans debt of $291.8 million and the Convertible Debentures of $260.9 million are included in the current portion of long-term debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand, and does not expect to generate sufficient liquidity from forecasted future cash flows to repay its current obligations including the Initial Term Loans, at the accelerated maturity date, or the Convertible Debentures.

 

The Company is reviewing potential alternatives, including renegotiating the terms of the Convertible Debentures and/or the Amended 2021 Credit Agreement and identifying alternative sources for cash or additional financing. The Company's current debt structure, however, raises substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern because these or other alternatives may not be achievable on favorable terms and conditions or at all. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty and have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

Use of estimates

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Although actual results could differ from those estimates, management does not believe that such differences would be material.

 

Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the fair value of Private Warrants (as defined in Note 2), the determination of the incremental borrowing rate used to measure right-of-use assets and liabilities, the recoverability and useful lives of property and equipment, intangible assets, and other long-lived assets, the evaluation of goodwill for impairment, the valuation and realization of deferred income taxes, the fair value of the Company’s common stock, stock based compensation equity awards and acquisition-related contingent consideration.

Segments, concentration of credit risk, major customers and liquidity

Segments, concentration of credit risk, major customers and liquidity

The Company operates in one business segment, providing technology-based litigation support solutions and services.

Financial instruments, which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with a banking institution where the balances, at times, exceed federally insured limits. Management believes the risks associated with these deposits are limited.

 

With respect to accounts receivable, the Company performs ongoing evaluations of its customers, generally grants uncollateralized credit terms to its customers, and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical experience and management’s expectations of future losses. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company did not have a single customer that represented more than five percent (5%) or more of their consolidated revenues or accounts receivable and, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 the Company had one single customer that represented approximately six percent (6%) of our consolidated revenues and one single customer that represented approximately six percent (6%) of our consolidated accounts receivable. The Company believes that the geographic and industry diversity of the Company’s customer base throughout the U.S. and internationally minimizes the risk of incurring material losses due to concentrations of credit risk. The Company’s foreign revenues, principally from businesses in the UK and Germany, totaled approximately $52.6 million and $49.6 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company’s long-lived assets in foreign countries, principally in the UK and Germany, totaled approximately $27.0 million and 25.9 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

As disclosed in Note 6, the Company has significant outstanding debt that comes due in 2024. While the Company is exploring various options to refinance the debt, new financings may not be available to the Company on commercially acceptable terms, or at all.

Foreign currency

Foreign currency

Results of operations for the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated from the designated functional currency to the reporting currency of the U.S. dollar. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for each month, while assets and liabilities are translated at balance sheet date exchange rates. Resulting net translation adjustments are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity in “Accumulated other comprehensive income.”

Transaction gains and losses arising from currency exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the local functional currency are included in “Other expense” on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. Such transaction gains and losses may be realized or unrealized depending upon whether the transaction settled during the period or remains outstanding at the balance sheet date.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable

The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses for its financial instruments, which is primarily comprised of accounts receivable. The measurement and recognition of credit losses involves the use of judgment and represents management’s estimate of expected lifetime credit losses based on historical experience and trends, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Management’s assessment of expected credit losses includes consideration of current and expected economic, market and industry factors affecting the Company’s customers, including their financial condition; the aging of account balances; historical credit loss experience; customer concentrations; customer credit-worthiness; and other sources of payment, among other factors.

 

Management evaluates its experience with historical losses and then applies this historical loss ratio to financial assets with similar characteristics. The Company’s historical loss ratio or its determination of risk pools may be adjusted for changes in customer, economic, market or other circumstances. The Company may also establish an allowance for credit losses for specific receivables when it is probable that a specific receivable will not be collected and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Amounts are written off against the allowance when they are considered to be uncollectible, and reversals of previously reserved amounts are recognized if a specifically reserved item is settled for an amount exceeding the previous estimate. Recoveries of trade accounts receivable previously written off are recorded when received.

 

Estimates of collectability are subject to significant change during times of economic weakness or uncertainty in either the overall economy or within the industries served by the Company. Management actively monitors these factors and assesses the sufficiency of its allowance for credit losses on an ongoing basis, including the potential effects of trends in end-market volatility and/or other macroeconomic factors on the credit quality of the Company’s customers and/or its financial assets, such as the current market environment of elevated interest rates and inflation.

Fixed Assets

Computer software, property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the assets:

 

Computer software and hardware

 

3 to 5 years

Leasehold improvements

 

Shorter of lease term or useful life

Furniture, fixtures and other equipment

 

3 to 5 years

 

Gains or losses on disposals are included in results of operations at amounts equal to the difference between the net book value of the disposed assets and the proceeds received upon disposal. Costs for replacements and betterments are capitalized, while the costs of maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Finance leases right of use assets are included in Property and equipment and are stated at the present value of minimum lease payments and subsequently amortized using the straight-line method over the earlier of the end of the asset's useful life or the end of the lease term.

Depreciation expense totaled $10.0 million and $9.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and includes amortization of assets recorded under finance leases. For additional information on leases, refer to Note 5 – Leases.

Internal-use software development costs

Internal-use software development costs

The Company capitalizes certain internal computer software costs incurred during the application development stage. The application development stage generally includes software design and configuration, coding, testing and installation activities. Training and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred, while upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if it is probable that such expenditure will result in additional functionality. Capitalized software costs are depreciated over the estimated useful life of the underlying project on a straight-line basis. The Company’s estimated useful life of capitalized software costs varies between three and five years, depending on management’s expectation of the economic life of various software. Capitalized software amortization costs are recorded as a component of cost of revenue.

Capitalized software costs are reflected as part of the “Intangible assets, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and totaled $20.0 million and $17.5 million, net of accumulated amortization, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

The Company also enters into certain cloud-based software hosting arrangements that are accounted for as service contracts. For internal use software obtained through a hosting arrangement that is in the nature of a service contract, the Company incurs certain implementation costs such as integrating, configuring, and software customization, which are consistent with costs incurred during the application development stage for on-premise software. The Company applies the same guidance to determine costs that are eligible for capitalization. For these arrangements, the Company amortizes the capitalized development costs straight-line over the fixed, non-cancellable term of the associated hosting arrangement plus any reasonably certain renewal periods. The Company also applies the same impairment model to both internal-use software and capitalized implementation costs in a software hosting arrangement that is in the nature of a service contract.

 

Capitalized implementation costs of cloud-based hosting arrangements are classified as part of Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets, totaling $1.8 million and $9.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2023, and $1.7 million and $7.8 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2022. Amortization of capitalized implementation costs related to hosting arrangements totaled $1.8 million and $1.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Intangible assets and other long-lived assets

Intangible assets and other long-lived assets

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of any asset to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the difference between the fair value of the asset compared to its carrying amount.

Amortization expense totaled $15.9 million and $20.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively; $5.8 million and $10.0 million of which was classified as part of the “Cost of revenues” line in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.

Goodwill

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the total consideration paid over identified intangible and tangible assets of the business acquired. The Company tests its goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis on October 1, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, or sale or disposition of a significant portion of a reporting unit. As of the October 1 testing date the Company determined there is one reporting unit.

Goodwill impairment exists when the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If impairment exists, the carrying value of the goodwill is reduced by the excess through an impairment charge recorded in the Company’s statements of operations. The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is subjective and requires significant judgment at many points during the analysis.

The fair value of the Company’s reporting unit is estimated using a combination of a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis and market-based valuation methodologies such as comparable public company trading values. Determining fair value requires the exercise of significant judgments, including the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, long-term growth rates, discount rates and relevant comparable public company earnings multiples. The cash flows employed in the DCF analyses are based on the Company’s best estimate of future sales, earnings and cash flows after considering factors such as general market conditions, changes in working capital, long term business plans and recent operating performance. The carrying value of the reporting unit includes the assets and liabilities employed in its operations and goodwill.

Based on the results of the annual impairment test as of October 1, 2023 and the quantitative assessment performed as of December 31, 2023, the Company concluded that the fair value of its reporting unit exceeded the individual reporting unit’s carrying value, and goodwill was not impaired.

Business Combinations

Business Combinations

The Company applies ASC 805, Business Combinations, when accounting for business combinations, utilizing the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method, the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest are recorded at their respective fair values on the acquisition date. Goodwill is identified as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Management relies on significant estimates and assumptions, utilizing third-party valuations like appraisals or internal valuations based on discounted cash flow analyses or other methods, to assess the values of assets and liabilities. While these estimates and assumptions are considered reasonable and appropriate, they remain inherently uncertain and subject to change. If additional information about facts and circumstances related to the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities emerges within the measurement period (not exceeding one year), the Company may adjust its estimates to account for subsequent changes to the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date, resulting in an offsetting adjustment to the goodwill associated with the acquired business. Other revisions to fair value estimates for acquisitions are reflected as income or expense, as appropriate. The Company expenses acquisition-related costs as they are incurred.

Consideration paid generally consists of cash and, from time to time, shares, and potential future payments that are contingent upon the acquired business achieving certain levels of earnings in the future, also referred to as

“contingent consideration” or “earn-outs.” Any contingent consideration is estimated at fair value at the acquisition date. Liability-classified contingent consideration is remeasured each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings until the contingent consideration is settled.
 

On November 20, 2023, the Company closed the acquisition of certain assets of Cenza Technologies Private Limited ("Cenza"), a leading firm in the legal outsourcing and technology services sector. The consideration for this acquisition comprised an initial cash payment of $3.0 million, primarily allocated to goodwill, and deferred contingent consideration of $1.3 million. The contingent consideration, a two-year liability, is contingent upon Cenza meeting specific revenue targets at the end of each year. The earnout, if achieved in a given year, will be paid in the amount of $650,000 distributed at the end of the corresponding year in which the target is achieved. If the initial target is not achieved at the end of the first year, but the full target is achieved at the end of the second year, the full $1.3 million will be distributed at such time.

Debt issuance costs

Debt issuance costs

Debt issuance costs are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization, and are amortized over the term of the debt using both the straight-line and the effective yield methods. U.S. GAAP requires that the effective yield method be used to amortize debt acquisition costs; however, if the effect of using the straight-line method is not materially different from the results that would have been obtained under the effective yield method, the straight-line method may be used. The amortization for funded term debt is calculated according to the effective yield method and revolving and unfunded term debt is calculated according to the straight-line method. Debt issuance costs related to funded term debt is presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability, consistent with debt discounts or premiums. Debt issuance costs related to revolving and unfunded term debt is presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within “Other assets.” For additional information on leases, refer to Note 6 – Long Term Debt.

Revenue recognition

Revenue recognition

Revenues are recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring goods or services promised in a contract to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to receive in exchange for those services. Performance obligations in the Company's contracts represent distinct or separate service streams that the Company provides to its customers.

The Company evaluates its revenue contracts with customers based on the five-step model under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue Recognition: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to separate performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenues when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company provides Legal Technology services to its clients through several technology solutions including Nebula Ecosystem (“Nebula”) its internally developed end-to-end fully integrated proprietary solution. The Company also provide Data Recovery solutions.

Performance Obligations and Timing of Revenue Recognition

The Company primarily sells services and products that fall into the categories discussed below. Each category contains one or more performance obligations that are either (1) capable of being distinct (i.e., the customer can benefit from the product or service on its own or together with readily available resources, including those purchased separately from us) and distinct within the context of the contract (i.e., separately identified from other promises in the contract) or (2) a series of distinct products or services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer.

 

(1)
Legal Technology, including Nebula and the Company's expansive suite of technology solutions, such as its end-to-end eDiscovery technology solutions, managed review solutions, collections, processing, analytics, hosting, production and professional services, and
(2)
Data recovery solutions, which provides data restoration, data erasure and data management services

The Company generates the majority of its revenues by providing Legal Technology services to our clients. Most of our eDiscovery service contracts are time and materials types of arrangements.

Time and materials arrangements are based on units of data stored or processed. Unit-based revenues are recognized as services are provided, based on either the amount of data stored or processed, the number of concurrent users accessing the information, or the number of pages or images processed for a client, at agreed upon per unit rates. We recognize revenues for these arrangements at a point in time utilizing a right-to-invoice practical expedient because we have a right to consideration for services completed to date.

Certain other eDiscovery contracts are subscription-based, fixed-fee arrangements, which have tiered pricing based on the quantity of data hosted. For a fixed monthly fee, our clients receive a variety of optional eDiscovery services, which are included in addition to the data hosting. The Company recognizes revenues for these arrangements at a point in time based on predetermined monthly fees as determined in our contractual agreements, utilizing a right-to-invoice practical expedient because the Company has a right to consideration for services completed to date.

Other eDiscovery agreements are time and material arrangements that require the client to pay us based on the number of hours worked at contractually agreed-upon rates. The Company recognizes revenues for these arrangements at a point in time based on hours incurred and contracted rates utilizing a right-to-invoice practical expedient because it has a contractual right to consideration for services completed to date.

Data recovery services are mainly fixed fee arrangements requiring the client to pay a pre-established fee in exchange for the successful completion of a data recovery on a predetermined device. For the recovery services performed by the Company’s technicians, the revenue is recognized at a point in time, when the recovered data is sent to the customer.

Data erasure services are fixed fee arrangements for which revenue is recognized at a point in time, when the certificate of erasure is sent to the customer.

 

The Company offers term license subscriptions to Ontrack PowerControls software to customers with on-premises installations of the software pursuant to contracts that are historically one to four years in length. The term license subscriptions include maintenance and support, as well as access to future software upgrades and patches. The license and the additional support services are deemed to be one performance obligation, and thus revenue for these arrangements is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement.

Share-based compensation

Share-based compensation

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all share-based awards to employees based on estimated grant date fair values on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model, depending on terms, facts and circumstances of each share-based award. The expected vesting of the Company’s performance-based RSUs is based upon the probability of a liquidity event, such

as a change in control as defined under the 2019 Plan. The probability of achievement of the liquidity event, if any, is re-evaluated quarterly.

Advertising

Advertising

Advertising costs consist of marketing, advertising through print and other media, professional event sponsorship and public relations. These costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs totaled $3.1 million and $4.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Advertising costs are reflected within “Sales and marketing” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss.

Research and development expense

Research and development expense

Costs incurred in the research and development of the Company’s technologies primarily consist of developer salaries. Research and development expenses were $13.1 million and $13.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Income taxes

Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences in recognizing certain income, expense and credit items for financial reporting purposes and tax reporting purposes. Such deferred income taxes primarily relate to the difference between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to the future years in which deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be settled or realized. Excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recognized in the income tax provision in the period in which they occur.

The Company records a valuation allowance when it determines, based on available positive and negative evidence, that it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company determines the realizability of its deferred tax assets primarily based on the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences. In addition, the Company considers the time frame over which it would take to utilize the deferred tax assets prior to their expiration.

For uncertain tax positions, the Company uses a more-likely-than-not threshold based on the technical merits of the tax position taken. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefits determined on a cumulative probability basis, which are more-likely-than-not to be realized upon ultimate settlement in the financial statements. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

Net Loss per Common Share

Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is determined by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per common share is determined by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year, plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, including stock options and restricted shares. Common stock and common stock equivalents included in the computation represent shares issuable upon assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and release of restricted shares, except when the effect of their inclusion would be antidilutive.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards and Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

 

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments using a modified retrospective approach. This guidance is intended to introduce a revised approach to the recognition and measurement of credit losses, emphasizing an updated model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), and related amendments, on a modified retrospective approach, which allows entities to initially apply the standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, if any, in the period of adoption with no restatement of comparative periods. Upon adoption, the Company applied the guidance to all existing leases.

 

The new guidance requires the lease rights and obligations arising from the leasing arrangements, including operating leases, to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The present value of lease payments is determined primarily using the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date. As the Company’s leases do not have readily determinable implicit discount rates, the Company adjusts its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. There were estimates and judgments made in determining the Company’s incremental borrowing rates based on term, country and currency, including developing a secured credit rating and spreading market yield data across maturities.

 

Upon adoption of the new guidance, the most significant impact was the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities relating to operating leases in the amounts of $21.2 million and $23.8 million, respectively, reported within Operating lease right-of-use assets and Long-term operating lease liabilities, respectively, with the current portion of the liability reported within current portion of operating lease liabilities, in the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022. Accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged and continues to be reported within "Property and equipment, net" and “Other liabilities”, with the current portion of the debt reported within “Accounts payable and accrued expense”, in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. There was no cumulative effect of applying the new standard and accordingly there was no adjustment to our retained earnings upon adoption. The Company has elected not to recognize operating right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases for all classes of underlying assets. Short-term leases are leases with terms greater than 1 month, but less than 12 months. The Company elected to apply the package of transitional practical expedients under which the Company did not reassess prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification. For additional information on leases, refer to Note 5 – Leases.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

The Company has elected to be an Emerging Growth Company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act and take advantage of the extended transition period of delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. This may make the comparison of the Company’s consolidated financial statements to other public companies not meaningful due to the differences in accounting standards being applied.

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and other segment items and requires companies to disclose all annual disclosures about segments in interim periods. This ASU also requires public entities with a single reportable segment to provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and all existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. The amendments in this ASU are intended to improve financial reporting by requiring disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis for all public entities to enable investors to develop more decision-useful financial analyses. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and the amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. Investors, lenders, creditors, and other allocators of capital (collectively, “investors”) indicated that the existing income tax disclosures should be enhanced to provide information to better assess how an entity’s operations and related tax risks and tax planning and operational opportunities affect its tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. Investors currently rely on the rate reconciliation table and other disclosures, including total income taxes paid, to evaluate income tax risks and opportunities. While investors find these disclosures helpful, they suggested possible enhancements to better (1)

understand an entity’s exposure to potential changes in jurisdictional tax legislation and the ensuing risks and opportunities, (2) assess income tax information that affects cash flow forecasts and capital allocation decisions, and (3) identify potential opportunities to increase future cash flows.

 

The amendments in this ASU addresses investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information.

 

This ASU also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. This ASU is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company does not expect ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
