Basis of Presentation and Nature of Business
1. Basis of Presentation and Nature of Business
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 24, 2026. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
On July 2, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), Alight Holding Company, LLC (the "Predecessor" or "Alight Holdings") completed a business combination (the "Business Combination") with a special purpose acquisition company. On the Closing Date, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the special purpose acquisition company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Alight, Inc. (“Alight”, the “Company”, “we” “us” “our” or the “Successor”). As of March 31, 2026, Alight owned approximately 99% of the economic interest in the Predecessor, had 100% of the voting power and controlled the management of the Predecessor. The non-voting ownership percentage held by noncontrolling interest was less than 1% as of March 31, 2026.
On July 12, 2024, the Company, completed the sale (the “Transaction”) of Alight's Payroll & HCM Outsourcing business (the "Divestiture" or "Divested Business") within the Employer Solutions segment. As a result of this agreement, the results of the Company’s Payroll and Professional Services businesses are reported separately as discontinued operations, net of tax, in our condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.
Nature of Business
We are a technology-enabled services company delivering human capital management solutions to many of the world's largest and most complex organizations. This includes the implementation and administration of employee benefits (e.g., health, wealth and leaves) solutions. Alight’s numerous solutions and services are utilized year-round by employees and their family members in support of their overall health, wealth and wellbeing goals. Participants can access their solutions digitally, including through a mobile application on Alight Worklife®, our intuitive, cloud-based employee engagement platform.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Significant Accounting Policies
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The adoption of ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. There have been no other material changes to our significant accounting policies from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses
The Company holds an allowance for expected credit losses with respect to trade receivables and contract assets that is based on a combination of factors, including evaluation of historical write-offs, current conditions and reasonable economic forecasts that affect collectability and other qualitative and quantitative analysis. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient that allows the Company to assume that conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of the asset when developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses. Receivables, net included an allowance for expected credit losses of $5 million and $6 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of reserves and expenses.
These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Management believes its estimates to be reasonable given the current facts available. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Illiquid credit markets, volatile equity markets, and foreign currency exchange rate movements increase the uncertainty inherent in such estimates and assumptions. As future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment would, if applicable, be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.
New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which provides all entities with a practical expedient in developing a reasonable and supportable forecast as part of estimating current expected credit losses assuming that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The Company adopted this standard prospectively during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and it did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Topic 220), which requires disclosure in the notes to financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses. This guidance will be effective for the annual periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance may be applied retrospectively or prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the standard to determine the impact of adoption to its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Accounting for and Disclosure of Software Costs, which improves the operability of the guidance by removing all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods. Moving forward, the amendments will require an entity to capitalize software costs when a set of two criteria are met. This guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance may be applied prospectively, using a modified transition approach, or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the standard to determine the impact of adoption to its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, which aims to improve the guidance in Topic 270, Interim Reporting, by improving the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarifying when that guidance is applicable. The amendments will be effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, entities can apply the amendments either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the standard to determine the impact of adoption to its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
3. Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The majority of the Company’s revenue is highly recurring and is derived from contracts with customers to provide integrated health, wealth, and leave administrative solutions that empower clients and their employees to manage their health, wealth and HR needs. The Company’s revenues are disaggregated by recurring and project revenues within the reportable segment. Recurring revenues are typically longer term in nature and more predictable on an annual basis, while project revenues consist of project work of a shorter duration and are therefore less predictable on an annual basis. See Note 12, “Segment Reporting” for quantitative disclosures of recurring and project revenues by reportable segment. The Company’s reportable segment is Employer Solutions. Employer Solutions is driven by our digital, software and AI-led capabilities powered by the Alight Worklife® platform and spanning total employee wellbeing and engagement, including integrated benefits administration, healthcare navigation, financial health and employee wellbeing. The Company believes the revenue categories within Employer Solutions depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to the customer in the amount that best reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those services. The majority of the Company’s revenue is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of our services. We may occasionally be entitled to a fee based on achieving certain performance criteria or contract milestones. To the extent that we cannot estimate with reasonable assurance the likelihood that we will achieve the performance target, we will constrain this portion of the transaction price and recognize it when or as the uncertainty is resolved. Any taxes assessed on revenues relating to services provided to our clients are recorded on a net basis. All of the Company’s revenues are described in more detail below.
Administrative Services
We provide benefits and human resource services across all of our solutions, which are highly recurring. The Company’s contracts may include administration services across one or multiple solutions and typically range from three to five years with mutual renewal options. These contracts typically consist of an implementation phase and an ongoing administration phase:
Implementation phase – In connection with the Company’s long-term agreements, implementation efforts are often necessary to set up clients and their human resource or benefit programs on the Company’s systems and operating processes. Work performed during the implementation phase is considered a set-up activity because it does not transfer a service to the customer. Therefore, it is not a separate performance obligation. As these agreements are longer term in nature, our contracts generally provide that if the client terminates a contract, we are entitled to an additional payment for services performed through the termination date designed to recover our up-front costs of implementation. Any fees received from the customer as part of the implementation are, in effect, an advance payment for the future ongoing administration services to be provided.
Ongoing administration services phase – For all solutions, the ongoing administration phase includes a variety of plan and system support services. More specifically, these services include data management, calculations, reporting, fulfillment/communications, compliance services, call center support, and in our Health Solutions agreements, annual on-boarding and enrollment support. While there are a variety of activities performed across all solutions, the overall nature of the obligation is to provide integrated administration solutions to the customer. The agreement represents a stand-ready obligation to perform these activities across all solutions on an as-needed basis. The customer obtains value from each period of service, and each time increment (i.e., each month, or each benefit cycle in the case of our Health Solutions arrangements) is distinct and the activities are performed substantially the same. Accordingly, the ongoing administration services for each solution represents a series and each series (i.e., each month, or each benefit cycle including the enrollment period in the case of our Health Solutions arrangements) of distinct services are deemed to be a single performance obligation. In agreements that include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price related to each performance obligation is based on a relative stand-alone selling price basis. We establish the stand-alone selling price using a suitable estimation method, which includes a market assessment approach using observable market prices the Company charges separately for similar solutions to similar customers, or an expected cost plus margin approach.
Our contracts with our clients specify the terms and conditions upon which the services are based. Fees for these services are primarily based on a contracted fee charged per participant per period (e.g., monthly or annually, as applicable). These contracts may also include fixed components, including lump-sum implementation fees. Our fees are not typically payable until the commencement of the ongoing administration phase. Once fees become payable, payment is typically due on a monthly basis as we perform under the contract, and we are entitled to be reimbursed for work performed to date in the event of termination.
For Health Solutions administration services, each benefits cycle inclusive of the enrollment period represents a time increment under the series guidance and is a single performance obligation. Although ongoing fees are typically not payable until the commencement of the ongoing administrative phase, we begin transferring services to our customers approximately four months prior to payments being due as part of our annual enrollment services. Although our per-participant fees are considered variable, they are typically predictable in nature, and therefore we do not generally constrain any portion of our transaction price estimates. We use an input method based on the labor costs incurred relative to total labor costs as the measure of progress in satisfying our Health Solutions performance obligation commencing when the customer’s annual enrollment services begin. Given that the Health Solutions enrollment and administrative services are stand-ready in nature, it can be difficult to estimate the total expected efforts or hours we will incur for a particular benefits cycle. Therefore, the input measure is based on the historical effort expended, which is measured as labor cost.
In the normal course of business, we enter into change orders or other contract modifications to add or modify services provided to the customer. We evaluate whether these modifications should be accounted for as separate contracts
or a modification to an existing contract. To the extent that the modification changes a promise that forms part of the underlying series, the modification is not accounted for as a separate contract.
Other Contracts
In addition to the ongoing administration services, the Company also has services across all solutions that represent separate performance obligations and that are often shorter in duration, such as our participant financial advisory services and enrollment services not bundled with ongoing administration services.
Fee arrangements can be in the form of fixed-fee, time-and-materials, or fees based on assets under management. Payment is typically due on a monthly basis as we perform under the contract, and we are entitled to be reimbursed for work performed to date in the event of termination.
Services may represent stand-ready obligations that meet the series provision, in which case all variable consideration is allocated to each distinct time increment.
Other services are recognized over time based on a method that faithfully depicts the transfer of value to the customer, which may be based on the value of labor hours worked or time elapsed, depending on the facts and circumstances.
The majority of the fees for enrollment services not bundled with ongoing administration services may be in the form of commissions received from insurance carriers for policy placement and are variable in nature. These annual enrollment services include employer-sponsored arrangements that place both retiree Medicare coverage and voluntary benefits. Our performance obligations under these annual enrollment services are typically completed over a short period upon which a respective policy is placed or confirmed with no ongoing fulfillment obligations. For the employer-sponsored arrangements, we recognize the majority of the placement revenue in the fourth quarter of the calendar year, which is when most of the placement or renewal activity occurs. However, the Company may continue to receive commissions from carriers until the respective policy lapses or is canceled. The Company bases the estimates of total transaction price on supportable evidence from an analysis of past transactions, and only includes amounts that are probable of being received or not refunded. For the employer-sponsored arrangements, the estimated total transaction price may differ from the ultimate amount of commissions we may collect. Consequently, the estimate of total transaction price is adjusted over time as the Company receives confirmation of cash received, or as other information becomes available.
A portion of the Company's revenue is subscription-based where monthly fees are paid to the Company. The subscription-based revenue is recognized straight-line over the contract term, which is generally three years.
The Company has elected to apply practical expedients to not disclose the revenue related to unsatisfied performance obligations if (1) the contract has an original duration of one year or less, or (2) the variable consideration is allocated entirely to an unsatisfied performance obligation which is recognized as a series of distinct goods and services that form a single performance obligation.
Contract Costs
Costs to obtain a Contract
The Company capitalizes incremental costs to obtain a contract with a customer that are expected to be recovered. Assets recognized for the costs to obtain a contract, which primarily includes sales commissions paid in relation to the initial contract, are amortized over the expected life of the underlying customer relationships, which is 15 years for most of our solutions and 7 years for our leaves solutions. For situations where the duration of the contract is 1 year or less, the Company has applied a practical expedient and recognized the costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred. These costs are recorded in Cost of services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Costs to fulfill a Contract
The Company capitalizes costs to fulfill contracts which includes highly customized implementation efforts to set up clients and their human resource or benefit programs. Assets recognized for the costs to fulfill a contract are amortized on a systematic basis over the expected life of the underlying customer relationships, which is 7 years for our leaves solutions and 15 years for all of our other solutions. Amortization for all contracts costs is recorded in Cost of services, exclusive of depreciation and amortization in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), see Note 5, “Other Financial Data”.

4. Discontinued Operations
As disclosed in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Nature of Business”, on July 12, 2024, the Company closed on the sale of the Divested Business. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer agreed to acquire the Divested Business for total consideration of up to $1.2 billion, in the form of (1) $1.0 billion in cash (the “Closing Cash Consideration”) payable at the closing of the transactions (the “Closing”) contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, (2) a note with an aggregate principal amount of $50 million and a fair value of $35 million as of July 12, 2024 issued at Closing (the “Seller Note”) by an indirect parent of Buyer (the “Note Issuer”) and (3) contingent upon the financial performance of the Divested Business for the 2025 fiscal year, a note with an aggregate principal amount of up to $150 million (the “Additional Seller Note”) and an initial fair value of $43 million as of July 12, 2024 to be issued by the Note Issuer. The Seller Note has a stated interest rate of 8.0% which is expected to mature in July 2030. The Seller Note was measured at fair value as of July 12, 2024 on a nonrecurring basis, by calculating the interest of the Seller Note, which is expected to be paid-in-kind, and discounting the principal and interest by applying a discount rate based on the Divested Business's estimated cost of debt.
In conjunction with the Divestiture, the Company entered into a Transition Services Agreement (the "TSA") with the Buyer. The TSA outlines the terms under which the Company would provide certain reimbursable post-closing services to support the business on a transitional basis for an initial period of up to 18 months, with the option to extend for an additional six months. As of March 31, 2026, the Company is no longer providing the majority of services originally agreed upon in the TSA.
TSA services income was immaterial and $10 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, which was recognized in Other (income) expense, net, with the corresponding expenses recorded in Cost of services and Selling, general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Pass-through costs of approximately $2 million and $15 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, were incurred under the TSA, which were netted against the equal and offsetting reimbursement amounts due from the Divested Business.
Revenue earned from customer care commercial services provided to the Divested Business was $9 million and $12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
The following table presents the results as reported in Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax, within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) (in millions):

The Company concluded that it controlled a portion of the Divested Business services subsequent to separation as a result of certain shared contractual relationships that had not been legally assigned as of March 31, 2026. As such, the Company determined it was the principal for these services and, therefore, the Company recorded $3 million and $24 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, of Revenue and Cost of services on a gross
basis within discontinued operations in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
The expense amounts reflected above represent only the direct costs attributable to the Divested Business and excludes allocations of corporate costs retained following the sale.

7. Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were 27% and 15%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was higher than the 21% U.S. statutory corporate income tax rate and primarily driven by the Company’s non-deductible expenses, tax credits, and changes in valuation allowance. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was lower than the 21% U.S. statutory corporate income tax rate. This difference was primarily due to the Company’s non-deductible expenses, tax credits, and changes in valuation allowance.

(1)The net balance for the Seventh Incremental Term Loans included unamortized debt issuance costs at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 of approximately $5 million and $5 million, respectively.
Term Loan
In January 2025, the Company entered into Amendment No. 11 to its credit agreement, dated as of May 1, 2017 (as amended from time to time, the "Credit Agreement") with a syndicate of lenders to establish a new class of Seventh Incremental Term Loans with an aggregate principal amount of $2,030 million and to reprice the outstanding Sixth Incremental Term Loans due August 31, 2028 by reducing the applicable rate from SOFR + 2.25% to SOFR + 1.75%.
Interest rates on the Term Loan borrowings are based on SOFR plus a margin. The Company is required to make principal payments at the end of each fiscal quarter based on defined terms in the Credit Agreement with the remaining principal balances due on the maturity dates.
The Company utilized swap agreements to fix a portion of the floating interest rates through December 2026 (see Note 13, “Derivative Financial Instruments” for additional information).
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company made total principal payments on the Incremental Term Loans of $5 million and $5 million, respectively.
Revolving Credit Facility
In August 2021, the Company entered into a $294 million revolving credit facility with a maturity date of August 31, 2026. In March 2023, the Company amended and upsized the revolving credit facility to $300 million and updated the benchmark reference rate from LIBOR to Term SOFR. In May 2025, the Company entered into Amendment No. 12 to the Credit Agreement, which increased the aggregate principal amount of its revolving credit facility to $330 million and extended the maturity date to May 31, 2030. At March 31, 2026, an immaterial amount of unused letters of credit related to insurance policies were issued under the revolving credit facility and there were no outstanding borrowings. The Company is required to make periodic payments for commitment fees and interest related to the revolving credit facility and outstanding letters of credit. During each of the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, the Company made immaterial payments related to these fees.
Financing Fees, Premiums and Interest Expense
The Company capitalized financing fees and premiums related to the term loans and revolving credit facility. These financing fees and premiums were recorded as an offset to the aggregate debt balances and are being amortized over the respective loan terms.
Total interest expense related to the debt instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025 was $28 million and $32 million, respectively. Interest expense is recorded in Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) and is net of interest rate swap derivative gains recognized and interest income.

Class A Common Stock
As of March 31, 2026, 526,775,729 shares of Class A Common Stock were outstanding. On July 2, 2024, all remaining shares of the previously unvested Class A Common Stock became fully vested. Holders of shares of Class A
Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share, and together with the holders of shares of Class B Common Stock, will participate ratably in any dividends declared by the Company’s Board of Directors.
Class B Common Stock
Upon the Closing Date of the Business Combination, certain equity holders of Alight Holdings received earnouts (the "Seller Earnouts") that resulted in the issuance of a total of 14,999,998 Class B instruments to the equity holders of the Predecessor. The equity holders of the Predecessor that exchanged their Predecessor Class A units for shares of Class A Common Stock in the Business Combination received shares of Class B Common Stock, and the equity holders of the Predecessor that continue to hold Class A units of Alight Holdings (“Continuing Unit holders”) received Class B common units of Alight Holdings.
The Class B Common Stock and Class B common units are not entitled to a vote and accrue dividends equal to amounts declared per corresponding share of Class A Common Stock and Class A unit; however, such dividends are paid if and when such share of Class B Common Stock or Class B unit converts into a share of Class A Common Stock or Class A unit. If any of the shares of Class B Common Stock or Class B common units do not vest on or before the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date, such shares or units will be automatically forfeited and cancelled for no consideration and will not be entitled to receive any cumulative dividend payments.
These Class B instruments are liability classified. Refer to Note 14, “Financial Instruments” for additional information. As further described below, there are two series of Class B instruments outstanding.
Class B-1
As of March 31, 2026, 4,955,297 shares of Class B-1 Common Stock were legally issued and outstanding. Shares of Class B-1 Common Stock vest and automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on a 1-for-1 basis if the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the shares of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share for 20 or more trading days within a consecutive 30-trading day period (or in the event of a change of control or liquidation event that implies a $12.50 per share valuation on a diluted basis).
To the extent any unvested share of Class B-1 Common Stock automatically converts into a share of Class A Common Stock, (i) such share or unit shall remain unvested in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement until it vests or is forfeited in accordance with the terms thereof and (ii) such share or unit shall be treated as unvested Class A consideration as if such share or unit was part of the unvested Class A consideration as of the Closing Date.
As of March 31, 2026, 2,544,702 Class B-1 common units of Alight Holdings were legally issued and outstanding. Class B-1 common units vest and automatically convert into Class A common units of Alight Holdings on a 1-for-1 basis if the VWAP of the shares of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share for 20 or more trading days within a consecutive 30-trading day period (or in the event of a change of control or liquidation event that implies a $12.50 per share valuation on a diluted basis).
Class B-2
As of March 31, 2026, 4,955,297 shares of Class B-2 Common Stock were legally issued and outstanding. Shares of Class B-2 Common Stock vest and automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on a 1-for-1 basis if the VWAP of the shares of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $15.00 per share for 20 or more trading days within a consecutive 30-trading day period (or in the event of a change of control or liquidation event that implies a $15.00 per share valuation on a diluted basis).
To the extent any unvested share of Class B-2 Common Stock automatically converts into a share of Class A Common Stock, (i) such share or unit shall remain unvested in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement until it vests or is forfeited in accordance with the terms thereof and (ii) such share or unit shall be treated as unvested Class A consideration as if such share or unit was part of the unvested Class A consideration as of the Closing Date.
As of March 31, 2026, 2,544,702 Class B-2 common units of Alight Holdings were legally issued and outstanding. Class B-2 common units vest and automatically convert into Class A common units of Alight Holdings on a 1-for-1 basis if the VWAP of the shares of Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $15.00 per share for 20 or more trading days within a consecutive 30-trading day period (or in the event of a change of control or liquidation event that implies a $15.00 per share valuation on a diluted basis).
Class B-3
As of March 31, 2026, 10,000,000 shares of Class B-3 Common Stock, par value $0.0001, were authorized. There were no shares of Class B-3 Common Stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2026.
Class V Common Stock
As of March 31, 2026, 484,358 shares of Class V Common Stock were legally issued and outstanding. Holders of Class V Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share and have no economic rights. The Class V Common Stock is held on a 1-for-1 basis with Class A Units in Alight Holdings held by Continuing Unit holders. The Class A Units, together with an equal number of shares of Class V Common Stock, can be exchanged for an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock.
Class Z Common Stock
As of March 31, 2026, there were no outstanding shares or units of Class Z Common Stock. Upon the Closing Date of the Business Combination, Class Z instruments were issued to the equity holders of the Predecessor. The equity holders of the Predecessor that exchanged their Predecessor Class A units for shares of Class A Common Stock in the Business Combination received shares of Class Z Common Stock, and the Continuing Unit holders received Class Z common units of Alight Holdings. The Class Z instruments were issued to the equity holders of the Predecessor to allow for the re-allocation of the consideration paid to the holders of unvested management equity (i.e., the unvested shares of Class A, Class B-1, and Class B-2 Common Stock) to the equity holders of the Predecessor in the event such equity is forfeited under the terms of the applicable award agreement and vested in connection with any such forfeiture.
Class A Units
Holders of Alight Holdings Class A units can exchange all or any portion of their Class A units, together with the cancellation of an equal number of shares of Class V Common Stock, for a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the number of exchanged Class A units. Alight has the option to cash settle any future exchange.
The Continuing Unit holders’ ownership of Class A units represents the noncontrolling interest of the Company, which is accounted for as permanent equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2026, there were 527,260,087 Class A Units outstanding, of which 526,775,729 are held by the Company and 484,358 are held by the noncontrolling interest of the Company.
The Alight Holdings limited liability company agreement contains provisions that require a one-to-one ratio is maintained between each class of Alight Holdings units held by Alight and its subsidiaries (including the Alight Group, Inc., but excluding subsidiaries of Alight Holdings) and the number of outstanding shares of the corresponding class of Alight common stock, subject to certain exceptions (including in respect of management equity in the form of options, rights or other securities which have not been converted into or exercised for Alight common stock). In addition, the Alight Holdings limited liability company agreement permits Alight, in its capacity as the managing member of Alight Holdings, to take actions to maintain such ratio, including undertaking stock splits, combinations, recapitalization and exercises of the exchange rights of holders of Alight Holdings units.
Share Repurchase Program
On August 1, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program (the "Program"), under which the Company may repurchase issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock from time to time, depending on market conditions and alternate uses of capital. The Program has no expiration date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The Program does not obligate the Company to purchase any particular number of shares and there is no guarantee as to any number of shares being repurchased by the Company.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company did not repurchase any shares of Class A Common Stock. As of March 31, 2026, the total remaining amount authorized for repurchase was $216 million. Repurchased shares are reflected as Treasury Stock on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of equity.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
As of March 31, 2026, the Accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") balance included unrealized gains and losses for interest rate swaps and foreign currency translation adjustments related to our foreign subsidiaries that do not have the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. The tax effect on the Company's pre-tax AOCI items is recorded in the AOCI balance. This tax is comprised of two items: (1) the tax effects related to the unrealized pre-tax items recorded in AOCI and (2) the tax effect related to certain valuation allowances that have also been recorded in AOCI. When unrealized items in AOCI are recognized, the associated tax effects on these items will also be recognized in the tax provision.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]  
Share-Based Compensation
10. Share-Based Compensation
The Company has an active equity incentive plan, the Alight, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan"), under which the Company has been authorized to grant share-based awards to key employees and non-employee directors, which consist primarily of time-based restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance and market condition share units ("PRSUs"). Under this plan, for grants issued during the three months ended March 31, 2026, approximately 49% of the units are subject to time-based vesting requirements and approximately 51% are subject to additional performance-based vesting requirements. As of March 31, 2026, there were 144,516,151 remaining shares of common stock authorized for issuance pursuant to the Company’s stock-based compensation plans under its 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan. RSU and PSU nonvested share-based payment awards contain rights to receive forfeitable dividends and therefore are not participating securities.
Restricted Share Units and Performance Share Units
Time-based RSUs are valued at the market price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. In general, these awards vest ratably over a three-year period from the date of grant. All awards are expensed on a straight-line basis over a three-year period, which is considered to be the requisite service period.
The Company’s PRSUs contain various performance, market and service conditions that must be satisfied for an employee to earn the right to benefit from the award. The PRSUs vest upon achievement of various performance metrics or market conditions aligned to goals established by the Company. Expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, based on the probability of achieving the performance or market conditions, with changes in expectations recognized as an adjustment to earnings in the period of the change. Compensation cost is not recognized for performance share units that do not vest because service or performance conditions are not satisfied, and any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed. Compensation cost is recognized for awards with a market condition provided that the requisite service is rendered, regardless of when, if ever, the market condition is satisfied.
The weighted-average grant-date fair value per share of RSUs and PRSUs granted during each of the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were approximately $0.81 and $6.18, and $0.73 and $6.50, respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In December 2022, the Company began offering its employees an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). Under the ESPP, all full-time and certain part-time employees of the Company based in the U.S. and certain other countries are eligible to purchase Class A Common Stock of the Company twice per year at the end of a six-month payment period (a “Payment Period”). During each Payment Period, eligible employees who so elect may authorize payroll deductions in an amount no less than 1% nor greater than 10% of his or her base pay for each payroll period in the Payment Period. At the end of each Payment Period, the accumulated deductions are used to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock from the Company up to a maximum of 1,250 shares for any one employee during a Payment Period. Shares may be purchased at a discount of up to 15% of the fair market value of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the last business day of a Payment Period. As of March 31, 2026, there were 24,878,230 remaining shares available for grant and 4,503,334 shares issued under the ESPP. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025 the share-based compensation expense related to the ESPP was immaterial. Share-based compensation expense related to the ESPP is recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Earnings Per Share
11. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to Alight, Inc. by the weighted average number of shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding. The computation of diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities and other contracts to issue shares were exercised or converted into shares or resulted in the issuance of shares that would then share in the net income of Alight, Inc. The Company’s Class V Common Stock does not, and its Class Z Common Stock did not, participate in the earnings or losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities and have not been included in either the basic or diluted earnings per share calculations. RSU and PSU nonvested share-based payment awards contain rights to receive forfeitable dividends and therefore are not participating securities.
In conjunction with the Business Combination, the Company issued Seller Earnouts contingent consideration, which is payable in the Company’s Common Stock when the related market conditions are achieved. As the related conditions to pay the consideration had not been satisfied as of March 31, 2026, the Seller Earnouts were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculations.
Basic and diluted (net loss) earnings per share are as follows (in millions, except for share and per share amounts):

12. Segment Reporting
We currently operate under one reportable segment, Employer Solutions. Employer Solutions is driven by our Alight Worklife platform, and includes integrated benefits administration, healthcare navigation, financial wellbeing, leave of absence management and retiree healthcare.
The Company’s reportable segment has been determined using a management approach, which is consistent with the basis and manner in which the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) uses financial information for the purposes of allocating resources and evaluating performance. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is its CODM. The CODM evaluates the performance of the Company based on Revenue and Net Income (Loss) From Continuing Operations.
The CODM also uses Revenue and Net Income (Loss) From Continuing Operations to manage and evaluate our business, make planning decisions, and as performance measures for Company-wide incentive compensation plans. These key financial measures provide an additional view of our operational performance over the long-term and provide useful information that we use in order to maintain and grow our business. The Company does not report assets by reportable segments as this information is not reviewed by the CODM on a regular basis.
Information regarding the Company’s reportable segment is as follows (in millions):

Seller Earnouts
Upon completion of the Business Combination, the equity owners of Alight Holdings received an earnout in the form of non-voting shares of Class B-1 and Class B-2 Common Stock, which automatically convert into Class A Common Stock if, at any time during the seven years following the Closing Date, certain criteria are achieved. See Note 9, “Stockholders’ Equity” for additional information regarding the Seller Earnouts.
The portion of the Seller Earnouts related to employee compensation was accounted for as share-based compensation. As all employee compensation associated with the Seller Earnouts was vested on July 2, 2024, no portion of the Seller Earnout as of March 31, 2026 was accounted for as share-based compensation. See Note 10, “Share-Based Compensation” for additional information.
As of March 31, 2026, all of the remaining Seller Earnouts were accounted for as a contingent consideration liability at fair value within Financial instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets because the Seller Earnouts do not meet the criteria for classification within equity. This liability is subject to remeasurement at each balance sheet date. At each of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025 the fair value of the Seller Earnouts was immaterial. As of March 31, 2026 there was no gain or loss recognized as a result of the fair value remeasurement of the Seller Earnouts. As of March 31, 2025 the fair value remeasurement of the Seller Earnouts resulted in a gain of $22 million. Gains or losses related to the remeasurement of Seller Earnouts are recorded in (Gain) Loss from change in fair value of financial instruments within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
The fair value of the Class B-1 and B-2 Seller Earnouts is determined using Monte Carlo simulation and Option Pricing Methods (Level 3 inputs, see Note 16, "Fair Value Measurement"). Significant unobservable inputs are used in the assessment of fair value, including the following assumptions: volatility of 44.70%, risk-free interest rate of 3.48%,
expected holding period of 2.25 years, dividend participation, and probability assessments based on the likelihood of reaching the performance targets defined in the Business Combination. A decrease in the risk-free interest rate or expected volatility would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement of the Seller Earnouts and vice versa.
As discussed in Note 9, “Stockholders’ Equity”, in connection with the ultimate forfeiture of the shares of unvested Class A, unvested Class B-1, and unvested Class B-2 common stock issued to participating management holders on July 2, 2024, all Class Z instruments were ultimately settled resulting in the re-allocation of the forfeited compensatory Class A, Class B-1 and Class B-2 instruments. The Class Z instruments were also accounted for as a contingent consideration liability at fair value within Financial instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets because these instruments did not meet the criteria for classification within equity. The fair value of the Class Z-A contingent consideration was determined using the ending share price as of the last day of each quarter until settlement on July 2, 2024, resulting in the issuance of 1.5 million shares of Class A common stock and units at the $7.09 stock price on that date.
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Class Z-A contingent consideration was no longer outstanding. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, the Company did not record any losses or gains from change in fair value of financial instruments in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) as a result of the forfeiture of unvested management equity that was ultimately re-allocated to the holders of Class Z instruments on July 2, 2024. See Note 9, “Stockholders’ Equity” for additional information regarding these instruments.
Additional Seller Note
As disclosed above in Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Nature of Business”, on July 12, 2024, the Company closed on the Divestiture. As part of the sale, the Company received a note with an aggregate principal amount of up to $150 million (the “Additional Seller Note”) with an initial fair value of $43 million as of July 12, 2024 to be issued by the Note Issuer. See Note 4, “Discontinued Operations” for additional information. The Additional Seller Note is considered a level 3 recurring fair value measurement. In June 2025, the Company determined the fair value of the Additional Seller Note was zero. This value remained unchanged as of March 31, 2026 and is subject to final confirmation of financial performance in accordance with the terms and conditions of the agreement. As a result, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company did not record any gains or losses from the fair value remeasurement of the Additional Seller Note. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded a loss of $14 million from the fair value remeasurement of the Additional Seller Note. Gains or losses related to the recurring fair value remeasurement of the Additional Seller Note are recorded in (Gain) Loss from change in fair value of financial instruments within the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
The fair value of the Additional Seller Note was determined using a variation of the income approach (Level 3 inputs, see Note 16, "Fair Value Measurement"). Significant unobservable inputs are used in the assessment of fair value, including the following assumptions: expected Adjusted EBITDA, expected maturity of 4.28 years for the Additional Seller Note, the Divested Business's estimated cost of debt, and the likelihood of reaching the performance targets defined in the Purchase Agreement.

Tax Receivable Agreement
15. Tax Receivable Agreement
In connection with the Business Combination, Alight entered into a tax receivable agreement (the "Tax Receivable Agreement" or the "TRA") with certain owners of Alight Holdings prior to the Business Combination. Pursuant to the TRA, the Company will pay holders of TRA interests, as applicable, 85% of any savings that we realize, calculated using certain assumptions, as a result of (i) tax basis adjustments from sales and exchanges of Alight Holdings equity interests in connection with or following the Business Combination and certain distributions with respect to Alight Holdings equity interests, (ii) our utilization of certain tax attributes, and (iii) certain other tax benefits related to entering into the TRA.
Actual tax benefits realized by Alight may differ from tax benefits calculated under the TRA as a result of the use of certain assumptions in the TRA, including the use of an assumed weighted-average state and local income tax rate to calculate tax benefits. While the amount of existing tax basis, the anticipated tax basis adjustments and the actual amount and utilization of tax attributes, as well as the amount and timing of any payments under the TRA, will vary depending upon a number of factors, we expect that the payments that Alight may make under the TRA will be substantial.
The Company’s TRA liability established upon completion of the Business Combination is measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The TRA liability balance at March 31, 2026 assumes: (i) a blended U.S. federal, state and local income tax rate of 26.6%; (ii) the latest estimates in taxable income inclusive of the OBBBA, which was enacted into law in the U.S. in July 2025; (iii) the ability to utilize tax attributes based on current tax forecasts; and (iv) future payments under the TRA are made when due under the TRA. The amount of the expected future payments under the TRA has been discounted to its present value using a discount rate of 8.2%.
Subsequent to the Business Combination, we record additional liabilities under the TRA as and when Class A units of Alight Holdings are exchanged for Class A Common Stock. Liabilities resulting from these exchanges will be recorded on a gross undiscounted basis and are not remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, and 2025, there were no significant exchanges. As such, no material additional TRA liability was established as a result of the exchanges. As of March 31, 2026, $297 million of the TRA liability was measured at fair value on a recurring basis and $212 million was undiscounted and not remeasured at fair value. During the first quarter of 2026, the Company received an Objection Notice from the TRA Party Representative with respect to certain methodology used to prepare a portion of the Tax Benefit Schedule that calculates our 2026 Tax Benefit Payments to the TRA Parties (all capitalized terms as defined in the TRA). The Company disagrees with the TRA Party Representative’s assertions and is proceeding through the dispute mechanisms as set forth in the TRA agreement. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, consistent with the TRA agreement, the Company paid $136 million, representing what it considered the undisputed amount. The Company intends to vigorously contest the TRA Party Representative's assertions in the Objection Notice. If the TRA Party Representative nonetheless prevails in its position or the Company resolves the dispute consensually, the Company currently estimates that a resolution could increase the 2026 Tax Benefit Payments by up to $40 million above the undisputed amount paid during the three months ended March 31, 2026, plus interest as further detailed in the TRA. The Objection Notice does not address the Company's current 2027 Tax Benefit Payments estimate.

Fair Value Measurement
16. Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting standards related to fair value measurements include a hierarchy for information and valuations used in measuring fair value that is broken down into three levels based on reliability, as follows:
Level 1 – observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 – unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data which requires the use of valuation techniques and the development of assumptions.

Derivatives
The valuations of the derivatives intended to mitigate our interest rate risk are determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each instrument. This analysis utilizes observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, interest rate volatility, or spot and forward exchange rates, and reflects the contractual terms of these instruments, including the period to maturity. In addition, credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit enhancements to the contracts, are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential non-performance risk.

The fair value of the Company’s debt is classified as Level 2 and the Seller note is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy and corroborated by observable market data is as follows (in millions):

Transformation Program
On February 20, 2023, the Company approved a two-year strategic transformation restructuring program (the “Transformation Program”) intended to accelerate the Company’s back-office infrastructure into the cloud and transform its operating model leveraging technology in order to reduce its overall future costs. The Transformation Program included process and system optimization, third party costs associated with technology infrastructure transformation, and elimination of full-time positions. From the inception of the plan through March 31, 2025, the Company incurred total expenses of $140 million, and the plan was complete. These charges were recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Post-Separation Plan
On May 6, 2025, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved a program (the “Post-Separation Plan” or “PSP”) intended to further optimize our operations following the sale of the Divested Business in July 2024. The PSP includes simplifying our post-divestiture operating model, rationalizing our technology spend, expanding our use of artificial intelligence and automation and continued optimization of real estate. The Company currently expects to record in the aggregate approximately $69 million in pre-tax restructuring costs over the duration of the PSP, which includes primarily cash severance payments and other restructuring cash payments and charges related to technology spend, professional services and optimization of real estate. The Company estimates an annual savings of over $75 million after the PSP is completed. The PSP commenced in the second quarter of 2025 and is expected to be substantially completed over an estimated fifteen-month period from the commencement date. These charges are recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Guilmette, and its former Chief Financial Officer, Jeremy J. Heaton, on behalf of certain purchasers of securities of the Company (the “Securities Class Action”). Claims in the Securities Class Action include (i) alleged violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder against all Defendants, and (ii) alleged violations of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the Company and/or David D. Guilmette and Jeremy J. Heaton. Plaintiffs in the Securities Class Action allege purported misstatements and omissions concerning the Company’s growth potential, ability to execute on business plans, financial stability, and the sustainability of its recently initiated dividend program. The Company intends to defend against the lawsuit vigorously. The lawsuit is in the early stages, and at this time the Company cannot reasonably estimate the likelihood or amount of any potential loss.
On April 20, 2026, a derivative complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against nominal Defendant Alight Inc.; its former Chief Executive Officer, David D. Guilmette; its former Chief Financial Officer, Jeremy J. Heaton; and eleven current and former members of the Alight Board. Along with alleged violations of Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 premised on similar allegations to those in the Securities Class Action, Plaintiff seeks to recover for alleged breach of fiduciary duty, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment. The Company intends to defend against the lawsuit vigorously. The lawsuit is in the early stages, and at this time the Company cannot reasonably estimate the likelihood or amount of any potential loss.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
The Company provides a variety of service performance guarantees and indemnifications to its clients. The maximum potential amount of future payments represents the notional amounts that could become payable under the guarantees and indemnifications if there were a total default by the guaranteed parties, without consideration of possible recoveries under recourse provisions or other methods. These notional amounts may bear no relationship to the future payments that may be made, if any, for these guarantees and indemnifications. To date, the Company has not been required to make any payment under any client arrangement as described above. The Company has assessed the current status of performance risk related to the client arrangements with performance guarantees and believes that any potential payments would be immaterial to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Purchase Obligations
In March 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with a third-party provider in the ordinary course of business for the use of certain cloud services. Under this agreement, the Company is committed to purchase services totaling $250 million over a 5-year term. The Company’s total expected cash outflow for non-cancellable purchase obligations related to purchases of information technology assets and services is $77 million, $80 million, $62 million, and $17 million for the remainder of 2026 and the years ended 2027, 2028, and 2029, respectively and none thereafter, totaling $236 million.
Service Obligations
On September 1, 2018, the Company executed an agreement to form a strategic partnership with Wipro, a leading global information technology, consulting and business process services company. Effective April 1, 2025, the Company executed Amendment No. 2 which adjusted the mix of services provided by Wipro. Effective January 25, 2026, the Company executed Amendment No. 5 to extend the agreement through August 31, 2029. The Company may terminate certain elements of its arrangement with Wipro for cause or for the Company’s convenience with no penalty prior to August 31, 2029. If an unconsumed portion of the obligation remains after August 31, 2029, then the Company shall satisfy the obligation by paying Wipro the remaining unconsumed portion by September 30, 2029. Following the amendments, the Company’s expected remaining cash outflow for non-cancellable service obligations related to our strategic partnership with Wipro is $85 million, $70 million, $39 million, and $15 million for the remainder of 2026 and the years ended 2027, 2028, and 2029, respectively, and none thereafter, totaling $209 million.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 24, 2026. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Consolidation All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses
Allowance for Expected Credit Losses
The Company holds an allowance for expected credit losses with respect to trade receivables and contract assets that is based on a combination of factors, including evaluation of historical write-offs, current conditions and reasonable economic forecasts that affect collectability and other qualitative and quantitative analysis. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient that allows the Company to assume that conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of the asset when developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of reserves and expenses.
These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Management believes its estimates to be reasonable given the current facts available. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Illiquid credit markets, volatile equity markets, and foreign currency exchange rate movements increase the uncertainty inherent in such estimates and assumptions. As future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment would, if applicable, be reflected in the financial statements in future periods.
New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted and New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which provides all entities with a practical expedient in developing a reasonable and supportable forecast as part of estimating current expected credit losses assuming that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The Company adopted this standard prospectively during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and it did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Topic 220), which requires disclosure in the notes to financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses. This guidance will be effective for the annual periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance may be applied retrospectively or prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the standard to determine the impact of adoption to its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Accounting for and Disclosure of Software Costs, which improves the operability of the guidance by removing all references to software development project stages so that the guidance is neutral to different software development methods. Moving forward, the amendments will require an entity to capitalize software costs when a set of two criteria are met. This guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance may be applied prospectively, using a modified transition approach, or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the standard to determine the impact of adoption to its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements, which aims to improve the guidance in Topic 270, Interim Reporting, by improving the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarifying when that guidance is applicable. The amendments will be effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, entities can apply the amendments either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the standard to determine the impact of adoption to its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting standards related to fair value measurements include a hierarchy for information and valuations used in measuring fair value that is broken down into three levels based on reliability, as follows:
Level 1 – observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 – unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data which requires the use of valuation techniques and the development of assumptions.
