SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)
12 Months Ended
Dec. 31, 2021
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation Basis of Presentation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bright Health Group, Inc. and all subsidiaries and controlled companies. The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates Use of Estimates: The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Our most significant estimates include medical costs payable, risk adjustment revenue and associated payables and receivables, premium deficiency reserve and valuation and impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Business Combinations Business Combinations: We account for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting. This method requires the recording of acquired assets and assumed liabilities at their acquisition date fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. Results of operations related to business combinations are included prospectively beginning with the date of acquisition and transaction costs related to business combinations are recorded within operating costs.
Revenue Recognition and Unearned Revenue Revenue Recognition: Premium revenue includes revenue derived from insurance contracts of Bright HealthCare, within the scope of FASB Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 944, Financial Services - Insurance, as well as revenue earned by
NeueHealth under capitated agreements recorded in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts With Customers. Premium revenue is recognized in the period for which services are covered. Individual policies can be terminated by a consumer without advance notice to the Company. Consumers that have unpaid premium balances for the coverage period are subject to certain termination requirements depending on whether the premium is subsidized or nonsubsidized by CMS. The Company estimates the portion of unpaid balances that will not be collected from consumers and records an allowance accordingly.

We record adjustments for changes to the risk adjustment balances for individual policies in premium revenue. The risk adjustment program adjusts premiums based on the demographic factors and health status of each consumer as derived from current-year medical diagnoses as reported throughout the year. Under the risk adjustment program, a risk score is assigned to each covered consumer to determine an average risk score at the individual and small-group level by legal entity in a particular market in a state. Additionally, an average risk score is determined for the entire subject population for each market in each state. Settlements are determined on a net basis by legal entity and state and are made in the middle of the year following the end of the contract year. Each health insurance issuer’s average risk score is compared to the state’s average risk score. Risk adjustment is subject to audit by HHS, which could result in future payments applicable to benefit years. Risk adjustment payable was $931.2 million and $187.8 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Premium revenue under the MA program includes CMS monthly premiums that are risk adjusted based on CMS defined formulas using consumer demographics and hierarchical condition category codes (“HCC risk scores”) calculated based on historical data submitted to CMS on a lagged basis. RAF-related premiums settle between CMS and the Company during both a midyear and final reconciliation process. Due to the lagged nature of the reconciliation and settlement, RAF-related premiums are estimated based on the lagged information that we submitted to CMS. The accuracy of the data submissions to CMS used in the RAF reconciliation are subject to CMS audit under the RADV audits and could result in future adjustments to premiums. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, our MA risk adjustment receivable was $75.3 million and $40.6 million, respectively, recorded in accounts receivable.

The Company, in conjunction with the MA program, covers prescription drug benefits under the Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit (Medicare Part D) program. Premium revenue includes CMS monthly premiums, consumer premium and CMS low-income premium subsidy for our insurance risk coverage. Premiums are recognized ratably over the period in which eligible individuals are entitled to receive covered benefits.

Our monthly payment from CMS includes prospective subsidies to cover catastrophic reinsurance and low-income cost subsidies, and the Medicare Part D coverage gap discount that the Company must cover at the point-of-sale for prescription drugs. We are not at risk for these portions of the Medicare Part D benefit design. We account for these CMS-provided subsidies and related costs on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and ultimately settle with CMS and pharmaceutical companies during the final Medicare Part D reconciliation subsequent to the plan year. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, we had receivables of $24.1 million and $6.6 million, respectively, recorded as prepaid and other current assets, and payables of $9.8 million and $0.5 million, respectively, recorded as other current liabilities related to these programs.

Our Medicare Part D premiums are subject to risk sharing with CMS under the risk corridor provisions. The risk corridor provisions compare costs targeted in our annual bid to actual prescription drug costs incurred. Our profit or loss is shared with or covered by CMS depending on the relative position within the risk corridor band. Changes in the risk corridor payable or receivable are recognized in premium revenue. As of December 31, 2021, we had a risk corridor payable of $4.1 million, which is included in other current liabilities. We had no material risk corridor receivable or payable as of December 31, 2020. Additionally, our individual policy premiums, MA and Medicare Part D prescription drug plans are subject to MLR requirements under the ACA. Plans with medical loss ratios that fall below certain targets are required to rebate ratable portions of premiums annually. As of December 31, 2021, we had MLR rebates payable of $1.1 million, which are included in other current liabilities. We had no rebates payable as of December 31, 2020.

As part of our NeueHealth business, we are party to capitation arrangements that generate capitated revenue in the form of a predetermined per member per month fee in exchange for providing all defined healthcare services needed by an eligible member of the health plan, that is the other party to the arrangement. Per ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts With Customers, the capitated revenue and corresponding medical costs are presented gross as we are acting as a principal in these arrangements,
bearing the primary responsibility for the delivery of the defined healthcare services and directing the performance of care activities in the fulfillment of our obligation.

We generate service revenue from providing primary care services to patients in our medical clinics. Our service revenues include net patient service revenues that we bill the consumer or their insurance plan on a fee-for-service basis. We recognize revenue as medical services are rendered.

Unearned Revenue: Payments received prior to the date of coverage are recorded as unearned revenue.
Medical Costs and Medical Cost Payable
Medical Costs and Medical Costs Payable: Medical costs payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets consists primarily of the liability for claims processed but not yet paid, estimates for claims received but not yet processed, estimates for the costs of health care services that enrollees have received but for which claims have not yet been submitted, capitation payable to providers and liabilities for physician, hospital and other medical cost disputes.

The estimates for IBNR claims, which includes estimates for claims which have not been received or fully processed, are developed using an actuarial process that is consistently applied and centrally controlled. The actuarial models consider factors such as historical submission and payment data, cost trends, customer and product mix, seasonality, utilization of health care services, contracted service rates and other relevant factors.

In developing our medical costs payable estimates, we apply different estimation methods depending on the month for which incurred claims are being estimated. For the most recent months, we estimate claim costs incurred by applying observed medical cost trend factors to the average per consumer per month medical costs incurred in prior months for which more complete claim data is available, supplemented by a review of near-term completion factors. For months prior to the most recent months, we apply the completion factors to actual claims adjudicated-to-date to estimate the expected amount of ultimate incurred claims for those months. These estimates may change as actuarial methods change or as underlying facts upon which the estimates are based change. Management believes the amount of medical costs payable is the best estimate of our liability as of December 31, 2021; however, actual payments may differ from those established estimates. Note 8, Medical Costs Payable, discusses the development of paid and incurred claims and provides a rollforward of medical costs payable.

We contract with hospitals, physicians and other providers of health care primarily within our exclusive provider networks under discounted fee-for-service arrangements, including case rates and hospital per diems, and capitated agreements to provide medical care to enrollees. Dental, vision, and other supplemental medical services are provided to consumers under capitated arrangements, and these providers are at risk for the cost of medical care services provided to our enrollees; however, we are ultimately responsible for the provision of services should the capitated provider be unable to provide the contracted services.
Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include cash and investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased.
Investments
Investments: We invest in equity securities and debt securities of the U.S. government and other government agencies, corporate investment grade, money market funds and various other securities.

We determine the appropriate classification of investments at the time they are acquired and evaluate the appropriateness of such classifications at each balance sheet date. We classify our investments in individual debt securities as available-for-sale securities or held-to-maturity securities. All available-for-sale investments maturing less than one year from the statement date that management intends to liquidate within the next year are reflected as short-term investments. Available-for-sale investments with a maturity date greater than one year are classified as long-term investments. All available-for-sale
investments are measured and carried at fair value. Changes in unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are reflected in other comprehensive income (loss).

Equity investments are classified as short-term investments and measured and carried at fair value. The changes in fair value of our equity securities are reflected in investment income within our Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

Realized gains and losses for all investments are included in investment income. The basis for determining realized gains and losses is the specific-identification method. Interest on debt securities is recognized in investment income when earned. Premiums and discounts are amortized/accreted using methods that result in a constant yield over the securities’ expected lives.

Prior to 2020, we applied the other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) model for securities in an unrealized loss position, which did not result in any material impairments for the year ended December 31, 2019. Beginning January 1, 2020, we adopted the new current expected credit losses (“CECL”) model. The CECL model retained many similarities from the previous OTTI model, except it eliminated the length of time over which the fair value had been less than cost from consideration in the impairment analysis. Also, under the CECL model, expected losses on available-for-sale debt securities are recognized through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost of the securities. For debt securities whose fair value is less than their amortized cost which we do not intend to sell or are not required to sell, we evaluate the expected cash flows to be received as compared to amortized cost and determine if an expected credit loss has occurred. In the event of an expected credit loss, only the amount of the impairment associated with the expected credit loss is recognized in income with the remainder, if any, of the loss recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). To the extent we have the intent to sell the debt security, or it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the debt security, before recovery of our amortized cost basis, we recognize an impairment loss in income in an amount equal to the full difference between the amortized cost basis and the fair value.

Potential expected credit loss impairment is considered using a variety of factors, including the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost; adverse conditions specifically related to the industry, geographic area or financial condition of the issuer or underlying collateral of a debt security; changes in the quality of the debt security's credit enhancement; payment structure of the debt security; changes in credit rating of the debt security by the rating agencies; failure of the issuer to make scheduled principal or interest payments on the debt security and changes in prepayment speeds. For debt securities, we take into account expectations of relevant market and economic data. We estimate the amount of the expected credit loss component of a debt security as the difference between the amortized cost and the present value of the expected cash flows of the security. The present value is determined using the best estimate of future cash flows discounted at the implicit interest rate at the date of purchase. The expected credit loss cannot exceed the full difference between the amortized cost basis and the fair value.

Accrued interest receivable relating to our debt securities is presented within prepaids and other current assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not measure an allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivable. We recognize interest receivable write offs as a reversal of interest income. No accrued interest was written off during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
Concentration Risk Concentration Credit Risk Concentration: We maintain cash in bank accounts that frequently exceed federally insured limits. To date, we have not experienced any losses on such accounts.Concentration Risk:
Restricted Investments And Statutory Deposits
Restricted Investments and Statutory Deposits: We hold pledged certificates of deposit for certain vendors and lease requirements. Restricted investments are carried at amortized cost. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, pledged certificates of deposit totaled $1.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, and are included in short-term investments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The regulated insurance entities of Bright Health are required to, among other things, hold certain statutory deposits and comply with certain minimum capital requirements, such as risk-based capital requirements, under applicable state regulations, as further described in Note 15, Commitments and Contingencies. Statutory deposits are classified as held-to-maturity investments and are carried at cost. The Company’s regulated legal entities held the required deposit amounts at December 31, 2021 and 2020, totaling $8.0 million and $7.0 million, respectively. The statutory deposits are principally held in U.S. Treasury securities within a custodial or controlled account with a custodial trustee and are included primarily in short-term investments and long-term investments, consistent with classification of other similar invested assets, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Accounts Receivable, Net of Allowance Accounts Receivable, Net of Allowance: Accounts receivable include unpaid health insurance premiums from consumers and government sponsors. Balances are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful accounts based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition and credit history, and current economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written off are recorded when received.
Reinsurance Recoveries
Reinsurance Recoveries: We seek to limit the risk of loss on insurance contracts through the use of reinsurance agreements. These agreements do not relieve us of our primary obligation to policyholders.

We have an agreement with Swiss Re Life & Health America, Inc. (“Swiss Re”) in which Swiss Re provides excess loss reinsurance coverage to the Company on individuals covered under our individual and small group policies. Effective January 1, 2021 we entered an agreement with RGA Reinsurance Company (“RGA”)(“Barbados”) in which RGA provides loss reinsurance coverage to the Company on individuals covered under our MA polices.

We have a quota share agreement with RGA, an alien unauthorized reinsurer, which cedes proportional percentages of premiums and medical costs of covered business of the Company, with the difference as an experience refund of ceded premiums, less a ceding fee paid to the reinsurer. Coverage includes comprehensive individual commercial policies in Colorado, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Florida. Effective January 1, 2021, we entered into a quota share agreement with the Canada Life Assurance Company (“CLAUS”), an alien unauthorized reinsurer, which cedes proportional percentages of premiums and medical costs of covered business of the Company, with the difference as an experience refund of ceded premiums, less a ceding fee paid to the reinsurer. Coverage includes comprehensive individual commercial policies in Florida. Deposit accounting is used for this arrangement and only ceding fees are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Effective January 1, 2020, the state of Colorado instituted its own reinsurance program in which insurers are reimbursed at varying coinsurance rates based on the rating area of its consumers for the consumers’ aggregate claims between the attachment point and program maximum.
Provider Risk Sharing Provider Risk Sharing: Our MA insurance business in California maintains a risk-sharing program with contracted primary care providers and hospitals. Additionally, agreements between our provider practices and insurers contain risk-sharing provisions based on the terms of the contracts. Additional revenues which we estimate to be earned or payments we expect to make under these arrangements are recorded in prepaids and other current assets or medical costs payable, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Premium Deficiency Reserve Premium Deficiency Reserve: Premium deficiency reserve liabilities are established when it is probable that expected future claims and maintenance expenses will exceed future premium and reinsurance recoveries on existing medical insurance contracts, including consideration of investment income. We assess if a PDR liability is needed through review of current results and forecasts. For purposes of determining premium deficiency losses, contracts are grouped consistent with our method of acquiring, servicing, and measuring the profitability of such contracts. As of December 31, 2021, we accrued a PDR liability of $102.8 million in other current liabilities. There was no PDR accrual as of December 31, 2020.
Prepaids and Other Current Assets Prepaids and Other Current Assets: Prepaids and other current assets primarily include prepaid operating expenses, pharmacy rebates receivable and, as of December 31, 2020, the escrow receivable related to business acquisitions as further described in Note 3, Business Combinations.
Property, Equipment and Capitalized Software Property, Equipment and Capitalized Software: Property, equipment and capitalized software are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are recognized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life, ranging from 3 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or their useful life. We capitalize costs incurred related to certain software projects for internal use incurred during the application development stage. Costs related to planning activities and post implementation activities are expensed as incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: Property, equipment, capitalized software and other long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. When evaluating long-lived assets with impairment indicators for potential impairment, we first compare the carrying value of the asset to its estimated undiscounted future cash flows. If the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset, we calculate an impairment loss. The impairment loss calculation compares the carrying value of the asset to its estimated fair value, which is typically based on estimated discounted future cash flows. We recognize an impairment loss if the amount of the asset’s carrying value exceeds the asset’s estimated fair value.
Operating Leases
Operating Leases: We lease facilities and equipment under long-term operating leases that are non-cancelable and expire on various dates. At the lease commencement date, lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term, which includes all fixed obligations arising from the lease contract. We include options to extend or terminate an operating lease in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability when it is reasonably certain that such options will be exercised. For operating leases, the liability is amortized using the effective interest method and the asset is reduced in a manner so that rent is expensed on a straight-line basis, with all cash flows included within operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Rent expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, net of any applicable lease incentives. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

When an interest rate is not implicit in a lease, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate for a period that closely matches the lease term. We determine our incremental borrowing rate as the interest rate needed to finance a similar asset over a similar period of time as the lease term. Our ROU assets are included in other non-current assets, and lease liabilities are included in other current liabilities and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We have elected the short-term lease exception for all classes of assets and do not apply recognition requirements for leases of 12 months or less. Expense related to short-term leases of 12 months or less is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. See Note 15, Commitments and Contingencies, for additional information on our operating leases.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in a business combination. We test goodwill for impairment annually at the beginning of the fourth quarter or whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. We test for goodwill impairment at the reporting unit level. Reporting units are determined by identifying components of operating segments which constitute businesses for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by segment management. We have three reporting units – Bright Healthcare Commercial, Bright Healthcare MA, and NeueHealth – with goodwill allocated to all of the reporting units.

Our goodwill impairment testing involves a multi-step process. We may first assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. We may also elect to skip the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the quantitative testing. When performing the quantitative testing, we calculate the fair value of the reporting unit and compare it with its carrying value, including goodwill. We estimate the fair values of our reporting units using a combination of discounted cash flows and comparable market multiples, which include assumptions
about a wide variety of internal and external factors. Significant assumptions used in the impairment analysis include financial projections of free cash flow (including assumptions about revenue growth rates, medical cost ratios, operating costs, capital requirements and income taxes), long-term growth rates for determining terminal value beyond the discretely forecasted periods and discount rates. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying value, no goodwill impairment is recognized. If the carrying value of the reporting unit is less than its calculated fair value, we recognize an impairment equal to the difference between the carrying value of the reporting unit and its calculated fair value. There was no goodwill impairment during the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019.

Our valuation of identifiable intangible assets acquired is based on information and assumptions available to us at the time of acquisition, using income and market approaches to determine fair value, as appropriate. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. We evaluate the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Operating Costs Operating Costs: Operating costs are recognized as incurred and relate to selling, general and administrative costs not related to medical costs. Additionally, the expense from the change in our PDR liability is included in operating costs. Policy acquisition costs, other than capitalized broker commissions, are expensed in the period incurred.
Share-Based Compensation Share-Based Compensation: We recognize compensation expense for share-based awards, including stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) on a straight-line basis over the related service period (generally the vesting period) of the award. Compensation expense related to stock options is based on the fair value on the date of grant, which is estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. The fair value of RSUs is determined based on the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant and the fair value of PSUs is determined using a Monte-Carlo simulation. Share-based compensation expense is recognized in operating costs in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).
Contingent Consideration Contingent Consideration: As part of the consideration in the acquisition of AMD, we are required to make a performance-based payment equal to 15% of AMD’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the calendar year ending December 31, 2023, adjusted per the terms of the contract, multiplied by eight. We remeasure the fair value of the earnout liability at each reporting period based on our current estimates of the expected future financial performance of the business. The fair value of the earnout liability was $1.5 million and $5.7 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, and is recorded in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the fair value of the earnout liability are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). We recognized a gain of $4.2 million in operating costs in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for the year ended December 31, 2021. We did not recognize any gain or loss based on changes in fair value for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Income Taxes
Income Taxes: The federal income tax returns of Bright Health are completed as a consolidated return. A tax-sharing agreement allocates the consolidated federal tax liability to each company in proportion to the tax liability that would have resulted for each company if computed on a separate return basis.

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary
differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes also addresses derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, and accounting in interim periods. Management evaluated the Company’s tax positions and concluded that for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the consolidated financial statements to comply with the provisions of this guidance. As of the consolidated financial statement date, open tax years subject to potential audit by the taxing authorities are 2018 through 2020 for the federal tax returns and 2017 through 2020 for the state tax returns. We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax (benefit) expense.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest: Redeemable noncontrolling interest in our subsidiaries whose redemption is outside of our control are classified as temporary equity.
Net Loss per Share Net Loss per Share: Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net losses attributable to common stockholders to reallocate undistributed earnings based on the potential impact of dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, including potential dilutive common shares.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted: In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models available for convertible debt instruments. This guidance eliminates the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments and requires the use of the if-converted method. This guidance will be effective for us in the first quarter of 2022 on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
