Accounting Policies [Abstract]
BUSINESS AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES	BUSINESS AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES International Money Express, Inc. (the “Company” or “us” or “we”) operates as a money transmitter between the United States of America (“United States” or “U.S.”) and Canada to Mexico, Guatemala and other countries in Latin America, Africa and Asia through a network of authorized agents located in various unaffiliated retail establishments and 36 Company-operated stores throughout the United States and Canada. During March 2020, a global pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization related to the rapidly growing outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”). Although the worst effects of the pandemic appear to have subsided in the United States, the pandemic has had and continues to have a significant effect on economic conditions in the United States, and continues to cause significant uncertainties in the U.S. and global economies, particularly as a result of new variants of COVID-19, which appear to be causing an increase in COVID-19 cases in certain places around the world. Public health officials and medical professionals have warned that COVID-19 resurgences may continue to occur due to a variety of factors, including the extent of economic activity, social interaction, vaccination rates and the emergence of potent variants. It is unclear if and when resurgences will occur or how long any resurgence will last, how severe it will be, and what safety measures governments and businesses will impose in response. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic affects our business, operations and financial results depends, and will continue to depend, on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict. Although the Company’s operations continued effectively despite social distancing and other measures taken in response to the pandemic, the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows is dependent on future developments, including the duration or resurgence of the pandemic and the related extent of its severity, as well as its impact on the economic conditions, particularly the level of unemployment of our consumers, inflation (including changes in wages) and governmental efforts to restrain inflation, interest rate levels and foreign exchange volatility, all of which remain uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. If the global response to contain and remedy the COVID-19 pandemic escalates further or is unsuccessful, or if governmental decisions to ease pandemic related restrictions are ineffective, premature or counterproductive, or if an escalation in the global response to contain the COVID-19 pandemic is required or is unsuccessful, the Company could experience a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include Intermex Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”), its wholly-owned indirect subsidiary, Intermex Wire Transfer, LLC (“LLC”), Intermex Wire Transfers de Guatemala, S.A. (“Intermex Guatemala”) - 100% owned by LLC, Intermex Wire Transfer de Mexico, S.A. and Intermex Transfers de Mexico, S.A. (“Intermex Mexico”) - 98% owned by LLC and 2% directly owned by Holdings, Intermex Wire Transfer Corp. - 100% owned by LLC, Intermex Wire Transfer II, LLC - 100% owned by LLC and Canada International Transfers Corp. - 100% owned by LLC. The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated from the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. Certain information and footnote disclosures required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. On March 16, 2022, the Company entered into a definitive purchase agreement to acquire Envios de Valores La Nacional Corp. and LAN Holdings, Corp., which either directly or indirectly operate as money remittance companies in the United States, Canada and certain countries in Europe. The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2022. Accounting Pronouncements On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted the new accounting guidance, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”), which required the Company to record assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for lease-related rights and obligations and disclose key information about its leasing arrangements. The guidance requires that a lessee recognizes a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet. Leases will be classified as financing or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Refer to Note 6 for additional information on the adoption of this standard and related disclosures. The FASB issued guidance, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, regarding the measurement of credit losses for certain financial instruments. The new standard replaces the incurred loss model with a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. The CECL model is based on historical experience, adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company is required to adopt the new guidance on December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
