Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are as follows:
Basis of presentation
These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the historical balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and statements of cash flows of the Company. Within these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Paulson and its related entities, as defined above, are referred to as “related parties.”
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been included. All dollar amounts, except per-share data in the text and tables herein, are stated in millions unless otherwise indicated. Transactions between the Company and its related parties are included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements; however, material intercompany balances and transactions among the Company, its consolidated Affiliate and consolidated Funds are eliminated in consolidation.
Certain disclosures included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (annual report on Form 10-K) are not required to be included on an interim basis in the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. The Company has condensed or omitted these disclosures. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 28, 2024. The Company’s significant accounting policies, which have been consistently applied, are summarized in those financial statements.
Use of estimates
The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from such estimates, and the differences may be material to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
New accounting standards not yet adopted

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB” issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU” 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This amendment requires annual and interim disclosures of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker by reportable segment and clarifies that single reportable segment entities are required to apply all existing segment disclosures in the guidance. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023 and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect the additional disclosure requirements under ASU 2023-07 to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires public entities, on an annual basis, to provide disclosure of specific categories in the rate reconciliation, as well as disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect the additional disclosure requirements under ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards. This standard provides clarity regarding whether profits interest and similar awards are within the scope of Topic 718 of the Accounting Standards Codification. This amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2024-01 to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company has considered all other newly issued accounting guidance that is applicable to the Company’s operations and the preparation of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including those that have not yet been adopted. The Company does not believe that any such guidance has or will have a material effect on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.
