Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies	Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Leafly for the year ended December 31, 2021, each of which was filed on the company’s Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022 (the “2021 Financial Information”). These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in management's opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring estimates and accruals necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated cash flows, operating results, and balance sheets for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. The results of operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other interim period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim reporting. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported net loss. Seasonality We may experience seasonality in our business, which we believe has moderate impacts on our overall revenue. In certain years, we've seen seasonal fluctuations that coincide with either federal holidays, generally in the fourth quarter, or industry holidays and events, generally in the spring. Our industry and business history is limited and therefore we can't be certain that these are known trends or that other trends may develop. Emerging Growth Company Status Leafly is an emerging growth company (“EGC”), as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, EGCs can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period. In providing this relief, the JOBS Act does not preclude the Company from adopting a new or revised accounting standard earlier than the time that such standard applies to private companies. Leafly will continue to use this relief until the earlier of the date that it (a) is no longer an emerging growth company or (b) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. Significant Accounting Policies The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2021 Financial Information, which describes the Company's significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes to the Company's significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. However, certain items became material during the periods presented and therefore, we have disclosed the related accounting policies below. In addition, as a result of the Business Combination, the Company entered into certain derivative instruments that are accounted for as liabilities. These instruments and the related accounting are discussed in Notes 12, 13, and 20. Capitalized Software The Company capitalizes certain costs related to acquisition and development of software for internal use, including internal labor costs incurred during development. The Company begins to capitalize these costs when planning and design efforts are successfully completed and development is ready to commence. Costs incurred during planning and design, together with costs incurred for training and maintenance, are expensed as incurred and recorded in product development expense. The Company places capitalized software assets into service and commences amortization when the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Once placed into service, the Company capitalizes qualifying costs of specified upgrades or enhancements to the assets when the upgrade or enhancement will result in new or additional functionality. The Company’s estimated useful life for capitalized software is 3 years, and amortization is calculated using the straight-line method. Transaction Costs The Company incurred significant costs direct and incremental to the Business Combination and therefore to the recapitalization of the Company. We deferred such costs incurred in 2021. In 2022, upon closing of the Business Combination, total direct transaction costs were allocated between equity and liability instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis that were newly issued in the recapitalization. Amounts allocated to equity were recorded to additional paid-in capital, while amounts allocated to the specified liabilities were recorded as other expense. Recent Accounting Pronouncements As a result of the elected JOBS Act relief discussed above, these condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to other companies that do not elect JOBS Act relief or choose to adopt certain accounting pronouncements during a different period than the Company. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards None. Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted Management does not believe that there are any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or related disclosures.
