Tax Receivable Agreements [Abstract] | |
Tax Receivable Agreements | Note 18 - Tax Receivable Agreements In connection with the Reorganization Transactions and the IPO, the Company entered into (i) the Exchange Tax Receivable Agreement with certain Pre-IPO OpCo Unitholders and (ii) the Reorganization Tax Receivable Agreement with the Pre-IPO Blocker Holders (collectively, the “Tax Receivable Agreements”). These Tax Receivable Agreements provide for the payment by the ZoomInfo Tax Group to such Pre-IPO Owners and certain Pre-IPO HoldCo Unitholders of 85.0% of the benefits, if any, the ZoomInfo Tax Group actually realizes, or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances, as a result of certain tax attributes and benefits covered by the Tax Receivable Agreements. The Exchange Tax Receivable Agreement provides for the payment by members of the ZoomInfo Tax Group to certain Pre-IPO OpCo Unitholders and certain Pre-IPO HoldCo Unitholders of 85.0% of the benefits, if any, that the ZoomInfo Tax Group realizes as a result of (i) the ZoomInfo Tax Group’s allocable share of existing tax basis acquired in the IPO and (ii) increases in the ZoomInfo Tax Group’s allocable share of existing tax basis and tax basis adjustments that will increase the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of the ZoomInfo Tax Group as a result of sales or exchanges of OpCo Units for shares of common stock after the IPO, and certain other tax benefits, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the Exchange Tax Receivable Agreement. During the three months ended December 31, 2021, all remaining units subject to the Exchange Tax Receivable Agreement had been converted into Class A common stock. The Reorganization Tax Receivable Agreement provides for the payment by ZoomInfo Intermediate Inc. to the Pre-IPO Blocker Holders and certain Pre-IPO HoldCo Unitholders of 85.0% of the benefits, if any, that the ZoomInfo Tax Group realizes as a result of the ZoomInfo Tax Group’s utilization of certain tax attributes of the Blocker Companies (including the ZoomInfo Tax Group’s allocable share of existing tax basis acquired in the Reorganization Transactions), and certain other tax benefits, including tax benefits attributable to payments under the Reorganization Tax Receivable Agreement. The Company expects to benefit from the remaining 15.0% of any cash savings that it realizes. The Company reflected an increase in its share of the tax basis in the net assets of ZoomInfo HoldCo when OpCo Units were exchanged by Pre-IPO OpCo Unitholders. The Company treats any redemptions and exchanges of OpCo Units as direct purchases for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amounts that it would otherwise pay in the future to various tax authorities. They may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a liability of $2,978.7 million and $3,056.4 million respectively, related to its projected obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreements. This liability, or portion thereof, becomes payable once the tax attributes under the Tax Receivable Agreements reduces the Company’s current income tax liability which would have been otherwise due absent such tax attributes. The liability will be reduced to the extent the tax attributes are expected to expire or otherwise cannot be applied to reduce the Company’s tax liabilities. The liability is classified as current or noncurrent based on the expected date of payment and are included on our Consolidated Balance Sheets under the captions Current portion of tax receivable agreements liability and Tax receivable agreements liability, net of current portion, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we paid a total of $12.2 million pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreements. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recognized a TRA measurement gain of $65.6 million principally due to movements in our blended state tax rate resulting from legislation enacted in 2022 and changes in the apportionment of payroll, property and sales in the states in which we operate, as well as updates to tax attributes, within Other (income) expense, net on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, we recognized TRA remeasurement gains of $39.5 million and $15.7 million, respectively, within Other (income) expense, net on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
