Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

  A.

Description of the Business

Greenspring Associates, Inc. is the parent company of Greenspring Associates, L.P. Greenspring Associates, L.P. is the sole member of Greenspring Associates, LLC. Greenspring Associates, LLC (“Greenspring”) provides financial and investment advisory services as required for the benefit of various private investment funds as well as certain investment accounts (collectively, the “Greenspring Funds”). A related person of Greenspring generally acts as general partner of each Greenspring Fund. Greenspring controls investments made on behalf of many of the Greenspring Funds (such Greenspring Funds, the “Greenspring Discretionary Funds”) and makes investment recommendations on behalf of other Greenspring Funds (such Greenspring Funds, the “Greenspring Advisory Funds”).

Greenspring Associates, L.P. is also the sole member of Brightside Mechanical, LLC (“Brightside”). Greenspring had an agreement to lease an aircraft from Brightside during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. On April 23, 2021, Greenspring Associates, Inc. distributed all the assets and liabilities of Brightside to a shareholder. Greenspring no longer has an agreement to lease an aircraft from Brightside or any other party.

Other than its interest in Greenspring and Brightside, Greenspring Associates, Inc. and Greenspring Associates, L.P. do not have further business activities.

Greenspring Associates (UK) Limited (“Greenspring UK”), Greenspring Associates (China), LLC and Greenspring Beijing Consulting Co, Ltd. (collectively, “Greenspring China”) are subsidiaries of Greenspring.

Greenspring Back Office Solutions, Inc. has a controlling interest in Greenspring Back Office Solutions, LLC (“GBOS”). GBOS primarily provides administrative services to unaffiliated investment advisors and their private funds (the “Unaffiliated Funds”).

Greenspring Associates, Inc and Greenspring Back Office Solutions, Inc. are under common control. Therefore, the financial statements of Greenspring Associates, Inc, Greenspring Associates, L.P., Greenspring, Greenspring UK, Greenspring China, Greenspring Back Office Solutions, Inc and GBOS (collectively, the “Company”) are presented herein on a combined consolidated basis.

 

  B.

Principles of Combination and Consolidation

The combined consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Greenspring Associates, Inc, Greenspring Associates, L.P., Greenspring, Greenspring UK, Greenspring China, Greenspring Back Office Solutions, Inc and GBOS. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in combination and consolidation.

 

  C.

Basis of Accounting

The unaudited condensed combined consolidated financial statements have been presented on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”).

Greenspring Associates, Inc. and Affiliates

Notes to Condensed Combined Consolidated Financial Statements

 

 

 

  D.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

  E.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash accounts with insured financial institutions. At times, balances may exceed insured limits. The Company relies on the soundness of financial institutions holding the Company’s deposits and believes that the Company’s risk related to cash is negligible.

 

  F.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable primarily represent expenses incurred on behalf of various entities and individuals which will ultimately be reimbursed to Greenspring, and management fees earned but not yet received. The Company believes that the accounts receivable balances are fully collectible; therefore no allowance for doubtful accounts has been recorded as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

 

  G.

Investments in Greenspring Funds and Unaffiliated Funds and Fair Value Measurement

The primary purpose of the Greenspring Funds and Unaffiliated Funds is to generate significant returns for their respective partners, principally through long-term capital appreciation, by making, holding, and disposing of privately negotiated equity and equity-related investments (“Portfolio Investments”), principally in (i) venture capital and private equity partnerships (“Portfolio Funds”) and (ii) operating companies (“Portfolio Companies”).

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the Company discloses and recognizes the fair value of its assets and liabilities using a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1: Inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date;

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including inputs in the markets that are not considered to be active;

Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable.

Greenspring Associates, Inc. and Affiliates

Notes to Condensed Combined Consolidated Financial Statements

 

 

 

Inputs are used in applying various valuation techniques and broadly refer to the assumptions that market participants would use to make valuation decisions, including assumptions about risk. An investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. However, the determination of what constitutes “unobservable” requires significant judgment by the Company. The Company considers observable data to be market data which is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, provided by multiple, independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update 2015-07, Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (“ASU 2015-07”), the Company does not categorize, within the fair value hierarchy, investments for which fair values are estimated using the net asset value practical expedient provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (“ASC 820”).

The fair market value of the Greenspring Funds and Unaffiliated Funds is recorded as the net asset value of the investment as reported to the Company by the Greenspring Fund and Unaffiliated Funds and as such, investments in the Greenspring Funds and Unaffiliated Funds are deemed to be valued using the net asset value practical expedient.

Effective March 31, 2021 Greenspring transferred all of its Investments in Greenspring Funds to related parties. Greenspring received no consideration in return for these interests. The following tables summarize the Greenspring’s interests in the Greenspring Funds as of December 31, 2020:

Fixed Assets

All capitalized fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense is determined by the use of the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets ranging from 5 to 39 years or the lease terms. Additions and betterments are capitalized, and costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The related costs and accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from the accounts when an asset is sold or retired and the related gain or loss is credited or charged to earnings.

Fixed assets consist of the following as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

 

     June 30, 2021      December 31, 2020

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

The Company accounts for the valuation of long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment (“ASC 360”). ASC 360 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the long-lived asset is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed are reportable at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, management does not believe any long-lived assets are impaired and has not identified any assets as being held for disposal.

Due from Greenspring Funds

  L.

Due from Shareholders and Due from Employees

Amounts due to the Company from shareholders and employees are recorded on the Condensed Combined Consolidated Balance Sheet accordingly. Such amounts, if outstanding for a period greater than 30 days, bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Applicable Federal Rate as determined by the IRS under Section 1274(d) of the Internal Revenue Code. Principal and interest are due and payable upon the earliest to occur of (a) the dissolution of the Company, or (b) the date the undersigned ceases to be a partner of the Company. Any payment or prepayments are first applied against any accrued and unpaid interest and second against the advances of the principal sum outstanding.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue is primarily derived from contracts with customers in the form of management fees and administrative fees, as well as performance fees in the form of a profits interest.

Management fees – For its advisory, administrative and management functions, Greenspring generally receives a management advisory fee, billed on a quarterly basis, from each of the Greenspring Funds equal to a percentage of the commitments to a Greenspring Fund, capital drawn by a Greenspring Fund, the total amount of capital committed to underlying portfolio funds and/or portfolio companies of a Greenspring Fund and/or the cost basis or the fair market

value of a Greenspring Fund’s investments. The percentage amount varies with the type of Greenspring Fund and over the life of the Greenspring Fund, and where paid, generally ranges from 0.0% to 2.5% annually, as negotiated and determined at the time a Greenspring Fund or advisory arrangement is established. Consideration from the Greenspring Funds may be fixed or variable. Consideration that is variable is due to the uncertainty of the basis used to calculate the fee during each distinct service period. At the time of payment, there is no uncertainty around management fees earned. At the end of each period, the Company records revenue for the actual amount of management fees earned for that period because the uncertainty has been resolved.

Administrative fees – For its administrative services, GBOS generally receives an administrative fee, billed on a quarterly or semi-annual basis, from the private funds to which it provides services. The amount of the administrative fees are fixed as outlined in the administrative services agreements with each unaffiliated investment manager. At the end of each period, the Company records revenue for the actual amount of administrative fees earned for that period.

Performance fees – The Company is eligible to earn an incentive allocation in the form of a profits interest in some of the Greenspring Funds and Unaffiliated Funds. The profits interest, if earned, is recognized upon receipt of the cash proceeds in excess of its basis in the relevant Greenspring Funds and Unaffiliated Funds. The profits interest is subject to uncertainty of market volatility, and as a result, the entire amount of the variable consideration related to the profits interest is constrained until the end of each measurement period. At the end of the measurement period, revenue is recorded for the actual amount of profits interest earned and received during that period. As the profits interest received in any period is non-refundable, the uncertainty has been resolved upon receipt. The profits interests earned may be refundable to the Greenspring Funds and Unaffiliated Funds. The revenue recorded for the reporting periods are non-refundable and therefore there is no uncertainty.

 

  N.

Income Taxes

Greenspring Associates, Inc. and Greenspring Back Office Solutions, Inc. are both corporations that have elected to be treated as an S Corporation for income tax purposes. Consequently, all tax effects of the Company’s income or loss are passed through to, and reported by, the shareholders individually. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been included in the accompanying condensed combined consolidated financial statements.

ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return as well as guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties and financial statement reporting disclosures. For these benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company did not require any reserves for tax positions described in this paragraph.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax exposures as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not have any amounts accrued relating to interest and penalties as of the reporting periods. The Company is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however there are currently no audits in progress.

Other Comprehensive Income

The Company has adopted ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, which requires the reporting of comprehensive income in addition to net income from operations. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. Other comprehensive income as consists of changes in the minimum pension liability recognized under ASC 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Note 6), and net unrealized gains from Greenspring Funds and Unaffiliated Funds (Note 1 Item G).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The distinction between finance leases (previously capital leases) and operating leases is substantially similar to the distinction between capital leases and operating leases in the previous lease guidance. Lessor accounting is also largely unchanged. For lessees, leases under both categories will be reported on the balance sheet as a depreciable right-of-use asset and a liability to make lease payments. The asset and liability should be initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, including payments to be made in optional periods only if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise an option to extend the lease or not to exercise an option to terminate the lease. The asset will be depreciated and the liability will be reduced by lease payments. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election not to recognize lease assets and liabilities. Management is currently evaluating the timing of its adoption and the impact of adopting the new leases standard on its condensed combined consolidated financial statements.
