Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | 26. Commitments and Contingencies In 2014, Kewill Inc. (Kewill) (a predecessor of BluJay) entered into a software licensing and service contract with a customer that resulted in a dispute over Kewill’s performance under the agreement. In June 2020, prior to our acquisition of BluJay, the customer filed suit. BluJay and its external counsel considered the claims meritless and intended to file a counter claim for delinquent uncollected receivables. At the time of the BluJay Acquisition in September 2021, an allowance for credit losses was recorded against the uncollected receivables from this customer. No further accrual was established for this litigation at the time of the acquisition or in subsequent periods through the first quarter of fiscal 2024, as in our judgement, which was based on the advice of external legal counsel, the claims were without merit. Any loss beyond the uncollected receivables was considered remote and the maximum exposure was believed to be immaterial. In February 2022, consistent with the related contractual terms, the case moved to binding arbitration. Upon conclusion of the arbitration proceedings in August 2023, the arbitrator ruled against BluJay. On September 14, 2023, the parties agreed to a settlement for $17.8 million which resolved the matter and released us from all alleged claims. The settlement was paid on September 20, 2023. The settlement is not an admission of liability or wrongdoing by us or our predecessors, nor does it validate the alleged claims. We accrued $17.8 million for the settlement in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 as part of general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. From time to time, we have exposure and are subject to contingencies that arise in the ordinary course of business for a variety of claims. We record an accrual for a contingency when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We do not currently believe the resolution of any other such contingencies will have a material adverse effect upon our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Operations or Statements of Cash Flows. |
