Revenue Recognition

NOTE 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, when the Company satisfies its performance obligation to perform its defined contractual obligations to provide virtual behavioral healthcare services. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company will be entitled in exchange for the service rendered. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price in accordance using the expected value method, as this method best predicts the amount of consideration to which the Company will be entitled based on the terms of its contracts. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

 

Through its platform, Talkspace serves its business-to-business (“B2B”) channel, comprised of large health insurance plans and employee assistance programs (“Payors”), and large enterprise clients (“DTE”) who offer their insured members and employees access to the Company's platform at in-network reimbursement rates, or while their employer is under an active contract with Talkspace, where applicable, and its business-to-consumer (“Consumer”) channel, comprised of individual consumers who subscribe directly to the Company's platform.

 

The Company contracts with Payors to provide its therapy and psychiatry services to their eligible covered members. Revenue is recognized at a point in time, as virtual therapy or psychiatry session is rendered. The transaction price is determined based on contracted rates and includes variable consideration in the form of implicit price concessions. The Company determines the total transaction price, including an estimate of variable consideration, at contract inception and reassesses this estimate at each reporting date. The Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price using the expected value method primarily based on actual historical collection experience for each insurance payor over a twelve-month period. Revenue from Payors is presented net of implicit price concessions. Contracts with Payors include annual evergreen clauses and generally may be terminated by either party typically upon a minimum 60-day advance notice.

 

The Company contracts with enterprises to provide access to its therapist platform for their employees, primarily based on a per-member-per-month access fee model. Revenues from access fees are recognized ratably over the contractual term. The majority of contracts with enterprise clients typically range in length from one to three years and are generally non-cancelable during the initial contractual term.

 

The Company also generates revenues from the sale of monthly, quarterly, bi-annual and annual membership subscriptions to the Company's therapy platform as well as supplementary a la carte offerings directly to individual consumers through a subscription plan. The Company recognizes consumer revenues ratably over the subscription period, beginning when therapy services commence. The Company recognizes revenues from supplementary a la carte offerings at a point in time, as virtual therapy session is rendered. Members may cancel their subscription at any time and will receive a pro-rata refund for the subscription price. The transaction price from member subscription revenue and supplementary a la carte offerings includes variable consideration in the form of refunds. The Company estimates the refund liability for the variable consideration portion of the transaction price primarily based on historical experience. The refund liability is recorded within the “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” line item in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Revenue from individual consumers is presented net of refunds.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

Accounts receivables are stated net of credit losses allowance. The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through its contracts with health insurance plans, employee assistance programs and enterprise clients. The Company’s methodology for estimating credit loss is based on historical collection experience, customer creditworthiness, current and future economic

condition and market condition. Additionally, specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. Accounts receivables are written off after all reasonable means to collect the full amount have been exhausted. The allowance for credit losses was immaterial as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

Deferred Revenue

The Company records deferred revenues when cash payments from customers are received in advance of the Company's performance obligation to provide services. As of March 31, 2023, deferred revenue related mainly to the Company’s consumer channel. The Company expects to satisfy the majority of its performance obligations associated with deferred revenue within one year or less.
