Summary of Selected Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 - Summary of Selected Significant Accounting Policies
Included below are selected significant accounting policies including those that were added or modified during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as a result of new transactions entered into or the adoption of new accounting policies. Refer to Note 2, Summary of Selected Significant Accounting Policies, within the annual consolidated financial statements in our 2021 Form 10-K for the full list of our significant accounting policies.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Company’s significant estimates relate to income taxes, the fair value and useful lives of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, the recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, potential obligations associated with legal contingencies, the fair value of contingent consideration, and the fair value of derivatives and stock-based compensation.
These estimates are based on management’s best estimates and judgment. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates, judgments and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Uncertainty about these assumptions, judgments and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
Long-lived assets, which consist of property and equipment and right-of-use assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the carrying value is deemed not to be recoverable, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. The remaining estimated useful lives of property and equipment and right-of-use assets are routinely reviewed and, if the estimate is revised, the remaining unamortized balance is amortized or depreciated over the revised estimated useful life.
During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company determined that a right-of-use asset associated with its decision to discontinue its operations in Russia was fully impaired and recognized an impairment charge of $4.4 million in “General and administrative expense” within the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations. See Note 8, Restructuring, for additional information on impairment.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from services in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when or as the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of the promised services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps as prescribed by ASC 606:
The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that it will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract and determine those that are performance obligations and assess whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue is primarily derived in the form of recurring subscriptions and in-app purchases. Subscription revenue is presented net of taxes, refunds and credit card chargebacks. This revenue is initially deferred and is recognized using the straight-line method over the term of the applicable subscription period. Revenue from lifetime subscriptions is deferred over the average estimated expected period of the subscriber relationship, which is currently estimated to be twelve months. Revenue from the purchase of in-app features is recognized based on usage. Unused in-app purchase fees expire and are recognized as revenue after six months. The Company also earns revenue from online advertising and partnerships. Online advertising revenue is recognized when an advertisement is displayed. Revenue from partnerships is recognized according to the contractual terms of the partnership.
As permitted under the practical expedient available under ASC 606, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, and (ii) contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount which it has the right to invoice for services performed.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, there were no customers representing greater than 10% of total revenue.
For the periods presented, revenue across apps was as follows (in thousands):
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue consists of advance payments that are received or are contractually due in advance of the Company's performance. The Company’s deferred revenue is reported on a contract by contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The Company classifies deferred revenue as current when the term of the applicable subscription period or expected completion of the performance obligation is one year or less. The deferred revenue balance is $44.5 million and $39.9 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized revenue of $6.8 million and $6.0 million, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each respective period. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized revenue of $36.6 million and $27.9 million, that was included in the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each respective period.
Business Combination
The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. The purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including identifiable intangible assets, based on their fair values at the date of acquisition, with the exception of contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers. On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, under which the Company recognizes and measures revenue contract assets and contract liabilities (including deferred revenue) acquired in a business combination on the acquisition date as if the revenue contracts were originated by the Company in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The adoption of ASU 2021-08 did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Any excess of the amount paid over the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired is allocated to goodwill. These fair value determinations require judgment and involve the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including assumptions with respect to future cash inflows and outflows, discount rates, asset lives and market multiples, among other items.
Transaction costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company follows ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, for financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis. The Company uses the fair value hierarchy to categorize the financial instruments measured at fair value based on the available inputs to the valuation and the degree to which they are observable or not observable in the market.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Restructuring Charges
Restructuring charges, associated with office closure or exiting a market, consist primarily of severance, relocation, right-of-use asset impairment and other related costs. The Company evaluates the nature of these costs to determine if they relate to ongoing benefit arrangements which are accounted for under ASC 712, Compensation - Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits, or one-time benefit arrangements which are accounted for under ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations. The Company records a liability for ongoing employee termination benefits when it is probable that an employee is entitled to them and the amount of the benefits can be reasonably estimated. One-time employee termination costs are recognized when management has communicated the termination plan to employees, unless future service is required, in which case the costs are recognized ratably over the future service period. All other related costs are recognized when incurred. See Note 8, Restructuring, for additional information. Restructuring charges are recognized as an operating expense within the condensed consolidated statements of operations and are classified based on each employee’s respective function.
Earnings (Loss) per Share / Unit
Basic earnings (loss) per share / unit is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of common shares / units outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share / unit is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to the Company by the weighted-average share / units outstanding during the period after adjusting for the impact of securities that would have a dilutive effect on earnings (loss) per share / unit.
See Note 13, Earnings (Loss) per Share / Unit, for additional information on dilutive securities.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company issues stock-based awards to employees that are generally in the form of stock options, restricted shares, incentive units, or restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Compensation cost for equity awards is measured at their grant-date fair value, and in the case of restricted shares and RSUs is estimated based on the fair value of the Company’s underlying common stock. The grant date fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires management to make assumptions with respect to the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date, including the expected term of the award, the expected volatility of the Company’s stock calculated based on a period of time generally commensurate with the expected term of the award, risk-free interest rates and expected dividend yields of the Company’s stock. For time-vesting awards, compensation cost is recognized over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period, using the graded attribution method. For performance-based stock awards, compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis when achievement is probable. At the IPO date, the Company concluded that our public offering represented a qualifying liquidity event that would cause the performance conditions to be probable of occurring.
For periods prior to the Company’s IPO, the grant date fair value of stock-based compensation awards and the underlying equity were determined on each grant date using a Monte Carlo model. As the Company's equity was not publicly traded, there was no history of market prices for the Company's equity. Thus, estimating grant date fair value required the Company to make assumptions, including the value of the Company's equity, expected time to liquidity, and expected volatility.
See Note 14, Stock-based Compensation, for additional information on the Company’s stock-based compensation plans and awards.
Recently Issued Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU” 2020-04) Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and then subsequent amendments, which provide optional guidance and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The amendments are effective prospectively at any point through December 31, 2022. The Company continues to implement its transition plan toward cessation of LIBOR and the modification of its loans and other financial instruments with attributes that are either directly or indirectly influenced by LIBOR. The Company expects to utilize the LIBOR transition relief allowed under ASU 2020-04, as applicable, and does not expect such adoption to have a material impact on its accounting and disclosures. |
