Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“financial statement”) of PAR Technology Corporation through its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”, “PAR”, “we”, “us” or “our Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X pertaining to interim financial statements as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the Company's financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading and to provide a fair presentation of the Company's financial results for the interim period included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”). Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any future periods. The information included in this Quarterly Report should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on March 16, 2021 (“2020 Annual Report”).

The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, the recognition and measurement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations at fair value, the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment including right-to-use assets and liabilities, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, the measurement of liabilities and equity recognized for outstanding convertible notes, valuation allowances for receivables, inventories, and measurement of contingent consideration at fair value. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company's estimates are subject to uncertainties associated with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic; the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact these estimates is uncertain and cannot be predicted, and there can be no assurance that the COVID-19 pandemic will not have a material and adverse effect on these estimates.

The Company operates in two distinct reporting segments, Restaurant/Retail and Government. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Restaurant/Retail segment provides point-of-sale (“POS”) software and hardware, back-office software, and integrated technical solutions to the restaurant and retail industries. The Government segment provides intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance solutions and mission systems support to the United States Department of Defense and other Federal agencies. In addition, the financial statements include corporate operations, which are comprised of enterprise-wide functional departments.

Gain on Insurance Proceeds

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company received $4.4 million of insurance proceeds in connection with the settlement of a legacy claim.

Other Long-Term liabilities

Other long-term liabilities represent amounts owed to employees that participate in the Company’s deferred compensation

plan, and the long-term portion of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) deferred payroll taxes. The amount owed to employees participating in the deferred compensation plan was $2.8 million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Under the CARES Act employers can defer payment of the employer portion of social security taxes through the end of 2020, with 50% of the deferred amount due December 31, 2021 and the remaining 50% due December 31, 2022. As permitted under the CARES Act, the Company deferred payment of the employer portion of social security taxes through the end of 2020. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company deferred a total of $2.8 million of payroll taxes during 2020, to be paid equally in the fourth quarters of 2021 and 2022. The current portion of the deferred payroll taxes was $1.4 million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and was included within accrued salaries and benefits and $1.4 million in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is intended to simplify various requirements related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2021, and the application of the standard had no material impact on the Company's financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), which is intended to reduce the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock, and amend guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on its financial statements.

With the exception of the standards discussed above, there were no other recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the three months ended March 31, 2021 that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.
