Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Follow-on Offering Follow-on OfferingOn September 24, 2021, the Company closed a public offering in which the Company issued and sold a total of 5,073,529 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $272.00 per share. The Company received $1.3 billion in net proceeds from this public offering, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and other offering costs of $38.9 million.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Segment Reporting Segment Reporting The Company operates as one operating segment because its chief operating decision maker, who is the Chief Executive Officer, reviews its financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of making decisions regarding allocating resources and assessing performance. The Company's long-lived assets are mainly located in the United States (U.S.) and revenue is mainly generated in the U.S. Long-lived assets outside the U.S. are not material as of June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Business Combinations
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, allocation of the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the values of the identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill.
The determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed involves assessments of factors such as the expected future cash flows associated with individual assets and liabilities and appropriate discount rates at the date of the acquisition. Significant management inputs used in the estimation of fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed include, but are not limited to, expected future cash flows, future changes in technology, estimated replacement costs, discount rates, and assumptions about the period of time the brand will continue to be used in the Company’s product portfolio. Where appropriate, external advisers are consulted to assist in the determination of fair value. For non-observable market values, fair value has been determined using acceptable valuation methods (e.g., relief from royalty methods). The results of operations for businesses acquired are included in the financial statements from the acquisition date. Acquisition-related expenses and post-acquisition integration costs are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred. During the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition,
the Company may record adjustments to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the fair value of acquired intangible assets, an indemnification asset related to certain assumed liabilities, net lease liabilities, uncertain tax positions, tax-related valuation allowances, and pre-acquisition contingencies with a corresponding offset to goodwill. The Company continues to collect information and reevaluates these estimates and assumptions quarterly and records any adjustments to the Company’s preliminary estimates to goodwill provided that the Company is within the measurement period. After the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make various estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Management regularly assesses these estimates, including, but not limited to useful lives of long-lived assets; capitalization of internal-use software costs; incremental borrowing rates for right-of-use (ROU) operating lease assets, and operating lease liabilities; the estimate of losses on accounts receivable, acquired card receivables and other financial assets; accrual for rewards; variable consideration used in revenue recognition for certain contracts; benefit periods used to amortize deferred costs; reserve for losses on funds held for customers; inputs used to value certain stock-based compensation awards; and valuation of income taxes. The Company evaluates these estimates and assumptions and adjusts them accordingly. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.
Funds Held for Customers and Customer Fund Deposits Funds Held for Customers and Customer Fund DepositsFunds held for customers and the corresponding liability on customer fund deposits represent funds that are collected from customers for payments to their suppliers and funds that are collected on behalf of customers. Generally, these funds held for customers are initially deposited in separate bank accounts until remitted to the customers’ suppliers or to the customers. Funds held for customers also include amounts that are held by or deposited into the accounts of payment processing companies and receivables from customers. The funds held for customers are restricted for the purpose of satisfying the customers’ fund obligations and are not available for general business use by the Company. The Company partially invests funds held for customers in highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, consisting of money market funds and marketable debt securities, and in marketable debt securities with maturities of more than three months up to thirteen months at the time of purchase. Funds held for customers that are invested in marketable debt securities are classified as available-for-sale. These investments are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheets and as a component of the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The Company contractually earns interest on funds held for customers with associated counterparties.
Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Restricted Cash Equivalents
Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Restricted Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase, and securities purchased under overnight reverse repurchase agreements.
Restricted cash consists of (i) amounts restricted under deposit account control agreements, (ii) minimum cash balances that are required to be maintained by certain banks, (iii) cash collateral required by the Company’s lessors to satisfy letter of credit requirements under its lease agreements, (iv) cash collateral required by a bank in connection with the Company’s money transmission activities, and (v) cash in bank and cash deposits held by payment processing companies included in funds held for customers.
Restricted cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase that are included in funds held for customers.
Except for the restricted cash included in funds held for customers, the current and non-current portion of the restricted cash is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and in other assets, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Short–term investments
Short–term Investments
The Company invests excess cash in a diversified portfolio of highly rated marketable debt securities with maturities of more than three months. These securities are classified as available-for-sale and recorded at fair value. The Company determines the appropriate classification of investments in marketable debt securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation at each balance sheet date. After consideration of risk versus reward attributes and liquidity requirements, the Company may sell these debt securities prior to their stated maturities. As the Company views these securities as available to support current operations, the Company classifies highly liquid securities with maturities beyond 12 months as current assets. Unrealized gains or losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the consolidated balance sheets and as a component of the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.
An impairment loss is recognized when the decline in fair value of the marketable debt securities is determined to be other than temporary. The Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which will be at maturity. The Company periodically evaluates its investments to determine if impairment charges are required. The Company determined that there was no other-than-temporary impairment on short-term investments during each of the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, restricted cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, and acquired card receivables (collectively referred to as Financial Assets). The Company maintains its cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, restricted cash equivalents and short-term investments with large multinational financial institutions that may at times exceed federally insured limits. In connection with recent instability in the U.S. banking system, the Company's management has taken incremental precautions to safeguard its assets and evaluate the nature and extent of its financial partnerships. Management believes that the financial institutions with which the Company does business are financially sound with minimal credit risk. Management further believes the associated risk of concentration for the Company’s investments is mitigated by holding a diversified portfolio of highly rated investments consisting of money market funds and short-term debt securities.
The Company performs credit evaluations to verify the credit quality of its financial assets and determine any at-risk receivables. An allowance for potential credit losses on Financial Assets is recognized, if material. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the allowance for potential credit losses related to accounts receivable and acquired card receivables totaled approximately $15.9 million and $5.8 million, respectively. These amounts do not include the immaterial allowance for potential credit losses on the purchase of card receivables that have been authorized but not cleared at the end of the periods (see Note 15).
There were no customers that exceeded 10% of the Company’s total revenue during each of the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021.
Foreign Currency Foreign Currency The functional currency of the Company's foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar, which is the Company's reporting currency. Gains and losses from the remeasurement of transactions denominated in foreign currencies other than the functional currency of the foreign subsidiaries are included in other (expense) income, net in the accompanying statements of operations
Accounts Receivable and Unbilled Revenue
Accounts Receivable and Unbilled Revenue
Accounts receivable, which consist primarily of fees from customers, including accounting firm and financial institution customers, are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of an allowance for credit losses. Unbilled revenue is recorded based on amounts that the Company expects to invoice to customers in the subsequent period. The allowance for credit losses related to accounts receivable and unbilled revenue is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of the receivables. The Company regularly reviews the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses by considering the age of each outstanding invoice and the
collection history of each customer to determine whether a specific allowance is appropriate. Accounts receivable deemed uncollectable are charged against the allowance for credit losses when identified. For all periods presented, the allowance for credit losses related to accounts receivable and unbilled revenue was not material.
Acquired Card Receivables
Acquired Card Receivables
The portfolios of acquired card receivables are U.S. based commercial accounts diversified across various geographies and industries. The Company manages credit risk based on common risk characteristics including financial condition of the users of the spend and expense management application.
Acquired card receivables are reported at their principal amounts outstanding net of allowance for credit losses. Acquired card receivables are deemed to be held for investment when such receivables are not acquired specifically for resale.
As part of the onboarding process, users of the Company’s free spend and expense management application are provided with a credit limit subject to a credit policy and underwriting process which is periodically re-performed based on risk indicators and the size of the credit limit.
Spending businesses may over fund their accounts through payments in excess of the outstanding balance. Such over funded amounts are recorded as prepaid card deposits, which are included in other accruals and current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Acquired card receivables represent amounts due on card transactions integrated with the spend and expense management application. The Company is contractually obligated to purchase all card receivables from U.S.-based card issuing banks (Issuing Banks) including authorized transactions that have not cleared at the Issuing Banks. Acquired card receivables are recorded at the time a transaction clears the Issuing Banks and generally payment for the card receivables is made on the day the transaction clears the Issuing Banks.
The acquired card receivables portfolio consists of a large group of smaller balances from spending businesses across a wide range of industries. The allowance for credit losses reflects the Company’s estimate of uncollectible balances resulting from credit and fraud losses and is based on the determination of the amount of expected losses inherent in the acquired card receivable as of the reporting date. An estimate of lifetime expected credit losses is performed by incorporating historical loss experience, as well as current and future economic conditions over a reasonable and supportable period beyond the balance sheet date. In estimating expected credit losses, the Company uses models that entail a significant amount of judgment. The primary areas of judgment used in measuring the quantitative components of the Company’s reserves relate to the attributes used to segment the portfolio, the determination of the historical loss experience look-back period, and the weighting of historical loss experience by monthly cohort. The Company uses these models and assumptions to determine the reserve rates applicable to the outstanding acquired card receivable balances to estimate reserves for expected credit losses. Based on historical loss experience, the probability of default decreases over time, therefore the attribute used to segment the portfolio is the length of time since an account’s credit limit origination. The Company’s models use past loss experience to estimate the probability of default and exposure at default by aged balances. The Company also estimates the likelihood and magnitude of recovery of previously written off loans based on historical recovery experience. Additionally, management evaluates whether to include qualitative reserves to cover losses that are expected but may not be adequately represented in the quantitative methods or the economic assumptions. The qualitative reserves address possible limitations within the models or factors not included within the models, such as external conditions, changes in underwriting strategies, the nature and volume of the portfolio, and the volume and severity of past due accounts. In general, acquired card receivables are written off after substantially the entire balance becomes 120 days delinquent. Assumptions regarding expected losses are reviewed periodically and may be impacted by actual performance of the acquired card receivables and changes in any of the factors discussed above. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the allowance for potential credit losses on acquired card receivables shown on the consolidated balance sheets totaled $15.5 million and $5.4 million, respectively. These amounts do not include the immaterial allowance for potential credit losses on purchase of card receivables that have been authorized but not cleared at the end of the periods (see Note 15).
Derivatives Instruments
Derivative Instruments
The Company retains a beneficial interest derivative in the form of a deferred purchase price on card receivables sold. This derivative is not designated as a hedging instrument, and is initially recorded at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recorded through other gains and losses. The Company does not use derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The beneficial interest derivative is a residual interest in collections on card receivables sold, and serves to align the economic interests of the Company as servicer with those of the purchasing bank. Effective August 2022, the Company ceased selling acquired card receivables (see Note 7).
Property and Equipment
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally one to four years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposition, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company capitalizes internal and external direct costs incurred related to obtaining or developing internal-use software. Costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized and are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the software, generally three years commencing on the first day of the month following when the software is ready for its intended use. Costs related to planning and other preliminary project activities and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred.
Goodwill
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of the acquisition over the net fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill amounts are not amortized.
Intangible Assets
Intangible Assets
The Company generally recognizes assets for customer relationships, developed technology and finite-lived trade names from an acquisition. Finite-lived intangible assets are carried at acquisition cost less accumulated amortization. Such amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally from three to ten years. Amortization for developed technology is recognized in cost of revenue. Amortization for customer relationships and trade names is recognized in sales and marketing expenses.
Impairment
Impairment
Goodwill is tested annually at the reporting unit level for impairment during the fourth fiscal quarter or more frequently if facts or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. The Company has one reporting unit; therefore, all of its goodwill is associated with the entire company. Management has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the Company is less than the carrying amount, including goodwill. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the Company is less than the carrying amount, a quantitative assessment is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment and perform the quantitative assessment.
The Company reviews the valuation of long-lived assets, including property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of long-lived assets or asset groups is calculated based on the
estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Impairment testing is performed at the asset group level.
Based on management's assessment, the Company did not recognize any impairment losses on its goodwill, finite-lived intangible assets or other long-lived assets during the periods presented herein.
Leases
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, by evaluating whether there is an identified asset and whether the Company controls the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use. The Company determines the classification of the lease, whether operating or financing, at the lease commencement date, which is the date the leased assets are made available for use.
The Company uses the non-cancelable lease term when recognizing the ROU assets and lease liabilities, unless it is reasonably certain that a renewal or termination option will be exercised. The Company accounts for lease components and non-lease components as a single lease component. Modifications are assessed to determine whether incremental differences result in new contract terms and accounted for as a new lease or whether the additional right of use should be included in the original lease and continue to be accounted with the remaining ROU asset.
Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. Lease payments consist of the fixed payments under the arrangement, less any lease incentives. Variable costs, such as common area maintenance costs, are not included in the measurement of the ROU assets and lease liabilities, but are expensed as incurred. As the implicit rate of the leases is not determinable, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of the lease payments. Lease expenses are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company does not recognize ROU assets on lease arrangements with a term of 12 months or less. Lease expense for such arrangements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Accrued Rewards
Accrued Rewards
Spending businesses participate in rewards programs based on card transactions. The Company records a rewards liability that represents the estimated cost for rewards owed to spending businesses. Rewards liabilities are impacted over time by redemption costs and by spending businesses meeting eligibility requirements. Changes in the rewards liabilities during the period are recognized as an increase or decrease to sales and marketing expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The accrued rewards liability, which was $55.4 million and $36.2 million as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, is included in other accruals and current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The rewards expense, which was $173.9 million, $95.2 million, and $4.5 million, during the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively, is included in sales and marketing expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue Recognition
The Company enters into contracts with small and midsize businesses (SMB) and accounting firm customers to provide access to the functionality of the Company’s cloud-based payments platform to process transactions. These contracts are either monthly contracts paid in arrears or upfront, or annual arrangements paid up front. The Company charges its SMB and accounting firm customers subscription fees for access to its platform either based on the number of users or per customer account and the level of service. The Company generally also charges these customers transaction fees based on transaction volume and the category of transaction. The contractual price for subscription and transaction services is based on either negotiated fees or the rates published on the Company’s website.
The Company accounts for its annual and monthly contracts as a series of distinct services that are satisfied over time. The Company determines the transaction price for such contracts by estimating the total consideration to be received over the contract term from subscription and transaction fees. The Company
recognizes the transaction price as a single performance obligation based on the proportion of transactions processed to the total estimated transactions to be processed over the contract period. Revenues recognized exclude amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes collected and remitted to governmental authorities.
The Company enables SMB and accounting firm customers to make virtual card payments to their suppliers. The Company also facilitate the extension of credit to spending businesses through the Divvy product in the form of Divvy cards. The spending businesses utilize the credit on Divvy cards as a means of payment for goods and services provided by their suppliers. Virtual card payments and Divvy cards are originated through agreements with Issuing Banks. The agreements with the Issuing Banks allow for card transactions on the MasterCard and Visa networks. For each virtual card and Divvy card transaction, suppliers are required to pay interchange fees to the issuer of the card. Based on the Company's agreements with its Issuing Banks, the Company recognizes the interchange fees as revenue gross or net of rebates received from the Issuing Bank based on the Company's determination of whether it is the principal or agent under the agreements.
The Company enters into multi-year contracts with financial institution customers to provide access to the Company’s cloud-based payments platform to process transactions. These contracts typically include fees for initial implementation services that are paid during the period the implementation services are provided as well as fees for subscription and transaction processing services, which are subject to guaranteed monthly minimum fees that are paid monthly over the contract term. These contracts enable the financial institutions to provide their customers with access to online bill pay services through the financial institutions’ online platforms. Implementation services are required up-front to establish an infrastructure that allows the financial institutions’ online platforms to communicate with the Company’s online platform. A financial institution’s customers cannot access online bill pay services until implementation is complete.
Initial implementation services and transaction processing services are not capable of being distinct from the subscription for online bill pay services and are combined into a single performance obligation. The total consideration in these contracts varies based on the number of users and transactions to be processed. The Company has determined it meets the variable consideration allocation exception and therefore recognizes guaranteed monthly payments and any overages as revenue in the month they are earned. Implementation fees are recognized based on the proportion of transactions processed to the total estimated transactions to be processed over the contract period. The ability of the financial institution customers to renew their contracts without having to pay up-front implementation fees again could provide them a material right. For such arrangements, the Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price.
Interest on Funds Held for Customers
The Company also earns revenue from interest earned on funds held for customers that are initially deposited into the Company’s bank accounts that are separate from the Company’s operating cash accounts until remitted to the customers or their suppliers. The Company partially invests funds held for customers in highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less and in marketable debt securities with maturities of three months to one year at the time of purchase. Interest and fees earned are recognized based on the effective interest method and also include the accretion of discounts and the amortization of premiums on marketable debt securities.
Deferred Revenue Deferred Revenue Subscription and transaction fees from customers for which the Company has annual or multi-year contracts are generally billed in advance. These fees are initially recorded as deferred revenue and subsequently recognized as revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.
Deferred Costs
Deferred Costs
Deferred costs consist of (i) deferred sales commissions that are incremental costs of obtaining customer contracts and (ii) deferred service costs, primarily direct payroll costs, for implementation services provided to customers prior to the launching of the Company’s products for general availability (go-live) to customers. Sales commissions paid on renewals are not material and are not commensurate with sales commissions paid on the initial contract. Deferred sales commissions are amortized ratably over the estimated
life of the customer relationship aligned with the pattern of customer attrition, taking into consideration the initial contract term and expected renewal periods. Deferred service costs are amortized ratably over the estimated benefit period of the capitalized costs starting on the go-live date of the service.
Service Costs
Service Costs
Service costs consist primarily of personnel-related costs, including stock-based compensation expenses, for the Company’s customer success and payment operations teams, outsourced support services for the Company's customer success team, costs that are directly attributed to processing customers’, and spending businesses' transactions (such as the cost of printing checks, postage for mailing checks, fees associated with the issuance and processing of card transactions, fees for processing payments, such as ACH, check and cross-border wires), direct and amortized costs for implementing and integrating the Company’s platform into the customers’ systems, costs for maintaining, optimizing, and securing the Company’s cloud payments infrastructure, amortization of capitalized internal-use software (excluding capitalized stock-based compensation), fees on the investment of customer funds, and allocation of overhead costs.
Research and Development Research and DevelopmentCosts incurred in research and development, excluding development costs eligible for capitalization as internal-use software, are expensed as incurred.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based Compensation
The Company measures stock-based compensation for stock options and purchase rights issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) at fair value on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company measures stock-based compensation for restricted stock units (RSUs) and market-based RSUs based on the closing price of the Company’s stock and using the Monte Carlo simulation model, respectively, on the date of grant. The Company measures stock-based compensation for performance-based awards at fair value on the date of grant by using the Black-Scholes valuation option-pricing model or other valuation technique depending on the nature of the award. Awards that are classified as liabilities are remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period.
The Company recognizes compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting term of four years for stock options and RSUs, the offering period of one year for purchase rights under the ESPP, and the requisite period of one to three years for market-based RSUs. Stock compensation costs are reduced by the estimated forfeitures at the date of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on its historical experience for annual grant years where the majority of the vesting terms have been satisfied. The Company recognizes compensation costs for performance-based awards over the vesting period if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.
The Black-Scholes option-pricing model and Monte Carlo simulation model require the use of highly subjective assumptions which determine the fair value of stock-based awards.
The main assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model include:
Expected term The expected term represents the period that stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. The expected term for option grants is determined using the simplified method. The simplified method deems the term to be the average of the time-to-vesting and the contractual life of the stock-based awards.
Expected volatility The expected volatility was estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock.
Risk-free interest rate The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero coupon issues in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected term of option.
Expected dividend yield The Company has never paid dividends on its common stock and has no plans to pay dividends on its common stock. Therefore, the Company used an expected dividend yield of zero.
The main assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model include (i) expected volatility, (ii) risk-free interest rate, and (iii) performance period of the market-based RSU award, which represents the period that the Company's stock price condition has to be achieved in order for the award to vest.
Advertising AdvertisingThe Company expenses the costs of advertising, including promotional expenses, as incurred. Advertising expenses during the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022, and 2021 were $39.0 million, $29.4 million, and $8.5 million, respectively.
Income Taxes
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities, net operating loss (NOL), and tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. The Company classifies any liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits as current to the extent that the Company anticipates payment (or receipt) of cash within one year. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized in the provision for income taxes.
Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Common StockholdersBasic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, without consideration of potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for all periods presented since the effect of potentially dilutive securities is anti-dilutive given the net loss of the Company.
New Accounting Pronouncements
New Accounting Pronouncements:
Adopted
In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2022-02, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for Troubled Debt Restructurings (TDRs) by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors, while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Additionally, this ASU requires a company to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Measured at Amortized Cost. The Company early adopted this ASU on a prospective basis beginning July 1, 2022. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
Not Yet Adopted
The Company does not expect that any other recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a significant effect on its financial statements.
Fair Value Measurement
The Company measures and reports its cash equivalents, short-term investments, funds held for customers that are invested in money market funds and marketable debt securities, and contingent consideration at fair value. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or an exit price paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The fair value hierarchy defines a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements as follows:
Level 1 –     Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 –     Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can
be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.
Level 3 –     Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity for the related assets or liabilities and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
In determining fair value, the Company utilizes quoted market prices, or valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, and also considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.
