Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to the significant accounting policies described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 15, 2024 that have had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable, net, are trade receivables net of reserves for allowances for doubtful accounts totaling $6.4 million as of March 31, 2024, and $6.5 million as of December 31, 2023. The Company recorded net bad debt expenses of $0.3 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The allowance for doubtful accounts is calculated based on current expected credit losses, which includes consideration of historical losses, existing economic conditions, and analysis of specific older account balances of customer and delegate accounts. Trade receivables are written off when collection efforts have been exhausted.
Unrealized Foreign Exchange Gains (Loss) - net
We recognized foreign exchange gains - net of $16.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared with net losses of $10.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. These changes are primarily driven by fluctuations in the EUR related to our EUR term loans.
Minority Investments without Readily Determinable Fair Value
The carrying amount of the minority investments, which is included within “Other long-term assets” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, was $9.7 million and $10.0 million as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company uses the measurement alternative for these equity investments, and their carrying value is reported at cost, adjusted for impairments, or any observable price changes in ordinary transactions with identical or similar investments. Revenue related to content consumed by the minority investees was not material during the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023.
On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the carrying value of its long-term investments for impairment, which includes an assessment of revenue growth, earnings performance, working capital, and general market conditions. As of March 31, 2024, no adjustments to the carrying values of the Company’s long-term investments were identified as a result of this assessment.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other standard-setting bodies that are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures upon adoption.
