2.     Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting periods. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules that would ordinarily be required under GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

​

Use of Estimates and Judgments in the Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and judgments are inherent in the analysis and measurement of items including, but not limited to: revenue recognition criteria including the determination of principal versus agent revenue considerations, income taxes, the valuation and recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, the assessment of potential loss from contingencies, assumptions in valuing acquired assets and liabilities assumed in business combinations, the allowance for doubtful accounts, and assumptions used in determining the fair value of stock-based compensation. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in those estimates. These estimates are based on the information available as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents amounts pledged as collateral for certain agreements with third parties. Upon satisfying the terms of the relevant agreements, the funds are expected to be released and available for use by the Company. Restricted cash is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in Prepaid expenses and other current assets or Other non-current assets, depending on if such funds will be released and available for use by the Company within the next twelve months.

Short-term Investments

Debt Securities

The Company’s accounting for debt securities varies depending on the legal form of the security, our intended holding period for the security, and the nature of the transaction. Investments in marketable debt securities include U.S. treasury bills. The Company considers all of its marketable debt securities as available for use in current operations and, therefore, classifies these securities as Short-term investments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Marketable debt securities are classified as available-for-sale and are initially recorded at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses related to available-for-sale debt securities are recorded as a separate component of Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income until realized. Interest on marketable debt securities classified as available-for-sale is included as a component of Other income, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Refer to Note 8 for further information.

The Company accounts for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities in accordance with ASC 326, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses” (“ASC 326”). The Company uses ASC 326 to assess the investment portfolio for impairment at the individual security level and evaluates all securities in an unrealized loss position to determine if the impairment is credit related (realized loss recorded in earnings) or non-credit related (unrealized loss).

Debt Issuance Costs

The New Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 9) includes debt issuance costs that meet the definition of an asset and are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balances Sheets in Other non-current assets. Debt issuance costs for the New Revolving Credit Facility are amortized to interest expense over the contractual term of the underlying debt instrument on a straight-line basis through the maturity date of the New Revolving Credit Facility on August 12, 2029.
