Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation | Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation Akamai Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) provides solutions to power and protect business online. Its massively distributed edge and cloud platform, or Akamai Connected Cloud, comprises more than 4,200 edge points-of-presence in over 700 cities and approximately 130 countries. The Company was incorporated in Delaware in 1998 and is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Company is currently organized and operates as one operating and reportable segment. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been condensed in, or omitted from, these interim financial statements. Accordingly, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2024. The December 31, 2023 condensed consolidated balance sheet included herein is derived from the Company's audited consolidated financial statements. The results of operations presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any future periods. In the opinion of management, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that are necessary for a fair statement of the results of all interim periods reported herein. Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements The interim condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, has been revised to correct an overstatement of $384.9 million included in purchases of short- and long-term marketable securities and proceeds from maturities and redemptions of short- and long-term marketable securities which should have been excluded from these amounts because they are cash equivalents. Management determined that the overstatement was not material to the Company's prior financial statements. The revision had no net impact on the Company's cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The change also had no impact on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 and the condensed consolidated statements of income, condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income or condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance to enhance income statement disclosures through additional disclosures of specified information about certain costs and expenses. This guidance will be effective for the Company's annual period ending December 31, 2027 and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2028, and is to be applied prospectively with the option to adopt retrospectively. The Company is evaluating the impact the update will have on its disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance to improve income tax disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures for the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid, in addition to the modification or elimination of other disclosures. This guidance will be effective for the Company's annual period ending December 31, 2025 and is to be applied prospectively with the option to adopt retrospectively. The Company is evaluating the impact the update will have on its disclosures. In November 2023, the FASB issued guidance to improve reportable segment disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expense and application of all segment disclosure requirements to entities with a single reportable segment. This guidance will be effective for the Company's annual period ending December 31, 2024 and interim periods beginning on January 1, 2025 and is to be applied retrospectively. The Company has completed a preliminary assessment of significant expenses of its single segment and does not anticipate an impact on its consolidated financial statements other than for the additional required disclosures.
