Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation of Interim Financial Information | Basis of Presentation of Interim Financial Information The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Morningstar, Inc. and subsidiaries (Morningstar, we, our, the company) have been prepared to conform to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of management, the statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations, equity, and cash flows. These financial statements and notes are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2025 (our Annual Report). The acronyms that appear in the Notes to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements refer to the following: ASC: Accounting Standards Codification ASU: Accounting Standards Update FASB: Financial Accounting Standards Board
