Tax Receivable Agreements [Abstract] |
Tax Receivable Agreements | Tax Receivable Agreements For a detailed discussion of the Company's tax receivable agreements, see Note 4 “Tax Receivable Agreements” in our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. For the purposes of the tax receivable agreements discussed above, the cash savings realized by the Company are computed by comparing the actual income tax liability of the Company to the amount of such taxes the Company would have been required to pay had there been (i) no increase to the tax basis of the assets of Virtu Financial as a result of the purchase or exchange of Virtu Financial Units, (ii) no tax benefit from the tax basis in the intangible assets of Virtu Financial on the date of the IPO and (iii) no tax benefit as a result of the Net Operating Losses (“NOLs”) and other tax attributes of Virtu Financial. Subsequent adjustments of the tax receivable agreements obligations due to certain events (e.g., changes to the expected realization of NOLs or changes in tax rates) will be recognized within income before taxes and noncontrolling interests in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The Company made its first payment of $7.0 million in February 2017, and subsequent payments of $12.4 million in September 2018, $13.3 million in March 2020, $16.5 million in April 2021, $21.3 million in March 2022, $23.3 million in April 2023, and $20.2 million in March 2024. Tax receivable payments are expected to range from approximately $0.1 million to $22.0 million per year over the next 15 years. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s remaining deferred tax assets that relate to the matters described above were approximately $130.2 million and $135.7 million, respectively, and the Company’s liabilities over the next 15 years pursuant to the tax receivable agreements were approximately $196.3 million and $216.5 million for March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The amounts recorded as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are based on best estimates available at the respective dates and may be subject to change after the filing of the Company’s U.S. federal and state income tax returns for the years in which tax savings were realized.
