(16) LITIGATION AND CONTINGENCIES

 

From time to time, the Company is a party to legal or regulatory proceedings arising in the ordinary course of the Company's business. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company records a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Currently, there are no legal proceedings or regulatory findings which are both probable that a liability has been incurred and can be reasonably estimated that management believes, either individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations. These provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case.

During July 2024, the Company received an adverse judicial decision related to withholding taxes on certain agency relationships in Italy within the Money Transfer Segment, which the Company plans to appeal. The Company completed an assessment and concluded that it is reasonably possible that a liability has been incurred, but not probable. The principal amount of the agent-based withholding tax could be approximately $16.5 million for all open periods.
