Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation The Company is involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business. At times, the Company, given the nature of its background screening business, could become subject to lawsuits, or potential class action lawsuits, in multiple jurisdictions, related to claims brought primarily by consumers or individuals who were the subject of its screening services. For all pending matters, the Company believes it has meritorious defenses and intends to defend vigorously or otherwise seek indemnification from other parties as appropriate. However, the Company has recorded a liability of $5.2 million and $4.4 million at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, for matters that it believes a loss is both probable and estimable. This is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In June 2014 and September 2015, two separate class action cases were filed against the Company in the State of California. The two cases were coordinated together under a single judge and a single settlement agreement for both cases as coordinated together was approved by the court in December 2021. As a result, the Company recorded a total liability of $5.5 million for this settlement agreement at December 31, 2021. This liability represented the settlement amount and related class action administrative fees, less certain payments made in December 2021. The remaining settlement amount was paid in February 2022. Additionally, the Company maintains liability insurance programs to manage its litigation risks and the Company’s insurers had agreed to a single deductible to be applied to the two cases. As a result, the Company recorded a total insurance receivable of $2.1 million for this settlement agreement at December 31, 2021, which represented the portion of the legal settlement and legal fees incurred by the Company which were recovered from the Company’s insurers in March 2022. The Company will continue to evaluate information as it becomes known and will record an estimate for losses at the time when it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable.
