Tabular List [Table Text Block] | Tabular List of Financial Performance Measures The following is a list of financial performance measures, which in our assessment represent the most important financial performance measures used by the Company to link compensation actually paid to the NEOs for 2023. Please see the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for a further description of the metrics used in the Company’s executive compensation program.
1. | Non-GAAP Operating Income – incentivizes profitability and operation efficiency
2. | Non-GAAP Revenue – broad topline financial metric incentivizing business development and growth
3. | Adjusted Free Cash Flow – reflects disciplined management of the business to generate cash for investment and capital returns

Additional 402(v) Disclosure [Text Block] | Relationship Between Pay and Performance We believe the “Compensation Actually Paid” in each of the years reported above and over the three-year cumulative period are reflective of the Compensation Committee’s emphasis on “pay-for-performance.” “Compensation Actually Paid” is higher than our Summary Compensation Total figures in each year due to the increased value of performance-based and equity compensation as a result of strong stock price performance over the three-year period. |  |

Non-GAAP Measure Description [Text Block] |
(6) | As noted in “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” the Compensation Committee selected Non-GAAP Operating Income as a key metric for evaluating and rewarding management’s performance in the 2023 incentive program design. This measure is used to determine the payout of 40% of the 2023 corporate bonus plan, as well as 75% of the LTIP (on a three-year aggregated basis), and is aligned with the earnings we have reported to stockholders on a quarterly basis.
