Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments & Contingencies | Commitments & Contingencies Legal Matters We are subject to routine legal claims, proceedings, and investigations associated with the normal conduct of our business activities, including commercial disputes and employment matters. We also receive from time to time information claiming that products we sell infringe or may infringe patent, trademark, or other intellectual property rights of third parties. One or more such claims of potential infringement could lead to litigation, the need to obtain licenses, the need to alter a product to avoid infringement, a settlement or judgment, or some other action or material loss by us, which could adversely affect our overall ability to protect our product designs and ultimately limit our future success in the marketplace. Additionally, we are occasionally subject to non-routine claims, proceedings, or investigations. We regularly assess such matters to determine the degree of probability that we will incur a material loss as a result of such matters, as well as the range of possible loss. An estimated loss contingency is accrued in our financial statements if it is probable we will incur a loss and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Historically, the claims, proceedings, and investigations brought against us, individually and in the aggregate, have not had a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position. However, it is not possible to predict the outcome of the pending actions, and, as with any litigation, it is possible that some of these actions could be decided unfavorably. Consequently, management is unable to estimate the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary loss, amounts covered by insurance, or the financial impact that will result from such matters. In addition, we cannot assure that we will be able to successfully defend ourselves in those matters, or that any amounts accrued in relation to a potential loss are sufficient. Unconditional Purchase Obligations During the normal course of our business, we enter into agreements to purchase goods and services, including commitments for endorsement agreements with professional athletes and other endorsers, consulting and service agreements, intellectual property licensing agreements pursuant to which we are required to pay royalty fees, and signed lease agreements of which we have not taken possession as of year-end. The amounts listed below approximate the minimum purchase obligations we are obligated to pay under these agreements. The actual amounts paid under some of the agreements may be higher or lower than these amounts due to the variable nature of these obligations. As of December 31, 2023, the minimum obligation that we are required to pay under these agreements over the next five years as follows (in millions):
2024 | $ | 52.5 |
2025 | 37.9 |
2026 | 25.1 |
2027 | 18.3 |
2028 | 11.5 |
Total minimum obligations | $ | 145.3 |
Our minimum capital commitment related to lease agreements for Topgolf venues under construction, net of amount reimbursed by third-party real estate financing partners, of $107.0 million is not reflected in this total. These commitments are generally outstanding for periods less than a year. See Note 6 for further information. Other Contingent Contractual Obligations During our normal course of business, we have made certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These include (i) intellectual property indemnities to our customers and licensees in connection with the use, sale and/or license of our product or trademarks, (ii) indemnities to various lessors in connection with facility leases for certain claims arising from such facilities or leases, (iii) indemnities to vendors and service providers pertaining to the goods and services provided to us or based on our negligence or willful misconduct and (iv) indemnities involving the accuracy of representations and warranties in certain contracts. In addition, we have consulting agreements that provide for payment of nominal fees upon the issuance of patents and/or the commercialization of research results. We have also issued guarantees in the form of standby letters of credit of $15.6 million as of December 31, 2023. The duration of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees varies, and in certain cases, may be indefinite. The majority of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees do not provide for any limitation on the maximum amount of future payments we could be obligated to make. Historically, costs incurred to settle claims related to indemnities have not been material to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, we believe the likelihood is remote that payments under the commitments and guarantees described above will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. The fair value of indemnities, commitments and guarantees that we issued during the year ended and as of December 31, 2023 was not material to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
