Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements of PAR Technology Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X pertaining to interim financial statements as promulgated by the SEC. In the opinion of management, the Company's financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading and to provide a fair presentation of the Company's financial results for the interim period included in this Quarterly Report. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any future periods. The information included in this Quarterly Report should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”). The results of operations of the Company's Government segment are reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented and the remaining related assets and liabilities associated with the discontinued operations are classified as held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. All results and information in the condensed consolidated financial statements are presented as continuing operations and exclude the Government segment unless otherwise noted specifically as discontinued operations.
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to these estimates and assumptions include revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, the recognition and measurement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations at fair value, the carrying amount of property, plant, and equipment including right-to-use assets and liabilities, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, valuation allowances for receivables, valuation of excess and obsolete inventories, and measurement of contingent consideration at fair value. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Cash Held on Behalf of Customers | Cash and Cash Equivalents and Cash Held on Behalf of Customers The Company maintained bank balances that, at times, exceeded the federally insured limit during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The Company has not experienced losses relating to these deposits and management does not believe that the Company is exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to these amounts.
Discontinued Operations, Policy | Discontinued Operations In determining whether a group of assets which has been disposed of (or is to be disposed of) should be presented as a discontinued operation, the Company analyzes whether the group of assets being disposed of represented a component of the entity; that is, whether it had historic operations and cash flows that were clearly distinguished (both operationally and for financial reporting purposes). In addition, the Company considers whether the disposal represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. The assets and liabilities of a discontinued operation, other than goodwill, are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. When a portion of a goodwill reporting unit that constitutes a business is to be disposed of, the goodwill associated with that business is included in the carrying amount of the business based on the relative fair values of the business to be disposed of and the portion of the reporting unit that will be retained. The Company allocates interest to discontinued operations if the interest is directly attributable to the discontinued operations or is interest on debt that is required to be repaid as a result of the disposal.
Other assets | Other Assets Other assets include deferred implementation costs of $8.2 million and $8.8 million and deferred commissions of $3.1 million and $2.6 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The following table summarizes amortization expense for deferred implementation costs and deferred commissions:

Other Long-Term Liabilities | Other Long-Term Liabilities Other long-term liabilities include amounts owed to employees that participate in the Company’s deferred compensation plan. Amounts owed to employees participating in the deferred compensation plan were $0.3 million and $0.4 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions During the six months ended June 30, 2023, Ronald Shaich, the sole member of Act III Management LLC ("Act III Management"), served as a strategic advisor to the Company's board of directors pursuant to a strategic advisor agreement, which terminated on June 1, 2023.
