Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions Consensus As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company held approximately 1.0 million and 1.1 million shares of the common stock of Consensus, respectively, representing approximately 5% of the Consensus outstanding common stock. The Company determined that Consensus was no longer a related party after September 30, 2022. Related party transactions with Consensus through September 30, 2022 are included within the disclosures below. In preparation for and in executing the Separation, the Company incurred transaction-related costs, some of which were, reimbursed by Consensus. These transaction costs primarily related to professional fees associated with preparation of regulatory filings and transaction execution and separation activities within finance, tax, and legal functions. In connection with the Separation, Ziff Davis and Consensus entered into several agreements that govern the relationship of the parties following the Separation, including a separation and distribution agreement, a transition services agreement, a tax matters agreement, an employee matters agreement, an intellectual property license agreement, and a stockholder and registration rights agreement. The transition services agreement governs services including certain information technology services, finance and accounting services, and human resource and employee benefit services. The agreed-upon charges for such services are generally intended to allow the providing company to recover all costs and expenses of providing such services, and nearly all such services were terminated without extension twelve months after the Separation. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded an offset to expense of approximately zero and $1.2 million, respectively, from Consensus related to the transition services agreement within ‘General and administrative expenses’ within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Consensus paid the Company approximately $11.5 million and $11.5 million, respectively, related to reimbursement of the items described above. Further, the Company assigned its lease of office space in Los Angeles, California to Consensus. Ziff Davis remained the lessee under this lease and its obligations remained in place through October 7, 2022, after which time Consensus took over the lease in full. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded an offset to lease expense of approximately $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, related to this lease, however, Consensus paid the landlord directly (other than an immaterial amount of sublease payments from Ziff Davis to Consensus). OCV OCV is considered a related party because it is an investment that is accounted for by the equity method. On September 25, 2017, the Company entered into a commitment to invest in the OCV Fund. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized expense for management fees of zero and $0.8 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized expense for management fees of zero and $1.5 million, net of tax benefit, respectively. During both the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company received no distributions from OCV.
