Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation and Recent Developments | 1. Business and Basis of Presentation Stagwell Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” or “Stagwell”), incorporated under the laws of Delaware, conducts its business through its networks and its portfolio of marketing services firms (“Brands”), which provide marketing and business solutions that realize the potential of combining data and creativity. Stagwell’s strategy is to build, grow and acquire market-leading businesses that deliver the modern suite of services that marketers need to thrive in a rapidly evolving business environment. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Stagwell and its subsidiaries. Stagwell has prepared the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements included herein in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for reporting interim financial information on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, pursuant to these rules, the footnotes do not include certain information and disclosures. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make judgments, assumptions and estimates about current and future results of operations and cash flows that affect the amounts reported and disclosed. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. The consolidated results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (“2022 Form 10-K”). The accompanying financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair statement, in all material respects, of the information contained therein. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial information to conform to the current year presentation. We recorded an out-of-period adjustment in the first quarter of 2023 which should have been reflected in the prior year financial statements. The impact of the adjustment was to allocate Accumulated other comprehensive loss to noncontrolling interest shareholders. As a result of the correction, Noncontrolling interests and Accumulated other comprehensive loss declined by approximately $24.0 million, but there was no impact to Total Shareholders’ Equity. The adjustment was reflected within other comprehensive income (loss). There was no impact to Net income in the annual or interim periods within the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company evaluated the impact of the out-of-period adjustment and concluded that this error was not material to the current period or any of its previously issued financial statements.
