Supplemental Information | 12. Supplemental Information Stock Based Awards Stock-based compensation recognized for awards authorized under the Company’s employee stock incentive plans during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $33.3 million and $26.3 million, respectively. This increase was included as a component of stock-based compensation in Office and general expenses and Cost of services within the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations. On June 14, 2023, the Company’s compensation committee approved the modification of certain stock appreciation right awards. The modification provides the grantees the option to settle the awards in either cash or Class A Common Stock. As a result, the Company recognized $4.3 million and $0.5 million of incremental stock-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and a liability of $6.0 million as of September 30, 2023. The incremental expense is included in Office and general expenses in the Unaudited Consolidated Statement of Operations. The associated liability is included in Accruals and other liabilities in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries grant awards to their employees providing them with an equity interest in the respective subsidiary (the “profits interests awards”). The awards generally provide the employee the right, but not the obligation, to sell their profits interest in the subsidiary to the Company based on a performance-based formula and, in certain cases, receive a profit share distribution. The profits interests awards are primarily settled in cash, with certain awards having stock-settlement provisions at the Company’s discretion. The corresponding liability associated with these profits interests awards was $17.3 million and $21.0 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is included as a component of Accruals and other liabilities and Other liabilities on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Stock-based compensation recognized for these awards was $1.3 million and $5.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This was included as a component of stock-based compensation in Cost of services within the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations. Transfer of Accounts Receivable The Company transfers certain of its trade receivable assets to third parties under agreements to sell certain of its accounts receivables. Per the terms of these agreements, the Company surrenders control over its trade receivables upon transfer. The trade receivables transferred to the third parties were $263.7 million and $87.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The amount collected and due to the third parties under these arrangements was $10.1 million as of September 30, 2023 and $5.7 million as of December 31, 2022. Fees for these arrangements were recorded in Office and general expenses in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations and totaled $4.1 million and $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Impairment and Other Losses The Company recognized an impairment and other losses charge of $10.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 related to the impairment of an intangible asset totaling $1.4 million, right-of-use lease assets totaling $6.1 million and its related leasehold improvements totaling $3.1 million. The intangible asset impairment related to the discontinuation of a trade name in the Brand Performance Network reportable segment. The Company recognized an impairment and other losses charge of $28.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily related to the impairment of goodwill totaling $23.5 million, and the impairment of right-of-use lease assets and related leasehold improvements totaling $2.0 million. The goodwill impairment was to write-down the carrying value in excess of the fair value at two reporting units, one within the Brand Performance Network and one within the All Other category. The right-of-use lease asset and related leasehold improvement impairment was recorded in two reporting units, one in Brand Performance Network reporting segment, and one in Integrated Agencies Network reporting segment. The expense was recorded within Impairment and other losses on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations. Current Expected Credit Losses The Company adopted ASC 326, Current Expected Credit Losses, on January 1, 2023, which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses using a current expected credit loss model. The allowance for credit losses on expected future uncollectible accounts receivable is estimated considering forecasts of future economic conditions in addition to information about past events and current conditions. The adoption resulted in an increase in the allowance for accounts receivables and a decrease to opening Retained earnings of $2.1 million, of which $1.4 million was subsequently allocated to noncontrolling interests. These amounts are presented within the “Other” line on the Statement of Shareholders’ Equity.
