Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Contingencies | Contingencies From time to time, we are a party to various legal proceedings and governmental inquiries arising in the ordinary course of business. We reserve for loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. We regularly monitor developments related to these legal proceedings and inquiries, and review the adequacy of our legal reserves on a quarterly basis. We do not expect these losses to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements if and when such losses are incurred. We are subject to unclaimed property audits by states in the ordinary course of business. The property subject to review in the audit process include unclaimed wages, vendor payments and customer refunds. State escheat laws generally require entities to report and remit abandoned and unclaimed property to the state. Failure to timely report and remit the property can result in assessments that could include interest and penalties, in addition to the payment of the escheat liability itself. We routinely remit escheat payments to states in compliance with applicable escheat laws. California Attorney General. The California Attorney General (“CAG”) previously issued an investigative subpoena seeking information with respect to our Acceptance Now business practices (now part of the Preferred Lease segment). The request for documents and information was sought in connection with a broader investigation of the lease-to-own industry in California. Since receiving such demand, we have cooperated with the CAG in connection with its investigation and made several productions of requested documents. In March 2020, the CAG put forth proposed settlement terms to address alleged violations of California law. The proposed settlement terms include civil penalties, disgorgement of certain revenues, additional training requirements, and recommended changes to Acceptance Now business practices. We believe that our business practices are in compliance with California law and are continuing to discuss resolution of the inquiry with the CAG. At this point, while we cannot predict the ultimate outcome, we do not believe any such outcome will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
