Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
Related Parties | Related Parties Sale of Bakkt Trust On March 17, 2025, Bakkt entered into an agreement with ICE whereby ICE agreed to purchase all of the outstanding equity interests of Bakkt Trust for a cash payment of $1.5 million plus the assumption of Bakkt Trust’s regulatory capital requirement, which was approximately $3.0 million as of signing, and certain operating costs of Bakkt Trust during the period between the signing of the purchase agreement and the closing of the transaction (subject to such closing). The sale of Bakkt Trust was completed on May 15, 2025. As a result of the sale, Bakkt recognized a loss of $2.3 million reflected in Other (expense) income, net in the consolidated statement of operations. In conjunction with the sale of Bakkt Trust, Bakkt and ICE entered into a transition services agreement ("TSA") whereby the Company agreed to provide certain transitional services to ICE for defined fees for a period of up to six months from closing of the sale of Bakkt Trust. Amounts billed under the TSA generally relate to pass through of a portion of third-party software costs and time incurred by Bakkt employees supporting Bakkt Trust. The TSA can be terminated with six months notice by either party for cause or by mutual agreement of the parties. The amount of fees charged to ICE under the TSA were not material for the three-month period ended June 30, 2025. Amounts billed under the TSA are generally recognized as a recovery of expenses incurred or as a component of "Other (expense) income, net" in the consolidated statements of operations. The amount of any receivables owed to Bakkt under the TSA were not material as of June 30, 2025. ICE Credit Facility On August 12, 2024, Bakkt and Opco entered into the ICE Credit Facility, with certain subsidiaries of Bakkt party thereto from time to time, as guarantors, whereby the Lender agreed to provide a $40.0 million secured revolving line of credit to the Company for working capital and general corporate purposes. For the period beginning December 31, 2024 through March 30, 2025, Opco could borrow up to an aggregate principal amount (excluding any capitalized interest) of $10.0 million. For the period beginning March 31 through June 29, 2025, Opco could borrow up to an aggregate principal amount (excluding any capitalized interest) of $20.0 million. From the period beginning June 30 through September 29, 2025, Opco could borrow up to an aggregate principal amount (excluding any capitalized interest) of $30.0 million. Loans under the ICE Credit Facility do not amortize and mature on December 31, 2026. Borrowings under the ICE Credit Facility accrue interest at a rate equal to, at Opco’s election, either the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) for a term of one, three or six months plus 12%, or the prime rate plus 11%. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears with respect to borrowings bearing interest at the prime rate or on the last day of an interest period, but at least every three months, with respect to borrowings bearing interest at the term SOFR rate; provided, that Opco can elect to pay interest in kind by adding such interest amount to the principal amount of the outstanding borrowings under the ICE Credit Facility. For any interest period for which Opco has elected to pay interest in kind, the applicable margin on the outstanding loans will increase by 1% per annum. Under certain circumstances, a default interest rate will apply on all obligations during the existence of an event of default under the ICE Credit Facility at a per annum rate equal to 2% above the otherwise applicable interest rate. Opco pays a commitment fee of 0.5% per annum on the daily average of the available commitment that can be borrowed, less the outstanding principal amount of all loans (excluding any capitalized interest). Fees are payable in cash quarterly and at maturity. Loans under the ICE Credit Facility can be prepaid without penalty, subject to customary breakage costs for loans bearing interest at the term SOFR rate. Amounts repaid under the ICE Credit Facility can be reborrowed prior to the maturity date, subject to certain customary conditions set forth in the ICE Credit Facility. The ICE Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including negative covenants limiting the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur debt, grant liens, undergo certain fundamental changes, dispose of assets, make certain restricted payments and prepayments, enter into restrictive agreements, enter into transactions with affiliates, make investments, and amend certain agreements relating to debt, in each case, subject to limitations and exceptions set forth in the ICE Credit Facility. The ICE Credit Facility also contains various customary events of default that include, among others, payment defaults, breach of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross defaults to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, judgment defaults, and events constituting a change of control, subject to thresholds and cure periods as set forth in the ICE Credit Facility. The obligations under the ICE Credit Facility are required to be guaranteed by Bakkt and certain material domestic subsidiaries of the Company and secured by substantially all of the personal property of the Company and such subsidiary guarantors. On March 27, 2025, the Company drew down $5.0 million under ICE Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2025, approximately $5.0 million of borrowings were outstanding under the ICE Credit Facility. On June 18, 2025, the Company repaid all principal and accrued interest then outstanding on the ICE Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2025, there are no borrowings outstanding under the ICE Credit Facility. On June 17, 2025, the Company, the Borrower and ICE entered into an amendment to the ICE Credit Facility to permit the issuance of the Convertible Debenture described in Note 6. The Company recognized interest expense of $0.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. No interest costs were incurred related to the ICE Credit Facility for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 since the ICE Credit Facility was not in place as of June 30, 2024. The effective interest rate on the ICE Credit Facility as of payoff on June 18, 2025 was 16.3%. On July 30, 2025, the Company terminated the ICE Credit Facility and repaid all fees due thereunder through the date of termination. ICE Management and Technical Support Upon consummation of the VIH Business Combination, the Company entered into a Transition Services Agreement with ICE (the “ICE TSA”), pursuant to which ICE provided insurance, digital warehouse, data center, technical support, and other transition-related services in exchange for quarterly service fees payable by us. The ICE TSA terminated in December 2023. Bakkt did not recognize any expense related to the ICE TSA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, zero and $2.4 million was recorded as “Due to related party” in the consolidated balance sheets related to the ICE TSA, respectively.
