OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION [Abstract] |
Nature of Operations [Text Block] | Summary of Business Founded in 1982, TTEC Holdings, Inc. (“TTEC”, “the Company”; pronounced “T-TEC”) is a global customer experience (“CX”) outsourcing partner for marquee and disruptive brands and public sector clients. The Company designs, builds, and operates technology-enabled customer experiences across live interaction channels and provides data-driven digital solutions to help clients improve customer satisfaction and loyalty, increase customer revenue and profitability, and optimize overall cost to serve. As of September 30, 2025, TTEC served approximately 660 clients across targeted industry verticals including financial services, healthcare, public sector, communications, technology, media, entertainment, travel and hospitality, automotive and retail. The Company operates and reports its financial results of operations through two business segments:
| • | TTEC Digital is one of the largest CX technology and service providers and is focused on the intersection of Contact Center as a Service (“CCaaS”), Customer Relationship Management (“CRM”), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Analytics. A professional services organization comprised of software engineers, systems architects, data scientists and CX strategists, this segment creates and implements strategic CX transformation roadmaps; sells, operates, and provides managed services for cloud platforms and premise-based CX technologies including Amazon Web Services (“AWS”), Cisco, Genesys, Google, and Microsoft; and creates proprietary IP to support industry specific and custom client needs. TTEC Digital serves clients across enterprise and small and medium-sized business segments and has a dedicated unit with government technology certifications serving the public sector.
| • | TTEC Engage provides the digitally enabled CX operational and managed services to support large, complex enterprise clients’ end-to-end customer interactions at scale across the world. Tailored to meet industry-specific business needs, this segment delivers data-driven omnichannel customer care, customer acquisition, growth, and retention services, tech support, fraud mitigation and back-office solutions. The segment’s technology-enabled delivery model covers the entire solution lifecycle including associate recruitment, onboarding, training, delivery, workforce management and quality assurance.
TTEC pursues its CX market leadership through strategic collaboration across TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage. Together, TTEC’s ability to deliver comprehensive and transformational customer experience solutions to its clients is a marketplace differentiation, including integrated CX technology and service solutions, go-to-market strategies, and innovative offerings. During the third quarter of 2025, the TTEC global operating platform delivered onshore, nearshore, and offshore services in 22 countries on six continents – the United States, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Colombia, Costa Rica, Egypt, Germany, Greece, Honduras, India, Ireland, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the Philippines, Poland, South Africa, Thailand, and the United Kingdom, with contributions from approximately 52,000 customer care associates, consultants, technologists, and CX professionals.
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Basis of Presentation The Consolidated Financial Statements are comprised of the accounts of TTEC, its wholly owned subsidiaries and its 55% equity owned subsidiary Percepta, LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to state fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company and the consolidated results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and the consolidated cash flows of the Company. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Use of Estimates The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including those related to derivatives and hedging activities, income taxes including the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, litigation reserves, restructuring reserves, allowance for credit losses, contingent consideration, and valuation of goodwill, long-lived and intangible assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Concentration of Credit Risk The Company is exposed to credit risk in the normal course of business, primarily related to accounts receivable and derivative instruments. Historically, the losses related to credit risk have been immaterial due to the Company’s focus on managing its collection processes to reduce its credit risk. The Company regularly monitors its credit risk to mitigate the possibility of current and future exposures resulting in a loss. The Company evaluates the creditworthiness of its clients prior to entering into an agreement to provide services and as necessary through the life of the client relationship. The Company does not believe it is exposed to more than a nominal amount of credit risk in its derivative hedging activities, as the Company diversifies its activities across multiple investment-grade financial institutions.
Liquidity | Liquidity As discussed in Note 10, the Company’s Credit Agreement includes a number of financial covenants and operating restrictions, failure to comply with which could result in a default under the Credit Agreement. On November 5, 2025, the Company entered into a Tenth Amendment (the “Tenth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, which extends the maturity date to November 23, 2027 and modifies certain other material terms of the Credit Facility, including the size of the facility, pricing, and certain covenants. The Tenth Amendment is discussed in more detail in Note 10. As of the issuance of these unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company believes it has sufficient cash on hand, positive working capital, and availability to access additional cash under the Credit Facility to meet its business operating requirements and make its capital expenditures and to continue to comply with the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement for the next 12 months from the issuance of these financial statements. In the event that the Company does not remain in compliance with the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement, it may need to negotiate additional amendments to or waivers of the terms of such credit facilities, refinance its debt, reduce discretionary spending or raise additional capital.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses” which relates to measurement of credit losses for accounts receivable and contract assets and provides a practical expedient. When developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating credit losses, all entities may elect a practical expedient that assumes current conditions as of the balance sheet do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual reporting periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company adopted the standard September 30, 2025. The adoption did not impact the Company’s consolidated balance sheet or income statement. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” which relates to disclosures regarding a public entity’s reportable segments and provides more detailed information about a reportable segment’s expenses. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with retrospective application required. The Company adopted the standard December 31, 2024, retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. The adoption resulted in the Company adding the required detailed segment information within the Company’s segment disclosure footnote. Other Accounting Pronouncements In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect on its annual consolidated financial statement disclosures; however, adoption is not expected to impact the Company’s consolidated balance sheets or income statements. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” in response to longstanding requests from investors for more information about an entity’s expenses, specifically categories of expenses such as (purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, and depletion). The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is still evaluating the potential impact of the pronouncement. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other Internal Use Software” which was issued to modernize the accounting for software costs and removes all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those fiscal reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The Company is still evaluating the potential impact of the pronouncement.
