Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Background and Basis of Presentation | Background and Basis of Presentation Company and Background Chegg, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Company” or “Chegg”), headquartered in Santa Clara, California, was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in July 2005. Millions of people all around the world Learn with Chegg. Our mission is to improve learning and learning outcomes by putting students first. We support life-long learners starting with their academic journey and extending into their careers. The Chegg platform provides products and services to support learners to help them better understand their academic course materials, and also provides personal and professional development skills training, to help them achieve their learning goals. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of Chegg, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of September 30, 2023, our results of operations, results of comprehensive (loss) income, and stockholders' equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Our results of operations, results of comprehensive (loss) income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. We have a single operating and reportable segment and operating unit structure. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the Annual Report on Form 10-K) filed with the SEC. Except for our policies on strategic investments, there have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Strategic Investments Investments in partnerships where we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Equity method investments are initially recorded at cost and adjusted for our share of the investees' earnings or losses, based on our percentage ownership, recognized on a one-quarter lag basis within other income, net on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Investments in entities where we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence and which do not have readily determinable fair values are accounted for at cost, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, if any. Strategic investments are included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We assess our strategic investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may be impaired. The factors we consider in our evaluation include, but are not limited to, a significant deterioration in the earnings performance or business prospects of the investee or factors that raise significant concerns about the investee’s ability to continue as a going concern, such as negative cash flows from operations or working capital deficiencies. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities; the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience, knowledge of current business conditions, and various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge about current events and expectations about actions we may undertake in the future. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material to our financial position and results of operations. There have been no material changes in our use of estimates during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the use of estimates disclosed in Part II, Item 8 “Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Leases During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we extended our existing lease agreement related to our corporate headquarters in Santa Clara and reassessed lease terms related to office spaces internationally in India, resulting in the recording of $12.4 million of right of use assets in exchange for lease liabilities.
