Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | 10. Commitments and Contingencies Legal Proceedings and Other Matters From time to time, the Company is involved in, or may become subject to, legal proceedings, claims and government investigations arising in the ordinary course of business, including disputes related to intellectual property, commercial agreements, privacy matters and employment issues. We describe below certain legal proceedings to which we are a party. Verve Group Arbitration As previously disclosed in our 2025 Form 10-K, we are currently involved in a dispute with Verve Group Europe GmbH (“Verve”). In December 2025, Verve filed a petition to compel arbitration against our subsidiary, Zemanta, Inc., in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. Verve alleges breach of contract related to certain unpaid invoices and seeks payment of approximately $8.1 million. The dispute relates to withholdings we applied to Verve’s accounts following the identification of significant volumes of invalid traffic and non-compliant activity originating from Verve’s inventory. We believe Verve’s claims are without merit, as it is our position that our withholdings were based on documented traffic quality issues, and we intend to defend the matter vigorously. As of March 31, 2026, no material developments have occurred since the filing of the 2025 Form 10-K. Based on the information currently available to us regarding this dispute, we have not recorded an accrual as a loss is not considered probable or reasonably estimable. We will continue to monitor and evaluate the status of this case each quarter to determine the need for additional disclosure pursuant to ASC 450. Other Matters In addition to the matter described above, we are subject to various other legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, which arise in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the final outcome of any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In connection with the Acquisition, the Company identified and recorded a $19.6 million provision related to certain income tax items under ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” and an $8.5 million provision related to certain non-income tax items accounted for under ASC 450, “Contingencies,” within contingent tax liabilities in its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026. The Company has also recorded an indemnification asset in the full amount of the provision of $28.1 million, as the Company is indemnified against certain tax liabilities under the Share Purchase Agreement, dated August 1, 2024, with Altice Teads S.A. (“Altice Teads”), as amended on February 3, 2025. Altice Teads’ indemnification obligation may be increased if other indemnified risks materialize and will remain in place until all covered matters are resolved. Any determination or estimate relating to the future resolution of the Company’s legal proceedings is inherently uncertain and involves significant judgment. This is especially true in the early stages of a legal matter when legal issues and facts have not been thoroughly analyzed, in situations where the claimants seek very large or indeterminate damages, where cases present novel legal theories or involve a large number of parties, or where claims or other actions may be possible but have not been brought. As a result of this uncertainty, the Company may not be able to determine whether a favorable or unfavorable outcome is remote, reasonably likely, or probable, or to estimate the amount or range of loss until relatively late in the course of a legal matter. Further, any judgment or estimate relating to claims may change over time in light of developments, and actual outcomes may differ materially from our estimates.
