Goodwill Disclosure [Text Block] | 4. Goodwill Goodwill represents the consideration paid in excess of the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination. As of June 30, 2022, the total balance of goodwill was $110,780, a decrease of $54,308 from December 31, 2021, as a result of a non-cash impairment charge of $55,400 partially offset by $1,092 attributable to the True North Acquisition (Note 11, Business acquisition). The balance also includes goodwill from the acquisition of Interactive Data, LLC, the Fluent LLC Acquisition, the Q Interactive Acquisition, the AdParlor Acquisition, and the Initial Winopoly Acquisition (Note 11, Business acquisition). In connection with the Initial Winopoly Acquisition, the Company recorded 100% equity ownership for GAAP purposes due to Winopoly's status as a VIE for which the Company is a primary beneficiary, so no further goodwill was acquired in connection with the Full Winopoly Acquisition described in Note 11, Business acquisition. In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, goodwill is assessed at least annually for impairment, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable, by assessing qualitative factors or performing a quantitative analysis in determining whether it is more likely than not that its fair value exceeds the carrying value. The measurement date of the Company's annual goodwill impairment test is October 1. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company determined that the decline in the market value of its publicly-traded stock, which resulted in a corresponding decline in its market capitalization, constituted a triggering event. The Company conducted an interim test of the fair value of the Fluent reporting unit's goodwill for potential impairment as of June 30, 2022. The Company considered a combination of income and market approaches to determine the fair value of the Fluent reporting unit. The Company determined that a market-based approach, which considered the Company’s implied market multiple applied to management’s forecast and further adjusted for a control premium, provided the best indication of fair value of the Fluent reporting unit. The results of this market-based approach indicated that its carrying value exceeded its fair value by 27%. The Company therefore concluded that the Fluent reporting unit’s goodwill of $162.0 million was impaired and recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $55.4 million. The Company believes that the assumptions utilized in its interim impairment testing, including forecasted cash flows, market multiples and control premiums, are reasonable.
