Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as revenues and expenses. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results involve judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We regularly evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments, particularly those that include the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments which are often about matters that are inherently uncertain. We evaluate our critical accounting policies and estimates on an ongoing basis and update them as necessary based on changes in market conditions or factors specific to us. There have been no material changes in our significant accounting policies or critical accounting estimates during 2025. For a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 within Note 1. Organization, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and New Accounting Standards to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates”.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the fair value of an acquired business in excess of the fair value of the identified net assets acquired. As of September 30, 2025, we had goodwill of $1.4 billion.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually, with a recurring testing date of October 1, or whenever indicators of impairment exist. We may assess goodwill for impairment initially based on qualitative considerations, referred to as “step zero”, to determine whether conditions exist that indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If management concludes, based on its assessment of relevant events, facts and circumstances that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s carrying value is greater than its fair value, then a quantitative analysis, referred to as step one, will be performed to determine if there is any impairment. We may alternatively elect to initially perform a quantitative assessment and bypass the qualitative assessment. Quantitative goodwill impairment assessments require a significant amount of management judgment, and a meaningful change in the forecasted future revenues and cash flows, the discount rate, and the determination of market multiples used in testing goodwill for impairment could result in a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

During the third quarter of 2025, due to the continued the shift in strategy to focus on potential new partners with scaled customer bases and the change in customer mix within the Technology Platform segment, management concluded, based on its assessment of these factors, it would perform an interim quantitative assessment on the Galileo and Technisys reporting units as of September 1, 2025 to determine if there was any goodwill impairment.

As of September 1, 2025, management calculated the fair value amount of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units using an evenly weighted combination of a DCF calculation, which is a form of the income approach, and a market multiples calculation, which is a form of the market approach. The discount rates used for the Galileo and Technisys reporting units in our interim quantitative assessment were 12.9% and 19.3%, respectively. The higher discount rate at Technisys, relative to Galileo, was primarily driven by macroeconomic factors in Latin America, specifically the highly inflationary economic environment in Argentina. Additionally, management applied a terminal year long-term growth rate of 4.0% to both reporting units. As a result of this interim quantitative assessment, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units were determined to be above their respective carrying values which resulted in no impairment at September 1, 2025. If the discount rate applied to the estimated cash flows was increased or decreased by 50 basis points, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units would decrease or increase by approximately 4% and 3%, respectively. Similarly, if the long-term growth rate was increased or decreased by 50 basis points, the fair value of the Galileo and Technisys reporting units would increase or decrease by approximately 2% and 1%, respectively. Or, if the Company’s market capitalization was to decline due to unforeseen factors or if changes in our customer mix were to transpire at a rate significantly different than anticipated, it could impact the fair value of the respective units.

Subsequent to our September 1, 2025 interim goodwill assessment, the Company aggregated its Galileo and Technisys reporting units into a single reporting unit, Technology Platform. This update is reflective of the operational and strategic integration of these former two reporting units - and is consistent with how segment management manages the business. As a result, the amount of goodwill previously assigned to Galileo and Technisys of $816.0 million and $522.6 million, respectively, will be combined in the Technology Platform reporting unit ($1.3 billion).

Management cannot predict the occurrence of certain events or changes in circumstances that might adversely affect the value of goodwill. We continue to monitor the aforementioned conditions, the general macroeconomic environment, including the interest rate environment, inflationary pressures, and the potential for a prolonged economic downturn or recession, as well as other factors, including those listed in "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report. Further persistence of the aforementioned conditions and these other factors could result in impairment charges in future periods.
