Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization, Nature of Business, and Basis of Presentation	Note 1. Organization, Nature of Business, and Basis of Presentation First Advantage Corporation, a Delaware corporation, was formed on November 15, 2019. Hereafter, First Advantage Corporation and its subsidiaries will collectively be referred to as the “Company”. The Company derives its revenues from a variety of background check and compliance services performed across all phases of the workforce lifecycle from pre-onboarding services to post-onboarding and ongoing monitoring services, covering employees, contractors, contingent and extended workers, drivers, tenants, and volunteers. We generally classify our service offerings into three categories: pre-onboarding, post-onboarding, and adjacent products. Pre-onboarding services are comprised of an extensive array of products and solutions that customers typically utilize to enhance their evaluation process and support compliance from the time a job or other application is submitted to a successful applicant’s onboarding date. This includes searches such as criminal background checks, drug / health screenings, extended workforce screening, biometrics and identity checks, education / workforce verification, driver records and compliance, healthcare credentials, and executive screening. Post-onboarding services are comprised of continuous monitoring and re-screening solutions which are important tools to help keep their end customers, workforces, and other stakeholders safer, productive, and compliant. Our post-monitoring solutions include criminal records, healthcare sanctions, motor vehicle records, social media, and global sanctions screening continuously or at regular intervals selected by our customers. Adjacent products include products that complement our pre-onboarding and post-onboarding products and solutions. This includes fleet / vehicle compliance, hiring tax credits and incentives, resident / tenant screening, employment eligibility, and investigative research. Basis of Presentation —The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company includes the results of operations of acquired companies prospectively from the date of acquisition. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, such financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to summarize fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The interim results reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements should not be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for future interim periods or the full year. For a more comprehensive understanding of the Company and its condensed consolidated financial statements, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company has historically experienced seasonality with respect to certain customer industries as a result of fluctuations in hiring volumes and other economic activities. Generally, the Company’s highest revenues have historically occurred between October and November of each year, driven by many customers’ pre-holiday season hiring initiatives. Segments — Operating segments are businesses for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company made organizational changes and modified information provided to its CODM to better align with how its CODM assesses performance and allocates resources. As a result, the Company now has two reportable segments, Americas and International: • Americas provides technology solutions for screening, verifications, safety, and compliance in the United States, Canada, and Latin America markets; and • International provides technology solutions for screening, verifications, safety, and compliance outside of the Americas. Accordingly, prior period results have been recast to conform to the current presentation of segments. These changes do not impact the Company’s consolidated results. The Company’s segment disclosure is intended to provide the users of its consolidated financial statements with a view of the business that is consistent with management of the Company. Details of segment results are discussed in Note 16, “Reportable Segments.” Use of Estimates — The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates, judgments, and assumptions, include, but are not limited to, the determination of the fair value and useful lives of assets acquired and liabilities assumed through business combinations, the impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill impairment, collectability of receivables, revenue recognition, capitalized software, assumptions used for purposes of determining share-based compensation and income tax liabilities and assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Fair Value of Financial Instruments — Certain financial assets and liabilities are reported at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurement . ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The valuation techniques required by ASC 820 are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy: Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable. Level 3 — Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable (supported by little or no market activities). These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that reflect the Company’s best estimate of fair value from a market participant. The fair value of an asset is considered to be the price at which the asset could be sold in an orderly transaction between unrelated knowledgeable and willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, rather than the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured using a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, receivables, short-term debt, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments (Level 1). The fair values and carrying values of the Company’s long-term debt are disclosed in Note 6. The following table presents information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and their assigned levels within the valuation hierarchy as of September 30, 2022 (in thousands): Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets Interest rate swaps $ — $ 11,754 $ — Other intangible assets are subject to nonrecurring fair value measurement as the result of business acquisitions. The fair values of these assets were estimated using the present value of expected future cash flows through unobservable inputs (Level 3). Business Combinations — The Company records business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations . Under the acquisition method of accounting, identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their acquisition-date fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value is recorded as goodwill. Changes in the estimated fair values of net assets recorded for acquisitions prior to the finalization of more detailed analysis, but not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, will adjust the amount of the purchase price allocable to goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are reflected in the period in which they occur. In valuing the trade names, customer lists, and software developed for internal use, the Company utilizes variations of the income approach, which relies on historical financial and qualitative information, as well as assumptions and estimates for projected financial information. The Company considers the income approach the most appropriate valuation technique because the inherent value of these assets is their ability to generate current and future income. Projected financial information is subject to risk if estimates are incorrect. The most significant estimate relates to projected revenues and profitability. If the projected revenues and profitability used in the valuation calculations are not met, then the asset could be impaired. Goodwill, Trade Name, and Customer Lists — The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually as of December 31 or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset below its carrying value. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level using a fair value approach. At December 31, 2021, the Company had two reporting units comprised of the Americas and International. When testing goodwill for impairment, the Company may first perform an optional qualitative assessment. If the Company determines it is not more likely than not the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, then no further analysis is necessary. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the quantitative impairment test will be performed. Under the quantitative impairment test, if the carrying amount of the Company’s reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company will recognize an impairment loss in an amount equal to that excess but limited to the total amount of goodwill. No impairment charges have been required. The Company’s trade name is amortized on an accelerated basis over its expected useful life of twenty years . The Company recorded $ 1.9 million and $ 2.0 million of amortization expense related to the trade name for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Amortization expense related to the trade name was $ 5.7 million and $ 6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Customer lists are amortized on an accelerated basis based upon their estimated useful life of thirteen to fourteen years . The Company recorded $ 15.1 million and $ 16.4 million of amortization expense related to customer lists for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Amortization expense related to customer lists was $ 45.6 million and $ 49.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company regularly evaluates the amortization period assigned to each intangible asset to determine whether there have been any events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives. In December 2021 , and since that time, the Company determined that there have been no triggering events that would require impairment of trade names or customer lists. Revenue Recognition — Revenues are recognized when control of the Company’s services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which was adopted as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method, revenues are recognized based on the following steps: a) Identify the contract with a customer b) Identify the performance obligations in the contract c) Determine the transaction price d) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract e) Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation A substantial majority of the Company’s revenues are derived from pre-onboarding and related services to our customers on a transactional basis, in which an individual background screening package or selection of services is ordered by a customer related to a single individual. Substantially all of the Company’s customers are employers, staffing companies, and other businesses or organizations. The Company satisfies its performance obligations and recognizes revenues for services rendered as the orders are completed and the completed reports are transmitted, or otherwise made available. The Company’s remaining services, substantially consisting of tax consulting, fleet management, and driver qualification services, are delivered over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services delivered. To measure the Company’s performance over time, the output method is utilized to measure the value to the customer based on the transfer to date of the services promised, with no rights of return once consumed. In these cases, revenues on transactional contracts with a defined price but an undefined quantity are recognized utilizing the right to invoice expedient resulting in revenues being recognized when the service is provided and becomes billable. Additionally, under this practical expedient, the Company is not required to estimate the transaction price. The Company considers negotiated and anticipated incentives and estimated adjustments, including historical collections experience, when recording revenues. The Company’s contracts with customers generally include standard commercial payment terms acceptable in each region, and do not include any financing components. The Company does not have any significant obligations for refunds, warranties, or similar obligations. The Company records revenues net of sales taxes. Due to the Company’s contract terms and the nature of the background screening industry, the Company determined its contract terms for ASC 606 purposes are less than one year. As a result, the Company uses the practical expedient which allows it to expense incremental costs of obtaining a contract, primarily consisting of sales commissions, as incurred. The Company records third-party pass-through fees incurred as part of screening related services on a gross revenue basis, with the related expense recorded as a cost of services expense, as the Company has control over the transaction and is therefore considered to be acting as a principal. The Company records motor vehicle registration and other tax payments paid on behalf of the Company’s fleet management customers on a net revenue basis as the Company does not have control over the transaction and therefore, is considered to be acting as an agent of the customer. Amounts received from fleet management customers are recorded in cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as the funds are not legally restricted. Contract balances are generated when the revenues recognized in a given period varies from billing. A contract asset is created when the Company performs a service for a customer and recognizes more revenues than what has been billed. Contract assets are included in accounts receivable in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. A contract liability is created when the Company transfers a good or service to a customer and recognizes less than what has been billed. The Company recognizes these contract liabilities as deferred revenues when the Company has an obligation to perform services for a customer in the future and has already received consideration from the customer. Contract liabilities are included in deferred revenues in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Foreign Currency — The functional currency of all of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is the applicable local currency. The translation of the applicable foreign currencies into U.S. dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenues and expense accounts using average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal year. Adjustments resulting from the translation of foreign currency financial statements are accumulated net of tax in a separate component of equity. Currency translation (loss) income included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was approximately $( 10.3 ) million and $( 3.1 ) million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Currency translation (loss) income included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was approximately $( 23.1 ) million and $( 1.6 ) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), except for those relating to intercompany transactions of a long-term investment nature, which are captured in a separate component of equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Currency transaction income included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) was approximately $ 1.1 million and $( 0.2 ) million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Currency transaction income included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) was approximately $ 2.4 million and $ 0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 , respectively. Recent Accounting Pronouncements — The Company qualifies as an emerging growth company under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (“JOBS”) Act. The JOBS Act permits the Company an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards affecting public companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period and adopt certain new accounting standards on the private company timeline, which means that the Company’s financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of public companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards on a non-delayed basis. There were no accounting pronouncements issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 that are expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements — In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases , and subsequently issued additional ASUs amending this ASU (collectively ASC 842, Leases ). ASC 842 was issued to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of right of use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Most prominent among the changes in the standard is the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Under the standard, disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 842 on January 1, 2022 using a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption in line with the new transition method allowed under ASU 2018-11. ASC 842 provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients” which permits the Company not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The Company did not elect the use-of-hindsight and elected the practical expedient pertaining to land easements. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting for leases. The Company elected the short-term lease exemption for all leases that qualify, meaning the Company will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for leases with terms shorter than twelve months. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for a majority of its asset classes, including real estate and most equipment. The adoption of ASC 842 had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets but did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of operations or cash flow. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets of $ 12.7 million and lease liabilities for operating leases of $ 15.0 million based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments for existing operating leases. The difference in the balances is due to deferred rent, tenant incentive allowances, and prepaid amounts taken into account for adoption. Our accounting for finance leases, described in Note 13, remained unchanged. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes . This ASU removes specific exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. Among other things it eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period: exception to the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation; exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments; and exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. This amendment also improves financial statement preparers’ application of income tax-related guidance and simplifies GAAP for: franchise taxes that are partially based on income; transactions with a government that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill; separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax; and enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. Adoption of this standard on January 1, 2022 did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Long-term Debt	Note 6. Long-term Debt The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt obligations approximated their book value as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and consisted of the following (in thousands): September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Successor First Lien Credit Facility $ 564,724 $ 564,724 Less: Deferred financing costs ( 8,532 ) ( 9,879 ) Long-term debt, net $ 556,192 $ 554,845 In February 2020, a new financing structure was established consisting of a new First Lien Credit Agreement (“Successor First Lien Agreement”) and a new Second Lien Credit Agreement (“Successor Second Lien Agreement”) (collectively, the “Successor Credit Agreements”). The Successor First Lien Agreement provided financing in the form of a $ 670.0 million term loan due January 31, 2027 , carrying an interest rate of 3.25 % to 3.50 %, based on the first lien leverage ratio, plus LIBOR (“Successor First Lien Credit Facility”) and a new $ 75.0 million revolving credit facility due January 31, 2025 (“Successor Revolver”). The Successor First Lien Credit Facility required mandatory quarterly repayments of 0.25 % of the original loan balance commencing September 30, 2020. Beginning with the year ending December 31, 2021, the Successor First Lien Credit Facility required mandatory payments based on calculated excess cash flow, as defined within the Successor First Lien Credit Agreement. The Successor Second Lien Agreement provided financing in the form of a $ 145.0 million term loan due January 31, 2028 , carrying an interest rate of 8.50 % plus LIBOR (“Successor Second Lien Credit Facility”). The Successor Credit Agreements are collateralized by substantially all assets and capital stock owned by direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries and are governed by certain restrictive covenants including limitations on indebtedness, liens, and other corporate actions such as investments and acquisitions. In the event the Company’s outstanding indebtedness under the Successor Revolver exceeds 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the revolving commitments then in effect, it is required to maintain a consolidated first lien leverage ratio no greater than 7.75 to 1.00 . In February 2021, the Company refinanced its Successor First Lien Credit Facility at an increased principal amount of $ 766.6 million due January 31, 2027 , carrying a reduced interest rate of 3.00 % to 3.25 %, based on the first lien leverage ratio, plus LIBOR. No changes were made to the associated revolving credit facility due January 31, 2025. In connection with the refinancing of the Successor First Lien Credit Facility, the Company fully repaid its Successor Second Lien Credit Facility. As a result of these transactions the Company recorded a total loss on extinguishment of debt of $ 13.9 million, composed of the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs plus a prepayment premium, accrued interest, and other fees. In connection with the closing of the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), on June 30, 2021, the Company repaid $ 200.0 million of its Successor First Lien Credit Facility outstanding, of which $ 44.3 million was applied to the remaining quarterly principal payments due under the Successor First Lien Agreement. As a result of the IPO, the Company’s interest rate under the Successor First Lien Credit Facility was reduced by 0.25 % to a range of 2.75 % to 3.00 %, based on the first lien ratio, plus LIBOR. The remaining $ 564.7 million term loan is scheduled to mature on January 31, 2027 . As a result of the prepayment, the Company recorded additional interest expense of $ 3.7 million associated with the accelerated amortization of the related deferred financing costs. Additionally, in connection with the closing of the IPO, the Company entered into an amendment that increased the borrowing capacity under the Successor Revolver from $ 75.0 million to $ 100.0 million and extended the maturity date from January 31, 2025 to July 31, 2026 . As of September 30, 2022 , the Company had no outstanding amounts under the Successor Revolver, and therefore, was not subject to the consolidated first lien leverage ratio covenant and was compliant with all other covenants under the agreement.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Note 8. Income Taxes The Company’s income tax expense and balance sheet accounts reflect the results of the Company and its subsidiaries. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company estimated the annual effective tax rate based on projected income for the full year and recorded a quarterly tax provision in accordance with the annual effective tax rate and adjusted for discrete tax items in the period. The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was 28.1 % and 27.8 % , respectively. The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21 % primarily due to the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) inclusion, nondeductible share-based compensation, and U.S. state income taxes. The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was 17.3 % and 75.3 % , respectively. The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2021 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21 %, primarily due to the impact of applying the annual effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2021 versus calculating the year-to-date tax expense based on actuals in the second quarter of 2021 which resulted in a true-up that was reflected in the quarter to date amount, an increase of research and development tax credits, and a favorable discrete income tax adjustment from certain changes in estimate as a result of filing certain prior year tax returns. The Company’s effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21 %, primarily due to the increase of the foreign income tax as a result of increased foreign income in various foreign tax jurisdictions, the increase of the deferred income tax liability on intangibles as a result of the UK corporate income tax rate increase, foreign withholding tax, and increased U.S. state income tax for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. These items were partially offset by an increase of research and development tax credits and a favorable discrete adjustment from the finalization of the 2020 income tax returns.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenues	Note 9. Revenues Performance obligations Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are recognized at a point in time when the orders are completed and the completed reports are reported, or otherwise made available. For revenues delivered over time, the output method is utilized to measure the value to the customer based on the transfer to date of the services promised, with no rights of return once consumed. In these cases, revenues on transactional contracts with a defined price but an undefined quantity is recognized utilizing the right to invoice expedient resulting in revenues being recognized when the service is provided and becomes billable. Additionally, under this practical expedient, the Company is not required to estimate the transaction price. Accordingly, in any period, the Company does not recognize a significant amount of revenues from performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied in prior periods and the amount of such revenues recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were immaterial. Contract assets and liabilities The contract asset balance was $ 13.5 million and $ 7.4 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and is included in accounts receivable, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Awards issued under the Successor Plan consist of options and profits interests and vest based on two criteria ( 50 % each): (1) Time — awards vest over five years at a rate of 20 % per year; and (2) Performance — awards vest based upon a combination of the five year time vesting, subject to the Company’s investors receiving a targeted money-on-money return. Options issued under the Successor Plan generally expire ten years after the grant date. No awards were issued under the plan during the period from January 1, 2021 through September 30, 2021. In connection with the Company’s IPO, the Company’s parent was dissolved. Awards issued by the Company’s parent were converted in accordance with non-discretionary anti-dilution provisions of the Successor grants as follows: • All vested outstanding profits interest grants issued by the Company’s parent were converted to common stock in the Company and all unvested outstanding profits interest grants issued by the Company’s parent were converted to restricted stock in the Company under the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2021 Equity Plan”). The number of common stock and restricted stock shares issued to each profits interest holder was ratably adjusted to preserve the fair value of the awards. Additionally, the vesting conditions and equity classification of the awards remained unchanged as a result of the conversion. • All outstanding stock option grants issued by the Company’s parent were converted into stock options issued by the Company under the terms of the individual grant agreements. The number of options granted and the strike price of the options was ratably adjusted using an exchange ratio calculated to preserve the fair value of the awards. Additionally, the vesting, vesting conditions, and equity classification of the awards remained unchanged as a result of the conversion.

The 2021 Equity Plan provides for the grant of awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted stock units, and other equity-based or cash-based awards as determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee. The 2021 Equity Plan initially had a total of 17,525,000 shares of common stock reserved.

Equity [Abstract]
Equity	Note 11. Equity Common and Preferred Stock On June 11, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors approved and made effective a 1,300,000-for-one stock split of the Company’s common stock and filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which authorized a total of 1,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $ 0.001 par value per share and 250,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $ 0.001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”). The par value per share of common stock remained unchanged at $ 0.001 per share. Authorized shares were increased from 10,000 shares to 1,000,000,000 shares. The condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes give retroactive effect to the stock split for all periods presented. After giving retroactive effect to the stock split, as of December 31, 2020, 130,000,000 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding. In connection with the IPO, Fastball Holdco, L.P., the Company’s parent, was dissolved and all outstanding Class A LP Units, Class B LP Units, and Class C LP Units of Fastball Holdco, L.P. were exchanged for 130,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. As of September 30, 2022 , no preferred stock had been issued. Stock Repurchase Program On August 2, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $ 50.0 million of the Company’s common stock over the 12-month period ending August 2, 2023 (the “Repurchase Program”). Stock repurchases may be effected through open market repurchases at prevailing market prices, including through the use of block trades and trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, privately-negotiated transactions, through other transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws, or a combination of these methods on such terms and in such amounts as the Company deems appropriate and will be funded from available capital. The Company is not obligated to repurchase any specific number of shares, and the timing, manner, value, and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the Company’s stock price and liquidity requirements, other business considerations and general market and economic conditions. No shares will be purchased from SLP Fastball Aggregator, L.P. and its affiliates. The Company may discontinue or modify purchases without notice at any time. A summary of the stock repurchase activity under the Repurchase Program, is summarized as follows (in thousands, except share and per share amounts): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 2022 Shares repurchased 155,697 155,697 Average price per share $ 14.42 $ 14.42 Costs recorded to accumulated earnings (deficit) Total repurchase costs $ 2,245 $ 2,245 Additional associated costs 3 3 Total costs recorded to accumulated earnings (deficit) $ 2,248 $ 2,248 As of September 30, 2022, the remaining authorized value of shares available to be repurchased under this program was approximately $ 47.8 million . The purchase price for the shares of our stock repurchased is reflected as a reduction to accumulated earnings (deficit).

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies Except for certain changes to our lease agreements discussed in Note 13, there have been no material changes to the Company’s contractual obligations as compared to December 31, 2021. Litigation — The Company is involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business. At times, the Company, given the nature of its background screening business, could become subject to lawsuits, or potential class action lawsuits, in multiple jurisdictions, related to claims brought primarily by consumers or individuals who were the subject of its screening services. For all pending matters, the Company believes it has meritorious defenses and intends to defend vigorously or otherwise seek indemnification from other parties as appropriate. However, the Company has recorded a liability of $ 4.0 million and $ 7.9 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, for matters that it believes a loss is both probable and estimable. This is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. In February 2022, the Company settled and paid $ 5.5 million related to a settlement agreement the parties had agreed upon in April 2020 and was approved by the court in December 2021. In March 2022, the Company received a recovery of $ 2.2 million , which represented the portion of the legal settlement and legal fees incurred by the Company which were recovered from the Company’s insurers related to this case. The Company will continue to evaluate information as it becomes known and will record an estimate for losses at the time when it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable.

Leases

Leases [Abstract]
Leases	Note 13. Leases Effective January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASC 842, which requires recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet, based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments for existing operating leases. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 842 on January 1, 2022 using a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption in line with the new transition method allowed under ASU 2018-11. ASC 842 provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients” which permits the Company not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The Company did not elect the use-of-hindsight and elected the practical expedient pertaining to land easements. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting for leases. The Company elected the short-term lease exemption for all leases that qualify, meaning the Company will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for leases with terms shorter than twelve months. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for a majority of its asset classes, including real estate and most equipment. The Company measures the ROU assets and liabilities based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Minimum lease payments include the fixed lease and non-lease components of the agreement, as well as any variable rent payments that depend on an index, initially measured using the index at the lease commencement date. The ROU assets are adjusted for any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received, in addition to payments made on or before the commencement date of the lease. The Company recognizes lease expense for leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As the implicit rate is not readily determinable for most of the Company’s lease agreements, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate to determine the initial present value of lease payments. The Company determines if a contract is or contains a lease at inception. The Company has operating and finance leases for office space, data centers, and equipment. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company enters into lease contracts ranging from 1 to 9 years with a majority of the Company’s lease terms ranging from 3 to 5 years. Some leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from 1 to 5 years or more. The exercise of these lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term. Certain of our leases include rental payments that will adjust periodically for inflation or certain adjustments based on step increases. An insignificant number of our leases contain residual value guarantees and none of our agreements contain material restrictive covenants. Variable rent expenses consist primarily of maintenance, property taxes, and charges based on usage. The components of lease costs are as follows (in thousands): Three Months Nine Months Operating lease costs Fixed $ 1,814 $ 5,401 Short-term 63 176 Variable 7 21 Sub-leases ( 22 ) ( 34 ) Total operating lease costs $ 1,863 $ 5,564 Finance lease costs Amortization of leased assets $ 181 $ 581 Interest on lease liabilities 5 26 Total finance lease costs $ 187 $ 607 Total lease cost $ 2,049 $ 6,171 Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases is as follows (in thousands): Classification September 30, 2022 Assets Operating leases Right of use operating lease assets Other assets $ 14,058 Finance leases Property and equipment, gross Property and equipment, net 5,095 Accumulated depreciation Property and equipment, net ( 4,885 ) Property and equipment, net Property and equipment, net 210 Total lease assets $ 14,268 Liabilities Operating leases Other current Current portion of operating lease liability $ 5,500 Non-current Operating lease liability, less current portion 9,947 Total operating liabilities 15,447 Finance leases Other current Accrued liabilities 308 Non-current Other liabilities 7 Total finance liabilities 315 Total lease liabilities $ 15,762 Maturities of lease liabilities are as follows (in thousands): Years Ending December 31, Finance Leases Operating Leases Total 2022 (excluding the nine months ended September 30, 2022) $ 214 $ 1,895 $ 2,109 2023 106 6,041 6,147 2024 — 5,264 5,264 2025 — 2,032 2,032 2026 — 1,523 1,523 Thereafter — 383 383 Total minimum lease payments $ 320 $ 17,138 $ 17,458 Less: Imputed interest ( 5 ) ( 1,270 ) Present value of minimum lease payments $ 315 $ 15,868 For additional information regarding the Company’s Commitments and Contingencies as of December 31, 2021 as disclosed for capital and operating leases, see Note 12 in its 2021 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K.

Net Income Per Share	Note 15. Net Income Per Share Basic weighted-average shares outstanding excludes nonvested restricted stock. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding is similar to basic weighted-average shares outstanding, except that the weighted-average number of shares is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common share had been issued, including the dilutive impact of nonvested restricted stock. Basic and diluted net income per share was calculated as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,  2022 2021 2022 2021 Basic net income per share $ 0.11 $ 0.11 $ 0.29 $ 0.00 Diluted net income per share $ 0.11 $ 0.11 $ 0.29 $ 0.00 Numerator:       Net income (in thousands) $ 17,209 $ 16,285 $ 44,458 $ 666 Denominator:       Weighted average number of shares outstanding - basic 150,930,340  149,943,998 150,740,518  137,232,289 Add stock options to purchase shares and restricted stock units 1,426,967 2,456,421 1,634,694 938,199 Weighted average number of shares outstanding - diluted 152,357,307 152,400,419 152,375,212 138,170,488 For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, 2,918,315 and 2,614,866 stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share, respectively, because their effects were anti-dilutive.

Reportable Segments

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Reportable Segments	Note 16. Reportable Segments During the first quarter of 2022, the Company made organizational changes and modified additional information provided to its CODM to better align with how its CODM assesses performance and allocates resources. As a result, we have two reportable segments, Americas and International. Our CODM uses the profit measure of Adjusted EBITDA, on both a consolidated and a segment basis, to allocate resources and assess performance of our businesses. We use Adjusted EBITDA as our profit measure because it eliminates the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of operating performance, which is useful to compare operating results between periods. Our board of directors and executive management team also use Adjusted EBITDA as a compensation measure for both segment and corporate management under our incentive compensation plans. Adjusted EBITDA is also a measure frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies similar to ours. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, and as further adjusted for loss on extinguishment of debt, share-based compensation, transaction and acquisition-related charges, integration and restructuring charges, and other non-cash charges. We exclude the impact of share-based compensation because it is a non-cash expense and we believe that excluding this item provides meaningful supplemental information regarding performance and ongoing cash generation potential. We exclude loss on extinguishment of debt, transaction and acquisition related charges, integration and restructuring charges, and other charges because such expenses are episodic in nature and have no direct correlation to the cost of operating our business on an ongoing basis. The segment financial information below aligns with how we report information to our CODM to assess operating performance and how the Company manages the business. Corporate costs are generally allocated to the segments based upon estimated revenues levels and other assumptions that management considers reasonable. The CODM does not review the Company’s assets by segment; therefore, such information is not presented. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as described in Note 2, “Significant Accounting and Reporting Policies” and Note 9, “Revenues.” The following is a description of our two reportable segments: Americas. This segment performs a variety of background check and compliance services across all phases of the workforce lifecycle from pre-onboarding services to post-onboarding and ongoing monitoring services, covering employees, contractors, contingent and extended workers, drivers, tenants, and volunteers. We generally classify our service offerings into three categories: pre-onboarding, post-onboarding, and adjacent products. We deliver our solutions across multiple vertical industries in the United States, Canada, and Latin America markets. International. The International segment provides services similar to our Americas segment in regions outside of the Americas. We primarily deliver our solutions across multiple vertical industries in the Europe, India, and Asia Pacific markets. A reconciliation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA to net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 is as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Adjusted EBITDA Americas $ 57,205 $ 53,223 $ 156,978 $ 136,278 International 6,983 10,721 21,644 20,578 Total $ 64,188 $ 63,944 $ 178,622 $ 156,856 Adjustments to reconcile to net income: Interest expense, net 1,740 4,706 4,002 21,875 Provision for income taxes 6,709 3,397 17,076 2,025 Depreciation and amortization 34,744 35,812 103,185 106,493 Loss on extinguishment of debt — — — 13,938 Share-based compensation 2,022 1,343 5,824 4,569 Transaction and acquisition-related charges (a) 1,908 2,144 4,585 6,510 Integration, restructuring, and other charges (b) ( 144 ) 257 ( 508 ) 780 Net income $ 17,209 $ 16,285 $ 44,458 $ 666 (a) Represents charges incurred related to acquisitions and similar transactions, primarily consisting of change in control-related costs, professional service fees, and other third-party costs. Additionally includes incremental professional service fees incurred related to the initial public offering and subsequent one-time compliance efforts. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 includes a transaction bonus expense related to one of the Company’s 2021 acquisitions. (b) Represents charges from organizational restructuring and integration activities, non-cash, and other charges primarily related to legal exposures inherited from legacy acquisitions, foreign currency (gains) losses, and (gains) losses on the sale of assets. Geographic Information The Company bases revenues by geographic region in which the revenues and invoicing are recorded. Other than the United States, no single country accounted for 10 % or more of our total revenues during these periods. The following summarizes revenues by geographical region for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Revenues Americas $ 176,091 $ 158,972 $ 506,770 $ 421,795 International 31,628 35,595 96,413 82,237 Eliminations ( 1,733 ) ( 1,700 ) ( 5,755 ) ( 4,269 ) Total revenues $ 205,986 $ 192,867 $ 597,428 $ 499,763 The following table sets forth net long-lived assets by geographic area as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (in thousands): September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Long-lived assets, net United States, country of domicile $ 1,161,230 $ 1,213,093 All other countries 183,509 199,459 Total long-lived assets, net $ 1,344,739 $ 1,412,552

Summary of Significant Accoun_2

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2022
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation —The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company includes the results of operations of acquired companies prospectively from the date of acquisition. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, such financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to summarize fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The interim results reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements should not be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for future interim periods or the full year. For a more comprehensive understanding of the Company and its condensed consolidated financial statements, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company has historically experienced seasonality with respect to certain customer industries as a result of fluctuations in hiring volumes and other economic activities. Generally, the Company’s highest revenues have historically occurred between October and November of each year, driven by many customers’ pre-holiday season hiring initiatives.
Segments	Segments — Operating segments are businesses for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company made organizational changes and modified information provided to its CODM to better align with how its CODM assesses performance and allocates resources. As a result, the Company now has two reportable segments, Americas and International: • Americas provides technology solutions for screening, verifications, safety, and compliance in the United States, Canada, and Latin America markets; and • International provides technology solutions for screening, verifications, safety, and compliance outside of the Americas. Accordingly, prior period results have been recast to conform to the current presentation of segments. These changes do not impact the Company’s consolidated results. The Company’s segment disclosure is intended to provide the users of its consolidated financial statements with a view of the business that is consistent with management of the Company. Details of segment results are discussed in Note 16, “Reportable Segments.”
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates — The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates, judgments, and assumptions, include, but are not limited to, the determination of the fair value and useful lives of assets acquired and liabilities assumed through business combinations, the impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill impairment, collectability of receivables, revenue recognition, capitalized software, assumptions used for purposes of determining share-based compensation and income tax liabilities and assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Fair Value of Financial Instruments — Certain financial assets and liabilities are reported at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurement . ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The valuation techniques required by ASC 820 are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect internal market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy: Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable. Level 3 — Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable (supported by little or no market activities). These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that reflect the Company’s best estimate of fair value from a market participant. The fair value of an asset is considered to be the price at which the asset could be sold in an orderly transaction between unrelated knowledgeable and willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, rather than the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured using a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, receivables, short-term debt, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments (Level 1). The fair values and carrying values of the Company’s long-term debt are disclosed in Note 6. The following table presents information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and their assigned levels within the valuation hierarchy as of September 30, 2022 (in thousands): Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets Interest rate swaps $ — $ 11,754 $ — Other intangible assets are subject to nonrecurring fair value measurement as the result of business acquisitions. The fair values of these assets were estimated using the present value of expected future cash flows through unobservable inputs (Level 3).
Business Combinations	Business Combinations — The Company records business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations . Under the acquisition method of accounting, identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their acquisition-date fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value is recorded as goodwill. Changes in the estimated fair values of net assets recorded for acquisitions prior to the finalization of more detailed analysis, but not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, will adjust the amount of the purchase price allocable to goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are reflected in the period in which they occur. In valuing the trade names, customer lists, and software developed for internal use, the Company utilizes variations of the income approach, which relies on historical financial and qualitative information, as well as assumptions and estimates for projected financial information. The Company considers the income approach the most appropriate valuation technique because the inherent value of these assets is their ability to generate current and future income. Projected financial information is subject to risk if estimates are incorrect. The most significant estimate relates to projected revenues and profitability. If the projected revenues and profitability used in the valuation calculations are not met, then the asset could be impaired.
Goodwill Trade Name and Customer Lists	Goodwill, Trade Name, and Customer Lists — The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually as of December 31 or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit or indefinite-lived intangible asset below its carrying value. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level using a fair value approach. At December 31, 2021, the Company had two reporting units comprised of the Americas and International. When testing goodwill for impairment, the Company may first perform an optional qualitative assessment. If the Company determines it is not more likely than not the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, then no further analysis is necessary. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the quantitative impairment test will be performed. Under the quantitative impairment test, if the carrying amount of the Company’s reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company will recognize an impairment loss in an amount equal to that excess but limited to the total amount of goodwill. No impairment charges have been required. The Company’s trade name is amortized on an accelerated basis over its expected useful life of twenty years . The Company recorded $ 1.9 million and $ 2.0 million of amortization expense related to the trade name for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Amortization expense related to the trade name was $ 5.7 million and $ 6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Customer lists are amortized on an accelerated basis based upon their estimated useful life of thirteen to fourteen years . The Company recorded $ 15.1 million and $ 16.4 million of amortization expense related to customer lists for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Amortization expense related to customer lists was $ 45.6 million and $ 49.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company regularly evaluates the amortization period assigned to each intangible asset to determine whether there have been any events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives. In December 2021 , and since that time, the Company determined that there have been no triggering events that would require impairment of trade names or customer lists.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition — Revenues are recognized when control of the Company’s services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which was adopted as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method, revenues are recognized based on the following steps: a) Identify the contract with a customer b) Identify the performance obligations in the contract c) Determine the transaction price d) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract e) Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation A substantial majority of the Company’s revenues are derived from pre-onboarding and related services to our customers on a transactional basis, in which an individual background screening package or selection of services is ordered by a customer related to a single individual. Substantially all of the Company’s customers are employers, staffing companies, and other businesses or organizations. The Company satisfies its performance obligations and recognizes revenues for services rendered as the orders are completed and the completed reports are transmitted, or otherwise made available. The Company’s remaining services, substantially consisting of tax consulting, fleet management, and driver qualification services, are delivered over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services delivered. To measure the Company’s performance over time, the output method is utilized to measure the value to the customer based on the transfer to date of the services promised, with no rights of return once consumed. In these cases, revenues on transactional contracts with a defined price but an undefined quantity are recognized utilizing the right to invoice expedient resulting in revenues being recognized when the service is provided and becomes billable. Additionally, under this practical expedient, the Company is not required to estimate the transaction price. The Company considers negotiated and anticipated incentives and estimated adjustments, including historical collections experience, when recording revenues. The Company’s contracts with customers generally include standard commercial payment terms acceptable in each region, and do not include any financing components. The Company does not have any significant obligations for refunds, warranties, or similar obligations. The Company records revenues net of sales taxes. Due to the Company’s contract terms and the nature of the background screening industry, the Company determined its contract terms for ASC 606 purposes are less than one year. As a result, the Company uses the practical expedient which allows it to expense incremental costs of obtaining a contract, primarily consisting of sales commissions, as incurred. The Company records third-party pass-through fees incurred as part of screening related services on a gross revenue basis, with the related expense recorded as a cost of services expense, as the Company has control over the transaction and is therefore considered to be acting as a principal. The Company records motor vehicle registration and other tax payments paid on behalf of the Company’s fleet management customers on a net revenue basis as the Company does not have control over the transaction and therefore, is considered to be acting as an agent of the customer. Amounts received from fleet management customers are recorded in cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as the funds are not legally restricted. Contract balances are generated when the revenues recognized in a given period varies from billing. A contract asset is created when the Company performs a service for a customer and recognizes more revenues than what has been billed. Contract assets are included in accounts receivable in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. A contract liability is created when the Company transfers a good or service to a customer and recognizes less than what has been billed. The Company recognizes these contract liabilities as deferred revenues when the Company has an obligation to perform services for a customer in the future and has already received consideration from the customer. Contract liabilities are included in deferred revenues in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Foreign Currency	Foreign Currency — The functional currency of all of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is the applicable local currency. The translation of the applicable foreign currencies into U.S. dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenues and expense accounts using average exchange rates prevailing during the fiscal year. Adjustments resulting from the translation of foreign currency financial statements are accumulated net of tax in a separate component of equity. Currency translation (loss) income included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was approximately $( 10.3 ) million and $( 3.1 ) million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Currency translation (loss) income included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was approximately $( 23.1 ) million and $( 1.6 ) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), except for those relating to intercompany transactions of a long-term investment nature, which are captured in a separate component of equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Currency transaction income included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) was approximately $ 1.1 million and $( 0.2 ) million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Currency transaction income included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) was approximately $ 2.4 million and $ 0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 , respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements — The Company qualifies as an emerging growth company under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (“JOBS”) Act. The JOBS Act permits the Company an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards affecting public companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period and adopt certain new accounting standards on the private company timeline, which means that the Company’s financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of public companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards on a non-delayed basis. There were no accounting pronouncements issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 that are expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements — In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases , and subsequently issued additional ASUs amending this ASU (collectively ASC 842, Leases ). ASC 842 was issued to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of right of use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Most prominent among the changes in the standard is the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Under the standard, disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 842 on January 1, 2022 using a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption in line with the new transition method allowed under ASU 2018-11. ASC 842 provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients” which permits the Company not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The Company did not elect the use-of-hindsight and elected the practical expedient pertaining to land easements. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting for leases. The Company elected the short-term lease exemption for all leases that qualify, meaning the Company will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for leases with terms shorter than twelve months. The Company also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for a majority of its asset classes, including real estate and most equipment. The adoption of ASC 842 had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets but did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of operations or cash flow. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets of $ 12.7 million and lease liabilities for operating leases of $ 15.0 million based on the present value of the future minimum rental payments for existing operating leases. The difference in the balances is due to deferred rent, tenant incentive allowances, and prepaid amounts taken into account for adoption. Our accounting for finance leases, described in Note 13, remained unchanged. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes . This ASU removes specific exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. Among other things it eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period: exception to the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation; exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments; and exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. This amendment also improves financial statement preparers’ application of income tax-related guidance and simplifies GAAP for: franchise taxes that are partially based on income; transactions with a government that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill; separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax; and enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. Adoption of this standard on January 1, 2022 did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
