Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates | | Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by our management and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to fairly state the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2020 has been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) but omit certain information and footnote disclosure necessary to present the statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Under the Intercompany Master Services Agreement, Cyxtera Management, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Cyxtera (the “Management Company”), agreed to provide certain services to other members of the Company Group from time to time, including financial, accounting, administrative, facilities and other services. For the year ended December 31, 2019 and prior, Cyxtera allocated a portion of the Management Company’s general and administrative, depreciation and amortization, interest and certain other expenses to Appgate using the direct allocation method based on direct usage when identifiable or the most relevant allocation method to the services being provided. These allocation methods included the following methods applied consistently: (i) sales bookings; (ii) revenue; (iii) number of customers; (iv) number of employees; (v) number of vendor payments; and (vi) number of customer invoices. In 2019, operating expenses allocated to Appgate in such manner were as follows (in thousands): 2019 General and administrative $ 19,698 Depreciation and amortization 1,411 Interest expense, net 182 Other expenses, net 22 Total $ 21,313 In the opinion of management, the assumptions and method of allocating these costs were reasonable.

Principles of Consolidation | | | | Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Appgate and the accounts of entities in which Appgate has a controlling financial interest, the usual condition of which is ownership of a majority voting interest. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of Estimates | | | | Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the determination of revenue recognition, deferred revenue, deferred contract acquisition costs, valuation of goodwill and acquired intangible assets, the period of benefit generated from our deferred contract acquisition costs, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of equity awards, useful lives of property and equipment, useful lives of acquired intangible assets, valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, fair value of our promissory notes, and the discount rate used for operating leases. Management determines these estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates, and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements. |

Financial Instruments and Concentrations of Credit Risk | | | | Financial Instruments and Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Our cash and cash equivalents and restricted bank deposits are invested with major banks in the United States, Latin America, Europe and Asia. Generally, these investments may be redeemed upon demand, and we believe that the financial institutions that hold our cash deposits are financially sound and, accordingly, subject us to minimal credit risk. Our trade receivables are mainly derived from sales to a diverse set of customers located in the following main geographical regions: United States and Canada (“US&C”); Latin America (“LATAM”); Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and Asia Pacific (“APAC”). Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivables is mitigated by credit limits, ongoing credit evaluation and account monitoring procedures. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, none of our customers comprised more than 10% of our accounts receivable, net. |
Segment Information | | | | Segment Information We operate as one reportable and operating segment. Our chief operating decision maker is our chief executive officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance and allocating resources. |
Revenue Recognition | | | | Revenue Recognition We primarily sell our software through on -premise -based -based to assist our customers with integration, optimization, training and ongoing advanced technical support. We also generate revenue from threat advisory services, including penetration testing, application assessments, vulnerability analysis, reverse engineering, architecture review and source code review. Under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (i) identification of the contract with a customer; We enter into contracts with customers through order forms, which in some cases are governed by master sales agreements. We determine that we have a contract with a customer when the order form has been approved by us, each party’s rights regarding the products or services to be transferred can be identified, the payment terms for the services can be identified, we have determined that the customer has the ability and intent to pay and the contract has commercial substance. We apply judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intent to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, credit, reputation and financial or other information pertaining to the customer. At contract inception, we evaluate whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single contract and whether the combined or single contract includes more than one performance obligation. We also evaluate termination rights at contract inception to determine the impact, if any, on the contractual term. (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations; Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the products and services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the products or services either on their own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from us, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the products and services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. Our term -based Services -related -installation We have concluded that our contracts with customers do not contain warranties that give rise to a separate performance obligation. (iii) measurement of the transaction price; The transaction price is the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring our products and services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The consideration promised in our contracts with customers may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. Revenues from usage -based -premise -based (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. For contracts that contain multiple distinct performance obligations, we allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price (“SSP”). We determine the transaction price with reference to the SSP of the various performance obligations inherent within a contract. The SSP is determined based on the prices at which we separately sell these products, assuming the majority of these fall within a pricing range. In instances where SSP is not directly observable, such as when we do not sell the software license separately, we derive the SSP utilizing market conditions and other factors, including customer type, market conditions and pricing objectives, historical sales data, and negotiated discounts from price lists, if any, that can require significant judgement. (v) recognition of revenue when the Company satisfies each performance obligation; Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised product or service to the customer. Our term -based -ready Professional services and other revenue consist primarily of fees from professional services provided to our customers and partners to configure and optimize the use of our solutions, as well as training services related to the configuration and operation of our solutions. Our professional services are priced on a time and materials basis, which is generally invoiced monthly and for which revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Revenue from our training services and sponsorship fees is recognized on the date the services are complete. We generate sales directly through our sales team and through our channel partners. Sales to channel partners are made at a discount, and revenues are recorded at this discounted price once all of the revenue recognition criteria above are met. To the extent that we offer rebates, incentives or joint marketing funds to such channel partners, recorded revenues are reduced by those amounts. Channel partners generally receive an order from an end -customer -customers Any sales taxes collected from customers and remitted directly to government authorities are excluded from revenue and cost of sales. |
Incremental Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer | | | | Incremental Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer We capitalize incremental costs associated with obtaining customer contracts, specifically certain commission payments. We pay commissions based on contract value upon signing a new arrangement with a customer and upon renewal and upgrades of existing contracts with customers only if the renewal and upgrades result in an incremental increase in contract value. We also incur commission expense on an ongoing basis based upon revenue recognized. In these cases, no incremental costs are deferred, as the commissions are earned and expensed in the same period for which the associated revenue is recognized. Based on the nature of our technology and services, and the rate at which we continually enhance and update our technology, the expected life of the customer arrangement is determined to be approximately five years. Commissions for new arrangements and incremental renewals are both amortized over approximately five years. Amortization is primarily included in sales and marketing expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The current portion of deferred commission and incentive payments is included in deferred contract acquisitions costs, current, and the long -term |

Restricted Cash | | | | Restricted Cash Restricted cash consists of amounts invested in guaranteed investment certificates, which are required as collateral for the Company’s letters of credit and credit cards issued to several employees. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | | | | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal market, or if none exists, the most advantageous market, for the specific asset or liability at the measurement date (the exit price). The fair value is based on assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are assigned a level within the fair value hierarchy, depending on the source of the inputs to the calculation, as follows: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 |
Property and Equipment, Net | | | | Property and Equipment, Net Property and equipment, net is stated at historical cost net of accumulated depreciation. Property and equipment, excluding leasehold improvements, are depreciated using the straight -line -line Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and significant improvements and betterments that substantially enhance the life of an asset are capitalized. |
Software Development Costs | | | | Software Development Costs Research and development costs for software to be sold, leased or marketed are expensed as incurred up to the point of technological feasibility for the related software product. We have not capitalized development costs for software to be sold, leased or marketed to date, as the software development process is essentially completed concurrently with the establishment of technological feasibility. As such, these costs are expensed as incurred and recognized in research and development costs in the consolidated statements of operations. Software developed for internal use, with no substantive plans to market such software at the time of development, are capitalized and included in property and equipment, net in the consolidated balance sheets. Costs incurred during the preliminary planning and evaluation and post implementation stages of the project are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred during the application development stage of the project are capitalized. |
Business Combinations | | | | Business Combinations We account for our business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires, among other things, allocation of the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. When determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we make estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Our estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ materially from estimates. During the measurement period, not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with a corresponding offset to goodwill if new information is obtained related to facts and circumstances that existed on the acquisition date. After the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. Acquisition costs, such as legal and consulting fees, are expensed as incurred. |
Goodwill and Other Long-Lived Assets, including Acquired Intangible Assets | | | | Goodwill and Other Long-Lived Assets, including Acquired Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of purchase consideration in a business combination over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill amounts are not amortized, but rather tested for impairment at least annually or more often if circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Upon the Cyxtera Spin -Off -out Acquired intangible assets consist of identifiable intangible assets, including developed technology, trademarks and tradenames, and customer relationships, resulting from business combinations. Acquired finite -lived -line Long -lived -lived |
Assets Held for Sale | | | | Assets Held for Sale We consider assets to be held for sale when management, with appropriate authority, approves and commits to a formal plan to actively market the assets for sale at a price reasonable in relation to their estimated fair value, the assets are available for immediate sale in their present condition, an active program to locate a buyer has been initiated, the sale of the assets is probable and expected to be completed within one year and it is unlikely that significant changes will be made to the plan. Upon designation as held for sale, we record the assets at the lower of their carrying value or their estimated fair value, reduced for the cost to dispose the assets, and cease to record depreciation and amortization expenses on the assets. Assets and liabilities of a discontinued operation are reclassified for all comparative periods presented in the consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 3 — Discontinued Operations |
Discontinued Operations | | | | Discontinued Operations We report financial results for discontinued operations separately from continuing operations to distinguish the financial impact of disposal transactions from ongoing operations. Discontinued operations reporting occurs only when the disposal of a component or a group of components of the Company (i) meets the held -for-sale — Discontinued Operations |
Operating and Finance Leases | | | | Operating and Finance Leases We enter into operating lease arrangements for real estate assets related to office space and colocation assets related to space and racks at data center facilities. Operating leases related balances are included in “operating lease right -of-use -of-use We determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception based on whether there is an identified asset and whether the Company controls the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use.

Advertising Expenses | | | | Advertising Expenses Advertising expenses are charged to sales and marketing expense in the consolidated statements of operations as incurred. We recognized advertising expense of $0.3 million and $0.4 million in 2020 and 2019, respectively. |
Legal Contingencies | | | | Legal Contingencies We may be subject to legal proceedings and litigation arising from time to time. We record a liability when we believe that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. We periodically evaluate developments in our legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that we accrue, if any, and adjust, as appropriate. Until the final resolution of any such matter for which we may be required to record a liability, there may be a loss exposure in excess of the liability recorded and such amount could be significant. We expense legal fees as incurred. |
Income Taxes | | | | Income Taxes Through December 31, 2019, operations of the Company were included in the consolidated U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income tax returns, filed by Cyxtera, where applicable. Income tax expense and other income tax related information contained in the consolidated financial statements is presented on a separate return basis as if we filed our own tax returns for 2019. Our income taxes, as presented in the consolidated financial statements, may not be indicative of the income taxes we will incur in the future. In jurisdictions in which we were included in Cyxtera’s tax returns, any income taxes payable/receivable resulting from the related income tax provisions have been reflected in the balance sheets of each separate entity’s provision. See Note 2 — Transactions with Former Parent — Cyxtera. We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized by applying the enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. We recognize tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if we believe that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) was signed into law. The Tax Act revised U.S. corporate income tax law by, among other things, reducing the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate to 21 percent, imposed a minimum tax on foreign earnings related to intangible assets called global intangible low -taxed -time The effects of the Tax Act on the measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities and other aspects of our income tax provision are described in greater detail in Note 14 — Income Taxes |
