Description of Business

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Description of Business	1. Description of Business Verra Mobility Corporation (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “ Company ” or “ Verra Mobility ”), formerly known as Gores Holdings II, Inc. (“ Gores ”), was originally incorporated in Delaware on August 15, 2016, as a special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or other similar business combination with one or more target businesses. On January 19, 2017, the Company consummated its initial public offering, following which its shares began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“ Nasdaq ”). On June 21, 2018, Gores entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, the “ Merger Agreement ”) with Greenlight Holding II Corporation, PE Greenlight Holdings, LLC (the “ Platinum Stockholder ”), AM Merger Sub I, Inc., a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Gores and AM Merger Sub II, LLC, a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Gores. On October 17, 2018, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “ Business Combination ”) were consummated. In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, Gores changed its name to Verra Mobility Corporation. As a result of the Business Combination, Verra Mobility Corporation became the owner, directly or indirectly, of all of the equity interests of Verra Mobility Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries. Verra Mobility offers integrated technology solutions and services to its customers who are located throughout the world, primarily within the United States, Australia, Canada and Europe. The Company is organized into three operating segments: Commercial Services, Government Solutions and Parking Solutions (see Not e 15. Segment Reporting ). The Commercial Services segment offers toll and violation management solutions for the commercial fleet and rental car industries by partnering with the leading fleet management and rental car companies in North America. Electronic toll payment services enable fleet drivers and rental car customers to use high-speed cashless toll lanes or all-electronic cashless toll roads. The service helps commercial fleets reduce toll management costs, while it provides rental car companies with a revenue-generating, value-added service for their customers. Electronic violation processing services reduce the cost and risk associated with vehicle-issued violations, such as toll, parking or camera-enforced tickets. Title and registration services offer title and registration processing for individuals, rental car companies and fleet management companies. In Europe, the Company provides violations processing through Euro Parking Collection plc and consumer tolling services through Pagatelia S.L. The Government Solutions segment offers photo enforcement solutions and services to its customers. Through its acquisition of Redflex Holdings Limited (“ Redflex ”) in June 2021, the Company expanded its current footprint in the United States and gained access to international markets. The Government Solutions segment provides complete, end-to-end speed, red-light, school bus stop arm and bus lane enforcement solutions within the United States and Canada. These programs are designed to reduce traffic violations and resulting collisions, injuries, and fatalities. The Company implements and administers traffic safety programs for municipalities, counties, school districts and law enforcement agencies of all sizes. The international operations acquired through Redflex primarily involve the sale of traffic enforcement products and related maintenance services. The Parking Solutions segment offers an integrated suite of parking software and hardware solutions to its customers, which include universities, municipalities, parking operators, healthcare facilities and transportation hubs. The Company added this new operating segment as a result of the acquisition of T2 Systems Parent Corporation (“ T2 Systems ”) on December 7, 2021, which allowed the Company to diversify its operations into the parking solutions space (see Note 3. Acquisitions ). The Parking Solutions segment develops specialized hardware and parking management software that provides a platform for the issuance of parking permits, enforcement, gateless vehicle counting, event parking and citation services. T2 Systems also produces and markets its proprietary software as a service to its customers throughout the United States and Canada.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies	2. Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“ GAAP ”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation. Use of Estimates The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates and assumptions include those related to the fair values assigned to net assets acquired (including identifiable intangibles) in business combinations, revenue recognition, inventory valuation, allowance for credit losses, fair value of the private placement warrant liabilities, valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, impairment assessments of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, asset retirement obligations, contingent consideration and the recognition and measurement of loss contingencies. Management believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances; however, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Concentration of Credit Risk Significant customers are those which represent more than 10 % of the Company’s total revenue or accounts receivable, net. Revenue from the single Government Solutions customer exceeding 10 % of total revenue is presented below: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 City of New York Department of Transportation 20.5 % 25.5 % 19.5 % 25.6 % The City of New York Department of Transportation (“ NYCDOT ”) represented 29 % and 39 % of total accounts receivable, net as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. There is no material reserve related to NYCDOT open receivables as amounts are deemed collectible based on current conditions and exp ectations. No other Government Solutions customer exceeded 10% of total accounts receivable, net as of any period presented. Significant customer revenues generated through the Company’s Commercial Services partners as a percent of total revenue are presented below: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Hertz Corporation 12.6 % 12.9 % 11.8 % 13.2 % Avis Budget Group, Inc. 13.9 % 13.5 % 12.9 % 12.8 % Enterprise Holdings, Inc. 10.3 % 10.9 % 9.7 % 12.4 % No Commercial Services customer exceeded 10% of total accounts receivable, net as of any period presented. There were no significant customer concentrations that exceeded 10% of total revenue or accounts receivables, net for the Parking Solutions segment. Allowance for Credit Losses The Company reviews historical credit losses and customer payment trends on receivables and develops loss rate estimates as of the balance sheet date, which includes adjustments for current and future expectations using probability-weighted assumptions about potential outcomes. Receivables are written off against the allowance for credit losses when it is probable that amounts will not be collected based on the terms of the customer contracts, and subsequent recoveries reverse the previous write-off and apply to the receivable in the period recovered. No interest or late fees are charged on delinquent accounts. The Company evaluates the adequacy of its allowance for expected credit losses by comparing its actual write-offs to its previously recorded estimates and adjusts appropriately. The Company identified portfolio segments based on the type of business, industry in which the customer operates and historical credit loss patterns. The following presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 , respectively: ($ in thousands) Commercial Services (1) Commercial Government Solutions Parking Solutions Total Balance at January 1, 2022 $ 5,397 $ 3,092 $ 3,649 $ — $ 12,138 Credit loss expense 8,867 835 694 496 10,892 Write-offs, net of recoveries ( 2,810 ) ( 2,089 ) ( 26 ) ( 430 ) ( 5,355 ) Balance at September 30, 2022 $ 11,454 $ 1,838 $ 4,317 $ 66 $ 17,675 ($ in thousands) Commercial Services (1) Commercial Government Solutions Total Balance at January 1, 2021 $ 3,210 $ 4,277 $ 3,984 $ 11,471 Credit loss expense 7,944 ( 820 ) ( 408 ) 6,716 Write-offs, net of recoveries ( 3,446 ) ( 45 ) ( 21 ) ( 3,512 ) Balance at September 30, 2021 $ 7,708 $ 3,412 $ 3,555 $ 14,675 (1) Driver-billed consists of receivables from drivers of rental cars and fleet management companies for which the Company bills on behalf of its customers. Receivables not collected from drivers within a defined number of days are transferred to customers subject to applicable bad debt sharing agreements. The Commercial Services (Driver-billed) portfolio segment’s credit loss estimate as of September 30, 2022 increased compared to the prior year due to increased revenue that impacted the volume of transactions as a result of recovery from COVID-19. The Commercial Services (All other) portfolio segment's credit loss estimate decreased at September 30, 2022 mainly due to a $ 1.7 million write-off for a rental car customer who filed for bankruptcy. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue represents amounts that have been invoiced in advance and are expected to be recognized as revenue in future periods, and it primarily relates to Government Solutions and Parking Solutions customers. The Company had approximately $ 9.8 million and $ 8.9 million of deferred revenue in the Government Solutions segment as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 , respectively. The majority of the remaining performance obligations as of September 30, 2022 are expected to be completed and recognized as revenue in the next 12 months and $ 3.2 million is expected to be recognized between 2023 through 2027. The C ompany had approximatel y $ 25.6 milli on and $ 20.9 million of deferred revenue in the Parking Solutions segment as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The majority of the remaining performance oblig ations as of September 30, 2022 are expected to be completed and recognized as revenue in the next 12 months and $ 0.6 million is expected to be recognized in 2023. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Adopted In May 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ( “FASB” ) issued Accounting Standards Update ( “ASU” ) 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options . This ASU provides guidance for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that is not within the scope of another topic. It specifically addresses the measurement and recognition of the effect of a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option if it remains equity-classified after the modification or exchange. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2022, which did not have an impact on its financial statements and related disclosures, as the Company had no transactions subject to the standard. If the Company were to have modifications or exchanges in the future, such guidance would apply. In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance , to increase transparency in financial reporting by requiring business entities to disclose information about certain types of government assistance they receive. The amendments require annual disclosures regarding the nature of any transactions with a government accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy and the related accounting policy used, the effect of the assistance on the entity’s financial statements, and the significant terms and conditions of the transactions. The Company adopted the ASU as of January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact on its financial statements or related disclosures. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting . The ASU provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. It provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope , which clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The amendments are effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022, to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. Under the terms of the 2021 Term Loan (as defined below) discussed in Note 7. Long-term Debt , in the event there is a benchmark transition away from LIBOR, a benchmark replacement rate has been defined in the 2021 Term Loan agreement along with the mechanism for such a transition to take place. The Company does not anticipate this transition will have a material impact on its financial statements. On June 30, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions . The ASU clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. It also requires entities with investments in equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions to disclose certain qualitative and quantitative information about such securities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, including interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.

The Company paid a purchase price of $ 353.2 million. Transaction costs for T2 Systems wer e $ 3.4 million, which primarily related to professional fees and other expenses related to the acquisition. The allocation of the preliminary purchase consideration is summarized as follows: ($ in thousands) Assets acquired Cash and cash equivalents $ 13,866 Restricted cash 228 Accounts receivable 9,673 Unbilled receivables 2,153 Inventory 7,467 Property and equipment 3,336 Prepaid and other assets 7,477 Trademark 3,200 Customer relationships 164,300 Developed technology 19,300 Total assets acquired 231,000 Liabilities assumed Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 10,379 Deferred revenue 21,253 Deferred tax liability 37,129 Other liabilities 4,228 Total liabilities assumed 72,989 Goodwill 195,226 Total assets acquired and liabilities assumed $ 353,237 Goodwill consists largely of the expected cash flows and future growth anticipated for the Company and was assigned to the Company’s Parking Solutions segment. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The preliminary customer relationships value was based on the multi-period excess earnings methodology utilizing projected cash flows. The significant assumptions used to value customer relationships included, among others, customer upsell and churn rates, forecasted revenue growth rates attributable to existing customers, forecasted EBITDA margins and the discount rate. The preliminary values for the trademark and the developed technology related assets were based on a relief-from-royalty method. The significant assumptions used to value these intangible assets included, among others, forecasted revenue growth rates, royalty rates and the expected obsolescence curve. The trademark, customer relationships and the developed technology related assets were assigned preliminary useful lives of 10.0 years, 10.0 years, and 6.1 years, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is preliminary. The primary areas that remain preliminary relate to the fair values of unbilled receivables, intangible assets acquired, deferred revenue, legal and other contingencies as of the acquisition date, income and non-income based taxes and residual goodwill. The Company expects to finalize the valuation as soon as practicable, but not later than one year from the acquisition date.

The 2021 Term Loan has an aggregate borrowing of $ 650.0 million, maturing on March 26, 2028 , and an accordion feature providing for an additional $ 250.0 million of term loans, subject to satisfaction of certain requirements. In connection with the 2021 Term Loan, the Company had an offering discount cost of $ 3.3 million and $ 0.7 million of deferred financing costs, both of which were capitalized and are amortized over the remaining life of the 2021 Term Loan. In addition, in March 2021, VM Consolidated issued an aggregate principal amount of $ 350 million in Senior Unsecured Notes (the “ Senior Notes ”), due on April 15, 2029 . In connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes, the Company incurred $ 5.7 million in lender and third-party costs, which were capitalized as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the remaining life of the Senior Notes. The net proceeds from both the 2021 Term Loan and the Senior Notes were used in March 2021 to repay in full all outstanding debt which was represented by the First Lien Term Loan Credit Agreement (as amended, the “ 2018 Term Loan ”) with a balance of $ 865.6 million. On December 7, 2021, VM Consolidated entered into an agreement to exercise the accordion feature under the 2021 Term Loan, borrowing $ 250.0 million in incremental term loans (“ Incremental Term Loan ”). The proceeds from the Incremental Term Loan were used, along with cash on hand, to fund the acquisition of T2 Systems, including repayment in full all outstanding debt for T2 Systems. In connection with the Incremental Term Loan, the Company had an offering discount cost of $ 1.3 million and $ 3.8 million of deferred financing costs, both of which were capitalized and are amortized over the remaining life of the 2021 Term Loan. The Incremental Term Loan accrued interest from the date of borrowing until December 31, 2021, at which time, it was combined with the 2021 Term Loan to be a single tranche of term loan borrowings. The total principal outstanding under the 2021 Term Loan, which includes the Incremental Term Loan, was $ 888.4 million at September 30, 2022. The 2021 Term Loan is repayable at 1.0 % per annum of the amount initially borrowed, paid in quarterly installments. It bears interest based, at the Company’s option, on either (1) LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.25 % per annum, or (2) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin of 2.25 % per annum. As of September 30, 2022, the interest rate on the 2021 Term Loan was 6.1 %. In addition, the 2021 Term Loan requires mandatory prepayments equal to the product of the excess cash flows of the Company (as defined in the 2021 Term Loan agreement) and the applicable prepayment percentages (calculated as of the last day of the fiscal year, beginning with the year ending December 31, 2022), as set forth in the following table: Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (As Defined by the 2021 Term Loan Agreement) Applicable > 3.70:1.00 50 % < 3.70:1.00 and > 3.20:1.00 25 % < 3.20:1.00 0 % Interest on the Senior Notes is fixed at 5.50 % per annum and is payable on April 15 and October 15 of each year . On or after April 15, 2024, the Company may redeem all or a portion of the Senior Notes at the redemption prices set forth below in percentages by year, plus accrued and unpaid interest: Year Percentage 2024 102.750 % 2025 101.375 % 2026 and thereafter 100.000 % In addition, the Company may redeem up to 40 % of the Senior Notes before April 15, 2024, with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings. The Company evaluated the March 2021 refinancing transactions on a lender-by-lender basis and accounted for the portion of the transaction that did not meet the accounting criteria for debt extinguishment as a debt modification. Accordingly, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $ 5.3 million on the 2018 Term Loan during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 consisting of a $ 4.0 million write-off of pre-existing deferred financing costs and discounts and $ 1.3 million of lender and third-party costs associated with the issuance of the 2021 Term Loan. PPP Loan During fiscal year 2020, Redflex received a $ 2.9 million loan from the U.S. Small Business Administration (“ SBA ”) as part of the Paycheck Protection Program (“ PPP Loan ”) to offset certain employment and other allowable costs incurred as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. In early 2021, Redflex applied for forgiveness of this loan, and on September 23, 2022, the Company was notified by the SBA that the loan, together with accrued interest, had been fully forgiven under the provisions of the PPP Loan program. Accordingly, the Company recognized a $ 3.0 million gain on extinguishment of debt in the consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Revolver The Company has a Revolving Credit Agreement (the “ Revolver ”) with a commitment of up to $ 75.0 million available for loans and letters of credit. The Revolver matures on December 20, 2026. Borrowing eligibility under the Revolver is subject to a monthly borrowing base calculation based on (i) certain percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory, less (ii) certain reserve items, including outstanding letters of credit and other reserves. The Revolver bears interest on either (1) LIBOR plus an applicable margin, or (2) an alternate base rate, plus an applicable margin. The margin percentage applied to (1) LIBOR is either 1.25 %, 1.50 %, or 1.75 %, or (2) the base rate is either 0.25 %, 0.50 %, or 0.75 %, depending on the Company’s average availability to borrow under the commitment. At December 31, 2021, the Company had $ 25.0 million in outstanding borrowings on the Revolver, which was repaid in full in January 2022 . At September 30, 2022, the availability to borrow was $ 72.1 million, net of $ 0.2 million of outstanding letters of credit. Interest on the unused portion of the Revolver is payable quarterly at 0.375 % and the Company is also required to pay participation and fronting fees at 1.38 % o n $ 0.2 m illion of outstanding letters of credit as of September 30, 2022. All borrowings and other extensions of credits under the 2021 Term Loan, Senior Notes and the Revolver are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions and restrictive covenants including absence of defaults and accuracy in material respects of representations and warranties. Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged as collateral to secure the Company’s indebtedness under the 2021 Term Loan. At September 30, 2022, the Company was compliant with all debt covenants. Interest Expense The Company recorded interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs and discounts, of $ 20.3 million and $ 11.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $ 49.0 million and $ 32.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The weighted average effective interest rates on the Company’s outstanding borrowings were 5.9 % and 4.1 % at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, includes a single definition of fair value to be used for financial reporting purposes, provides a framework for applying this definition and for measuring fair value under GAAP, and establishes a fair value hierarchy that categorizes into three levels the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are summarized as follows: Level 1 – Fair value is based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 – Fair value is determined using quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable. Level 3 – Fair value is determined using one or more significant inputs that are unobservable in active markets at the measurement date, such as a pricing model, discounted cash flow, or similar technique. The carrying amounts reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the immediate to short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The estimated fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was calculated based upon available market information. The carrying value and the estimated fair value are as follows: Level in September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Fair Value Carrying Estimated Carrying Estimated ($ in thousands) Hierarchy Amount Fair Value Amount Fair Value 2021 Term Loan 2 $ 867,587 $ 875,035 $ 871,467 $ 895,125 Senior Notes 2 345,438 308,000 344,918 355,250 Revolver 2 — — 24,435 25,000 The fair value of the private placement warrant liabilities is measured on a recurring basis and is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using significant unobservable inputs, primarily related to estimated volatility, and is therefore classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The key assumptions used were as follows: September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Stock price $ 15.37 $ 15.43 Strike price $ 11.50 $ 11.50 Volatility 41.0 % 48.0 % Remaining life (in years) 1.1 1.8 Risk-free interest rate 4.06 % 0.66 % Expected dividend yield 0.0 % 0.0 % Estimated fair value $ 5.00 $ 5.77 The Company is exposed to valuation risk on these Level 3 financial instruments. The risk of exposure is estimated using a sensitivity analysis of potential changes in the significant unobservable inputs, primarily the volatility input that is the most susceptible to valuation risk. A 5.0% increase to the volatility input at September 30, 2022 would increase the estimated fair value by $ 0.19 per unit. A 5.0% decrease to the volatility input at September 30, 2022 would decrease the estimated fair value by $ 0.18 pe r unit. The following summarizes the changes in fair value of private placement warrant liabilities included in net income for the respective periods: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, ($ in thousands) 2022 2021 2022 2021 Beginning balance $ 35,600 $ 41,000 $ 38,466 $ 30,866 Change in fair value of private placement warrants ( 2,267 ) ( 5,067 ) ( 5,133 ) 5,067 Ending balance $ 33,333 $ 35,933 $ 33,333 $ 35,933 The Company has an equity investment measured at cost of $ 3.2 million and i s only adjusted to fair value if there are identified events that would indicate a need for an upward or downward adjustment or changes in circumstances that may indicate impairment. The estimation of fair value requires the use of significant unobservable inputs, such as voting rights and obligations in the securities held, and is therefore classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. There were no identified events that required a fair value adjustment as of September 30, 2022. The fair value of the contingent consideration payable in connection with the NuPark acquisition was $ 1.5 million at December 13, 2021 acquisition date and was classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The valuation of the contingent consideration was measured using a discounted cash flow model and the significant unobservable inputs used in the measurement relate to forecasts of ann ualized revenue developed by the Company. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company made payments that totaled approximately $ 0.9 million to settle in full the contingent consideration payable to Passport Labs Inc.

Income Taxes	10. Income Taxes The Company’s interim income tax provision is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items arising in that period. The estimated annual effective tax rate requires judgment and is dependent upon several factors. The Company provides for income taxes under the liability method. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the tax basis of assets or liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will expire before the Company is able to realize their benefit. The Company calculates the valuation allowance in accordance with the authoritative guidance relating to income taxes, which requires an assessment of both positive and negative evidence regarding the realizability of these deferred tax assets, when measuring the need for a valuation allowance. Significant judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 25.5 % and 29.6 % for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 30.2 % and 43.9 % for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The primary driver for the effective tax rate variance in the nine-month period is the increase in pre-tax income combined with the permanent differences related to the mark-to-market adjustment on the private placement warrants and the adjustment to the carrying value of the Company's tax receivable agreement. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits increased by $ 8.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to prior year tax positions associated with the Redflex acquisition. As of September 30, 2022, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $ 11.2 million, of which $ 2.8 million would affect our effective tax rate if recognized. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits through income tax expense. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $ 0.2 million accrued for the payment of interest and penalties. We believe that it is reasonably possible that a decrease of up to $ 8.0 million in unrecognized tax benefits related to the Redflex acquisition may be necessary within the coming year, which will not have an impact to the statements of operations. On August 16, 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which, among other things, implements a 15 % minimum tax on book income of certain large corporations, a 1 % excise tax on net stock repurchases and several tax incentives to promote clean energy. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts of this legislation to the financial statements but does not expect them to be material. Effective January 1, 2022, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 requires taxpayers to capitalize, and subsequently amortize R&D expenses over five years for research activities conducted in the U.S. and over fifteen years for research activities conducted outside of the U.S. This will result in an increase to our U.S. income tax liability and net deferred tax assets. The actual impact will depend on multiple factors, including the amount of R&D expenses incurred and whether the research activities are performed within or outside of the U.S. The Company has evaluated the impacts of this change to the financial statements and noted them not to be material. The Company is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and taxing authorities in various jurisdictions. The Company files U.S. federal and various foreign income tax returns which are subject to examination by the taxing authorities in the respective jurisdictions, generally for three or four years after they are filed. The Company’s state income tax returns are generally no longer subject to income tax examination by tax authorities prior to 2018; however, the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards and research credit carryforwards arising prior to that year are subject to adjustment. The Company is currently under audit by various state tax jurisdictions for the years 2018 and 2019 , however, no material adjustments are anticipated. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of tax deficiencies in each of the tax jurisdictions and, accordingly, makes appropriate adjustments to the tax provision as deemed necessary.

Equity [Abstract]
Stockholders' Equity	11. Stockholders’ Equity Share Repurchases and Retirement - 2022 On May 7, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to an aggregate amount of $ 125.0 million of its outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock over the next twelve months from time to time in open market transactions, accelerated share repurchases (“ ASR ”) or in privately negotiated transactions, each as permitted under applicable rules and regulations, any of which may use pre-arranged trading plans that are designed to meet the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “ Exchange Act ”). On May 12, 2022, the Company paid $ 50.0 million, which represented the amount initially authorized for an ASR, and received an initial delivery of 2,739,726 shares of its Class A Common Stock in accordance with an ASR agreement with a third-party financial institution. The final settlement occurred on August 3, 2022, at which time, the Company received 445,086 additional shares calculated using a volume-weighted average price over the term of the ASR agreement. In addition, the Company paid $ 6.9 million to repurchase 445,791 shares of its Class A Common Stock through open market transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which it subsequently retired. The Company discontinued open market repurchases during the third quarter of 2022 and its Board of Directors authorized an ASR for the remaining availability under the share repurchase program. On August 19, 2022, the Company paid $ 68.1 million for a second ASR, and received an initial delivery of 3,300,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock in accordance with an ASR agreement with a third-party financial institution. The final settlement is expected to occur during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, at which time, a volume-weighted average price calculation over the term of the ASR agreement will be used to determine the final number and the average price of shares repurchased and retired. The Company accounted for each ASR transaction as a common stock repurchase and a forward contract indexed to its own common stock. The Company determined that the equity classification criteria was met for the forward contracts, therefore, it did not account for them as derivative instruments. The Company incurred $ 0.1 million of direct costs in connection with share repurchase transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which it included in the cost of the shares acquired. The Company paid a total of $ 125.0 million for shares repurchases and $ 0.1 million for direct costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and accounted for the transactions by deducting the par value from the common stock account, reducing $ 14.0 million from additional paid-in capital calculated using an average share price, and by increasing accumulated deficit for the remaining cost of $ 111.1 million. Share Repurchase and Retirement - 2021 On August 9, 2021, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to an aggregate amount of $ 100 million of its outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock. On August 20, 2021, the Company repurchased and retired 6,849,315 shares of its Class A Common Stock from the Platinum Stockholder at a price per share of $ 14.60 . The Company paid $ 100 million to fund the share repurchase using existing cash on hand. The Company accounted for the share repurchase and retirement under the cost method by deducting its par value from the common stock account, reducing $ 72.0 million from the additional paid-in-capital account using the share price when the stock was originally issued, and the remaining excess cost of $ 28.0 million by increasing the accumulated deficit account.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
Other Significant Transactions	13. Other Significant Transactions Tax Receivable Agreement At the closing of the Business Combination, the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement (“ TRA ”) with the Platinum Stockholder. On August 3, 2022, the Platinum Stockholder sold and transferred to Lakeside Smart Holdco L.P.(“ Lakeside ”), all of its rights, remaining interests and obligations as of that date under the TRA. The TRA provides for the payment to Lakeside of 50.0 % of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local income tax that the Company actually realizes (or is deemed to realize in certain circumstances) in periods after the closing of the Business Combination as a result of the increased tax basis of certain acquired intangibles prior to the Business Combination. The Company generally retains the benefit of the remaining 50.0 % of these cash savings. The Company estimated the potential maximum benefit to be paid will be approximately $ 70.0 million, and recorded an initial liability and corresponding charge to equity at the closing of the Business Combination. Subsequently, the Company made adjustments to this amount. At September 30, 2022, the TRA liability was approxima tely $ 60.8 million of which $ 5.1 million was the current portion and $ 55.7 million was the non-current portion, both of which are included in the respective tax receivable agreement liability line items on the condensed consolidated balance sheet . The Company recorded a $ 1.0 million benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and a $ 1.7 million charge for the nine months ended September 3 0, 2021. The TRA liability adjustment in 2022 is arising from lower estimated state tax rates due to changes in apportionment, whereas in 2021 it is arising from higher estimated state tax rates due to changes in statutory rates. Earn-Out Agreement Under the Merger Agreement, the Platinum Stockholder is entitled to receive additional shares of Class A Common Stock (the “ Earn-Out Shares ” ) if the volume weighted average closing sale price of one share of Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq exceeds certain thresholds for a period of at least 10 days out of 20 consecutive trading days at any time during the five-year period following the closing of the Business Combination (the “ Common Stock Price ”). The Earn-Out Shares are issued by the Company to the Platinum Stockholder as follows: Common Stock Price Thresholds One-time Issuance of Shares > $ 13.00 (a) 2,500,000 > $ 15.50 (a) 2,500,000 > $ 18.00 2,500,000 > $ 20.50 2,500,000 (a) The first and second tranches of Earn-Out Shares have been issued, as discussed below. If any of the Common Stock Price thresholds above (each, a “ Triggering Event ”) are not achieved within the five-year period following the closing of the Business Combination, the Company will no t be required to issue the Earn-Out Shares in respect of such Common Stock Price threshold. In no event shall the Platinum Stockholder be entitled to receive more than an aggregate of 10,000,000 Earn-Out Shares. If, during the earn-out period, there is a change of control (as defined in the Merger Agreement) that will result in the holders of the Company’s Class A Common Stock receiving a per share price equal to or in excess of the applicable Common Stock Price required in connection with any Triggering Event, then immediately prior to the consummation of such change of control: (a) any such Triggering Event that has not previously occurred shall be deemed to have occurred; and (b) the Company shall issue the applicable Earn-Out Shares to the cash consideration stockholders (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (in accordance with their respective pro rata cash share), and the recipients of the issued Earn-Out Shares shall be eligible to participate in such change of control. The Company estimated the original fair value of the contingently issuable shares to be $ 73.15 mil lion, of which $ 36.6 milli on remains contingently issuable as of September 30, 2022. The estimated value is not subject to future revisions during the five-year period discussed above. The Company used a Monte Carlo simulation option-pricing model to arrive at its original estimate. Each tranche was valued separately giving specific consideration to the tranche’s price target. The simulation considered volatility and risk-free rates utilizing a peer group based on a five -year term. This was initially recorded as a distribution to shareholders and was presented as common stock contingent consideration. Upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event, any issuable shares would be transferred from common stock contingent consideration to common stock and additional paid-in capital accounts. Any contingently issuable shares not issued as a result of a Triggering Event not being attained by the end of the earn-out period will be canceled. On April 26, 2019 and on January 27, 2020, the Triggering Events for the issuance of the first and second tranches of Earn-Out Shares occurred, as the volume weighted average closing sale price per share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock as of that date had been greater than $ 13.00 and $ 15.50 , respectively, for 10 out of 20 consecutive trading days. These Triggering Events resulted in the issuance of an aggregate 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock to the Platinum Stockholder and an increase in the Company’s common stock and additional paid-in capital accounts of $ 36.6 million, with a corresponding decrease to the common stock contingent consideration account. At September 30, 2022, the potential future Earn-Out Shares issuable are between zero and 5.0 million. Related Party Equity Investment Redflex Irish Investments Pty Ltd, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of the Company, owns a 16 % non-voting equity interest in Road Safety Operations Holdings Unlimited, which has a subsidiary, Road Safety Operations Holdings T/A Go Safe Ireland ( “ Go Safe ”), which provides speed and traffic enforcement services and related equipment to its customers in Ireland. This investment was approximate ly $ 3.2 milli on and $ 3.7 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and is presented within other non-current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company is engaged as a vendor to supply equipment and services to Go Safe and related revenues earned were approx imately $ 0.2 million and $ 0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $ 0.8 million and $ 0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The dividend income received for this investment in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $ 0.2 million.

Commitment and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	14. Commitments and Contingencies The Company has $ 1.7 million of bank guarantees at September 30, 2022 required to support bids and contracts with certain international customers. The Company has non-cancelable purchase commitments to certain vendors. The aggregate non-cancelable purchase commitments outstanding at September 30, 2022 were $ 39.3 mi llion. The majority of these outstanding commitments are expected to be incurred in 2022 and 2023, and approximate ly $ 1.3 mill ion is expected to be incurred between 2024 and 2025. The Company is subject to tax audits in the normal course of business and does not have material contingencies recorded related to such audits. The Company accrues for claims and contingencies when losses become probable and reasonably estimable. As of the end of each applicable reporting period, the Company reviews each of its matters and, where it is probable that a liability has been or will be incurred, the Company accrues for all probable and reasonably estimable losses. Where the Company can reasonably estimate a range of loss it may incur regarding such a matter, the Company records an accrual for the amount within the range that constitutes its best estimate. If the Company can reasonably estimate a range but no amount within the range appears to be a better estimate than any other, the Company uses the amount that is the low end of such range. Legal Proceedings The Company is subject to legal and regulatory actions that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. The Company records a liability when it believes it is probable a loss will be incurred and the amount of loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. The assessment as to whether a loss is probable, reasonably possible or remote, and as to whether a loss or a range of such loss is estimable, often involves significant judgment about future events. The Company has determined that resolution of pending matters is not probable to have a material adverse impact on its results of operations, cash flows, or financial position, and accordingly, no material contingency accruals are recorded. However, the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. As additional information becomes available, the Company reassesses the potential liability. Brantley v. City of Gretna is a class action lawsuit filed in the 24th Judicial District Court of Jefferson Parish, Louisiana against the City of Gretna (“ City ”) and its safety camera vendor, Redflex Traffic Systems, Inc. in April 2016. The plaintiff class, which was certified on March 30, 2021, alleges that the City’s safety camera program was implemented and operated in violation of local ordinances and the state constitution, including that the City’s hearing process violated the plaintiffs’ due process rights for lack of a “neutral” arbiter of liability for traffic infractions. Plaintiffs seek recovery of traffic infraction fines paid. The City and Redflex Traffic Systems, Inc. appealed the trial court’s ruling granting class certification, which was denied and their petition for discretionary review of the certification ruling by the Louisiana Supreme Court is now pending. Based on the information available to the Company at present, it cannot reasonably estimate a range of loss for this action and, accordingly, it has not accrued any liability associated with this action.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting	15. Segment Reporting The Company has three operating and reportable segments, Commercial Services, Government Solutions and Parking Solutions. Commercial Services offers toll and violation management solutions and title and registration services to commercial fleet vehicle owners, rental car companies and violation-issuing authorities. Government Solutions implements and administers traffic safety programs and products for municipalities and government agencies of all sizes. Parking Solutions provides an integrated suite of parking software and hardware solutions to its customers. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker function (“ CODM ”) is comprised of the Company’s CEO and certain defined representatives of the Company’s executive management team. The Company’s CODM monitors operating performance, allocates resources and deploys capital based on these three segments. Segment performance is based on revenues and income from operations before depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. The measure also excludes interest expense, net, income taxes and certain other transactions and is inclusive of other (income) expense, net. The tables below refer to this measure as segment profit. The aforementioned items are not indicative of operating performance, and, as a result are not included in the measures that are reviewed by the CODM for the segments. Other (income) expense, net included in segment profit below consists primarily of credit card rebates earned on the prepayment of tolling transactions and gains or losses on foreign currency transactions, and excludes certain non-operating expenses inapplicable to segments. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company changed its measure of segment profit to include (gain) loss on disposal of assets, net, and to exclude transaction and transformation expenses that were previously included within the selling, general and administrative expenses and other (income) expense line items below. The comparable prior periods have been recast to conform to the revised presentation, although the impact of this revision to previously reported segment profit was not material.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2022
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“ GAAP ”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates and assumptions include those related to the fair values assigned to net assets acquired (including identifiable intangibles) in business combinations, revenue recognition, inventory valuation, allowance for credit losses, fair value of the private placement warrant liabilities, valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, impairment assessments of goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, asset retirement obligations, contingent consideration and the recognition and measurement of loss contingencies. Management believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances; however, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk	Concentration of Credit Risk Significant customers are those which represent more than 10 % of the Company’s total revenue or accounts receivable, net. Revenue from the single Government Solutions customer exceeding 10 % of total revenue is presented below: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 City of New York Department of Transportation 20.5 % 25.5 % 19.5 % 25.6 % The City of New York Department of Transportation (“ NYCDOT ”) represented 29 % and 39 % of total accounts receivable, net as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. There is no material reserve related to NYCDOT open receivables as amounts are deemed collectible based on current conditions and exp ectations. No other Government Solutions customer exceeded 10% of total accounts receivable, net as of any period presented. Significant customer revenues generated through the Company’s Commercial Services partners as a percent of total revenue are presented below: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Hertz Corporation 12.6 % 12.9 % 11.8 % 13.2 % Avis Budget Group, Inc. 13.9 % 13.5 % 12.9 % 12.8 % Enterprise Holdings, Inc. 10.3 % 10.9 % 9.7 % 12.4 % No Commercial Services customer exceeded 10% of total accounts receivable, net as of any period presented. There were no significant customer concentrations that exceeded 10% of total revenue or accounts receivables, net for the Parking Solutions segment.
Allowance for Credit Loss	Allowance for Credit Losses The Company reviews historical credit losses and customer payment trends on receivables and develops loss rate estimates as of the balance sheet date, which includes adjustments for current and future expectations using probability-weighted assumptions about potential outcomes. Receivables are written off against the allowance for credit losses when it is probable that amounts will not be collected based on the terms of the customer contracts, and subsequent recoveries reverse the previous write-off and apply to the receivable in the period recovered. No interest or late fees are charged on delinquent accounts. The Company evaluates the adequacy of its allowance for expected credit losses by comparing its actual write-offs to its previously recorded estimates and adjusts appropriately. The Company identified portfolio segments based on the type of business, industry in which the customer operates and historical credit loss patterns. The following presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 , respectively: ($ in thousands) Commercial Services (1) Commercial Government Solutions Parking Solutions Total Balance at January 1, 2022 $ 5,397 $ 3,092 $ 3,649 $ — $ 12,138 Credit loss expense 8,867 835 694 496 10,892 Write-offs, net of recoveries ( 2,810 ) ( 2,089 ) ( 26 ) ( 430 ) ( 5,355 ) Balance at September 30, 2022 $ 11,454 $ 1,838 $ 4,317 $ 66 $ 17,675 ($ in thousands) Commercial Services (1) Commercial Government Solutions Total Balance at January 1, 2021 $ 3,210 $ 4,277 $ 3,984 $ 11,471 Credit loss expense 7,944 ( 820 ) ( 408 ) 6,716 Write-offs, net of recoveries ( 3,446 ) ( 45 ) ( 21 ) ( 3,512 ) Balance at September 30, 2021 $ 7,708 $ 3,412 $ 3,555 $ 14,675 (1) Driver-billed consists of receivables from drivers of rental cars and fleet management companies for which the Company bills on behalf of its customers. Receivables not collected from drivers within a defined number of days are transferred to customers subject to applicable bad debt sharing agreements. The Commercial Services (Driver-billed) portfolio segment’s credit loss estimate as of September 30, 2022 increased compared to the prior year due to increased revenue that impacted the volume of transactions as a result of recovery from COVID-19. The Commercial Services (All other) portfolio segment's credit loss estimate decreased at September 30, 2022 mainly due to a $ 1.7 million write-off for a rental car customer who filed for bankruptcy.
Revenue Recognition - Sale of Traffic Management Systems	Deferred revenue represents amounts that have been invoiced in advance and are expected to be recognized as revenue in future periods, and it primarily relates to Government Solutions and Parking Solutions customers. The Company had approximately $ 9.8 million and $ 8.9 million of deferred revenue in the Government Solutions segment as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 , respectively. The majority of the remaining performance obligations as of September 30, 2022 are expected to be completed and recognized as revenue in the next 12 months and $ 3.2 million is expected to be recognized between 2023 through 2027. The C ompany had approximatel y $ 25.6 milli on and $ 20.9 million of deferred revenue in the Parking Solutions segment as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The majority of the remaining performance oblig ations as of September 30, 2022 are expected to be completed and recognized as revenue in the next 12 months and $ 0.6 million is expected to be recognized in 2023.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Adopted In May 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ( “FASB” ) issued Accounting Standards Update ( “ASU” ) 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options . This ASU provides guidance for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that is not within the scope of another topic. It specifically addresses the measurement and recognition of the effect of a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option if it remains equity-classified after the modification or exchange. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2022, which did not have an impact on its financial statements and related disclosures, as the Company had no transactions subject to the standard. If the Company were to have modifications or exchanges in the future, such guidance would apply. In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance , to increase transparency in financial reporting by requiring business entities to disclose information about certain types of government assistance they receive. The amendments require annual disclosures regarding the nature of any transactions with a government accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy and the related accounting policy used, the effect of the assistance on the entity’s financial statements, and the significant terms and conditions of the transactions. The Company adopted the ASU as of January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact on its financial statements or related disclosures. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting . The ASU provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. It provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope , which clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The amendments are effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022, to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition period. Under the terms of the 2021 Term Loan (as defined below) discussed in Note 7. Long-term Debt , in the event there is a benchmark transition away from LIBOR, a benchmark replacement rate has been defined in the 2021 Term Loan agreement along with the mechanism for such a transition to take place. The Company does not anticipate this transition will have a material impact on its financial statements. On June 30, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions . The ASU clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. It also requires entities with investments in equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions to disclose certain qualitative and quantitative information about such securities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, including interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.
