SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative US GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation. The Company’s interim period results do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The significant accounting policies applied in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2022, have been applied consistently in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise stated. Use of Estimates The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions. The Company’s management believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Accounting Policies Software development costs Software development costs, which are included in property and equipment, net, consists of capitalized costs related to the purchase and development of internal-use software. The Company uses such software to provide services to its customers. The costs to purchase and develop internal-use software are capitalized from the time that the preliminary project stage is completed, and it is considered probable that the software will be used to perform the function intended. These costs include personnel and personnel-related employee benefits for employees directly associated with the software development and external costs of the materials or services consumed in developing or obtaining the software. Any costs incurred for upgrades and functionality enhancements of the software are also capitalized. Once this software is ready for use in providing the Company's services, these costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software, which is three years. The amortization is presented within depreciation and amortization in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 (unaudited), the Company capitalized $2,825 and $6,281, respectively, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 (unaudited), the Company capitalized $2,335 and $4,006, respectively, related to internal-use software cost. Impairment of long-lived assets Long-lived assets, including property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever facts or circumstances either internally or externally may indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. If there are indications of an impairment, the Company tests for recoverability by comparing the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset to the carrying amount of the asset or asset group. If the asset or asset group is determined to be impaired, any excess of the carrying value of the asset or asset group over its estimated fair value is recognized as an impairment loss. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 (unaudited), the Company tested its long-lived assets for recoverability and concluded that no impairment should be recognized. Goodwill and acquired intangible assets Goodwill and acquired intangible assets have been recorded in the Company's financial statements resulting from various business combinations. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price in a business combination over the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is subject to an annual impairment test. Reporting units are evaluated when changes in the Company’s operating structure occur, and if necessary, goodwill is reassigned using a relative fair value allocation approach. The Company currently has one reporting unit. ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and other (“ASC 350”) requires goodwill to be tested for impairment at least annually and, in certain circumstances, between annual tests. The accounting guidance gives the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. The qualitative assessment considers events and circumstances that might indicate that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying amount. If it is determined, as a result of the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a quantitative test is performed. The Company elects to perform an annual impairment test of goodwill as of October 1 of each year, or more frequently if impairment indicators are present. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded Goodwill impairment in the amount of $14,503. Refer to Note 3 for further details. Separately acquired intangible assets are measured on initial recognition at cost including directly attributable costs. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. Customer relationships, acquired technology and trade name are being amortized over the estimated useful life of approximately 11 years, 6 years, and 4 years, respectively, using the straight-line amortization method. The amortization of customer relationships, acquired technology and trade names, is presented within depreciation and amortization in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Fair value of financial instruments The Company applies a fair value framework to measure and disclose its financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 - Includes other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted deposits, trade receivables, net, trade payables, employees, payroll accruals, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and current portion of long-term debts. Their historical carrying amounts represent the approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The Company’s investments in money market funds are classified as cash equivalents and measured at fair value. The Company measures its warrant liability at fair value. The goodwill impairment recorded in the second quarter of 2023 was estimated using the Company's stock price, a Level 1 input, adjusted for an estimated control premium. The following tables present information about the Company’s financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis: June 30, 2023 (Unaudited) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Money market funds $ 36,323 $ — $ — Liabilities: Warrants liability $ 1,022 $ — $ — December 31, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Money market funds $ 18,948 $ — $ — Certificates of deposit — 20,000 — Liabilities: Warrants liability $ 1,265 $ — $ 3,036 The change in the fair value of the Level 3 warrant liability is summarized below: June 30, December 31, June 30, 2023 2022 2022 (Unaudited) (Unaudited) Beginning of the period $ 3,036 $ 15,462 $ 15,462 Change in fair value (2,330) (12,426) (13,132) Transfer to level 1 (706) — — End of the period $ — $ 3,036 $ 2,330 As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s warrant liability includes the Warrants (refer to Note 5), that were originally issued in connection with ION’s initial public offering, the “ION IPO,” which were transferred to the Company as part of the ION’s Transaction. The Company’s Warrants are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with changes in fair value recognized through earnings. This valuation is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each re-measurement the valuation will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. The Company has determined that the fair value of the Public Warrants and Transferred Private Warrants (refer to Note 5) Warrants , at the balance sheet date is determined by the closing price of the Company’s warrants, and are within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The closing price of the Public Warrants and Transferred Private Warrants was $0.10 as of June 30, 2023 the price for Public Warrants was $0.40 as of December 31, 2022. The Transferred Private Warrants are no longer classified as Level 3 as of June 30, 2023. Refer to Note 5, Warrants for further discussion . Gains and losses from the remeasurement of the Public and Private Warrants’ liability is recognized in finance income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. Concentrations of credit risks Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, deposits and trade receivables, net. Most of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are invested in deposits with major banks in the US and Israel. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by the financial institutions to the extent of the amounts recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets exceed federally insured limits. Generally, these investments may be redeemed upon demand and, therefore, bear minimal risk. The Company’s trade receivables, net is mainly derived from sales to customers located in the US, APAC, EMEA, and LATAM. The Company mitigates its credit risks by performing an ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions. The Company has no off-balance-sheet concentration of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. One of the Company’s customers accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. Three months ended June 30, Six months ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 (Unaudited) (Unaudited) (Unaudited) (Unaudited) Customer A 16 % *) 16 % *) *) less than 10% Revenue recognition Most of the Company’s revenues are derived from providing Ad serving solutions to advertisers, media agencies and publishers. The services focus on standard, interactive and data driven digital video advertising. Ad serving services relate to utilizing Innovid’s platform to serve advertising impressions to various digital publishers across CTV, mobile TV, desktop TV, display and other channels. The Company also provides measurement services to advertisers and agencies, streaming platforms and publishers. The measurement service provides analytics and the ability to track performance of advertising campaigns. The measurement service provides insights into the effectiveness of TV and digital advertising. The Company also provides creative services for the design and development of interactive data-driven and dynamic ad formats by adding data, interactivity and dynamic features to standard ad units. The Company recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised services in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those services. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from contracts with customers (“ASC 606”) and determines revenue recognition through the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied. For arrangements with multiple performance obligations, which represent promises within an arrangement that are capable of being distinct and are separately identifiable, the Company allocates the contract consideration to all distinct performance obligations based on their relative standalone selling price (“SSP”). SSP is typically estimated based on observable transactions when these services are sold on a standalone basis. Revenues related to ad serving services are recognized when impressions are delivered. The Company recognizes revenue from the display of impression-based ads in the contracted period in which the impressions are delivered. Impressions are considered delivered when an ad is displayed to users. Revenues related to the measurement services platform are recognized over time, since the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company’s performance. Revenues for these measurement services are recognized over the service period. Revenues related to creative projects are recognized at a point in time when the Company delivers an ad unit. Creative services projects are usually delivered within a week. The Company’s accounts receivable consist primarily of receivables related to providing ad serving, measurement and creative services, for which the Company’s contracted performance obligations have been satisfied, the amount has been billed and the Company has an unconditional right to payment. The Company typically bills customers monthly based on actual delivery. The payment terms vary, mainly with terms of 60 days or less. The typical contract term is 12 months or less for ASC 606 purposes. Most of the Company’s contracts can be canceled without cause. The Company has the unconditional right to payment for the services provided as of the date of the termination of the contracts. The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC 606 and does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between when the Company transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less. Deferred revenues represent mostly unrecognized fees billed or collected for measurement platform services. Deferred revenues are recognized as (or when) we perform under the contract. Ad serving services were 77.3% and 78.4% of the Company’s revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 (unaudited) and 2022 (unaudited), respectively and were 77.2% and 83.4% of the Company’s revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 (unaudited) and 2022 (unaudited). Measurement services were 22.7% and 21.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 (unaudited) and June 30, 2022 (unaudited), respectively and were 22.8% and 16.6% of the Company’s revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 (unaudited) and 2022 (unaudited). Costs to obtain a contract Contract costs include commission programs to compensate sales employees for generating sales orders with new customers or for new services with existing customers. Generally, the commissions are commensurate. The Company elected to apply the practical expedient and recognize incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. If commissions are not commensurate, the Company capitalizes these commissions. Capitalized commission costs were immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 (unaudited) and June 30, 2022 (unaudited). Trade receivable, net The Company records trade receivable for amounts invoiced and yet unbilled invoices. The Company makes estimates of expected credit losses for the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon its assessment of various factors, including historical experience, the age of the trade receivable balances, credit quality of its customers, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect its ability to collect from customers. The estimated credit loss allowance is recorded as general and administrative expenses on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. Income taxes and tax contingencies Income taxes are computed using a balance sheet approach reflecting both current and deferred taxes. Current and deferred taxes reflect the tax impact of all of the events included in the financial statements. The basic principles employed in the balance sheet approach are to reflect a current tax liability or asset that is recognized for the estimated taxes payable or refundable on tax returns for the current and prior years, a deferred tax liability or asset that is recognized for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards, the measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities and assets is based on provisions of the enacted tax law of which the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated, and the measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. There are certain situations in which deferred taxes are not provided. Some basis differences are not temporary differences because their reversals are not expected to result in taxable or deductible amounts. The Company regularly evaluates deferred tax assets for future realization and establishes a valuation allowance to the extent that a portion is not more likely than not to be realized. The Company considers whether it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized, including existing cumulative losses in recent years, expectations of future taxable income, carryforward periods and other relevant quantitative and qualitative factors. The recoverability of the deferred tax assets is evaluated by assessing the adequacy of future expected taxable income from all sources, including reversal of taxable temporary differences, forecasted operating earnings and available tax planning strategies. These sources of income rely on estimates. ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”) contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring a liability for uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that, on an evaluation of the technical merits, the tax position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% (cumulative basis) likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company classifies interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in taxes on income. On December 20, 2017, Congress passed the “US Tax Act.” The US Tax Act requires complex computations to be performed that were not previously required by US tax law, significant judgments to be made in interpretation of the provisions of the US Tax Act, significant estimates in calculations and the preparation and analysis of information not previously relevant or regularly produced. The US Tax Act provides that a person who is a US shareholder of any CFC is required to include its GILTI in gross income for the tax year in a manner generally similar to that for Subpart F inclusions. The term “global intangible low taxed income” is defined as the excess (if any) of the US shareholder’s net CFC tested income for that tax year, over the US shareholder’s net deemed tangible income return for that tax year. The Company’s policy is to treat GILTI as a period expense in the provision for income taxes. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements |
