Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Business Description | Business Description Description of the Business Local Bounti is a premier CEA company redefining conversion efficiency and ESG standards for indoor agriculture. Local Bounti operates an advanced indoor growing facility in Hamilton, Montana, within a few hours' drive of its retail and food service partners. Reaching retail shelves in record time post-harvest, Local Bounti produce is superior in taste and quality compared to traditional field-grown greens. Local Bounti's GAP Plus+ and non-GMO produce is sustainably grown using proprietary technology 365 days a year, using significantly less pesticides and herbicides, and using 90% less land and 90% less water than conventional outdoor farming methods. With a mission to 'bring our farm to your kitchen in the fewest food miles possible,' Local Bounti is disrupting the cultivation and delivery of produce. On November 19, 2021 (the "Closing Date"), the Company (at such time named Leo Holdings III Corp) consummated the Business Combination pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 17, 2021 with Legacy Local Bounti. In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company changed its name from Leo Holdings III Corp to Local Bounti Corporation. The Company’s common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol "LOCL." On March 14, 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire California-based complementary indoor farming company Pete's, for total consideration of $122.5 million, subject to customary adjustments. Local Bounti expects to close the acquisition of Pete’s in the second quarter of 2022. See Note 17, Subsequent Events , for further information regarding the Company’s acquisition of Pete’s. Unless the context otherwise requires, the "Company" refers to the combined company and its subsidiary following the Business Combination. "Leo" refers to the Company prior to the Business Combination and "Legacy Local Bounti" refers to Local Bounti prior to the Business Combination. "New Local Bounti" refers to Local Bounti subsequent to the Business Combination. For further discussion of the Business Combination, refer to Note 3, Business Combination and Recapitalization . |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the Consolidated Financial Statements herein. Reclassification The Company reclassified depreciation in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 to conform to the presentation for the year ended December 31, 2021. Depreciation is no longer stated as a separate financial statement line item on the Consolidated Statements of Operations but it has instead been allocated to cost of goods sold, research and development, and selling, general and administrative expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. This reclassification had no impact on loss from operations or net loss. The Company believes this reclassification is preferable because it enhances the comparability of its Consolidated Financial Statements with those of many of its industry peers and aligns with how the Company internally manages and reviews costs and margin. Stock Split On November 19, 2021, the Company effected a 1-to- 4.969669 stock split in connection with the Business Combination. All share and earnings per share information have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split and the incremental par value of the newly issued shares was recorded with the offset to additional paid-in capital. Use of Estimates The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to the valuation of instruments issued for stock-based compensation, inventory valuation reserve, warrant liabilities, and income taxes, among others. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates. Significant Risks and Uncertainties The Company is subject to those risks common in the consumer products and agriculture industries and those risks common to early stage development companies, including, but not limited to, the possibility of not being able to successfully develop or market its products, competition, dependence on key personnel and key external alliances, the ability to maintain and establish relationships with current and future vendors and suppliers, the successful protection of its proprietary technologies, compliance with government regulations, and the possibility of not being able to obtain additional financing when needed. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid, short-term investments with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents in a commercial bank. From time to time, cash balances in these accounts exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. The Company mitigates exposure to credit risk by placing cash and cash equivalents with highly rated financial institutions. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts, and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents. Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents Restricted cash and cash equivalents are restricted through legal contracts or regulations. On September 3, 2021, the Company entered into Credit Agreements with Cargill Financial, including the Subordinated Facility to borrow up to $50,000 thousand and the Senior Facility to borrow up to $150,000 thousand. For further detail, see Note 7, Debt. As part of the Subordinated Facility, the Company is required to establish an "Interest Reserve Account," which is a deposit account, that contains minimum funds in an amount equal to or greater than the Minimum Interest Amount (as set forth in the Subordinated Facility agreement). The Company has drawn a total of $16,293 thousand on the Subordinated Facility as of December 31, 2021. Out of the total outstanding balance, $4,416 thousand was to fund the Interest Reserve Account and is included in "Restricted cash and cash equivalents" on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The long-term portion of the Subordinated Facility is included in "Long-term debt" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable includes billed receivables and is presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses, current market conditions, customers’ financial condition, the age of the receivables, and current payment patterns. Account balances are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The allowance for doubtful accounts was not material at December 31, 2021 and 2020. Fair Value Measurements The Company measures fair value based on the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs used in valuation techniques are assigned a hierarchical level. The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value: • Level 1— This level consists of quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. • Level 2— This level consists of observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data. • Level 3— This level consists of unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inventory Inventory is carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost method. Inventory write-downs are recorded for shrinkage, damaged, stale and slow-moving items. The assessment of recoverability of inventories and the amounts of any write-downs are based on currently available information and assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Demand for produce may fluctuate significantly over time, and actual demand and market conditions may be more or less favorable than the Company’s projections. If actual demand is lower than originally projected, additional inventory write- downs may be required. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for additions or renewals and improvements are capitalized; expenditures for maintenance and repairs that neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its economic life are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are as follows: Asset Class Estimated Useful Life Greenhouse Facility 30 years Production Equipment 5 years Office Equipment 3 years Leasehold Improvements Shorter of lease term or useful life of asset Intangible Assets Finite-lived intangible assets consist of software. These assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives. Finite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment only when management has determined that potential impairment indicators are present. Intangible assets is included in "Other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. COVID-19 and Paycheck Protection Program Loan On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (the "COVID-19 outbreak") and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") was signed into law. The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, and deferment of the employer’s portion of Social Security taxes. In April 2020, the Company received $104 thousand from stimulus loans under the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") of the CARES Act. The PPP is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the "SBA"). For additional discussion of the PPP loan, refer to Note 7, Debt. The Company’s eligibility for the stimulus loan, expenditures that qualify toward forgiveness, and the final balance of the stimulus loan that may be forgiven were subject to audit and final approval by the SBA. To the extent that all or part of the stimulus loan was not forgiven, the Company was required to pay interest at 1% and, commencing in October 2020, interest payments were required through the maturity date in April 2022. The terms of the stimulus loan provide for customary events of default including, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, and insolvency events. The stimulus loan may have been accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default, including if the SBA subsequently reached an audit determination that the Company did not meet the eligibility criteria. In June 2021, the Company repaid the amounts under the PPP loan. Leases The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, Leases ("ASC 842") , effective August 20, 2018 (the date of the Company’s incorporation) since it was early adopted by the Company. The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception of a contract. The Company defines a lease as a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of identified property or equipment (an identified asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of the identified asset means that the Company has both the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and the right to direct the use of the asset. The right-of-use assets, net and liabilities associated with leases are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. Lease terms reflect options to extend or not to terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. For leases that include residual value guarantees, the Company includes these costs in the lease liability when it is probable such costs will be incurred. The Company utilizes certain practical expedients and policy elections available under ASC 842. The Company does recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for short-term leases (leases with an initial term of 12 months or less) and the Company has elected to separate lease and non-lease components for all existing classes of assets. Operating lease expenses for fixed lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments to the lessor such as maintenance, utilities, insurance, and real estate taxes are expensed as incurred. For further discussion, see Note 9, Leases . Revenue Recognition The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the Company’s adoption of ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) effective August 20, 2018 (the date of the Company’s incorporation). Sale of produce: The Company’s principal business is the production and sale of sustainably grown fresh greens and herbs through CEA facilities. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the product control is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods. In general, control transfers to the customer when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer based upon applicable shipping terms. Customer contracts generally do not include more than one performance obligation. Sale of intellectual property: Revenue is generated from the sale of intellectual property that the Company has developed. For each licensing agreement for intellectual property, the promise to deliver a license that grants the customer the right to use the intellectual property is considered to be a distinct performance obligation. Revenue from intellectual property is recognized at a point in time upon delivery of documentation of the Company's intellectual property to the licensee. Intellectual property sold in 2021 consisted of intellectual property for salad kits, including the licensed know-how for recipes, packaging support, and branding kit development. Revenue by major product or service type is as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 (in thousands) Revenue from sale of produce $ 551 $ 82 Revenue from sale of intellectual property 87 — Total Revenue $ 638 $ 82 The Company does not have unbilled receivable balances arising from transactions with customers. Payment terms are generally between 10 to 20 days. The Company does not capitalize contract inception costs, as contracts (which are in the form of purchase orders from customers) are one year or less and the Company does not incur significant fulfillment costs requiring capitalization. The Company has made the accounting policy election to exclude any sales and similar taxes from the transaction price. As a result, revenue is presented net of these taxes. Research and Development Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation to employees engaged in research and development activities, including salaries, and related benefits, in addition to related overhead (including depreciation, utilities and other related allocated expenses) as well as supplies and services related to the development of the Company’s growing process. Local Bounti’s research and development efforts are focused on development of the Company’s process utilizing its CEA facility. Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all equity-based awards made to employees, directors, and non-employees, based on estimated fair values recognized over the requisite service period in accordance with ASC 718, Stock-Based Compensation . Stock-based payments are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a selling, general and administrative expense. The Company recognizes compensation expense for all equity-based awards with service vesting requirements on a tranche-by-tranche basis using the accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the award’s vesting period. Forfeitures of awards are accounted for in the period in which they occur. Advertising Advertising expenses are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred advertising expenses of $703 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021. Advertising expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were not material. Advertising expenses are included in "Selling, general and administrative" expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Under this method, deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for income tax purposes and operating losses carried forward, measured by applying tax rates based on currently enacted tax laws. Valuation allowances are calculated, when necessary, to reduce the net deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Changes in the valuation allowances occurring in subsequent periods are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognizes uncertain tax positions based upon its estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due when such estimates are more likely than not to be sustained. Uncertain income tax positions are not recognized if there is less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Concentrations of Risk and Significant Customers Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents accounts with financial institutions which management believes to be of high-credit quality. The Company is exposed to risk in the event of default by these financial institutions or the issuers of these securities to the extent the balances are in excess of amounts that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company’s receivables are derived from revenue earned from customers located in the United States. The Company provides credit to its customers in the normal course of business and requires no collateral to secure accounts receivable. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts related to estimated credit losses. Significant customers are those customers who represent 10% or more of total revenue during the year or 10% or more of net accounts receivable at the balance sheet date. At December 31, 2021, there were four significant customers that accounted for approximately 81% of the Company's accounts receivable. For the year ended December 31, 2021, four individual customers represented more than 10% of total revenue. In aggregate, these four customers represented approximately 82% of the Company's revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021. Contingencies Loss contingencies (other than income tax-related contingencies) arise from actual or possible claims and assessments and pending or threatened litigation that may be brought against the Company by individuals, governments or other entities. Based on the Company's assessment of loss contingencies at each balance sheet date, a loss is recorded in the financial statements if it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Segment Reporting The Company has a single operating and reportable segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Co-Chief Executive Officers, who review financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance, and allocating resources. Emerging Growth Company Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The Company qualifies as an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act, and therefore intends to take advantage of certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements, including delaying adoption of new or revised accounting standards until those standards apply to private companies. The effective dates shown below reflect the election to use the extended transition period. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2021, the FASB issued 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, which clarifies the accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (e.g. warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of the ASU will have on the Company’s accounting of its debt and warrants. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liability and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The standard reduces the number of models used to account for convertible instruments, removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and requires the if-converted method for calculation of diluted earnings per share for all convertible instruments. The standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2022 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which amends the guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost and available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost, the amendment eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current U.S. GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2023 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Reverse Recapitalization [Abstract] | |
Business Combination and Recapitalization | Business Combination and Recapitalization On November 19, 2021, the Company consummated the Business Combination pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 17, 2021, by and among Leo, and Legacy Local Bounti. In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination (the “Closing”), the registrant changed its name from Leo Holdings III Corp to Local Bounti Corporation. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP as Legacy Local Bounti has been determined to be the accounting acquirer, based on the following predominant factors: • Legacy Local Bounti stockholders have the largest portion of voting rights in the Company; • the Board and Management are primarily composed of individuals associated with Legacy Local Bounti; and • Legacy Local Bounti was the larger entity based on historical operating activity and Legacy Local Bounti had the larger employee base at the time of the Business Combination. Under this method of accounting, while Leo was the legal acquirer, it has been treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Local Bounti issuing stock for the net assets of Leo, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Leo were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination are those of Legacy Local Bounti. Reported shares and earnings per share available to holders of the Company’s common stock, prior to the business combination, have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the Business Combination (approximately 4.969669 Local Bounti shares to every share of Leo). In connection with the Business Combination, Leo entered into subscription agreements with certain investors (the "PIPE Investors"), whereby it issued 15,000,000 shares of common stock at $10.00 per share (the "PIPE Shares") for an aggregate purchase price of $150,000 thousand (the "PIPE Financing"), which closed simultaneously with the consummation of the Business Combination. Upon the closing of the Business Combination, the PIPE Investors were issued shares of the Company’s common stock. The aggregate consideration for the Business Combination and proceeds from the PIPE Financing was approximately $150,000 thousand , consisting of shares of common stock valued at $10.00 per share. Including the PIPE financing, the aggregate common stock consideration consists of 83,514,977 shares of Legacy Local Bounti common stock, including shares issuable in respect of vested equity awards of the Legacy Local Bounti. In connection with the Business Combination, the Company incurred direct and incremental costs of $34,773 thousand related to the equity issuance, consisting of $30,422 thousand of investment banking, legal, accounting and |

The Convertible Notes were accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value being recognized under Convertible Notes fair value adjustment within the income statement. The Convertible Notes had a conversion feature that triggered upon the earliest of a qualified equity financing or a qualified SPAC transaction, as defined by the agreement. On November 19, 2021, upon the closing of Business Combination, the outstanding principal of all the Convertible Notes were converted into a number of shares of common stock, at a conversion price equal to value of each share of common stock in the qualified SPAC transaction multip lied by 85%.

In connection with the original loan, the lender also received 25% equity warrant coverage on the original loan amount. The warrant to purchase shares entitles the lender to a number of shares totaling 25% of the principal amount of the loan multiplied by 85% of the lowest cash price per share upon the earliest of a qualified equity financing, SPAC transaction, or an acquisition, as defined by the agreement. The warrants are still outstanding. For more information on the warrants, see Note 11, Stockholders' Equity (Deficit).

Financing Obligation [Abstract] | |
Financing Obligation | Financing Obligation In June 2020, the Company completed the construction of the Montana Facility. Subsequent to the completion, the Company entered into a sale and finance leaseback transaction for the Montana Facility with Grow Bitterroot, a related party, for total consideration of $6,885 thousand with an initial term of 15 years. The Company also has an option to extend the term of the facility lease for three consecutive terms of five years each, of which the Company currently reasonably expects to extend the first term. In addition, the Company and Grow Bitterroot entered into a property maintenance and management services agreement under which the Company will provide all property maintenance and management services including business, operational, strategic and advisory services in exchange for an annual fee of $50 thousand. The property maintenance and management services agreement includes an initial term of three years with one year autorenewals unless terminated by either party with 30 days’ notice. The transaction did not qualify for sale leaseback accounting due to the finance leaseback classification prohibiting sale accounting. As such, the transaction is accounted for as a financing transaction (a failed sale). Therefore, the assets remain on the Consolidated Balance Sheet (see Note 5, Property and Equipment ) with the proceeds from the transaction and purchases of equipment on behalf of the related party recorded as a financing obligation. In addition, the Company will manage the facility and perform maintenance in exchange for a management fee under the property maintenance and management services agreement. The contractual payments for both the lease agreement and property maintenance and management agreement are applied as payments of deemed principal and imputed interest. The Company utilized a rate of 11.60% to calculate imputed interest. See Note 16, Related Party Transactions , for further discussion. The lease agreement does not contain residual value guarantees. The agreement does not contain restrictions or covenants that may result in additional financial obligations. The landlord has the option to construct future improvements on the property; when the improvements are completed, the base rent will increase.

Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares of common stock. The warrants will expire on November 19, 2026, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the public warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants were not transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants are non-redeemable so long as they are held by Leo Investors III LP (the "Sponsor") or any of its permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Warrants.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
Stock-based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation In 2020, the Company adopted an Equity Incentive Plan (the "2020 Plan") pursuant to which the Company’s Board of Directors could grant stock awards to employees and service providers. According to the 2020 Plan, incentive stock options may only be granted to eligible employees. Non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, and employee stock purchase plan were also included in the 2020 Plan, which could be granted to service providers. A total of 2,250,000 shares of restricted common stock were originally reserved for issuance. The 2020 Plan was amended to adjust the total number of shares available for issuance under the 2020 Plan to 3,250,000 of which 2,541,501 awards had been made as of November 19, 2021 (prior to the close of the Business Combination) . In October 2021, the Company adopted a new Equity Incentive Plan (the "2021 Plan"), which replaced the 2020 Plan. The 2020 Plan terminate upon the effectiveness of the 2021 Plan, at which time the outstanding awards previously granted thereunder were assumed by the Company. Following termination of the 2020 Plan, no new awards will be granted under such plan but previously granted awards will continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of the 2020 Plan and the stock award agreements pursuant to which such awards were granted. Under the 2021 Plan, the Company can grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and certain other awards which are settled in the form of common shares under the 2021 Plan. As part of the close of the Business Combination, the awards outstanding under the 2020 Plan were split by using the exchange rate of 4.969669 resulting in 12,630,417 awards outstanding. Restricted Common Stock Awards The Company granted change in control restricted common stock awards (RSAs) under the 2020 Plan. Upon a "change in control" (as defined in the 2020 Plan) of Local Bounti, the change in control restricted common stock awards would vest in full. If a "qualified public offering" of the common stock of Local Bounti occurred (as defined in the 2020 Plan, which includes the consummation of the Business Combination) prior to a change in control, then the change in control restricted common stock would vest upon the vesting schedule set forth in the 2020 Plan or individual award agreements. The fair value of the restricted common stock-based compensation awards was determined using the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant as determined by the Board. In November 2021, Legacy Local Bounti and certain restricted stockholders amended their change in control restricted stock awards to remove the vesting trigger and converted the vesting to four-year time-based vesting, with 10% vesting on the first anniversary of the original vesting commencement date and 30% vesting on each anniversary thereafter, subject to the grantee’s continued service on each applicable vesting date. As the vesting trigger was removed, the Company was required to recognize the compensation expenses through the Consolidated Statement of Operations. A summary of the change in control restricted common stock activity awards for 2021 and 2020 is as follows: Number of Shares of Restricted Common Stock Awards Average Grant-Date Fair Value 1 Unvested at January 1, 2020 — $ — Granted 1,799,811 $ 1.27 Retroactive conversion of shares due to the Business Combination 7,144,653 $ 1.27 Unvested at December 31, 2020, as converted 8,944,464 $ 1.27 Granted 2,086,827 $ 2.66 Forfeited (904,698) $ 1.27 Vested (4,647,142) $ 1.27 Unvested at December 31, 2021 5,479,451 $ 1.80 _____________________ 1 These amounts give effect to the 1-to-4.969669 Stock Split in connection with the Business Combination that occurred in November 19, 2021. The total expense of restricted common stock for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $9,551 thousand and $0 thousand, respectively. As of December 31, 2021 , the total compensation cost related to unvested restricted common stock not yet recognized is $6,219 thousand. Unvested restricted common stock not yet recognized is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.34 years. Restricted Stock Units The Legacy Local Bounti board of directors granted RSUs under the 2020 Plan. The Company has entered into various RSU agreements with both employees and nonemployees. The vesting for these RSUs range from three months to four years on a graded vesting schedule. A summary of the change in control RSUs activity for 2021 (there was no activity prior to 2021) is as follows: Number of RSUs Average Grant-Date Fair Value 1 Unvested at December 31, 2020 — $ — Granted and vested 503,821 $ 9.60 Retroactive conversion of shares due to the Business Combination 2,000,003 $ 9.60 Forfeited (2,485) $ 9.97 Vested 2 (105,550) $ 6.75 Unvested and outstanding at December 31, 2021 2,395,789 $ 9.73 _____________________ 1 These amounts give effect to the 1-to-4.969669 Stock Split in connection with the Business Combination that occurred on November 19, 2021. 2 These shares were net settled for 45,396 shares to cover the required withholding tax upon vesting. The total expense value of RSUs for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $3,402 thousand and $0 thousand respectively. As of December 31, 2021 , the total compensation cost related to unvested RSUs not yet recognized is $20,616 thousand. Unvested RSUs not yet recognized are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.63 years. Stock Restriction Agreements On June 27, 2019 , the Company entered into stock restriction agreements with two stockholders of the Company, whereby certain vesting restrictions were imposed on the stockholders’ shares as a condition to a third-party investor’s requirement to invest in the Company at a cash purchase price of approximately $19.67 per share. Under the stock restriction agreements, the Company has the exclusive option to repurchase all or any portion of the restricted shares held by the stockholders which have not vested upon termination of their services. The restricted shares are released from the Company’s option to repurchase in twelve quarterly installments. In April 2020, the Company entered into a settlement agreement for the repurchase of shares from one of the stockholders, as discussed in Note 11, Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) . The grant date fair value of the restricted shares was deemed to be the price per share as determined in the contemporaneous issuance of common stock. Compensation expense recorded was $4,942 thousand and $3,295 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 , respectively. In March 2021, the Company terminated the stock restriction agreement with the remaining stockholders and recognized all remaining unvested compensation expense during the first quarter of 2021. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred net operating losses and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. On December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $41,800 thousand of U.S. federal and state net operating losses. On December 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $7,200 thousand of federal and state net operating losses. These net operating loss carryforwards can be carried forward by the Company indefinitely. The components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: Year Ended December 31, (in thousands) 2021 2020 Currently reportable expense Federal $ — $ — State — — — — Deferred benefit: Federal 6,129 1,841 State 2,163 591 8,292 2,432 Less valuation allowance (8,292) (2,432) Total provision for income tax expense $ — $ — December 31, (in thousands) 2021 2020 Gross deferred tax assets arising from Net operating loss carryforwards $ 11,619 $ 1,990 ASC 842 right-of-use asset and liability 3,661 979 Capitalized SPAC transaction costs 1,207 — 16,487 2,969 Deferred tax liabilities arising from: Deferred franchise tax (598) — ASC 842 right-of-use asset (3,071) — Depreciation (1,714) (156) Total deferred tax liabilities (5,383) (156) Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance 11,104 2,813 Less valuation allowance (11,104) (2,813) Net deferred tax assets $ — $ — For financial reporting purposes, the Company has incurred a loss in each period since its inception. Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of losses, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2021 and 2020. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the change in the valuation allowance of $8,291 thousand and $2,432 thousand, respectively, was primarily due to the generation of additional net operating losses. The Company's income tax returns and the amount of income or loss reported are subject to examination by the respective taxing authorities. If such examinations result in changes to the profits or losses, the tax liabilities of the Company could be changed accordingly. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Net Loss Per Share | Net Loss Per Share Net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period. In computing net loss per share, the Company’s unvested restricted common stock and warrants are not considered participating securities. Diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share for all periods presented because the effects of potentially dilutive items were anti-dilutive given the Company’s net loss. Diluted net loss per common share adjusts basic net loss per share attributable to ordinary shareholders to give effect to all potential ordinary shares that were dilutive and outstanding during the period. For the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, no instrument was determined to have a dilutive effect. Net loss per share calculations for all periods prior to the Business Combination have been retrospectively restated to the equivalent number of shares reflecting the exchange ratio established in the reverse capitalization. Subsequent to the Business Combination, net loss per share was calculated based on weighted average number of shares of common stock then outstanding. The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s net loss per share attributable to stockholders: Year Ended December 31, (in thousands, except share and per share data) 2021 2020 Net loss $ (56,093) $ (8,409) Weighted average common stock outstanding, basic and diluted 52,888,268 49,676,523 Net loss per common share, basic and diluted $ (1.06) $ (0.17) The following table discloses the weighted-average shares outstanding of securities that could potentially dilute basic net loss per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share as the impact would be anti-dilutive: Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 CIC Restricted Stock 9,876,930 654,960 Warrants 1,556,628 — |

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
Subsequent Events | Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated subsequent events from the Consolidated Balance Sheet date through March 30, 2022, the date the Consolidated Financial Statements were issued. On March 14, 2022, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire California-based complementary indoor farming company Hollandia Produce Group, Inc., which operates under the name Pete's, for total consideration of $122.5 million, subject to customary adjustments. The Pete's Acquisition consideration will be comprised of $92.5 million in cash, expected to be provided pursuant to Local Bounti’s existing lending facility with Cargill, and the remaining $30.0 million of consideration payable in shares of Local Bounti common stock. On March 14, 2022, in connection with the Pete's Acquisition, Pete’s also entered into a purchase and sale agreement with STORE to acquire all of the properties currently being leased by Pete’s pursuant to certain sale-leaseback agreements between Pete’s and STORE for an aggregate purchase price of $25.8 million to be paid by Local Bounti in connection with the closing of the Acquisition, but not included in the total consideration set forth above. On March 14, 2022, the Company entered into an Amendment to amend the Original Credit Agreements and the Original Facilities. The Amendment provides that, subject to and upon the closing of the Pete’s Acquisition, (a) the Pete’s Acquisition will be funded pursuant to the Amended Facilities, (b) the aggregate commitment amount of the Original Facilities will be reduced to $170.0 million which is anticipated to be the amount necessary to fund the Pete’s Acquisition, the Property Acquisition, the updating of the facilities to be acquired in the Pete’s Acquisition with the Company’s Stack & Flow Technology™ and certain expansion at one facility, (c) the minimum liquidity covenant will be reduced from $30 million to $20 million (inclusive of existing restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets) and (d) the interest rate of each of the Senior Facility and the Subordinated Facility will increase by 2%, among other matters. As part of the Amendment, the Company agreed to (i) pay a $2.0 million amendment fee and (ii) issue 1,932,931 shares of Common Stock to Cargill Financial upon the closing of the Pete’s Acquisition. There have been no other events or transactions that occurred subsequent to December 31, 2021 that require recognition or disclosure. |

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted |
Reclassification | Reclassification The Company reclassified depreciation in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 to conform to the presentation for the year ended December 31, 2021. Depreciation is no longer stated as a separate financial statement line item on the Consolidated Statements of Operations but it has instead been allocated to cost of goods sold, research and development, and selling, general and administrative expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. This reclassification had no impact on loss from operations or net loss. The Company believes this reclassification is preferable because it enhances the comparability of its Consolidated Financial Statements with those of many of its industry peers and aligns with how the Company internally manages and reviews costs and margin. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to the valuation of instruments issued for stock-based compensation, inventory valuation reserve, warrant liabilities, and income taxes, among others. The Company bases these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making |
Significant Risks and Uncertainties | Significant Risks and Uncertainties The Company is subject to those risks common in the consumer products and agriculture industries and those risks common to early stage development companies, including, but not limited to, the possibility of not being able to successfully develop or market its products, competition, dependence on key personnel and key external alliances, the ability to maintain and establish relationships with current and future vendors and suppliers, the successful protection of its proprietary technologies, compliance with government regulations, and the possibility of not being able to obtain additional financing when needed. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid, short-term investments with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents in a commercial bank. From time to time, cash balances in these accounts exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. The Company mitigates exposure to credit risk by placing cash and cash equivalents with highly rated financial institutions. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts, and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents. |
Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents | Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents Restricted cash and cash equivalents are restricted through legal contracts or regulations. On September 3, 2021, the Company entered into Credit Agreements with Cargill Financial, including the Subordinated Facility to borrow up to $50,000 thousand and the Senior Facility to borrow up to $150,000 thousand. For further detail, see Note 7, Debt. As part of the Subordinated Facility, the Company is required to establish an "Interest Reserve Account," which is a deposit account, that contains minimum funds in an amount equal to or greater than the Minimum Interest Amount (as set forth in the Subordinated Facility agreement). The Company has drawn a total of $16,293 thousand on the Subordinated Facility as of December 31, 2021. Out of the total outstanding balance, $4,416 thousand was to fund the Interest Reserve Account and is included in "Restricted cash and cash equivalents" on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The long-term portion of the Subordinated Facility is included in "Long-term debt" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable includes billed receivables and is presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses, current market conditions, customers’ financial condition, the age of the receivables, and current payment patterns. Account balances are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The allowance for doubtful accounts was not material at December 31, 2021 and 2020. |

The allowance for doubtful accounts was not material at December 31, 2021 and 2020. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company measures fair value based on the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs used in valuation techniques are assigned a hierarchical level. The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value: • Level 1— This level consists of quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. • Level 2— This level consists of observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data. • Level 3— This level consists of unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. |
Inventory | Inventory Inventory is carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost method. Inventory write-downs are recorded for shrinkage, damaged, stale and slow-moving items. The assessment of recoverability of inventories and the amounts of any write-downs are based on currently available information and assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Demand for produce may fluctuate significantly over time, and actual demand and market conditions may be more or less favorable than the Company’s projections. If actual demand is lower than originally projected, additional inventory write- downs may be required. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for additions or renewals and improvements are capitalized; expenditures for maintenance and repairs that neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its economic life are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are as follows: Asset Class Estimated Useful Life Greenhouse Facility 30 years Production Equipment 5 years Office Equipment 3 years Leasehold Improvements Shorter of lease term or useful life of asset |
Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets Finite-lived intangible assets consist of software. These assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives. Finite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment only when management has determined that potential impairment indicators are present. Intangible assets is included in "Other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. |
Leases | Leases The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, Leases ("ASC 842") , effective August 20, 2018 (the date of the Company’s incorporation) since it was early adopted by the Company. The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception of a contract. The Company defines a lease as a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of identified property or equipment (an identified asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of the identified asset means that the Company has both the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and the right to direct the use of the asset. The right-of-use assets, net and liabilities associated with leases are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. Lease terms reflect options to extend or not to terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. For leases that include residual value guarantees, the Company includes these costs in the lease liability when it is probable such costs will be incurred. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the Company’s adoption of ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) effective August 20, 2018 (the date of the Company’s incorporation). Sale of produce: The Company’s principal business is the production and sale of sustainably grown fresh greens and herbs through CEA facilities. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the product control is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods. In general, control transfers to the customer when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer based upon applicable shipping terms. Customer contracts generally do not include more than one performance obligation. Sale of intellectual property: Revenue is generated from the sale of intellectual property that the Company has developed. For each licensing agreement for intellectual property, the promise to deliver a license that grants the customer the right to use the intellectual property is considered to be a distinct performance obligation. Revenue from intellectual property is recognized at a point in time upon delivery of documentation of the Company's intellectual property to the licensee. Intellectual property sold in 2021 consisted of intellectual property for salad kits, including the licensed know-how for recipes, packaging support, and branding kit development. Revenue by major product or service type is as follows: Year Ended December 31, 2021 2020 (in thousands) Revenue from sale of produce $ 551 $ 82 Revenue from sale of intellectual property 87 — Total Revenue $ 638 $ 82 The Company does not have unbilled receivable balances arising from transactions with customers. Payment terms are generally between 10 to 20 days. The Company does not capitalize contract inception costs, as contracts (which are in the form of purchase orders from customers) are one year or less and the Company does not incur significant fulfillment costs requiring capitalization. The Company has made the accounting policy election to exclude any sales and similar taxes from the transaction price. As a result, revenue is presented net of these taxes. |
Research and Development | Research and Development Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation to employees engaged in research and development activities, including salaries, and related benefits, in addition to related overhead (including depreciation, utilities and other related allocated expenses) as well as supplies and services related to the development of the Company’s growing process. Local Bounti’s research and development efforts are focused on development of the Company’s process utilizing its CEA facility. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all equity-based awards made to employees, directors, and non-employees, based on estimated fair values recognized over the requisite service period in accordance with ASC 718, Stock-Based Compensation |
Advertising | Advertising Advertising expenses are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred advertising expenses of $703 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2021. Advertising expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were not material. Advertising expenses are included in "Selling, general and administrative" expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Under this method, deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for income tax purposes and operating losses carried forward, measured by applying tax rates based on currently enacted tax laws. Valuation allowances are calculated, when necessary, to reduce the net deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Changes in the valuation allowances occurring in subsequent periods are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognizes uncertain tax positions based upon its estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due when such estimates are more likely than not to be sustained. Uncertain income tax positions are not recognized if there is less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. |
Concentrations of Risk and Significant Customers | Concentrations of Risk and Significant Customers Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents accounts with financial institutions which management believes to be of high-credit quality. The Company is exposed to risk in the event of default by these financial institutions or the issuers of these securities to the extent the balances are in excess of amounts that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company’s receivables are derived from revenue earned from customers located in the United States. The Company provides credit to its customers in the normal course of business and requires no collateral to secure accounts receivable. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts related to estimated credit losses. Significant customers are those customers who represent 10% or more of total revenue during the year or 10% or more of net accounts receivable at the balance sheet date. At December 31, 2021, there were four significant customers that accounted for approximately 81% of the Company's accounts receivable. For the year ended December 31, 2021, four individual customers represented more than 10% of total revenue. In aggregate, these four customers represented approximately 82% of the Company's revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021. |
Contingencies | Contingencies Loss contingencies (other than income tax-related contingencies) arise from actual or possible claims and assessments and pending or threatened litigation that may be brought against the Company by individuals, governments or other entities. Based on the Company's assessment of loss contingencies at each balance sheet date, a loss is recorded in the financial statements if it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. |
Segment Reporting | Segment ReportingThe Company has a single operating and reportable segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Co-Chief Executive Officers, who review financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance, and allocating resources. |
Emerging Growth Company | Emerging Growth Company Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The Company qualifies as an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act, and therefore intends to take advantage of certain exemptions from various public company reporting requirements, including delaying adoption of new or revised accounting standards until those standards apply to private companies. The effective dates shown below reflect the election to use the extended transition period. |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2021, the FASB issued 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, which clarifies the accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (e.g. warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of the ASU will have on the Company’s accounting of its debt and warrants. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liability and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The standard reduces the number of models used to account for convertible instruments, removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and requires the if-converted method for calculation of diluted earnings per share for all convertible instruments. The standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2022 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which amends the guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost and available for sale debt securities. For assets held at amortized cost, the amendment eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current U.S. GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2023 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements. |
