Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

11. Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates earnings per share using a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to stockholders of the Company by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding without the consideration for potential dilutive shares of common stock. Diluted earnings per share represents basic earnings per share adjusted to include the potentially dilutive effect of performance stock units, restricted stock units, public and private placement warrants, the employee stock purchase plan and stock options. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the potential dilutive shares of common stock for the period determined using the treasury stock method. During periods of net loss, diluted loss per share is equal to basic loss per share because the antidilutive effect of potential common shares is disregarded.

The following is a reconciliation of basic and diluted net earnings per common share:

The Company had 18,578,321 warrants to purchase Class A common stock at $11.50 per share outstanding at March 31, 2024 and 2023, which have been excluded in the calculation of diluted earnings per common share, as the weighted average market price of the common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 did not exceed the exercise price of the warrants.

In accordance with the treasury method the weighted average shares outstanding assuming dilution include the incremental effect of stock-based awards, except when such effect would be antidilutive. Stock-based awards of 20.2 million weighted-average shares were outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2024, but were not included in the computation of diluted (loss) earnings per common share because the net loss position of the Company made them antidilutive. Stock-based awards of 2.2 million weighted-average shares were outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2023, but were not included in the computation of diluted loss per common share because the net loss

position of the Company made them antidilutive. In addition, PSUs related to 4.8 million shares assuming achievement of the Target Goals were outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2023, but were not included in the computation of diluted loss per common share attributable, as the performance targets were not yet met during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Stock-Based Compensation

10. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has issued nonqualified stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and performance restricted stock units (“PSUs”) under the Advantage Solutions Inc. 2020 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”). The Company’s restricted stock units and performance restricted stock units, as described below, are expensed based on the fair value at the grant date. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense and equity-based compensation expense associated with the Common Series C Units of Karman Topco L.P. as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands)	2024			2023
Restricted stock-based unit awards	$	3,136		$	6,938

Tax benefit		(929	)		(2,001	)
Total stock-based compensation expense included in net income	$	8,149		$	11,093

Performance Restricted Stock Units

PSUs are subject to the achievement of certain performance conditions based on the Company’s revenues (“PSU Revenues”) and Adjusted EBITDA (“PSU EBITDA”) targets in the respective measurement period and the recipient’s continued service to the Company. The PSUs are scheduled to vest over a three-year period from the date of grant and may vest from 0% to 150% of the number of shares set forth in the table below. The number of PSUs earned shall be adjusted to be proportional to the partial performance between the Threshold Goals, Target Goals and Maximum Goals. Details for each aforementioned defined term for each grant have been provided in the table below.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Compensation Committee determined that the achievement of the performance objectives applicable to the 2023 PSU EBITDA and 2023 PSU Revenues objectives were 150% of Target Goals. The value of these PSU awards above the Target Goals remain subject to additional performance requirements (i.e., the above target performance must be maintained in 2024 and 2025, respectively) and service-based vesting conditions. The performance period for those PSU awards up to the Target Goals ended on December 31, 2023, but remain subject to service-based vesting conditions.

The fair value of PSU grants was equal to the closing price of the Company's stock on the date of the applicable grant. The maximum potential expense if the Maximum Goals were met for these awards has been provided in the table below. Recognition of expense associated with performance-based stock is not permitted until achievement of the performance targets are probable of occurring. The measurement period is based on the twelve months of the respective fiscal year.


Measurement Period	Number of Shares Threshold		Number of Shares Target		Number of Shares Maximum		Weighted Average Fair Value per Share		Maximum Remaining Unrecognized Compensation Expense		Weighted-average remaining requisite service periods

Outstanding at March 31, 2024		7,278,690		$	2.22

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs are subject to the recipient’s continued service to the Company. RSUs are generally scheduled to vest over three years and are subject to the provisions of the agreement under the Plan.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the following activities involving RSUs occurred under the Plan:


	Number of RSUs			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding at January 1, 2024		18,238,623		$	2.92
Granted		32,358		$	3.84
Distributed		(4,763,404	)	$	3.64
Forfeited		(1,500,143	)	$	2.77
Outstanding at March 31, 2024		12,007,434		$	2.65

As of March 31, 2024, the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs amounted to $23.0 million, net of forfeitures, which is expected to be amortized over the weighted-average remaining requisite service periods of 1.9 years.

Stock Options

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the following activities involving stock options occurred under the Plan:


	Stock Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price
Outstanding at January 1, 2024		17,375,000	$	6.00
Granted		—	$	—
Forfeited		—	$	—
Cancelled/Expired		—	$	—
Outstanding at March 31, 2024		17,375,000	$	6.00

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $5.1 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options, net of related forfeiture estimates, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.7 years. The weighted average remaining contractual term of all options outstanding as of March 31, 2024 was 8.7 years. The intrinsic value of all outstanding options as of March 31, 2024 was $10.6 million based on the market price of the Company's common stock of $4.33 per share. There were no options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

7. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rates were 21.8% and 15.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate is based upon the estimated income or loss before taxes for the year, by jurisdiction, and adjusted for estimated permanent tax adjustments. The fluctuation in the Company’s effective tax rate was primarily due to a difference in projected book income/loss used in the annual effective tax rate, the application of the windfall of $0.7 million of stock based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to a $2.3 million

shortfall for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and the release of the valuation allowance of $1.1 million related to one of the Company’s investments for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

The income tax expense from discontinued operations was $12.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, while the income tax benefit from discontinued operations was $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was impacted primarily by the sale of the company’s foodservice businesses. The income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily the result of pre-tax loss.

- Definition

Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Advantage Solutions Inc. (the “Company”) is a provider of outsourced solutions to consumer goods companies and retailers. The Company’s Class A common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “ADV” and warrants to purchase the Class A common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “ADVWW”.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet at that date and does not include all the disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair statement of the results as of March 31, 2024 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 have been reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the related footnotes thereto. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected during the remainder of the current year or for any future period.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company determined that certain businesses that have been disposed of and businesses classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2024 met the criteria for discontinued operations presentation. For all periods presented, the operating results associated with the businesses disposed of and classified as held for sale have been reclassified into net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes and net income (loss) from discontinued operations attributable to non-controlling interest in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The assets and liabilities associated with these businesses have been reflected as current and long-term assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the Cash flows from the Company’s discontinued operations are presented in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for all periods presented Refer to Note 2—Held for Sale, Divestitures and Discontinued Operations for additional information on the Company’s assets and liabilities classified as held for sale and the Company's discontinued operations.

Certain prior period balances related to the Company's reportable segments and discontinued operations have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements are presented on a continuing operations basis unless otherwise noted. Refer to Note 8—Segments for additional information on the Company’s reportable segments. Refer to Note 2—Held for Sale, Divestitures and Discontinued Operations for additional information on the Company’s discontinued operations.

Reportable Segments

Effective January 1, 2024, Advantage Solutions Inc. revised its reportable segments to align with the Company's business strategy, and the manner in which the Chief Executive Officer, the Company's chief operating decision maker, assesses performance and makes decisions regarding the allocation of resources for the Company. The Company’s revised operating and reportable segments consist of Branded Services, Experiential Services, and Retailer Services. This change had no impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss, and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity. Prior period segment results have been reclassified to reflect the Company’s new reportable segments on a continuing operations basis. Refer to Note 8—Segments for additional information on the Company’s reportable segments.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired in an acquisition. The Company tests for impairment of goodwill at the reporting unit level. The Company generally combines components that have similar economic characteristics, nature of services, types of clients, distribution methods and regulatory environment. In connection with the Company’s reorganization and the associated change in operating segments, the Company reassessed its reporting units and concluded that it has five reporting units (Branded Services, Branded Agencies, Experiential Services, Merchandising and Retailer Agencies). As a result, the Company performed the required impairment assessments directly before and immediately after the change in reporting units as of January 1, 2024. The assets and liabilities were reassigned to the applicable reporting units and allocated goodwill using the relative fair value approach. The estimated fair value of the underlying reporting units was determined based on a combination of the income and market approaches. The income approach utilizes estimates of discounted cash flows for the underlying business, which requires assumptions for growth rates, EBITDA margins, terminal growth rate, discount rate, and incremental net working capital, all of which require significant management judgment. The market approach applies market multiples derived from historical earnings data of selected guideline publicly traded companies that are first screened by industry group and then further narrowed on the reporting units' business descriptions, markets served, competitors, EBITDA margins and revenue size. The Company compared a weighted average of the output from the income and market approaches to compute the fair value of the reporting units. The assumptions in the income and market approach are based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level three measurements within the fair value hierarchy.

In conjunction with the tests performed as of January 1, 2024, each of the fair values for the reporting units tested was in excess of its carrying amount. The fair values of the Branded Agencies and Experiential Services reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values by less than 20%. As of March 31, 2024, there were no indicators of goodwill impairment.

Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized but tested annually, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, for impairment or more often if events occur or circumstances change that would create a triggering event. Prior to the segment change, the Company went to market with the Advantage Trade Name being specifically used and assessed for impairment in the Sales and Marketing businesses. As a result of the change in the Company's reportable segments effective as of January 1, 2024, the Company determined, based on the change in the planned use of the Advantage Trade Name intangible asset, that the Advantage Trade Name should be considered an entity-wide asset for reporting and impairment testing purposes. As of January 1, 2024, the Company concluded there was a triggering event for an interim impairment assessment due to the change in unit of account of the indefinite-lived intangibles. Based on the interim impairment assessment, the estimated fair values exceeded their carrying values, thus no impairment was recorded.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the client in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for such goods or services. Substantially all of the Company’s contracts with clients involve the transfer of a service to the client, which represents a performance obligation that is satisfied over time because the client simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services provided. In most cases, the contracts provide for a performance obligation that is comprised of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer (i.e., distinct days of service). For these contracts, the Company allocates the ratable portion of the consideration based on the services provided in each period of service to such period.

Revenues related to the Branded Services segment are primarily recognized in the form of commissions, fee-for-service and cost-plus fees for providing headquarter relationship management, execution of merchandising strategies and omni-commerce marketing services.

Revenues within the Branded Services segment are further disaggregated between brokerage services, branded merchandising services, omni-commerce marketing services, and revenues related to the Company's international joint venture (prior to the deconsolidation during fiscal year 2023). Brokerage services revenues are primarily outsourced

sales and services for branded consumer goods manufacturers at retailer headquarters, in-store and online. Branded merchandising services relate to merchandising in-store and online for branded consumer goods manufacturers. Omni-commerce marketing services primarily relate to digital and field marketing services.

Experiential Services segment revenues are primarily recognized in the form of fee-for-service and cost-plus fees for providing in-store, digital sampling and demonstrations, where the Company manages highly customized, large-scale sampling programs for leading brands and retailers.

Retailer Services segment revenues are primarily recognized in the form of commissions, fee-for-service and cost-plus fees for providing consulting services related to private brand development, the execution of merchandising strategies and marketing strategies within retailer locations, including retail media networks and analyzing shopper behavior.

Revenues within the Retailer Services segment are further disaggregated between advisory services, retailer merchandising services and agency services to retailers. Advisory services primarily consist of consulting services related to private brand development. Retailer merchandising services primarily relate to the execution of merchandising strategies. Agency services primarily consist of providing marketing strategies within retail locations.

Disaggregated revenues were as follows:

Contract liabilities represent deferred revenues, which are cash payments that are received in advance of the Company’s satisfaction of the applicable obligation and are included in Deferred revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred revenues are recognized as revenues when the related services are performed for the client. Revenues recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2024 included in Deferred revenues as of December 31, 2023 were $13.3 million. Revenues recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2023 included in Deferred revenues as of December 31, 2022 were $12.8 million.

Accounting Standards Recently Issued but Not Yet Adopted by the Company

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires entities to expand their existing income tax disclosures, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The standard is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2025, with early adoption permitted. The new standard is expected to be applied prospectively, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires entities to disclose incremental segment information on an annual and interim

basis, including significant segment expenses and measures of profit or loss that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). The standard is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2024 and interim periods within fiscal year 2025, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and expects to adopt the new standard using a retrospective approach.

In March 2024, the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted final climate-related disclosure rules under SEC Release Nos. 33-11275 and 34-99678, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors. The rules require disclosure of governance, risk management and strategy related to material climate-related risks as well as disclosure of material greenhouse gas emissions in registration statements and annual reports. In addition, the rules require presentation of certain material climate-related disclosures in the annual consolidated financial statements. On April 4, 2024, the SEC voluntarily stayed the effective date of the final rules pending completion of judicial review following legal challenges. The disclosure requirements will apply to the Company's fiscal year reporting beginning October 4, 2025, pending resolution of the stay. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the rules on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other new accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective were not applicable to the Company, did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements or are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segments

8. Segments

Effective January 1, 2024, the Company revised its reportable segments to align with the Company’s business strategy, and the manner in which the Chief Executive Officer, the Company's chief operating decision maker, assesses the performance and makes decisions regarding the allocation of resources for the Company. The Company’s revised reportable segments consist of Branded Services, Experiential Services, and Retailer Services. The reportable segments reported below are the segments of the Company for which separate financial information is available and for which segment results are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Through the Company's Branded Services segment, the Company offers capabilities in brokerage, branded merchandising and omni-commerce marketing services to consumer goods manufacturers. Through the Company's Experiential Services segment, the Company expands the reach of consumer brands and retailer products to convert shoppers into buyers through sampling and product demonstration programs executed in-store and online. Through the Company's Retailer Services segment, the Company provides retailers with end-to-end advisory, retailer merchandising, and agency expertise to drive sales. The assets and liabilities of the Company are managed centrally and are reported internally in the same manner as the consolidated financial statements; therefore, no additional information is produced or included herein. The Company and its chief operating decision maker evaluate performance based on revenues and operating (loss) income.

Discontinued operations are not included in the applicable reportable segments. Refer to Note 2—Held for Sale, Divestitures and Discontinued Operations.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had $1.1 billion of debt outstanding under the Term Loan Facility and $692.0 million of debt outstanding under the Notes (both as defined in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed March 1, 2024 for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”) with maturity dates of October 28, 2027 and November 15, 2028, respectively. The Term Loan Facility bears interest at a floating rate of Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 4.50% per annum, subject to an additional spread adjustment on SOFR ranging from 0.11% to 0.26%. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears at a rate of 6.50% per annum.

The Company was in compliance with all of its affirmative and negative covenants under the Term Loan Facility and Notes as of March 31, 2024. In addition, the Company is required to repay the principal under the Term Loan Facility in the greater amount of its excess cash flow, as such term is defined in the agreement governing the Term Loan Facility, or $13.3 million, per annum, in quarterly payments. The Company made the minimum quarterly principal payments of $3.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. No payments under the excess cash flow calculation were required in such periods. In May 2023 (the “Second Lien Amendment Effective Date”), the Company amended the Term Loan Facility to replace the U.S. Dollar LIBOR provisions with SOFR, effective June 30, 2023.

The Company voluntarily repurchased an aggregate of $51.0 million principal amount of its Senior Secured Notes during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The Company recognized a gain on the repurchase of the Senior Secured Notes of $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as a component of “Interest expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions. Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at a floating rate, which at the option may be either (i) a base rate or Canadian Prime Rate plus an applicable margin of 0.75%, 1.00%, or 1.25% per annum or (ii) Term SOFR or Alternative Currency Spread plus an applicable margin of 1.75%, 2.00% or 2.25% per annum. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.250% to 0.375% per annum in respect of the average daily unused commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility.

In April 2024, the Company's Term Loan Facility was further amended to (I) reduce the applicable interest rate margin on the term loan by 0.25% (a) from 4.50% to 4.25% for SOFR loans or (b) from 3.50% to 3.25% for base rate loans; and (II) reset the period for six months in which a 1.00% prepayment premium shall apply to any prepayment of the term loans in connection with certain events.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures fair value based on the prices that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are based on a three-tier hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in

active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis at fair value, categorized by input level within the fair value hierarchy.


	March 31, 2024

Interest Rate Cap Agreements

The Company had interest rate cap and collar contracts with an aggregate notional value of principal of $950.0 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 from various financial institutions to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements on variable rate credit facilities. The interest rate cap and collar contracts will mature on December 16, 2024 and April 5, 2026, respectively.

The fair value of the Company’s outstanding interest rate caps and collars of $22.5 million and $26.3 million, respectively, were included in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, with changes in fair value recognized as a component of “Interest expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a gain of $4.2 million and a gain of $1.9 million, respectively, within Interest expense, net, related to changes in the fair value of its derivative instruments.

Contingent Consideration Liabilities

During each reporting period, the Company measures the fair value of its contingent consideration liabilities by evaluating the significant unobservable inputs and probability weightings using Monte Carlo simulations. Any resulting decreases or increases in the fair value result in a corresponding gain or loss reported in “Selling, general, and administrative expenses” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

As of March 31, 2024, the maximum potential payment outcomes were $44.2 million. The following table summarizes the changes in the carrying value of estimated contingent consideration liabilities:


	March 31,
(in thousands)	2024			2023
Beginning of the period	$	18,472		$	20,334
Changes in fair value		689			4,292
Payments		(6,659	)		(1,572	)
End of the period	$	12,502		$	23,054

Long-term Debt

The following tables set forth the carrying values and fair values of the Company’s financial liabilities measured on a recurring basis, categorized by input level within the fair value hierarchy:

Litigation

The Company is involved in various legal matters that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Some of these legal matters purport or may be determined to be class and/or representative actions, or seek substantial damages, or penalties. The Company has accrued amounts in connection with certain legal matters, including with respect to certain of the matters described below. There can be no assurance, however, that these accruals will be sufficient to cover such matters or other legal matters or that such matters or other legal matters will not materially or adversely affect the Company’s financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.

The Company is involved in various litigation and arbitration matters, including purported class or representative actions with respect to matters arising under the California Labor Code and Private Attorneys General Act, and commercial disputes with clients, vendors and third-party sellers of businesses.

In April 2018, the Company acquired the business of Take 5 Media Group (“Take 5”). As a result of an investigation into that business in 2019 that identified certain misconduct, the Company terminated all operations of Take 5 in July 2019 and offered refunds to clients of collected revenues attributable to the period after the Company’s acquisition. The Company refers to the foregoing as the Take 5 Matter. The Company voluntarily disclosed to the United States Attorney’s Office and the Federal Bureau of Investigation certain misconduct occurring at Take 5. The Company intends to cooperate in this and any other governmental investigations that may arise in connection with the Take 5 Matter. In October 2022, an arbitrator made a final award in favor of the Company. The Company is actively pursuing the collection of this award in state court in Florida. The Company is currently unable to estimate if or when it will be able to collect any amounts associated with this arbitration. The Take 5 Matter may result in additional litigation against the Company, including lawsuits from clients, or governmental investigations, which may expose the Company to potential liability in excess of the amounts being offered by the Company as refunds to Take 5 clients. The Company is currently unable to determine the amount of any potential liability, costs or expenses (above the amounts already being offered as refunds) that may result from any lawsuits or investigations associated with the Take 5 Matter or determine whether any such issues will have any future material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. Although the Company has insurance covering certain liabilities, the Company cannot assure that the insurance will be sufficient to cover any potential liability or expenses associated with the Take 5 Matter.

Held for Sale, Divestitures and Discontinued Operations

2. Held for Sale, Divestitures and Discontinued Operations

Held for Sale

As of March 31, 2024, and December 31 2023, the Company classified certain assets and liabilities as held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheet, primarily relating assets and liabilities to be disposed of by sale (“disposal groups”) which are “held for sale” if their carrying amounts are principally expected to be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. Assets and liabilities to be disposed of by sale are classified as held for sale if the carrying amount is principally expected to be recovered through a sale rather than through continuing use. The classification occurs when the disposal group is available for immediate sale and the sale is probable. These criteria are generally met when an agreement to sell exists, or management has committed to a plan to sell the assets within one year. When the criteria are met and the proceeds from the sale will not be utilized to pay down long-term borrowings, the Company classifies these assets and liabilities held for sale as current. Disposal groups are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and long-lived assets included within the disposal group are not depreciated or amortized. The fair value of a disposal group, less any costs to sell, is assessed each reporting period it remains classified as held for sale and any remeasurement to the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell is reported as an adjustment to the carrying value of the disposal group. The Company determined that the disposal groups classified as held for sale met the criteria for classification as discontinued operations as discussed below. The assets and liabilities related to these businesses are included in the discontinued operations captions in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In May 2024, the Company entered into an agreement and sold a branded marketing agency that was held for sale as of March 31, 2024. The Company received approximately $42.5 million less estimated working capital adjustments. The Company is currently in the process of finalizing the accounting for this transaction and has determined that the gain or loss on this sale is impractical to report as of the date of this filing.

2023 Divestitures

In April 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to sell certain assets and liabilities classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2023 (collectively, the “2023 Divestitures”). The Company determined that the disposal groups classified as held for sale did not meet the criteria for classification as discontinued operations as of March 31, 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded a loss of $11.7 million to remeasure the disposal group to fair value plus costs to sell and a loss of $4.8 million loss on divestitures as a component of “Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

2024 Divestitures

On January 31, 2024, the Company sold a collection of foodservice businesses, previously classified as held for sale (as current assets) as of December 31, 2023 (collectively the 2024 “Divestitures”). As part of the sale, the foodservice businesses were combined with an entity owned by the buyer, with the Company receiving approximately $91.0 million, subject to working capital adjustments and an ongoing 7.5% interest in the combined business. The ongoing ownership interest represents a continuing involvement which the Company has determined represents an equity method investment. Upon the close of the transaction, the retained 7.5% interest was recognized at fair value of $8.4 million, valued using unobservable inputs (i.e., Level 3 inputs), primarily discounted cash flow. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a gain on the divestiture of the collection of foodservice businesses of $56.6 million reported as a component of “Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. Proceeds from the sale were classified as cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Effective February 1, 2024, the Company’s investment in the combined foodservice business is accounted for under the equity method of accounting, with the investment reported in “Investments in unconsolidated affiliates” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and an immaterial amount of equity income (loss) reported in “Income from unconsolidated investments” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other Comprehensive Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Transactions between the Company and the combined foodservice entity are considered to be related-party transactions subsequent to the divesture.

Discontinued Operations

The Company classifies a business that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale as a discontinued operation when the criteria prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205, Presentation of Financial Statements are met. While the 2023 Divestitures did not previously qualify for presentation as discontinued operations, the Company concluded that, in the aggregate, the sales of these businesses along with the 2024 Divestitures and businesses held for sale as of March 31, 2024 met the criteria for discontinued operations presentation during the three months ended March 31, 2024 (collectively, the “discontinued operations”), which are part of a single disposal plan. As a result, each of these businesses has been reclassified to discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Balance sheets for all periods presented.

As part of the agreements for the 2023 Divestitures and 2024 Divestitures, the Company has agreed to provide certain transitional services as defined within the respective Transition Services Agreement for a period of time after sale. Income and expenses related to these transitional services are immaterial and are reported in “Net loss from continuing operations” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Other Comprehensive Loss.

The following table presents the summarized balance sheets of discontinued operations.
