Business & Consumer Services: Crypto assets (ASU 2023-08)

In 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. The guidance addresses the accounting and disclosure requirements for certain crypto assets and requires entities to subsequently measure certain crypto assets at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in net income in each reporting period. In addition, entities are required to provide additional disclosures about the holdings of certain crypto assets. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim reporting periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2025 with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The guidance is intended to further standardize income tax disclosures primarily related to the presentation of the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information on our financial statements and disclosures. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We adopted this guidance prospectively in the fourth quarter of 2025 with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The guidance is intended to improve certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of internally developed software costs specific to website development. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. We have elected to early adopt the standard effective January 1, 2026, using the retrospective transition method, which required us to recast each prior reporting period presented consistent with the new standard.

The most significant impact of the standard relates to the capitalization of product development cost for our Marketplace platforms. Under the new standard, due to the iterative and agile nature of our product development,

we have determined that significant development uncertainty generally persists until the software is deployed, or within a short period prior to deployment. Consequently, we expect substantially all product development costs related to the Company’s Marketplace platforms would be expensed as the probable-to-complete threshold would not have been met.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets . This amended guidance requires fair value measurement of certain crypto assets each reporting period, with the changes in fair value reflected in net income. The amendments also require disclosures of the name, fair value, units held, and cost basis for each significant crypto asset held and annual reconciliations of crypto asset holdings. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2024. We adopted this guidance effective as of January 1, 2025. We have applied the amendments of this guidance as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

(Unaudited)

In January 2025, the SEC released Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 122 rescinding SAB No. 121, which required an entity to record a liability to reflect its obligation to safeguard the crypto assets held for its platform users with a corresponding asset and required disclosures related to the entity’s safeguarding obligations. SAB No. 122 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and is required to be applied on a fully retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this guidance as of March 31, 2025 and derecognized the crypto asset safeguarding liability and corresponding safeguarding asset on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024. Additionally, we derecognized the associated deferred tax asset and liability as of December 31, 2024. The adoption of this guidance did not impact our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss), comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity or cash flows.

The following table presents the effects of the changes on the presentation of our condensed consolidated balance sheet:

CASH FLOWS FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES

As discussed in Note 2, “New Accounting Pronouncements”, the Company adopted ASU No. 2023-08, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets” during the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, which requires entities to measure crypto assets that meet specific criteria at fair value. Prior to the adoption of ASU No. 2023-08 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company held the Canton Coins on its Balance Sheet at their cost basis, which was immaterial, for investment purposes and to pay any fees associated with its Canton Network activity. During the first quarter of 2026, the Company began converting the coins to cash nearly immediately after they were earned.

The cost basis of the Canton Coins received is initially recorded at fair value on the date of receipt as a component of Other non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Revenue on the Statements of Earnings within the Company’s GTO reportable segment. Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, in accordance with ASU No. 2023-08, the Canton Coins are then remeasured to fair market value at the end of each reporting period, through an adjustment to unrealized gain/(loss), included as a component of Other non-operating income (expenses), net on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings within Corporate and Other. The Company employs the specific identification method to determine the cost basis of the Canton Coins sold for the computation of gains and losses on their disposal or sale. Realized gains (losses) on sale of Canton Coins, if applicable, are included as a component of Other non-operating income (expenses), net in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings within Corporate and Other.
