Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms "our," "we," "us," and the "Company" refers to FLEETCOR Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Company prepared the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation. These adjustments consist of normal recurring accruals and estimates that impact the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. These financial statements were prepared using information reasonably available to us as of September 30, 2023 and through the date of this Quarterly Report. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s interim consolidated financial statements may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company’s operating environment changes. Actual results may differ from these estimates due to the uncertainty around the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the impact of changes to monetary policy, as well as other factors. Foreign Currency Translation Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at period-end. The related translation adjustments are recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss. Income and expenses are translated at the average monthly rates of exchange in effect during the year. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions of these subsidiaries are included in net income. The Company recognized foreign exchange gains and losses, which are recorded within other (income) expense, net in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 as follows (in millions): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Foreign exchange losses $ (6.4) $ (1.9) $ (6.2) $ (4.1) Foreign exchange losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 include a $5.6 million exchange loss incurred in connection with the Company's disposition of its Russia business upon conversion of the ruble-denominated proceeds to U.S. dollars. See Note 15 for additional information. The Company recorded foreign currency gains on long-term intra-entity transactions included as a component of foreign currency translation losses, net of tax, in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 as follows (in millions): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Foreign currency gains on long-term intra-entity transactions $ 31.0 $ 27.8 $ 43.4 $ 184.1 Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash Cash equivalents primarily consist of a) cash on hand, b) highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, such as certificates of deposit and treasury bills, and c) customer deposits repayable on demand without legal restrictions. Restricted cash primarily represents a) customer deposits repayable on demand held in certain geographies with legal restrictions, b) collateral received from customers for cross-currency transactions in our cross-border payments business, which are restricted from use other than to repay customer deposits and secure and settle cross-currency transactions, and c) collateral posted with banks for hedging positions in our cross-border payments business. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company disposed of its Russian net assets, including its cash balances. See Note 15 for additional information. Based on our assessment of the capital market conditions and related impact on our access to cash prior to the Russia disposition, we had reclassified all cash held at our Russia business of $215.8 million at December 31, 2022 to restricted cash. Financial Instruments - Credit Losses The Company accounts for financial assets' expected credit losses in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 326, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses". The Company’s financial assets subject to credit losses are primarily trade receivables. The Company utilizes a combination of aging and loss-rate methods to develop an estimate of current expected credit losses, depending on the nature and risk profile of the underlying asset pool, based on product, size of customer and historical losses. Expected credit losses are estimated based upon an assessment of risk characteristics, historical payment experience, and the age of outstanding receivables, adjusted for forward-looking economic conditions. The allowances for remaining financial assets measured at amortized cost basis are evaluated based on underlying financial condition, credit history, and current and forward-looking economic conditions. The estimation process for expected credit losses includes consideration of qualitative and quantitative risk factors associated with the age of asset balances, expected timing of payment, contract terms and conditions, changes in specific customer risk profiles or mix of customers, geographic risk, economic trends and relevant environmental factors. Revenue The Company provides payment solutions to our business, merchant, consumer and payment network customers. Our payment solutions are primarily focused on specific commercial spend or geographically defined categories, including Fleet, Corporate Payments, Lodging, Brazil and Other (stored value cards and e-cards). The Company provides solutions that help businesses of all sizes control, simplify and secure payment of various domestic and cross-border payables using specialized payment products. The Company also provides other payment solutions for fleet maintenance, employee benefits and long haul transportation-related services. Revenues from contracts with customers, within the scope of ASC 606, "Revenue Recognition", represent approximately 84% and 85% of total consolidated revenues, net, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. In its cross-border payments business, the Company writes foreign currency forward and option derivative contracts for its customers to facilitate future payments in foreign currencies. These contracts are accounted for in accordance with ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" and represent approximately 9% and 8% of total consolidated revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Additionally, the Company accounts for revenue from late fees and finance charges, in jurisdictions where permitted under local regulations, primarily in the U.S. and Canada in accordance with ASC 310, "Receivables". Such fees are recognized net of a provision for estimated uncollectible amounts, at the time the fees and finance charges are assessed and services are provided and represent approximately 4% and 5% of total consolidated revenues, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company's remaining revenue represents float revenue earned on invested customer funds in jurisdictions where permitted. Our revenue is generally reported net of the cost for underlying products and services purchased through our payment solutions. In this report, we refer to this net revenue as "revenue". Disaggregation of Revenues The Company provides its services to customers across different payment solutions and geographies. The Company's solutions have been merged to align with its segments.

Contract Liabilities Deferred revenue contract liabilities for customers subject to ASC 606 were $42.6 million and $57.7 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We expect to recognize approximately $27.6 million of these amounts in revenues within 12 months and the remaining $15.0 million over the next five years as of September 30, 2023. Revenue recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 that was included in the deferred revenue contract liability as of December 31, 2022 was approximately $31.9 million. Spot Trade Offsetting The Company uses spot trades to facilitate cross-currency corporate payments in its cross-border payments business. The Company applies offsetting to our spot trade assets and liabilities associated with contracts that include master netting agreements, as a right of setoff exists, which the Company believes to be enforceable. As such, the Company has netted spot trade liabilities against spot trade receivables at the counter-party level. The Company recognizes all spot trade assets, net in accounts receivable and all spot trade liabilities, net in accounts payable, each net at the customer level, in its Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair value. The following table presents the Company’s spot trade assets and liabilities at their fair value at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in millions): September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Gross Offset on the Balance Sheet Net Gross Offset on the Balance Sheet Net Assets Accounts Receivable $ 3,824.6 $ (3,647.4) $ 177.2 $ 2,409.8 $ (2,266.0) $ 143.8 Liabilities Accounts Payable $ 3,736.9 $ (3,647.4) $ 89.5 $ 2,332.5 $ (2,266.0) $ 66.5 Reclassifications and Adjustments Certain disclosures for prior periods have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation, including the breakout of derivatives assets and liabilities, net within the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, and the presentation of disaggregated revenues by solution to align with our revenues by segment presentation. |
