Notes to Financial Statements
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	2. Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include acquisition purchase price allocations, the fair value of goodwill and intangibles, the realization of deferred tax assets and liabilities, acquisition-related liabilities, fair value of stock-based compensation for stock options and performance share units granted, and assets and liabilities for pension and postretirement benefits.

Earnings Per Share Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income attributable to Verisk by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted EPS is similar to the computation of basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding, using the treasury stock method, if the dilutive potential common shares, including vested and nonvested stock options, nonvested restricted stock awards, nonvested restricted stock units, nonvested performance awards consisting of performance share units ("PSU"), and nonvested deferred stock units, had been issued. The following is a presentation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations for the three six June 30, 2022 2021 Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Numerator used in basic and diluted EPS: Net income attributable to Verisk $ 197.7 $ 154.0 $ 703.4 $ 322.6 Denominator: Weighted average number of common shares used in basic EPS 157,972,755 162,007,784 159,326,855 162,324,802 Effect of dilutive shares: Potential common shares issuable from stock options and stock awards 1,150,808 1,038,754 1,054,235 1,416,826 Weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares used in diluted EPS 159,123,563 163,046,538 160,381,090 163,741,628 The potential shares of common stock that were excluded from diluted EPS were 1,369,746 and 785,547 for the three June 30, 2022 2021 , and 1,387,713 and 866,055 for the six June 30, 2022 2021 Accumulated Other Comprehensive Losses The following is a summary of accumulated other comprehensive losses as of June 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 2022 2021 Foreign currency translation adjustment $ (627.8 ) $ (338.0 ) Pension and postretirement adjustment, net of tax (55.6 ) (56.6 ) Accumulated other comprehensive losses $ (683.4 ) $ (394.6 ) The before tax and after tax amounts of other comprehensive (loss) income for the three six June 30, 2022 2021 Before Tax Tax (Expense) Benefit After Tax For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 Foreign currency translation adjustment attributable to Verisk $ (218.8 ) $ — $ (218.8 ) Foreign currency translation adjustment attributable to noncontrolling interests (0.9 ) — (0.9 ) Foreign currency translation adjustment (219.7 ) — (219.7 ) Pension and postretirement adjustment before reclassifications 1.4 (0.5 ) 0.9 Amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service benefit reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive losses (1) (0.8 ) 0.3 (0.5 ) Pension and postretirement adjustment 0.6 (0.2 ) 0.4 Total other comprehensive loss $ (219.1 ) $ (0.2 ) $ (219.3 ) For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Foreign currency translation adjustment $ 16.5 $ — $ 16.5 Pension and postretirement adjustment before reclassifications 2.0 (0.6 ) 1.4 Amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service benefit reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive losses (1) (0.9 ) 0.3 (0.6 ) Pension and postretirement adjustment 1.1 (0.3 ) 0.8 Total other comprehensive income $ 17.6 $ (0.3 ) $ 17.3 Before Tax Tax (Expense) Benefit After Tax For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 Foreign currency translation adjustment attributable to Verisk $ (289.8 ) $ — $ (289.8 ) Foreign currency translation adjustment attributable to noncontrolling interests (1.5 ) — (1.5 ) Foreign currency translation adjustment (291.3 ) — (291.3 ) Pension and postretirement adjustment before reclassifications 2.7 (0.7 ) 2.0 Amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service benefit reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive losses (1) (1.5 ) 0.5 (1.0 ) Pension and postretirement adjustment 1.2 (0.2 ) 1.0 Total other comprehensive loss $ (290.1 ) $ (0.2 ) $ (290.3 ) For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Foreign currency translation adjustment $ 25.2 $ — $ 25.2 Pension and postretirement adjustment before reclassifications 4.1 (1.0 ) 3.1 Amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service benefit reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive losses (1) (2.0 ) 0.5 (1.5 ) Pension and postretirement adjustment 2.1 (0.5 ) 1.6 Total other comprehensive income $ 27.3 $ (0.5 ) $ 26.8 ___________ ( 1 These accumulated other comprehensive loss components, before tax, are included under "Cost of revenues" and "Selling, general and administrative" in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
