Related Party Transactions [Abstract]  
Related Party Transactions Related Party TransactionsCertain transactions between the Company and its affiliated entities are considered related party transactions. The Company’s affiliates include various entities owned by the same pre-IPO equityholders who hold ownership in the Company.
In conjunction with the IPO, the Company entered into the TRA, which provides for the payment by the Company to pre-IPO equityholders or their permitted transferees of certain U.S. federal, state, and local income tax savings as a result of the utilization (or deemed utilization) of certain existing tax attributes. For further information, see paragraph Income Tax Receivable Agreement in “Note 1 — Organization, Basis of Presentation and Consolidation, and Significant Accounting Policies.”
On July 12, 2018, the Company entered into an operating lease for office space with a company owned by a former owner of GIS, who, with his wife, continues to be the beneficial owner of approximately 13.8% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2022. The initial lease contained six options to renew for an additional year. For years one through three, a pre-payment of $6.0 million was made on July 12, 2018. Thereafter, the terms include optional renewals in years four through nine for $0.6 million each year. The initial lease expired on July 11, 2021, at which time the Company exercised an option to renew for an additional year. The Company entered into an amendment to the lease on June 30, 2022, which extended the lease term for an additional 3 years through June 30, 2025, for $0.5 million each year.
Transactions with related parties consist primarily of revenues from background searches provided to, and costs incurred for benefits and advisory services obtained from, such parties. Purchases from related parties are recorded in either selling, general and administrative expense or costs of services in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Both the revenue and purchase related party transactions are immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.
