Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our accounting policies are discussed in detail in the footnotes to our financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year endedDecember 31, 2022 . However, we consider our critical accounting policies to be those related to revenue recognition, allowance of doubtful accounts and impairment of intangible asset and goodwill. Our critical estimates include estimates used to review the Company's goodwill impairments and estimations of recoverability for intangible asset. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
