| Organization |
Organization Ryan Specialty Holdings, Inc., was formed as a Delaware corporation on March 5, 2021, for the purpose of completing an IPO and to carry on the business of the LLC. New Ryan Specialty, LLC, or New LLC, was formed as a Delaware limited liability company on April 20, 2021, for the purpose of becoming, subsequent to our IPO, an intermediate holding company between Ryan Specialty Holdings, Inc., and the LLC. The Company is the sole managing member of New LLC. New LLC is a holding company with its sole material asset being a controlling equity interest in the LLC. The Company operates and controls the business and affairs of the LLC through New LLC and, through the LLC, conducts its business. Accordingly, the Company consolidates the financial results of New LLC, and therefore the LLC, and reports the non-controlling interests of New LLC's Common Units on its consolidated financial statements. As the LLC is substantively the same as New LLC, for the purpose of this document, we will refer to both New LLC and the LLC as the “LLC”. As of September 30, 2023, the Company owned 45.4% of the outstanding LLC Common Units. |
| Basis of Presentation |
Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial information. These consolidated interim 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 filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year due to seasonality and other factors. In the opinion of management, the consolidated interim financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented. |
| Principles of Consolidation |
Principles of Consolidation The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries that it controls due to ownership of a majority voting interest or pursuant to variable interest entity (“VIE”) accounting guidance. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company, through its intermediate holding company New LLC, owns a minority economic interest in, and operates and controls the businesses and affairs of, the LLC. The LLC is a VIE of the Company and the Company is the primary beneficiary of the LLC as the Company has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the LLC’s economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses of, and receive benefits from, the LLC, which could be significant to the Company. Accordingly, the Company has prepared these consolidated financial statements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). ASC 810 requires that if an entity is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the VIE should be included in the consolidated financial statements of such entity. The Company's relationship with the LLC results in no recourse to the general credit of the Company and the Company has no contractual requirement to provide financial support to the LLC. The Company shares in the income and losses of the LLC in direct proportion to the Company's ownership percentage. |
| Use of Estimates |
Use of Estimates The preparation of the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereto requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and in the notes thereto. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as circumstances change or more information becomes available, which could affect the amounts reported and disclosed herein. |
