| Organization and Significant Accounting Policies | 1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies Advantage Solutions Inc. (the “Company”) is a provider of outsourced solutions to consumer goods companies and retailers. The Company’s Class A common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “ADV.” Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2025 was derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet at that date and does not include all the disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair statement of the results as of March 31, 2026 and for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 have been reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 and the related footnotes thereto. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected during the remainder of the current year or for any future period. Reverse Stock Split On March 26, 2026, the Company effected a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of its Class A common stock. In connection with the reverse stock split, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to reduce the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock and preferred stock by dividing the previously authorized share amounts by the reverse stock split ratio and applying a 1.5x multiplier. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split, and stockholders who otherwise would have been entitled to a fractional share received cash in lieu thereof. All share and per share amounts presented in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including shares underlying stock-based compensation equity awards, have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to the reverse stock split. The reverse stock split did not affect the per share par value of the Company’s Class A common stock. Retirement of Treasury Shares During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company retired 566,408 treasury shares that had been previously purchased under the 2021 Share Repurchase Program. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue when control of promised goods or services is transferred to the client in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for such goods or services. Substantially all of the Company’s contracts with clients involve the transfer of a service to the client, which represents a performance obligation that is satisfied over time because the client simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services provided. In most cases, the contracts provide for a performance obligation that is comprised of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer (i.e., distinct days of service). For these contracts, the Company allocates the ratable portion of the consideration based on the services provided in each period of service to such period. Revenues related to the Branded Services segment are primarily recognized in the form of commissions, fee-for-service and cost-plus fees for providing headquarter relationship management, execution of merchandising strategies and omni-commerce marketing services. Revenues within the Branded Services segment are further disaggregated between brokerage services, branded merchandising services and omni-commerce marketing services. Brokerage services revenues are primarily outsourced sales and services for branded consumer goods manufacturers at retailer headquarters, in-store and online. Branded merchandising services relate to merchandising in-store and online for branded consumer goods manufacturers. Omni-commerce marketing services primarily relate to digital and field marketing services. Experiential Services segment revenues are primarily recognized in the form of fee-for-service and cost-plus fees for providing in-store, digital sampling and demonstrations, where the Company manages highly customized, large-scale sampling programs for leading brands and retailers. Retailer Services segment revenues are primarily recognized in the form of commissions, fee-for-service and cost-plus fees for providing consulting services related to private brand development, the execution of merchandising strategies and marketing strategies within retailer locations, including retail media networks and analyzing shopper behavior. Revenues within the Retailer Services segment are further disaggregated between advisory services, retailer merchandising services and agency services to retailers. Advisory services primarily consist of consulting services related to private brand development. Retailer merchandising services primarily relate to the execution of merchandising strategies. Agency services primarily consist of providing marketing strategies within retail locations. Disaggregated revenues were as follows:
Deferred revenues represent cash payments that are received in advance of the Company’s satisfaction of the applicable obligation and are included in Deferred revenues in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Deferred revenues are recognized as revenues when the related services are performed for the client. Revenues recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026 that were included in Deferred revenues as of December 31, 2025 was $14.7 million. Revenues recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2025 included in Deferred revenues as of December 31, 2024 was $10.7 million. Accounting Standards Recently Issued but Not Yet Adopted by the Company In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”). ASU 2024-03 requires public entities to disclose additional information about specific expense categories in the notes to the financial statements on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

The amendments remove prescriptive development stages and require capitalization of software costs once management has authorized and committed to funding the project and it is probable the project will be completed and the software will be used as intended. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, including interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted and application on a prospective, modified retrospective, or retrospective basis.
