The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates   Business   Marketo, Inc. (Marketo or the Company) was incorporated in the state of California on January 20, 2006. The Company was reincorporated in the state of Delaware in 2010. The Company operates from its headquarters in San Mateo, California and has operating subsidiaries in Ireland and Australia.   Marketo is a provider of a cloud-based marketing software platform that enables organizations to engage in modern relationship marketing. The Company’s software platform is designed to enable the effective management, optimization and analytical measurement of marketing activities, enabling organizations to acquire new customers more efficiently, build stronger relationships with existing customers, improve sales effectiveness and drive faster revenue growth. On this platform, the Company delivers an easy to use, integrated suite of advanced applications. The Company generally offers its services on an annual subscription basis with quarterly or annual payment terms.   Initial Public Offering   On May 17, 2013, the Company closed its initial public offering (IPO) whereby 6,968,435 shares of common stock were sold to the public, including the underwriters’ overallotment option of 908,926 shares of common stock and 309,509 shares of common stock sold by selling stockholders, at a price of $13.00 per share. In addition, the Company sold 500,000 shares of common stock to funds affiliated with Battery Ventures, in a concurrent private placement, at a price of $13.00 per share. The Company received aggregate proceeds of approximately $87.0 million from the IPO and concurrent private placement, net of underwriters’ discounts and commissions, but before deduction of offering expenses of approximately $3.5 million. Upon the closing of the IPO, all shares of the Company’s outstanding convertible preferred stock automatically converted into 25,876,142 shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had 37,002,877 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.   Basis of Presentation   The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company reflect all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring in nature) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods presented. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarter or for the entire year ending December 31, 2013. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).   These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and related notes presented in the Company’s final prospectus filed with the SEC on May 17, 2013 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933. There have been no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies from those that were disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 included in the Company’s final prospectus for its IPO.   Use of Estimates   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Such management estimates and assumptions include the estimated selling price for the various elements in our customer contracts, the allowance for doubtful accounts, amounts collectible for sales tax, the fair value of common stock, stock-based compensation expense, useful lives of intangible assets and the valuation of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the financial statements and affect the results of operations reported in future periods.   Recent Accounting Pronouncements   In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The amendments require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. This new accounting pronouncement is effective for interim and fiscal reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted this standard during the first quarter of 2013. The adoption of this standard expanded the consolidated financial statement footnote disclosures, however there were no amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income in any period presented. </div>falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaThe entire disclosure for the organization, consolidation and basis of presentation of financial statements disclosure, and significant accounting policies of the reporting entity.
