2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information and include the accounts of the Company and entities consolidated under the variable interest and voting models. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted.

 

In the opinion of management, these financial statements contain all material adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. Operating results for the three months ended  March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2024.

 

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, and the related notes included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 2023, which was filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024 (“Annual Report”).

 

The Company's significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report. There have been no significant changes to these policies during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

 

Comparative Data

 

Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassed to conform to the current period presentation, including:

 

 The reclassification of gain (loss) on earn-out and warrant liabilities to be included in other income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
 The reclassification of interest income, net to be included in other income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and the amounts of revenue and expenses reported for each of the periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for the determination of standalone selling price for revenue recognition, allowance of doubtful accounts, deferred contract costs, valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, income taxes and related reserves, stock-based compensation, purchase price in a business combination, and earn-out liabilities. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties. 

 

Foreign Currency

 

Transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in other income, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Transaction losses totaled $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and $0.3 million for the three months ended  March 31, 2023.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company maintains cash with several high credit-quality financial institutions. The Company considers its investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. These investments are not subject to significant market risk. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank accounts which, at times, exceed the federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company maintains cash balances used in operations at entities based in countries that impose regulations that limit the ability to transfer cash out of the country. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s cash balances at these entities were $9.1 million and $13.1 million, respectively. For purposes of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, cash includes all amounts in the condensed consolidated balance sheets captioned cash and cash equivalents.

 

Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets

 

The prepaid expenses balances as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were $6.0 million and $7.6 million, respectively.

 

Goodwill

 

No events or circumstances changed since the acquisitions that would indicate that the fair value of our reporting unit is below its carrying amount. No impairment was deemed necessary as of March 31, 2024 or  December 31, 2023.

 

Deferred Contract Costs

 

We defer sales commissions that are considered to be incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining or renewing SaaS, term license and support, services, perpetual license and maintenance contracts. Changes in the anticipated period of asset benefit or the average renewal term are recognized on a prospective basis upon occurrence. 

 

Amortization of deferred contract costs of $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and $4.2 million for the three months ended  March 31, 2023, is included as a component of sales and marketing expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Deferred contract costs recognized as a contract asset on our balance sheet were $52.6 million and $54.7 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company derives revenue from four primary sources: SaaS, term license and support, services, and maintenance. Services include installation services, training and other consulting services.

 

Term license revenue recognized at point in time was $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and $5.9 million for the three months ended  March 31, 2023.

 

Accounts receivable, net is inclusive of accounts receivable, and current unbilled receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. We record an unbilled receivable when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing. We have a well-established collection history from our direct and indirect sales. We periodically evaluate the collectability of our accounts receivable and provide an allowance for doubtful accounts as necessary, based on the age of the receivable, expected payment ability, and collection experience. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the allowance for doubtful accounts was not material.

 

We record deferred revenue in the condensed consolidated balance sheets when cash is collected or invoiced before revenue is earned. Deferred revenue as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $122.6 million and $129.3 million, respectively. Revenue recognized that was included in deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period was $46.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

(1) Includes long-term unbilled receivables. 

 

There were no significant changes to the Company’s contract assets or liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023 outside of its sales activities.

 

As of March 31, 2024, transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations, which includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods, was $309.7 million, of which $254.1 million is related to SaaS and term license and support revenue. We expect to recognize approximately 61% of the total transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations over the next twelve months and the remainder thereafter.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation represents the cost related to stock-based awards granted to employees. To date, we have issued both stock options and restricted stock units. The Company measures stock-based compensation cost at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award and recognizes the cost ratably over the requisite service period, net of actual forfeitures in the period.

 

We estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The Black-Scholes model requires highly subjective assumptions in order to derive the inputs necessary to calculate the fair value of stock options. To estimate the expected term of stock options, the Company considers contractual terms of the options, including the vesting and expiration periods, as well as historical option exercise data and current market conditions to determine an estimated expected term. The Company’s historical experience is too limited to be able to reasonably estimate an expected term. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of a group of peer entities. Dividend yields are based upon historical dividend yields. Risk-free interest rates are based on the implied yields currently available on U.S. Treasury zero coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected term.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
