Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2022 Annual Recurring Revenue, page 45 1. You disclose that annual recurring revenue ("ARR"), defined as approximate annualized value of our customer recurring contracts as of the measurement date, is an operating metric used to measure the health of your business. We also note that subscription revenue appears to include on-premises term-based license revenue, for which revenue is recognized at a point-in-time. Please expand your disclosure to address the following and advise us. Clarify how the up-front revenue received from term licenses is factored into your ARR calculation. Address whether you annualize revenue recognized or invoiced amounts. Clarify whether ARR reflects any actual or anticipated reductions of revenue due to contract non-renewals or cancellations, and discuss any limitations present as a result. Disclose the renewal rates for subscription arrangements for each period presented to Jorge Martell OneSpan Inc. May 26, 2023 Page 2 support your assumptions. Describe how ARR differs from GAAP revenue and specifically address the timing of revenue recognition related to the license performance obligation. Provide us with your proposed disclosure responsive to the concerns noted above. Refer to SEC Release 33-10751. Key Business Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures Adjusted EBITDA, page 46 2. We note the adjustment for Long-term incentive compensation in the table that reconciles net loss as reported on your consolidated statements of operations to non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA. We also note your disclosure on page 36 that "Long-term incentive plan compensation expense includes both cash and stock-based incentives." Regarding the cash compensation included in the adjustment, please revise or advise us how you determined it would be appropriate to exclude normal, recurring, cash operating expenses necessary to operate your business from a non-GAAP performance measure such as Adjusted EBITDA.
