Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Description of Business

Quotient Technology Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or "Quotient"), is an industry leading digital media and promotions technology company that powers cohesive omnichannel brand-building and sales-driving marketing campaigns for advertisers and retailers to influence purchasing decisions throughout a shopper's path to purchase. These marketing campaigns are planned, delivered and measured using our technology platforms and data analytics tool. The Company's network includes the digital properties of retail partners and advertiser customers (also known as consumer packaged goods ("CPG") manufacturers or brands), social media platforms, its consumer brand Coupons.com and digital out-of-home ("DOOH") properties. This network provides the Company with proprietary and licensed data, including retailers’ in-store point-of-sale ("POS") shopper data, purchase intent and online behavior, and location intelligence. With such data powering its platforms, customers and partners use Quotient to leverage consumer data and insights, engage consumers via digital channels, and integrate marketing and merchandising programs to drive measurable sales results and consumer engagement.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, the information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed on March 1, 2022, as amended by its subsequent Form 10-K/A, Amendment No. 1, filed on April 29, 2022 (collectively, "Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended").

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year ending December 31, 2022 or for any other period.

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, that have had a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such management estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, collectability of accounts receivable, useful lives of intangible assets, estimates related to recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation, restructuring accruals, legal contingencies, deferred income tax assets and associated valuation allowances and distribution fee commitments. These estimates generally require judgments, may involve the analysis of historical and prediction of future trends, and are subject to change from period to period. Actual results may differ from the Company’s estimates, and such differences may be material to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity ("ASU 2020-06"). The guidance simplifies an issuer's accounting for convertible debt instruments and its application of the derivatives scope exception for contracts in its own entity. The guidance eliminates two of the three models in ASC 470-20 that require separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective approach. Therefore, the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are presented under the new standard, while the comparative periods presented are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting policy.

In connection with the adoption of this standard, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment of $38.7 million to retained earnings on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022. This adjustment was primarily driven by the derecognition of interest expense related to the accretion of the debt discount associated with the embedded conversion option recorded in the prior period as required under the legacy guidance. In addition, the Company reclassified $50.7 million and issuance costs of $1.6 million from additional paid-in-capital to convertible senior notes, net on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022. The reclassification was recorded in order to combine the two legacy units of account into a single instrument classified as a liability since the bifurcation of the instrument into two units of account is no longer required under the new standard. Under the new guidance, the Company will no longer incur interest expense related to the accretion of the debt discount associated with the embedded conversion option. The Company will use the if-converted method to calculate diluted EPS. If the Company makes an irrevocable election to settle the principal of the convertible senior notes in cash and the excess conversion spread in shares, the if-converted method will result in a reduced number of shares issued to reflect only the excess conversion. Since the Company had a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022, the convertible senior notes were determined to be anti-dilutive and therefore had no impact to basic or diluted net loss per share for the period as a result of adopting ASU 2020-06.

Revenue Recognition

The Company primarily generates revenue by providing digital media and promotions solutions to its customers and partners. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

•Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer

•Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

•Determination of the transaction price

•Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

•Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

The Company provides digital promotions, including digital coupons, and/or media programs to its customers, which consist of advertisers, retail partners and advertising agencies. The Company uses its proprietary technology platforms to create, target, deliver and analyze these programs for customers. The Company typically generates revenue, derived from customer use of these programs, on a cost-per-click, cost-per-impression, or cost-per-acquisition basis, and customers are typically billed monthly. Duration-based campaigns are generally billed prior to campaign launch.

The pricing of digital promotions programs typically includes both promotion setup fees and promotion campaign fees. Promotion setup fees are related to the creation of digital promotions and set up of the underlying campaign on Quotient’s proprietary platforms for tracking of the related clicks. The Company recognizes revenues

10

related to promotion setup fees over time, proportionally, on a per click basis, using the number of authorized clicks, per insertion order, commencing on the date of the first click. A click refers to the consumer's action of activating a digital promotion through the Company’s proprietary technology platforms by either saving it to a retailer’s loyalty account for automatic digital redemption, or printing it for physical redemption at a retailer. Promotion campaign fees are usually determined on a per click basis. The Company typically recognizes revenues for digital promotion campaign fees as clicks occur.

The Company also has a duration-based National Promotions offering, as part of its National Promotion business. This offering provides advertisers access to the Company’s proprietary platforms for a specific period of time (the campaign period) in exchange for a fixed fee. The Company provides a single service consisting of making the advertiser’s promotions available for use on its network each day during the campaign period, which generally is between seven and twenty-eight days. The Company has a stand-ready performance obligation that is satisfied over time; therefore, the Company recognizes revenue ratably over the campaign period.

The Company’s media programs enable advertisers and retailers to distribute digital media to promote their brands and products on its retailers’ websites, and mobile applications, and through a network of affiliate publishers and non-publisher third parties that display its media offerings on their websites or mobile applications. Pricing for media campaigns is usually determined on a cost-per-impression, cost-per-click or cost-per-acquisition basis. The Company recognizes revenue each time a digital media ad is displayed or each time a user clicks on the media ad displayed on the Company’s websites, mobile applications or on third-party websites.  

Gross Versus Net Revenue Reporting

In the normal course of business and through its distribution network, the Company delivers digital media and promotions on retailers’ websites through retailers’ loyalty programs, and on the websites of digital publishers. In these situations, the Company evaluates whether it is the principal (i.e., report revenues on a gross basis) or agent (i.e., report revenues on a net basis). The Company typically reports digital promotion and media advertising revenues for campaigns placed on third-party owned properties on a gross basis; that is, the amounts billed to its customers are recorded as revenues, and distribution fees paid to retailers or digital publishers are recorded as cost of revenues. The Company is the principal because it controls the digital promotion and media advertising inventory before it is transferred to its customers. The Company’s control is evidenced by its sole ability to monetize the digital coupon and media advertising inventory, being primarily responsible to its customers, having discretion in establishing pricing for the delivery of the digital promotions and media, or a combination of these.

In other cases (e.g., sponsored search and DOOH offerings), the Company reports revenues on a net basis, that is, the costs for digital advertising inventory and third-party data paid to suppliers are deducted from gross revenues to arrive at net revenues. The Company’s performance obligation in these arrangements is to provide the use of its platforms that enables customers to bid on real-time digital advertising inventory, use of data, and other add-on features in designing and executing their campaigns. The Company charges its customers a platform fee based on a percentage of the digital advertising inventory and data costs purchased through the use of its platforms. The platform fee is not contingent on the results of a digital media advertising campaign. The Company has determined that it’s an agent in these arrangements because it does not have control of the digital advertising inventory before it is transferred to the customer and does not set prices.

The Company also introduced retailer-specific promotion and media campaign offerings (either, or both, also known as "shopper" offerings). The Company has determined that it is an agent in these arrangements as the retailer is the customer, as the retailer controls the delivery of shopper promotion and media programs on its website, and as the retailer sets the pricing. The Company’s obligation in these arrangements is to provide use of its platforms to the retailers. The retailer determines how shopper promotions and media programs are executed through the Company’s platforms. Under these arrangements, the Company reports revenue on a net basis.

11

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

The Company’s contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. The Company determines its best estimate of its standalone selling prices based on its overall pricing objectives, taking into consideration market conditions and other factors, including the value of its contracts and characteristics of targeted customers.

Deferred Revenues

Deferred revenues primarily relate to cash received or billings to customers associated with promotion setup fees, promotion campaign fees and digital media fees that are expected to be recognized upon click, or delivery of media impressions, or campaign duration, which generally occur within the next twelve months. The Company records deferred revenues, including amounts which are refundable, when cash payments are received or become due in advance of the Company satisfying its performance obligations. The decrease in the deferred revenue balance for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is primarily driven by $17.1 million of recognized revenue, partially offset by cash payments of $11.6 million received or due in advance of satisfying the Company’s performance obligations.

The Company’s payment terms vary by the type and size of its customers. For certain products or services and customer types, we require payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer.

Disaggregated Revenue

The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by type of services (in thousands, unaudited). The majority of the Company’s revenue is generated from sales in the United States.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Promotion	$	50,162	$	69,614
Media	28,294		45,702
Total Revenue	$	78,456	$	115,316

 Practical Expedients and Exemptions

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which it recognizes revenue for an amount where it has the right to invoice for services performed.

Sales Commissions

The Company generally incurs and expenses sales commissions upon recognition of revenue for related goods and services, which typically occurs within one year or less. Sales commissions earned related to revenues for initial contracts are commensurate with sales commissions related to renewal contracts. These costs are recorded in sales and marketing expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

3. Fair Value Measurements

The fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

12

Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3—Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The Company’s fair value hierarchy for its financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows (in thousands):

	March 31, 2022
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Assets:
Cash equivalents:
Money market funds	$	105,014	—		—		$	105,014

Liabilities:
Contingent consideration related to acquisitions	—		—		—		—

Liabilities:
Contingent consideration related to acquisitions	—		—		22,275		22,275
Total	$	—	$	—	$	22,275	$	22,275

The valuation technique used to measure the fair value of money market funds includes using quoted prices in active markets. The money market funds have a fixed net asset value of $1.0.

The contingent consideration relates to the acquisitions of Elevaate Ltd. (“Elevaate”) and Ubimo Ltd. (“Ubimo”). The fair values of contingent consideration are based on the expected achievement of certain revenue targets as defined under the acquisition agreements and were estimated using an option pricing method with significant inputs that are not observable in the market, thus classified as a Level 3 instrument. The inputs included the expected achievement of certain financial metrics over the contingent consideration period, volatility and discount rate. The fair value of the contingent consideration is classified as a liability and is re-measured each reporting period. Refer to Note 6 for further details related to the acquisitions.

The Company recorded a charge of zero and $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021, respectively, for the re-measurement of the fair values of contingent consideration related to acquisitions, as a component of operating expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid $22.3 million related to Ubimo's achievement of financial metrics subject to contingent consideration during the measurement period ending December 31, 2021, and as a result, no liability existed as of March 31, 2022. Out of the total consideration paid, $5.7 million was originally measured and recorded on the acquisition date and $16.6 million was recorded subsequent to the acquisition date through changes in fair value of contingent consideration within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value Measurements of Other Financial Instruments

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the Company’s 1.75% convertible senior notes due 2022 was $192.0 million and $193.8 million, respectively. The fair value was determined based on a quoted price of the convertible senior notes in an over-the-counter market on the last trading day of the reporting period. Accordingly, these convertible senior notes are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Refer to Note 8 for additional information related to the Company’s convertible debt.

6. Acquisitions

Acquisition of Ubimo

On November 19, 2019, the Company acquired all outstanding shares of Ubimo, a leading data and media activation company.

The total acquisition consideration of $20.7 million consisted of $15.0 million in cash and contingent consideration of up to $24.8 million payable in cash with an estimated fair value of $5.7 million as of the acquisition date. The contingent consideration payout was based on Ubimo achieving certain financial metrics between the date of the acquisition through December 31, 2021. The acquisition date fair value was determined using an option pricing model. As of December 31, 2021, the date that the contingent consideration period ended, Ubimo achieved certain financial metrics. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid $24.7 million, of which $22.3 million related to contingent consideration and $2.4 million related to certain bonuses; and as a result, no liability existed as of March 31, 2022. Of the total $24.7 million that was paid, $5.7 million was classified within financing activity and the remaining $19.0 million was classified within operating activity on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Acquisition of Elevaate

On October 26, 2018, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of Elevaate, a sponsored search company for retail partners and CPG brands.

The total acquisition consideration of $13.3 million consisted of $7.2 million in cash and contingent consideration of up to $18.5 million payable in cash with an estimated fair value of $6.1 million as of the acquisition date. The contingent consideration payout was based on Elevaate achieving certain financial metrics between February 1, 2019 through January 31, 2021. The acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration was determined by using an option pricing model. The fair value of the contingent consideration was re-measured every reporting period. As of January 31, 2021, the date that the contingent consideration period ended, Elevaate achieved certain financial metrics. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company paid $9.0 million, of which $8.6 million related to contingent consideration and $0.4 million related to certain bonuses; and, as a result, no liability existed as of December 31, 2021. Of the total $9.0 million that was paid, $6.1 million was classified within financing activity and the remaining $2.9 million was classified within operating activity on the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

 Each of these acquisitions were accounted for as a business combination. Accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date when control was obtained. The Company expensed all transaction costs in the period in which they were incurred. The Company acquired various intangible assets resulting from these acquisitions, such as, customer relationships, vendor relationships, developed technologies and trade names. The fair value of the customer relationships was determined by using a

17

discounted cash flow model. The fair value of the vendor relationships was determined by using a cost approach. The fair value of developed technologies was determined by using the relief from royalty method or the with-and-without method. The fair value of trade names was determined by using the relief from royalty method. The excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill arising from the acquisitions are largely attributable to the synergies expected to be realized. None of the goodwill recorded from these acquisitions were deductible for income tax purposes.

For each of these transactions, the fair value of the consideration transferred and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was determined by the Company and in doing so management engaged a third-party valuation specialist to measure the fair value of identifiable intangible assets and obligations related to deferred revenue and contingent consideration. The estimated fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the relevant acquisition is based on management’s best estimates.

The following table summarizes the acquisition consideration and the related fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):

	Purchase Consideration		Net Tangible Assets Acquired/ (Liabilities Assumed)		Identifiable Intangible Assets		Goodwill		Goodwill Deductible for Taxes	(1) Acquisition Related Expenses

 As of March 31, 2022, the Company performed an analysis of the impact of recent events, including business and market disruption caused by COVID-19, on the fair values of its intangible assets, and determined that an impairment does not exist. However, there can be no assurance that intangible assets will not be impaired in future periods, and the Company will continue to monitor its operating results, cash flow forecasts and challenges from declines in current market conditions, as well as impacts of COVID-19, for future determinations regarding these intangible assets.

8. Debt Obligations

2017 Convertible Senior Notes

In November 2017, the Company issued and sold $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.75% convertible senior notes due December 2022 in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “notes”). The notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and bear interest at a fixed rate of 1.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on June 1, 2018. The total net proceeds from the debt offering, after deducting transaction costs, were approximately $193.8 million.  

The conversion rate for the notes is initially 57.6037 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $17.36 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events.

Holders of the notes may convert their notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding September 1, 2022, only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2018 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five-business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate for the notes on each such trading day; (3) if the Company calls any or all of the notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after September 1, 2022, holders may convert all or any portion of their notes at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date regardless of the foregoing conditions. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at its election. The Company intends to settle the principal amount of the notes with cash.

The Company may not redeem the notes prior to December 5, 2020. It may redeem for cash all or any portion of the notes, at its option, on or after December 5, 2020 if the last reported sale price of its common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending not more than three trading days preceding the date on which it provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. No sinking fund is provided for the notes.

20

If the Company undergoes a fundamental change prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

In accounting for the issuance of the notes, prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022, the Company separated the notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component of $149.3 million was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar debt instrument that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component of $50.7 million, representing the conversion option, was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the par value of the notes. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) was amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes at an effective interest rate of 5.8%.

Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022, the Company allocated the total debt issuance costs incurred of $6.2 million to the liability and equity components of the notes in proportion to the respective values. Issuance costs attributable to the liability component of $4.6 million were amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the contractual terms of the notes. Issuance costs attributable to the equity component of $1.6 million were netted with the equity component in additional paid-in capital.

Subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022, which the Company elected to adopt using the modified retrospective method, the Company removed the impact of recognizing the equity component of the notes (at issuance and subsequent accounting impact of additional interest expense from debt discount amortization). The cumulative effect of the accounting change as of January 1, 2022 was an increase to the carrying amount of the convertible notes of $10.4 million, an increase to beginning retained earnings of $38.7 million, and a reduction to additional paid-in capital of $49.1 million.

The net carrying amount of the liability component of the notes recorded in convertible senior notes, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets was as follows (in thousands):

	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Principal	$	200,000	$	200,000

ABL Credit Agreement

On November 17, 2021, the Company, as borrower, and certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, entered into a Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement (the "ABL Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association, and certain other financial institutions from time to time that may become parties to the agreement (the "Lenders").

The ABL Credit Agreement provides for an asset-based revolving credit facility (the "ABL Facility") for available borrowings up to $100.0 million with the actual amount dependent on a "borrowing base" number consisting of the sum of various categories of eligible accounts receivable (the lesser of such number and $100.0 million, the "Line Cap"). The ABL Facility matures and all outstanding amounts, if any, become due and

21

payable on November 17, 2026 ("fixed ABL maturity date"), except that the maturity date shall be accelerated to the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity of the Company’s outstanding 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Notes”), unless (i) the Notes are repaid in full or converted to equity at least 91 days prior to the maturity of the Notes, (ii) the Notes are refinanced and/or extended to a maturity date that is at least 91 days after the fixed ABL maturity date, or (iii) during the 91 day period prior, the Company has sufficient cash to repay the Notes in full, the Company meets a certain liquidity test after giving pro forma effect to the repayment to the Notes, and there is no event of default under the ABL Facility. The commitments of the Lenders under the ABL Facility will terminate and outstanding borrowings under the ABL Facility will mature on the fifth anniversary of the closing of the ABL Facility or sooner as described above.

The ABL Credit Agreement includes conditions to borrowings, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default customary for financings of this type and size. In the event of default, all obligations will be automatically due and payable and all commitments will terminate. The ABL Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio at all times. The ABL Credit Agreement limits the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, create liens on any assets, pay dividends or make certain restricted payments, consummate certain assets sales and merge, consolidate and/or sell or dispose of certain assets. The ABL Credit Agreement also requires that if the Company's Excess Availability (defined as the Line Cap less borrowed amounts or issued letters of credit) is less than the greater of (i) the Line Cap and (ii) $10.0 million, the Company will maintain a fixed coverage charge ratio of at least 1.00 to 1.00. In addition, the ABL Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, which may require the Company to pay an additional 2% interest on the outstanding loans under the ABL Credit Agreement. As set forth in the ABL Credit Agreement, borrowings under the ABL Facility initially will bear interest at a rate equal to, for BSBY Loans, the BSBY Rate plus the Applicable Margin or, for Base Rate Loans, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The Applicable Margin is determined based on average daily borrowing availability.

As of March 31, 2022, the borrowing base was $60.0 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no borrowings or repayments under the ABL Facility.

9. Stock-based Compensation

2013 Equity Incentive Plan

In October 2013, the Company adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”), which became effective in March 2014 and serves as the successor to the Company’s 2006 Stock Plan (the “2006 Plan”). Pursuant to the 2013 Plan, 4,000,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for grant, plus (1) any shares that were reserved and available for issuance under the 2006 Plan at the time the 2013 Plan became effective, (2) any shares that become available upon forfeiture or repurchase by the Company under the 2006 Plan and (3) any shares added to the 2013 Plan pursuant to the next paragraph.

Under the 2013 Plan, the Company may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based stock and units to employees, directors and consultants. The shares available will be increased at the beginning of each year by the lesser of (i) 4% of outstanding common stock on the last day of the immediately preceding year, or (ii) such number determined by the Board of Directors and subject to additional restrictions relating to the maximum number of shares issuable pursuant to incentive stock options. Under the 2013 Plan, both the ISOs and NSOs are granted at a price per share not less than 100% of the fair market value on the effective date of the grant. The Board of Directors determines the vesting period for each option award on the grant date, and the options generally expire 10 years from the grant date or such shorter term as may be determined by the Board of Directors.

Stock Options

There were no option grants during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Restricted Stock Units and Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units

The fair value of RSUs equals the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The RSUs are excluded from issued and outstanding shares until they are vested.

On March 1, 2021, the Company granted a total of 938,831 performance-based restricted stock units (“2021 PSU Awards”), under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, to certain executive leaders with a grant date fair value of $13.28. The PSU Award represents the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock upon meeting certain vesting conditions. The PSU Awards will vest in three years subject to the achievement of certain operating performance goals, stock performance goals and continued employment. The fair value of the PSU Award was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation. As of March 31, 2022, the Company performed an assessment and determined that the likelihood of achievement of certain operating performance goals was not deemed probable. As such, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, no compensation expense was recognized in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements related to the 2021 PSU Awards. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded $0.3 million in compensation expense in its condensed consolidated financial statements related to the 2021 PSU Awards.

On March 1, 2022, (“2022 Grant Date”), the Company granted a total of 1,171,494 performance-based restricted stock units (“2022 PSU Awards”), under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, to certain executive leaders with a grant date fair value of $4.82, $3.87 and $3.14, for each respective tranche. The PSU Award represents the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock upon meeting certain vesting conditions. The PSU Awards vest subject to the achievement of stock performance goals and the awardee being an employee at the time of vesting. Any unvested portion of the PSU award will be forfeited on the third anniversary of the 2022 Grant Date. The fair value of the PSU Award was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the expense recognized in its condensed consolidated financial statements related to the 2022 PSU Awards was $0.3 million.

The aggregate total fair value of options vested was $0.9 million and $1.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), which became effective in March 2014. Eligible employees can enroll and elect to contribute up to 15% of their base compensation through payroll withholdings in each offering period which is six months in duration, subject to certain limitations. The purchase price of the stock is the lower of 85% of the fair market value on (a) the first day of the offering period or (b) the purchase date.

Stock-based Compensation Expense

The following table sets forth the total stock-based compensation expense resulting from stock options, RSUs and ESPP shares included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Cost of revenues	$	532	$	423
Sales and marketing	891		1,255
Research and development	967		972
General and administrative	3,352		3,194
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	5,742	$	5,844

 

As of March 31, 2022, there was $53.7 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense, of which $4.6 million is related to stock options and ESPP shares, and $49.1 million is related to RSUs. The total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and ESPP shares as of March 31, 2022 will be amortized over a weighted-average period of 1.58 years. The total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs as of March 31, 2022 will be amortized over a weighted-average period of 2.68 years.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company capitalized $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense in projects in process as part of property and equipment, net on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Common Stock Repurchases

The Board of Directors previously approved programs for the Company to repurchase shares of its common stock. In February 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $50.0 million of its common stock from February 2021 through February 2022 (the "February 2021 Program"). During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock, nor did the Company repurchase any of its common stock thereafter. The Company terminated the February 2021 Program prior to its expiration.

10. Income Taxes

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $0.2 million for each respective period during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The provision for income taxes was primarily attributable to the Company’s foreign operations, amortization of tax deductible goodwill from prior acquisitions, and state taxes.

11. Net Loss Per Share

The computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share is as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

	Three Months Ended March 31,

Net loss	$	(26,306)	$	(13,414)
Weighted-average number of common shares    used in computing net loss per share, basic    and diluted	94,924		92,413
Net loss per share, basic and diluted	$	(0.28)	$	(0.15)

The outstanding common equivalent shares excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share for the periods presented because including them would have been antidilutive are as follows (in thousands):

	Three

	25,908	24,083

12. Leases

The Company has entered into operating leases primarily for office facilities. These leases have terms which typically range from 1 year to 10 years, and often include options to renew. These renewal terms can extend the lease term up to 6 years, and are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. These operating leases are included as operating lease right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The present value of the Company’s obligation to make lease payments are included in other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has entered into short-term leases primarily for office facilities with an initial term of twelve months or less, and a professional sports team suite with a 20-year term, which it uses for sales and marketing purposes. The effective lease term for the professional sports team suite is based on the cumulative days available for use throughout the 20-year contractual term, which is less than twelve months and therefore is classified as a short-term lease. As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s lease commitment of $5.4 million, relating to the professional sports team suite, expires in 2034, and does not reflect short-term lease costs. These leases are not recorded on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet due to the accounting policy election as discussed under Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

 All operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $1.5 million in total lease costs during each respective period, which is comprised of $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively, in operating lease costs for right-

26

of-use assets and $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in short-term lease costs related to short-term operating leases.

 Because the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. The Company has certain contracts for office facilities which may contain lease and non-lease components which it has elected to be treated as a single lease component due to the accounting policy election as discussed under Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company exited occupancy of its leased office space in San Francisco, California to align with its continued operational and cost optimization efforts. The Company has the ability and intent to sublease the office space for the remainder of the lease term. The Company determined that a triggering event had occurred that required an interim impairment assessment for certain of its long-lived and right-of-use assets.

The Company performed an interim impairment assessment in the first quarter of 2022. In measuring the estimated amount of long-lived and right-of-use asset impairment, the Company considered estimated future sublease income including the consideration of local real estate market conditions. The Company also factored the time to identify a tenant and to enter into an agreement. Based on a discounted cash flow analysis, the Company concluded that the carrying value of certain long-lived and right-of-use assets will not be recoverable. As such, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $6.1 million within general & administrative expenses on its condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Supplemental cash flow information related to operating leases was as follows (in thousands):

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Obligations

The Company has unconditional purchase commitments, primarily related to distribution fees, software license fees and marketing services, of $6.4 million as of March 31, 2022.

Some of our agreements with retailers include certain guaranteed distribution fees which, in some cases, may apply to multiple annual periods. If the adoption and usage of our platforms do not meet projections or minimums, these guaranteed distribution fees may not be recoverable and any shortfall may be payable by us at the end of the applicable period. We considered various factors in our assessment including our historical experience with the transaction volumes through the retailer and comparative retailers, ongoing communications with the retailer to increase its marketing efforts to promote the digital platform, as well as the projected revenues, and associated revenue share payments. For example, in 2020, the Company's efforts to implement, with Albertsons, one of the Company’s solutions resulted in multiple disputes being raised by each of the parties against the other, one of which disputes resulted in the Company not being able to meet the contractual minimum at the end of the applicable period under the agreement. In order to resolve certain of the disputes regarding the parties' respective obligations, the Company recognized a loss of $8.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2020. This loss was included in cost of revenues on our consolidated statements of operations.

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company notified Albertsons that due to the Albertsons' failure to meet certain obligations under the agreement, the Company is not obligated to meet the contractual minimums for the period that ended in October 2021. In connection with renewal discussions between the parties, the Company received a letter in October 2021 from Albertsons notifying us of their intent to early terminate our agreement related to the delivery of promotions and media campaigns, effective December 31, 2021. The Company informed Albertsons that we disputed their right to terminate the agreement prior to March 31, 2022. On November 16, 2021, the Company notified Albertsons it was terminating the Agreement effective November 18, 2021, due to Albertsons’ failure to cure its material breach of the Agreement. Consistent with its offer, the Company continued to provide certain services past the termination date for the benefit of its CPG customers; and ceased providing the last of such services on February 26, 2022. The parties are currently in litigation. If the contractual minimum applicable to the period that ended in October 2021 is enforceable, the Company may recognize a loss that, depending on a variety of factors, is estimated to be as high as $8.5 million.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, to facilitate transactions related to the Company’s operations, the Company indemnifies certain parties, including CPGs, advertising agencies, retailers and other third parties. The Company has agreed to hold certain parties harmless against losses arising from claims of intellectual property infringement or other liabilities relating to or arising from our products or services, or other contractual infringement. The term of these indemnity provisions generally survive termination or expiration of the applicable agreement. To date, the Company has not recorded any liabilities related to these agreements. We also have entered into indemnification

28

agreements with our officers and directors, and our Amended and Restated Bylaws also contain provisions relating to circumstances under which the Company may indemnify certain other parties.

The Company’s founder and chief executive officer (“CEO”) is subject to a claim from a third party, alleging that he owes certain amounts to the third party in connection with fundraising activities for Quotient that occurred between 1998 and 2006. The Company agreed to advance certain defense costs, subject to an undertaking to repay such amounts if, and to the extent that, it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemnification. The matter is ongoing. If this matter is resolved in favor of the third party and the Company is required to indemnify the CEO for a loss, the Company may be required to make an indemnity payment. While the Company maintains directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, such insurance may not be applicable, adequate or cover all liabilities that may be incurred.

Litigation

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may be involved in lawsuits, claims, investigations, and proceedings consisting of intellectual property, commercial, employment, and other matters. The Company records a provision for these claims when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss, or a range of the potential loss, can be reasonably estimated. These provisions are reviewed regularly and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information or events pertaining to a particular case. In the event that one or more of these matters were to result in a claim against the Company, an adverse outcome, including a judgment or settlement, may cause a material adverse effect on the Company’s future business, operating results, or financial condition.

The Company believes that liabilities associated with existing claims are remote, and therefore, the Company has not recorded any accrual for existing claims as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company expenses legal fees in the period in which they are incurred.

Legal Proceedings

The Company does not list all routine litigation matters with which it is a party. The Company discusses below certain pending matters. In determining whether to discuss a pending matter, the Company considers both quantitative and qualitative factors to assess materiality, such as, among others, the amount of damages alleged and the nature of other relief sought, if specified; its view of the merits of the claims and of the strength of its defenses; and whether the action purports to be, or is, a class action the jurisdiction in which the proceeding is pending.

Catalina Marketing Corp. v. Quotient Technology Inc. On February 24, 2021, Catalina Marketing Corporation filed a complaint in the Florida Circuit Court of the Sixth Judicial District against the Company asserting claims for unlawful and unfair trade practices; tortious interference with business relationship; and tortious interference with prospective business relationship. The complaint alleges that the Company engaged in predatory pricing practices and misleading communications with potential customers in connection with its in-lane coupon solution. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages and injunctive relief. While it is not possible at this time to predict with any degree of certainty the ultimate outcome of this action, the Company believes that Catalina’s claims lack merit.

Result Marketing Group, Ltd. v. Southeastern Grocers et al. On June 17, 2021, Result Marketing Group, Ltd. (“RMG”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, against Southeastern Grocers, LLC, Bio-Lo, LLC, Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc. (collectively, "SEG") and the Company. The complaint alleges SEG breached its non-disclosure agreement with RMG by providing the Company with RMG's trade secrets, including the business concept of and "playbook" for a retail media hub. The complaint alleges the Company and SEG misappropriated such trade secrets to develop the SEG Media Hub, and that the Company further misappropriated such trade secrets to develop its "retail performance media platform", which it sells to end users. The complaint further alleges that the Company interfered with RMG's contract and prospective business relationship with SEG. RMG contends that SEG defrauded it of no less than $59 million, and that the Company and SEG are jointly and severally liable for treble damages of no less than $177 million. The complaint seeks compensatory and punitive damages, a constructive trust, and attorney's fees. While it is not possible at this time to predict with any degree of certainty the ultimate outcome of this action, the Company believes that RMG’s claims lack merit.

29

Fortis Advisors LLC v. Quotient Technology, Inc. On August 20, 2021, Fortis Advisors LLC, as the SavingStar stockholder representative, ("Fortis") filed a complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery alleging breach of contract, declaratory judgment, and in the alternative, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The complaint alleges that the Company ceased to make generally available the SavingStar customer relationship management (CRM) business, which would trigger an earnout payment of $8.5 million under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated August 23, 2018, between Quotient Technology Inc. and SavingStar, Inc. While it is not possible at this time to predict with any degree of certainty the ultimate outcome of this action, the Company believes that Fortis's claims lack merit.

Albertsons Companies, Inc. v. Quotient Technology, Inc. On November 16, 2021, the Company informed Albertsons Companies, Inc. (“Albertsons”) that, in light of Albertsons' failure to cure its material breach of the Services and Data Agreement ("the Agreement"), it was terminating the Agreement effective November 19, 2021. The Company offered to continue to provide certain services beyond the termination date for the benefit of the CPGs. On November 19, 2021, Albertsons filed a complaint against the Company in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara alleging claims of breach of contract and breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The complaint alleges that the Company failed to achieve alleged minimum revenue targets, failed to make certain revenue share payments in the amount of $5.0 million, failed to pay a guaranteed annual minimum payment of $10.0 million under Statement of Work (SOW) No. 5, and improperly terminated the Agreement. On November 22, 2021, consistent with the Company's offer in its November 16, 2021 termination letter, the parties entered into a stipulation, where the Company agreed to sell campaigns through December 15, 2021, and provide services and support for those campaigns through February 26, 2022 so long as Albertsons provided the necessary logistical steps to enable the Company to deliver the services and support. The Company also agreed to support the In-Lane Tool through December 10, 2021. On December 9, 2021, Albertsons filed for a temporary restraining order to prevent the Company from discontinuing its digital-coupon-service or its In-Lane Tool or otherwise refusing to support Albertsons advertising and coupon programs, and for an order to show cause re preliminary injunction. On December 13, 2021, the Court issued an order denying Albertsons’ request for a temporary restraining order and order to show cause re preliminary injunction because, on the basis of the evidence presented by Albertsons, it found that Albertsons was unlikely to prevail on its claims at trial. While it is not possible at this time to predict with any degree of certainty the ultimate outcome of this action, the Company believes that Albertsons’ claims lack merit.

14. Employee Benefit Plan

The Company maintains a defined-contribution plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The 401(k) plan provides retirement benefits for eligible employees. Eligible employees may elect to contribute to the 401(k) plan. The Company provides a match of up to the lesser of 3% of each employee’s annual salary or $6,000, which vests immediately for employees with tenure of over a year of continuous employment. The Company’s matching contribution expense was $0.7 million in each respective period during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

15. Information About Geographic Areas

Revenues generated outside of the United States were insignificant for all periods presented. Additionally, as the Company’s assets are primarily located in the United States, information regarding geographical location is not presented, as such amounts are immaterial to these condensed consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

Item 2.         Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 1, 2022 with the SEC, as amended by our Form 10-K/A, Amendment No. 1, filed on April 29, 2022 with the SEC (collectively, "Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended"). In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The forward-looking statements reflect our plans, estimates, beliefs and expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, including statements related to the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operations. Our actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences are described in “Risk Factors” set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Quotient Technology Inc. is an industry leading digital media and promotions technology company that powers cohesive omnichannel brand-building and sales-driving marketing campaigns for advertisers and retailers to influence purchasing decisions throughout a shopper's path to purchase. These marketing campaigns are planned, delivered and measured using our technology platforms and data analytics tool. Our vision is to build the world's leading performance marketing platform that delivers a variety of targeted digital marketing solutions which advertisers and retailers can purchase to drive measurable improvements in sales and customer loyalty.

Our customers consist primarily of consumer-packaged goods ("CPG") companies and their brand marketers (together referred to as "advertisers") who want to drive sales and positive brand engagement with shoppers. Our digital marketing platform is designed to produce returns on marketing investment for advertisers by utilizing consumer behavior and intent data to deliver the right marketing message to the right shopper at the right time, through multiple touchpoints while they are engaged online, out of home and in-store. We partner with retailers, who primarily sell through local, physical stores as well as through eCommerce properties. We are primarily focused on the U.S.-based grocery retail market and the advertisers who sell products through that channel. However, we are aiming to expand outside the grocery retail space, such as with partners in certain vertically-integrated industries (also known as "verticals").

By partnering with Quotient, retailers can monetize their proprietary sales data and digital properties to build an alternative revenue stream and offer effective marketing opportunities for their brand partners to engage consumers, with the aim of achieving higher sales through their physical stores and eCommerce sites.

Over the last five years, we have grown our platform capabilities and our network of marketing channels to reach shoppers through a combination of in-house innovation, partnerships, and acquisitions. Our network includes the digital properties of our retail partners, non-retail partners and CPG customers, social media platforms, our flagship consumer brands Coupons.com and Shopmium, and DOOH properties. This network provides Quotient with proprietary and licensed data, including retailers' POS shopper data, consumer behavior and purchase intent data, and location intelligence. With such data powering our platforms, customers and partners use Quotient to leverage consumer data and insights, engage consumers via digital channels, and integrate marketing and merchandising programs to drive measurable sales results and consumer engagement.

We provide value to three constituencies: over 2,500 brands from approximately 900 CPGs; retail partners across multiple classes of trade such as grocery retailers, drug, automotive, mass merchant, dollar, club, and convenience merchandise channels; and consumers visiting our and our retailer and other network partners' websites, mobile properties and social channels.

We believe the breadth of our relationships has created a network effect, which generates increased engagement with consumers and provides us a competitive advantage over both offline and online competitors. As our network expands and consumer audience increases, we generate more consumer data and insights, which further improves our ability to deliver targeted and personalized media and promotions, and also strengthens our measurement and data insight solutions. We believe this will make our platforms more valuable to advertisers and retailers for their digital marketing campaigns. We expect that the breadth of media and promotion content delivered

31

through Quotient platforms from leading brands will increase and enables us to attract and retain more retailers and consumers.

We primarily generate revenue from advertisers and retailers using our technology platforms to help achieve their digital marketing objectives in four distinct ways: (i) plan and buy media and promotions campaigns to reach the right shoppers; (ii) target advertising, promotions and messaging to shoppers for maximum impact; (iii) sell advertising space and activate the shopper data that retailers collect through loyalty programs and digital transactions; and (iv) measure the impact of advertisements, promotions or messages that have been planned, sold or placed with "closed loop" measurement, defined as the use of consumer data to help understand and evaluate how certain digital campaigns impact our advertiser customers' and retailer partners' sales.

Using shopper data from our retail partners and our proprietary data and audience segments, we deliver targeted and/or personalized digital media and promotions to shoppers through our network. As our customers and partners shift more of their marketing spend to digital channels, our solutions help them optimize the performance of such digital channels. Our platforms measure performance by attribution of digital campaigns to retail purchases in near real time, demonstrating return on spend for our customers and partners.

Our promotions products include digital paperless coupons, digital print coupons, in-lane on receipt promotions, digital national promotions, shopper promotions, digital rebates and loyalty offers. Our media solutions include display, social, DOOH, Retailer.com display and sponsored search, shoppable brand pages, and audiences. A growing number of campaigns that our customers purchase are integrated campaigns, which combine a mix of digital media and/or promotions solutions within a single campaign. While the revenue we earn from these programs is generally determined on a cost-per-click, cost-per-impression, or cost-per-acquisition basis, we are increasingly generating revenues based on duration-based pricing with our new duration-based National Promotions offering, launched during 2021.

We generally pay a distribution fee or revenue share to retailers and publishers for activation or redemption of a digital promotion, for media campaigns, and for use of data for targeting or measurement. We also pay a fee to third-party publishers for traffic acquisition, which consists of delivering campaigns on certain networks or properties. In cases where we control the digital promotion and media advertising inventory before it is transferred to our customers, these distribution, revenue share and third-party service fees are included in our cost of revenues. In cases where we do not control the digital promotion and media advertising inventory, we record revenues on a net basis, and the distribution, revenue-share and third-party service fees are deducted from gross revenues to arrive at net revenues.

Seasonality

Some of our products experience seasonal sales and buying patterns mirroring those in the CPG, retail, advertising, and eCommerce markets, including back-to-school and holiday campaigns, where demand increases during the second half of our fiscal year. Seasonality may also be affected by CPG annual budget cycles, as some large CPGs have fiscal years ending in June. We believe that this seasonality pattern has affected, and will continue to affect, our business and the associated revenues during the first half and second half of our fiscal year. We recognized 54%, 59% and 54% of our annual revenue during the second half of 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Impact of COVID-19 

We are cognizant of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting global implications. In an effort to protect the health and safety of our employees, our workforce has had, and continues in most instances, to spend a significant amount of time working remotely, and travel has been impacted. Many government measures initially imposed to contain COVID-19 or slow its spread, including orders to close all businesses not deemed “essential,” isolate residents to their homes or places of residence, and practice social distancing, have been lifted in certain global locations and have been lifted widely in the U.S., although as a result of new virus variants arising, it is possible that such measures may be reinstated in the future. We anticipate that these actions and the global health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to negatively impact business activity across the globe, even though vaccination efforts are continuing throughout the United States and, to varying extents, in other countries. We cannot estimate the impact COVID-19 will have in the future as government entities and businesses make decisions about whether and when to open businesses or whether to return to restrictive measures after re-openings have occurred, and we also cannot estimate what impact these decisions will have on consumer activity across the globe, especially as it remains uncertain how strong or lasting the impact of the vaccinations will be. 

32

We will continue to actively monitor the pandemic situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state, local or foreign authorities, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, partners and stockholders. If brands or retailers pause, delay, or cancel campaigns due to the continuing uncertainty, supply-chain disruption, inflationary input-cost factors affecting advertiser and retailers, and consumer purchasing behavior changes caused by COVID-19, there may be an adverse impact on our promotion and media revenues and, accordingly, the growth of our business. The full extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict. See Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors, for an additional discussion of risks related to COVID-19.

First Quarter 2022 Overview

Quarterly revenues of $78.5 million in the first quarter of 2022 decreased by $36.9 million, or 32%, as compared to the same period in 2021. The year over year decrease in our quarterly revenues was largely due to a decline in promotion spending by CPGs and the termination of our partnership with the Albertsons Companies ("Albertsons"). Revenues also decreased as a result of recognizing a higher portion of our revenue on a net basis due to our recent business model changes.

Our net loss of $26.3 million in the first quarter of 2022 increased by $12.9 million, as compared to the net loss of $13.4 million in the same period in 2021. The year over year increase in our quarterly net loss was primarily due to a decrease in revenues as discussed previously, an impairment charge related to certain long-lived and right-of-use assets due to the exit of occupancy of an office space that we continue to lease, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense as a result of the adoption of ASU 2020-06. While we continue to make important investments in our technology and infrastructure, we remain focused on operational efficiencies and expense management.

We expect our operating expenses to decline in absolute dollars as we remove costs from the business. However, we also expect operating expenses to increase as a percentage of revenue as more of our future revenue is recognized on a net basis compared to the prior periods due to the business model changes. When revenues begin to grow again, we expect to increase spending to support that growth.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure and Key Operating Metrics

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, is a key metric used by our management and our Board of Directors to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget, to develop short and long-term operational plans, and to determine bonus payouts. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of certain income and expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our core business. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is a key financial metric used by the compensation committee of our Board of Directors in connection with the determination of compensation for our executive officers. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash charges, such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation, because such non-cash expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations and can vary significantly between periods. Additionally, it excludes the effects of interest expense, income taxes, other (income) expense net, change in fair value of contingent consideration, impairment of certain long-lived and right-of-use assets, shareholder activism response costs, certain acquisition related costs, and restructuring charges. We exclude certain items because we believe that these costs (benefits) do not reflect expected future operating expenses. Additionally, certain items are inconsistent in amounts and frequency, making it difficult to contribute to a meaningful evaluation of our current or past operating performance.

Net loss and Adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods presented were as follows (in thousands):

33

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Net loss	$	(26,306)	$	(13,414)
Adjusted EBITDA	(7,098)		6,835

 Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;

•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

•Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest and tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;

•Adjusted EBITDA also does not include the effects of stock-based compensation, depreciation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, change in fair value of contingent consideration, interest expense, other (income) expense, net, provision for income taxes, impairment of certain long-lived and right-of-use assets, shareholder activism response costs, certain acquisition related costs, and restructuring charges; and

•other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, for each of the periods presented is as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Net loss	$	(26,306)	$	(13,414)
Adjustments:
Stock-based compensation	5,742		5,844
Depreciation and amortization	4,561		9,431
Acquisition related costs and other (1)	7,621		482
Change in fair value of contingent consideration	—		285
Interest expense	1,154		3,730
Other (income) expense, net	(36)		228
Provision for income taxes	166		249
Total adjustments	$	19,208	$	20,249
Adjusted EBITDA	$	(7,098)	$	6,835

(1)For the three months ended March 31, 2022, Other includes a charge of $6.1 million related to the impairment of certain long-lived and right-of-use assets, $1.4 million related to shareholder activism response costs, and $0.1 million related to restructuring charges. The three months ended March 31, 2021 include no other costs. Acquisition related costs primarily include certain bonuses contingent upon the acquired company meeting certain financial metrics over the contingent consideration period and diligence, accounting, and legal expenses incurred related to certain acquisitions. Restructuring charges relate to severance for impacted employees.

This non-GAAP financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation from, as substitute for, or as superior to, the corresponding financial measure prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because of these and other limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should be considered along with U.S. GAAP based financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net loss, and our other U.S. GAAP financial results.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

Grow our network. The success and scale of our platforms and our ability to grow revenue will depend on our ability to grow our publishing network, expand our reach to engaged consumers, and drive volume of transactions on our platforms. If we do not add network partners or expand our relationship with existing network partners, or if network partners do not deliver active users to our platforms, our business and revenue growth will be negatively impacted.

Obtaining high quality promotions, increasing the number of brand-authorized activations, and capitalizing on new pricing/revenue models for promotions. Our ability to grow revenue will depend upon our ability to shift more dollars to our platforms from our brand customers, to continue to obtain high quality promotions, to increase the number of brand-authorized activations available through our platforms, and to capitalize on new pricing/revenue models for promotions, such as duration-based pricing. If we are unable to do any of these, growth in our revenue may be adversely affected.

Increasing revenue from advertisers on our platforms. Our ability to grow our revenue in the future depends upon our ability to continue to increase revenues from existing and new advertisers on our platforms through national brand coupons, targeted media and measurement, and increasing the number of brands that are using our platforms within each advertiser.

Variability in promotional and media spend by advertisers or brands. Our revenues may fluctuate due to changes in promotional or media spending budgets of advertisers as well as the timing of their promotional and media spending. Decisions by major advertisers, whether or not due to the impact of COVID-19 and related supply chain and inflation input-cost issues, to delay or reduce their promotional and media spending, move campaigns, or divert spending away from digital promotions or media, could slow our revenue growth or reduce our revenues.

Ability to retain and expand our relationships with retailers, obtain commitment and support for our platforms from retailers, and successfully renegotiate or amend retailer agreements. The success and scale of our platforms depend on our strategic relationships with retailers. The success and scale of our platforms also depends on the level of commitment and support for our platforms from retailers. Renewals or amendments of existing retailer relationships may become more challenging for us in light of our business model and pricing changes. These changes require restructuring our agreements and the way we operate with retailers and revenue arrangements for certain services. If we do not expand these relationships, if we do not renew or amend these relationships on as favorable terms as were in place immediately prior to renewal or amendment, if we lose significant retailers, or if we do not add new retailers to our platforms, our business will be negatively affected. In the near term, we expect the termination of our relationship with Albertsons to continue to have a negative impact on our financial performance.

Innovation in our media and promotions offerings, expansion of our consumer reach and growth of our data analytics capabilities. Our ability to grow our revenue in the future will depend on our ability to (i) innovate and invest in promotion and media solutions, particularly with regard to automation and self-service offerings; and (ii) invest in solutions around our data and analytic capabilities, referred to as Quotient Analytics and Audiences, for advertisers and retailers.

International Growth and Acquisitions. Our ability to grow our revenues will also depend on our ability to grow our operations and offerings in existing international markets and expand our business through selective acquisitions, similar to our acquisitions of MLW Squared Inc. ("Ahalogy"), Crisp Media, Inc. ("Crisp"), Elevaate, SavingStar, Inc. ("SavingStar"), Shopmium SAS ("Shopmium"), and Ubimo, and our ability to integrate such acquisitions with the core business of the Company.

Comparison of the Three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021

Revenues

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands, except percentages)	2022		2021		$ Change		% Change
Revenues	$	78,456	$	115,316	$	(36,860)	(32)	%

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased by $36.9 million, or 32%, as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease in digital promotion revenues was primarily due to a decline in promotion spending by CPGs, the termination of our partnership with Albertsons, and as a result of recognizing more revenue on a net basis due to business model changes. The decrease in media revenues was primarily due to the termination of our partnership with Albertsons and as a result of recognizing more revenue on a net basis due to business model changes. Revenues from digital promotion and media campaigns were 64% and 36%, respectively, of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to 60% and 40%, respectively, of total revenues during the same period in 2021.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands, except percentages)	2022			2021			$ Change		% Change
Cost of revenues	$	49,078		$	71,984		$	(22,906)	(32)	%
Gross profit	$	29,378		$	43,332		$	(13,954)	(32)	%
Gross margin	37		%	38		%

Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased by $22.9 million, or 32%, as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a net decrease of $18.4 million in distribution fees paid to our partners for media and promotion revenues delivered through their platforms, due to the decrease in revenues as discussed previously, and data and traffic acquisition costs for offsite media on non-owned-and-operated properties, a portion of which is now reported net with revenues; a decrease in amortization expense of $4.3 million related to acquired intangible assets; a decrease in compensation costs of $0.1 million; and a decrease in overhead expenses of $0.1 million related to facilities and infrastructure support.

  Gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased to 37% from 38% compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to operating leverage on the 32% reduction of net revenues and sales mix, partially offset by lower amortization expense related to acquired intangible assets and a higher proportion of media revenue recognized net of certain costs.

 We expect the cost of revenues during fiscal 2022 to decline, in absolute dollars, as we expect a higher proportion of our revenue to be recognized on a net basis. We recognize revenue on a net basis for arrangements when we act as an agent and do not control the service provided by the retailer or the price charged by the partner. CPGs and retailers are responsible for the determination of where a campaign is delivered, and retailers are responsible for providing the underlying services.

37

Sales and Marketing

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands, except percentages)	2022			2021			$ Change		% Change
Sales and marketing	$	21,936		$	27,365		$	(5,429)	(20)	%
Percent of revenues	28		%	24		%

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation, including salaries and benefits, sales commissions and stock-based compensation provided to our sales and marketing personnel, as well as facility costs and other related overhead costs; marketing programs; amortization of acquired intangibles; and travel costs.

 Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased by $5.4 million, as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in compensation costs of $3.0 million related to lower personnel costs in connection with our expense management efforts; a decrease of $2.2 million in promotional, advertising and other costs; and a decrease in amortization of acquired intangibles of $0.2 million.

We expect sales and marketing expenses to remain relatively flat, in absolute dollars, as we continue to invest in sales and marketing in order to support our growth and business objectives.

Research and Development

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands, except percentages)	2022			2021			$ Change		% Change
Research and development	$	9,756		$	12,056		$	(2,300)	(19)	%
Percent of revenues	12		%	10		%

Research and development expenses consist primarily of compensation, including salaries, bonuses and benefits, and stock-based compensation provided to our engineering personnel, as well as facility costs and other related overhead costs; costs related to development of new products and the enhancement of existing products; and fees for design, testing, consulting, and other related services.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased by $2.3 million, or 19%, as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in capitalization of internal use software development costs of $1.4 million, a decrease in compensation of $0.6 million related to lower personnel costs in connection with our expense management efforts, and a decrease in overhead expenses related to facilities and infrastructure support of $0.3 million.

We believe that continued investment in technology is critical to attaining our strategic objectives, and we intend to balance our investment in research and development with our continued operational and cost optimization efforts. However, we expect research and development expenses, in absolute dollars, to decline in future periods as we consolidate our engineering function to drive efficiencies. Over the long term, we plan to continue to expand our tools and products that will enable our business to scale and provide more offerings to our customers.

38

General and Administrative

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands, except percentages)	2022			2021			$ Change		% Change
General and administrative	$	22,708		$	12,833		$	9,875	77	%
Percent of revenues	29		%	11		%

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation, including salaries, bonuses and benefits, and stock-based compensation provided to our executives, finance, legal, human resource and administrative personnel, as well as facility costs and other related overhead costs; and fees paid for professional services, including legal, tax, accounting services, and other related services.

 General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $9.9 million, or 77%, as compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to an impairment charge related to certain long-lived and right-of-use assets of $6.1 million due to the exit of occupancy of an office space; shareholder activism response costs of $1.4 million; an increase in professional service fees of $1.7 million including higher legal fees due to litigation matters; an increase in compensation costs of $1.2 million; and an increase in restructuring charges of $0.1 million, partially offset by a decrease acquisition related charges of $0.5 million and a decrease in other administrative expenses of $0.1 million.

We expect general and administrative expenses, in absolute dollars, to return to previous levels in future periods as we balance our investment in corporate infrastructure with our continued operational and cost optimization efforts.

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands, except percentages)	2022			2021			$ Change		% Change
Change in fair value of contingent consideration	$	—		$	285		$	(285)	(100)	%
Percent of revenues	—		%	—		%

     During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we did not record any charge related to the change in fair value of contingent consideration. As of December 31, 2021, Ubimo's contingent consideration period ended upon achieving certain financial metrics. During the first quarter of 2022, we paid $24.7 million, and as such, no liability existed as of March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recorded a net charge of $0.3 million related to the re-measurement of contingent consideration associated with both Ubimo and Elevaate, due to the increase in expected achievement of certain financial metrics over the contingent consideration period.

Interest Expense and Other Income (Expense), Net

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands, except percentages)	2022		2021		$ Change		% Change
Interest expense	$	(1,154)	$	(3,730)	2,576		(69)	%
Other income (expense), net	36		(228)		264		(116)	%
	$	(1,118)	$	(3,958)	$	2,840	(72)	%

39

 Interest expense is primarily related to the convertible senior notes, promissory note and finance lease obligations. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased by $2.6 million primarily due to the adoption of ASU 2020-06, under which guidance the Company no longer incurs interest expense related to the accretion of the debt discount associated with the convertible note. Refer to Note 2 for further details related to the adoption of the new standard.

Other income (expense), net consists primarily of interest income on U.S. Treasury Bills held as cash equivalents and banking-related fees. The increase in other income (expense), net during the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021, was due to the effect of re-measuring balances in foreign currency due to exchange rate fluctuations.

Provision for Income Taxes

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands, except percentages)	2022		2021		$ Change		% Change
Provision for income taxes	$	166	$	249	$	(83)	(33)	%

The provision for income taxes of $0.2 million for each respective period during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was primarily attributable to our foreign operations, amortization of tax-deductible goodwill from prior acquisitions, and state taxes.

40

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations and capital expenditures through cash flows from operation as well as from the proceeds from the issuance of convertible senior notes in 2017. As of March 31, 2022, our principal source of liquidity was cash and cash equivalents of $202.6 million, which was held for working capital purposes. Our cash equivalents are comprised primarily of money market funds.

We have incurred and expect to continue to incur legal, accounting, regulatory compliance and other costs in future periods as we continue to invest in corporate infrastructure and in connection with litigation matters. In addition, we may use cash to fund acquisitions or invest in other businesses, or to incur capital expenditures including leasehold improvements or technology development activities. We intend to continue to manage our operating expenses in line with our existing cash and available financial resources, and we anticipate we will incur increased spending in future periods in order to execute our long-term business plan and to support our growth to fund our operating expenses.

Some of our agreements with retailers include an upfront payment for exclusive rights for the term of the agreement. These payments are generally recognized as an expense or as a contra-revenue item over the term of the exclusive right benefit.

In addition, some of our agreements with retailers include certain guaranteed distribution fees which, in some cases, may apply to multiple annual periods. If the adoption and usage of our platforms do not meet projections or minimums, these guaranteed distribution fees may not be recoverable and any shortfall may be payable by us at the end of the applicable period. We considered various factors in our assessment including our historical experience with the transaction volumes through the retailer and comparative retailers, ongoing communications with the retailer related to the retailer's marketing efforts to promote the digital platform, and revenues and associated revenue share payments for the particular retailer relationship that were projected. For example, in 2020 the Company's efforts to implement, with Albertsons, one of our solutions resulted in multiple disputes being raised by each of the parties against the other, one of which disputes resulted in the Company not being able to meet the contractual minimum at the end of the applicable period under the agreement. In order to resolve certain of the disputes regarding the parties' respective obligations, we recognized a loss of $8.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2020. This loss was included in cost of revenues on our consolidated statements of operations. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company notified Albertsons that, due to Albertsons' failure to meet certain obligations under the agreement, the Company is not obligated to meet the contractual minimums for the period that ended in October 2021. In connection with renewal discussions between the parties, we received a letter in October 2021 from Albertsons notifying us of their intent to early terminate our agreement related to the delivery of promotions and media campaigns, effective December 31, 2021. We informed Albertsons that we disputed their right to terminate the agreement prior to March 31, 2022. On November 16, 2021, the Company notified Albertsons it was terminating the Agreement effective November 18, 2021, due to Albertsons’ failure to cure its material breach of the Agreement. Consistent with its offer, the Company continued to provide certain services past the termination date for the benefit of its CPG customers; and ceased providing the last of such services on February 26, 2022. The parties are currently in litigation. If the contractual minimum applicable to the period that ended in October 2021 is enforceable, the Company may recognize a loss that, depending on a variety of factors, is estimated to be as high as $8.5 million.

In November 2017, we issued $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.75% convertible senior notes due 2022 in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “notes”). The notes are unsecured obligations of the company and bear interest at a fixed rate of 1.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on June 1, 2018. The notes will mature on December 1, 2022, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed, or converted in accordance with their terms.

In November 2021, we entered into a Loan, Guaranty, and Security Agreement (the "ABL Credit Agreement") which provides for an asset-backed revolving credit facility in the aggregate amount of $100.0 million and a sublimit for letters of credit of $10.0 million (the "ABL Facility"). The ABL Facility matures on November 17, 2026 with a springing maturity 91 days prior to the maturity of the notes under certain circumstances.

We believe our existing cash, cash equivalents and cash flow from operations, and access to financing sources, including our ABL Facility, will be sufficient to meet our scheduled debt repayment obligations, working capital and capital expenditure needs for the next 12 months and beyond. To the extent that current and anticipated

41

future sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund our future business activities and requirements, we may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. In the event additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us or at all. During the period of uncertainty and volatility related to the COVID-19 pandemic, we will continue to monitor our liquidity. See Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors, for an additional discussion of risks related to COVID-19.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities	$	(25,608)	$	10,510
Net cash used in investing activities	(2,557)		(2,797)
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(6,744)		10,661
Effect of exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents	75		(40)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	(34,834)	$	18,334

Operating Activities

Cash from operating activities relates to our net income or loss for the period, adjusted for net non-cash income or expenses and changes in our operating assets and liabilities.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in operating activities of $25.6 million reflected our net loss of $26.3 million, adjusted for net non-cash expenses of $17.7 million, and cash used as a result of changes in working capital of $17.0 million. Non-cash expenses included depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs, allowance (recovery) for credit losses, deferred income taxes, change in fair value of contingent consideration, impairment of long-lived and right-of-use assets, and other non-cash expenses, including amortization of right-of-use asset, amortization of deferred cost, and loss on disposal of property and equipment. The primary uses of cash from working capital items included a decrease in accounts payable and other liabilities of $46.5 million due to timing of services and payments including payment for a deferred cost related to a retailer agreement, a Ubimo contingent consideration payment of $19.0 million related to the changes in fair value over the contingent consideration period, a decrease in accrued compensation and benefits of $8.0 million due to annual bonus payouts, a decrease in deferred revenues of $5.6 million due to lower billings for campaigns, and an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $1.2 million, partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $63.3 million due to timing of invoicing and collections.

Investing Activities

Purchases of property and equipment may vary from period-to-period due to the timing of the expansion of our operations, the addition of headcount and the development activities related to our future offerings. We expect to continue to invest in property and equipment and in the further development and enhancement of our software platform for the foreseeable future. In addition, from time to time, we may consider potential acquisitions that would complement our existing service offerings, enhance our technical capabilities or expand our marketing and sales presence. Any future transaction of this nature could require potentially significant amounts of capital or could require us to issue our stock and dilute existing stockholders.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities of $2.6 million reflected purchases of property and equipment, which includes technology hardware and software to support our growth as well as capitalized software development costs.

Financing Activities

Our financing activities consisted primarily of payments made for shares withheld to cover payroll withholding taxes relating to the issuance of shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and also relating to the vesting of RSUs.

42

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, net cash used in financing activities of $6.7 million reflected $5.7 million in payments for Ubimo contingent consideration (initially measured and included as part of purchase consideration on the date of acquisition), payments made for shares withheld to cover the required payroll withholding taxes of $0.9 million in connection with vesting of equity grant awards, and payments on promissory note and finance lease obligations of $0.1 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2022.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Refer to Note 8 and Note 13 of our notes to condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information. There have been no significant changes outside the ordinary course of business during the three months ended March 31, 2022 to our commitments and contingencies disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results could differ from these estimates.

There were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such management estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, collectability of accounts receivable, useful lives of intangible assets, estimates related to recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation, restructuring accruals, legal contingencies, deferred income taxes and associated valuation allowances and distribution fee commitments. These estimates generally require judgments, may involve the analysis of historical and prediction of future trends, and are subject to change from period to period. Actual results may differ from the Company’s estimates, and such differences may be material to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created and may continue to create uncertainty in macroeconomic conditions, which may cause further business slowdowns or shutdowns, depress demand for our advertising business and adversely impact our results of operations, even in light of ongoing vaccination efforts. We expect uncertainties around our key accounting estimates to continue to evolve depending on the duration and degree of impact associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Our estimates may change as new events occur and additional information emerges, and such changes are recognized or disclosed in our consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Item 3.         Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

43

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no significant changes to our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk. Please refer to Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for a more complete discussion on the market risks we encounter.

Item 4.         Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our CEO and our chief financial officer (“CFO”), after evaluating the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of March 31, 2022, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, during the first quarter of 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls are not designed to prevent all errors and all frauds. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

Our business is subject to a number of risks, including risks that may prevent us from achieving our business objectives or may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and prospects. These risks are discussed more fully under "Item 1A. Risk Factors" below and include, but are not limited to, risks related to:

Risks Related to Our Business

•We have incurred net losses since inception and we may not be able to generate sufficient revenues to achieve or subsequently maintain profitability.

•We may not achieve revenue growth, including as a result of changes to our business model.

•We depend in part on advertising agencies as intermediaries, and if we fail to develop and maintain these relationships, our business may be negatively affected.

•Our failure to attract, integrate and retain other highly qualified personnel in the future could harm our business, and in the near term is an increasing challenge due to market conditions and strategic transitions in our business.

•The effects of health epidemics, including the COVID-19 pandemic, have had, and may continue to have, an adverse impact on our business, operations and the markets and communities in which we and our partners operate.

•Acquisitions, joint ventures and strategic investments could result in operating difficulties, dilution and other harmful consequences.

•If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our business and financial performance may suffer.

45

•If our websites or those of our publishers fail to rank prominently in unpaid search results from search engines, traffic to our websites could decline and our business would be adversely affected.

•Failure to deal effectively with fraudulent or other improper transactions could harm our business.

•Indemnity provisions in various agreements and our corporate documents potentially expose us to substantial liability for intellectual property infringement and other claims.

•Our business depends on strong brands, and if we are not able to maintain and enhance our brands, or if we receive unfavorable media coverage, our ability to retain and expand our number of advertisers, retailers and consumers will be impaired and our business and operating results will be negatively affected.

Risks Related to Government Regulation, Tax Law or Accounting Standards

•Our business is subject to complex and evolving laws, regulations and industry standards, and unfavorable interpretations of, or changes in, or our actual and perceived failure to comply with these laws, regulations and industry standards could substantially harm our business and results of operations.

•If our estimates or judgements relating to our critical accounting policies prove to be incorrect, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

•Our ability to use net operating losses to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations.

Risks Related to Our Platforms, Technology and Intellectual Property

•If our security measures or information we collect and maintain are compromised or publicly exposed, advertisers, retailers and consumers may curtail or stop using our platforms and we could be subject to claims, penalties and fines.

•Our ability to generate revenue and properly capture the occurrence of certain revenue-generating events depends on the collection, reliability, and use of significant amounts of data from various sources, which may be restricted by consumer choice, restrictions imposed by retailers, publishers and browsers or other software developers, changes in technology, and new developments in laws, regulations and industry requirements or standards.

•If the use of mobile device identifiers, third-party cookies or other tracking technology is rejected by consumers, restricted by third parties outside of our control or otherwise subject to unfavorable regulation, the benefits of our offerings and solutions could diminish, our data and media acquisition costs could increase, and we could lose customers and revenue.

•Our business depends on our ability to maintain and scale the network infrastructure necessary to operate our platforms, including our websites and mobile applications, and any significant disruption in service could result in a loss of advertisers, retailers and consumers.

•We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property rights.

•Some of our solutions contain open-source software, which may pose particular risks to our proprietary software and solutions.

Risks Related to Ownership of our Common Stock

•The market price of our common stock has been, and is likely to continue to be, subject to wide fluctuations and could subject us to litigation.

•Our tax benefits preservation plan may reduce the volume of trading in our stock because it limits the ability of persons or entities from acquiring a significant percentage of our outstanding stock.

•Our business could be negatively affected as a result of actions of stockholders.

Risks Related to Debt Financing Transactions

46

•We are leveraged financially, which could adversely affect our ability to adjust our business to respond to competitive pressures and to obtain sufficient funds to satisfy our future growth, business needs and development plans.

General Risks

•Our ability to raise capital in the future may be limited, and our failure to raise capital when needed could prevent us from growing.

•Global economic conditions could materially adversely affect our revenue and results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described below, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial conditions, and the trading price of our common stock. The risks described below are not the only risk facing us. Risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.  

Risks Related to Our Business

We have incurred net losses since inception and we may not be able to generate sufficient revenues to achieve or subsequently maintain profitability.

We have incurred net losses of $45.6 million and $65.4 million in 2021 and 2020, respectively, and incurred net losses of $26.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. We have an accumulated deficit of $483.4 million as of March 31, 2022. We anticipate that our costs and expenses will increase in the foreseeable future as we continue to invest in:

•retailer partnerships;

•network growth;

•sales and marketing;

•research and development, including new product development;

•our technology infrastructure, business processes, and automation;

•general administration, including legal and accounting expenses related to our growth and continued expenses;

•expanding into new markets and verticals; and

•strategic opportunities and commercial relationships.

For example, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur expenses in developing and retaining retailer partnerships and developing self-service capabilities and automation. We may not succeed in increasing our revenues sufficiently to offset these expenses.

If we are unable to execute our growth strategy and gain efficiencies in our operating costs, our business could be adversely impacted. We cannot be certain that we will be able to attain or maintain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. If we are unable to effectively manage these risks and difficulties as we encounter them, our business, financial condition and results of operations may suffer.

We may not achieve revenue growth, including as a result of changes to our business model.

We may not be able to achieve revenue growth, and we may not be able to generate sufficient revenues to achieve profitability. Historically the growth rate of our business, and as a result, our revenue growth, has varied from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year, and we expect that variability to continue, particularly as we transform our business model from primarily managed services to more self-service and automated solutions through our platforms. We are also implementing transitions in our promotions pricing, from a cost-per-acquisition model to a duration-based model.

47

Business model changes such as these carry operational risks, and our expectations regarding the execution, success, timing, and impact of these changes may not be met. For example, an operational risk relating to our shift to self-service and automated solutions is that these new offerings may not be preferred by advertisers and retailers to alternative offerings from our competitors.

There are also financial risks, such as our ability to establish metrics and forecast performance targets associated with these business model changes. We may not, accordingly, realize financial targets based on the business model changes, and as a result our results of operations could be negatively impacted.

Our revenues may also fluctuate due to changes in marketing budgets of advertisers and retailers, and the timing of their marketing spend. Marketing spend by advertisers is considered the most flexible and easiest to cut, and advertisers can change their spend without notice, which can result in our inability to anticipate such fluctuations. For example, budget pressures or unspent budgets at the end of a CPG’s fiscal year may lead to, respectively, unexpected reduced or increased spending on our platforms.

Decisions by advertisers or retailers to delay or reduce their digital marketing on our platforms or choose a solution from one of our competitors; changes in our fee arrangements with CPGs, retailers and other commercial partners, or the termination of a partnership with a retailer, such as the termination of our relationship with Albertsons, could also slow our revenue growth or reduce our revenues. For instance, beginning in mid-March of 2020, decisions by CPGs and retailers to mostly pause or delay, and in some cases cancel, marketing campaigns due to the uncertainty, supply-chain disruption, and consumer purchasing behavior changes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse impact on our revenue and revenue growth for the second quarter of 2020. While CPGs and retailers resumed digital marketing in the second half of 2020 generally, certain CPGs and retailers still are experiencing supply chain disruption, and brands and retailers are experiencing inflationary pressures that are increasing their costs. Accordingly, we may continue to see reduced digital marketing levels and postponed or cancelled campaigns, particularly if COVID-19 outbreaks persist or, more broadly, the pandemic worsens.

Our business is complex and evolving. We may offer new capabilities, pricing, service models, process and delivery methods to advertisers and retailers. These new capabilities may change the way we generate and/or recognize revenue, which could impact our operating results. For example, we have announced that we are shifting our focus away from a lower-margin, labor-intensive managed services business and are moving towards more self-service and platform-based solutions. As a result of these changes, and the application of the accounting rules relating to such changes, we are recognizing certain media revenue on a net basis as compared to the prior recognition on a gross basis. As another example, we are shifting from a cost-per-acquisition pricing model for promotions to non-quantity-based-pricing models, such as duration-based promotions.

We believe that our continued revenue growth will depend on our ability to:

•successfully execute on our shift away from a lower-margin, labor-intensive services business and towards more self-service and platform-based solutions;

•increase our share of advertiser spend on promotions and media through our platforms, increase the number of brands that are using our platforms within each advertiser or CPG, and expand our advertiser or CPG base;

•maintain and grow retailers in our network, increase the number of network partners in our network, and expand our network with new verticals;

•succeed with new pricing models, such as our shift to time-based (e.g. duration-based) promotions pricing;

•adapt to changes in marketing goals, strategies and budgets of advertisers and retailers, and the timing of their marketing spend;

•capitalize on the shift from offline to digital marketing and growth in e-commerce;

•maintain and expand our data rights with our retailer network;

•successfully execute and expand our digital media solutions in retail performance media, social influencer marketing, sponsored product search, DOOH, and programmatic media;

•successfully execute and expand our promotions solutions in national promotions, in-lane, targeted promotions, national rebates, and loyalty rewards programs;

48

•demonstrate the value of our platforms through trusted measurement metrics;

•maintain and grow the size of our targetable audience;

•respond to changes in the legislative or regulatory environment, including with respect to privacy and data protection, or enforcement by government regulators, including fines, orders, or consent decrees;

•deploy, execute, and continue to develop our analytics capabilities;

•expand the use by consumers of our media and promotions offerings;

•successfully integrate our newly acquired companies into our business;

•innovate our consumer solutions and experiences to retain and grow our consumer base;

•expand the number, variety, quality, and relevance of promotions available on our platforms and through our network;

•increase the awareness of our brands, and earn and build our reputation;

•hire, integrate, train and retain talented personnel;

•effectively manage scaling and international expansion of our operations; and

•successfully compete with existing and new competitors.

However, we cannot provide assurance that we will successfully accomplish any of these actions. Failure to do so could harm our business and cause our operating results to suffer.

Our revenue and business will be negatively affected if we fail to retain and expand our relationships with retailers, if we fail to obtain commitment and support for our platforms from retailers, and if we do not successfully renegotiate or amend retailer agreements.

The success and scale of our platforms depend on our strategic relationships with retailers. The success and scale of our platforms also depends on the level of commitment and support for our platforms from retailers.

Renewals or amendments of existing retailer relationships may become more challenging for us in light of our business model and pricing changes. These changes require restructuring our agreements and the way we operate with retailers and revenue arrangements for certain services. There is no assurance that retailers will agree to such changes, or that renewals or amendments will occur at all or on terms as favorable as the pre-renewal or pre-amendment terms. Should any such circumstance occur, our business could be adversely affected. More generally, if we do not expand these relationships, if we lose significant retailers, or if we do not add new retailers to our platforms, our business will be negatively affected.

For instance, our revenue and growth may be adversely impacted if retailers do not support our platforms. The success of our platforms requires integration with a retailer’s POS, loyalty programs and consumer channels. Certain platform capabilities may require integration with other retailer systems as well. This integration requires time and effort from the retailer; and may require us to work with a retailer’s third-party service providers, some of whom may be our competitors. In addition, the success of our platforms requires consumer and advertiser adoption which requires significant marketing and other support from retailers, including retailer programs that drive more advertiser spend on our platforms. If retailers do not provide sufficient or timely resources and support, platform launches could be delayed and consumer and/or advertiser adoption could be slow or minimal, which would negatively impact our revenue, costs of revenue, and recoverability of certain assets. As an example, delays in the launch of in-lane promotions and sponsored search and display adversely impacted our revenue growth for the second half of 2019. Also, our revenue was negatively affected in the first half of 2020 when retailers mostly paused or delayed, and in some cases cancelled, marketing campaigns on our platforms in response to supply-chain challenges and out-of-stock product at shelf, consumer purchasing behavior changes, and other issues resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

The success of our platforms also depends in part on our use of consumer sales data provided by retailers, our access to retailer consumer channels, the size and quality of retailer audiences, and the national scale and reach of our retailer network. If we fail to secure, or are found to be in violation of the terms of, such data, access and scale, we could lose access to retailer data and our platforms would be less valuable to advertisers and other business partners.

49

In addition, we depend on retailers to comply with laws, regulations and industry standards relating to privacy and the use of consumer data. If we and our retail partners cannot timely respond to legal, regulatory and industry changes, or if retailers decide to limit or prohibit use of their data to comply with such changes, our revenue and growth would be impaired. For instance, if the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the " CCPA"), is amended to prohibit the “sale” (as defined in the CCPA) of loyalty program data, or if retailers materially restrict our use of sales and loyalty card data in light of the CCPA or similar laws or regulations, our business will be negatively affected. See the risk factor below titled “Our business is subject to complex and evolving laws, regulations and industry standards, and unfavorable interpretations of, or changes in, or failure by us to comply with these laws, regulations and industry standards could substantially harm our business and results of operations” for additional information.

Our sales cycle with retailers tends to be long. We may make investments and incur significant expenses before an agreement or renewal with a retailer is reached, if at all, and before we are able to generate any revenue from such agreement or renewal. There are no guarantees that we will be able to recoup such investments and expenses, which would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our revenue and business will be negatively affected if we fail to develop, increase the number of and expand relationships with network partners that contribute to the growth of audiences engaging on our platforms.

The success and scale of our platforms also depends on growing our publishing network of retailer and non-retailer partners, which we sometimes refer to as network partners. These network partners are a significant factor in our effort to increase audience and volume on our platforms and thereby enable our network to deliver the scale and reach that advertisers, and the advertising agencies that sometimes act on their behalf, are seeking. These partners can also be important in connection with the launch and marketing of new offerings, such as our self-service and automated solutions. If we are unable to grow our network or our network partners do not increase our aggregate audience reach and drive volume on our platforms, our revenue and business may be negatively impacted.

The loss of or decrease in spending by any significant customer, or the loss of or decrease in support from any significant partner, could materially and adversely affect our revenues, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business is exposed to risks related to customer concentration, particularly among advertisers, and partner concentration, particularly among retailers. The loss of or decrease in spending by any of our significant customers, or the loss of or decrease in support from any of our significant partners, or a deterioration in our relationships with any of them, could materially and adversely affect our revenues, results of operations and financial condition. As an example, the loss of a retailer, such as the termination of our partnership with Albertsons, negatively impacts the amount that advertisers spend on our platforms.

If the distribution, revenue sharing or other fees that we pay increase, or if we are unable to meet contractual minimums under guaranteed distribution fee arrangements, our gross profit and business will be negatively affected.

We generally pay a distribution fee to retailer and non-retailer partners in our publishing network when we deliver media and promotions on their digital properties or through their loyalty programs. We also pay fees to retailers for use of their data to power our platforms. Such fees have increased as a percentage of our revenue in recent periods. As we renew agreements or enter into new ones, we may face pressure to pay higher distribution fees. If such fees continue to increase, our cost of revenue could increase and our operating results would be adversely affected. In addition, calculations of such fees are complex and if network partners disagree with our calculations in an audit, the result of such disagreement could have an adverse impact on our business.

In addition, some of our agreements with retailers include certain upfront fees/payments or guaranteed distribution fees, which, in some cases, may apply to multiple annual periods. If the adoption and usage of our platforms do not meet projections or minimums, these fees may not be recoverable and any shortfall, if applicable, may be payable by us at the end of the applicable period. We consider various factors in our assessment of whether these upfront or guaranteed distribution fees may not be recoverable, including our historical experience with the transaction volumes through the retailer and comparative retailers, ongoing communications with the retailer to increase its marketing efforts to promote our digital platforms, as well as the projected revenue and associated revenue share payments. For example, in 2020, the Company's efforts to implement, with Albertsons, one of the

50

Company’s solutions resulted in multiple disputes being raised by each of the parties against the other, one of which disputes resulted in the Company not being able to meet the contractual minimum at the end of the applicable period under the agreement. In order to resolve certain of the disputes regarding the parties' respective obligations, the Company recognized a loss of $8.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2020. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company notified Albertsons that, due to Albertsons failure to meet certain obligations under the agreement, the Company is not obligated to meet the contractual minimums for the period that ended in October 2021. In connection with renewal discussions between the parties, we received a letter from Albertsons in October 2021 notifying us of their intent to early terminate our agreement related to the delivery of promotions and media campaigns, effective December 31, 2021. We informed Albertsons that we disputed their right to terminate the agreement prior to March 31, 2022. On November 16, 2021, the Company notified Albertsons it was terminating the Agreement effective November 18, 2021, due to Albertsons’ failure to cure its material breach of the Agreement. Consistent with its offer, the Company continued to provide certain services past the termination date for the benefit of its CPG customers; and ceased providing the last of such services on February 26, 2022. The parties are currently in litigation. If the contractual minimum applicable to the period that ended in October 2021 is enforceable, the Company may recognize a loss that, depending on a variety of factors, is estimated to be as high as $8.5 million.

Our gross margins are dependent on many factors, some of which are not directly controlled by us.

The factors potentially affecting our gross margins include:

•impacts of changes in our business model including transitioning the pricing of promotions offerings from cost-per-acquisition to duration-based pricing, and the degree and timing of advertiser and retailer response to this transition, and also increasing the proportion of self-service and automated offerings;

•business model or solution delivery changes, with respect to a portion of our offerings, that result in revenue being recognized on a net, as opposed to a gross, basis;

•our product mix, since we have significant variations in our gross margin among products and, accordingly, any substantial change in product mix could change our aggregate gross margin;

•growth and expansion of our lower-margin media products, including programmatic ads delivered through third-party ad-tech partners and publishers;

•our efforts to add higher-margin solutions to our suite of offerings;

•our ability to meet contractual minimums under guaranteed distribution fee arrangements;

•increasing costs of maintaining, expanding and adding retailer and other network partner relationships;

•increasing data acquisition and media acquisition costs;

•evolving fee arrangements with advertisers, as well as with retailer and other network partners, which might have an impact on our gross margins;

•success of our pricing strategies, including duration-based pricing strategies;

•our decision to exit higher margin non-strategic products or business lines;

•success of our investments in technology and automation, or through acquisitions to gain cost efficiencies;

•increasing pricing pressures from competitors, advertisers and agencies representing advertisers; and

•success of higher-margin new products.

We have seen pressure on our gross margins, which we principally attribute to the factors described above and we expect this pressure to continue while our growth strategy evolves and our product mix continues to change. For instance, lower-margin media products have increased in our product mix, and we face margin pressure arising from increased media and data acquisition costs due, in part, to reduced inventory and increased consumer ability to opt out of permitting their personal information to be used for marketing purposes. See Risk Factor below entitled "If the use of mobile device identifiers, third-party cookies or other tracking technology is rejected by consumers, restricted by third parties outside of our control, or otherwise subject to unfavorable regulation, the benefits of our offerings and solutions could diminish, our data and media acquisition costs could increase and we could lose customers and revenue". Although we expect to gain leverage as our business expands, our platforms transition to self-service, and through automation, there is no guarantee that we will succeed.

51

We expect a number of factors to cause our operating results to fluctuate on a quarterly and annual basis, which may make it difficult to predict our future performance.

Growth forecasts are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estimates that may not prove to be accurate. Historically, our revenue growth has varied from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year, and we expect that variability to continue. In addition, our operating costs and expenses have fluctuated in the past, and we anticipate that our costs and expenses will increase over time as we continue to invest in growing our business. Our operating results could vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year as a result of these and other factors, many of which are outside of our control, and as a result we have a limited ability to forecast the amount of future revenue and expenses, which may adversely affect our ability to predict financial results accurately. Our ability to forecast our future results of operations is subject to a number of uncertainties, including our ability to effectively plan for and model future growth, and especially uncertainty relating to our business model changes. We have encountered in the past, and may encounter in the future, risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies in changing industries. Our results of operations may fall below our estimates or the expectations of public market analysts and investors. Fluctuations in our quarterly operating results may lead analysts to change their long-term models for valuing our common stock, cause us to face short-term liquidity issues, impact our ability to retain or attract key personnel or cause other unanticipated issues, all of which could cause our stock price and the trading price of the convertible senior notes to decline. As a result of the potential variations in our quarterly revenue and operating results, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our revenues and operating results may not be meaningful, and the results of any one quarter or historical patterns should not be considered indicative of our future sales activity, expenditure levels or performance.

In addition to other factors discussed in this section, factors that may contribute to the variability of our quarterly and annual results include:

•impacts of changes in our business model, including transitioning the pricing of promotions offerings from cost-per-acquisition to duration-based pricing and the degree of advertiser and retailer response to this transition, and increasing the proportion of self-service and automated offerings;

•business model changes that result in differences in accounting treatment, including whether revenue is recognized on a net or gross basis;

•our ability to adapt to changes in marketing goals, strategies and budgets of advertisers and retailers, and the timing of their marketing spend;

•our ability to maintain and grow the retailer component of our network, expand our network with new verticals, and increase our number of network partners and publishers;

•our ability to maintain and expand our data rights with our retailer network;

•our ability to leverage retailer demands to increase CPG spend on retailer performance media;

•the impact of competitors or competitive products and services, and our ability to compete in digital marketing;

•the impact of pricing pressures from our competitors, advertisers or CPGs, and agencies representing advertisers or CPGs;

•the impact of increasing media acquisition and data acquisition costs;

•the impact of litigation involving us, our industry or both, including investigations by regulators or claims made by our competitors or other third parties;

•reduction in demand or volatility in demand for one or more of our products, which may be caused by, among other things: delay or cancellation of marketing campaigns by advertisers and retailers as they focus on manufacturing in-demand products, replenishing out-of-stock items, adjusting to changes in consumer purchasing behavior, contending with supply-chain challenges, and other issues arising out of the COVID-19 pandemic;

•disruption of planned themed marketing campaigns by advertisers and retailers, including campaigns that have been adversely impacted by shelter-in-place orders and social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic;

•reduction in overall media spend by advertisers in reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic, which primarily had a negative effect on our media business starting in the first half of 2020, and despite a return of bookings

52

beginning in the second half of 2020, could have an adverse effect through 2022 depending on the ultimate severity and duration of the pandemic and the governmental responses thereto;

•our ability to grow existing consumer usage of, and attract new consumers to, our digital promotion offerings and more generally to interactions with our platforms, including through our retailer partner sites and our publisher network;

•our ability to obtain and increase the number of high quality promotions;

•changes in consumer behavior with respect to digital promotions and media, how consumers access digital promotions and media, and our ability to develop applications that are widely accepted and generate revenues for advertisers, retailers and us;

•our ability to control costs including the costs of obtaining consumer data and investing, maintaining and enhancing our technology infrastructure;

•increased legal and compliance costs associated with data protection laws and regulations in various jurisdictions, including the CCPA, which went into effect on January 1, 2020, and invalidation of the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield framework and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework in July 2020 and September 2020, respectively;

•the costs of developing new products, solutions and enhancements to our platforms;

•whether new products successfully launch on time;

•our ability to manage our growth, including scaling our platforms;

•our ability to manage innovation, including extent of investments in and success in deploying new offerings, and our ability to manage transitions from legacy platforms and solutions to new platforms and solutions such as those with self-service and automation capabilities;

•the success of our sales and marketing efforts;

•the costs of successfully integrating acquired companies and employees into our operations;

•changes in the legislative or regulatory environment, including with respect to privacy and data protection, or enforcement by government regulators, including fines, orders, or consent decrees;

•our ability to deal effectively with fraudulent transactions or customer disputes;

•our ability to collect payment for services timely, as any significant persistence or worsening of the COVID-19 pandemic; supply chain challenges, and inflation may cause liquidity issues for some of our customers;

•the attraction and retention of qualified employees and key personnel, whether or not related to changes in U.S. immigration policies;

•the effectiveness of our internal controls; and

•changes in accounting rules, tax laws or interpretations thereof.

The effects of these factors individually or in combination, including the continuing uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain issues, our business model changes and the resulting accounting changes, could cause our quarterly and annual operating results to fluctuate, as well as affect our ability to forecast those results and our ability to achieve those forecasts. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful. You should not rely on our past results as an indication of our future performance. This variability and unpredictability could also result in our failing to meet or exceeding the expectations of our investors or financial analysts for any period. In addition, we may release guidance in our quarterly earnings conference calls, quarterly earnings releases, investor day, or otherwise, based on predictions of our management, which are necessarily uncertain in nature. The guidance provided depends on our predictions relating to demand for our platforms, the rate and extent of market acceptance to our business model changes, maintaining and growing our retailer network and the cost of maintaining retailer partnerships, and the expansion of our network audience through publishing distribution and other partnerships, which predictions can fluctuate greatly and are beyond our control. Our guidance may vary materially from actual results. If our revenue or operating results, or the rate of growth of our revenue or operating results, fall below or above the expectations of our investors or financial analysts, or below or above any forecasts or guidance we may provide to the market, or if the forecasts we provide to the market are below or above the expectations of analysts or investors, the price of our common stock could

53

decline or increase substantially. Such a stock price decline or increase could occur even when we have met our own or other publicly stated revenue or earnings forecasts. Failure to meet our publicly stated revenue or earnings forecasts, or even when we meet our own forecasts but fall short of analyst or investor expectations, could cause our stock price to decline and expose us to costly lawsuits, including securities class action suits. Such litigation against us could impose substantial costs and divert our management’s attention and resources. If we exceed our own or other publicly stated revenue or earnings forecasts, or even when we meet our own forecasts but exceed analyst or investor expectations, our stock price could increase.

If we are unable to successfully respond to changes in the digital promotions market, our business could be negatively affected.

As consumer demand for digital promotions has increased, promotion spending has shifted from traditional promotions through traditional offline or analog channels, such as newspapers and direct mail, to digital coupons. Although we expect advertisers to reduce and eventually stop spending on the offline free standing insert ("FSI"), our expectations regarding the timing of such change or our expectations that advertisers will shift some of their FSI budgets to our platforms or about the timing of such shifts, may not be accurate. It is also difficult to predict whether advertisers will decide to shift FSI budgets to other marketing channels if digital promotions lose favor with advertisers, retailers or consumers. For example, some large retailers do not yet use digital paperless promotions. In the event of these or any other changes to the market, our continued success will depend on our ability to successfully adjust our strategy to meet the changing market dynamics. We will need to continue to grow demand for our platforms by advertisers, retailers and consumers, including through continued innovation and implementation of new initiatives associated with digital promotions. If a retailer decides not to accept digital paperless promotions, if advertisers reduce spend in digital promotions, or if advertisers choose our competitors’ products and services, our business could be negatively affected.

If the demand for digital promotions does not continue to grow as we expect, or if we fail to successfully address this demand, our business will be harmed. For example, the growth of our revenue and gross margins require increasing or maintaining the number of brands that are using our promotions platforms within each CPG. If our projections regarding the adoption and usage of our promotions platforms by retailers, advertisers (including CPGs) and consumers do not occur or are slower than expected, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects will be harmed. Even if we are successful in driving the adoption and usage of promotions platforms by retailers, advertisers and consumers, if our fee arrangements (including the shift to duration-based pricing) or transaction volumes, or the mix and quality of offers, change or do not meet our projections, our revenues may be negatively affected. We expect that the market will evolve in ways which may be difficult to predict.

For example, if consumer demand for our national and shopper promotions or our mobile applications does not grow as we expect or decreases, our business may be negatively affected. Also, the success of our transitioning the pricing of promotions offerings from cost-per-acquisition to duration-based pricing depends on meeting forecasted campaign outcomes, and if we do not deliver the forecasted outcomes, advertisers may not respond to this pricing model transition to the degree we anticipate, and our business could be adversely impacted. More generally, if we are unable to grow or successfully respond to changes in the digital promotions market, our business could be negatively affected and our results of operations could be negatively impacted. Our revenues may also be negatively affected if we are unable to manage the pricing model transition, or if the growth of digital paperless coupons is slower than the decline in digital print coupons. Conversely, acceleration of this shift (for example, through greater-than-expected acceptance of digital paperless coupons by new retailers) could lead to unanticipated increases in revenue.

If we fail to maintain and expand the use by consumers of digital promotions on our platforms, our revenues and business will be negatively affected.

We must continue to maintain and expand the use by consumers of digital promotions on our owned-and-operated sites, on retailer sites and on our publisher network in order to increase the attractiveness of our platforms to advertisers and retailers, and to increase revenues and achieve profitability. If consumers do not perceive that we offer a broad selection of relevant and high-quality digital promotions, or that the usage of digital promotions is easy and convenient through our platforms, we may not be able to attract or retain consumers. In addition, as consumer behavior in accessing digital promotions changes and new distribution channels emerge, if we do not successfully respond and do not develop products or solutions that are widely accepted, we may be unable to retain consumers or attract new consumers, and as a result our business may suffer. One of our growth strategies is to increase the number of consumers using digital promotions on our platforms through growth and expansion of our publisher

54

network. If we do not add new network partners or our partners do not experience increased consumer use of digital promotions on our platforms as expected, our revenues and business will be harmed. We also depend on our retail and other network partners to devote sufficient time, resources or funds to the promotion of our platforms and the marketing of our digital promotions to consumers. If we are unable to maintain and expand the use by consumers of digital promotions on our platforms and consumer properties, as well as the digital properties and channels of retailers and other publishers in our network, or if we do not do so to a greater extent than our competitors, advertisers may find that offering digital promotions on our platforms do not reach consumers with the scale and effectiveness that is compelling to them. Likewise, if retailers find that use of our platforms does not increase sales of the promoted products and consumer loyalty to the retailer to the extent they expect, the revenues we generate may not increase to the extent we expect, or may decrease. Any of these could harm our business. Additionally, consumer shopping behavior has changed dramatically in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. For instance, shoppers continue to minimize shopping trips, continue to rely on online grocery shopping, and continue to adjust buying habits in response to their lifestyles having been impacted by state and local orders and social distancing. If consumers decide not to use our products that involve paper as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and do not find our purely digital products compelling, our business could be harmed.

Competition presents an ongoing threat to the success of our business.

We expect competition in digital marketing to continue to increase. This industry is competitive, fragmented and rapidly changing. We compete against a variety of companies with respect to different aspects of our business, including:

•providers of digital promotions such as Valassis Communications, Inc.; Catalina Marketing Corporation’s Cellfire; Inmar/You Technology; Neptune Retail Services’ (formerly known as News America Marketing) SmartSource; companies that offer cash back solutions such as iBotta, Inc.; and Neptune Retail Services’ Checkout 51;

•offline coupon and discount services, as well as newspapers, magazines and other traditional media companies that provide coupon promotions and discounts on products and services in FSIs or other forms, including Valassis Communications, Inc., Neptune Retail Services and Catalina Marketing Corporation;

•retailers who develop and manage, with or without a third-party vendor, digital advertising or data products in-house, such as Albertsons' recently-announced launch of the Albertsons Media Collective, or The Kroger Company ("Kroger") with its wholly owned subsidiary of 84.51°;

•companies offering online and marketing services to retailers and advertisers, such as Flipp Corp.; and

•companies offering digital advertising technology, inventory, data, and services solutions and channels for advertisers and retailers including: Meta Platforms, Inc.( doing business as Facebook), Alphabet, Inc. ("Alphabet"), Pinterest, Inc., Amazon.com, Inc. ("Amazon"), Adobe Inc., The Trade Desk Inc., Oracle Corporation, Criteo S.A., Microsoft Corporation, Publicis Groupe's CitrusAd, and others.

In certain instances, we have entered into, and in the future we may enter into, strategic alliances or partnerships with companies that are competitors in other areas of our business. We believe the principal factors that generally determine a company’s competitive advantage in our market include the following:

•scale and effectiveness of reach in connecting advertisers and retailers to consumers in a digital manner, through web, mobile and other digital properties;

•scale and reach of a company's retailer network;

•scale and reach of a company's targetable audience data;

•ability to attract consumers to a company's platform;

•platform security, usability, scalability, reliability and availability;

•integration with retailer applications, POS systems, and consumer channels;

•access to consumer data;

•measurement that demonstrates the effectiveness of campaigns;

•quality of tools, reporting and analytics for planning, development and optimization of digital marketing campaigns;

55

•integration of products and solutions;

•rapid deployment of products and services for customers;

•breadth, quality and relevance of a company's solutions;

•ability to deliver high quality and increasing numbers of digital promotions that are widely available and easy to use in consumers’ preferred form;

•brand recognition and reputation; and

•ability to recruit, retain and train employees.

We are subject to competition from large, well-established companies which have significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than we do, and which have offerings that compete with our platforms or may choose to offer digital promotions and media and audiences as an add-on to their core business on their own or in partnership with one of our competitors that would directly compete with ours. Many of our larger actual and potential competitors have the resources to significantly change the nature of the digital promotions industry to their advantage, which could materially disadvantage us. For example, Alphabet and Facebook, retailers such as Kroger and online retailers such as Amazon have highly trafficked industry platforms which they have leveraged, or could leverage, to distribute digital promotions and media that could negatively affect our business. In addition, these potential competitors may have greater access to first-party data, and may be able to respond more quickly than we can to new or emerging technologies and changes in consumer habits. These competitors may engage in more extensive research and development efforts, undertake more far-reaching marketing campaigns and adopt more aggressive pricing policies, which may allow them to attract more consumers and, as a result, more advertisers and retailers, and thereby generate revenues more effectively than we do. Our competitors may offer digital promotions or targeted media campaigns that are similar to the digital promotions and targeted media campaigns we offer or that achieve greater market acceptance than those we offer. We are also subject to competition from smaller companies that launch similar or new products and services that we do not offer and that could gain market acceptance. We may also face claims or lawsuits from our competitors. For example, in February 2021, Catalina Marketing Corporation filed a complaint against us, alleging that we engaged in predatory pricing practices and misleading communications with potential customers in connection with our in-lane promotions solution, and in June 2021, Result Marketing Group, Ltd. filed a complaint against us, alleging misappropriation of trade secrets, interference with contract, interference with prospective business relationships and unjust enrichment. While we believe that these claims are without merit, these matters could cause us to incur substantial costs and resources defending against the claims, could distract our management from our business and could cause uncertainty among our customers or prospective customers, all of which could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our success depends on the effectiveness of our platforms in connecting advertisers and retailers with consumers, and in attracting consumer use of the digital promotions and media delivered through our platforms. To the extent we fail to provide digital promotions and media for high quality, relevant products, or otherwise fail to successfully reach consumers on their mobile devices or elsewhere, consumers may become dissatisfied with our platforms and decide not to use our digital promotions, not interact with our digital media, and/or elect to use or view instead the digital promotions and media distributed by one of our competitors. As a result of these factors, our advertisers and retailers may not receive the benefits they expect, advertisers may opt to use the offerings of one of our competitors, and retailers may elect to handle promotions and media themselves or exclude us from integrating with their in-store and POS systems or with consumer channels. In any of these circumstances, our operating results would be adversely affected. Similarly, if retailers elect to use a competitive distribution network or platform, or develop their own solution in-house and we do not have, or fail to maintain, an agreement to distribute content through that network or platform, advertisers may elect to provide digital promotions and media directly to that network or platform, instead of through our platforms. Additionally, if retailers and advertisers require our platforms to integrate with competitive offerings instead of using our products, we could lose some of our competitive advantage and our business could be negatively affected.

We also face significant competition for trade promotion and marketing spending. We compete against online and mobile businesses, including those referenced above, and traditional advertising outlets, such as television, radio and print, for marketing dollar spending (also referred to as "spend"). In order to grow our revenues and improve our operating results, we must increase our share of advertiser spending on digital promotions and media relative to traditional sources and relative to our competitors, many of whom are larger companies that offer more traditional and widely accepted media products.

56

We also directly compete with retailers who develop and manage, with or without a third-party vendor, digital advertising or data products in-house, such as Albertsons' recently-announced launch of the Albertsons Media Collective, or The Kroger Company with its wholly owned subsidiary of 84.51°. Specifically, many retailers market and offer their own digital advertising solutions, including retailer performance media, targetable audiences and sponsored search, directly to advertisers. We also compete with retailers directly and indirectly for consumer traffic. Retailers will market promotions and media directly to consumers using their own websites, email newsletters and alerts, mobile applications, and social media channels. Additionally, some retailers also market and offer their own digital promotions and media directly to consumers using our platforms for which we earn no revenue. Our retailers could be more successful than we are at marketing their own digital promotions and media, develop or expand their own in-house capabilities or decide to manage retailer performance media in-house, and accordingly could decide to terminate their relationship with us or renew the relationship on less favorable terms than existed previously.

We may face competition from companies we do not yet know about. If existing or new companies develop, market or offer competitive digital coupon solutions, acquire one of our existing competitors or form a strategic alliance with one of our competitors, our ability to compete effectively could be significantly compromised and our operating results could be negatively affected. For example, in March 2019, Inmar announced that it completed the acquisition of Kroger’s subsidiary You Technology and entered into a long-term service agreement to provide digital coupon services to the Kroger family of stores. Following this acquisition, Inmar terminated our agreement with You Technology as of December 2019. This adversely affected our ability to distribute digital promotions through You Technology, which generated less than 5% of our revenue in 2019.

We depend in part on advertising agencies as intermediaries, and if we fail to develop and maintain these relationships, our business may be negatively affected.

A growing portion of our business is conducted with advertising agencies acting on behalf of advertisers and retailers. Advertising agencies are instrumental in assisting advertisers and retailers to plan, manage and purchase media and promotions, and each advertising agency generally allocates media and promotion spend from advertisers and retailers across numerous channels. As advertising agencies represent the marketing budgets of multiple advertisers and retailers, we expect they will be able to exert more pricing pressure on us. We are still developing relationships with, and do not have exclusive relationships with, advertising agencies and we depend in part on advertising agencies to work with us as they embark on marketing campaigns for advertisers and retailers. While in most cases we have developed relationships directly with advertisers and retailers, we nevertheless depend in part on advertising agencies to present to their advertiser and retailer clients the merits of our platforms.

Because they act on behalf of our advertiser customers, advertising agencies are an area of business focus for us, not only as regards utilization of our legacy platforms but also, and especially, our newer self-service and automated solutions. Accordingly, inaccurate descriptions of our legacy or newer self-service/automated platforms by advertising agencies, over whom we have no control; negative recommendations by advertising agencies regarding use of our offerings; or failure by advertising agencies to mention our platforms at all could hurt our business. In addition, if an advertising agency is disappointed with our platforms on a particular campaign or generally, we risk losing the business of the advertiser or retailer for whom the campaign was run, and the business of other advertisers and retailers represented by that agency. Since many advertising agencies are affiliated with other advertising agencies in a larger corporate structure, if we fail to develop and maintain good relations with one advertising agency in such an organization, we may lose business from the affiliated advertising agencies as well.

Our sales could be adversely impacted by industry changes relating to the use of advertising agencies. Moreover, to the extent that we do not have a direct relationship with advertisers or retailers, the value we provide to advertisers and retailers may be attributed to the advertising agency rather than to us, further limiting our ability to develop long-term relationships directly with advertisers and retailers. Advertisers and retailers may move from one advertising agency to another, and we may lose the underlying business. The presence of advertising agencies as intermediaries between us and the advertisers and retailers thus creates a challenge to building our own brand awareness and affinity with the advertisers and retailers that are the ultimate source of our revenues. In addition, advertising agencies conducting business with us could develop similar digital marketing solutions. As such, these advertising agencies are, or may become, our competitors. If they further develop their own capabilities, they may be more likely to offer their own solutions to advertisers, and our ability to compete effectively could be significantly compromised and our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

57

Our failure to attract, integrate and retain other highly qualified personnel in the future could harm our business, and in the near term is an increasing challenge due to market conditions and strategic transitions in our business.

As an industry-leading digital promotions and media company we compete for sales, engineering and other technical talent in a highly competitive environment against large, well-established technology companies and well-funded start-ups, which have significantly greater financial and other resources than we do. If we do not succeed in attracting, hiring and integrating qualified personnel, or retaining and motivating existing personnel, we may be unable to grow effectively and our operating results may be harmed.

Following the easing of the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions in 2021, we have experienced higher employee attrition and an increasingly competitive market for talent, as factors associated with the so-called Great Resignation have impacted our company as they have other companies. In addition, if changes in our business such as the transformation of our business strategy and business model and the related operational changes in various areas of our business such as sales, cause us to experience a higher-than-anticipated attrition in certain key areas of our business or if we are unable to hire and onboard new talent quickly enough to materially meet operational needs, our results of operations could be negatively impacted.

We may be limited in our ability to recruit global talent by U.S. immigration laws, including those related to H1-B visas. The demand for H1-B visas to fill highly-skilled technology and computer science jobs is greater than the number of H-1B visas available each year. To the extent that the immigration-related regulatory environment, including H1-B visa availability, hampers our ability to recruit, hire and retain qualified skilled personnel, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely impacted.

The effects of health epidemics, including the COVID-19 pandemic, have had, and may continue to have, an adverse impact on our business, operations and the markets and communities in which we and our partners operate.

Our business and operations have been and may continue to be adversely affected by health epidemics, including the recent COVID-19 pandemic, impacting the markets and communities in which we and our partners operate. In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, causing a disease referred to as COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. Since then, COVID-19 has spread to many countries worldwide, including the United States.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many state, local and foreign governments have put in place, and others in the future may put in place, quarantines, executive orders, shelter-in-place orders and similar government orders and restrictions in order to control the spread of the disease. Such orders or restrictions, or the perception that such orders or restrictions could occur, have resulted in business closures, work stoppages, slowdowns and delays, work-from-home policies, travel restrictions and cancellation of events, among other effects that could negatively impact productivity and disrupt our operations and those of our partners. Certain jurisdictions lifted such orders or restrictions only to return to these restrictions in the face of increases in new COVID-19 cases, even as vaccination efforts are being undertaken throughout the United States and in certain other countries. Although as of the spring of 2022 the pace of removing restrictions is increasing, the residual effects of such restrictions and prolonged alternative working arrangements are unknown and the eventual effectiveness of the vaccination efforts likewise remains uncertain, and these may negatively impact the productivity of our employee base and have a disproportionately negative impact on our sales and operations functions, which could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, and financial condition.

In addition, the potential ultimate impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and on our business in particular are difficult to assess or predict. A recession or market correction resulting from the spread of new or existing variants of COVID-19 and its impacts could decrease marketing spend, particularly in media, adversely affecting the demand for our solutions, the growth of our business, and the value of our common stock. While we have seen advertisers or CPGs maintain or increase their spend on promotions during economic downturns, there is no guarantee they will do so in a future economic downturn, including one that may be presently taking shape due to the persistence of the COVID-19 pandemic or inflationary pressures brought about as a consequence of the pandemic.

The global COVID-19 pandemic continues to rapidly evolve, and we will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely. The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or a similar health epidemic is highly uncertain and subject to change, even in light of the vaccination efforts that have been ongoing. We do not yet know the full extent

58

of potential delays or impacts on our business, operations or the global economy as a whole. The COVID-19 pandemic, and the various responses to it, may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks discussed in this “Risk Factors” section.

Acquisitions, joint ventures and strategic investments could result in operating difficulties, dilution and other harmful consequences.

We have acquired a number of businesses, and expect to continue to evaluate and consider a wide array of potential strategic transactions, including acquisitions and dispositions of businesses, joint ventures, technologies, services, products and other assets and strategic investments. At any given time, we may be engaged in discussions or negotiations with respect to one or more of these types of transactions. Any of these transactions could be material to our financial condition and results of operations. The process of integrating any acquired business may create unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures, and is itself risky. The areas where we may face difficulties include:

•expected and unexpected costs incurred in identifying and pursuing strategic transactions and performing due diligence regarding potential strategic transactions that may or may not be successful;

•failure of an acquired company to achieve anticipated revenue, earnings, cash flows or other desired technological and business goals;

•effectiveness of our due diligence review and our ability to evaluate the results of such due diligence, which are dependent upon the accuracy and completeness of statements and disclosures made by the acquired company;

•diversion of management time, as well as a shift of focus, from operating the businesses to issues related to integration and administration;

•disputes as a result of certain terms and conditions of our transactions, such as payment of contingent consideration, compliance with covenants, or closing adjustments;

•the need to integrate technical operations and security protocols, which may lead to significant security breaches of, technical difficulties with, or interruptions to, the delivery and use of our products and services;

•the need to integrate the acquired company’s accounting, management, information, human resource and other administrative systems to permit effective management, and the lack of control if such integration is delayed or not implemented;

•retention of key employees from the acquired company and cultural challenges associated with integrating employees from the acquired company into our organization;

•the need to implement or improve, to standards appropriate for a public company, controls, procedures and policies of acquired companies that, prior to acquisition, had lacked such controls, procedures and policies;

•in some cases, the need to transition operations and customers onto our existing platforms;

•in certain instances, the ability to exert control of acquired businesses that include earnout provisions in the agreements relating to such acquisitions or the potential obligation to fund an earnout for, or fulfill other obligations related to, a product that has not met expectations;

•the need to integrate operations across different geographies, cultures and languages, and to address the particular economic, currency, political and regulatory risks associated with specific countries;

•liability for activities of the acquired company before the acquisition, including violations of laws, rules and regulations, commercial disputes, tax liabilities and other known and unknown liabilities;

•difficulties valuing intangibles related to acquired businesses, which could lead to write-offs or charges related to acquired assets or goodwill; and

•litigation or other claims in connection with the acquired company, including claims from terminated employees, users, former stockholders or other third parties, and intellectual property infringement claims.

For example, we have acquired businesses whose technologies are new to us and with which we did not have significant experience. We have made and are making investments of resources to support such acquisitions, which will result in ongoing operating expenses and may divert resources and management attention from other areas of our business. We cannot provide assurance that these investments and the integration of these

59

acquisitions will be successful. If we fail to successfully integrate the companies we acquire, we may not realize the benefits expected from the transaction and our business may be negatively impacted.

Our failure to address these risks or other problems encountered in connection with our past or future acquisitions and investments could cause us to fail to realize the anticipated benefits of any or all of our acquisitions or joint ventures, or we may not realize them within the expected time frame, or could cause us to incur unanticipated liabilities, in any or all such instances potentially harming our business. Future acquisitions or joint ventures may require us to issue dilutive additional equity securities, spend a substantial portion of our available cash, incur debt or contingent liabilities, amortize expenses related to intangible assets or incur incremental operating expenses or write-offs of goodwill or impaired acquired intangible assets, which could adversely affect our results of operations and harm our business.

If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our business and financial performance may suffer.

We have significantly expanded our operations and anticipate expanding further to pursue our growth strategy. Through acquisitions we have added multiple additional offices within the last three years, and during that period we moved our principal executive offices to Salt Lake City, Utah from Mountain View, California. Such office expansion and transition, with the majority of our personnel being scheduled to return to the office in the second quarter of 2022, increases the complexity of our business and places significant demands on our management, operations, technical performance, financial resources and internal control over financial reporting functions. Continued growth could strain our ability to deliver solutions on our platforms; develop and improve our operational, financial, legal and management controls; and enhance our reporting systems and procedures. Failure to manage our expansion may limit our growth, damage our reputation and negatively affect our financial performance and harm our business.

To effectively manage this growth, we will need to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls, and our reporting systems and procedures. If we do not effectively manage the growth of our business and operations, the scalability of our business and our operating results could suffer.

Our current and planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support and effectively manage our future operations. We may not be able to hire, train, retain, motivate and manage required personnel. As we continue to grow, we must effectively integrate, develop and motivate a large number of new employees. We intend to continue to expand our research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative organizations, and over time, expand our international operations. To attract top talent, we have had to offer, and believe we will need to continue to offer, highly competitive compensation packages before we can validate the productivity of those employees. If we fail to effectively manage our hiring needs and successfully integrate our new hires, our efficiency and ability to meet our forecasts and our employee morale, productivity and retention could suffer, and our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

Providing our products and services to our advertisers, retailers and consumers is costly, and we expect our expenses to continue to increase in the future as we grow our business with existing and new advertisers and retailers, and as we develop new products and services that require enhancements to our technology infrastructure. In addition, our operating expenses, such as our sales, marketing and engineering expenses, are expected to continue to grow to support our anticipated future growth. As a result of the requirements of being a public company we incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses. Our expenses may grow faster than our revenues, and our expenses may be greater than we anticipate. Managing our growth will require significant expenditures and allocation of valuable management resources. If we fail to achieve the necessary level of efficiency in our organization as it grows, our business, operating results and financial condition would be negatively affected.

If our websites or those of our publishers fail to rank prominently in unpaid search results from search engines, traffic to our websites could decline and our business would be adversely affected.

Our success depends in part on our ability to attract consumers through unpaid Internet search results on search engines, such as Alphabet's search engine called Google. The number of consumers we attract to our websites from search engines is due in large part to how and where our websites rank in unpaid search results. These rankings can be affected by a number of factors, many of which are not in our direct control, and they may change frequently. For example, major search engines frequently modify their ranking algorithms, methodologies or design layouts. As a result, links to our websites may not be prominent enough to drive traffic to our websites or we may receive less favorable placement which could reduce traffic to our website, and we may not know how or otherwise be in a position to influence the results. In some instances, search engine companies may change these

60

rankings in order to promote their own competing products or services or the products or services of one or more of our competitors. Our websites have experienced fluctuations in search result rankings in the past, and we anticipate fluctuations in the future. For example, the search result rankings of our websites at times have fallen relative to the same time in the prior year. In addition, websites must comply with search engine guidelines and policies. These guidelines and policies are complex and may change at any time. If we fail to follow such guidelines and policies properly, search engines may rank our content lower in search results or could remove our content altogether from their index. Moreover, the use of voice recognition technology, such as Amazon's Alexa, Google Assistant or Apple's Siri, may drive traffic away from search engines, which could reduce traffic to our website. Any reduction in the number of consumers directed to our websites could reduce the effectiveness of our coupon codes for specialty retailers and digital promotions for advertisers and retailers and could adversely impact our business and results of operations. It could also reduce our ability to sell media advertising on our sites, which would negatively impact revenues and harm our business.

Failure to deal effectively with fraudulent or other improper transactions could harm our business.

Digital promotions can be in the form of redeemable coupons, coupon codes with unique identifiers, loyalty card linked offers, and national rebates. It is possible that third parties may create counterfeit digital coupons, coupon codes, exceed print or use limits in order, or submit fraudulent receipts or the same receipt twice to fraudulently or improperly claim discounts or credits for redemption. If we are unable to identify fraudulent national rebates claims before we pay out cash for these claims, we might be unable to get reimbursement from our customers. It is possible that individuals will circumvent our anti-fraud systems using increasingly sophisticated methods or methods that our anti-fraud systems are not able to counteract. Further, we may not detect any of these unauthorized activities in a timely manner. Third parties who succeed in circumventing our anti-fraud systems may sell the fraudulent or fraudulently obtained digital coupons on social networks or claim discounts, credits or rebates that they are not entitled to, which would damage our brand and relationships with advertisers and harm our business. Legal measures we take or attempt to take against these third parties may be costly and may not be ultimately successful. In addition, our service could be subject to employee fraud or other internal security breaches, and we may be required to reimburse advertisers and retailers for any funds stolen or revenues lost as a result of such breaches. Our advertisers and retailers could also request reimbursement, or stop using our platforms and products, if they are affected by buyer fraud or other types of fraud. We may incur significant losses from fraud and counterfeit digital coupons and receipts. If our anti-fraud technical and legal measures do not succeed, our business may suffer.

Indemnity provisions in various agreements and our corporate documents potentially expose us to substantial liability for intellectual property infringement and other claims.

Our agreements with advertisers, retailers and other third parties may include indemnification provisions under which we agree to indemnify them for losses suffered or incurred as a result of claims of intellectual property infringement or other liabilities relating to or arising from our products, services or other contractual obligations including those relating to data use and consumer consent. The term of these indemnity provisions generally survives termination or expiration of the applicable agreement.

In addition, in accordance with our bylaws and pursuant to indemnification agreements entered into with directors, officers and certain employees, we have indemnification obligations for claims brought against these persons arising out of certain events or occurrences while they are serving at our request in such capacities. For example, our founder and CEO is subject to a claim from a third party, alleging that he owes certain amounts to the third party in connection with fundraising activities for Quotient that occurred between 1998 and 2006. We agreed to advance certain defense costs, subject to an undertaking to repay us such amounts if, and to the extent that, it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemnification. The matter is ongoing. If this matter is resolved in favor of the third party and if we are required to indemnify our founder and CEO for a loss, we may be required to make an indemnity payment. While we maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, such insurance may not be applicable, be adequate, or cover all liabilities that we may incur.

Large indemnity payments, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material impact on our financial position.

Our business depends on strong brands, and if we are not able to maintain and enhance our brands, or if we receive unfavorable media coverage, our ability to retain and expand our number of advertisers, retailers and consumers will be impaired and our business and operating results will be negatively affected.

61

We believe that the brand identity that we have developed has significantly contributed to the success of our business. We also believe that maintaining and enhancing our brand is critical to expanding our base of advertisers, retailers and consumers. Maintaining and enhancing our brands may require us to make substantial investments and these investments may not be successful. If we fail to promote and maintain our brands, or if we incur excessive expenses in this effort, our business would be negatively affected. We anticipate that, as our market becomes increasingly competitive, maintaining and enhancing our brands may become increasingly difficult and expensive.

Unfavorable publicity or consumer perception of our websites, mobile applications, platforms, practices or service offerings, or the offerings of our advertisers and retailers, could adversely affect our reputation, resulting in difficulties in recruiting, decreased revenues and a negative impact on the number of advertisers and retailers we feature, our user base, the loyalty of our consumers, and the number and variety of digital coupons that we offer. As a result, our business could be negatively affected.

Our use of and reliance on international research and development resources and operations may expose us to unanticipated costs or events.

We have research and development centers in India, France, and Israel. We expect to increase our headcount, development, and operations activity in Israel. There is no assurance that our reliance upon international research and development resources and operations will enable us to achieve our research and development and operational goals or enable us to achieve greater resource efficiency. Further, our international research and development and operations efforts involve significant risks, including:

•difficulty hiring and retaining appropriate personnel due to intense competition for such resources and resulting wage inflation in the cities where our research and development activities and operations are located;

•different labor regulations, especially in the European Union ("EU"), where labor laws are generally more advantageous to employees as compared to United States, including deemed hourly wage and overtime regulations in these locations;

•exposure to liabilities under anti-corruption and anti-money laundering laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, and similar applicable laws and regulations in other jurisdictions;

•delays and inefficiencies caused by geographical separation of our international research and development activities and operations, as well as other challenges inherent to efficiently managing an increased number of employees over large geographic distances, including the need to implement appropriate systems, policies, benefits and compliance programs;

•the knowledge transfer related to our technology and the resulting exposure to misappropriation of intellectual property or information that is proprietary to us, our customers and other third parties;

•heightened exposure to change in the economic, security and political conditions in the countries where our research and development activities and operations are located;

•fluctuations in currency exchange rates and regulatory compliance in the countries where our research and development activities and operations are located; and

•interruptions to our operations in the countries where our research and development activities and operations are located as a result of floods and other natural catastrophic events, as well as other events beyond our control such as power disruptions, terrorism or the persistence of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Difficulties resulting from the factors above could increase our research and development or operational expenses, delay the introduction of new products, or impact our product quality, the occurrence of any of which could adversely affect our business and operating results.

If we fail to expand effectively in international markets, our revenues and our business may be negatively affected.

We currently generate almost all of our revenues from the United States. We also operate to a limited extent in the United Kingdom, France and other countries in Europe. Many advertisers and retailers on our platforms have global operations, and we plan to grow our operations and offerings through expansion in existing international markets and by partnering with our advertisers and retailers to enter new geographies that are important to them.

62

Further expansion into international markets will require management attention and resources, and we have limited experience entering new geographic markets. Entering new foreign markets will require us to localize our services to conform to a wide variety of local cultures, business practices, laws and policies. The different commercial, privacy and Internet infrastructure frameworks in other countries may make it more difficult for us to replicate our business model in non-U.S. locations. In some countries, we will compete with local companies that understand the local market better than we do, and we may not benefit from first-to-market advantages. We may not be successful in expanding into particular international markets or in generating revenues from foreign operations. As we expand internationally, we will be subject to risks of doing business internationally, including the following:

•competition with strong local competitors and preference for local providers, or competition with foreign companies entering the same markets;

•the cost and resources required to localize our platforms;

•burdens of complying with a wide variety of different laws and regulations, including intellectual property laws and regulation of digital coupons and media, Internet services, privacy and data protection, marketing and consumer protection laws; anti-competition regulations; and different liability standards, any of which may limit or prevent us from offering of our solutions in some jurisdictions or limit our ability to enforce contractual obligations;

•differences in how trade marketing spend is allocated;

•differences in the way digital promotions and media are delivered and how consumers access and use digital promotions;

•technology compatibility;

•difficulties in recruiting and retaining qualified employees and managing foreign operations;

•different employee/employer relationships and the existence of workers’ councils and labor unions;

•shorter payment cycles, different accounting practices and greater problems in collecting accounts receivable;

•higher product return rates;

•seasonal reductions in business activity;

•adverse tax effects and foreign exchange controls making it difficult to repatriate earnings and cash; and

•political and economic instability.

Our planned corporate structure and intercompany arrangements will be implemented in a manner we believe is in compliance with current prevailing tax laws. However, the tax benefits which we intend to eventually derive could be undermined if we are unable to adapt the manner in which we operate our business in response to changing tax laws.

Our failure to manage these risks and challenges successfully could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Government Regulation, Tax Law or Accounting Standards

Our business is subject to complex and evolving laws, regulations and industry standards, and unfavorable interpretations of, or changes in, or our actual and perceived failure to comply with these laws, regulations and industry standards could substantially harm our business and results of operations.

We collect, receive, access, generate, store, disclose, share, make accessible, protect, secure, and dispose of, and use (collectively "Process" or "Processing") business and personal information belonging to our users and customers. Because of this, we are subject to a variety of foreign, federal, state, local and municipal laws, regulations and industry standards that relate to privacy, electronic communications, data protection, intellectual property, eCommerce, competition, price discrimination, consumer protection, taxation, and the use of promotions. The number and scope of such laws, regulations and industry standards are changing, are subject to differing applications and interpretations and may be inconsistent among countries, or may conflict with other rules, laws or data protection obligations. We expect that there will continue to be new data protection laws and data protection obligations, and we cannot yet determine the impact such future laws and obligations may have on our business.

63

Many of these laws, regulations, and standards are still evolving and being tested in courts, and industry standards are still developing. As a result, the regulatory framework for privacy, information security, data protection and data Processing worldwide is, and is likely to remain, uncertain for the foreseeable future, and it is possible that these or other actual or alleged obligations may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another and may conflict with other rules or practices. Our business, including our ability to operate and expand, could be adversely affected if legislation, regulations or industry standards are adopted, interpreted or implemented in a manner that is inconsistent with our current business practices and that require changes to these practices or the design of our platforms. Existing and future laws, regulations and industry standards could restrict our operations, and our ability to retain or increase our advertisers and retailers and consumers’ use of digital promotions delivered on our platforms may be adversely affected, and we may not be able to maintain or grow our revenues as anticipated.

For example, California has enacted the CCPA, which affords consumers expanded privacy protections, has required us to modify our data processing practices and policies as well as caused us to incur substantial costs and expenses in an effort to comply. For example, the CCPA requires companies that process information on California residents to make new disclosures to consumers about their data collection, use and sharing practices, allows consumers to opt out of the sale of personal information with third parties, and provides a private right of action and statutory damages for data breaches. The CCPA also provides for civil penalties for violations, as well as a private right of action for data breaches that may increase the risk of data breach litigation, all of which may increase our compliance costs and potential liability. In addition, California voters approved the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, or CPRA, that goes into effect on January 1, 2023. The CPRA would, among other things, give California residents the ability to limit the use of their sensitive information, provide for penalties for CPRA violations concerning California residents under the age of 16, and establish a new California Privacy Protection Agency to implement and enforce the law.

The enactment of the CCPA has prompted a wave of similar legislative developments in other states in the United States, which could create the potential for a patchwork of overlapping but different state laws. Some observers have noted that the CCPA could mark the beginning of a trend toward more stringent privacy legislation in the United States, which could increase our potential liability and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. For example, Virginia, Colorado and Utah have passed comprehensive privacy legislation that impose obligations similar to, but not exactly the same as California laws, and many other states are considering their own privacy legislation. Compliance with any newly enacted privacy and data security laws or regulations may be challenging, costly and time-intensive, and we may be required to put in place additional mechanisms to comply with applicable legal requirements. Legislative initiatives in other states, to the extent that they become privacy and data security laws or regulations in such states, may have potentially conflicting requirements that would make compliance challenging. Some countries also are considering, or have passed legislation requiring, local storage and Processing of data, or similar requirements, which could increase the cost and complexity of operating our products and services and other aspects of our business.

Compliance with these and any other applicable privacy, data protection, data security, marketing and consumer protection guidelines, laws and regulations is a rigorous and time-intensive process, and we may be required to put in place additional mechanisms to ensure compliance with them. We believe our policies and practices comply in material respects with these guidelines, laws and regulations. However, if our belief is incorrect, if these guidelines, laws or regulations or their interpretations change, or if new legislation or regulations are enacted, we may face significant fines and penalties that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and result of operations. Further, we could be compelled to provide additional disclosures to our consumers, obtain additional consents from our consumers before collecting, using, or disclosing their information, or implement new safeguards or business processes to help individuals manage our use of their information. We also cannot control our retail partners’ approach or interpretation of evolving state or other new and emerging privacy laws and regulations, which may impact their willingness or ability to provide us data that our platforms and solutions are dependent upon, or the terms on which they are willing or able to provide it. Changes to our data sources may restrict our ability to maintain or grow our revenues as anticipated.

If our estimates or judgements relating to our critical accounting policies prove to be incorrect, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other

64

assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, as provided in the section of this Report titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities and equity, and the amount of revenue and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Significant assumptions and estimates used in preparing our consolidated financial statements include those related to business combinations, goodwill and intangible assets, treatment of our convertible senior notes, revenue recognition, promotion revenue, media revenue, gross versus net revenue reporting, arrangements with multiple performance obligations, stock-based compensation and provision for income taxes. For example, the recognition of our revenue is governed by certain criteria that determine whether we report revenue either on a gross basis, as a principal, or on a net basis, as an agent, depending upon the nature of the sales transaction. Historically, our media products revenue has generally been recognized on a gross basis. However, beginning the second quarter of 2020 and continuing thereafter, we have been making changes to the manner in which we process and deliver certain media products. These business changes, over time, have led to our recognizing a greater proportion of our media revenues on a net basis, as compared to the prior recognition on a gross basis, and we expect this will cause a decrease in our revenue growth and impact our revenues. At the same time, we continue to have gross reporting for other portions of our media products, as well as for other revenue. Our determinations are made in light of the evolution of our existing business practices, development of new products, acquisitions, or changes in accounting standards or interpretations, with transactions being evaluated for characteristics that dictate, as appropriate, gross or net reporting. It is also possible that revenue reporting for existing businesses may change from gross to net or vice versa as a result of changes in contract terms or transaction mechanics. We may experience significant fluctuations in revenue in future periods depending upon, in part, the nature of our sales and our reporting of such revenue and related accounting treatment, without proportionate correlation to our underlying activity or net income. Any combination of net and gross revenue reporting would require us to make estimates and assumptions about the mix of gross and net-reported transactions based upon the volumes and characteristics of the transactions that we believe will comprise the total mix of revenue in the period covered by the projection. Those estimates and assumptions may be inaccurate when made, or may be rendered inaccurate by subsequent circumstances, such as changing the characteristics of our offerings or particular transactions in response to client demands, market developments, regulatory pressures, acquisitions, and other factors. Even apparently minor changes in transaction terms from those initially envisioned can result in different accounting conclusions from those foreseen. In addition, we may incorrectly extrapolate, to future transactions, revenue recognition treatment of prior transactions that initially we believe to be similar but later are determined to have sufficiently different characteristics as to require a different revenue reporting treatment. These factors may make our financial reporting more complex and difficult for investors to understand, may make comparison of our results of operations to prior periods or other companies more difficult, may make it more difficult for us to give accurate guidance, and could increase the potential for reporting errors.

Our results of operations may be adversely affected if our assumptions change or if actual circumstances differ from those in our assumptions, which could cause our results of operations to fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, and thereby result in a decline in the trading price of our common stock.

Failure to comply with federal, state and foreign privacy, data protection, marketing and consumer protection laws, regulations and industry standards, or the expansion of current or the enactment or adoption of new privacy, data protection, marketing and consumer protection laws, regulations or industry standards, could adversely affect our business.

We Process data about consumers, including personally identifiable information or personal data, as well as other confidential or proprietary information necessary to operate our business, for legal and marketing purposes, and for other business-related purposes. We collect such information from individuals located both in the United States and abroad and may store or Process such information outside the country in which it was collected.

The legal and regulatory framework for privacy and security issues is rapidly evolving across the globe, and is expected to increase our compliance costs and exposure to liability. We and our service providers and partners are subject to a variety of federal, state and foreign laws, regulations and industry standards regarding privacy, data protection, data security, marketing and consumer protection, which address the Processing of data relating to individuals, as well as the tracking of consumer behavior and other consumer data (“Data Protection Laws”). We are also subject to laws, regulations and industry standards relating to endorsements and influencer marketing. Many of these laws, regulations and industry standards are changing and expanding, including those that offer consumers additional privacy rights with regard to profiling and online behavioral advertising. These laws, regulations and industry standards may be subject to differing interpretations, may be inconsistent among countries, may be costly

65

to comply with or inconsistent among jurisdictions, or may conflict with other rules, laws or Data Protection Obligations (defined below).

Various industry standards on privacy and data security have been developed and are expected to continue to develop, which standards may be adopted by industry participants at any time. We have committed to comply, and generally require our customers and partners to comply, with applicable self-regulatory principles such as the Network Advertising Initiative’s Code of Conduct and the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioral Advertising in the U.S. Trade associations and industry self-regulatory groups have also promulgated best practices and other industry standards relating to targeted advertising. Our efforts to comply with these self-regulatory principles include offering Internet users notice and choices about when advertising is served to them based, in part, on their interests. If we, our clients or partners make mistakes in the implementation of these principles, if self-regulatory bodies expand these guidelines or government authorities issue different guidelines regarding Internet-based advertising, if opt out mechanisms fail to work as designed, or if Internet users misunderstand our technology or our commitments with respect to these principles, we may be subject to negative publicity, government investigation, government or private litigation, or investigation by self-regulatory bodies or other accountability groups. Any such action against us or investigations of us, even if meritless, could be costly and time consuming, require us to change our business practices, cause us to divert management’s attention and our resources away from business activities, and be damaging to our brand, reputation, and business. In addition, privacy advocates and industry groups may propose new and different self-regulatory standards that legally apply to us. We cannot yet determine the impact such future standards may have on our business.

We are or may also be subject to the terms of our external and internal privacy and security policies, codes, representations, certifications, industry standards, publications and frameworks (“Privacy Policies”). We are also subject to contractual obligations to third parties related to privacy, data protection, and information security and Processing, including contractual obligations to indemnify and hold harmless third parties from the costs or consequences of non-compliance with Data Protection Laws or other obligations (“Data Protection Obligations”). Our solutions depend in part on our ability to use data that we obtain in connection with our offerings, and our ability to use this data may be subject to restrictions in our commercial agreements and subject to the privacy policies of the entities that provide us with this data. Our service providers or our partners’ failure to adhere to these third-party restrictions on data use may result in claims, proceedings or actions against us by our business counterparties or other parties, or may result in our incurring other liabilities, including loss of business, reputational damage, and remediation costs, which could adversely affect our business.

We expect that there will continue to be new Data Protection Laws and Data Protection Obligations, and we cannot yet determine the impact such future Data Protection Laws and Data Protection Obligations may have on our business. Any significant change to Data Protection Laws and Data Protection Obligations, including without limitation the manner in which the express or implied consent of customers for Processing is obtained, could increase our costs and require us to modify our operations, possibly in a material manner, which we may be unable to complete and which may limit our ability to store and Process data and operate our business. In particular, it should be noted that the AdTech industry has in the last few years received increased scrutiny from consumers, media outlets, regulators and lawmakers. Most recently this has been demonstrated by the €250,000 fine imposed on the Interactive Advertising Bureau Europe by the Belgian Data Protection Authority following an investigation into its Transparency and Consent Framework (“TCF”)--a framework adopted widely for the collection/management of consent to the use of cookies for targeted advertising in the EU. This decision will require us to reassess our reliance on the TCF.

Data Protection Laws and data protection worldwide is, and is likely to remain, uncertain for the foreseeable future, and our actual or perceived failure to address or comply with these laws could result in the following: increase our compliance and operational costs; limit our ability to market our products or services and attract new and retain current customers; limit or eliminate our ability to Process data; expose us to regulatory scrutiny, actions, investigations, fines and penalties; result in reputational harm; lead to a loss of business result in litigation and liability, including class action litigation; cause to incur significant costs, expenses and fees (including attorney fees); cause a material adverse impact to business operations or financial results; and otherwise result in other material harm to our business (“Adverse Data Protection Impact”).

We are subject to Data Protection Laws, Privacy Policies and Data Protection Obligations as well as applicable foreign, federal, state, local and municipal laws, regulations and industry standards that relate to electronic communications, intellectual property, eCommerce, competition, price discrimination, consumer

66

protection, taxation, and the use of promotions. We strive to comply with applicable laws, policies, contractual and other legal obligations as well as industry standards of conduct relating to privacy, data security, data protection, marketing and consumer protection to the extent possible, but we may at times fail to do so, or may be perceived to have failed to do so. These obligations and standards of conduct often are complex, vague, and difficult to comply with fully, and it is possible that these obligations and standards of conduct may be interpreted and applied in new ways and/ or in a manner that is inconsistent with each other or with new laws, regulations or other obligations that may be enacted.

Moreover, despite our efforts, we may not be successful in achieving compliance if our employees, partners or vendors do not comply with applicable Data Protection Laws, Privacy Policies and Data Protection Obligations. We may be subject to, and may experience, an Adverse Data Protection Impact if we fail (or are perceived to have failed) to comply with applicable Data Protection Laws, Privacy Policies and Data Protection Obligations, or if our Privacy Policies are, in whole or part, found to be inaccurate, incomplete, deceptive, unfair, or misrepresentative of our actual practices. In addition, any such failure or perceived failure could result in public statements against us by consumer advocacy groups, the media or others, which may cause us material reputational harm. Our actual or perceived failure to comply with Data Protection Laws, Privacy Policies and Data Protection Obligations could also subject us to litigation, claims, proceedings or actions, or to investigations by governmental entities, authorities or regulators, which could result in an Adverse Data Protection Impact including requiring changes to our business practices, causing the diversion of resources and the attention of management from our business, triggering regulatory oversights and audits, discontinuance of necessary Processing, or imposing other remedies that adversely affect our business.

We also expect that there will continue to be new laws, regulations, and industry standards concerning privacy, data protection, and information security proposed and enacted in various jurisdictions. In Europe, the General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679) (“EU GDPR”) went into effect in May 2018 and introduced strict requirements for Processing the personal data of data subjects. The EU GDPR has direct effect in all EU Member States and has extraterritorial effect where organizations outside of the European Economic Area ("EEA") Process personal data of individuals in the EEA in relation to the offering of goods or services to those individuals (“targeting test”) or the monitoring of their behavior (“monitoring test”). As such, the EU GDPR applies to us to the extent we are established in an EU Member State, we are Processing personal data in the context of an establishment in the EU, or we meet the requirements of either the targeting test or the monitoring test. Companies that must comply with the EU GDPR face increased compliance obligations and risk, including more robust regulatory enforcement of data protection requirements, an order prohibiting Processing of personal data of data subjects, and potential fines for noncompliance of up to €20 million, or 4% of consolidated annual worldwide gross revenues, whichever is greater. The EU also confers a private right of action on data subjects and consumer associations to lodge complaints with supervisory authorities, seek judicial remedies, and obtain compensation for damages resulting from violations of the EU GDPR.

Under the EU GDPR, we may be required to put in place additional mechanisms to ensure compliance. These include, among other things: (i) accountability and transparency requirements, and enhanced requirements for obtaining valid consent; (ii) obligations to consider data protection as any new products or services are developed, and to limit the amount of personal data processed; (iii) obligations to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard personal data and to report certain personal data breaches to the supervisory authority without undue delay (and no later than 72 hours where feasible); and (iv) obligations to provide individuals with various data protection rights (e.g., the right to erasure of personal data).

European data protection laws including the EU GDPR also prohibit the transfer of personal data from Europe to the United States and other countries ("third countries") that are not recognized as having "adequate" data protection laws unless the parties to the transfer have implemented specific safeguards to protect the transferred personal data. One of the primary safeguards allowing U.S. companies to import personal data from Europe has historically been certification to the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield frameworks administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce. However, the Court of Justice of the European Union, in the “Schrems II” ruling in 2020, invalidated the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield framework for purposes of international transfers. The Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner also opined that the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield is inadequate for transfers of personal data from Switzerland to the U.S. Recently, a new Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework was announced as a successor to the invalidated Privacy Shield. Once approved and implemented, the agreement would facilitate the transatlantic flow of personal data and provide an alternative data transfer mechanism (in addition to EU Standard Contractual Clauses and Binding Corporate Rules) for companies transferring personal data from the EU to the U.S. However, the agreement in principle will depend on the

67

implementation of several commitments from the United States, and so, it is unclear when the new framework will be available.

The Schrems II decision also imposed further restrictions on the use of one of the primary alternatives to the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, namely, the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses ("SCCs"), including a requirement for companies to carry out a transfer privacy impact assessment which, among other things, assesses laws governing access to personal data in the recipient country and considers whether supplementary measures that provide privacy protections additional to those provided under SCCs will need to be implemented to ensure an essentially equivalent level of data protection to that afforded in the EU. At present, there are few, if any, viable alternatives to the SCCs.

The European Commission recently adopted new EU SCCs which impose onerous obligations on the contracting parties. These new EU SCCs must be used in all new contracts going forward (where there are restricted transfers of personal data), with existing contracts entered into before September 27, 2021 requiring updating by December 27, 2021. As such, any transfers by us or our vendors of personal data from Europe may not comply with European data protection law; may increase our exposure to the EU GDPR’s heightened sanctions for violations of its cross-border data transfer restrictions; and may reduce demand from companies subject to European data protection laws. Moreover, where we rely on SCCs, we must in certain cases now evaluate and implement supplementary measures that provide privacy protections additional to those provided under SCCs. This evaluation will, in particular, include an assessment as to whether the types of personal data transferred pursuant to SCCs may be subject to government surveillance in the data importer’s country, and an assessment as to whether the data importer can meet its contractual obligations under the SCCs. Additionally, other countries outside of Europe have enacted, or are considering enacting similar cross-border data transfer restrictions and laws requiring local data residency, which could increase the cost and complexity of delivering our products and operating our business.

Compliance with the EU GDPR involves rigorous and time-intensive processes that may increase our cost of doing business or require us to change our business practices. There may also be a risk that the measures will not be implemented correctly or that individuals within the business will not be fully compliant with the required procedures.

Further, following the UK's exit from the EU ("Brexit"), the EU GDPR’s data protection obligations continue to apply to the United Kingdom in substantially unvaried form under the so called “UK GDPR” (i.e., the EU GDPR as it continues to form part of law in the UK by virtue of section 3 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended (including by the various Data Protection, Privacy and Electronic Communications (EU Exit) Regulations)). The UK GDPR exists alongside the UK Data Protection Act 2018 that implements certain derogations in the UK GDPR into UK law. Under the UK GDPR, companies not established in the UK but who process personal information in relation to the offering of goods or services to individuals in the UK, or to monitor their behavior, will be subject to the UK GDPR – the requirements of which are (at this time) largely aligned with those under the EU GDPR, and as such may lead to similar compliance and operational costs with potential fines of up to £17.5 million or 4% of global turnover. As a result we are potentially exposed to two parallel data protection regimes, each of which authorizes fines and the potential for divergent enforcement actions. It should also be noted that the UK Government has published its own form of EU SCCs known as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA) together with an International Data Transfer Addendum (UK Addendum) to the new EU SCCs. The UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) is also expected to shortly publish its version of the transfer impact assessment and international guidance on international transfers.

Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with applicable laws and regulations or any of our other legal obligations relating to privacy, data protection, or information security may result in governmental investigations or enforcement actions, litigation, claims, or public statements against us Any of the foregoing could also result in significant liability or cause our customers to lose trust in us, any of which could have an adverse effect on our reputation, operations, financial performance and business. Furthermore, the costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, the laws, regulations, and policies that are applicable to the businesses of our customers may limit the adoption and use of, and reduce the overall demand for, our products and services.

In the United States, Data Protection Laws include rules and regulations promulgated under the authority of the Federal Trade Commission, the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, the CCPA and other similar state comprehensive privacy laws, and other state and federal laws relating to privacy

68

and data security. The CCPA requires companies that process information on California residents to make new disclosures to consumers about their data collection, use and sharing practices, allows consumers to opt out of the sale of personal information with third parties, and provides a private right of action and statutory damages for data breaches. The CCPA may increase our compliance costs and potential liability. In addition, the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, or CPRA, is scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2023, and would, among other things, give California residents the ability to limit the use of their sensitive information, provide for penalties for CPRA violations concerning California residents under the age of 16, and establish a new California Privacy Protection Agency to implement and enforce the law. The enactment of the CCPA is prompting a wave of similar legislative developments in other states in the United States, including laws already passed in Virginia, Colorado and Utah that will go into effect in 2023, which could create the potential for a patchwork of overlapping but different state laws and more stringent United States privacy requirements, which in turn could increase our potential liability and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Compliance with the increasing number of newly enacted privacy and data security laws and regulations may be challenging, costly and time-intensive, and we may be required to put in place additional mechanisms to comply with applicable legal requirements. Such laws and pending legislative initiatives, to the extent that they become privacy and data security laws or regulations in various states, may have potentially conflicting requirements that would make compliance challenging. Some countries also are considering or have passed legislation requiring local storage and Processing of data, or similar requirements, which could increase the cost and complexity of providing our products and services and other aspects of our business.

We expect that there will continue to be new proposed laws, regulations and industry standards concerning privacy, data protection and information security in the United States and other jurisdictions, and we cannot yet determine the impact such future laws, regulations and standards may have on our business. With laws and regulations in the EU, the United Kingdom, the United States, and other global jurisdictions imposing new and potentially costly or disruptive obligations, and with substantial uncertainty over the interpretation and application of these and other laws and regulations, there is a risk that the requirements of these laws and regulations, or of contractual or other obligations relating to privacy, data protection, or information security, could be interpreted or applied in a manner that is, or is alleged to be, inconsistent with our management and Processing practices, our policies or procedures, or our products and services. For instance, given the increased focus on the use of data for advertising, the anticipation and expectation of future laws, regulations, standards and other obligations could impact us and our existing and potential business partners and delay certain business partnerships or deals until there is greater certainty. In addition, as we expand our data analytics and other data-related product offerings there may be increased scrutiny on our use of data, and we may be subject to new and unexpected regulations, including proposals for regulation of artificial intelligence. Future laws, regulations, standards and other obligations could, for example, impair our ability to collect or use information that we utilize to provide targeted digital promotions and media to consumers, advertisers and retailers, thereby impairing our ability to maintain and grow our total customers and increase revenues. Future restrictions on the collection, use, sharing or disclosure of our users’ data or additional requirements for express or implied consent of users for the use and disclosure of such information could require us to modify our solutions, possibly in a material manner, and could limit our ability to develop or outright prohibit new solutions and features.

We may face challenges in addressing the requirements of any such new laws, regulations, other legal obligations or industry standards, or any changed interpretation of existing laws, regulations or other standards and making necessary changes to our policies and practices, and such changes may require us to incur additional costs and restrict our business operations. Although we endeavor to comply with our Privacy Policies and other privacy, data protection or information security-related obligations, we may at times fail to do so or may be perceived to have failed to do so. Moreover, despite our efforts, we may not be successful in achieving compliance if our employees or vendors do not comply with our Privacy Policies and other privacy, data protection or information security obligations. Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with our Privacy Policies and our privacy, data protection, or information security-related obligations to customers or other third parties, or our failure to comply with any of our other legal obligations relating to privacy, data protection, information security, marketing or consumer protection could subject us to litigation, regulatory investigations, fines or other liabilities, as well as negative publicity or public statements against us by consumer advocacy groups or others and could result in significant liability or cause a loss of trust in us, which could have an adverse effect on our reputation and business. Furthermore, the costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, the laws, regulations, and policies that are applicable to the businesses of our customers may limit the adoption and use of, and reduce the overall demand for, our products and services. Moreover, if future laws, regulations, other legal obligations or industry standards, or any changed interpretations of the foregoing limit users’, advertisers’ or retailers’ ability to use and share personally

69

identifiable information or our ability to store, process and share personally identifiable information or other data, demand for our solutions could decrease, our costs could increase, our revenue growth could slow, and our business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed.

Additionally, if third parties we work with, such as vendors or developers, violate Data Protection Laws, Privacy Policies and Data Protection Obligations, such violations may also put our customers’ content at risk and could in turn have an adverse effect on our business. Any significant change to Data Protection Laws, Data Protection Obligations or industry practices regarding the collection, use, retention, security or disclosure of our customers’ content, or regarding the manner in which the express or implied consent of customers for the collection, use, retention or disclosure of such content is obtained, could increase our costs and require us to modify our products and services, possibly in a material manner, which we may be unable to complete and which may limit our ability to store and Process customer data or develop new applications and features.

We may be required to record a significant charge to earnings if our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets become impaired.

We are required under U.S. GAAP to review our amortizable intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill is required to be tested for impairment at least annually. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or any other significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable. The events and circumstances we consider include the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, and competition. In the future we may be required to record a significant charge to earnings in our consolidated financial statements during the period in which any impairment of our goodwill or amortizable intangible assets is determined. The determination and recording of a significant impairment charge could adversely impact our results of operations, as for example occurred during the third quarter of 2021 in connection with the circumstances surrounding the termination of our partnership with Albertsons, and also could harm our business.

Changes to financial accounting standards or the SEC’s rules and regulations may affect our financial statements and cause us to change our business practices.

We prepare our financial statements to conform to U.S. GAAP. These accounting principles are subject to interpretation by the FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), the SEC and various bodies formed to interpret and create appropriate accounting policies. A change in those policies can have a significant effect on our reported results and may affect our reporting of transactions completed before a change is announced. Changes to those rules or the questioning of current practices may adversely affect our reported financial results or the way we conduct our business. For example, in August 2020, the FASB issued a new standard ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which generally requires companies to report our convertible debt instrument as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for the embedded conversion features. Additionally, this ASU amends the diluted earnings per share calculation for convertible instruments by requiring the use of the if-converted method. The treasury stock method is no longer available. This new standard became effective for us beginning January 1, 2022.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting, our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be impaired.

We are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, Sarbanes-Oxley ("SOX"), and the rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE. We expect that the requirements of these rules and regulations will continue to increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs; make some activities more difficult, time consuming and costly; and place significant strain on our personnel, systems and resources.

SOX requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. Our ability to comply with internal control reporting requirements depends on the effectiveness of our financial reporting and data systems and controls across our company. We are continuing to develop and refine our disclosure controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we will file with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed in reports under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive and financial officers.

70

We are also continuing to improve our internal control over financial reporting. In order to maintain and improve the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, we have expended, and anticipate that we will continue to expend, significant resources, including accounting-related costs and significant management oversight. Any failure to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting also could adversely affect the results of periodic management evaluations and annual independent registered public accounting firm attestation reports regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting that we will be required to include in our periodic reports we will file with the SEC under Section 404 of SOX. In the event that we are not able to demonstrate compliance with Section 404 of SOX, that our internal control over financial reporting is perceived as inadequate, or that we are unable to produce timely or accurate financial statements, investors may lose confidence in our operating results and our stock price could decline.

Our current controls and any new controls that we develop may become inadequate because of changes in conditions in our business. Further, weaknesses in our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting may be discovered in the future. Any failure to develop or maintain effective controls, or any difficulties encountered in their implementation or improvement, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, and could result in a restatement of our financial statements for prior periods. Any failure to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting also could adversely affect the results of management evaluations and independent registered public accounting firm audits of our internal control over financial reporting that we will eventually be required to include in our periodic reports that will be filed with the SEC. Ineffective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial and other information, which would likely have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock. In addition, if we are unable to continue to meet these requirements, our common stock may not be able to remain listed on the NYSE.

Any failure to maintain effective disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting could have a material and adverse effect on our business and operating results, and cause a decline in the price of our common stock.

State and foreign laws regulating money transmission could impact our rebates solutions.

Many states and certain foreign jurisdictions impose license and registration obligations on those companies engaged in the business of money transmission, with varying definitions of what constitutes money transmission. If our rebates solutions were to subject us to any applicable state or foreign laws, it could subject us to increased compliance costs and delay our ability to offer this product in certain jurisdictions pending receipt of any necessary licenses or registrations. If we need to make product and operational changes in light of these laws, the growth and adoption of these products may be adversely impacted, and our revenues may negatively affected.

Our ability to use our net operating losses to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations.

In general, under Section 382 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, and similar state law provisions, a corporation that undergoes an “ownership change” is subject to limitations on its ability to utilize its pre-change net operating losses, or NOLs, to offset post-change taxable income. If we have experienced an ownership change, our existing NOLs may be subject to limitations under Section 382 of the Code. Future changes in our stock ownership, some of which are outside of our control despite our having adopted a "tax benefits preservation plan" (as hereinafter defined) in November of 2021, also could result in an ownership change under Section 382 of the Code. Additionally, our NOLs arising in tax years beginning prior to January 1, 2018 are subject to expiration and may expire prior to being utilized. Under the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"), as modified by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"), NOLs arising in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, are not subject to expiration and may be carried forward indefinitely, but the deductibility of such NOLs in tax years beginning after December 31, 2020, is limited to 80% of taxable income. It is uncertain if and to what extent various states will conform to the Tax Act or the CARES Act.

On November 11, 2021, we adopted a tax benefits preservation plan to protect the value of tax assets associated with NOL carryforwards under Section 382 of the Code against a potential change in ownership as defined in Section 382. However, the tax benefits preservation plan does not guarantee against such a change in ownership.

There is also a risk that our NOLs could otherwise be unavailable to offset future income tax liabilities due to changes in the law, including regulatory changes, such as suspensions on the use of NOLs or other unforeseen

71

reasons. In addition, at the state level, there may be periods during which the use of net operating loss carryforwards is suspended or otherwise limited, which could accelerate or permanently increase state taxes owed. We do not expect this to have a material impact on our financial statements because we currently maintain a full valuation allowance on our U.S. deferred tax assets. For these reasons, we may not be able to utilize all of our NOLs, even if we attain profitability.

Changes in the U.S. and foreign tax law or challenges by taxing authorities of the jurisdictions in which we operate could increase our worldwide effective tax rate and have a negative effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Changes in the U.S. taxation of international activities may increase our worldwide effective tax rate and harm our financial condition and results of operations. The taxing authorities of the jurisdictions in which we operate may challenge our methodologies for valuing developed technology or intercompany arrangements, including our transfer pricing, or determine that the manner in which we operate our business does not achieve the intended tax consequences, which could increase our worldwide effective tax rate and harm our financial position and results of operations. Significant judgment will be required in evaluating our tax positions and determining our provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there will be many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. As we expand our business to operate in numerous taxing jurisdictions, the application of tax laws may be subject to diverging and sometimes conflicting interpretations by tax authorities of these jurisdictions. It is not uncommon for taxing authorities in different countries to have conflicting views. In addition, tax laws are dynamic and subject to change as new laws are passed and new interpretations of the law are issued or applied. New income, sales, use or other tax laws, statutes, rules, regulations or ordinances could be enacted at any time, which could adversely affect our business operations and financial performance.

Further, existing tax laws, statutes, rules, regulations or ordinances could be interpreted, changed, modified or applied adversely to us. For example, the Tax Act enacted many significant changes to the U.S. tax laws. Future guidance from the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities with respect to the Tax Act may affect us, and certain aspects of the Tax Act could be repealed or modified in future legislation. For example, the CARES Act, modified certain provisions of the Tax Act. In addition, it is uncertain if and to what extent various states will conform to the Tax Act, the CARES Act, or any newly enacted federal tax legislation. Changes in corporate tax rates, the realization of net deferred tax assets relating to our operations, the taxation of foreign earnings, and the deductibility of expenses under the Tax Act or future reform legislation could have a material impact on the value of our deferred tax assets, could result in significant one-time charges, and could increase our future U.S. income tax expense.

Risks Related to Our Platforms, Technology and Intellectual Property

If our security measures or information we collect and maintain are compromised or publicly exposed, advertisers, retailers and consumers may curtail or stop using our platforms and we could be subject to claims, penalties and fines.

We process data about consumers, including personally identifiable information or personal data, as well as other confidential or proprietary information necessary to operate our business, for legal and marketing purposes, and for other business-related purposes.

While we and our third-party service providers have implemented security measures designed to protect against security breaches, like all businesses that use computer systems and the Internet, our security measures, as well as those of companies we may acquire and our third-party service providers and partners, could fail or may be insufficient, resulting in the unauthorized disclosure, modification, misuse, unavailability, destruction, or loss of our or our customers’ data or other sensitive information. Any security breach of our operational systems, physical facilities, or the systems of our third-party partners, or the perception that one has occurred, could result in litigation, indemnity obligations, regulatory enforcement actions, investigations, fines, penalties, mitigation and remediation costs, disputes, reputational harm, diversion of management’s attention, and other liabilities and damage to our business. Even though we do not control the security measures of third parties, we may be responsible for any breach of such measures or suffer reputational harm even where we do not have recourse to the third party that caused the breach. In addition, any failure by our retail partners or other third-party partners to comply with applicable law or regulations could result in proceedings against us by governmental entities or others.

Cyberattacks, denial-of-service attacks, ransomware attacks, business email compromises, computer malware, viruses, social engineering (including phishing) and other malicious internet-based activity are prevalent in

72

our industry, and our customers and partners’ industries, and continue to increase. In addition, we may experience software or other code vulnerabilities, attacks, unavailable systems, unauthorized access or disclosure due to employee or other theft or misuse, denial-of-service attacks, sophisticated attacks by nation-state and nation-state supported actors, and advanced persistent threat intrusions. We and our third party service providers regularly defend against and respond to a variety of cybersecurity attacks and incidents. Despite our efforts to ensure the security, privacy, integrity, confidentiality, availability, and authenticity of the information technology (IT) networks and systems, processing and information, we may not be able to anticipate or to implement effective preventive and remedial measures against, or adequately respond to mitigate the impact of, all data security and privacy threats and attacks. We cannot guarantee that the recovery systems, security protocols, network protection mechanisms and other security measures that we have integrated into our systems, networks and physical facilities, which are designed to protect against, detect and minimize security breaches, will be adequate to prevent or detect service interruption, system failure data loss or theft, or other material adverse consequences. No security solution, strategy, or measures can address all possible security threats or block all methods of penetrating a network or otherwise perpetrating a security incident. The risk of unauthorized circumvention of our security measures, or those of our third-party providers, clients and partners, has been heightened by advances in computer and software capabilities and the increasing sophistication of hackers who employ complex techniques, including without limitation, the theft or misuse of personal and financial information, counterfeiting, “phishing” attacks (including those directed toward SMS/texting services) or social engineering incidents, ransomware, extortion, publicly announcing security breaches, account takeover attacks, denial or degradation of service attacks, malware, fraudulent payment and identity theft. The techniques used to sabotage, disrupt or to obtain unauthorized access to our applications, systems, networks, or physical facilities in which data is stored or through which data is transmitted change frequently, and we may be unable to implement adequate preventative measures or stop security breaches while they are occurring. The recovery systems, security protocols, network protection mechanisms and other security measures that we have integrated into our applications, systems, networks and physical facilities, which are designed to protect against, detect and minimize security breaches, may not be adequate to prevent or detect service interruption, system failure or data loss. Additionally, to provide protection against the occurrence of a cybersecurity event, we rely on the IT professionals within our organization to monitor, diagnose and remediate threats arising within our network. To the extent we experience attrition in this area and are required to shift workloads, or acquire and train supplementary IT talent, we could face increased risks of experiencing a materially harmful cybersecurity event.

In addition, our applications, systems, networks, and physical facilities could be breached, or personal information could be otherwise compromised, due to employee error or malfeasance if, for example, third parties attempt to fraudulently induce our employees, customers or partners to disclose information or user names and/or passwords, or otherwise compromise the security of our networks, systems and/or physical facilities. Third parties may also exploit vulnerabilities in, or obtain unauthorized access to, platforms, applications, systems, networks and/or physical facilities utilized by our vendors. We have been, and may in the future become, the target of cyber-attacks by third parties seeking unauthorized access to our or our customers or partners’ data or to disrupt our operations or ability to provide our services. While we have been successful in preventing such unauthorized access and disruption in the past, we may not continue to be successful against these or other attacks in the future.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a high percentage of our employees are temporarily working remotely, which may pose additional data security risks. These risks will continue as we intend to adopt a hybrid work policy upon our offices re-opening for all employees. If we, or our service providers and partners, experience compromises to security that result in performance or availability problems, or experience the complete shutdown of one or more of our platforms, digital properties and mobile applications, or suffer the misuse, loss or unauthorized access to or disclosure of confidential information, personally identifiable information or other personal or proprietary data, advertisers, retailers, and consumers may lose trust and confidence in us and decrease their use of our platforms or stop using our platforms entirely. Such compromises to personal or sensitive information or proprietary data could lead to litigation or other adversarial actions by business partners such as retailers or consumers.

The costs to respond to a security breach and/or to mitigate any security vulnerabilities that may be identified could be significant, our efforts to address these problems may not be successful, and these problems could result in unexpected interruptions, delays, cessation of service, negative publicity, and other harm to our business and our competitive position. We could be required to fundamentally change our business activities and practices in response to a security breach or related regulatory actions or litigation, which could have an adverse effect on our business.

73

We have contractual and legal obligations to notify relevant stakeholders of security breaches. Most jurisdictions have enacted laws requiring companies to notify individuals, regulatory authorities, and others of security breaches involving certain types of data. In addition, our agreements with certain customers and partners may require us to notify them in the event of a security breach involving customer or partner data on our systems or those of subcontractors processing customer or partner data on our behalf. Such mandatory disclosures are costly, could lead to negative publicity, may cause our customers to lose confidence in the effectiveness of our security measures, and require us to expend significant capital and other resources to respond to or alleviate problems caused by the actual or perceived security breach may cause us to breach customer contracts. Depending on the facts and circumstances of such an incident, these damages, penalties and costs could be significant and may not be covered by insurance or could exceed our applicable insurance coverage limits. Such an event also could harm our reputation and result in litigation against us. Any of these results could materially adversely affect our financial performance. Our agreements with certain customers may require us to use industry-standard, reasonable, or other specified measures to safeguard sensitive personal information or confidential information, and any actual or perceived breach of such measures may increase the likelihood and frequency of customer audits under our agreements, which is likely to increase the costs of doing business. An actual or perceived security breach could lead to claims by our customers, or other relevant stakeholders that we have failed to comply with such legal or contractual obligations. As a result, we could be subject to legal action or our customers could end their relationships with us. There can be no assurance that any limitations of liability in our contracts, which we have in certain agreements, would be enforceable or adequate or would otherwise protect us from liabilities or damages.

Litigation resulting from security breaches may adversely affect our business. Unauthorized access to our applications, systems, networks, or physical facilities could result in litigation with our customers or other relevant stakeholders. These proceedings could force us to spend money in defense or settlement, divert management’s time and attention, increase our costs of doing business, or adversely affect our reputation. We could be required to fundamentally change our business activities and practices, or to modify our business and operational capabilities in response to such litigation, which could have an adverse effect on our business. If a security breach were to occur, and the confidentiality, integrity or availability of our data or the data of our partners or our customers were to be disrupted, we could incur significant liability, or our applications, systems or networks may be perceived as less desirable, which could negatively affect our business and damage our reputation.

If we fail to detect or remediate a security breach in a timely manner, or a breach otherwise affects a large amount of data of one or more of our customers or partners, or if we suffer a cyberattack that impacts our ability to operate our applications, systems, or networks, we may suffer material damage to our reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, we may not have adequate insurance coverage for security incidents or breaches, including fines, judgments, settlements, penalties, costs, attorney fees and other impacts that arise out of incidents or breaches. Depending on the facts and circumstances of such an incident, the damages, penalties and costs could be significant and may not be covered by insurance, or could exceed our applicable insurance coverage limits. If the impacts of a security incident or breach, or the successful assertion of one or more large claims against us that exceeds our available insurance coverage, or results in changes to our insurance policies (including premium increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements), it could have an adverse effect on our business. In addition, we cannot be sure that our existing insurance coverage and coverage for errors and omissions will continue to be available on acceptable terms or that our insurers will not deny coverage as to all or part of any future claim or loss. Our risks are likely to increase as we continue to expand our applications, systems, or networks, grow our customer base, and Process, store, and transmit increasingly large amounts of proprietary and sensitive data.

Remediation of any potential cybersecurity breach may involve significant time, resources, and expenses, which may result in potential regulatory inquiries, litigation or other investigations, and could affect our financial and operational condition.

Our ability to generate revenue and properly capture the occurrence of certain revenue-generating events depends on the collection, reliability, and use of significant amounts of data from various sources, which may be restricted by consumer choice, restrictions imposed by retailers, publishers and browsers or other software developers, changes in technology, and new developments in laws, regulations and industry requirements or standards.

Our ability to generate revenue, and properly capture the occurrence of certain revenue-generating events, depends on the collection, reliability, and use of significant amounts of data from various sources, including data

74

that we receive from retailers and other parties. Additionally, our ability to deliver our solutions depends on our ability to successfully leverage data, including data that we collect from consumers, data we receive from retailers and other parties, and data from our own operating history. Using loyalty card numbers both online and in-store, device identifiers (including Google AdID and Apple IDFA), cookies, and other tracking technologies, we, our retail partners and other data providers collect information about the interactions of consumers with our retail partners’ digital and in-store, with our owned and operated properties, and with certain other publisher sites and mobile applications, as well as other data such as location. We may enhance this data with other data, such as demographic information that we obtain from data providers.

As an example, for certain media campaigns, we receive tracking information from the systems of retailers, their service providers, and other third parties. If those parties fail to provide us information, fail to provide information in a timely fashion, or provide incorrect information, or if for other reasons we are unable to properly track such information, our results of operations and our ability to timely determine our revenue share payment obligation to retailers could be adversely impacted. Additionally, our ability to successfully leverage such data depends on our continued ability to access and use data from various sources, which can be restricted by a number of factors, including consumer choice, the success in obtaining consumer consent; restrictions imposed by our retail and other data partners or other third parties, publishers and web browser developers or other software developers; changes in technology, including changes in web browser technology; and new developments in, or new interpretations of laws, regulations and industry standards. For example, Apple in 2021 began implementing several changes to iOS that will require consumers to opt-in to sharing data with publisher sites and app, which may adversely impact our business. Consumer resistance to the collection and sharing of the data used to deliver targeted advertising, increased visibility of consent or “do not track” mechanism as a result of industry regulatory and/or legal developments, the adoption by consumers of browsers settings or “ad-blocking” software, and the development and deployment of new technologies could materially impact our ability to collect data or reduce our ability to deliver relevant promotions or media, which could materially impair the results of our operations. See the risk factor above titled “Our business is subject to complex and evolving laws, regulations and industry standards, and unfavorable interpretations of, or changes in, or failure by us to comply with these laws, regulations and industry standards could substantially harm our business and results of operations” for additional information.

In addition, unfavorable publicity and negative public perception about our industry, or data collection and use, could adversely affect our business and operating results. With the growth of online advertising and eCommerce, there is increasing awareness and concern among the general public, privacy advocates, mainstream media, governmental bodies and others regarding marketing, advertising, and privacy matters, particularly as they relate to individual privacy interests. Any unfavorable publicity or negative public perception about our use of data, or about data-focused industries, could affect our business and results of operations, and may lead digital publishers like Facebook to change their business practices or trigger additional regulatory scrutiny or lawmaking that could affect us. Negative public attention could cause advertisers or our retail partners to discontinue using our targeted advertising solutions and limit our ability to measure campaigns delivered through our platforms. This public scrutiny may also lead to general distrust of data and marketing companies, consumer reluctance to share and permit use of personal data, and increased consumer opt-out rates, any of which circumstances could negatively influence, change or reduce our current and prospective customers’ demand for our products and services and adversely affect our business and operating results.

If the use of mobile device identifiers, third-party cookies or other tracking technology is rejected by consumers, restricted by third parties outside of our control, or otherwise subject to unfavorable regulation, the benefits of our offerings and solutions could diminish, our data and media acquisition costs could increase and we could lose customers and revenue.

We and our third-party partners use, or might opt to use, a number of technologies to collect information used to deliver our solutions. For instance, mobile device identifiers such as Apple IDFA and Google AdID help us and our third-party partners identify, target and measure relevant promotions and media to consumers. Advertising shown on mobile applications can also be affected by blocking or restricting use of mobile device identifiers. Data regarding interactions between users and devices are tracked mostly through stable, pseudonymous advertising identifiers that are built into the device operating system with privacy controls that allow users to express a preference with respect to data collection for advertising, including to disable the identifier. These identifiers and privacy controls are defined by the developers of the platforms through which the applications are accessed and could be changed by the platforms in ways that could impair our ability to target, deliver, or measure the effectiveness of our solutions, any of which may negatively impact our business. In addition, mobile operating system and browser providers have implemented product changes and may in the future implement changes to limit the ability of websites and

75

application developers to collect and use these mobile device identifiers and other data to target and measure advertising. For example, in April 2021 Apple shifted to require user opt-in before permitting access to Apple’s unique identifier, or IDFA. This shift from enabling user opt-out to an opt-in requirement is likely to have a substantial impact on the mobile advertising ecosystem, increase data and media acquisition costs, and could harm our growth.

Our platforms use location data to localize and deliver geographically relevant content to shoppers. For instance, our DOOH solution tracks a mobile device user’s geographical proximity to the public DOOH display so that localized relevant marketing campaigns will be displayed to the user when they are nearby. Our ability to obtain and use location data could also become limited by consumer choice and subject to privacy-related restrictions. If such restrictions and regulations negatively impact our ability to use location data in our solutions, such as our ability to track identifiable mobile device users within the proximity of DOOH display screens, there could be less customer demand for our platforms and solutions and our business and revenue would be negatively impacted.

We also use small text files (referred to as "cookies"), placed through an Internet browser on a consumer's machine which corresponds to a data set that we keep on our servers, to gather important data to help deliver our solutions. Certain of our cookies, including those that we predominantly use in delivering our solutions through Internet browsers, are known as "third-party" cookies because they are delivered by third parties rather than by us. Our cookies collect information, such as when a consumer views an advertisement, clicks on an advertisement, or visits one of our advertisers' websites. In some countries, including countries in the European Economic Area, and certain states within the United States, such as California, this information may be considered personal information under applicable data protection laws. When a consumer interacts with our solutions on a mobile device, we may also obtain location-based information about the user's device through our cookies or other tracking technologies. We use these technologies to achieve our customers' campaign goals, to ensure that the same consumer does not unintentionally see the same media too frequently, to report aggregate information to our customers regarding the performance of their digital promotions and marketing campaigns, and to detect and prevent fraudulent activity throughout our network. We also use data from cookies to help us decide whether and how much to bid on an opportunity to place an advertisement in a certain Internet location and at a given time in front of a particular consumer. A lack of data associated with or obtained from third-party cookies may detract from our ability to make decisions about which inventory to purchase for a customer's campaign and thereby may adversely affect the effectiveness of our solution and harm our business.

Cookies may be deleted or blocked by consumers. The most commonly used Internet browsers (including Chrome, Firefox, and Safari) allow their users to prevent cookies from being accepted by their browsers. Consumers can also delete cookies from their computers. Some consumers also download "ad blocking" software that prevents cookies from being stored on a user's computer. If more consumers adopt these settings or delete their cookies more frequently than they currently do, our business could be negatively affected. In addition, certain web browsers may block third-party cookies by default. For example, Apple previously released an update to its Safari browser that limits the use of cookies, and other browsers may do so in the future. Unless such default settings in browsers are altered by consumers to permit the placement of third-party cookies, we would be able to set fewer of our cookies in users’ browsers, which reduces our ability to achieve our customers' campaign goals, measure performance of these campaigns, and detect fraudulent activity, any of which could adversely affect our business. In addition, companies such as Google have publicly disclosed their intention to move away from cookies to another form of persistent unique identifier, or ID, to identify individual consumers or Internet-connected devices in the bidding process on advertising exchanges. Companies not using shared IDs across the entire ecosystem could have a negative impact on our ability to find the same user across different web properties, and thereby reduce the effectiveness of our solutions.

In addition, the EU Directive 2009/136/EC, commonly referred to as the "Cookie Directive," directs EU Member States to ensure that collecting information on a consumer's computer, such as through a cookie, is allowed only if the consumer has appropriately given his or her prior freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous consent. Similarly, this Directive, which also contains specific rules for the sending of marketing communications, limits the use of marketing texts messages and e-mails. Additionally, the "e-Privacy Regulation", which will replace the Cookie Directive with requirements that could be stricter in certain respects, will apply directly to activities within the EU without the need to be transposed in each Member State’s Law, and could impose stricter requirements regarding the use of cookies, marketing e-mails and text messages. Additional penalties for noncompliance have been proposed in connection with the e-Privacy Regulation, although at this time it is unclear whether the e-Privacy Regulation will be approved as it is currently drafted or when its requirements will be effective. We may experience challenges in obtaining appropriate consent to our use of cookies from consumers or

76

to send marketing communications to consumers within the EU, which may affect our ability to run promotions and our operating results and business in European markets, and we may not be able to develop or implement additional tools that compensate for the lack of data associated with cookies. Moreover, even if we are able to do so, such additional tools may be subject to further regulation, may be time consuming to develop or costly to obtain, and may be less effective than our current use of cookies.

We allow our clients and partners to utilize application programming interfaces ("APIs"), with our platforms, which could result in outages or security breaches and negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The use of APIs by our customers, as well as by retailer and other network partners, has significantly increased in recent years. Our APIs allow customers, as well as retailer and other network partners, to integrate their own business system with our platforms. The increased use of APIs increases security and operational risks to our systems, including risks relating to management of system access controls such as timely retirement of network user IDs as well as the risks of intrusion attacks, data theft, or denial of service attacks. Furthermore, while APIs allow greater ease and power in accessing our platforms, they also increase the risk of overusing our systems, potentially causing outages. While we have taken measures intended to decrease security and outage risks associated with the use of APIs, we cannot guarantee that such measures will be successful. Our failure to prevent outages or security breaches resulting from API use could result in government enforcement actions against us, claims for damages by consumers and other affected individuals, costs associated with investigation and remediation damage to our reputation and loss of goodwill, any of which could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business relies in part on electronic messaging, including emails and SMS text messages, and any technical, legal or other restrictions on the sending of electronic messages or an inability to timely deliver such communications could harm our business.

Our business is in part dependent upon electronic messaging. We provide emails, mobile alerts and other messages to consumers informing them of the digital coupons on our websites, and we believe these communications help generate a significant portion of our revenues. We also use electronic messaging as part of the consumer sign-up and verification process. Because electronic messaging services are important to our business, if we are unable to successfully deliver electronic messages to consumers, if there are legal restrictions on delivering these messages to consumers, or if consumers do not or cannot open our messages, our revenues and profitability could be adversely affected. Changes in how webmail applications or other email management tools organize and prioritize email may result in our emails being delivered or routed to a less prominent location in a consumer’s inbox, or may be viewed as “spam” by consumers, and thereby may reduce the likelihood of that consumer opening our emails. Actions taken by third parties that block, impose restrictions on, or charge for the delivery of, electronic messages could also harm our business. From time to time, Internet service providers or other third parties may block bulk email transmissions or otherwise experience technical difficulties that result in our inability to successfully deliver emails or other messages to consumers.

Changes in laws or regulations, or changes in interpretations of existing laws or regulations, including the Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA") in the United States and laws regarding commercial electronic messaging in other jurisdictions, that would limit our ability to send such communications or impose additional requirements upon us in connection with sending such communications could also adversely impact our business. For example, the Federal Communications Commission in recent years amended certain of its regulations under the TCPA in a manner that could increase our exposure to liability for certain types of telephonic communication with customers, including but not limited to text messages to mobile phones. Under the TCPA, plaintiffs may seek actual monetary loss or statutory damages per violation, whichever is greater, and courts may treble the damage award for willful or knowing violations. Given the enormous number of communications we send to consumers, the actual or perceived improper sending of communications, or a determination that there have been violations of the TCPA or other communications-based statutes, could subject us to potential risks including liabilities or claims relating to consumer protection laws, and could expose us to significant damage awards that could, individually or in the aggregate, materially harm our business. Moreover, even if we prevail, such litigation against us could impose substantial costs and divert our management’s attention and resources.

We also rely on social networking messaging services to send communications. Changes to these social networking services’ terms of use or terms of service that limit promotional communications; restrictions that would limit our ability or our customers’ ability to send communications through their services, disruptions or downtime

77

experienced by these social networking services; or reductions in the use of or engagement with social networking services by customers and potential customers could also harm our business.

We rely on a third-party service for the delivery of daily emails and other forms of electronic communication, and delay or errors in the delivery of such emails or other messaging we send may occur and be beyond our control, which could damage our reputation or harm our business, financial condition and operating results. If we were to be unable to use our current electronic messaging services, alternate services are available; however, we believe our sales could be impacted for some period as we transition to a new provider, and the new provider may be unable to provide equivalent or satisfactory electronic messaging service. Any disruption or restriction on the distribution of our electronic messages, termination or disruption of our relationship with our messaging service providers, including our third-party service that delivers our daily emails, or any increase in our costs associated with our email and other messaging activities could harm our business.

Our business depends on our ability to maintain and scale the network infrastructure necessary to operate our platforms, including our websites and mobile applications, and any significant disruption in service could result in a loss of advertisers, retailers and consumers.

We deliver digital promotions and media via our platforms, including over our websites and mobile applications, as well as through those of our advertisers and retailers and our publishers and other third parties. Our reputation and ability to acquire, retain and serve advertisers and retailers, as well as consumers who use digital promotions or view media on our platforms are dependent upon the reliable performance of our platforms. As the number of our advertiser customers, retailers and consumers; the number of digital promotions, digital media and information shared through our platforms; and the number of network endpoints (for example, DOOH display screens) continue to grow, we will need an increasing amount of network capacity and computing power. Our technology infrastructure and platforms are hosted across two data centers in co-location facilities in California and Virginia. We also operate our applications and services on industry-leading cloud platforms. We have spent and expect to continue to spend substantial amounts in our data centers, cloud platforms, and equipment and related network infrastructure to handle the traffic on our platforms. The operation of these systems is expensive and complex, and could result in operational failures and/or slow remediation response times in the event of a network incident. In the event that the number of transactions or the amount of traffic on our platforms grows more quickly than anticipated, we may be required to incur significant additional costs. In addition, as we scale, we must continually invest in our information technology, and also continue to invest in information security, infrastructure and automation as we strive to reduce complexities and siloed elements of our platforms. Deployment of new software or processes, whether or not relating to the transition from legacy to new IT systems, may adversely affect the performance of our services and harm the customer experience. If we fail to support our platforms or provide a strong customer experience, our ability to retain and attract customers may be negatively affected. Interruptions in these systems or service disruptions, whether due to system failures, computer viruses, malware, ransomware, denial of service attacks, attempts to degrade or disrupt services, or physical or electronic break-ins, could affect the security or availability of our websites and platforms, and prevent advertisers, retailers or consumers from accessing our platforms. A substantial portion of our network infrastructure is hosted by third-party providers. Any disruption in these services or any failure of these providers to handle existing or increased traffic could significantly harm our business. Any financial or other difficulties these providers face may adversely affect our business, and furthermore we exercise little control over these providers, which increases our vulnerability to problems with the services they provide. If we do not maintain or expand our network infrastructure successfully or if we experience operational failures, we could lose current and potential advertisers, retailers and consumers, which could harm our operating results and financial condition.

We currently have not experienced disruptions to our network or operations as a result of COVID-19, but there are no guarantees there will not be disruptions in the future. However, due to the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic both inside and outside the U.S., and especially in India where a significant portion of our operations, engineering and IT personnel are situated, we could experience disruptions to our operations, network or product development activities, which could impact our provision of services to customers as well as our internal operations and support functions.

We are dependent on technology systems and electronic communications networks that are supplied and managed by third parties, which could result in our inability to prevent or respond to disruptions in our services.

78

Our ability to provide services to consumers depends on our ability to communicate with advertisers, retailers and consumers through the public Internet and electronic networks that are owned and operated by third parties. Our solutions and services also depend on the ability of our users to access the public Internet. In addition, in order to provide services promptly, our computer equipment and network servers must be functional 24 hours per day, which requires access to telecommunications facilities managed by third parties and the availability of electricity, neither of which we control. Severe disruptions, outages, defects, or other security performance and quality problems with one or more of these networks, including as a result of utility or third-party system interruptions, or any material change in our contractual and other business relationships with third-party providers, could impair our ability to process information, which in turn could impede our ability to provide digital promotions and media to consumers; harm our reputation; increase expenses, including significant, unplanned capital investments and/or contractual obligations; and result in a loss of consumers or advertisers and retailers, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating results.

For example, currently as a result of work and travel restrictions related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, our employees are working remotely and dependent upon their respective internet service providers to be able to access the internet, our systems and systems of our service providers. In other words, our business workflows now rely on availability of residential broadband bandwidth as well as connectivity which is currently under considerable strain. If the residential broadband and internet access break down under strain, our business and operations would be negatively affected.

We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property rights.

We regard our trademarks, service marks, copyrights, patents, trade dress, trade secrets, proprietary technology, and similar intellectual property as critical to our success.

We strive to protect our intellectual property rights in a number of jurisdictions, a process that is expensive and may not be successful or which we may not pursue in every location. We strive to protect our intellectual property rights by relying on federal, state and common law rights, contractual restrictions, and rights provided under foreign laws. Applicable laws are subject to change at any time and could further restrict our ability to protect our intellectual property rights.

We also may not be able to acquire or maintain appropriate domain names in all countries in which we do business. Furthermore, regulations governing domain names may not protect our trademarks and similar proprietary rights. We may be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring domain names that are similar to, infringe upon, or diminish the value of our trademarks and other proprietary rights.

We typically enter into confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with our employees and contractors, and confidentiality agreements with parties with whom we conduct business in order to limit access to, and disclosure and use of, our proprietary information. Also, from time to time, we make our intellectual property rights available to others under license agreements. However, these contractual arrangements and the other steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not prevent the misappropriation or disclosure of our proprietary information, infringement of our intellectual property rights or deter independent development of similar technologies by others, and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of such misappropriation or infringement. Third parties that license our proprietary rights also may take actions that diminish the value of our proprietary rights or reputation.

Obtaining and maintaining effective intellectual property rights is expensive, including the costs of defending our rights. Even where we have such rights, they may be later found to be unenforceable or have a limited scope of enforceability. We may not be able to discover or determine the extent of any unauthorized use of our proprietary rights. Litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights, protect our trade secrets, or determine the validity and scope of proprietary rights claimed by others. Any litigation of this nature, regardless of outcome or merit, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management and technical resources, any of which could adversely affect our business and operating results. If we fail to maintain, protect and enhance our intellectual property rights, our business and operating results may be negatively affected.

We may be accused of infringing intellectual property rights of third parties.

Other parties may claim that we infringe their proprietary rights. We are, have been subject to, and expect to continue to be subject to, claims and legal proceedings regarding alleged infringement by us of the intellectual property rights of third parties. Such claims, whether or not meritorious, may result in the expenditure of significant

79

financial and managerial resources, injunctions against us, or the payment of damages, including to satisfy indemnification obligations. We may need to obtain licenses from third parties who allege that we have infringed their rights, but such licenses may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. In addition, we may not be able to obtain or utilize on terms that are favorable to us, or at all, licenses or other rights with respect to intellectual property we do not own. These risks have been amplified by the increase in third parties whose sole or primary business is to assert such claims.

We may be unable to continue to use the domain names that we use in our business, or prevent third parties from acquiring and using domain names that infringe on, are similar to, or otherwise decrease the value of our brand or our trademarks or service marks.

We may lose significant brand equity in our “Coupons.com” domain name, our “Quotient.com” domain name, our Shopmium.com domain name, and other valuable domain names. If we lose the ability to use a domain name, whether due to trademark claims, failure to renew an applicable registration, or any other cause, we may be forced to market our products under new domain names, which could cause us substantial harm, or to incur significant expense in order to purchase rights to the domain names in question. In addition, our competitors and others could attempt to capitalize on our brand recognition by using domain names similar to ours. We also may not be able to acquire or maintain appropriate domain names or trademarks in all countries in which we do business. Domain names similar to ours have been registered in the United States and elsewhere. We may be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring and using domain names that infringe on, are similar to, or otherwise decrease the value of our brand or our trademarks or service marks. Protecting and enforcing our rights in our domain names may require litigation, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and thereby harm our business.

Some of our solutions contain open source software, which may pose particular risks to our proprietary software and solutions.

We use open source software in our solutions and plan to use open source software in the future. From time to time, we may face claims from third parties claiming ownership of, or demanding release of, the open source software and/or derivative works that we developed using such software (which could include our proprietary source code), or that are otherwise seeking to enforce the terms of the applicable open source license. These claims could result in litigation and could require us to purchase a costly license or cease offering the implicated solutions unless and until we can re-engineer them to avoid infringement. This re-engineering process could require significant additional research and development resources. In addition to risks related to license requirements, use of certain open source software can lead to greater risks than use of third-party commercial software, as open source licensors generally do not provide warranties or controls on the origin of software. Any of these risks could be difficult to eliminate or manage and, if not addressed, could have a negative effect on our business and operating results.

Risks Related to Ownership of our Common Stock

The market price of our common stock has been, and is likely to continue to be, subject to wide fluctuations and could subject us to litigation.

The price of our common stock may change in response to variations in our operating results and also may change in response to other factors, including factors specific to technology companies, many of which are beyond our control. As a result, our stock price may experience significant volatility. Among other factors that could affect our stock price are:

•the financial projections that we or analysts may choose to provide to the public, any changes in these projections or our failure for any reason to meet these projections;

•actual or anticipated changes or fluctuations in our results of operations;

•whether our results of operations meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors;

•addition or loss of significant customers or commercial business partners;

•price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market from time to time;

•fluctuations in the trading volume of our shares or the size of our public float;

•success of competitive products or services;

80

•the public’s response to press releases or other public announcements by us or others, including our filings with the SEC;

•disputes or other developments related to proprietary rights, including patents, litigation matters or our ability to obtain intellectual property protection for our technologies;

•announcements relating to litigation;

•speculation about our business in the press or the investment community;

•reports, guidance and ratings issued by securities or industry analysts;

•future sales of our common stock by our significant stockholders, officers and directors;

•changes in our capital structure, such as future issuances of debt or equity securities;

•our entry into new markets;

•regulatory developments in the United States or foreign countries;

•strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or restructurings;

•business model or solution delivery changes that result in differences in accounting treatment, including whether revenue is recognized on a net or gross basis;

•actions instituted by activist stockholders or others;

•any significant changes in our management or our board of directors; and

•changes in accounting principles.

If any of the foregoing occurs, it could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline. In addition, the stock market in general has experienced substantial price and volume volatility that is often seemingly unrelated to the operating results of any particular companies. Moreover, if the market for technology stocks or the stock market in general experiences uneven investor confidence, the market price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, operating results or financial condition. The market price for our stock might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies within, or outside, our industry, even if these events do not directly affect us. Some companies that have experienced volatility in the trading price of their stock have been subject of securities litigation. If we are the subject of such litigation, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

Our tax benefits preservation plan may reduce the volume of trading in our stock because it limits the ability of persons or entities from acquiring a significant percentage of our outstanding stock.

Our tax benefits preservation plan is designed to preserve the value of certain tax assets associated with NOL carryforwards under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The inability of some stockholders to acquire a significant position in our common stock could substantially reduce the market liquidity of our common stock, making it more difficult for a stockholder to dispose of, or obtain accurate quotations for the price of, our common stock.

Our business could be negatively affected as a result of actions of stockholders.

We value constructive input from investors and regularly engage in dialogue with our stockholders regarding strategy and performance. Our board of directors and management team are committed to acting in the best interests of all of our stockholders. There is no assurance that the actions taken by our board of directors and management in seeking to maintain constructive engagement with certain stockholders will be successful.

On April 13, 2022, Engaged Capital Flagship Master Fund, LP, together with certain affiliates (collectively “Engaged”), filed a preliminary proxy statement seeking to solicit proxies in favor of the election of two director candidates to our board of directors at our 2022 annual meeting of stockholders. Engaged has also made public statements critical of our board of directors, management and operations. Responding to these actions by Engaged and potential actions by other activist stockholders is costly and time-consuming, disruptive to our operations and diverts the attention of management, our board of directors and our employees. The contested election with respect to the company's directors requires us to incur substantial legal, public relations and other advisory fees and proxy solicitation expenses. Further, we may choose to initiate, or may become subject to, litigation as a result of

81

proposals by activist stockholders or proxy contests or matters relating thereto, which would serve as a further distraction to our board of directors and management and could require us to incur significant additional costs.

Additionally, perceived uncertainties as to our future direction as a result of stockholder activism or changes to the composition of our board of directors may lead to the perception of a change in the direction of our business or other instability, which may be exploited by our competitors and/or other activist stockholders and cause concern to our current or potential customers, employees, investors, partners and other constituencies, which could result in lost sales and the loss of business opportunities and make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified personnel and business partners. If customers choose to delay, defer or reduce business with us or do business with our competitors instead of us, then our business, financial condition and operating results would be adversely affected. In addition, our share price could experience periods of increased volatility as a result of stockholder activism.

Substantial future sales of shares by our stockholders could negatively affect our stock price.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could depress the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We have approximately 95,068,899 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2022, assuming no exercise of our outstanding options or vesting of our outstanding RSUs.

Our equity incentive plans allow us to issue, among other things, stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units, and we have filed a registration statement under the Securities Act to cover the issuance of shares upon the exercise or vesting of awards granted under those plans.

The concentration of our common stock ownership with our executive officers, directors and owners of 5% or more of our outstanding common stock will limit our ability to influence corporate matters.

Our executive officers, directors and owners of 5% or more of our outstanding common stock together beneficially own approximately 46% of our outstanding common stock, based on the number of shares outstanding as of March 31, 2022. These stockholders therefore have significant influence over management and affairs, and over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and significant corporate transactions, such as a merger or other sale of our company or its assets, for the foreseeable future. This concentrated control limits stockholders' ability to influence corporate matters and, as a result, we may take actions that our stockholders do not view as beneficial. This ownership could affect the value of a stockholder's shares of common stock.

If securities analysts do not publish research or if securities analysts or other third parties publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about us, the price of our common stock could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will rely in part on the research and reports that securities analysts and other third parties choose to publish about us. We do not control these analysts or other third parties. The price of our common stock could decline if one or more securities analysts downgrade our common stock or if one or more securities analysts or other third parties publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about us or cease publishing reports about us.

We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

We intend to retain all of our earnings for the foreseeable future to finance the operation and expansion of our business, and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock. As a result, a stockholder can expect to receive a return on the stockholder's investment in our common stock only if the market price of the stock increases.

Provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law could discourage a takeover that stockholders may consider favorable.

Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and by-laws may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control or changes in our management. Amongst other things, these provisions:

•authorize the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock that could be issued by our Board of Directors to defend against a takeover attempt;

•establish a classified Board of Directors, as a result of which the successors to the directors whose terms have expired will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following their election;

82

•require that directors only be removed from office for cause and only upon a majority stockholder vote;

•provide that vacancies on the Board of Directors, including newly created directorships, may be filled only by a majority vote of directors then in office rather than by stockholders;

•prevent stockholders from calling special meetings; and

•prohibit stockholder action by written consent, requiring all actions to be taken at a meeting of the stockholders.

In addition, we are governed by the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which generally prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in a broad range of business combinations with any “interested” stockholder for a period of three years following the date on which the stockholder becomes an “interested” stockholder.

Risks Related to Debt Financing Transactions

We are leveraged financially, which could adversely affect our ability to adjust our business to respond to competitive pressures and to obtain sufficient funds to satisfy our future growth, business needs and development plans.

In November 2017, we issued $200 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes (the “notes”).  

Additionally, in November 2021, we entered into an asset-based credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) which provides for available borrowings up to $100 million (the "ABL Facility"), with the actual amount dependent on a “borrowing base” number consisting of the sum of various categories of eligible accounts receivable (the lesser of such number and $100 million, the “Line Cap”). The ABL Facility matures and all outstanding amounts, if any, become due and payable in November 2026 (“fixed ABL maturity date”), except that such maturity date shall be accelerated to be the date that is 91 days prior to the notes’ maturity date (currently December 1, 2022) unless (i) the notes shall have been repaid in full or converted to equity as of such 91-days-prior date, or unless (ii) the notes are refinanced and/or extended to a maturity date that is 91 days after the fixed ABL maturity date, or unless (iii) during such 91-days-prior period we have sufficient cash to repay the notes in full, we meet a certain liquidity test after giving pro forma effect to the repayment of the notes, and there is no event of default under the ABL Credit Agreement.

The ABL Credit Agreement contains customary conditions as to borrowings, events of default and covenants that restrict the our ability to sell assets; make changes to the nature of our business; engage in merger or acquisition activity; incur, assume or permit to exist additional indebtedness and guarantees; create or permit to exist liens; pay dividends; issue equity instruments; make distributions or redeem or purchase capital stock or make other investments; and make payments in respect of certain debt. The ABL Credit Agreement also requires that if the Company’s Excess Availability (defined as the Line Cap less borrowed amounts or issued letters of credit) is less that the greater of (i) the Line Cap and (ii) $10 million, the Company will maintain a compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.00 to 1.00. In addition, the ABL Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which may require that the Company pay an additional 2.0% interest on the outstanding loans under the ABL Credit Agreement.

Our leveraged capital structure could have negative consequences, including, but not limited to, the following:

•our ability to maintain compliance with the financial covenants is dependent upon our future operating performance and future financial condition, both of which are subject to various risks and uncertainties;

•we may be more vulnerable to economic downturns, less able to withstand competitive pressures, and less flexible in responding to changing business and economic conditions;

•our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, general corporate or other purposes may be limited;

•a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations in the future may be required for the payment of the principal amount of our existing indebtedness when it becomes due; and

•we may elect to make cash payments upon any conversion of the convertible notes, which would reduce our cash on hand

83

Our ability to meet our payment obligations under our notes and the ABL Facility, as well as maintain compliance with financial covenants under the ABL Credit Agreement, depends on our ability to generate significant cash flow in the future. This, to some extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, and regulatory factors as well as other factors that are beyond our control. There can be no assurance that our business will generate cash flow from operations, or that additional capital will be available to us, in an amount sufficient to enable us to meet our debt payment obligations and to fund other liquidity needs. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow to service our debt obligations, we may need to refinance or restructure our debt, sell assets, reduce or delay capital investments, or seek to raise additional capital. If we were unable to implement one or more of these alternatives, we may be unable to meet our debt payment obligations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

The conditional conversion feature of the notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

In the event the conditional conversion feature of the notes is triggered, holders of the notes will be entitled to convert their notes at any time during specified periods at their option. Upon conversion, we will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. If one or more holders elect to convert their notes, (unless we elect to satisfy our conversion obligation by delivering solely shares of our common stock (other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share)), we intend to settle a portion or all of our conversion obligation in cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, even if holders of notes do not elect to convert their notes, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the notes as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital.

The accounting method for convertible debt securities that may be settled in cash, such as the notes, could have a material effect on our reported financial results.

Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06 as of the first quarter of 2022, the Company no longer uses the treasury stock method for calculating diluted earnings per share. Instead, the Company uses the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share. Under the treasury stock method, the transaction was accounted for as if the number of shares of common stock that would be necessary to settle such excess, if we elected to settle such excess in shares, are issued. Under the if-converted method, the transaction is accounted for as if the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion occurs at the beginning of the reporting period. The consequence to the Company's financial results of using the if-converted method at present is not problematic because the Company is in a net loss position in the Company's consolidated statement of operations and the convertible senior notes were determined to be anti-dilutive. However, if the Company becomes in a net profit position, then our diluted earnings per share could be adversely affected.

Conversion of our notes will dilute the ownership interest of existing stockholders and may depress the price of our common stock.

The conversion of some or all of our notes, if such conversion occurs, will dilute the ownership interests of then-existing stockholders to the extent we deliver shares upon conversion of any of the notes.  Any sales in the public market of the common stock issuable upon such conversion could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock.  In addition, the existence of the notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the notes could be used to satisfy short positions, or anticipated conversion of the notes into shares of our common stock could depress the price of our common stock.

General Risks

Our business is subject to interruptions, delays or failures resulting from earthquakes, other natural catastrophic events or terrorism.

Our headquarters is currently located in Salt Lake City, Utah. Our current technology infrastructure is hosted across two data centers in co-location facilities in California and Virginia. In addition, we use industry-leading cloud providers to host our applications and services. Our services, operations and the data centers from which we provide our services are vulnerable to damage or interruption from earthquakes, fires, floods, public health crises such as pandemics and epidemics, power losses, telecommunications failures, terrorist attacks, acts of war, human errors, break-ins and similar events (such as the COVID-19 pandemic). A significant natural disaster, such as an

84

earthquake, fire or flood, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations and our insurance coverage may be insufficient to compensate us for losses that may occur. In addition, global climate change could result in certain types of natural disasters occurring more frequently or with more intense effects. Acts of terrorism could cause disruptions to the Internet, our business or the economy as a whole. We may not have sufficient protection or recovery plans in certain circumstances, such as natural disasters affecting areas where data centers upon which we rely are located, and our business interruption insurance may be insufficient to compensate us for losses that may occur. Such disruptions could negatively impact our ability to run our websites, which could harm our business.

Our ability to raise capital in the future may be limited, and our failure to raise capital when needed could prevent us from growing.

We may in the future be required to raise additional capital through public or private financing or other arrangements. Such financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could harm our business. Additional equity or equity-linked financing, such as our convertible senior notes, may dilute the interests of our stockholders, and additional debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and could reduce our profitability. If we cannot raise funds on acceptable terms, we may not be able to grow our business. In addition, while the ultimate potential impact and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and our business in particular may be difficult to assess or predict, the pandemic has resulted in, and could result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, reducing our ability to access capital, which could negatively affect our liquidity in the future.

Global economic conditions could materially adversely affect our revenue and results of operations.

Our business has been and may continue to be affected by a number of factors that are beyond our control, such as general geopolitical, economic and business conditions; conditions in the financial markets; and changes in the overall demand for, or supply of, CPG products. A severe and/or prolonged economic downturn could adversely affect our customers' financial condition and the levels of marketing spend of our customers. While we have seen advertisers or CPGs continue to spend, and in certain cases increase spend, on promotions during economic downturns, there is no guarantee they will continue to do so in a future economic downturn, including one that may be presently taking shape due to the persistence of the COVID-19 pandemic and inflationary pressures. Weakness in, and uncertainty about, global economic conditions may cause advertisers and retailers to postpone marketing in response to tighter credit, negative financial news and/or declines in income or asset values. If inflation were to increase, advertisers and retailers could face higher manufacturing, supply chain or related input costs associated with the goods they produce and offer for sale, which could negatively impact their margins and otherwise make them less apt to utilize our solutions, which in turn would negatively impact our revenue. As also noted in the risk factor “The effects of health epidemics, including the COVID-19 pandemic, have had, and may continue to have, an adverse impact on our business, operations and the markets and communities in which we and our partners operate” above, the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased economic uncertainty. Some advertisers continue to experience supply chain pressures and have not returned to pre-pandemic levels of promotional marketing spend. The economic slowdown that was severe in the initial months following the pandemic's breakout in 2020 has moderated, but due to the persistent presence of COVID-19 hotspots both in the U.S. and in non-U.S. countries, risks of a global recession remain. Adverse changes in economic conditions, including as a result of the pandemic, can significantly harm demand for our marketing solutions (or change the mix of solutions demanded) and make it more challenging to forecast our operating results and make business decisions.

In addition, the economic problems affecting the financial markets and the uncertainty in global economic conditions resulted in a number of adverse effects including a low level of liquidity in many financial markets, extreme volatility in credit, equity, currency and fixed income markets; instability in the stock market; and high unemployment. There could be a number of other follow-on effects from these economic developments on our business, including customer insolvencies, decreased demand for our marketing solutions; decreased customer ability to pay their accounts, and increased collections risk and defaults.

Exhibit 10.2

QUOTIENT TECHNOLOGY INC.

AMENDED AND RESTATED CHANGE OF CONTROL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

This Amended and Restated Change of Control Severance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between Matthew Krepsik (“Executive”) and Quotient Technology Inc. (the “Company”), effective as of May 1, 2022 (the “Effective Date”). This Agreement supersedes and replaces the Change of Control Severance Agreement between Executive and Company effective as of April 26, 2021 (the “2021 Agreement”).

RECITALS

1.The Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders (i) to assure that the Company will have the continued dedication and objectivity of Executive, and (ii) to provide Executive with an incentive to continue Executive’s employment prior to a Change of Control and to motivate Executive to maximize the value of the Company upon a Change of Control for the benefit of its stockholders.

2.The Committee believes that it is imperative to provide Executive with certain severance benefits upon Executive’s termination of employment under certain circumstances. These benefits will provide Executive with enhanced financial security and incentive and encouragement to remain with the Company.

3.Certain capitalized terms used in the Agreement are defined in Section 6 below.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Term of Agreement. The initial term of the Agreement (the “Initial Term”) shall commence on the Effective Date and terminate on May 1, 2025 and shall automatically renew for successive terms of three (3) years thereafter (the Initial Term and each successive term a, “Term”) and any obligations of the Company hereunder will lapse upon the completion of the Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, (a) if a Change of Control occurs when there are fewer than twelve (12) months remaining during the Term, the term of this Agreement will extend automatically through the date that is twelve (12) months following the effective date of the Change of Control, or (b) outside of a Change of Control Period, either party may terminate the Agreement, for any reason, by giving written notice to the other party at least thirty (30) days prior to May 1, 2025 or any subsequent termination date, or (c) if an initial occurrence of an act or omission by the Company constituting the grounds for “Good Reason” in accordance with Section 6(h) hereof has occurred (the “Initial Grounds”), and the expiration date of the Cure Period (as such term is used in Section 6(h)) with respect to such Initial Grounds could occur following the expiration of the Term, the term of this Agreement will extend automatically through the date that is thirty (30) days following the expiration of the Cure Period, but such extension of the term will only apply with respect to the Initial Grounds. If Executive becomes entitled to benefits under Section 3 during the term of this Agreement, the Agreement will not terminate until all of the obligations of the parties hereto with respect to this Agreement have been satisfied.

2.At-Will Employment. The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and will continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law. As an at-will employee, either the Company or Executive may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without Cause.

3.Severance Benefits.

(a)Termination without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason Outside of the Change of Control Period. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment with the Company without Cause (and not by reason of Executive’s death or Disability) or if Executive resigns from such employment for Good Reason, and, in each case, such termination occurs outside of the Change of Control Period, then subject to Section 4, Executive will receive the following:

(i)Accrued Compensation. The Company will pay Executive all accrued but unpaid vacation (if any), expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements when legally required.

(ii)Severance Payment. Executive will receive a lump-sum payment (less applicable withholding taxes) equal to one hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to Executive’s termination date (or if the termination is due to a resignation for Good Reason based on a material reduction in base salary, then Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to such reduction).

(iii)COBRA Payment. The Company will provide to Executive a taxable lump-sum payment in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that Executive would be required to pay to continue Executive’s group health coverage in effect on the date of Executive’s termination of employment (which amount will be based on the premium for the first month of COBRA coverage), multiplied by twelve (12), which payment will be made regardless of whether Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage (the “COBRA Payment”). For the avoidance of doubt, the COBRA Payment may be used for any purpose, including, but not limited to continuation coverage under COBRA, and will be subject to all applicable tax withholdings.

(b)Termination without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason During the Change of Control Period. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment with the Company without Cause (and not by reason of Executive’s death or Disability) or if Executive resigns from such employment for Good Reason, and, in each case, such termination occurs during the Change of Control Period, then subject to Section 4, Executive will receive the following:

(i)Accrued Compensation. The Company will pay Executive all accrued but unpaid vacation (if any), expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements when legally required.

(ii)Severance Payment. Executive will receive a lump-sum payment (less applicable withholding taxes) equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of Executive’s annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to Executive’s termination date (or if the termination is due to a resignation for Good Reason based on a material reduction in base salary, then Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to such reduction) or, if greater, at the level in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control.

(iii)Bonus Payment. Executive will receive a lump-sum payment (less applicable withholding taxes) equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of Executive’s annual bonus for the year of termination at target level as in effect immediately prior to Executive’s termination date (and for purposes of

    -2-

clarification, if Executive’s annual bonus target is expressed as a percentage of Executive’s annual base salary and Executive’s termination is due to a resignation for Good Reason based on a material reduction in base salary, then the payment to be made pursuant to this section will be calculated based on Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to such reduction), or, if greater, at the level in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control.

(iv)COBRA Payment. The Company will provide to Executive a taxable lump-sum payment in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that Executive would be required to pay to continue Executive’s group health coverage in effect on the date of Executive’s termination of employment (which amount will be based on the premium for the first month of COBRA coverage), multiplied by eighteen (18), which payment will be made regardless of whether Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage (the “Change of Control COBRA Payment”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Change of Control COBRA Payment may be used for any purpose, including, but not limited to continuation coverage under COBRA, and will be subject to all applicable tax withholdings.

(v)Accelerated Vesting of Equity Awards. One hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s then-outstanding and unvested Equity Awards will become vested in full and in the case of stock options and stock appreciation rights, will become exercisable (for avoidance of doubt, no more than one hundred percent (100%) of the shares subject to the outstanding portion of the Equity Awards may vest and become exercisable under this provision). In the case of Equity Awards with performance-based vesting, all performance goals and other vesting criteria will be treated as set forth in Executive’s Equity Award agreement governing such Equity Award. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company terminates Executive’s employment with the Company without Cause (and not by reason of Executive’s death or Disability) or if Executive resigns from such employment for Good Reason prior to a Change of Control, then any unvested portion of Executive’s outstanding Equity Awards will remain outstanding for three (3) months or the occurrence of a Change of Control (whichever is earlier) so that any acceleration benefits can be provided if a Change of Control occurs within three (3) months following such termination (provided that in no event will the Equity Awards remain outstanding beyond the Equity Award’s maximum term or expiration date). In such case, if no Change of Control occurs within three (3) months following Executive’s termination, any unvested portion of Executive’s Equity Awards automatically will be forfeited without having vested.

(c)Voluntary Resignation; Termination for Cause. If Executive’s employment with the Company terminates (i) voluntarily by Executive (other than for Good Reason) or (ii) for Cause by the Company, then Executive will not be entitled to receive severance or other benefits except for those (if any) as may then be established under the Company’s then existing severance and benefits plans and practices or pursuant to other written agreements with the Company (if any).

(d)Disability; Death. If the Company terminates Executive’s employment as a result of Executive’s Disability, or Executive’s employment terminates due to Executive’s death, then Executive will not be entitled to receive severance or other benefits except for those (if any) as may then be established under the Company’s then existing written severance and benefits plans and practices or pursuant to other written agreements with the Company (if any).

(e)Exclusive Remedy. In the event of a termination of Executive employment as set forth in Section 3(a) or Section 3(b) of this Agreement, the provisions of Section 3 are intended to be and are exclusive and in lieu of any other rights or remedies to which Executive or the Company otherwise may be entitled, whether at law, tort or contract, in equity, or under this Agreement (other than the payment of accrued but unpaid wages, as required by law, and any unreimbursed reimbursable expenses). Executive will be entitled to no benefits, compensation or other payments or rights upon a termination of employment other than those benefits expressly set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the payments and benefits under Section 3(b) of this Agreement are in place of and not in addition to, any

    -3-

payments to which Executive may have become entitled under Section 3(a) of this Agreement. To the extent Executive received or began receiving payment under Section 3(a) of this Agreement, and, due to a Change of Control, becomes eligible for payments under Section 3(b) of this Agreement, the payments previously made under Section 3(a) of this Agreement will be deemed to have been made under Section 3(b) of this Agreement.

4.Conditions to Receipt of Severance; No Duty to Mitigate

(a)Release of Claims Agreement. The receipt of any severance payments or benefits (other than the accrued benefits set forth in Section 3(a)(i) or Section 3(b)(i)) pursuant to this Agreement is subject to Executive signing and not revoking the Company’s then-standard separation agreement and release of claims (which may include an agreement not to disparage the Company, restrictive covenants (which may include non-solicit or non-competition provisions as permitted by law), and other standard terms and conditions) (the “Release” and such requirement, the “Release Requirement”), which must become effective and irrevocable no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s termination of employment (the “Release Deadline”). Any severance payments or benefits under this Agreement will be paid on the first regular payroll pay day following the Release Deadline, or, if later, (A) with respect to the benefits provided in Section 3(b)(ii), 3(b)(iii), 3(b)(iv) or 3(b)(v) and in each case, to the extent not already provided under Section 3(a), if the Executive’s termination date occurs within the Change of Control Period but prior to the closing of the Change of Control, on the date of the closing of the Change of Control or (B) such time as required by Section 4(c)(iii), except that the acceleration of vesting of Equity Awards not subject to Section 409A will become effective on the tenth (10th) day following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable (the “Release Effective Date”) and the acceleration of vesting of Equity Awards subject to Section 409A will become effective on the Release Deadline, or, in either event, if later, with respect to the benefits provided in Section 3(b)(v), if Executive’s termination date occurs within the Change of Control Period but prior to the closing of the Change of Control, on the date of the closing of the Change of Control. If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under this Agreement. In no event will severance payments or benefits be paid or provided until the Release actually becomes effective and irrevocable.

(b)Confidential Information and Invention Assignment Agreements. Executive’s receipt of any payments or benefits under Section 3 (other than the accrued benefits set forth in Section 3(a)(i) or Section 3(b)(i)) will be subject to Executive continuing to comply with the terms of the At-Will Employment, Confidential Information, Invention Assignment and Arbitration Agreement between the Company and Executive, as such agreement may be amended from time to time.

(c)Section 409A.

(i)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no severance pay or benefits to be paid or provided to Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits, are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, and the final regulations and any guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”) (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Similarly, no severance payable to Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that otherwise would be exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) will be payable until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. In no event will Executive have discretion to determine the taxable year of payment of any Deferred Payments.

(ii)It is intended that none of the severance payments under this Agreement will constitute Deferred Payments but rather will be exempt from Section 409A as a payment that would fall within

    -4-

the “short-term deferral period” as described in Section 4(c)(iv) below or resulting from an involuntary separation from service as described in Section 4(c)(v) below.

(iii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of Executive’s separation from service (other than due to death), then the Deferred Payments, if any, that are payable within the first six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service, will become payable on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Executive’s separation from service. All subsequent Deferred Payments, if any, will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Executive dies following Executive’s separation from service, but before the six (6) month anniversary of the separation from service, then any payments delayed in accordance with this paragraph will be payable in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death and all other Deferred Payments will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Each payment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment under Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.

(iv)Any amount paid under this Agreement that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (i) above.

(v)Any amount paid under this Agreement that qualifies as a payment made as a result of an involuntary separation from service pursuant to Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations that does not exceed the Section 409A Limit (as defined below) will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (i) above.

(vi)The foregoing provisions are intended to comply with or be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to be exempt or so comply. The Company and Executive agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Agreement and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition before actual payment to Executive under Section 409A. In no event will the Company reimburse Executive for any taxes that may be imposed on Executive as a result of Section 409A.

5.Limitation on Payments. In the event that the severance and other benefits provided for in this Agreement or otherwise payable to Executive (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this Section 5, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then Executive’s benefits under Section 3 will be either:

(a)delivered in full, or

(b)delivered as to such lesser extent which would result in no portion of such benefits being subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code,

whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999, results in the receipt by Executive on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. If a reduction in severance and other benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that benefits are delivered to a lesser extent, reduction will occur in the following order: (i) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest

    -5-

date following the occurrence of the event triggering the excise tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (ii) cancellation of Equity Awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of Code Section 280G (if two or more Equity Awards are granted on the same date, each award will be reduced on a pro-rata basis); (iii) reduction of the accelerated vesting of Equity Awards in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (i.e., the vesting of the most recently granted Equity Awards will be cancelled first and if more than one Equity Award was made to Executive on the same date of grant, all such awards will have their acceleration of vesting reduced pro rata) unless Executive elects in writing a different order for cancellation; and (iv) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (i.e., the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the excise tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will the Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of payment reductions.

Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section 5 will be made in writing by the Company’s independent public accountants immediately prior to a Change of Control or such other person or entity to which the parties mutually agree (the “Firm”), whose determination will be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 5, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and Executive will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company will bear all costs the Firm may incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 5.

6.Definition of Terms. The following terms referred to in this Agreement will have the following meanings:

(a)Cause. “Cause” means the occurrence of any of the following: (i) Executive’s conviction of, or plea of “no contest” to, a felony or any crime involving fraud or embezzlement; (ii) Executive’s intentional misconduct; (iii) Executive’s material failure to perform his or her employment duties; (iv) Executive’s unauthorized use or disclosure of any proprietary information or trade secrets of the Company, or any of its subsidiaries, or any other party to whom Executive owes an obligation of nondisclosure as a result of his or her relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (v) an act of material fraud or dishonesty against the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (vi) Executive’s material violation of any policy of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or material breach of any written agreement with the Company or any of its subsidiaries; or (vii) Executive’s failure to cooperate with the Company in any investigation or formal proceeding.

The foregoing definition does not in any way limit the Company’s ability to terminate Executive’s employment relationship at any time as provided in Section 2 above, and the term “Company” will be interpreted to include any subsidiary, parent, affiliate or successor thereto, if applicable.

(b)Change of Control. “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events:

(i)any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under said Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding voting securities; or

(ii)the consummation of the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; or

    -6-

(iv)a change in the composition of the Board, as a result of which less than a majority of the directors are Incumbent Directors. “Incumbent Directors” means directors who either (A) are directors of the Company as of the effective date of this Policy, or (B) are elected, or nominated for election, to the Board with the affirmative votes of at least a majority of the directors of the Company at the time of such election or nomination (but will not include an individual whose election or nomination is in connection with an actual or threatened proxy contest relating to the election of directors to the Company).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be a Change of Control unless the transaction qualifies as a change in control event within the meaning of Section 409A. Further and for purposes of clarity, a transaction will not constitute a Change of Control if its primary purposes is to: (x) change the state of the Company’s incorporation, or (y) create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s securities immediately before such transaction.

(c)Change of Control Period. “Change of Control Period” means the period beginning six (6) months prior to, and ending twelve (12) months following, the first Change of Control to occur after the Effective Date.

(f)Disability. “Disability” means the total and permanent disability as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code unless the Company maintains a long-term disability plan at the time Executive’s termination, in which case, the determination of disability under such plan also will be considered “Disability” for purposes of this Agreement.

(g)Equity Awards. “Equity Awards” means Executive’s outstanding stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance stock units and any other Company equity compensation awards.

(h)Good Reason. “Good Reason” means Executive’s termination of his or her employment in accordance with the next sentence after the occurrence of one or more of the following events without Executive’s express written consent: (i) a material reduction of Executive’s duties, authorities, or responsibilities relative to Executive’s duties, authorities, or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to such reduction including where such material reduction results solely by virtue of the Company being acquired and made part of a larger entity (as, for example, when the Chief Financial Officer of the Company remains as such following a Change of Control but is not made the Chief Financial Officer of the acquiring corporation); (ii) a material reduction by the Company in Executive’s rate of annual base salary; provided, however, that, a reduction of annual base salary that also applies to substantially all other similarly situated employees of the Company will not constitute “Good Reason”; (iii) a material change in the geographic location of Executive’s primary work facility or location; provided, that a relocation of less than thirty-five (35) miles from Executive’s then present location will not be considered a material change in geographic location; or (iv) the failure of the

Company to obtain from any successor or transferee of the Company an express written and unconditional assumption of the Company’s obligations to Executive under this Agreement. In order for Executive’s termination of his or her employment to be for Good Reason, Executive must not terminate employment with the Company without first providing the Company with written notice of the acts or omissions constituting the grounds for “Good Reason” within ninety (90) days of the initial existence of the grounds for “Good Reason” and a cure period of thirty (30) days following the date of written notice (the “Cure Period”), such grounds must not have been cured during such time, and Executive must terminate his or her employment within thirty (30) days following the Cure Period.

(i)Section 409A Limit. “Section 409A Limit” will mean two (2) times the lesser of: (i) Executive’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay paid to Executive during Executive’s taxable year preceding the Executive’s taxable year of Executive’s termination of employment as determined under, and with such adjustments as are set forth in, Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii)(A)(1) and any Internal Revenue Service guidance issued with respect thereto; or (ii) the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the Code for the year in which Executive’s employment is terminated.

7.Successors.

(a)The Company’s Successors. Any successor to the Company (whether direct or indirect and whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the Company’s business and/or assets will assume the obligations under this Agreement and agree expressly to perform the obligations under this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to perform such obligations in the absence of a succession. For all purposes under this Agreement, the term “Company” will include any successor to the Company’s business and/or assets which executes and delivers the assumption agreement described in this Section 7(a) or which becomes bound by the terms of this Agreement by operation of law.

(b)Executive’s Successors. The terms of this Agreement and all rights of Executive hereunder will inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees.

8.Notice.

(a)General. Notices and all other communications contemplated by this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when sent electronically or personally delivered when mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid or when delivered by a private courier service such as UPS, DHL or Federal Express that has tracking capability. In the case of Executive, notices will be sent to the e-mail address or addressed to Executive at the home address, in either case which Executive most recently communicated to the Company in writing. In the case of the Company, electronic notices will be sent to the e-mail address of the General Counsel and mailed notices will be addressed to its corporate headquarters, and all notices will be directed to the attention of its General Counsel.

(b)Notice of Termination. Any termination by the Company for Cause or by Executive for Good Reason will be communicated by a notice of termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 8(a) of this Agreement. Such notice will indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, will set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination under the provision so indicated, and will specify the termination date (which will be not more than ninety (90) days after the giving of such notice).

    -8-

9.Resignation. Upon the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, Executive will be deemed to have resigned from all officer and/or director positions held at the Company and its affiliates voluntarily, without any further required action by Executive, as of the end of Executive’s employment and Executive, at the Board’s request, will execute any documents reasonably necessary to reflect Executive’s resignation.

10.Arbitration.

(a)Arbitration. In consideration of Executive’s employment with the Company, its promise to arbitrate all employment-related disputes, and Executive’s receipt of the compensation, pay raises and other benefits paid to Executive by the Company, at present and in the future, Executive agrees that any and all controversies, claims, or disputes with anyone (including the Company and any employee, officer, director, stockholder or benefit plan of the Company in their capacity as such or otherwise) arising out of, relating to, or resulting from Executive’s employment with the Company or termination thereof, including any breach of this Agreement, shall be resolved by a neutral arbitrator through final and binding arbitration and not by way of a court or jury trial. This agreement to arbitrate is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). If the FAA is found not to apply, then this agreement to arbitrate is enforceable under the laws of the state where the Executive resides. Nothing in this agreement to arbitrate modifies the Executive’s at-will employment.

(b)Dispute Resolution. Disputes that Executive agrees to arbitrate, and thereby agrees to waive any right to a trial by jury, include any statutory claims under local, state, or federal law, including, but not limited to, claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Sarbanes Oxley Act, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the California Family Rights Act, the California Labor Code, claims of discrimination and wrongful termination, and any statutory or common law claims. Executive further understands that this Agreement to arbitrate also applies to any disputes that the Company may have with Executive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this agreement to Arbitrate does not require the Executive to arbitrate any claims that may not be subject to pre-dispute arbitration agreements as a matter of law, including claims relating to a sexual harassment or sexual assault dispute that arise or accrue after March 3, 2022. The Executive acknowledges, however, that although arbitration of such claims is not required, the Executive may agree to submit any such claims to binding arbitration pursuant to this section.

(c)Procedure. Executive agrees that any arbitration will be administered by the Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”), pursuant to its Employment Arbitration Rules & Procedures (the “JAMS Rules”). The arbitrator will have the power to decide any motions brought by any party to the arbitration, including motions for summary judgment and/or adjudication, motions to dismiss and demurrers, and motions for class certification, prior to any arbitration hearing. The arbitrator will have the power to award any remedies available under applicable law, and the arbitrator will award attorneys’ fees and costs to the prevailing party, except as prohibited by law. The Company will pay for any administrative or hearing fees charged by the administrator or JAMS, and all arbitrator’s fees, except that Executive will pay any filing fees associated with any arbitration that Executive initiates, but only so much of the filing fee as Executive would have instead paid had Executive filed a complaint in a court of law. Executive agrees that the arbitrator will administer and conduct any arbitration in accordance with the law of the state where Executive resides and that the arbitrator will apply substantive and procedural law of the state where Executive resides to any dispute or claim, without reference to the rules of conflict of law. To the extent that the JAMS Rules conflict with the law of state where Executive resides, the law of the state where Executive resides will take precedence. The decision of the arbitrator will be in writing. Any arbitration under this Agreement will be conducted in the county in which Executive resides.

    -9-

(d)Remedy. Except as provided by the Act, arbitration will be the sole, exclusive, and final remedy for any dispute between Executive and the Company. Accordingly, except as provided by the Act and this Agreement, neither Executive nor the Company will be permitted to pursue court action regarding claims that are subject to arbitration. Notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have the authority to disregard or refuse to enforce any lawful Company policy, and the arbitrator will not order or require the Company to adopt a policy not otherwise required by law which the Company has not adopted.

(e)Administrative Relief. Executive is not prohibited from pursuing an administrative claim with a local, state, or federal administrative body or government agency that is authorized to enforce or administer laws related to employment, including, but not limited to, the Department of Fair Employment and Housing, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, or the Workers’ Compensation Board. However, Executive may not pursue court action regarding any such claim, except as permitted by law.

(f)Voluntary Nature of Agreement. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive is executing this Agreement voluntarily and without any duress or undue influence by the Company or anyone else. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that Executive has carefully read this Agreement and that Executive has asked any questions needed for Executive to understand the terms, consequences and binding effect of this Agreement and fully understands it, including that EXECUTIVE IS WAIVING EXECUTIVE’S RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. Finally, Executive agrees that Executive has been provided an opportunity to seek the advice of an attorney of Executive’s choice before signing this Agreement.

11.Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a)No Duty to Mitigate. Executive will not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment contemplated by this Agreement, nor will any such payment be reduced by any earnings that Executive may receive from any other source.

(b)Waiver. No provision of this Agreement will be modified, waived or discharged unless the modification, waiver or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by Executive and by an authorized officer of the Company (other than Executive). No waiver by either party of any breach of, or of compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement by the other party will be considered a waiver of any other condition or provision or of the same condition or provision at another time.

(c)Headings. All captions and section headings used in this Agreement are for convenient reference only and do not form a part of this Agreement.

(d)Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto and supersedes in their entirety all prior representations, understandings, undertakings or agreements (whether oral or written and whether expressed or implied) of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, including but not limited to the 2021 Agreement. Accordingly, by executing this Agreement and both during and following the Term, Executive hereby forfeits and waives any rights to severance or change of control benefits set forth in any employment agreement, offer letter and/or Equity Award agreement, except as set forth in this Agreement. For purposes of clarification, following the Term, Executive will not be eligible to receive severance or change of control benefits set forth in any employment agreement, offer letter and/or Equity Award agreement. No waiver, alteration, or modification of any of the provisions of this Agreement will be binding unless in writing and signed by duly authorized representatives of the parties hereto and which specifically mention this Agreement.

    -10-

(e)Choice of Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the state where Executive resides (with the exception of its conflict of laws provisions). Any claims or legal actions by one party against the other arising out of the relationship between the parties contemplated herein (whether or not arising under this Agreement) will be commenced or maintained in any state or federal court located in the jurisdiction where Executive resides, and Executive and the Company hereby submit to the jurisdiction and venue of any such court.

(f)Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or provisions of this Agreement will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof, which will remain in full force and effect.

(g)Withholding. All payments made pursuant to this Agreement will be subject to withholding of applicable income, employment and other taxes.

(h)Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, the information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed on March 1, 2022, as amended by its subsequent Form 10-K/A, Amendment No. 1, filed on April 29, 2022 (collectively, "Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended").

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year ending December 31, 2022 or for any other period.

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, that have had a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such management estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, collectability of accounts receivable, useful lives of intangible assets, estimates related to recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation, restructuring accruals, legal contingencies, deferred income tax assets and associated valuation allowances and distribution fee commitments. These estimates generally require judgments, may involve the analysis of historical and prediction of future trends, and are subject to change from period to period. Actual results may differ from the Company’s estimates, and such differences may be material to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity ("ASU 2020-06"). The guidance simplifies an issuer's accounting for convertible debt instruments and its application of the derivatives scope exception for contracts in its own entity. The guidance eliminates two of the three models in ASC 470-20 that require separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective approach. Therefore, the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are presented under the new standard, while the comparative periods presented are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting policy.

In connection with the adoption of this standard, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment of $38.7 million to retained earnings on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022. This adjustment was primarily driven by the derecognition of interest expense related to the accretion of the debt discount associated with the embedded conversion option recorded in the prior period as required under the legacy guidance. In addition, the Company reclassified $50.7 million and issuance costs of $1.6 million from additional paid-in-capital to convertible senior notes, net on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022. The reclassification was recorded in order to combine the two legacy units of account into a single instrument classified as a liability since the bifurcation of the instrument into two units of account is no longer required under the new standard. Under the new guidance, the Company will no longer incur interest expense related to the accretion of the debt discount associated with the embedded conversion option. The Company will use the if-converted method to calculate diluted EPS. If the Company makes an irrevocable election to settle the principal of the convertible senior notes in cash and the excess conversion spread in shares, the if-converted method will result in a reduced number of shares issued to reflect only the excess conversion. Since the Company had a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022, the convertible senior notes were determined to be anti-dilutive and therefore had no impact to basic or diluted net loss per share for the period as a result of adopting ASU 2020-06.

Revenue Recognition

The Company primarily generates revenue by providing digital media and promotions solutions to its customers and partners. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

•Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer

•Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

•Determination of the transaction price

•Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

•Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

The Company provides digital promotions, including digital coupons, and/or media programs to its customers, which consist of advertisers, retail partners and advertising agencies. The Company uses its proprietary technology platforms to create, target, deliver and analyze these programs for customers. The Company typically generates revenue, derived from customer use of these programs, on a cost-per-click, cost-per-impression, or cost-per-acquisition basis, and customers are typically billed monthly. Duration-based campaigns are generally billed prior to campaign launch.

The pricing of digital promotions programs typically includes both promotion setup fees and promotion campaign fees. Promotion setup fees are related to the creation of digital promotions and set up of the underlying campaign on Quotient’s proprietary platforms for tracking of the related clicks. The Company recognizes revenues

related to promotion setup fees over time, proportionally, on a per click basis, using the number of authorized clicks, per insertion order, commencing on the date of the first click. A click refers to the consumer's action of activating a digital promotion through the Company’s proprietary technology platforms by either saving it to a retailer’s loyalty account for automatic digital redemption, or printing it for physical redemption at a retailer. Promotion campaign fees are usually determined on a per click basis. The Company typically recognizes revenues for digital promotion campaign fees as clicks occur.

The Company also has a duration-based National Promotions offering, as part of its National Promotion business. This offering provides advertisers access to the Company’s proprietary platforms for a specific period of time (the campaign period) in exchange for a fixed fee. The Company provides a single service consisting of making the advertiser’s promotions available for use on its network each day during the campaign period, which generally is between seven and twenty-eight days. The Company has a stand-ready performance obligation that is satisfied over time; therefore, the Company recognizes revenue ratably over the campaign period.

The Company’s media programs enable advertisers and retailers to distribute digital media to promote their brands and products on its retailers’ websites, and mobile applications, and through a network of affiliate publishers and non-publisher third parties that display its media offerings on their websites or mobile applications. Pricing for media campaigns is usually determined on a cost-per-impression, cost-per-click or cost-per-acquisition basis. The Company recognizes revenue each time a digital media ad is displayed or each time a user clicks on the media ad displayed on the Company’s websites, mobile applications or on third-party websites.  

Gross Versus Net Revenue Reporting

In the normal course of business and through its distribution network, the Company delivers digital media and promotions on retailers’ websites through retailers’ loyalty programs, and on the websites of digital publishers. In these situations, the Company evaluates whether it is the principal (i.e., report revenues on a gross basis) or agent (i.e., report revenues on a net basis). The Company typically reports digital promotion and media advertising revenues for campaigns placed on third-party owned properties on a gross basis; that is, the amounts billed to its customers are recorded as revenues, and distribution fees paid to retailers or digital publishers are recorded as cost of revenues. The Company is the principal because it controls the digital promotion and media advertising inventory before it is transferred to its customers. The Company’s control is evidenced by its sole ability to monetize the digital coupon and media advertising inventory, being primarily responsible to its customers, having discretion in establishing pricing for the delivery of the digital promotions and media, or a combination of these.

In other cases (e.g., sponsored search and DOOH offerings), the Company reports revenues on a net basis, that is, the costs for digital advertising inventory and third-party data paid to suppliers are deducted from gross revenues to arrive at net revenues. The Company’s performance obligation in these arrangements is to provide the use of its platforms that enables customers to bid on real-time digital advertising inventory, use of data, and other add-on features in designing and executing their campaigns. The Company charges its customers a platform fee based on a percentage of the digital advertising inventory and data costs purchased through the use of its platforms. The platform fee is not contingent on the results of a digital media advertising campaign. The Company has determined that it’s an agent in these arrangements because it does not have control of the digital advertising inventory before it is transferred to the customer and does not set prices.

The Company also introduced retailer-specific promotion and media campaign offerings (either, or both, also known as "shopper" offerings). The Company has determined that it is an agent in these arrangements as the retailer is the customer, as the retailer controls the delivery of shopper promotion and media programs on its website, and as the retailer sets the pricing. The Company’s obligation in these arrangements is to provide use of its platforms to the retailers. The retailer determines how shopper promotions and media programs are executed through the Company’s platforms. Under these arrangements, the Company reports revenue on a net basis.

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

The Company’s contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. The Company determines its best estimate of its standalone selling prices based on its overall pricing objectives, taking into consideration market conditions and other factors, including the value of its contracts and characteristics of targeted customers.

Deferred Revenues

Deferred revenues primarily relate to cash received or billings to customers associated with promotion setup fees, promotion campaign fees and digital media fees that are expected to be recognized upon click, or delivery of media impressions, or campaign duration, which generally occur within the next twelve months. The Company records deferred revenues, including amounts which are refundable, when cash payments are received or become due in advance of the Company satisfying its performance obligations. The decrease in the deferred revenue balance for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is primarily driven by $17.1 million of recognized revenue, partially offset by cash payments of $11.6 million received or due in advance of satisfying the Company’s performance obligations.

The Company’s payment terms vary by the type and size of its customers. For certain products or services and customer types, we require payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer.

Disaggregated Revenue

The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by type of services (in thousands, unaudited). The majority of the Company’s revenue is generated from sales in the United States.

Promotion	$	50,162	$	69,614
Media	28,294		45,702
Total Revenue	$	78,456	$	115,316

 Practical Expedients and Exemptions

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which it recognizes revenue for an amount where it has the right to invoice for services performed.

Sales Commissions

The Company generally incurs and expenses sales commissions upon recognition of revenue for related goods and services, which typically occurs within one year or less. Sales commissions earned related to revenues for initial contracts are commensurate with sales commissions related to renewal contracts. These costs are recorded in sales and marketing expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

The fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3—Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The Company’s fair value hierarchy for its financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows (in thousands):

Contingent consideration related to acquisitions	—		—		22,275		22,275
Total	$	—	$	—	$	22,275	$	22,275

The valuation technique used to measure the fair value of money market funds includes using quoted prices in active markets. The money market funds have a fixed net asset value of $1.0.

The contingent consideration relates to the acquisitions of Elevaate Ltd. (“Elevaate”) and Ubimo Ltd. (“Ubimo”). The fair values of contingent consideration are based on the expected achievement of certain revenue targets as defined under the acquisition agreements and were estimated using an option pricing method with significant inputs that are not observable in the market, thus classified as a Level 3 instrument. The inputs included the expected achievement of certain financial metrics over the contingent consideration period, volatility and discount rate. The fair value of the contingent consideration is classified as a liability and is re-measured each reporting period. Refer to Note 6 for further details related to the acquisitions.

The following table represents the change in the contingent consideration (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2022

The Company recorded a charge of zero and $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and March 31, 2021, respectively, for the re-measurement of the fair values of contingent consideration related to acquisitions, as a component of operating expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid $22.3 million related to Ubimo's achievement of financial metrics subject to contingent consideration during the measurement period ending December 31, 2021, and as a result, no liability existed as of March 31, 2022. Out of the total consideration paid, $5.7 million was originally measured and recorded on the acquisition date and $16.6 million was recorded subsequent to the acquisition date through changes in fair value of contingent consideration within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value Measurements of Other Financial Instruments

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the Company’s 1.75% convertible senior notes due 2022 was $192.0 million and $193.8 million, respectively. The fair value was determined based on a quoted price of the convertible senior notes in an over-the-counter market on the last trading day of the reporting period. Accordingly, these convertible senior notes are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Refer to Note 8 for additional information related to the Company’s convertible debt.

Business Combinations [Abstract]

Acquisitions

Acquisitions

Acquisition of Ubimo

On November 19, 2019, the Company acquired all outstanding shares of Ubimo, a leading data and media activation company.

The total acquisition consideration of $20.7 million consisted of $15.0 million in cash and contingent consideration of up to $24.8 million payable in cash with an estimated fair value of $5.7 million as of the acquisition date. The contingent consideration payout was based on Ubimo achieving certain financial metrics between the date of the acquisition through December 31, 2021. The acquisition date fair value was determined using an option pricing model. As of December 31, 2021, the date that the contingent consideration period ended, Ubimo achieved certain financial metrics. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid $24.7 million, of which $22.3 million related to contingent consideration and $2.4 million related to certain bonuses; and as a result, no liability existed as of March 31, 2022. Of the total $24.7 million that was paid, $5.7 million was classified within financing activity and the remaining $19.0 million was classified within operating activity on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Acquisition of Elevaate

On October 26, 2018, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of Elevaate, a sponsored search company for retail partners and CPG brands.

The total acquisition consideration of $13.3 million consisted of $7.2 million in cash and contingent consideration of up to $18.5 million payable in cash with an estimated fair value of $6.1 million as of the acquisition date. The contingent consideration payout was based on Elevaate achieving certain financial metrics between February 1, 2019 through January 31, 2021. The acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration was determined by using an option pricing model. The fair value of the contingent consideration was re-measured every reporting period. As of January 31, 2021, the date that the contingent consideration period ended, Elevaate achieved certain financial metrics. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company paid $9.0 million, of which $8.6 million related to contingent consideration and $0.4 million related to certain bonuses; and, as a result, no liability existed as of December 31, 2021. Of the total $9.0 million that was paid, $6.1 million was classified within financing activity and the remaining $2.9 million was classified within operating activity on the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

 Each of these acquisitions were accounted for as a business combination. Accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date when control was obtained. The Company expensed all transaction costs in the period in which they were incurred. The Company acquired various intangible assets resulting from these acquisitions, such as, customer relationships, vendor relationships, developed technologies and trade names. The fair value of the customer relationships was determined by using a

discounted cash flow model. The fair value of the vendor relationships was determined by using a cost approach. The fair value of developed technologies was determined by using the relief from royalty method or the with-and-without method. The fair value of trade names was determined by using the relief from royalty method. The excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill arising from the acquisitions are largely attributable to the synergies expected to be realized. None of the goodwill recorded from these acquisitions were deductible for income tax purposes.

For each of these transactions, the fair value of the consideration transferred and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was determined by the Company and in doing so management engaged a third-party valuation specialist to measure the fair value of identifiable intangible assets and obligations related to deferred revenue and contingent consideration. The estimated fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the relevant acquisition is based on management’s best estimates.

The following table summarizes the acquisition consideration and the related fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]

Debt Obligations

Debt Obligations

2017 Convertible Senior Notes

In November 2017, the Company issued and sold $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.75% convertible senior notes due December 2022 in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “notes”). The notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and bear interest at a fixed rate of 1.75% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on June 1, 2018. The total net proceeds from the debt offering, after deducting transaction costs, were approximately $193.8 million.  

The conversion rate for the notes is initially 57.6037 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $17.36 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events.

Holders of the notes may convert their notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding September 1, 2022, only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2018 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five-business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate for the notes on each such trading day; (3) if the Company calls any or all of the notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after September 1, 2022, holders may convert all or any portion of their notes at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date regardless of the foregoing conditions. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at its election. The Company intends to settle the principal amount of the notes with cash.

The Company may not redeem the notes prior to December 5, 2020. It may redeem for cash all or any portion of the notes, at its option, on or after December 5, 2020 if the last reported sale price of its common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending not more than three trading days preceding the date on which it provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. No sinking fund is provided for the notes.

If the Company undergoes a fundamental change prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

In accounting for the issuance of the notes, prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022, the Company separated the notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component of $149.3 million was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar debt instrument that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component of $50.7 million, representing the conversion option, was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the par value of the notes. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount (“debt discount”) was amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes at an effective interest rate of 5.8%.

Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022, the Company allocated the total debt issuance costs incurred of $6.2 million to the liability and equity components of the notes in proportion to the respective values. Issuance costs attributable to the liability component of $4.6 million were amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the contractual terms of the notes. Issuance costs attributable to the equity component of $1.6 million were netted with the equity component in additional paid-in capital.

Subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022, which the Company elected to adopt using the modified retrospective method, the Company removed the impact of recognizing the equity component of the notes (at issuance and subsequent accounting impact of additional interest expense from debt discount amortization). The cumulative effect of the accounting change as of January 1, 2022 was an increase to the carrying amount of the convertible notes of $10.4 million, an increase to beginning retained earnings of $38.7 million, and a reduction to additional paid-in capital of $49.1 million.

ABL Credit Agreement

On November 17, 2021, the Company, as borrower, and certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, entered into a Loan, Guaranty and Security Agreement (the "ABL Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association, and certain other financial institutions from time to time that may become parties to the agreement (the "Lenders").

The ABL Credit Agreement provides for an asset-based revolving credit facility (the "ABL Facility") for available borrowings up to $100.0 million with the actual amount dependent on a "borrowing base" number consisting of the sum of various categories of eligible accounts receivable (the lesser of such number and $100.0 million, the "Line Cap"). The ABL Facility matures and all outstanding amounts, if any, become due and

payable on November 17, 2026 ("fixed ABL maturity date"), except that the maturity date shall be accelerated to the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity of the Company’s outstanding 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Notes”), unless (i) the Notes are repaid in full or converted to equity at least 91 days prior to the maturity of the Notes, (ii) the Notes are refinanced and/or extended to a maturity date that is at least 91 days after the fixed ABL maturity date, or (iii) during the 91 day period prior, the Company has sufficient cash to repay the Notes in full, the Company meets a certain liquidity test after giving pro forma effect to the repayment to the Notes, and there is no event of default under the ABL Facility. The commitments of the Lenders under the ABL Facility will terminate and outstanding borrowings under the ABL Facility will mature on the fifth anniversary of the closing of the ABL Facility or sooner as described above.

The ABL Credit Agreement includes conditions to borrowings, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default customary for financings of this type and size. In the event of default, all obligations will be automatically due and payable and all commitments will terminate. The ABL Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio at all times. The ABL Credit Agreement limits the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, create liens on any assets, pay dividends or make certain restricted payments, consummate certain assets sales and merge, consolidate and/or sell or dispose of certain assets. The ABL Credit Agreement also requires that if the Company's Excess Availability (defined as the Line Cap less borrowed amounts or issued letters of credit) is less than the greater of (i) the Line Cap and (ii) $10.0 million, the Company will maintain a fixed coverage charge ratio of at least 1.00 to 1.00. In addition, the ABL Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, which may require the Company to pay an additional 2% interest on the outstanding loans under the ABL Credit Agreement. As set forth in the ABL Credit Agreement, borrowings under the ABL Facility initially will bear interest at a rate equal to, for BSBY Loans, the BSBY Rate plus the Applicable Margin or, for Base Rate Loans, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The Applicable Margin is determined based on average daily borrowing availability.

As of March 31, 2022, the borrowing base was $60.0 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no borrowings or repayments under the ABL Facility.

Stock-based Compensation

2013 Equity Incentive Plan

In October 2013, the Company adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”), which became effective in March 2014 and serves as the successor to the Company’s 2006 Stock Plan (the “2006 Plan”). Pursuant to the 2013 Plan, 4,000,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for grant, plus (1) any shares that were reserved and available for issuance under the 2006 Plan at the time the 2013 Plan became effective, (2) any shares that become available upon forfeiture or repurchase by the Company under the 2006 Plan and (3) any shares added to the 2013 Plan pursuant to the next paragraph.

Under the 2013 Plan, the Company may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based stock and units to employees, directors and consultants. The shares available will be increased at the beginning of each year by the lesser of (i) 4% of outstanding common stock on the last day of the immediately preceding year, or (ii) such number determined by the Board of Directors and subject to additional restrictions relating to the maximum number of shares issuable pursuant to incentive stock options. Under the 2013 Plan, both the ISOs and NSOs are granted at a price per share not less than 100% of the fair market value on the effective date of the grant. The Board of Directors determines the vesting period for each option award on the grant date, and the options generally expire 10 years from the grant date or such shorter term as may be determined by the Board of Directors.

Stock Options

There were no option grants during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Restricted Stock Units and Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units

The fair value of RSUs equals the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The RSUs are excluded from issued and outstanding shares until they are vested.

On March 1, 2021, the Company granted a total of 938,831 performance-based restricted stock units (“2021 PSU Awards”), under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, to certain executive leaders with a grant date fair value of $13.28. The PSU Award represents the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock upon meeting certain vesting conditions. The PSU Awards will vest in three years subject to the achievement of certain operating performance goals, stock performance goals and continued employment. The fair value of the PSU Award was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation. As of March 31, 2022, the Company performed an assessment and determined that the likelihood of achievement of certain operating performance goals was not deemed probable. As such, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, no compensation expense was recognized in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements related to the 2021 PSU Awards. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded $0.3 million in compensation expense in its condensed consolidated financial statements related to the 2021 PSU Awards.

On March 1, 2022, (“2022 Grant Date”), the Company granted a total of 1,171,494 performance-based restricted stock units (“2022 PSU Awards”), under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, to certain executive leaders with a grant date fair value of $4.82, $3.87 and $3.14, for each respective tranche. The PSU Award represents the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock upon meeting certain vesting conditions. The PSU Awards vest subject to the achievement of stock performance goals and the awardee being an employee at the time of vesting. Any unvested portion of the PSU award will be forfeited on the third anniversary of the 2022 Grant Date. The fair value of the PSU Award was measured using a Monte Carlo simulation. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the expense recognized in its condensed consolidated financial statements related to the 2022 PSU Awards was $0.3 million.

A summary of the Company’s stock option and RSU, including PSU award activity under the 2013 Plan is as follows:

The aggregate intrinsic value disclosed in the table above is based on the difference between the exercise price of the options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock.

The aggregate total fair value of options vested was $0.9 million and $1.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), which became effective in March 2014. Eligible employees can enroll and elect to contribute up to 15% of their base compensation through payroll withholdings in each offering period which is six months in duration, subject to certain limitations. The purchase price of the stock is the lower of 85% of the fair market value on (a) the first day of the offering period or (b) the purchase date.

The fair value of the option feature is estimated using the Black-Scholes model for the period presented based on the following assumptions:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022	2021
Expected life (in years)	0.5	0.5
Risk-free interest rate	0.07%	0.12%
Volatility	60%	60%
Dividend yield	—	—

 

As of March 31, 2022, a total of 2,401,697 shares of common stock were issued under the ESPP since inception of the plan. As of March 31, 2022, a total of 1,998,303 shares are available for issuance under the ESPP.

Stock-based Compensation Expense

The following table sets forth the total stock-based compensation expense resulting from stock options, RSUs and ESPP shares included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):

Total stock-based compensation expense	$	5,742	$	5,844

 

As of March 31, 2022, there was $53.7 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense, of which $4.6 million is related to stock options and ESPP shares, and $49.1 million is related to RSUs. The total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and ESPP shares as of March 31, 2022 will be amortized over a weighted-average period of 1.58 years. The total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs as of March 31, 2022 will be amortized over a weighted-average period of 2.68 years.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company capitalized $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense in projects in process as part of property and equipment, net on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Common Stock Repurchases

The Board of Directors previously approved programs for the Company to repurchase shares of its common stock. In February 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $50.0 million of its common stock from February 2021 through February 2022 (the "February 2021 Program"). During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock, nor did the Company repurchase any of its common stock thereafter. The Company terminated the February 2021 Program prior to its expiration.

Leases

Leases [Abstract]

Leases

Leases

The Company has entered into operating leases primarily for office facilities. These leases have terms which typically range from 1 year to 10 years, and often include options to renew. These renewal terms can extend the lease term up to 6 years, and are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. These operating leases are included as operating lease right-of-use assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The present value of the Company’s obligation to make lease payments are included in other current liabilities and other non-current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has entered into short-term leases primarily for office facilities with an initial term of twelve months or less, and a professional sports team suite with a 20-year term, which it uses for sales and marketing purposes. The effective lease term for the professional sports team suite is based on the cumulative days available for use throughout the 20-year contractual term, which is less than twelve months and therefore is classified as a short-term lease. As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s lease commitment of $5.4 million, relating to the professional sports team suite, expires in 2034, and does not reflect short-term lease costs. These leases are not recorded on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet due to the accounting policy election as discussed under Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

 All operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $1.5 million in total lease costs during each respective period, which is comprised of $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively, in operating lease costs for right-

of-use assets and $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, in short-term lease costs related to short-term operating leases.

 Because the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. The Company has certain contracts for office facilities which may contain lease and non-lease components which it has elected to be treated as a single lease component due to the accounting policy election as discussed under Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

During the first quarter of 2022, the Company exited occupancy of its leased office space in San Francisco, California to align with its continued operational and cost optimization efforts. The Company has the ability and intent to sublease the office space for the remainder of the lease term. The Company determined that a triggering event had occurred that required an interim impairment assessment for certain of its long-lived and right-of-use assets.

The Company performed an interim impairment assessment in the first quarter of 2022. In measuring the estimated amount of long-lived and right-of-use asset impairment, the Company considered estimated future sublease income including the consideration of local real estate market conditions. The Company also factored the time to identify a tenant and to enter into an agreement. Based on a discounted cash flow analysis, the Company concluded that the carrying value of certain long-lived and right-of-use assets will not be recoverable. As such, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $6.1 million within general & administrative expenses on its condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Obligations

The Company has unconditional purchase commitments, primarily related to distribution fees, software license fees and marketing services, of $6.4 million as of March 31, 2022.

Some of our agreements with retailers include certain guaranteed distribution fees which, in some cases, may apply to multiple annual periods. If the adoption and usage of our platforms do not meet projections or minimums, these guaranteed distribution fees may not be recoverable and any shortfall may be payable by us at the end of the applicable period. We considered various factors in our assessment including our historical experience with the transaction volumes through the retailer and comparative retailers, ongoing communications with the retailer to increase its marketing efforts to promote the digital platform, as well as the projected revenues, and associated revenue share payments. For example, in 2020, the Company's efforts to implement, with Albertsons, one of the Company’s solutions resulted in multiple disputes being raised by each of the parties against the other, one of which disputes resulted in the Company not being able to meet the contractual minimum at the end of the applicable period under the agreement. In order to resolve certain of the disputes regarding the parties' respective obligations, the Company recognized a loss of $8.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2020. This loss was included in cost of revenues on our consolidated statements of operations.

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company notified Albertsons that due to the Albertsons' failure to meet certain obligations under the agreement, the Company is not obligated to meet the contractual minimums for the period that ended in October 2021. In connection with renewal discussions between the parties, the Company received a letter in October 2021 from Albertsons notifying us of their intent to early terminate our agreement related to the delivery of promotions and media campaigns, effective December 31, 2021. The Company informed Albertsons that we disputed their right to terminate the agreement prior to March 31, 2022. On November 16, 2021, the Company notified Albertsons it was terminating the Agreement effective November 18, 2021, due to Albertsons’ failure to cure its material breach of the Agreement. Consistent with its offer, the Company continued to provide certain services past the termination date for the benefit of its CPG customers; and ceased providing the last of such services on February 26, 2022. The parties are currently in litigation. If the contractual minimum applicable to the period that ended in October 2021 is enforceable, the Company may recognize a loss that, depending on a variety of factors, is estimated to be as high as $8.5 million.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, to facilitate transactions related to the Company’s operations, the Company indemnifies certain parties, including CPGs, advertising agencies, retailers and other third parties. The Company has agreed to hold certain parties harmless against losses arising from claims of intellectual property infringement or other liabilities relating to or arising from our products or services, or other contractual infringement. The term of these indemnity provisions generally survive termination or expiration of the applicable agreement. To date, the Company has not recorded any liabilities related to these agreements. We also have entered into indemnification

agreements with our officers and directors, and our Amended and Restated Bylaws also contain provisions relating to circumstances under which the Company may indemnify certain other parties.

The Company’s founder and chief executive officer (“CEO”) is subject to a claim from a third party, alleging that he owes certain amounts to the third party in connection with fundraising activities for Quotient that occurred between 1998 and 2006. The Company agreed to advance certain defense costs, subject to an undertaking to repay such amounts if, and to the extent that, it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemnification. The matter is ongoing. If this matter is resolved in favor of the third party and the Company is required to indemnify the CEO for a loss, the Company may be required to make an indemnity payment. While the Company maintains directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, such insurance may not be applicable, adequate or cover all liabilities that may be incurred.

Litigation

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may be involved in lawsuits, claims, investigations, and proceedings consisting of intellectual property, commercial, employment, and other matters. The Company records a provision for these claims when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss, or a range of the potential loss, can be reasonably estimated. These provisions are reviewed regularly and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information or events pertaining to a particular case. In the event that one or more of these matters were to result in a claim against the Company, an adverse outcome, including a judgment or settlement, may cause a material adverse effect on the Company’s future business, operating results, or financial condition.

The Company believes that liabilities associated with existing claims are remote, and therefore, the Company has not recorded any accrual for existing claims as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company expenses legal fees in the period in which they are incurred.

Legal Proceedings

The Company does not list all routine litigation matters with which it is a party. The Company discusses below certain pending matters. In determining whether to discuss a pending matter, the Company considers both quantitative and qualitative factors to assess materiality, such as, among others, the amount of damages alleged and the nature of other relief sought, if specified; its view of the merits of the claims and of the strength of its defenses; and whether the action purports to be, or is, a class action the jurisdiction in which the proceeding is pending.

Catalina Marketing Corp. v. Quotient Technology Inc. On February 24, 2021, Catalina Marketing Corporation filed a complaint in the Florida Circuit Court of the Sixth Judicial District against the Company asserting claims for unlawful and unfair trade practices; tortious interference with business relationship; and tortious interference with prospective business relationship. The complaint alleges that the Company engaged in predatory pricing practices and misleading communications with potential customers in connection with its in-lane coupon solution. The complaint seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages and injunctive relief. While it is not possible at this time to predict with any degree of certainty the ultimate outcome of this action, the Company believes that Catalina’s claims lack merit.

Result Marketing Group, Ltd. v. Southeastern Grocers et al. On June 17, 2021, Result Marketing Group, Ltd. (“RMG”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, against Southeastern Grocers, LLC, Bio-Lo, LLC, Winn-Dixie Stores, Inc. (collectively, "SEG") and the Company. The complaint alleges SEG breached its non-disclosure agreement with RMG by providing the Company with RMG's trade secrets, including the business concept of and "playbook" for a retail media hub. The complaint alleges the Company and SEG misappropriated such trade secrets to develop the SEG Media Hub, and that the Company further misappropriated such trade secrets to develop its "retail performance media platform", which it sells to end users. The complaint further alleges that the Company interfered with RMG's contract and prospective business relationship with SEG. RMG contends that SEG defrauded it of no less than $59 million, and that the Company and SEG are jointly and severally liable for treble damages of no less than $177 million. The complaint seeks compensatory and punitive damages, a constructive trust, and attorney's fees. While it is not possible at this time to predict with any degree of certainty the ultimate outcome of this action, the Company believes that RMG’s claims lack merit.

Fortis Advisors LLC v. Quotient Technology, Inc. On August 20, 2021, Fortis Advisors LLC, as the SavingStar stockholder representative, ("Fortis") filed a complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery alleging breach of contract, declaratory judgment, and in the alternative, breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The complaint alleges that the Company ceased to make generally available the SavingStar customer relationship management (CRM) business, which would trigger an earnout payment of $8.5 million under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated August 23, 2018, between Quotient Technology Inc. and SavingStar, Inc. While it is not possible at this time to predict with any degree of certainty the ultimate outcome of this action, the Company believes that Fortis's claims lack merit.

Albertsons Companies, Inc. v. Quotient Technology, Inc. On November 16, 2021, the Company informed Albertsons Companies, Inc. (“Albertsons”) that, in light of Albertsons' failure to cure its material breach of the Services and Data Agreement ("the Agreement"), it was terminating the Agreement effective November 19, 2021. The Company offered to continue to provide certain services beyond the termination date for the benefit of the CPGs. On November 19, 2021, Albertsons filed a complaint against the Company in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara alleging claims of breach of contract and breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The complaint alleges that the Company failed to achieve alleged minimum revenue targets, failed to make certain revenue share payments in the amount of $5.0 million, failed to pay a guaranteed annual minimum payment of $10.0 million under Statement of Work (SOW) No. 5, and improperly terminated the Agreement. On November 22, 2021, consistent with the Company's offer in its November 16, 2021 termination letter, the parties entered into a stipulation, where the Company agreed to sell campaigns through December 15, 2021, and provide services and support for those campaigns through February 26, 2022 so long as Albertsons provided the necessary logistical steps to enable the Company to deliver the services and support. The Company also agreed to support the In-Lane Tool through December 10, 2021. On December 9, 2021, Albertsons filed for a temporary restraining order to prevent the Company from discontinuing its digital-coupon-service or its In-Lane Tool or otherwise refusing to support Albertsons advertising and coupon programs, and for an order to show cause re preliminary injunction. On December 13, 2021, the Court issued an order denying Albertsons’ request for a temporary restraining order and order to show cause re preliminary injunction because, on the basis of the evidence presented by Albertsons, it found that Albertsons was unlikely to prevail on its claims at trial. While it is not possible at this time to predict with any degree of certainty the ultimate outcome of this action, the Company believes that Albertsons’ claims lack merit.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Mar. 31, 2022

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, the information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed on March 1, 2022, as amended by its subsequent Form 10-K/A, Amendment No. 1, filed on April 29, 2022 (collectively, "Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended").

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year ending December 31, 2022 or for any other period.

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, that have had a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such management estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition, collectability of accounts receivable, useful lives of intangible assets, estimates related to recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation, restructuring accruals, legal contingencies, deferred income tax assets and associated valuation allowances and distribution fee commitments. These estimates generally require judgments, may involve the analysis of historical and prediction of future trends, and are subject to change from period to period. Actual results may differ from the Company’s estimates, and such differences may be material to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity ("ASU 2020-06"). The guidance simplifies an issuer's accounting for convertible debt instruments and its application of the derivatives scope exception for contracts in its own entity. The guidance eliminates two of the three models in ASC 470-20 that require separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective approach. Therefore, the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are presented under the new standard, while the comparative periods presented are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting policy.

In connection with the adoption of this standard, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment of $38.7 million to retained earnings on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022. This adjustment was primarily driven by the derecognition of interest expense related to the accretion of the debt discount associated with the embedded conversion option recorded in the prior period as required under the legacy guidance. In addition, the Company reclassified $50.7 million and issuance costs of $1.6 million from additional paid-in-capital to convertible senior notes, net on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2022. The reclassification was recorded in order to combine the two legacy units of account into a single instrument classified as a liability since the bifurcation of the instrument into two units of account is no longer required under the new standard. Under the new guidance, the Company will no longer incur interest expense related to the accretion of the debt discount associated with the embedded conversion option. The Company will use the if-converted method to calculate diluted EPS. If the Company makes an irrevocable election to settle the principal of the convertible senior notes in cash and the excess conversion spread in shares, the if-converted method will result in a reduced number of shares issued to reflect only the excess conversion. Since the Company had a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022, the convertible senior notes were determined to be anti-dilutive and therefore had no impact to basic or diluted net loss per share for the period as a result of adopting ASU 2020-06.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

The Company primarily generates revenue by providing digital media and promotions solutions to its customers and partners. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

•Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer

•Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

•Determination of the transaction price

•Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

•Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

The Company provides digital promotions, including digital coupons, and/or media programs to its customers, which consist of advertisers, retail partners and advertising agencies. The Company uses its proprietary technology platforms to create, target, deliver and analyze these programs for customers. The Company typically generates revenue, derived from customer use of these programs, on a cost-per-click, cost-per-impression, or cost-per-acquisition basis, and customers are typically billed monthly. Duration-based campaigns are generally billed prior to campaign launch.

The pricing of digital promotions programs typically includes both promotion setup fees and promotion campaign fees. Promotion setup fees are related to the creation of digital promotions and set up of the underlying campaign on Quotient’s proprietary platforms for tracking of the related clicks. The Company recognizes revenues

related to promotion setup fees over time, proportionally, on a per click basis, using the number of authorized clicks, per insertion order, commencing on the date of the first click. A click refers to the consumer's action of activating a digital promotion through the Company’s proprietary technology platforms by either saving it to a retailer’s loyalty account for automatic digital redemption, or printing it for physical redemption at a retailer. Promotion campaign fees are usually determined on a per click basis. The Company typically recognizes revenues for digital promotion campaign fees as clicks occur.

The Company also has a duration-based National Promotions offering, as part of its National Promotion business. This offering provides advertisers access to the Company’s proprietary platforms for a specific period of time (the campaign period) in exchange for a fixed fee. The Company provides a single service consisting of making the advertiser’s promotions available for use on its network each day during the campaign period, which generally is between seven and twenty-eight days. The Company has a stand-ready performance obligation that is satisfied over time; therefore, the Company recognizes revenue ratably over the campaign period.

The Company’s media programs enable advertisers and retailers to distribute digital media to promote their brands and products on its retailers’ websites, and mobile applications, and through a network of affiliate publishers and non-publisher third parties that display its media offerings on their websites or mobile applications. Pricing for media campaigns is usually determined on a cost-per-impression, cost-per-click or cost-per-acquisition basis. The Company recognizes revenue each time a digital media ad is displayed or each time a user clicks on the media ad displayed on the Company’s websites, mobile applications or on third-party websites.  

Gross Versus Net Revenue Reporting

In the normal course of business and through its distribution network, the Company delivers digital media and promotions on retailers’ websites through retailers’ loyalty programs, and on the websites of digital publishers. In these situations, the Company evaluates whether it is the principal (i.e., report revenues on a gross basis) or agent (i.e., report revenues on a net basis). The Company typically reports digital promotion and media advertising revenues for campaigns placed on third-party owned properties on a gross basis; that is, the amounts billed to its customers are recorded as revenues, and distribution fees paid to retailers or digital publishers are recorded as cost of revenues. The Company is the principal because it controls the digital promotion and media advertising inventory before it is transferred to its customers. The Company’s control is evidenced by its sole ability to monetize the digital coupon and media advertising inventory, being primarily responsible to its customers, having discretion in establishing pricing for the delivery of the digital promotions and media, or a combination of these.

In other cases (e.g., sponsored search and DOOH offerings), the Company reports revenues on a net basis, that is, the costs for digital advertising inventory and third-party data paid to suppliers are deducted from gross revenues to arrive at net revenues. The Company’s performance obligation in these arrangements is to provide the use of its platforms that enables customers to bid on real-time digital advertising inventory, use of data, and other add-on features in designing and executing their campaigns. The Company charges its customers a platform fee based on a percentage of the digital advertising inventory and data costs purchased through the use of its platforms. The platform fee is not contingent on the results of a digital media advertising campaign. The Company has determined that it’s an agent in these arrangements because it does not have control of the digital advertising inventory before it is transferred to the customer and does not set prices.

The Company also introduced retailer-specific promotion and media campaign offerings (either, or both, also known as "shopper" offerings). The Company has determined that it is an agent in these arrangements as the retailer is the customer, as the retailer controls the delivery of shopper promotion and media programs on its website, and as the retailer sets the pricing. The Company’s obligation in these arrangements is to provide use of its platforms to the retailers. The retailer determines how shopper promotions and media programs are executed through the Company’s platforms. Under these arrangements, the Company reports revenue on a net basis.

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

The Company’s contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. The Company determines its best estimate of its standalone selling prices based on its overall pricing objectives, taking into consideration market conditions and other factors, including the value of its contracts and characteristics of targeted customers.

Deferred Revenues

Deferred revenues primarily relate to cash received or billings to customers associated with promotion setup fees, promotion campaign fees and digital media fees that are expected to be recognized upon click, or delivery of media impressions, or campaign duration, which generally occur within the next twelve months. The Company records deferred revenues, including amounts which are refundable, when cash payments are received or become due in advance of the Company satisfying its performance obligations. The decrease in the deferred revenue balance for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is primarily driven by $17.1 million of recognized revenue, partially offset by cash payments of $11.6 million received or due in advance of satisfying the Company’s performance obligations.

The Company’s payment terms vary by the type and size of its customers. For certain products or services and customer types, we require payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer.

 Practical Expedients and Exemptions

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which it recognizes revenue for an amount where it has the right to invoice for services performed.

Sales Commissions

The Company generally incurs and expenses sales commissions upon recognition of revenue for related goods and services, which typically occurs within one year or less. Sales commissions earned related to revenues for initial contracts are commensurate with sales commissions related to renewal contracts. These costs are recorded in sales and marketing expenses within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
