TABLE OF CONTENTS
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
We may make certain statements, including in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or 10-Q, including the information contained in Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations", and the information incorporated by reference in this 10-Q, that constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal and state securities laws. Forward-looking statements are all statements other than statements of historical fact. We attempt to identify these forward-looking statements by words such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "might," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "target," "goal," "predict," "intend," "potential," "continue," "seek" and other comparable words. Similarly, statements that describe our business strategy, goals, prospects, opportunities, outlook, objectives, plans or intentions are also forward-looking statements. These statements may relate to, but are not limited to, expectations of future operating results or financial performance; expectations regarding the impact on our business of the coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and global measures to mitigate the spread of the virus; macroeconomic trends that we expect may influence our business, including any recession or changes in consumer behavior resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic; plans for financing and capital expenditures; expectations regarding liquidity, customer payments and compliance with debt and financing covenants and other payment obligations; expectations regarding enhanced commercial relationships and the development and introduction of new products; potential limitations on our net operating loss carryforwards and other tax assets; regulatory compliance and expected changes in the regulatory or privacy landscape affecting our business; expected impact of litigation and regulatory proceedings; and plans for growth and future operations, as well as assumptions relating to the foregoing. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. These statements are based on expectations and assumptions as of the date of this 10-Q regarding future events and business performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual events or results to be materially different from any future events or results expressed or implied by these statements. These factors include those set forth in the following discussion and within Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of this 10-Q and elsewhere within this report; those identified within Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021; those identified within Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022; and those identified in other documents that we file from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC.

You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this 10-Q. You should carefully review the risk factors described in this 10-Q and in other documents that we file from time to time with the SEC. Except as required by applicable law, including the rules and regulations of the SEC, we undertake no obligation, and expressly disclaim any duty, to publicly update or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of any new information, future events or otherwise.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.
Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Specifically, change in fair value of financing derivatives, accretion of debt discount, and amortization of deferred financing costs have been aggregated within other operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In addition, principal payments on software license arrangements, revolving line of credit issuance costs, and payments for taxes related to net share settlement of equity awards have been aggregated within other financing activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this quarterly report have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures contained in this quarterly report comply with the requirements of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), for a quarterly report on Form 10-Q and are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. These interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the "2021 10-K"). The Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be anticipated for the entire year ending December 31, 2022 or thereafter. All references to June 30, 2022 and 2021 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited. Use of Estimates and Judgments in the Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and judgments are inherent in the analysis and the measurement of management's standalone selling price, principal versus agent revenue recognition, determination of performance obligations, determination of transaction price, including the determination of variable consideration and allocation of transaction price to performance obligations, deferred tax assets and liabilities, including the identification and quantification of income tax liabilities due to uncertain tax positions, the valuation and recoverability of goodwill, intangible and other long-lived assets, the determination of appropriate discount rates for lease accounting, the probability of exercising either lease renewal or termination clauses, the assessment of potential loss from contingencies, the fair value determination of contingent consideration from business combinations, financing-related liabilities and warrants, and the valuation of options, performance-based and market-based stock awards. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in those estimates. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis.
Business Combination
In December 2021, the Company and two newly formed, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Shareablee, Inc. ("Shareablee"), pursuant to which the Company acquired Shareablee (the "Merger"). Total consideration paid or payable by the Company related to the Merger (valued as of the closing date of the Merger) was $31.4 million, which included $5.6 million for the fair value of contingent consideration payable based on the achievement of certain contractual milestones or future revenue performance. The maximum amount of contingent consideration payable under the Merger is $8.6 million.
The contingent consideration is classified as a liability due to the fact it will be settled in cash or a variable number of shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 ("Common Stock") (or a combination thereof), and the amount of the payment is not dependent upon the fair value of the Common Stock. The contingent consideration liability is measured at fair value on a recurring basis until the contingency is resolved.
The fair value of the contingent consideration liability is estimated using a combination of valuation techniques. One technique is an option pricing model within a Monte Carlo simulation that determines an average projected payment value across numerous iterations. This technique determines projected payments based on simulated revenues derived from an internal forecast, adjusted for a selected revenue volatility and risk premium based on market data for comparable guideline public companies. The other technique is a discounted cash flow model that assumes achievement of the contractual milestones, resulting in payment of the full deferred amount. In both techniques, the projected payments are then discounted back to the valuation date at the Company's cost of debt using a term commensurate with the contractual payment dates.
In March 2022, the Company determined sufficient achievement of the milestones had been demonstrated and the full amount of the contingent consideration was reasonably certain to be payable. In April 2022, the contingency was resolved and the full amount was deemed payable, subject to reduction for any pending indemnification claims and other terms set forth in the Merger Agreement. The resolution of this contingency eliminated the option pricing model as a valuation technique, and as a result the fair value was remeasured using only the discounted cash flow model. The Company expects to settle the liability in three installments of $3.7 million, $3.7 million and $1.2 million payable in any combination of cash and Common Stock (at the Company's election) in December 2022, 2023 and 2024, respectively.
The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability as of June 30, 2022 was $8.0 million. The loss due to change in fair value of $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was classified within general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The loss due to change in fair value for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was negligible.
Refer to Footnote 6, Fair Value Measurements, for additional information on the fair value of the contingent consideration. Preferred Stock
In January 2021, the Company entered into separate Securities Purchase Agreements with each of Charter Communications Holding Company, LLC ("Charter"), Qurate Retail, Inc. ("Qurate") and Pine Investor, LLC ("Pine") (the "Securities Purchase Agreements") for the issuance and sale of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 ("Preferred Stock") described in Footnote 4, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity. The issuance of the Preferred Stock pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreements (the "Transactions") and related matters were approved by the Company's stockholders on March 9, 2021 and completed on March 10, 2021. The Preferred Stock is contingently redeemable upon certain deemed liquidation events, such as a change in control. Because a deemed liquidation event could constitute a redemption event outside of the Company's control, all shares of Preferred Stock have been presented outside of permanent equity in mezzanine equity on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The instrument was initially recognized at fair value net of issuance costs. The Company reassesses whether the Preferred Stock is currently redeemable, or probable to become redeemable in the future, as of each reporting date. If the instrument meets either of these criteria, the Company will accrete the carrying value to the redemption value. The Preferred Stock has not been adjusted to its redemption amount as of June 30, 2022 because a deemed liquidation event is not considered probable.
The Preferred Stock includes a change of control put option which allows the holders of the Preferred Stock to require the Company to repurchase such holders' shares in cash in an amount equal to the initial purchase price plus accrued dividends. The change of control put option was determined to be a derivative liability. As of June 30, 2022, the probability of a change of control was determined to be remote and the fair value of the change of control derivative was determined to be negligible.
Warrants Liability
In June 2019, the Company issued warrants to CVI Investments, Inc. ("CVI") in connection with the private placement described in Footnote 4, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity. The warrants were determined to be freestanding financial instruments that qualify for liability treatment as a result of net cash settlement features associated with a cap on the issuance of shares, under certain circumstances, or upon a change of control. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.
The fair value of each warrant is estimated utilizing an option pricing model. Significant valuation inputs include the price and expected volatility of the Company's Common Stock, risk-free rate, and the remaining term of the warrants. As of June 30, 2022, the probability of a change of control was determined to be remote and did not require an enhancement to the valuation technique.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
In March 2021, the Company recorded a $9.6 million loss on debt extinguishment related to the payoff of its senior secured convertible notes (the "Notes") and a foreign secured promissory note (the "Secured Term Note"). Loss on extinguishment of debt represents the difference between the carrying value of the Company's debt instruments and any consideration paid to its creditors in the form of cash or shares of the Company's Common Stock on the extinguishment date. These transactions are described in Footnote 5, Debt. Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net represents income and expenses incurred that are generally not recurring in nature or are not part of the Company's normal operations. The following is a summary of the significant components of other income (expense), net:

Total other income (expense), net | | | | | $ | 4,557 | | | $ | (6,508) | | | $ | 6,990 | | | $ | (14,782) | | | | | |
Loss Per Share
The Company uses the two-class method to calculate net loss per share. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that treats a participating security as having rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available to common stockholders. Under the two-class method, earnings for the period are allocated between common stockholders and participating security holders based on their respective rights to receive dividends as if all undistributed book earnings for the period were distributed.
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing total net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. This includes the effect of vested and deferred restricted stock units granted to members of the Company's Board of Directors ("Board") and certain employees. These awards are expected to be settled in shares of Common Stock and generally distributed upon the earlier of the individual's separation from service or a change of control. Diluted loss per share includes the effect of potential common shares, such as the Company's Preferred Stock, Notes, warrants, stock options and restricted stock units, and contingent consideration liability to the extent the effect is dilutive. In periods with a net loss available to common stockholders, the anti-dilutive effect of these potential common shares is excluded and diluted net loss per share is equal to basic net loss per share.
The following is a summary of the Common Stock equivalents for the securities outstanding during the respective periods that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share, as their effect would be anti-dilutive:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, | | | | |

(1) Includes the effect of potential Common Stock that would be issued to settle unpaid dividends accrued to holders of the Preferred Stock if they elected to convert their shares at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later).
(2) A contingent consideration liability was recognized as part of the Shareablee acquisition described in Footnote 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The liability payments may be settled in any combination of cash or shares of Common Stock (at the Company's election) based on the volume-weighted average trading price of the Common Stock for the ten trading days prior to the date of each payment. Settlement of this liability in Common Stock could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in future periods. The Company calculated a potential anti-dilutive share count based on the expected payments totaling $8.6 million and the $2.06 per share closing price of the Company's Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on June 30, 2022.

A significant portion of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards are subject to an annual limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company anticipates the Transactions may have triggered further limitations but has not yet reached a final conclusion as to whether an ownership change occurred and to what extent its net operating loss carryforwards are further limited. If an ownership change occurred as a result of the Transactions, the annual limitation under Section 382 may cause a significant portion of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards to expire prior to use. Due to the Company's valuation allowance position in the United States, the required revaluation of its
deferred tax assets related to these limited U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryforwards is not expected to have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

4.Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity
2021 Issuance of Preferred Stock
On March 10, 2021, the Company issued and sold 82,527,609 shares of Preferred Stock in exchange for aggregate gross proceeds of $204.0 million. Net proceeds from the Transactions totaled $187.9 million after deducting issuance costs.
The Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holders at any time into shares of Common Stock based on a conversion rate set in accordance with the Certificate of Designations of the Preferred Stock. The conversion right is subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments and customary provisions related to partial dividend periods. As of June 30, 2022, each share of Preferred Stock would have been convertible into 1.000208 shares of Common Stock, with such assumed conversion rate scheduled to return to 1.00 upon payment of accrued dividends on June 30, 2023.
As of June 30, 2022, no shares of Preferred Stock have been converted into Common Stock.
The holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to participate in all dividends declared on the Common Stock on an as-converted basis and are also entitled to a cumulative dividend at the rate of 7.5% per annum, payable annually in arrears and subject to increase under certain circumstances. In addition, such holders are entitled to request, and the Company will take all actions reasonably necessary to pay, a one-time dividend ("Special Dividend") equal to the highest dividend that the Company's Board determines can be paid at the applicable time (or a lesser amount agreed upon by the holders), subject to additional conditions and limitations set forth in a Stockholders Agreement entered into by the Company and the holders on March 10, 2021 (the "Stockholders Agreement"). As set forth in the Stockholders Agreement, the Company may be obligated to obtain debt financing in order to effectuate the Special Dividend.
2019 Issuance and Sale of Common Stock and Warrants
On June 23, 2019, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with CVI, pursuant to which CVI agreed to purchase (i) 2,728,513 shares of Common Stock (the "Initial Shares"), at a price of $7.33 per share and (ii) Series A Warrants, Series B-1 Warrants, Series B-2 Warrants and Series C Warrants, for aggregate gross proceeds of $20.0 million (the "Private Placement"). The Private Placement closed on June 26, 2019 (the "CVI Closing Date"). The Series B-1 Warrants and Series B-2 Warrants expired in 2020.
The Series C Warrants were exercised on October 10, 2019. As a result of this exercise, the Company issued 2,728,513 shares of Common Stock to CVI on October 14, 2019. In addition, the number of shares issuable under the Company's Series A Warrants was increased by 2,728,513.
The Series A Warrants are exercisable by the holders for a period of five years from the CVI Closing Date and are currently exercisable into 5,457,026 shares of Common Stock. The Series A Warrants may be exercised for cash or through a net settlement feature under certain circumstances.
The exercise price for the Series A Warrants is subject to anti-dilution adjustment in certain circumstances, including upon certain issuances of capital stock. Upon the issuance of the Preferred Stock, the Company adjusted the exercise price of the Series A Warrants from $12.00 to $2.4719 per share, the closing price of the Transactions.
CVI will not have the right to exercise any warrant that would result in CVI beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Stock after giving effect to such exercise. CVI has the right, in its discretion, to raise this threshold up to 9.99% with 60 days' notice to the Company. In addition, if and to the extent the exercise of any warrants would, together with the issuances of the Initial Shares and the shares issued pursuant to the exercise of any other warrants, result in the issuance of 20.0% or more of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company on the CVI Closing Date, the Company intends to, in lieu of issuing such shares, settle the obligation to issue such shares in cash.
The estimated fair value of the Series A Warrants as of June 30, 2022 was $3.5 million. Refer to Footnote 6, Fair Value Measurements, for information on the Level 3 inputs utilized for the determination of the fair value of the warrants. 5.Debt
Revolving Credit Agreement
On May 5, 2021, the Company entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the "Revolving Credit Agreement") among the Company, as borrower, certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors, Bank of America N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the "Agent"), and the lenders from time to time party thereto.
The Revolving Credit Agreement had an original borrowing capacity equal to $25.0 million and bore interest on borrowings at a Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) that was based on LIBOR. The Company may also request the issuance of letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Agreement in an aggregate amount up to $5.0 million, which reduces the amount of available borrowings by the amount of such issued and outstanding letters of credit. The facility has a maturity of three years from the closing date of the agreement.
On February 25, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment (the "Amendment") to the Revolving Credit Agreement to expand its aggregate borrowing capacity from $25.0 million to $40.0 million. The Amendment also replaced the Eurodollar Rate with a SOFR-based interest rate and modified the Applicable Rate definition in the Revolving Credit Agreement to increase the Applicable Rate payable on SOFR-based loans to 2.50% until the date a compliance certificate is received for the quarter ending March 31, 2023, with such Applicable Rate thereafter reducing to 2.25%.
The Amendment also modified certain financial covenants under the Revolving Credit Agreement. As amended, the Revolving Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain:
•minimum Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) of not less than $20.0 million for the most recently ended four fiscal quarter period, tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ending on or before December 31, 2022;
•a minimum Consolidated Asset Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.5 to 1.0, tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ending on or before December 31, 2022; and
•a minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.25 to 1.0 for the most recently ended four fiscal quarter period, tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ending on or after March 31, 2023.
Additionally, the Revolving Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants that limit the Company's ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness or liens, make investments and loans, enter into mergers and acquisitions, make or declare dividends and other payments, enter into certain contracts, sell assets and engage in transactions with affiliates. The Revolving Credit Agreement is also subject to customary events of default, including a change in control. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Agent or the Required Lenders may accelerate any amounts outstanding and terminate lender commitments. The Company is in compliance with the covenants under the amended Revolving Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2022.
The Revolving Credit Agreement is guaranteed by the Company and its domestic subsidiaries (other than Excluded Subsidiaries (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement)) and is secured by a first lien security interest in substantially all assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries (other than Excluded Subsidiaries), subject to certain customary exclusions.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $16.0 million, and issued and outstanding letters of credit of $3.3 million, under the amended Revolving Credit Agreement, with remaining borrowing capacity of $20.7 million.
Senior Secured Convertible Notes and Financing Derivatives
During 2018, the Company entered into certain agreements with funds affiliated with or managed by Starboard Value LP (collectively, "Starboard"), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to Starboard a total of $204.0 million in Notes, as well as warrants to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock. The warrants were exercised in full by Starboard in 2019.
The Notes contained, among other features, an interest rate reset feature which the Company determined represented an embedded derivative that must be bifurcated and accounted for separately from the Notes. This feature reset the interest rate on the Notes based on the trading price of the Company's Common Stock.
Interest on the Notes was payable on a quarterly basis in arrears, at the option of the Company, in cash, or, subject to certain conditions, through the issuance by the Company of additional shares of Common Stock ("PIK Interest Shares"). On January 25, 2021, the Company paid quarterly accrued interest of $6.1 million through the issuance of 2,802,454 PIK Interest Shares.
In connection with the Transactions described in Footnote 4, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity, the Company used cash proceeds of $204.0 million from the issuance of shares of its Preferred Stock to extinguish the Notes and related financing derivatives on March 10, 2021. The Company also issued 3,150,000 additional shares to Starboard (the "Conversion Shares"), as additional creditor consideration, which were valued at $9.6 million. Lastly, the Company paid interest accrued of $4.7 million for the period from January 1, 2021 to March 10, 2021 through the issuance of 1,363,327 PIK Interest Shares. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of the Notes of $9.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Secured Term Note
During 2019, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Rentrak B.V., entered into an agreement with several third parties for the Secured Term Note in exchange for gross proceeds of $13.0 million.
The Secured Term Note included a redemption feature which, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental transactions, would require the Company to redeem the Secured Term Note in full, plus accrued interest, and remit a prepayment premium equal to the remaining contractual interest cash flows (the "interest make-whole redemption"). The Company determined this feature represented an embedded derivative that must be bifurcated and accounted for separately from the Secured Term Note.
In connection with the Transactions described in Footnote 4, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity, the Company used restricted cash from its balance sheet to extinguish the Secured Term Note and interest make-whole redemption on March 10, 2021, of which $13.0 million and $1.0 million were for principal repayments and settlement of the interest make-whole redemption, respectively. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of the Secured Term Note of $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

The current and non-current portions of the contingent consideration liability are classified within other current and non-current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The current portion of the contingent consideration liability was $3.6 million and $1.0 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The non-current portion of the contingent consideration liability was $4.4 million and $4.6 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
(3) The fair value of this liability is derived from a technique which utilizes inputs, certain of which are significant and unobservable, that result in classification as a Level 3 fair value measurement. Warrants liability includes only the Series A warrants as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
The elimination of the option pricing model used to value the contingent consideration liability reflected a change in the Company's valuation technique during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

9.Commitments and Contingencies
Contingencies
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings from time to time. The Company establishes reserves for specific legal proceedings when management determines that the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company has also identified certain other legal matters where an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and/or for which no estimate of possible losses can be made. In these cases, the Company does not establish a reserve until it can reasonably estimate the loss. Legal fees related to contingencies are expensed as incurred. The outcomes of legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable, subject to significant uncertainties, and could be material to the Company's operating results and cash flows for a particular period.
Current Matters
The Company is, and may become, a party to a variety of legal proceedings from time to time that arise in the normal course of the Company's business. While the results of such legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that, based on current knowledge, the final outcome of any such current pending matters will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Regardless of the outcome, legal proceedings can have an adverse effect on the Company because of defense costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Indemnification
The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of the Company's directors and certain officers, and the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation requires it to indemnify each of its officers and directors, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Company. The Company has paid and may in the future pay legal counsel fees incurred by current and former directors and officers who are involved in legal proceedings that require indemnification.
Similarly, certain of the Company's commercial contracts require it to indemnify contract counterparties under specified circumstances, and the Company may incur legal counsel fees and other costs in connection with these obligations.
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 our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or 10-Q. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results and timing of selected events in future periods may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those discussed under Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the "2021 10-K"), under Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 (the "Q1 2022 10-Q"), under Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in this 10-Q and elsewhere in this 10-Q. See also "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" at the beginning of this 10-Q. Overview
We are a global information and analytics company that measures advertising, content, and the consumer audiences of each, across media platforms. We create our products using a global data platform that combines information on digital platforms (connected (Smart) televisions, mobile devices, tablets and computers), television ("TV"), over the top devices ("OTT"), direct to consumer applications, and movie screens with demographics and other descriptive information. We have developed proprietary data science that enables measurement of person-level and household-level audiences, removing duplicated viewing across devices and over time. This combination of data and methods enables a common standard for buyers and sellers to transact on advertising. This helps companies across the media ecosystem better understand and monetize their audiences and develop marketing plans, content and products to more efficiently and effectively reach those audiences. Our ability to unify behavioral and other descriptive data enables us to provide audience ratings, advertising verification, and granular consumer segments that describe hundreds of millions of consumers. Our customers include digital publishers, television networks, movie studios, content owners, brand advertisers, agencies and technology providers.
The information we analyze crosses geographies, types of content and activities, including websites, mobile and OTT applications ("apps"), video games, television and movie programming, electronic commerce ("e-commerce") and advertising.

Revenues
Our products and services are organized around solution groups that address customer needs. Accordingly, we evaluate revenue around two solution groups:
•Digital Ad Solutions provide measurement of the behavior and characteristics of audiences across digital platforms, including computers, tablets, mobile and other connected devices. This solution group also includes custom offerings that provide end-to-end solutions for planning, optimization and evaluation of advertising campaigns and brand protection across digital platforms, including transactional outcome-based measurement driven by our Activation and CCR products.
•Cross Platform Solutions provide measurement of content and advertising audiences across local, national and addressable television, including consumption through connected (Smart) televisions, and are designed to help customers find the most relevant viewing audience whether that viewing is linear, non-linear, online or on-demand. This solution group also includes custom offerings that provide end-to-end solutions for planning, optimization and evaluation of advertising campaigns across platforms. In addition, this solution group includes products that measure movie viewership and box office results by capturing movie ticket sales in real time or near real time and includes box office analytics, trend analysis and insights for movie studios and movie theater operators worldwide.
We categorize our revenue along these two solution groups; however, our cost structure is tracked at the corporate level and not by our solution groups. These costs include, but are not limited to, employee costs, purchased data, operational overhead, data storage and technology that supports multiple solution groups.

General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of employee costs for salaries, benefits, stock-based compensation and other related costs, and related expenses for executive management, finance, human capital, legal and other administrative functions, as well as professional fees, overhead, including allocated overhead, which is comprised of lease expense and other facilities-related costs, depreciation expense related to general purpose equipment and software, amortization of cloud-computing implementation costs, changes in the fair value of our contingent consideration liability, Board of Directors compensation and expenses incurred for other general corporate purposes.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

Employee costs increased primarily due to severance expense related to the retirement of our former Chief Executive Officer ("CEO").
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

Employee costs increased primarily due to severance expense related to the retirement of our former CEO. Professional fees increased primarily due to a reclassification of insurance costs from other expenses to better reflect the nature of services provided. Other expense increased primarily due to a $2.4 million loss resulting from the change in fair value of the contingent consideration recognized as part of the business combination described in Footnote 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. This increase was partially offset by the reclassification of insurance costs to professional fees. Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net represents income and expenses incurred that are generally not recurring in nature or are not part of our regular operations. The following is a summary of other income (expense), net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended June 30, | | Six Months Ended June 30, | |
(In thousands) | 2022 | | 2021 | | 2022 | | 2021 | |
Change in fair value of warrants liability | $ | 4,560 | | | $ | (6,519) | | | $ | 6,995 | | | $ | (16,520) | | |
Change in fair value of financing derivatives | — | | | — | | | — | | | 1,800 | | |

Total other income (expense), net | $ | 4,557 | | | $ | (6,508) | | | $ | 6,990 | | | $ | (14,782) | | |
The change in other income (expense), net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 was largely driven by changes in the fair value of our warrants liability. The gain on the warrants liability for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to a decrease in the trading price of our Common Stock during the relevant periods. The loss on the warrants liability for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was due primarily to the exercise price adjustment described in Footnote 4, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity, and an increase in the trading price of our Common Stock during the relevant periods. Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net consists of interest income and interest expense. Interest income primarily consists of interest earned from our cash and cash equivalent balances. Interest expense relates to interest on our senior secured convertible notes (the "Notes"), foreign secured promissory note (the "Secured Term Note"), our senior secured revolving credit agreement (the "Revolving Credit Agreement"), our sale-leaseback agreement, and our finance leases.
We incurred interest expense, net of $0.2 million and $0.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $0.4 million and $7.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 was primarily due to the extinguishment of the Notes and the Secured Term Note in March 2021, as described in Footnote 5, Debt. Gain (Loss) From Foreign Currency Transactions
Our foreign currency transactions are recorded as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate between the transactional currency and the functional currency of foreign subsidiary transactions. Our international currency exposures that relate to the translation to U.S. Dollars are in a net liability position and our international currency exposures that relate to the translation from U.S. Dollars are in a net asset position.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the gain (loss) from foreign currency transactions was $2.5 million and $(0.4) million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the gain from foreign currency transactions was $2.9 million and $0.7 million, respectively. The gain during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily driven by fluctuations between the Chilean Peso, Euro and U.S. Dollar exchange rates.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
Loss on extinguishment of debt represents the difference between the carrying value of our debt instruments and any consideration paid to our creditors in the form of cash or shares of our Common Stock on the extinguishment date.
In March 2021, we recorded a $9.6 million loss on debt extinguishment related to the payoff of the Notes and the Secured Term Note. The primary drivers of the extinguishment loss were the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and issuance discounts, the issuance of
additional shares of Common Stock in connection with the extinguishment, and the derecognition of the interest rate reset derivative liability on the Notes. These components are described in Footnote 5, Debt. Income Tax Provision
A valuation allowance has been established against our net U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets and certain foreign deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carryforwards. As a result, our income tax position is primarily related to foreign tax activity and U.S. deferred taxes for tax deductible goodwill and other indefinite-lived liabilities.
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded income tax provisions of $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 14.7% and 2.3%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded income tax provisions of $2.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 16.5% and 2.7%, respectively. These effective tax rates differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the effects of certain permanent items, foreign tax rate differences, and increases in the valuation allowance against our domestic deferred tax assets. The increase in the income tax provision during 2022 as compared to 2021 was primarily due to an increase in estimated foreign tax expense in 2022.

Overview
Our principal uses of cash consist of cash paid for data, payroll and other operating expenses, including expenses incurred in prior periods; payments related to investments in equipment, primarily to support our consumer panels and technical infrastructure required to deliver our products and services and support our customers; service of our debt and lease facilities; and dividend payment obligations with respect to our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock").
As of June 30, 2022, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash totaling $20.1 million (including $0.4 million in restricted cash), cash flows from our operations, and $20.7 million available to us under our Revolving Credit Agreement, as described below.
On March 10, 2021, we entered into separate Securities Purchase Agreements with each of Charter Communications Holding Company, LLC ("Charter"), Qurate Retail, Inc. ("Qurate") and Pine Investor, LLC ("Pine") (the "Transactions"). At the closing of the Transactions, we issued 82,527,609 shares of Preferred Stock in exchange for gross cash proceeds of $204.0 million.
The proceeds from the Transactions were used to repay the Notes issued to Starboard. For additional information on the Transactions and the extinguishment of the Notes, refer to Footnote 4, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity and Footnote 5, Debt. On May 5, 2021, we entered into the Revolving Credit Agreement, which was subsequently amended in February 2022. The Revolving Credit Agreement provides a borrowing capacity equal to $40.0 million. During 2021, we borrowed $16.0 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement. In addition to these borrowings, we have issued and outstanding letters of credit totaling $3.3 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement, leaving a remaining borrowing capacity of $20.7 million as of June 30, 2022.
On June 30, 2022, we made cash dividend payments totaling $15.5 million to the holders of the Preferred Stock, representing dividends accrued for the period from June 30, 2021 through June 29, 2022. The next scheduled dividend payment date for the Preferred Stock is June 30, 2023.
Pandemic Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic and related government mandates and restrictions have had a significant impact on the media, advertising and entertainment industries in which we operate. To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has had some impact on our business, including with respect to the execution of new and renewal contracts, the impact of closed movie theaters on our customers, customer payment delays and requests to modify contractual payment terms. These conditions have negatively impacted our revenue and cash flows, particularly in our movies business, and could continue to have an impact in future periods.
It is possible that long-term changes in consumer behavior will impact our customers' operations, and thus their demand for our services and ability to pay, even after the spread of COVID-19 has been contained and businesses are permitted to resume normal operations. While we have taken actions to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, control costs and improve our working capital balance, these steps may not be successful or adequate if customer demand or cash collection efforts are further impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic or other factors.
Preferred Stock
On March 10, 2021, in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreements described above, we issued 82,527,609 shares of Preferred Stock in exchange for gross cash proceeds of $204.0 million. Net proceeds from the Transactions totaled $187.9 million after deducting issuance costs. Shares of Preferred Stock are convertible into Common Stock as described in Footnote 4, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity. As of June 30, 2022, each share of Preferred Stock would have been convertible into 1.000208 shares of Common Stock, with such assumed conversion rate scheduled to return to 1.00 upon payment of accrued dividends on June 30, 2023. The holders of Preferred Stock are entitled to participate in all dividends declared on the Common Stock on an as-converted basis and are also entitled to a cumulative dividend at the rate of 7.5% per annum, payable annually in arrears and subject to increase under certain specified circumstances. In addition, such holders are entitled to request, and we must take all actions reasonably necessary to pay, a one-time special dividend on the Preferred Stock equal to the highest dividend that our Board determines can be paid at the applicable time (or a lesser amount agreed by the holders), subject to additional conditions and limitations described in Footnote 4, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity. We may be obligated to obtain debt financing in order to effectuate the special dividend, which could significantly impact our financial position and liquidity depending on the timing and scope of the dividend payment and related financing. Moreover, this obligation could lead us to refinance or terminate the Revolving Credit Agreement prior to its maturity, due to its restrictions on our ability to incur additional debt. Revolving Credit Agreement
On May 5, 2021, we entered into the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Agreement had an original borrowing capacity equal to $25.0 million and bore interest on borrowings at a Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) that was based on LIBOR. We may also request the issuance of letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Agreement in an aggregate amount up to $5.0 million, which reduces the amount of available borrowings by the amount of such issued and outstanding letters of credit. The facility has a maturity of three years from the closing date of the agreement.
On February 25, 2022, we entered into an amendment (the "Amendment") to the Revolving Credit Agreement to expand our aggregate borrowing capacity from $25.0 million to $40.0 million. The Amendment also replaced the Eurodollar Rate with a SOFR-based interest rate and modified the Applicable Rate definition in the Revolving Credit Agreement to increase the Applicable Rate payable on SOFR-based loans to 2.50% until the date a compliance certificate is received for the quarter ending March 31, 2023, with such Applicable Rate thereafter reducing to 2.25%.
The amount we are able to borrow under the Revolving Credit Agreement is subject to compliance with financial covenants, satisfaction of various conditions precedent to borrowing and other provisions of the Revolving Credit Agreement. Notably, the Revolving Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require us to maintain minimum Consolidated EBITDA for periods through December 31, 2022, a minimum Consolidated Asset Coverage Ratio for periods ending March 31, 2022 through December 31, 2022, and a minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for periods after December 31, 2022 (each term as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement). As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with our covenants under the Revolving Credit Agreement, and based on our current plans, we do not anticipate a breach of these covenants that would result in an event of default under the Revolving Credit Agreement.
As of June 30, 2022, we had outstanding borrowings of $16.0 million and outstanding letters of credit totaling $3.3 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement, leaving a remaining borrowing capacity of $20.7 million. The borrowed funds were used to reduce our accounts payable balances, primarily related to expenses incurred in prior periods, and support our working capital position. While we continue to take steps to reduce our outstanding trade payables and improve our working capital position, our liquidity and operations could be negatively affected if we are unable to generate sufficient cash from operations to satisfy outstanding payables and meet our other financial obligations as they come due.
For additional information on the Revolving Credit Agreement, refer to Footnote 5, Debt. Sale of Common Stock and Warrants
On June 23, 2019, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with CVI pursuant to which we sold to CVI for aggregate gross proceeds of $20.0 million (i) 2,728,513 shares of Common Stock and (ii) Series A Warrants, Series B-1 Warrants, Series B-2 Warrants and Series C Warrants to initially purchase up to 11,654,033 shares of Common Stock (the "Private Placement"). On October 14, 2019, we issued 2,728,513 shares of Common Stock to CVI upon exercise by CVI of the Series C Warrants. As a result of this exercise, the number of shares issuable under our Series A Warrants was increased by 2,728,513. On January 29, 2020, the Series B-1 Warrants expired unexercised. On August 3, 2020, the Series B-2 Warrants expired unexercised.
For additional information on the Private Placement and the adjustment to the exercise price of our Series A Warrants in connection with the Transactions (which adjustment could reduce the cash proceeds we receive upon exercise of the Series A Warrants), refer to Footnote 4, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity. Operating Activities
Our primary source of cash provided by operating activities is revenues generated from sales of our products and services. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities include personnel costs and costs related to data and infrastructure used to develop and maintain our products and services.
Cash provided by operating activities is calculated by adjusting our net loss for changes in working capital, as well as by excluding non-cash items such as: depreciation, non-cash operating lease expense, amortization expense of finance leases and intangible assets, stock-based compensation, deferred tax provision, change in the fair value of contingent consideration, financing derivatives and warrants liability, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash interest expense on the Notes, accretion of debt discount, and amortization of deferred financing costs.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $24.2 million, compared to $10.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to a net increase in cash generated from operating assets and liabilities of $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The higher amount of cash generated from operating assets and liabilities in 2022 is primarily reflective of higher revenues, shorter billing cycles, and improved cash collections during 2022 as compared to 2021. These increases were partially offset by higher amounts paid to reduce our outstanding accounts payable and accrued expense balances during 2022 as compared to 2021.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities primarily consists of payments related to capitalized internal-use software costs, purchases of computer and network equipment to support our technical infrastructure, and furniture and equipment. The extent of these investments will be affected by our ability to expand relationships with existing customers, grow our customer base and introduce new digital formats, as well as constraints on cash expenditures due to our financial position and the current economic environment.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $8.3 million compared to $7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $17.0 million compared to $35.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The significant decrease in cash used for financing activities was due to repayment of our Notes and the Secured Term Note, which outflows were partially offset by cash proceeds received from the issuance of the Preferred Stock (net of related transaction costs), during 2021. These decreases were partially offset by a net increase of $10.8 million in cash dividends paid to holders of the Preferred Stock in 2022, reflecting a full annual dividend period, as compared to 2021, which included only a partial dividend period.
Contractual Payment Obligations
We have certain long-term contractual arrangements that have fixed and determinable payment obligations including purchase obligations with MVPDs and connected (Smart) television providers, operating and financing leases, and data storage and bandwidth arrangements.
We have data licensing agreements with a number of MVPDs and other providers for set-top box and connected (Smart) television data. These agreements have remaining terms from one to nine years. As of June 30, 2022, the total fixed payment obligations related to set-top box and connected (Smart) television data agreements are $310.2 million and $11.2 million, respectively. In addition, we expect to make variable payments related to a set-top box data agreement totaling an estimated $15.3 million over the next two years.
We have both operating and financing leases related to corporate office space and equipment. Our leases have remaining terms from one to six years. As of June 30, 2022, the total fixed payment obligation related to these agreements is $55.8 million.
We have an agreement for cloud-based data storage and bandwidth to help process and store our data. The remaining term for this agreement is two years. As of June 30, 2022, the total fixed payment obligation related to this agreement is $14.7 million.
Future Capital Requirements
Our ability to generate cash is subject to our performance, general economic conditions, industry trends and other factors, including the timing of cash collections from our customers, data costs and other trade payables, service of our debt and lease facilities and dividend payment obligations, and expenses from ongoing compliance efforts and legal matters. To the extent that our existing cash, cash equivalents and operating cash flow, together with savings from repayment of the Notes and Secured Term Note, cost-reduction initiatives undertaken by our management and borrowing capacity under our Revolving Credit Agreement, are insufficient to fund our future activities and requirements, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing. We may also be required to raise additional funds in order to pay a special dividend to holders of our Preferred Stock, as described above. Our history of net losses, as well as disruption and volatility in global capital and credit markets, could impact our ability to access capital resources on terms acceptable to us or allowable under applicable financing arrangements, or at all. If we issue additional equity securities in order to raise additional funds, pay dividends or for other purposes, further dilution to existing stockholders may occur.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Refer to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in our 2021 10-K for detailed information about the estimates and assumptions that we consider to be the most critical to an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations. These estimates and assumptions involve significant judgments and uncertainties, and actual results in these areas could differ from our estimates.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. We have outstanding warrants that are subject to market risk. We also have interest rate risk for amounts outstanding under our Revolving Credit Agreement, and we have foreign currency exchange rate risk from our global operations.
Warrants liability financial instrument risk
As a result of having $3.5 million in liability related to outstanding warrants as of June 30, 2022, which warrants are exercisable for shares of Common Stock under certain conditions, we are subject to market risk. The value of the warrants is impacted by changes in the market price of our Common Stock.
As of June 30, 2022, a 10% increase in the market price of our Common Stock would result in a $0.7 million increase in the fair value of the Series A Warrants, while a 10% decrease in the market price of our Common Stock would result in a $0.7 million decrease in the fair value of the Series A Warrants.
For further information on our outstanding warrants, refer to Footnote 4, Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity. Interest rate and foreign currency risks
For discussion of the market risk associated with our interest rate and foreign currency risks, refer to Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" within the 2021 10-K.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2022. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of June 30, 2022, these disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance 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 to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d), management is required to evaluate, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, any changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during each fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitation on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, any system of internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business, but we cannot assure that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting in future periods.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Refer to Footnote 9, Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference. An investment in our Common Stock involves a substantial risk of loss. In addition to the information in this report, you should carefully consider the risks discussed in Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our 2021 10-K before you decide whether to invest in our stock. The risks identified in our 2021 10-K could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. In that case, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment. The risks described in our 2021 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results, and may result in the loss of part or all of your investment. We face risks related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, including from the resulting geopolitical effects.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has resulted in worldwide geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty. The United States and others have imposed financial and economic sanctions on certain industry sectors and parties in and associated with Russia and Belarus, and additional sanctions continue to be proposed and adopted. Compliance with the evolving sanctions and export controls regime is complex and may lead to increased regulatory scrutiny, particularly with respect to data collection and data transfer in affected regions. The conflict may also heighten risks relating to employee safety, cybersecurity incidents or disruptions to our information systems, operational costs, reputational damage and potential retaliatory action by the Russian government or other actors. As the situation develops and the regulatory environment continues to evolve, we may adjust our business practices as required or appropriate to respond to the changes. While we do not currently expect the conflict to have a direct material impact on our business, it is not possible to predict the broader consequences, which could include additional sanctions, embargoes, regional instability, geopolitical shifts and adverse effects on the global economy or on our business and operations, as well as those of our customers, partners and third-party service providers. Further, the effects of the ongoing conflict could serve to heighten many of the known risks we described in Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of our 2021 10-K. Our outstanding securities, the stock or securities that we may become obligated to issue under existing or future agreements, and certain provisions of those securities, may cause immediate and substantial dilution to our existing stockholders.
Our existing stockholders have and may continue to experience substantial dilution as a result of our obligations to issue shares of Common Stock. As of June 30, 2022, our Preferred Stock was convertible into an aggregate of 82,544,804 shares of Common Stock at the election of the holders. Furthermore, we have reserved 5,457,026 shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to our Series A Warrants. We have also issued 8,066,876 shares of Common Stock for distribution to the selling stockholders of Shareablee (which we acquired in December 2021). In addition, we may elect to pay any deferred consideration due to the Shareablee sellers in 2022, 2023 and 2024 in shares of Common Stock.
As of June 30, 2022, 1,530,488 shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding stock options under our equity incentive plans (including stock option awards we assumed in the Shareablee acquisition), 3,596,950 shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding restricted stock unit awards under our equity incentive plans and arrangements (including assumed Shareablee awards and an employment inducement award we granted in 2021), and an aggregate of 9,389,657 shares of Common Stock were available for future equity awards under our 2018 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan ("2018 Plan") and acquired Shareablee plan.
The issuance of shares of Common Stock (i) upon the conversion of our Preferred Stock, (ii) upon the exercise of warrants, (iii) as deferred consideration to the Shareablee sellers, (iv) pursuant to outstanding and future equity awards, or (v) upon the conversion of other existing or future convertible securities, may result in substantial dilution to each of our stockholders by reducing that stockholder's percentage ownership of our outstanding Common Stock.
