2. Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of presentation
The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on February 29, 2024. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024, or for any other period.
Basis of consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and the accounts of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31. References to “fiscal 2024,” for example, refer to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
Use of estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
Significant estimates and assumptions made by management in these consolidated financial statements include:
7
Because of the use of estimates inherent in financial reporting process actual results could differ and the differences could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280)
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires all public entities, including those public entities that have a single reportable segment to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the individual or the name of the group or committee identified as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). ASU 2023-07 is effective for the Company’s fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently assessing the impact this standard will have on the Company’s but does not expect it to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740)
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 requires all entities to provide more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The amendments in this Update also eliminate requirements such as (1) the disclosure of the nature and estimate of the range of the reasonably possible change in the unrecognized tax benefits balance in the next 12 months, (2) or making a statement that an estimate of the range cannot be made, and (3) the disclosure of the cumulative amount of each type of temporary difference when a deferred tax liability is not recognized because of the exceptions to comprehensive recognition of deferred taxes related to subsidiaries and corporate joint ventures. Lastly, the amendments in this Update replace the term ‘public entity’ as currently used in Topic 740 with the term ‘public business entity’. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company’s fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is currently assessing the impact this standard will have on the Company but does not expect it to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Other accounting standard updates effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 31, 2023 are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Segments
The Company’s CODM is the chief executive officer. The Company’s chief executive officer reviews the financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of making operating decisions, allocating resources, and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it operates as a single operating and reportable segment.
Revenue recognition
Subscription solutions
Subscription solutions revenue consists primarily of platform subscription fees from all plans and recurring professional services. Subscription solutions are charged monthly, quarterly, or annually for the Company’s customers to sell their products and process transactions on the Company’s platform. Subscription solutions are generally charged per online store and are based on the store’s subscription plan. Monthly subscription fees for enterprise plans are adjusted if a customer’s gross merchandise volume (“GMV”) or orders processed are above specified plan thresholds on a trailing twelve-month basis. For most subscription solutions arrangements, excluding enterprise subscription plans, the Company has determined the Company meets the variable consideration allocation exception and, therefore, recognizes fixed monthly fees or a pro-rata portion of quarterly or annual fees and any transaction fees as revenue in the month they are earned. During fiscal year 2023, the Company adopted a new pricing structure that provided a discount to the contractual price for customers who pay quarterly or annually. Prior to this date, enterprise subscription plans included an upfront promotional period in order to incentivize the customer to enter into a subscription arrangement. In both of these scenarios, the total subscription fee is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract. In determining the amount of revenue to be recognized, the Company determines whether collection of the entire transaction price is probable. Only amounts deemed probable are recognized as revenue. Key factors in this determination are historical contract termination rates and general economic factors.
Subscription revenue includes revenue from Feedonomics. Feedonomics provides a technology platform and related services that enables online retailers and other sellers to automate online listings of the sellers’ information across multiple third-party marketplaces and advertisers (such as Amazon, Google, Facebook, etc.). The Company provides these services under service contracts which are generally one year or less, and in many cases month-to-month. These service types may be sold stand-alone or as part of a
8
multi-service bundle (e.g. both marketplaces and advertising). Services are performed and fees are determined based on monthly usage and are billed in arrears.
Professional services, which primarily consist of education packages, launch services, solutions architecting, implementation consulting, and catalog transfer services, are generally billed and recognized as revenue when delivered.
Contracts with the Company’s retail customers are generally month-to-month, while contracts with the Company’s enterprise customers generally range from to
Partner and services
The Company’s partner and services revenue includes revenue share, partner technology integrations, and marketing services provided to partners. Revenue share relates to fees earned by the Company’s partners from customers using the Company’s platform, where the Company has an arrangement with such partners to share such fees as they occur. Revenue share is recognized at the time the earning activity is complete, which is generally monthly and variable based on customer usage on the platform. Revenue for partner technology integrations is recorded on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract commencing when the integration has been completed. Revenue for marketing services are recognized either at the time the earning activity is complete, or ratably over the length of the contract, depending on the nature of the obligations in the contract. Payments received in advance of services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized when the obligation is completed.
The Company also derives revenue from the sales of website themes and applications upon delivery.
The Company recognizes partner revenue share on a net basis as the Company has determined that the Company is the agent in the Company’s arrangements with third-party application providers. All other revenue is recognized on a gross basis, as the Company has determined the Company is the principal in these arrangements.
Contracts with multiple performance obligations
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment.
The Company’s subscription contracts are generally comprised of a single performance obligation to provide access to the Company’s platform, but can include additional performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations where the contracted price differs from the standalone selling price (“SSP”) for any distinct good or service, the Company may be required to allocate the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using the Company’s best estimate of SSP. Judgment is required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The primary method used to estimate SSP is the observable prices of products or services sold or priced separately in comparable circumstances to similar customers.
Contracts with the Company’s technology solution partners may include multiple performance obligations, which can include integrations and marketing activities. In determining whether integration services are distinct from hosting services the Company considers various factors. These considerations include the level of integration, interdependency, and interrelation between the implementation and hosting services. The Company has concluded that the integration services included in contracts with hosting obligations are not distinct. As a result, the Company defers any arrangement fees for integration services and recognize such amounts over the life of the hosting obligation commencing when the integration has been completed. To determine if marketing activities are distinct, the Company considers the nature of the promise in the contract, the timing of payment, and the partner expectations. Additional consideration for some partner contracts varies based on the level of customer activity on the platform. Certain agreements contain minimum guarantees of revenue share. These contracts are evaluated to determine if the guaranteed minimum is substantive. If the minimum is deemed substantive, revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the agreement. For most of the Company’s contracts, the Company has determined the variable consideration allocation exception has been met and therefore variable fees are recognized in the period they are earned.
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections can result in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, contract assets, and deferred revenue.
Contract assets
Billings scheduled to occur after the performance obligation has been satisfied and revenue recognition has occurred result in contract assets. Contract assets are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at the end of each reporting period in Prepaid expenses and other assets, net. Typically, contract assets arise from agreements that have tiered billings over the contract life,
9
promotional billing periods, and partner and services revenue agreements that include substantive minimums. Net contract assets were $
The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales of products and services to customers and partners. The Company assesses the collectability of outstanding contract assets on an ongoing basis and maintain a reserve which is included in the allowance for credit losses for contract assets deemed uncollectible. The Company analyzes the contract asset portfolio for significant risks by considering historical collection experience and forecasting future collectability to determine what will ultimately be collected from its customers and partners, delinquency level and customer type have been identified as the primary specific risk affecting the Company’s contract assets, and the estimate for losses is analyzed annually and adjusted as necessary. The Company has provisioned $
Deferred revenue
Deferred revenue primarily consists of amounts that have been received from customers in advance of the performance obligation being satisfied. The Company recognizes revenue from deferred revenue when the services are performed and the corresponding revenue recognition criteria are met. Amounts recognized from deferred revenue represent primarily revenue from the sale of subscription solutions, integration, and marketing services. The Company recognized $

Cost of revenue
Cost of revenue consists primarily of personnel-related costs, including: stock-based compensation expenses for customer support and professional services personnel; costs of maintaining and securing infrastructure and platform; allocation of overhead costs and credit card processing fees; and amortization expense associated with capitalized internal-use software.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are stated at net realizable value and include both billed and unbilled receivables. Accounts receivable are net of an allowance for credit losses, are not collateralized, and do not bear interest. Payment terms range from
The Company assesses the collectability of outstanding accounts receivable on an ongoing basis and maintains an allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable deemed uncollectible. The Company analyzes grouped customers by similar risk profiles, along with the invoiced accounts receivable portfolio and unbilled accounts receivable for significant risks, historical collection activity, and an estimate of future collectability to determine the amount that the Company will ultimately collect. This estimate is analyzed annually and adjusted as necessary.
Identified risks pertaining to the Company’s invoiced accounts receivable include the delinquency level and customer type. The estimate of the amount of accounts receivable that may not be collected is based on aging of the accounts receivable balances, historical customer delinquency, and assessment of the overall portfolio and general economic conditions.

The Company grants PSUs which provide for shares of common stock to be earned based on the Company's total stockholder return compared to the Russell 2000 index, and referred to as market-based awards. The Company values these market-based awards on the grant date using the Monte Carlo simulation model. The determination of fair value is affected by the Company's stock price and a number of assumptions including the expected volatility and the risk-free interest rate. The Company assumes no dividend yield and recognizes stock-based compensation expense ratably from grant date over the performance period of the award. The market-based awards will cliff-vest at the end of the
The Company also grants PSUs which provide for shares of common stock to be earned based on its attainment of the Company's adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”) and revenue relative to a target specified in the applicable agreement, and are referred to as Company performance-based awards. The Company values these awards at the closing market price on the date of grant. The vesting of Company performance-based awards is conditioned upon the achievement of certain targets and will vest in
3. Revenue recognition and deferred costs
Revenue recognition
The Company’s source of revenue consists of subscription solutions fees and partner and services fees. These services allow customers to access the Company’s hosted software over the contract period. The customer is not allowed to take possession of the software or transfer the software. The Company’s revenue arrangements do not contain general rights of refund in the event of cancellations.

4. Fair value measurements
Financial instruments carried at fair value include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and marketable securities. The fair value of our convertible senior notes is included below for disclosure purposes only.
For assets and liabilities measured at fair value, fair value is the price to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. When determining fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact, and assumptions that market participants would use when pricing asset or liabilities.
The accounting standard for fair value establishes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, the first two of which are considered observable and the last unobservable. The standard requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:
The following table presents information about the Company’s cash equivalents, marketable securities and liabilities that were measured at fair value as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

7. Commitments, contingencies, and leases
Legal proceedings
From time to time, the Company may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. In general, the resolution of a legal matter could prevent the Company from offering its service to others, could be material to the Company’s financial condition or cash flows, or both, or could otherwise adversely affect the Company’s reputation and future operating results.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company makes a provision for a liability relating to legal matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, estimated settlements, legal rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter. The outcomes of legal proceedings and other contingencies are, however, inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties. The Company is not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, if determined adversely to the Company, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Purchase obligations
The Company has contractual commitments for services with third-parties related to hosting and internal software systems. These commitments are non-cancellable and expire within to

Restructuring charges
The Company recognizes employee severance costs when payments are probable and amounts are estimable or when notification occurs, depending on whether the severance costs paid are part of the Company’s general plan. Facilities costs related to contracts or leases without future benefit are recognized at the earlier of the contract termination or the cease-use dates. Additionally, restructuring charges include considerations of various capital alternatives which include asset impairments, professional services, and other costs relating to significant items that are nonrecurring or unusual are recognized as incurred.
In September 2023, the Company commenced a restructuring plan (the “2023 Restructure”) which includes a reduction of the Company’s workforce that is intended to advance the Company’s ongoing commitment to profitable growth. The 2023 Restructuring plan has substantially been completed as of June 30, 2024.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred approximately $

The 2026 Convertible Notes are the Company’s senior, unsecured obligations and accrue interest at a rate of
The Company will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate for the 2026 Convertible Notes is
The Company may not redeem the 2026 Convertible Notes prior to October 7, 2024. The 2026 Convertible Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after October 7, 2024 and on or before the 25th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130 percent of the conversion price on (i) each of at least
If a “fundamental change” (as defined in the indenture for the 2026 Convertible Notes) occurs, then, subject to a limited exception, noteholders may require the Company to repurchase their Notes for cash. The repurchase price will be equal to the principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date.
In accounting for the issuance of the 2026 Convertible Notes, the Company recorded the 2026 Convertible Notes as a liability at face value. The effective interest rate for the 2026 Convertible Notes was

2021 Capped Call Transactions
In connection with the pricing of the 2026 Convertible Notes, the Company used $
The Capped Call Transactions are generally expected to reduce potential dilution to holders of the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of the 2026 Convertible Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Notes upon conversion of the 2026 Convertible Notes in the event that the market price per share of the Company’s common stock is greater than the strike price of the Capped Call Transactions with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap.
The Capped Call Transactions have an initial cap price of approximately $
The Capped Call Transactions do not meet the criteria for separate accounting as a derivative as they are indexed to the Company’s common stock. The premiums paid for the Capped Call Transaction have been included as a net reduction to additional paid-in capital within stockholders’ equity.

10. Stockholders’ equity
2020 Equity incentive plan
In 2020, the Company adopted the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, or “2020 Plan”, under which stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance-based restricted stock units and other cash-based or stock-based awards may be granted to employees, consultants and directors. Shares of common stock that are issued and available for issuance under the 2020 Plan consist of authorized, but unissued or reacquired shares of common stock or any combination thereof. The Company has granted awards of stock options, restricted stock units, and market-based and performance-based restricted stock units under the 2020 Plan.

Expected life in years |
|
The Company estimated its future stock price volatility using a combination of its observed option-implied volatilities and its peer historical volatility calculations. Management believes this is the best estimate of the expected volatility over the expected life of its stock options. The estimated life for the stock options is based on the weighted average of the remaining vesting term and the remaining contractual life of each award. The risk-free interest rate is based on the rate for a U.S. government security with the same estimated life at the time of the option grant. The estimated forfeiture rate applied is based on historical forfeiture rates. The Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore uses an expected dividend yield of zero in the option pricing model.

11. Income taxes
The income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 is based on the estimated annual effective tax rate for fiscal 2024. The Company’s provision for income taxes is based on estimated effective tax rates derived from an estimate of annual consolidated earnings before taxes, adjusted for nondeductible expenses, other permanent items, valuation allowances, and any applicable income tax credits.
The Company’s provision for income taxes reflected an effective tax rate of (
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of
The Company has provided a valuation allowance against most of the Company’s deferred tax assets as it believes the objective and verifiable evidence of the Company’s historical pretax net losses outweighs any positive evidence of forecasted future results. The Company will continue to monitor the positive and negative evidence and will adjust the valuation allowance as sufficient objective positive evidence becomes available.
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $

12. Net loss per share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Because the Company has reported a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, the number of shares used to calculate diluted net loss per share is the same as the number of shares used to calculate basic net loss per share for the period presented because the potentially dilutive shares would have been antidilutive if included in the calculation.

Special note regarding forward-looking statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1993, as amended (“the Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Any statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, predictions, forecasts, objectives, assumptions, or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” and similar words or phrases. These forward-looking statements include statements concerning the following:
Although we believe the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties which are subject to change based on various important factors, some of which are beyond our control. For more information regarding these risks and uncertainties as well as certain additional risks that we face, refer to “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed on February 29, 2024 and “Risk Factors,” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as factors more fully described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
If one or more of the factors affecting the expectations reflected in our forward-looking information and statements proves incorrect, our actual results, performance, or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, forward-looking information and statements. Therefore, we caution the reader not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking information or statements. The effect of these factors is difficult to predict. Factors other than these also could adversely affect our results, and the reader should not consider these factors to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties. New factors emerge from time to time, and management cannot assess the impact of any such factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Any forward-looking statements only speak as of the date of this document, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking information or statements, whether written or oral, to reflect any change, except as required by law. All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.

Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly in “Risk Factors.” See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview
BigCommerce is leading a new era of ecommerce. Our SaaS platform simplifies the creation of online stores by delivering a unique combination of ease-of-use, enterprise functionality, composability and flexibility. We allow merchants to build their ecommerce solution their way with the flexibility to fit their unique business and product offerings. We power both our customers’ branded ecommerce stores and their cross-channel connections to popular online marketplaces, social networks, and offline point of sale systems. Our strategy is to provide the world’s best combination of freedom of choice and flexibility in a multi-tenant SaaS platform. We describe this strategy as “Open SaaS.” As of June 30, 2024 we served 5,961 accounts with at least one unique enterprise plan subscription or an enterprise-level feed management subscription (collectively “enterprise accounts”). These accounts may have more than one Enterprise plan or a combination of Enterprise plans and Essentials plans.
We provide a comprehensive platform for launching and scaling an ecommerce operation, including store design, catalog management, hosting, checkout, order management, reporting, and pre-integration into third-party services like payments, shipping, and accounting. All of our stores run on a single code base and share a global, multi-tenant architecture purpose built for security, high performance, and innovation. Our platform serves stores in a wide variety of sizes, product categories, and purchase types, including B2C and B2B.
We offer access to our platform on a subscription basis. We serve customers with subscription plans tailored to their size and feature needs. For our larger customers, our Enterprise plan offers our full feature set at a subscription price tailored to each business. For SMBs, we offer three retail plans: Standard, Plus, and Pro, priced at $29, $79, and $299 per month (our “Essentials” plans) when pre-paid annually, or $39, $105, and $399 per month (our “Essentials plans”), when paid monthly, respectively. Our Essentials plans include GMV thresholds with programmatic upgrades built in as merchants exceed each plan’s threshold.
Our differentiated Open SaaS technology approach combines the flexibility and customization potential of open source software with the performance, security, usability, and value benefits of multi-tenant SaaS. This combination helps businesses turn digital transformation into competitive advantage. While some software conglomerate providers attempt to lock customers into their proprietary suites, we focus on the configurability and flexibility of our open platform, enabling each business to optimize their ecommerce approach based on their specific needs.
Partners are essential to our open strategy. We believe we possess one of the deepest and broadest ecosystems of integrated technology solutions in the ecommerce industry. We strategically partner with, rather than compete against, the leading providers in adjacent categories, including payments, shipping, point of sale, content management system, customer relationship management, and enterprise resource planning. We focus our research and development investments in our core product to create a best-of-breed ecommerce platform and co-market and co-sell with our strategic technology partners to our mutual prospects and customers. As a result, we earn high-margin revenue share from a subset of our strategic technology partners, which complements the high gross margin of our core ecommerce platform.
Our business has achieved significant growth since our inception. We plan to continue to invest in our “Open SaaS” strategy, building new partnerships and continuing to develop a platform that offers best-of-breed functionality with the cost-effectiveness of multi-tenant SaaS. As we work to develop and deliver this platform for our customers, we will also invest and grow our business by acquiring additional customers to our platform, growing our revenue with existing customers, cross-selling owned and partner solutions to existing customers, expanding our presence in new markets and geographies, and considering targeted acquisitions that can enhance our service to customers.

Key factors affecting our performance
Our operational and financial results have been, and will continue to be, affected by a number of factors that present significant opportunities as well as risks and challenges, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this quarterly report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, particularly in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” The key factors discussed below impacted our 2023 results or are anticipated to impact our future results.
“Go-to-Market” Strategy
BigCommerce was originally founded to serve the needs of small business customers. We have radically improved our product and service capabilities on behalf of the complex needs of midmarket and enterprise businesses, and we have successfully moved our customer base up-market as a result. We plan to continue our focus on enterprise businesses and we describe examples of advancements taken by us below.
We reorganized our business teams and leadership structure to introduce clear and unified end to end ownership of the customer. Sales, customer success, marketing, and our business development teams have congruent and clear targets that unify their efforts around customer success and growth. In the fourth quarter of 2023 we centralized end to end customer success ownership under our Company President. Our Company President now oversees all go-to-market efforts across the business, including the platform product, Feedonomics, and partner and services revenue.
New customer acquisition remains a priority, but it is now balanced with a strong focus on customer retention, satisfaction, and growth. This advancement includes a greater focus on portfolio cross-sell of Feedonomics and partner solutions.
We are well-positioned to reaccelerate revenue growth, and we are continuing to see progress in the six months since initiating many of the advancements discussed above. We delivered our largest sequential growth in enterprise ARR in the last twelve months. For the first half of the year, our net retention rates continue to improve versus the prior year, and we continue to focus on customer success and growth while improving go-to market spending efficiency.
Macroeconomic environment and customer spend
Consumer spending remains resilient across our major markets, though aggregate ecommerce is growing at lower rates than during the pandemic. We are encouraged overall by the underlying consumption signals that we are seeing in our business.
As described above, we are making progress in our go to market transformation. We continue to see longer sales cycle times relative to the pandemic and elevated scrutiny on platform investment spending. We believe sales cycle times and platform investment spending will improve, and we are transforming our go-to-market capabilities to capitalize on that improvement.
Business metrics
We review the following business metrics to measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions. Increases or decreases in our business metrics may not correspond with increases or decreases in our revenue. As an example, some of our business metrics include annual revenue run-rate (“ARR”), subscription annual revenue run-rate (“Subscription ARR”), average revenue per account, lifetime value (“LTV”) to customer acquisition costs (“CAC”) and others are calculated as of the end of the last month of the reporting period.
Annual revenue run-rate
We calculate ARR at the end of each month as the sum of: (1) contractual monthly recurring revenue at the end of the period, which includes platform subscription fees, invoiced growth adjustments, product feed management subscription fees, recurring professional services revenue, and other recurring revenue, multiplied by twelve to prospectively annualize recurring revenue, and (2) the sum of the trailing twelve-month non-recurring and variable revenue, which includes one-time partner integrations, one-time fees, payments revenue share, and any other revenue that is non-recurring and variable.
Subscription annual revenue run-rate
We calculate Subscription ARR at the end of each month as the sum of contractual monthly recurring revenue at the end of the period, which includes platform subscription fees, invoiced growth adjustments, product feed management subscription fees, recurring professional services revenue, and other recurring revenue, multiplied by twelve to prospectively annualize recurring revenue.
25
Average revenue per account
We calculate average revenue per account (“ARPA”) at the end of a period by including customer-billed revenue and an allocation of partner and services revenue, where applicable. We bill customers for subscription solutions and professional services, and we include both in ARPA for the reported period. For example, ARPA as of June 30, 2024, includes all subscription solutions and professional services billed between January 1, 2024, and June 30, 2024. We allocate partner revenue, where applicable, primarily based on each customer’s share of GMV processed through that partner’s solution. Partner revenue that is not directly linked to customer usage of a partner’s solution is allocated based on each customer’s share of total platform GMV. Each account’s partner revenue allocation is calculated by taking the account’s trailing twelve-month partner revenue, then dividing by twelve to create a monthly average to apply to the applicable period in order to normalize ARPA for seasonality.
Enterprise Account metrics
To measure the effectiveness of our ability to execute against our growth strategy, particularly within the mid-market and enterprise lines of business, we calculate ARR attributable to Enterprise Accounts.

Lifetime value to customer acquisition costs
We measure the efficiency of new customer acquisition by comparing the lifetime value of newly-acquired customers to the customer acquisition costs of the associated time period to get an “LTV:CAC ratio.” We calculate LTV as gross profit from new sales during the four quarters of any given year divided by the estimated future subscription churn rate.
Net revenue retention
We use net revenue retention (“NRR”) to evaluate our ability to maintain and expand our revenue with our account base of enterprise customers exceeding the ACV threshold over time. The total billings and allocated partner revenue, where applicable, for the measured period are divided by the total billings and allocated partner revenue for such accounts, corresponding to the period one year prior. An NRR greater than 100 percent implies positive net revenue retention. This methodology includes stores added to or subtracted from an account’s subscription during the previous twelve months. It also includes changes to subscription and partner and services revenue billings, and revenue reductions from stores or accounts that leave the platform during the previous one-year period. Net new accounts added after the previous one-year period are excluded from our NRR calculations. NRR for enterprise accounts was 100 percent and 111 percent for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We update our reported NRR at the end of each fiscal year and do not report quarterly changes in NRR.
Components of results of operations
Revenue
We generate revenue from two sources: (1) subscription solutions revenue and (2) partner and services revenue.
Subscription solutions revenue consists primarily of platform subscription fees from plans and recurring professional services. Subscription solutions are charged monthly, quarterly, or annually for our customers to sell their products and process transactions on our platform. Subscription solutions are generally charged per online store and are based on the store’s subscription plan. Our Enterprise plan contracts are generally for a fixed term of 12 to 36 months and are non-cancelable. In the first half of 2023, we implemented a new pricing strategy that provided enterprise merchants a discount for a period of time from their contractual monthly fee. Prior to this new strategy, certain enterprise agreements contain promotional periods. Under both models, merchants have full access to the functionality of our platform upon contract execution, and revenue is recognized ratably over the contract life. Our retail plans are generally month-to-month contracts. Monthly subscription fees for Enterprise plans are adjusted if a customer’s GMV or
26
orders processed are outside of specified plan thresholds on a trailing twelve-month basis. Fixed monthly fees and any transaction charges related to subscription solutions are recognized as revenue in the month they are earned.
Through Feedonomics, we provide feed management solutions under service contracts which are generally one year or less and, in many cases, month-to-month. These service types may be sold stand-alone or as part of a multi-service bundle (e.g. both marketplaces and advertising) and are billed monthly in arrears.
We generate partner revenue from our technology application ecosystem. Customers tailor their stores to meet their feature needs by integrating applications developed by our strategic technology partners. We enter into contracts with our strategic technology partners that are generally for one year or longer. We generate revenue from these contracts in three ways: (1) revenue-sharing arrangements, (2) technology integrations, and (3) partner marketing and promotion. We recognize revenue on a net basis from revenue-sharing arrangements when the underlying transaction occurs.
We also generate revenue from non-recurring professional services that we provide to complement the capabilities of our customers and their agency partners. Our services help improve customers’ time-to-market and the success of their businesses using BigCommerce. Our non-recurring services include education packages, launch services, solutions architecting, implementation consulting, and catalog transfer services.
Cost of revenue
Cost of revenue consists primarily of: (1) personnel-related costs (including stock-based compensation expense and associated payroll costs) for our customer success teams, (2) costs that are directly related to hosting and maintaining our platform, (3) fees for processing customer payments such as credit card processing charges, (4) personnel and other costs related to feed management, and (5) allocated costs, such as, depreciation, technology and facility costs. We expect that cost of revenue will increase in absolute dollars, but may fluctuate as a percentage of total revenue from period to period.
As a result of our growth plans and integration of our previously acquired businesses, we have incurred expenses for equity and amortization of purchased intangibles.
Sales and marketing
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of: (1) personnel-related expenses (including stock-based compensation expense and associated payroll costs), (2) sales commissions, (3) marketing programs, (4) travel-related expenses, and (5) allocated overhead sales and support costs such as technology and facility costs. We focus our sales and marketing efforts on creating sales leads and establishing and promoting our brand. We plan to increase our investment in sales and marketing by executing our go-to-market strategy globally and building our brand awareness. Incremental sales commissions for new customer contracts are deferred and amortized ratably over the estimated period of our relationship with such customers. We have seen lower sales and marketing efficiency results in recent quarters as platform investment spending has tightened across our industry.
Research and development
Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses (including stock-based compensation expense and associated payroll costs) incurred in maintaining and developing enhancements to our ecommerce platform and allocated overhead costs. Software development costs associated with internal use software which are incurred during the application development phase and meet other requirements are capitalized.
We believe delivering new functionality is critical to attracting new customers and enhancing the success of existing customers. We expect to continue to make investments in research and development. We expect our research and development expenses to increase in absolute dollars, but decrease as a percentage of total revenue over time, as we continue to leverage engineers in other low-cost international locations.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of: (1) personnel-related expenses (including stock-based compensation expense and associated payroll costs) for finance, legal and compliance, and human resources, (2) external professional services, and (3) allocated overhead costs, such as technology and facility costs. We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars but will decrease as a percent of revenue.
Acquisition related expenses
Acquisition related expenses consists of cash payments for third-party acquisition costs and other acquisition related expenses, including contingent compensation arrangements entered into in connection with acquisitions.
27
Restructuring charges
Restructuring charges consist primarily of employee notice period expenses and severance payments, lease or contract termination costs, and considerations of various capital alternatives which include asset impairments, professional services, and other costs relating to significant items that are nonrecurring or unusual.
Amortization of intangible assets
Amortization of intangible assets consist of amortization of acquired intangible assets which were recognized as a result of business combinations and are being amortized over their expected useful life.
Interest income
Interest income is earned on our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.
Interest expense
Interest expense consists primarily of the interest expense from the amortization of the debt issuance costs and coupon interest attributable to our convertible note issued in 2021, as well as interest associated with a financing agreement entered into in the first half of 2023.
Other expense
Other expense primarily consists of loss from share issuance related to the Bundle acquisition and foreign currency translation adjustments.
Provision for income taxes
Our Provision for income taxes consists primarily of deferred income taxes associated with amortization of tax deductible goodwill and current income taxes related to certain foreign and state jurisdictions in which we conduct business. For U.S. federal income tax purposes and in certain foreign and state jurisdictions, we have NOL carryforwards. The foreign jurisdictions in which we operate have different statutory tax rates than those of the United States. Additionally, certain of our foreign earnings may also be currently taxable in the United States. Accordingly, our effective tax rate will vary depending on the relative proportion of foreign to domestic income, use of foreign tax credits, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, applicability of any valuation allowances, and changes in tax laws in jurisdictions in which we operate.

General and administrative expenses increased $1.0 million, or 7.0 percent, to $15.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from $14.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to increased spend of $0.7 million in salaries and share-based compensation driven by increased headcount and increased professional service expenses of $0.4 million. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expenses decreased to 18.9 percent from 19.1 percent, primarily as a result of cost cutting measures from the 2023 Restructure.

31
lower renewal rates. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expenses decreased to 18.7 percent from 21.0 percent, primarily as a result of cost cutting measures from the 2023 Restructure.
Acquisition related expenses
Acquisition related expense decreased $3.8 million, or (91.9) percent, to $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, from $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and decreased $7.6 million, or 91.9 percent, to $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, from $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Acquisition costs recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 represent the amortization of deferred compensation for the Makeswift acquisition. Acquisition costs in prior years related to other transactions and acquisition costs for Feedonomics were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.
Restructuring charges
Restructuring charges were $2.6 million and $0.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and were $2.6 million and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The $2.6 million is primarily a result of professional services related to our capital structure and various alternatives associated with inbound inquiries and interest in the Company.
Interest income
Interest income increased $0.4 million, or 13.1 percent, to $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, from $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and increased $1.1 million, or 21.4 percent to $6.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This increase was primarily a result of higher cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balances.
Interest expense
Interest expense was $0.7 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and was $1.4 million and $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 related to our outstanding debt.
Liquidity and capital resources
We are committed to cash flow generation and cash management by focusing on operational discipline, and we continue to evaluate all of our spending to look for opportunities to drive improvements in cash flow. Our success in transitioning our customer base from legacy month-to-month contracts to more favorable payment terms has continued to result in better cash flow as these efforts have increased the timing of our cash receipts and reduced our overall subscription churn rate.
Our operational short-term liquidity needs primarily include working capital for sales and marketing, research and development, and continued innovation. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our growth rate, levels of revenue, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, market acceptance of our platform, the results of business initiatives including our efforts in transitioning our customers to annual billings, continued reduction in churn, the timing of new product introductions, the continued impact of the inflation on the global economy, market risk due to elevated interest rates, our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents and our cash flows from operating activities will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next twelve months. In the future, we may attempt to raise additional capital through the sale of additional equity or debt financing.
Additionally, with our recently announced anticipated convertible notes restructuring, there will be an inherent reduction in liquidity. However, we believe as a result of the renegotiation and extension of the remaining obligation, we will decrease our overall debt leverage and better optimize our maturities. The restructuring of the convertible notes will require semi-annual interest payments to significantly increase over the new extended period.
From time to time, we may seek to repurchase, redeem or otherwise retire our convertible notes through cash repurchases and/or exchanges for equity securities, in open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Such repurchases, redemptions or other transactions, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. We do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements that we expect would materially affect our liquidity and capital resources.

Indebtedness
2026 Convertible senior notes
In September 2021, we issued $345.0 million principal amount of 0.25 percent Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 2026 Convertible Notes”). The 2026 Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to, and are governed by, an indenture (the “2026 Convertible Notes Indenture”), dated as of September 14, 2021, between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.
The 2026 Convertible Notes are our senior, unsecured obligations and are (i) equal in right of payment with our future senior, unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to our future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the 2026 Convertible Notes in right of payment; (iii) effectively subordinated to our future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness; and (iv) structurally subordinated to all future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and (to the extent we are not a holder thereof) preferred equity, if any, of our subsidiaries.
The 2026 Convertible Notes accrue interest at a rate of 0.25 percent per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on April 1, 2022. The 2026 Convertible Notes will mature on October 1, 2026, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before July 1, 2026, noteholders have the right to convert their Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after July 1, 2026, noteholders may convert their Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. We will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. The initial conversion rate was 13.6783 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $73.11 per share of common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events. In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2026 Convertible Notes Indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time.
We may not redeem the 2026 Convertible Notes at our option at any time before October 7, 2024. The 2026 Convertible Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to the “Partial Redemption Limitation” (as defined in the 2026 Convertible Notes Indenture)), at our option at any time, and from time to time, on or after October 7, 2024 and on or before the 25th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, but only if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock exceeds 130 percent of the conversion price on (i) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date we send the related redemption notice; and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date we send such notice. The redemption price will be a cash amount equal to the principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, calling any Note for redemption will constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change with respect to that Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that Note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption. Pursuant to the Partial Redemption Limitation, we may not elect to redeem less than all of the outstanding Notes unless at least $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes are outstanding and not subject to redemption as of the time we send the related redemption notice.
If certain corporate events that constitute a “Fundamental Change” (as defined in the 2026 Convertible Notes Indenture) occur, then, subject to a limited exception for certain cash mergers, noteholders may require us to repurchase their Notes at a cash repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. The definition of Fundamental Change includes certain business combination transactions involving us and certain de-listing events with respect to our common stock.
The 2026 Convertible Notes have customary provisions relating to the occurrence of “Events of Default” (as defined in the Convertible Notes Indenture), which include the following: (i) certain payment defaults on the 2026 Convertible Notes (which, in the case of a default in the payment of interest on the 2026 Convertible Notes, will be subject to a 30-day cure period); (ii) our failure to send certain notices under the 2026 Convertible Notes Indenture within specified periods of time; (iii) our failure to comply with certain covenants in the 2026 Convertible Notes Indenture relating to our ability to consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of the assets of us and our subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person; (iv) a default by us in our other obligations or agreements under the 2026 Convertible Notes Indenture or the 2026 Convertible Notes if such default is not cured or waived within 60 days after notice is given in accordance with the 2026 Convertible Notes Indenture; (v) certain defaults by us or any of our significant subsidiaries with respect to indebtedness for borrowed money of at least $65.0 million; and (vi) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization involving us or any of our significant subsidiaries.
34
If an Event of Default involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to us (and not solely with respect to a significant subsidiary of us) occurs, then the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 2026 Convertible Notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any person. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then, the trustee, by notice to us, or noteholders of at least 25 percent of the aggregate principal amount of 2026 Convertible Notes then outstanding, by notice to us and the trustee, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the 2026 Convertible Notes then outstanding to become due and payable immediately. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, we may elect, at our option, that the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to certain failures by us to comply with certain reporting covenants in the 2026 Convertible Notes Indenture consists exclusively of the right of the noteholders to receive special interest on the 2026 Convertible Notes for up to 180 days at a specified rate per annum not exceeding 0.50 percent on the principal amount of the 2026 Notes.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2024 or as of December 31, 2023.
Critical accounting policies and estimates
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We also make estimates and assumptions on the reported revenue generated and reported expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Recent accounting pronouncements
A discussion of recent accounting pronouncements is included in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Interest rate risk
Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, consist primarily of interest-bearing accounts. Such interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. To minimize interest rate risk in the future, we intend to maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents in a variety of investment-grade securities, which may include commercial paper, money market funds, and government and non-government debt securities. Because of the short-term maturities of our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities, we do not believe that an increase in market rates would have any significant negative impact on the realized value of our investments. An immediate increase or decrease in interest rates of 100 basis points at June 30, 2024 could result in a $2 million market value reduction or increase of the same amount. The 2028 Convertible Notes will bear interest at a rate of 7.5 percent per annum, which is expected to increase our annual interest expense after giving effect to the 2028 Notes Restructuring Transactions.
The fair value of our 2026 Convertible Notes is subject to interest rate risk, market risk and other factors due to the conversion feature. The Capped Call Transactions that were entered into concurrently with the issuance of our 2026 Convertible Notes were completed to reduce the potential dilution from the conversion of the 2026 Convertible Notes. The fair value of the 2026 Convertible Notes will generally increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. In addition, the fair value of the 2026 Convertible Notes will generally increase as our common stock price increases and will generally decrease as our common stock price declines. The interest and market value changes affect the fair value of the 2026 Convertible Notes but do not impact our financial position, cash flows or results of operations due to the fixed nature of the debt obligation.
When issued, the fair value of our 2028 Convertible Notes will be subject to interest rate risk, market risk and other factors due to the conversion feature. When issued, the fair value of the 2028 Convertible Notes will generally increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. In addition, when issued, the fair value of the 2028 Convertible Notes will generally increase as our common stock price increases and will generally decrease as our common stock price declines. The interest and market value changes affect the fair value of the 2028 Convertible Notes when issued, but do not impact our financial position, cash flows or results of operations due to the fixed nature of the debt obligation.
Foreign currency exchange risk
All of our revenue and a majority of our expense and capital purchasing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2024 were transacted in U.S. dollars. As we expand our sales and operations internationally, we will be more exposed to changes in foreign exchange rates. Our international revenue is currently collected in U.S. dollars. In the future, as we expand into additional international jurisdictions, we expect that our international sales will be primarily denominated in U.S. dollars. If we decide in the future to denominate international sales in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, unfavorable movement in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the currencies in which we conduct foreign sales could have an adverse impact on our revenue.
A portion of our operating expenses are incurred outside the United States and are denominated in foreign currencies, which are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. In particular, in our Mexico, Australia and UK-based operations, we pay payroll and other expenses in Mexican pesos, Australian dollars and British pounds sterling, respectively. Our operating results and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. However, we believe that the exposure to foreign currency fluctuation from operating expenses is relatively small at this time as the related costs do not constitute a significant portion of our total expenses.
We currently do not hedge foreign currency exposure. We may in the future hedge our foreign currency exposure and may use currency forward contracts, currency options, and/or other common derivative financial instruments to reduce foreign currency risk. It is difficult to predict the effect future hedging activities would have on our operating results.
Credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and accounts receivable. Our investment policy limits investments to high credit quality securities issued by the U.S. government, U.S. government-sponsored agencies, and highly rated corporate securities, subject to certain concentration limits and restrictions on maturities. Our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are held by financial institutions that management believes are of high credit quality. Amounts on deposit may at times exceed FDIC insured limits. We have not experienced any losses on our deposits of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts are monitored by management to mitigate risk. We are exposed to credit risk in the event of default by the financial institutions holding our cash and cash equivalents or an event of default by the issuers of the corporate debt securities we hold.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
As of June 30, 2024, and under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded as of June 30, 2024, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting that was disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (“Form 10-K”).
As discussed in Part II, Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures” in our Form 10-K, we identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting in the following areas:
We did not maintain effective controls over (i) user access to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and adequately restrict user and privileged access to financial applications, programs and data to the appropriate personnel; (ii) program change management for financial applications to ensure that IT program and data changes affecting financial IT applications and underlying accounting records are identified, tested, authorized and implemented appropriately; and (iii) IT operations controls to ensure that critical interface jobs are monitored.
Status of Remediation Efforts
In response to the material weakness identified and described above, our management, with the oversight of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, will continue through 2024 to dedicate significant efforts and resources to further improve our control environment and to take steps to remediate this material weakness.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
Except for the implementation of our remediation plans in connection with our ineffective disclosure controls and procedures described above, there have been no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the three month period ended June 30, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation related to claims arising from the ordinary course of our business. The Company believes that there are no claims or actions pending or threatened against us, the ultimate disposition of which would have a material adverse effect on us.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Except as set forth below, as of the date of this report, there are no material changes to our risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Our failure to generate sufficient cash flow from our business as a result of the proposed convertible notes restructuring and elevated interest rates would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our ability to pay interest and required principal payments on our indebtedness depends upon cash flows generated by our operating performance. As a result, prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, may affect our ability to make these payments and reduce the level of our indebtedness over time.
The interest rate on our proposed convertible notes due October 2028 is 7.5%, and based on the anticipated exchange of approximately $161.2 million of our existing convertible notes due October 2026, our annual coupon payments would be significantly more than our current 2026 Convertible Notes. Additionally, we anticipate spending approximately $108.7 million in cash on the repurchase of a portion of our outstanding convertible notes due October 2026. If we do not generate sufficient cash flow from operations to satisfy our debt servicing obligations, we may have to undertake alternative financing plans, such as refinancing or restructuring our indebtedness, selling assets or seeking to raise additional capital.
Further, our anticipated spending in relation to the debt restructuring combined with elevated interest rates could have significant adverse consequences, including: reducing cash resources available to fund working capital, capital expenditures, product development efforts and other general corporate purposes; impeding our ability to capitalize on strategic opportunities; reducing profitability; increasing our vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry, and market conditions; limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our industry; and placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt or better debt servicing options.
The terms of the indenture (the “2028 Convertible Notes Indenture”) that will govern the 2028 Convertible Notes will impose restrictions that may limit our current and future operating flexibility, particularly our ability to respond to changes in the economy or our industry or to take certain actions, which could harm our long-term interests.
The 2028 Convertible Notes Indenture and the exchange agreement governing the exchange of 2026 Convertible Notes for 2028 Convertible Notes (to the extent the exchanging holder continues to hold a specified amount of 2028 Convertible Notes) will contain a number of restrictive covenants that impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us and limit our ability to engage in acts that may be in our long-term best interest, including restrictions on our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries (to the extent any such subsidiaries incur or guarantee indebtedness) to:
As a result of these restrictions we may be:
These restrictions may hinder our ability to grow in accordance with our strategies. In addition, while we are not permitted to incur any additional senior indebtedness (other than the Senior Secured Revolving Indebtedness), the incurrence of subordinated indebtedness will be subject to the requirement that the 2028 Convertible Notes be secured by all of our assets (subject to customary exceptions) concurrently with any incurrence of subordinated indebtedness.
38
A breach of the covenants under the 2028 Convertible Notes Indenture or under the 2026 Convertible Notes Indenture could result in an event of default under the applicable indebtedness. Such a default, if not cured or waived, may allow the creditors to accelerate the related debt and may result in the acceleration of any other debt that is subject to an applicable cross-acceleration or cross-default provision. Furthermore, if we were unable to repay the amounts due and payable under the 2028 Convertible Notes Indenture and the 2028 Convertible Notes are then secured, holders of the 2028 Convertible Notes could proceed against the collateral securing such indebtedness. If the holders of the 2028 Convertible Notes accelerate the repayment of our borrowings, we and our subsidiaries may not have sufficient assets to repay that indebtedness.
