Description of Business

Porch Group, Inc. (“Porch Group”, “Porch” or the “Company”) is a vertical software platform for the home, providing software and services to home services companies, such as home inspectors, insurance carriers, moving companies, utility companies, warranty companies, and others. Porch helps these service providers grow their business and improve their customer experience. In exchange for the use of the software, these companies connect their homebuyers to Porch, who in turn offer services to make the moving process easier, helping consumers save time and make better decisions about critical services, including insurance, moving, security, TV/internet, home repair and improvement, and more. While some customers pay Porch typical software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) fees, the majority of Porch’s revenue comes from business-to-business-to-consumer (“B2B2C”) transaction revenues, with service providers such as insurance carriers or TV/internet companies paying Porch for new customer sign-ups.

The Merger

On July 30, 2020, Porch.com, Inc. (“Legacy Porch”) entered into a definitive agreement (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”) with PropTech Acquisition Corporation (“PTAC”), a special purpose acquisition company, whereby the parties agreed to merge, resulting in the parent of Porch.com, Inc. becoming a publicly-listed company under the name Porch Group, Inc. (“Porch”). This merger (the “Merger”) closed on December 23, 2020, and consisted of the following transactions:

·

Holders of 400 shares of PTAC Class A Common Stock exercised their redemption right to redeem those shares at a redemption price of $10.04. The shares were subsequently canceled by PTAC. The aggregate redemption price was paid from PTAC’s trust account, which had a balance immediately prior to the Merger closing of approximately $173.1 million. After redemptions, 17,249,600 shares of PTAC Class A Stock remained outstanding. Upon consummation of the Merger, 4,312,500 PTAC Class B Common Stock converted into shares of PTAC Class A Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. 14,325,000 common stock warrants remained outstanding as a result of the Merger. Of the outstanding warrants, 5,700,000 are private warrants and 8,625,000 are public warrants. Each warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, commencing 30 days after the completion of the Merger, and expiring on December 23, 2025, which is the fifth anniversary of the Merger closing.

·

Immediately prior to the Merger, (including as a result of the conversions described above and certain redemption of PTAC common stock immediately prior to the closing), there were 21,562,100 shares of PTAC Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding, which excludes the additional shares issued to Legacy Porch holders, and issuance of new shares to third-party investors, as further described below.

·

Immediately prior the Merger, 52,207,029 shares of Legacy Porch preferred stock were converted into 52,251,876 shares of Legacy Porch common stock. 4,472,695 outstanding in-the-money warrants to purchase common stock, 2,316,280 outstanding in-the-money warrants to purchase preferred stock, and 184,652 out-of-the-money warrants to purchase preferred stock were canceled, pursuant to the terms of warrant cancellation agreements, resulting in the issuance of 5,126,128 shares of Legacy Porch common stock. 2,533,016 shares of Legacy Porch common stock were issued to extinguish 3,116,003 vested stock options and restricted stock units (“RSU”) of non-employee or non-service provider holders.

·

Immediately prior to the Merger, certain third-party investors (“PIPE Investors”), purchased 15,000,000 newly-issued shares of Porch Group, Inc. common stock at a price of $10.00 per share in exchange for cash. Net proceeds from the additional offering were $141.8 million after the deduction of $8.2 million of direct offering costs.

·

PTAC issued 36,264,984 shares of PTAC Class A Common Stock and $30 million in exchange for all 83,559,663 vested and outstanding shares of Legacy Porch common stock to complete the Merger. In addition, 5,000,000 “earnout” shares were issued to pre-closing holders of Legacy Porch common stock, employee or service provider holders of unvested Legacy Porch option and restricted stockholders, subject to vesting conditions. 1,000,000 restricted shares subject to the same were issued to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company subject to the same vesting condition as the “earnout” shares. An additional 150,000 shares were provided to service providers in exchange for services related to the transaction.

·

In connection with the Merger, PTAC changed its name to Porch Group, Inc. as a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware named Porch Group, Inc.

·

The aggregate proceeds from the PTAC trust account, net proceeds from the sale of the newly-issued common stock to PIPE investors described above, and PTAC net working capital amount of $0.6 million were used to settle i) PTAC’s deferred offering costs of $6.0 million from its original public offering, and ii) $4.3 million of PTAC liabilities incurred prior to the Merger. After the transactions noted above, $305.1 million was available for use by the Company, prior to a $30 million distribution to pre-closing holders of Legacy Porch common stock, resulting in net assets available of $275.1 million.

·

In connection with the Merger, Porch incurred $30.8 million of transaction costs of which, $5.6 million were paid in cash. In addition, Porch issued 1,580,000 shares of common stock at a fair value of $23.3 million and 150,000 earnout shares at a fair value of $1.9 million as compensation for transaction services. Of the total amount, $27.0 million met the eligibility criteria to be charged against equity because the costs were incurred pursuant to an issuance of equity as part of the recapitalization. $3.8 million were recognized as expenses, as the costs were deemed related to the issuance private warrants and earnout shares which are liability classified financial instruments.

·

As a result of the foregoing transactions, $239.7 million was reflected as contributed capital on the Company’s consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity (deficit). Presented separately, the Company also assumed a $50.4 million non-cash liability associated with the earnout shares, and a $34.0 million liability associated with the private warrants, both described above.

·

At the closing of the Merger, pre-closing holders of Legacy Porch common stock held approximately 55% of the issued and outstanding common stock shares of Porch.

Accordingly, the Merger transactions were treated as the equivalent of Porch.com, Inc. issuing stock for the net assets of PTAC. Consistent with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Topic 12, Reverse Acquisitions and Reverse Recapitalizations, the acquisition of a private operating company by a non-operating public shell corporation typically results in the owners and management of the private company having actual or effective voting control and operating control of the combined company. Therefore, the transaction is, in substance, a reverse recapitalization, equivalent to the issuance of stock by the private company for the net monetary assets of the shell corporation accompanied by a recapitalization (“Recapitalization”). The accounting is similar to that of a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill or other intangible assets should be recorded. Therefore, the net assets of PTAC as of December 23, 2020, were stated at historical cost, and no goodwill or other intangible assets were recorded.

COVID‑19 Update

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a pandemic related to the global novel coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) outbreak. The COVID-19 pandemic and the measures adopted by government entities in response to it have adversely affected Porch’s business operations, which impacted revenue primarily in the first half of 2020. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and related mitigation on Porch’s ability to conduct ordinary course business activities has been and may continue to be impaired for an indefinite period of time. The extent of the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Porch’s operational and financial performance will depend on various future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and impact on the Company’s customers, suppliers, and employees, all of which is uncertain at this time. Porch expects the COVID-19 pandemic to adversely impact future revenues and results of operations, but Porch is unable to predict at this time the size and duration of such adverse impact. At the same time, Porch is observing a recovery in home sales to pre-COVID-19 levels in the second half of 2020 and in the first quarter of 2021, and with them, home inspections and related services.

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Porch and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. In this Quarterly Report, Porch Group, Inc. is referred to as “Porch,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our.” The information as of December 31, 2020 included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report were prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (all of which are considered of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods and dates presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the footnotes and management’s discussion and analysis of the audited consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on May 19, 2021.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of adjustments related to the effect of the Company’s own credit components on the fair value of certain convertible promissory notes at fair value in accordance with the fair value option (“FVO Notes”). Each reporting period, the fair value of the FVO Notes is determined and resulting gains and losses from the change in fair value of the FVO Notes associated with the Company’s own credit component is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), while the resulting gains and losses associated with non-credit components are included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The FVO Notes were extinguished during 2020.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, estimated variable consideration for services performed, the allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciable lives for property and equipment, acquired intangible assets, goodwill, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, assumptions used in stock-based compensation, and estimates of fair value of warrants, debt, contingent consideration, earnout liability and private warrant liability. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions, and those differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Investments in equity of unconsolidated affiliates, over which the Company has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies, are accounted for primarily using the equity method. For investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s share of income (losses) is included in other expense, net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. These investments are immaterial to the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Segment Reporting

The Company operates in a single segment. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. The Company has determined that its Chief Executive Officer is the CODM. To date, the Company’s CODM has made such decisions and assessed performance at the Company level.

All the Company’s revenue is generated in the United States.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company did not have assets located outside of the United States.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances that may exceed the insured limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Restricted cash as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 includes $10,435 and $8,407, respectively, related to the Paycheck Protection Program Loans held in escrow with a commercial bank (see Note 6). As of December 31, 2020, the restricted cash balance also includes a $3,000 minimum cash balance required by the Company’s senior secured lender.

The reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents to amounts presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows are as follows:

Accounts Receivable and Long-term Insurance Commissions Receivable

Accounts receivable consist principally of amounts due from enterprise customers and other corporate partnerships, as well as credit card receivables. The Company estimates allowances for uncollectible receivables based on the credit worthiness of its customers, historical trend analysis, and general economic conditions. Consequently, an adverse change in those factors could affect the Company’s estimate of allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for uncollectible receivables at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, was $242 and $249, respectively.

Long-term insurance commissions receivable balance consists of the estimated commissions from policy renewals expected to be collected.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s assets and liabilities which require fair value measurement on a recurring basis, consist of contingent consideration, redeemable convertible preferred stock warrants and convertible notes recorded at fair value.

Fair value principles require disclosures regarding the manner in which fair value is determined for assets and liabilities and establishes a three-tiered fair value hierarchy into which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based upon significant levels of inputs as follows:

Level 1Observable inputs, such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;

Level 2Observable inputs, other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

Level 3Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

The lowest level of significant input determines the placement of the entire fair value measurement in the hierarchy. Management’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires management to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability.

Earnout Shares

Upon the Merger, 6,000,000 restricted common shares, subject to vesting and cancellation provisions, were issued to holders of pre-Merger Porch common stock (the “earnout shares”). The earnout shares were issued in three equal tranches with separate market vesting conditions. One-third of the earnout shares will meet the market vesting condition when the closing price of the Company’s common stock is greater than or equal to $18.00 over any 20 trading days within any thirty-consecutive trading day period within 36 months of the closing date of the Merger. An additional third will vest when the Company’s common stock is greater than or equal to $20.00 over the same measurement period. The final third will vest when the Company’s common stock is greater than or equal to $22.00 over the same measurement period. The earnout shares may be contingently canceled, depending on the outcome of the Company’s application for forgiveness of the U.S. Small Business Administration loan under the Paycheck Protection Program. Additional earnout shares may also be issued earnout shareholders, on a pro rata basis, depending on forfeitures of employee earnout shares that are subject to a continued service vesting condition (see Note 8).

The earnout shares are accounted for as a derivative financial instrument that is classified as a liability and periodically measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized through earnings. Note 3 details the beginning and ending balances of the earnout share liability, and activity recognized during the period.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company primarily generates revenue from (1) fees received for connecting homeowners to customers in the Company’s referral network, which consist of individual contractors, small businesses, insurance carriers and large enterprises (2) fees received for providing home project and moving services directly to homeowners, and (3) fees received for providing subscription access to the Company’s software platforms and subscription services across various industries. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised services or goods is transferred to our customers and in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services or goods.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following five-step framework:

·

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

·

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

·

Determination of the transaction price;

·

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

·

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

The Company identifies performance obligations in its contracts with customers, which primarily include delivery of homeowner leads (Referral Network Revenue), performance of home project and moving services (Managed Services Revenue), and providing access to the Company’s software platforms and subscription services (Software and Service Subscription Revenue). The transaction price is determined based on the amount which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for providing the promised services to the customer. The transaction price in the contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied. In certain transactions the transaction price is considered variable and an estimate of the constrained transaction price is recorded by the Company. Changes in variable consideration may result in an increase or a decrease to revenue. Changes to the estimated variable consideration were not material for the periods presented.

Contract payment terms vary from due upon receipt to net 30 days. Collectability is assessed based on a number of factors including collection history and creditworthiness of the customer. If collectability of substantially all consideration to which the Company is entitled under the contract is determined to be not probable, revenue is not recorded until collectability becomes probable at a later date.

Revenue is recorded based on the transaction price excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes collected and remitted to governmental authorities.

Referral Network Revenue

In the Referral Network Revenue stream, the Company connects third-party service providers (“Service Providers”) with homeowners that meet pre-defined criteria and may be looking for relevant services. Service Providers include a variety of service providers throughout a homeowner’s lifecycle, including plumbers, electricians, roofers, as well as movers, TV/Internet, warranty, insurance carriers, and security monitoring providers. The Company also sells home and auto insurance policies for insurance carriers.

Revenue is recognized at a point in time upon delivery of a lead to the Service Provider, at which point the Company’s performance obligation has been satisfied. The transaction price is generally either a fixed price per qualifying lead or based on a percentage of the revenue the Service Provider ultimately generates through the homeowner lead. For arrangements in which the amount the Company is entitled to is based on the amount of revenue the Service Provider generates from the homeowner, the transaction price is considered variable and an estimate of the constrained transaction price is recorded by the Company upon delivery of the lead.

Service Providers generally have the option to pay as they receive leads or on a subscription basis, in which a specified amount is deposited into the Company’s referral platform monthly and any relevant leads are applied against the deposited amount. Certain Service Providers also have the option to pay an additional fixed fee for added member benefits, including profile distinction and rewards. Such subscriptions automatically renew each month unless canceled by the customer in advance of the renewal period in accordance with the customer termination provisions. Amounts received in advance of delivery of leads to the Service Provider is recorded as deferred revenue. Certain Service Providers have the right to return leads in limited instances. An estimate of returns is included as a reduction of revenue based on historical experience or specific identification depending on the contractual terms of the arrangement. Estimated returns are not material in any period presented.

In January 2020, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary and licensed insurance agency, Elite Insurance Group (“EIG”), began selling homeowner and auto insurance policies for insurance carriers. The transaction price in these arrangements is the estimated lifetime value (“LTV”) of the policies sold. The LTV represents fixed first-year commission upon sale of the policy as well as the estimated variable future renewal commissions. The Company constrains the transaction price based on its best estimate of the amount which will not result in a significant reversal of revenue in a future period. After a policy is sold to an insurance carrier, the Company has no additional or ongoing obligation to the policyholder or insurance carrier.

The Company estimates LTV of policies sold by using a portfolio approach by policy type and the effective month of the relevant policy. LTV is estimated by evaluating various factors, including commission rates for specific carriers and estimated average plan duration based on insurance carrier and market data related to policy renewals for similar insurance policies. On a quarterly basis, management reviews and monitors changes in the data used to estimate LTV as well as the cash received for each policy type compared to original estimates. The Company analyzes these fluctuations and, to the extent it identifies changes in estimates of the cash commission collections that it believes are indicative of an increase or decrease to prior period LTVs, the Company will adjust LTV for the affected policies at the time such determination is made. Changes in LTV may result in an increase or a decrease to revenue. Changes to the estimated variable consideration were not material for the periods presented.

Managed Services Revenue

Managed services revenue includes fees earned from homeowners for providing a variety of services directly to the homeowner, including handyman, plumbing, electrical, appliance repair, and moving services. The Company generally invoices for managed services projects on a fixed fee or time and materials basis. The transaction price represents the contractually agreed upon price with the end customer for providing the respective service. Revenue is recognized as services are performed based on an output measure of progress, which is generally over a short duration (e.g., same day). Fees earned for providing managed services projects are non-refundable and there is generally no right of return.

The Company acts as the principal in managed services revenue as the Company is primarily responsible to the end customer for providing the service, has a level of discretion in establishing pricing, and controls the service prior to providing it to the end customer. This control is evidenced by the ability to identify, select, and direct the service provider that provides the ultimate service to end customers.

Software and Service Subscription Revenue

The Company’s subscription arrangements, which primarily relates to subscriptions to the Company’s home inspector software, do not provide the customer with the right to take possession of the software supporting the cloud-based application services. The Company also provides certain data analytics and marketing services under subscription contracts. The Company’s standard subscription contracts are monthly contracts in which pricing is based on a specified price per inspection completed through the software. Fees earned for providing access to the subscription software and services are non-refundable and there is no right of return. Revenue is recognized based on the amount which the Company is entitled to for providing access to the subscription software and services during the monthly contract term.

Income Taxes

Provisions for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were $350 benefit and $21 expense, respectively, and the effective tax rates for these periods were 0.53% and -0.11%, respectively. The difference between the Company’s effective tax rates for the 2021 period and the U.S. statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to a full valuation allowance related to the Company’s net deferred assets and the impact of acquisitions on the Company’s valuation allowance.  The difference between the Company’s effective tax rates for the 2020 period and the U.S. statutory rate of 21% was primarily due to a full valuation allowance related to the Company’s net deferred tax assets.

Emerging Growth Company Status

The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (i) is no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, these consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. The Company expects to use the extended transition period for any new or revised accounting standards during the period in which it remains an emerging growth company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current U.S. GAAP. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The ASU is effective for public companies, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and adoption must be as of the beginning of the Company’s annual fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016‑13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. Additionally, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019‑04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326 in April 2019 and ASU 2019‑05, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326) — Targeted Transition Relief in May 2019. The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance-sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019‑10, which defers the effective date of ASU No. 2016‑13 for smaller reporting companies to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. In the event the Company no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company, it will no longer qualify for the deferral of the effective date available for emerging growth companies. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU No. 2016‑13 on the consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, and statements of cash flows.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016‑02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard is effective for non-public companies for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021 and early adoption is permitted. The comprehensive new standard will amend and supersede existing lease accounting guidance and is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and requiring disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. The guidance requires lessees and lessors to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In the event the Company no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company, it will no longer qualify for the deferral of the effective date available for emerging growth companies. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adoption will have on the consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, and statements of cash flows and expects that the adoption of the ASU will increase assets and liabilities related to the Company’s operating leases on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company estimates that the adoption of Topic 842 in 2021 would increase the Company’s total assets reflecting right of use asset of approximately $2.5 million and total liabilities reflecting the lease obligation payable of approximately $2.5 million.
