On April 12, 2021, the Staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission released a statement highlighting a number of financial reporting considerations for Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (“SPACs”) (the “SEC Staff Statement”). The SEC Staff Statement highlighted potential accounting implications of certain terms that are common in warrants issued in connection with initial public offerings of SPACs. The SEC Staff Statement clarified guidance for all SPAC-related companies regarding the accounting and reporting for their warrants that could result in the warrants issued by SPACs being classified as a liability measured at fair value, with non-cash fair value adjustments recorded in earnings at each reporting period.

In light of the SEC Staff Statement, the Company reevaluated the accounting treatment of the Public Warrants and Private Warrants, which had been classified as equity on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020. The Company determined that the Public Warrants did not contain these provisions and were otherwise appropriately classified as equity. However, the Private Warrant agreements provided for an alternative settlement structure dependent upon the characteristic of being an eligible Private Warrant holder. As the characteristics of a warrant holder are not inputs into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares, such provision precludes the Private Warrants from being classified in equity, and thus the Private Warrants should be classified as a liability.

With this restatement, the Private Warrants are now appropriately classified as a liability measured at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020, and the change in fair value of such liability in each period is presented as a non-cash gain or loss in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

When presenting diluted earnings (loss) per share in the Company’s Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020, the shares issuable under the Private Warrants were considered for inclusion in the diluted share count in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Since the shares issuable under the Private Warrants are issuable shares when exercised by the holders, they are included when computing diluted earnings (loss) per share to the extent such exercise is dilutive to EPS.

The adjustments related to the Private Warrants had a non-cash impact; as such, the statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020 reflects an adjustment to net loss and a corresponding adjustment for the (gain) loss on the change in fair value of Warrants.

The following presents a reconciliation of the impacted financial statement line items as filed to the restated amounts as of December 31, 2020 and for the year then ended. The previously reported amounts reflect those included in the Original Filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2021. These amounts are labeled as “As Filed” in the tables below. The amounts labeled “Restatement Adjustments” represent the effects of this restatement due to the change in classification of the Private Warrants from stockholders’ equity (deficit) to liability on the balance sheet, with subsequent changes in the fair value recognized in the statement of operations at each reporting date. Also included in the amounts labeled “Adjustment” is the effect of expensing transaction costs allocated to the Private Warrants in the statement of operations that were previously charged to stockholders’ equity (deficit). Finally, the amounts labeled “Restatement Adjustments” also include the correction of certain other previously identified immaterial errors in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020. The impact of correcting these other immaterial items on the financial statements was an increase in net loss of $0.9 million.

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 makes 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.

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:

●

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. (hereafter referred to as “Porch”).

●

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 Porch Group, Inc., 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 (as restated) 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 (as restated) 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) (as restated). Presented separately, the Company also assumed a $50.4 million non-cash liability associated with the earnout shares, and $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 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 has adversely affected Porch’s business operations, which has impacted revenue primarily in the first half of 2020. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak and government-imposed measures to control its spread, 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 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 revenue and results of operations, but Porch is unable to predict at this time the size and duration of this 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 with them, home inspections and related services.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Comprehensive loss includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Through December 31, 2020, there are no components of comprehensive loss which are not included in net loss; therefore, a separate statement of comprehensive loss has not been presented.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications to 2019 balances were made to conform to the current period presentation in the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity (deficit), and consolidated statement of cash flows.

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 shares and common stock. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions, and those differences could be material to the 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 of the Company’s revenue is generated in the United States.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, 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 exceed the insured limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Restricted cash as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 includes a $3,000 minimum cash balance required by the Company’s senior secured lender. As of December 31, 2020, the restricted cash balance in current assets also includes $8,407 related to the Paycheck Protection Program Loan held in escrow with a commercial bank (see Note 6).

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


	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Cash and cash equivalents	$	196,046	$	4,179
Restricted cash - current		11,407		—
Restricted cash - non-current		—		3,000
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	207,453	$	7,179

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 December 31, 2020 and 2019, was $455 and $188, respectively.

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

Property, Equipment and Software

Property, equipment and software are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:


		Estimated Useful Lives
Software and computer equipment		3 years
Furniture, office equipment and other		3 – 5 years
Internally developed software		2 years
Leasehold improvements		Shorter of useful life or remaining lease term

When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in the consolidated statement of operations in the period of disposition. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are charged to expense in the period incurred.

The Company capitalizes costs incurred in the development of internal use software. The capitalized costs are amortized over the estimated useful life of the software. If capitalized projects are determined to no longer be in use, they are impaired and the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts. The resulting loss on impairment, if any, is included in the consolidated statements of operations in the period of impairment.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company tests goodwill for impairment for each reporting unit on an annual basis, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. The Company has the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if an impairment is more likely than not to have occurred. If the Company can support the conclusion that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company would not need to perform a quantitative impairment test. If the Company cannot support such a conclusion or the Company does not elect to perform the qualitative assessment, the

Company performs a quantitative assessment. If a quantitative goodwill impairment assessment is performed, the Company utilizes a combination of the market and income valuation approaches.

If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. The Company has selected October 1 as the date to perform its annual impairment test. There were no goodwill impairment losses recorded during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Intangible assets consist of acquired customer relationships, trade names, customer portfolios and related assets that are amortized over their estimated useful lives.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property, equipment, software and amortizing intangibles, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If indicators of impairment exist, management identifies the asset group which includes the potentially impaired long-lived asset, at the lowest level at which there are separate, identifiable cash flows. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows for the asset group is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset. Losses due to impairment of long-lived assets totaled $611 and $1,051 during 2020 and 2019, respectively, and are included in product and technology expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Concentration of Credit Risk

No individual customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2020 or 2019. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, no individual customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s total accounts receivable.

As of December 31, 2020, the Company held approximately $206 million of cash with one U.S. commercial bank.

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock Warrants

The Company accounts for its warrants to purchase shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock as liabilities based upon the characteristics and provisions of each instrument. Warrants classified as derivative liabilities and other derivative financial instruments that require separate accounting as liabilities are recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at their fair value on the date of issuance and are revalued on each subsequent balance sheet date until such instruments are exercised or expire, with any changes in the fair value between reporting periods recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. As discussed in Note 1A, all redeemable convertible preferred stock warrants were converted into common stock or canceled immediately prior to the Merger.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

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

Level 2 Observable 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 3 Unobservable 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.

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 careers 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 inspection software platform. 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.

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company’s revenue recognition policy follows guidance from ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which resulted in a $507 adjustment to accumulated deficit.

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 (Software 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.

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 predefined 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 cancelled 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 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’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 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 during the monthly contract term.

Assets Recognized from the Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer

The Company recognizes an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if it expects the benefit of those costs to be longer than one year. The Company has determined that certain costs related to employee sales incentive programs (sales commissions) represent incremental costs of obtaining a contract and therefore should be capitalized. Capitalized costs are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. These deferred commissions are amortized over an estimated period of benefit. The Company elected to apply the practical expedient to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense if the amortization period of the asset would have been one year or less.

The capitalized amounts are recoverable through future revenue from customer contracts. The Company periodically evaluates whether there have been any changes in its business, the market conditions in which it operates or other events which would indicate that its amortization period should be changed or if there are potential indicators of impairment.

Amortization of capitalized costs to obtain revenue contracts is recorded as a component of selling and marketing expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Sales commissions not subject to capitalization are earned and recorded at the time a customer is invoiced as a component of selling and marketing expenses. As a result, such commissions are expensed at the time of invoicing even though the related revenue may not be fully recognized.

The Company had immaterial activity within the deferred commissions balances for the years ending December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue primarily consists of professional fees and materials under the services model and credit card processing fees, including merchant fees. The Company recognizes cost of revenue as expenses are incurred.

Product and Technology Development

Product and technology development costs primarily include payroll, employee benefits, stock-compensation expense, other headcount-related costs associated with product development, software subscriptions, professional services, and amortization of internally-developed software.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred $2,242 and $3,716 in advertising costs, respectively. Advertising costs are included in selling and marketing expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability method specified by ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future consequences of differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases (temporary differences). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are recovered or settled. Valuation allowances for deferred tax assets are established when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

In addition, ASC 740 provides comprehensive guidance on the recognition and measurement of tax positions in previously filed tax returns or positions expected to be taken in future tax returns. The benefit from an uncertain tax position must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold and is measured at the largest amount of benefit greater than 50% determined by cumulative probability of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the taxing authority. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties expense, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company issues stock-based compensation to employees and nonemployees in the form of stock options and restricted stock awards. The fair value of stock options is based on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The awards are accounted for by recognizing the fair value of the related award over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The awards are generally expensed on a straight-line basis, except for awards with performance or market conditions which are expensed on a graded vesting basis. Forfeitures are accounted for when they occur. The fair value of restricted stock awards is determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The value of market based restricted stock units is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model that utilizes significant assumptions, including volatility, that determine the probability of satisfying the market condition stipulated in the award to calculate the fair value of the award.

Warrants

Upon completion of the Merger with PTAC on December 23, 2020, the Company assumed 8,625,000 public warrants and 5,700,000 private warrants to purchase an aggregate 14,325,000 shares of common stock, which were outstanding as of December 31, 2020. 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 five-years after the Merger.

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms. For warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For warrants that do not meet all the

criteria for equity classification, the warrants are recorded as a liability at their initial fair value, and then are remeasured as of each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the liability for warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statement of operations in the period in which the change occurred. The fair value of the Private Warrants is estimated at period-end using a Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The use of the Black-Scholes model requires significant estimates including an estimate of the expected volatility. Our Public Warrants meet the criteria for equity classification and accordingly, are reported as component of stockholders’ equity while our Private Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity classification and are thus classified as a liability.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for business acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting and records any identifiable definite-lived intangible assets separate from goodwill. Intangible assets are recorded at their fair value based on estimates as of the date of acquisition. Goodwill is recorded as the residual amount of the purchase price consideration less the fair value assigned to the individual identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition. The Company allocates the purchase price of the acquisition to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimates of the fair value at the dates of the acquisitions. Contingent consideration, which represents an obligation of the Company to make additional payments or equity interests to the former owner as part of the purchase price if specified future events occur or conditions are met, is accounted for at the acquisition date fair value either as a liability or as equity depending on the terms of the acquisition agreement.

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.
