Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Porch Group, Inc. 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 Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2022. The information as of December 31, 2021, included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (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 of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the periods and dates presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022, or any other interim period or future year.
Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss consists of adjustments related to unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications to previously reported 2021 balances were made to conform to the current period presentation in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, these estimates, which include, but are not limited

to, impairment losses on intangible assets and goodwill, estimated variable consideration for services performed, estimated lifetime value of insurance agency commission revenue, current estimate for credit losses, depreciable lives for property and equipment, the valuation of and useful lives for acquired intangible assets, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, assumptions used in stock-based compensation expense, unpaid losses for insurance claims and loss adjustment expenses, contingent consideration, earnout liabilities and private warrant liabilities, are evaluated by management. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates, judgments, and assumptions.
Concentrations
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash, money market accounts on deposit with financial institutions, money market funds, certificates of deposit and fixed-maturity securities, as well as receivable balance in the course of collection.
The Company’s insurance carrier subsidiary has exposure and remains liable in the event of insolvency of its primary reinsurers. Management and its reinsurance intermediary regularly assess the credit quality and ratings of its reinsurer counterparties.
Substantially all of the Company’s insurance-related revenues in the Insurance segment are derived from customers in Texas (which represent approximately
No individual customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s total revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, or 2021. As of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, no individual customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s total accounts receivable.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company held approximately $
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 equivalents as of September 30, 2022 includes $

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 creditworthiness 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 September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, was $
Long-term insurance commissions receivable balance consists of the estimated commissions from policy renewals expected to be collected. The Company records the amount of renewal insurance commissions expected to be collected in the next twelve months as current accounts receivable.
Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs
The Company capitalizes deferred policy acquisitions costs (“DAC”) which consist primarily of commissions, premium taxes and policy underwriting and production expenses that are directly related to the successful acquisition by the Company’s insurance subsidiary of new or renewal insurance contracts. DAC are amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the terms of the policies to which they relate, which is generally one year. The amortization of DAC is included in sales and marketing expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. DAC is also reduced by ceding commissions paid by reinsurance companies which represent recoveries of acquisition costs. DAC is periodically reviewed for recoverability and adjusted if necessary. Future investment income is considered in determining the recoverability of DAC. As of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, DAC of $

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value, as defined by the accounting standards, represents the amount at which an asset or liability would be transferred in a current orderly transaction between willing market participants. Emphasis is placed on observable inputs being used to assess fair value. To reflect this approach, the standards require a three-tiered fair value hierarchy be applied based on the nature of the inputs used when measuring fair value. The three hierarchical levels of inputs are 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 quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. This may include active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not highly active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; and |
Level 3 | Unobservable inputs that are arrived at by means other than current observable market activity. |
The level of the least observable significant input used in assessing the fair value 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 requires the use of judgment specific to the asset or liability.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this update require an entity (acquirer) to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. Under current GAAP, an acquirer generally recognizes such items at fair value on the acquisition date. The amendments of this ASU do not affect the accounting for other assets or liabilities that may arise from revenue contracts with customers in accordance with Topic 606. The amendments of this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods in those fiscal years. The ASU clarifies that early adoption of the amendments is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. An entity that early adopts in an interim period should apply the amendments (1) retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs on or after the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period of early application and (2) prospectively to all business combinations that occur on or after the date of initial application. The Company early adopted this ASU as of January 1, 2022, and will apply the guidance prospectively for business combinations that occur after the adoption date. Therefore, the adoption will have no impact to the existing consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, and statements of cash flows.
2. Revenue
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company generates revenue in its Vertical Software segment from (1) software and service subscription fees received for continued access to and transactions processed using owned software platforms by individual contractors, small business service providers and large enterprise service providers, (2) move-related transactions for a variety of services when end customers are connected with service providers primarily related to moving or settling into a new home, and (3) post-move transactions for the delivery of leads to service providers who primarily support the continued maintenance of the home.
The revenue generated by the Company’s Insurance segment is primarily from the sale of its own written insurance and warranty policies or third-party policies via its agency. This revenue includes insurance and warranty premiums earned over the life of the policy, reinsurance profit share, policy fees, commissions earned at the time it is put in force or ceded.

Other-than-temporary Impairment
The Company regularly reviews its individual investment securities for other-than-temporarily impairment. The Company considers various factors in determining whether each individual security is other-than-temporarily impaired, including:
- | the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events that may affect its operations or earnings; |
- | the extent to which the market value of the security has been below its cost or amortized cost; |
- | general market conditions and industry or sector-specific factors; |
- | nonpayment by the issuer of its contractually obligated interest and principal payments; and |
- | the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of costs. |

The Company believes there were no fundamental issues such as credit losses or other factors with respect to any of its available-for-sale securities. The unrealized losses on investments in fixed-maturity securities were caused primarily by interest rate changes. It is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than par value of the investments. Because the declines in fair value are attributable to changes in interest rates or market conditions and not credit quality, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold its available-for-sale investments until a market price recovery or maturity, the Company does not consider any of its investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2022.

Financial Assets
Money market mutual funds are valued at the closing price reported by the fund sponsor from an actively traded exchange. As the funds are generally maintained at a net asset value which does not fluctuate, cost approximates fair value. These are included as a Level 1 measurement in the table above. The fair values for available-for-sale fixed-maturity securities are based upon prices provided by an independent pricing service. The Company has reviewed these prices for reasonableness and has not adjusted any prices received from the independent provider. Level 2 securities represent assets whose fair value is determined using observable market information such as previous day trade prices,

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We test our long-lived asset groups when changes in circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable. Events that trigger a test for recoverability include a significant decrease in the market price for a long-lived asset, significant negative industry or economic trends, an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition, a current-period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset or a sustained decrease in share price. When a triggering event occurs, a test for recoverability is performed, comparing projected undiscounted future cash flows to the carrying value of the asset group. If the test for recoverability identifies a possible impairment, the asset group’s fair value is measured relying primarily on a discounted cash flow method. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset group excess its estimated fair value.
We estimate the fair value of an asset group using the income approach. Such fair value measurements are based predominately on Level 3 inputs. Inherent in our development of cash flow projections are assumptions and estimates derived from a review of our operating results, business plan forecasts, expected growth rates, and cost of capital, similar to those a market participant would use to assess fair value. We also make certain assumptions about future economic conditions and other data. Many of these factors used in assessing fair value are outside the control of management and these assumptions and estimates may change in future periods.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, management identified various qualitative factors that collectively indicated that the Company had trigger events including a sustained decrease in stock price, increased costs due to inflationary pressures, and a deterioration of the macroeconomic environment in the housing and real estate industry. The Company used a discounted cash flows method to determine that the estimated fair value of certain asset groups was less than their carrying values, which resulted in impairment charges of $

Impairment of Goodwill
We test goodwill for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist. We assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Factors that indicate the fair value of a reporting unit may be less than its carrying amount include industry and market considerations such as a deterioration in the economic environment or a decline in market-dependent multiples or metrics, overall financial performance such as negative or declining cash flows or a decline in actual or planned revenue or earnings, increased cost factors that have a negative effect on earnings and cash flows, or a sustained decrease in share price. The process for evaluating potential impairment of goodwill is highly subjective and requires significant judgment. If factors indicate that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, we perform a quantitative assessment and the fair value of the reporting unit is estimated by using a combination of market approaches based on peer performance and discounted cash flow methodologies. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss equal to the excess is recorded.
Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions to evaluate the impact of operating and macroeconomic changes on each reporting unit. The fair value of each reporting unit was estimated using a combination of a discounted cash flow methodology and the market valuation approach using publicly traded company multiples in similar businesses. This analysis requires significant judgments, including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internally developed forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, estimation of the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital, which is risk-adjusted to reflect the specific risk profile of the reporting unit being tested. The weighted average cost of capital used in our most recent impairment test was risk-adjusted to reflect the specific risk profile of the reporting units and ranged from
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, management identified various qualitative factors that collectively, indicated that the Company had triggering events, including a sustained decrease in stock price, increased costs due to inflationary pressures, and a deterioration of the macroeconomic environment in the housing and real estate industry. The Company performed a valuation of both the Vertical Software and Insurance reporting units using a combination of market approaches based on peer performance and discounted cash flow or dividend discount model methodologies. Given the results of the quantitative assessment, the Company determined that the Insurance reporting unit’s goodwill was impaired.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded impairment charges of $

12. Commitments and Contingencies
Acquisition Commitments
On September 2, 2021, Porch.com, Inc. (“Buyer”), a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Covéa Coopérations S.A., a French société anonyme (“Seller”), to acquire all of the shares of GMF Financial Services Corporation (“GMFF”), which owns all of the issued and outstanding stock of Civil Service Employees Insurance Company, CSE Safeguard Insurance Company, CSE Insurance Services, Inc. and CSE Group Services Company, a California-based personal lines insurer focused on property and auto, (collectively, “CSE”), for a purchase price of $
Litigation
From time to time the Company is or may become subject to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings initiated by users, other entities, or regulatory bodies. Estimated liabilities are recorded when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In many instances, the Company is unable to determine whether a loss is probable or to reasonably estimate the amount of such a loss and, therefore, the potential future losses arising from a matter may differ from the amount of estimated liabilities the Company has recorded in the financial statements covering these matters. The Company reviews its estimates periodically and makes adjustments to reflect negotiations, estimated settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter.
Cases under Telephone Consumer Protection Act
Porch and/or an acquired entity, GoSmith.com, are party to twelve legal proceedings alleging violations of the automated calling and/or Do Not Call restrictions of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991. Some of these actions allege related state law claims. The proceedings were commenced as mass tort action by a single plaintiffs’ law firm in December 2019 and April/May 2020 in federal district courts throughout the United States. One of the actions was dismissed with prejudice and is on appeal before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. On October 12, 2022, in a split decision, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed. On October 26, 2022, Defendants petitioned for rehearing/en banc review. The matter is still on appeal. The remainder have been consolidated in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington, where Porch resides. That case is stayed pending the outcome of the appeal. Plaintiffs seek actual, statutory, and/or treble damages, injunctive relief, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
These actions are at an early stage in the litigation process. It is not possible to determine the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome of these disputes, although it is reasonably possible that the outcome of these actions may be unfavorable. Further, it is not possible to estimate the range or amount of potential loss (if the outcome should be unfavorable). Porch intends to contest these cases vigorously.
Kandela, LLC v Porch.com, Inc.
In May 2020, the former owners of Kandela, LLC filed complaints against Porch in the Superior Court of the State of California, alleging a breach of contract related to the terms and achievement of an earnout agreement related to the acquisition of the Kandela business and related fraudulent inducement claims. Claimants sought to recover compensatory damages based on an asset purchase agreement entered into with Porch and related employment agreements. Claimants also sought punitive damages, attorney’s fees and costs. Certain claimants settled their claims, and this settlement is within the range of the estimated accrual. Arbitration of the remaining claims occurred in March

2022. In July 2022, the Arbitrator issued his Final Award finding no merit to any of the claims asserted by claimant Kandela, LLC and determined Porch to be the prevailing party on all counts. The Arbitrator also awarded Porch and its insurers legal fees and costs in the amount of $
Putative Wage and Hours Class Action Proceeding
A former employee of HireAHelper™ filed a complaint in San Diego County Superior Court in November 2020, asserting putative class action claims for failure to pay overtime, failure to pay compensation at the time of separation and unfair business practices in violation of California law. HireAHelper™ was served with the complaint in December 2020 and on January 28, 2021, defendants removed the case to the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. The plaintiff seeks to represent all current and former non-exempt employees of HireAHelper™ and Porch (prior to the December 23, 2020 merger) and Porch’s other affiliated companies in the State of California during the relevant time period. Plaintiffs seek damages for unpaid wages, liquidated damages, penalties, attorneys’ fees and costs for which, Porch has recorded an estimated accrual for a contingent loss based on information currently known. The parties recently attended mediation in an effort to resolve the matter. The mediation was successful, and a deal was reached. The parties have executed the long form settlement agreement and obtained final approval of the settlement from the court on August 11, 2022. Porch paid the individual settlement in September 2022, and Plaintiff’s individual claims were dismissed and released. Porch also funded the class action settlement in September 2022 and the settlement payments to the class were distributed in October 2022. The settlement is now final, and the class action release runs through April 25, 2022. The settlement checks expire in 180 days, at which point the case will be closed.
Other
In addition, in the ordinary course of business, Porch Group and its subsidiaries are (or may become) parties to litigation involving property, personal injury, contract, intellectual property and other claims, as well as stockholder derivative actions, class action lawsuits and other matters. The amounts that may be recovered in such matters may be subject to insurance coverage. Although the results of legal proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, neither Porch Group nor any of its subsidiaries is currently a party to any legal proceedings the outcome of which, the Company believes, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations.

April 1, 2022 Acquisition of Residential Warranty Services (“RWS”)
On April 1, 2022, the Company entered into a stock and membership interest purchase agreement with Residential Warranty Services (“RWS”) to acquire its home warranty and inspection software and services businesses. On this date, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of RWS’ operations except for those in Florida and California. The aggregate consideration, subject to certain closing adjustments, for the completed acquisitions was $
The acquisitions of the Florida and California operations are subject to certain regulatory and other approvals and are expected to close in the second half of 2022 or as soon as practicable thereafter. The Company expects to pay approximately $
The purpose of the acquisitions is to expand the scope and nature of Porch’s service offerings, add additional team members with important skillsets, and realize synergies. Goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes and is subject to further adjustment pending the closing of the acquisition of the remaining RWS operations in Florida and California. The Company will assign the goodwill to reporting units, which will be determined pending completion of the remaining acquisitions.

15. Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities.
Under the two-class method, basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders adjusts basic earnings per share for the potentially dilutive impact of stock options, RSUs, PRSUs, RSAs, convertible notes, earnout shares and warrants. As the Company has reported losses for all periods presented, all potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive and accordingly, basic net loss per share equals diluted net loss per share.
The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss attributable per share to common stockholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

Business Overview
Porch Group is a vertical software platform for the home, providing software and services to over 30,900 home services companies, such as home inspectors, mortgage companies and loan officers, title companies, moving companies, real estate agencies, utility companies, roofers and others, helping these service providers grow their business and improve their customer experience. The Company provides software and services to home services companies and, through these relationships, gains unique and early access to homebuyers and homeowners, assists homebuyers and homeowners with critical services such as insurance and moving, and, in turn, the Company’s platform drives demand for other services from such companies as part of the value proposition. Porch has three types of customers: (1) home services companies, such as home inspectors, mortgage companies, and loan officers and title companies, for whom Porch provides software and services and who pay recurring SaaS fees and increasingly provide introductions to homebuyers and homeowners; (2) consumers, such as homebuyers and homeowners, whom Porch assists with the comparison and provision of various critical home services, such as insurance, moving, security, TV/Internet, and home repair and improvement; and (3) service providers, such as insurance carriers, moving companies, security companies, title companies, mortgage companies and TV/Internet providers, who pay for new customer sign-ups.
The Company sells software and services to companies using a variety of sales and marketing tactics, including teams of inside sales representatives organized by vertical market who engage directly with companies, and enterprise sales teams that target the large named accounts in each of the vertical markets. These teams are supported by various typical software marketing tactics, including digital, in-person (such as trade shows and other events) and content marketing.
The Company’s Insurance segment offers various forms of homeowner insurance policies through its own insurance carrier and certain homeowner and auto insurance policies through its licensed insurance agency. The Insurance segment also includes home warranty service revenue.
For consumers, Porch largely relies on our unique and proprietary relationships with over 30,900 companies using the Company’s software to provide the company with end customer access and introductions. The Company then utilizes technology, lifecycle marketing and teams in lower cost locations to operate as a Moving Concierge to assist these consumers with services. The Company has invested in limited direct-to-consumer marketing capabilities, but expects to become more advanced over time with capabilities such as digital and social retargeting.

Recent Developments
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
The Company early adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers on January 1, 2022 and will apply the guidance prospectively for business combinations that occur after the adoption date. The adoption has no impact to the existing unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, and statements of cash flows.
Key Factors Affecting Operating Results
The Company has been implementing its strategy as a vertical software platform for the home, by providing software and services to over 30,900 home services companies, such as home inspectors, moving companies, utility companies, warranty companies, etc. The Company’s Insurance segment continues to grow scale, through both policy count, and geographic expansion. The following are key factors affecting the Company’s operating results in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022:
● | The U.S housing market continues to see impacts from higher interest rates, existing home inventory tightening, and affordability challenges, impacting the Vertical Software segment. For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, existing home sales have declined over 22% on year over year. |
● | The Company’s Insurance division paid out a higher volume of claims from volatile weather events, including Hurricane Ian, during the quarter. Claims costs for these events were driven higher due in part to inflation-related pressures. |
42
● | During the third quarter of 2022, management identified various qualitative factors and macroeconomic trends that collectively indicated that the Company had trigger events resulting in a $39.4 million goodwill impairment at the Company’s Insurance segment, and a $17.7 million impairment of intangible assets for certain intangible assets within the Vertical Software segment. |
● | In April 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Residential Warranty Services (“RWS”) with an aggregate purchase price of $39.0 million. |
● | In 2021, the Company completed several acquisitions with an aggregate purchase price of $346.3 million to acquire companies to expand the scope and nature of the Company's services offerings, add additional team members with important skillsets, and realize synergies. These acquisitions included V12 Data (acquired in January 2021), HOA (acquired in April 2021), Rynoh (acquired in May 2021), AHP (acquired in September 2021) and Floify (acquired in October 2021). For a complete discussion of 2021 acquisitions, refer to Item 8 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, as filed on March 16, 2022 (the “Annual Report on Form 10-K”). |
● | Continued investment in growing and expanding the Company’s position in the home inspection industry including through core enterprise resource planning and customer relationship management software offered by Inspection Support Network LLC. |
● | Continued investment in growing and expanding the Company’s position in providing moving services to consumers as a result of the 2018 acquisition of HireAHelper™, a provider of software and demand for moving companies. |
● | Intentionally building operating leverage in the business by focusing on growing operating expenses at a slower rate than the growth in revenue. Specifically, by increasing economies of scale related to fixed selling costs, Moving Concierge call center operations and product and technology costs. |
● | Ongoing expansion in other software verticals related to the home and related services such as title, warranty and mortgage software. |
● | Investments in consumer experience to drive higher conversion rates, including investments in apps. |
● | Investments in establishing and maintaining controls required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”) and other internal controls across IT and accounting organizations. |
● | Investments in data platforms and leveraging that data in pricing optimization within insurance. |
● | Growth across the insurance business, including geographic expansion. |

Components of Results of Operations
Total Revenue
The Company generates revenue from (1) software and service subscription revenue generated from fees received for providing subscription access to the Company’s software platforms and subscription services across various industries; (2) insurance revenue in the form of commissions from third-party insurance carriers where Porch acts as an independent agent and commissions from reinsurers, insurance and warranty premiums, policy fees and other insurance-related fees generated through its own insurance carrier; (3) move-related service revenue through fees received for connecting homeowners to service providers during time of a move including movers, TV/Internet, warranty, and security monitoring providers and for certain move related services for providing select services directly to the homeowner; (4) post-move related revenue in the form of fees earned from introducing homeowners to home service professionals including handymen, plumbers, electricians, roofers etc., and for certain projects for providing select services directly to the homeowner.
Software and service subscription revenue primarily relates to subscriptions to the Company’s software offerings across its verticals as well as marketing software and services. The Company’s subscription arrangements for this revenue stream 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. Marketing software and services are primarily contractual monthly recurring billings. 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.
The Insurance segment offers various property-related insurance policies through its own risk-bearing carrier and independent agency as well as a risk-bearing home warranty company. Third-party insurance companies pay our agency upfront and renewal commissions for selling their policies, reinsurers pay the Company ceding commissions when premiums are ceded from owned insurance products, and revenues are earned in the form of policy premiums collected from insureds from owned insurance products. The Insurance segment also includes home warranty revenue which mainly consists of premiums paid by warranty customers for the Company’s home warranty products.
Move-related transactions revenue arises when the Company connects service providers with homeowners that meet pre-defined criteria and may be looking for relevant services. Service providers include movers, TV/Internet, warranty, and security monitoring providers. The Company earns revenue when consumers purchase services from third-party providers. For moving products where the Company manages the process of selecting the service provider and setting the price, the Company generally invoices for projects on a fixed fee or time and materials basis.
Post-move-related transaction revenue includes fees earned from introducing consumers to home service providers as well as directly to the homeowner when the Company manages the service. Revenue generated from service providers is recognized at a point in time upon the connection of a homeowner to the service provider. The Company generally invoices for managed services projects on a fixed fee or time and materials basis.
Total Costs and Expenses
Operating expenses
Operating expenses are categorized into five categories:
● | Cost of revenue; |
● | Selling and marketing; |
● | Product and technology; |
44
● | General and administrative; and |
● | Impairment loss on intangible assets and goodwill. |
The categories of operating expenses include both cash expenses and non-cash charges, such as stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are recorded in all operating expense categories, and consist of depreciation from property, equipment and software and intangible assets.
Cost of revenue primarily consists of insurance claims losses and loss adjustment expenses, claims personnel costs, warranty claims, third-party providers for executing moving labor and handyman services when the Company is managing the job, data costs related to marketing campaigns, certain call center costs, credit card processing and merchant fees and operational cost of SaaS businesses.
Selling and marketing expenses primarily consist of payroll, employee benefits and stock-based compensation expense, and other headcount related costs associated with sales efforts directed toward companies and consumers, and deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”) of new and renewal insurance contracts. Also included are any direct costs to acquire customers, such as search engine optimization, marketing costs and affiliate and partner leads.
The Company capitalizes DAC, which consists primarily of commissions, premium taxes, policy underwriting, and production expenses directly related to the successful acquisition by the Company’s insurance subsidiary of new or renewal insurance contracts. DAC are amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the terms of the policies to which they relate, which is generally one year. DAC is also reduced by ceding commissions paid by reinsurance companies which represent recoveries of acquisition costs. DAC is periodically reviewed for recoverability and adjusted if necessary.
Product and technology development costs primarily consist of payroll, employee benefits, stock-based compensation expense, other headcount-related costs associated with product development, net of costs capitalized as internally developed software. Also included are cloud computing, hosting and other technology costs, software subscriptions, professional services and amortization of internally developed software.
General and administrative expenses primarily consist of expenses associated with functional departments for finance, legal, human resources and executive management. The primary categories of expenses include payroll, employee benefits, stock-based compensation expense and other headcount related costs, rent for office space, legal and professional fees, taxes, licenses and regulatory fees, merger and acquisition transaction costs, and other administrative costs.
Impairment loss on intangible assets and goodwill results from circumstances when the fair value of a reporting unit or asset group is less than its carrying amount. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are subject to annual impairment assessments. All intangible assets and goodwill are also subject to impairment assessments whenever facts and circumstances indicate that these assets may be impaired. See Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Impairment of Goodwill sections of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates for the description of methods used to determine these impairment losses.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis these estimates, which include, but are not limited to, impairment losses on intangible assets and goodwill, estimated variable consideration for services performed, estimated lifetime value of the insurance agency commissions, current estimate for credit losses, depreciable lives for property and equipment, the valuation of and useful lives for acquired intangible assets, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, assumptions used in stock-based compensation expense, unpaid losses for insurance claims and loss adjustment expenses, contingent consideration, earnout liabilities and private warrant liabilities, all of which are evaluated by management. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates, judgments, and assumptions.
45
At least quarterly, the Company evaluates estimates and assumptions and makes changes accordingly. For information on the Company’s significant accounting policies, see Note 1 in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we identified additional critical accounting estimates related to the impairment of long-lived assets and impairment of goodwill. During the fiscal year, we identified various qualitative factors with respect to long-lived assets and goodwill in the Company’s reporting units that collectively indicated that the Company had triggering events including a sustained decrease in stock price, increased costs due to inflationary pressures, and a deterioration of the macroeconomic environment in the housing and real estate industry.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We test our long-lived asset groups when changes in circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable. Events that trigger a test for recoverability include a significant decrease in the market price for a long-lived asset, significant negative industry or economic trends, an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of a long-live asset, a current-period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset or a sustained decrease in share price. When a triggering event occurs, a test for recoverability is performed, comparing projected undiscounted future cash flows to the carrying value of the asset group. If the test for recoverability identifies a possible impairment, the asset group’s fair value is measured relying primarily on a discounted cash flow method. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset group excess its estimated fair value. When an impairment loss is recognized for assets to be held and used, the adjusted carrying amounts for those assets are depreciated over their remaining useful life.
We evaluate long-lived assets at the lowest level at which independent cash flows can be identified, which is dependent on the strategy and expected future use of our long-lived assets. We evaluate corporate assets or other long-lived assets that are not asset group-specific at the consolidated level.
We estimate the fair value of an asset group using the income approach. The income approach uses cash flow projections. Inherent in our development of cash flow projections are assumptions and estimates derived from a review of our operating results, business plan forecasts, expected growth rates, and cost of capital, similar to those a market participant would use to assess fair value. We also make certain assumptions about future economic conditions and other data. Many of these factors used in assessing fair value are outside the control of management and these assumptions and estimates may change in future periods.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded impairment charges of $17.7 million, related to its Vertical Software segment.
Impairment of Goodwill
We test goodwill for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist. We assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Factors that indicate the fair value of a reporting unit may be less than its carrying amount include industry and market considerations such as a deterioration in the economic environment or a decline in market-dependent multiples or metrics, overall financial performance such as negative or declining cash flows or a decline in actual or planned revenue or earnings, increased cost factors that have a negative effect on earnings and cash flows, or a sustained decrease in share price. The process for evaluating potential impairment of goodwill is highly subjective and requires significant judgment. If factors indicate that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, we perform a quantitative assessment and the fair value of the reporting unit is estimated by using a combination of market approaches based on peer performance and discounted cash flow methodologies. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss equal to the excess is recorded.
Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions to evaluate the impact of operating and macroeconomic changes on each reporting unit. The fair value
46
of each reporting unit was estimated using a combination of a discounted cash flow methodology and the market valuation approach using publicly traded company multiples in similar businesses. This analysis requires significant judgments, including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internally developed forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, estimation of the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital, which is risk-adjusted to reflect the specific risk profile of the reporting unit being tested. The weighted average cost of capital used in our most recent impairment test was risk-adjusted to reflect the specific risk profile of the reporting units and ranged from 17% to 20%.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, management identified various qualitative factors that collectively, indicated that the Company had triggering events, including a sustained decrease in stock price, increased costs due to inflationary pressures, and a deterioration of the macroeconomic environment in the housing and real estate industry. The Company performed a valuation of both the Vertical Software and Insurance reporting units using a combination of market approaches based on peer performance and discounted cash flow or dividend discount model methodologies. Given the results of the quantitative assessment, the Company determined that the Insurance reporting unit’s goodwill was impaired.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded impairment charges of $39.4 million, related to its Insurance segment.
There were no other changes to the critical accounting policies discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. For a complete discussion of the Company’s Annual Report.

Revenue
Three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to three months ended September 30, 2021:
Total revenue increased by $12.6 million, or 20%, from $62.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $75.4 million in the same period in 2022. The increase in revenue in 2022 is primarily driven by the 2022 and 2021 acquisitions, organic growth, and accelerated growth of these acquisitions. In April 2022, the Company acquired RWS for an aggregate purchase price of $39.0 million. During 2021, the Company acquired a number of businesses with an aggregate purchase price of $346.3 million as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. These acquisitions included V12 Data (acquired in January 2021), HOA (acquired in April 2021), Rynoh (acquired in May 2021), AHP (acquired in September 2021) and Floify (acquired in October 2021). Floify and RWS were not owned by the Company during the three months ended September 30, 2021, and, therefore no revenue was recognized from these businesses during that period.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company corrected an immaterial error related to revenue from claims fees and contra claims expense, which was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021. This error impacted revenue

and cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and September 30, 2021. The correction did not impact operating loss or net loss in these periods.

Nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to nine months ended September 30, 2021:
Total revenue increased by $67.8 million, or 48% from $140.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, to $208.7 million in the same period in 2022. During 2022 and 2021, the Company acquired a number of businesses with an aggregate purchase price of $346.3 million as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. These acquisitions included V12 Data (acquired in January 2021), HOA (acquired in April 2021), Rynoh (acquired in May 2021), AHP (acquired in September 2021), Floify (acquired in October 2021) and RWS (acquired in April 2022). Thus, the increase in revenue in 2022 is primarily driven by the 2022 and 2021 acquisitions, accelerated growth after acquisition and organic growth.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company corrected an immaterial error related to revenue from claims fees and contra claims expense, which was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021. This error impacted revenue and cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021. The correction did not impact operating loss or net loss in these periods. See the table above for the impact of the correction by quarter.
Cost of Revenue
Three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to three months ended September 30, 2021:
Cost of revenue increased by $14.1 million, or 74%, from $19.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $33.3 million in the same period in 2022. The increase in the cost of revenue was primarily attributable to the 2022 and 2021 acquisitions of RWS (acquired in April 2022), V12 Data (acquired in January 2021), HOA (acquired in April 2021), Rynoh (acquired in May 2021), AHP (acquired in September 2021), and Floify (acquired in October 2021). Floify and RWS was not owned by the Company during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and, therefore, no cost of revenue was recognized from this business during that period. Thus, the increase in cost of revenue in 2022 is primarily driven by the 2022 and 2021 acquisitions. Higher loss and loss adjustment expense at the Company’s insurance segment, due primarily to a higher number of claims paid due to weather events, including Hurricane Ian, during the quarter. Claims costs for these events were driven higher due in part to inflation-related pressures. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue represented 44% of revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared with 31% in the same period in 2021. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue is higher due to the mix shift in business with insurance as the claims and loss and loss adjustment expense is recorded in cost of revenue.
Nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to nine months ended September 30, 2021:
Cost of revenue increased by $38.4 million, or 86% from $44.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, to $83 million in the same period in 2022. The increase in the cost of revenue was primarily attributable to the 2022 and 2021 acquisitions of RWS (acquired in April 2022),V12 Data (acquired in January 2021), HOA (acquired in April 2021), Rynoh (acquired in May 2021), AHP (acquired in September 2021), Floify (acquired in October 2021). Thus, the increase in cost of revenue in 2022 is primarily driven by the 2022 and 2021 acquisitions. Higher loss and loss adjustment expense at the Company’s insurance segment, due primarily to a higher number of claims paid due to volatile non-catastrophe summer weather events, including Hurricane Ian, during the quarter. Claims costs for these events were driven higher due in part to inflation-related pressures. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue represented 40% of
49
revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared with 32% in the same period in 2021. Cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue is higher due to the mix shift in business with insurance as the claims and loss and loss adjustment expense is recorded in cost of revenue.
Selling and marketing
Three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to three months ended September 30, 2021:
Selling and marketing expenses increased by $7.4 million, or 32%, from $22.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $30.2 million in the same period in 2022. The increase is due to $7.7 million related to the selling and marketing costs of the acquired businesses comprised of RWS, Floify, AHP. As a percentage of revenue, selling and marketing expenses represented 40% of revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared with 36% in the same period in 2021.
Nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to nine months ended September 30, 2021:
Selling and marketing expenses increased by $24.2 million, or 40% from $60.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, to $84.8 million in the same period in 2022. The increase is due to $21.6 million related to the selling and marketing costs of the acquired businesses comprised of RWS, Floify and AHP, Rynoh, HOA. Growth in the insurance and software and subscription businesses further contributed to the increase. This was partially offset by a decrease of $1.3 million in stock-based compensation expenses. As a percentage of revenue, selling and marketing expenses represented 41% of revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared with 43% in the same period in 2021. The improvement in selling and marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue is due to the growing economies of scale across the Company’s Vertical Software and Insurance segments.
Product and technology
Three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to three months ended September 30, 2021:
Product and technology expenses increased by $3.1 million, or 28%, from $11.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $14.4 million in the same period in 2022. The increase is mainly due to $4.9 million increase in product and technology costs of the acquired businesses, most notably Floify. This was partially offset by $0.5 million lower stock-based compensation expense. As a percentage of revenue, product and technology expenses represented 19% of revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared with 18% in the same period in 2021.
Nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to nine months ended September 30, 2021:
Product and technology expenses increased by $10.3 million, or 30% from $34.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, to $44.4 million in the same period in 2022. The increase is mainly due to $13.6 million increase in product and technology costs of the acquired businesses, most notably HOA, Floify, Rynoh, RWS and AHP. This was partially offset by $1.6 million lower stock-based compensation expense. As a percentage of revenue, product and technology expenses represented 21% of revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared with 24% in the same period in 2021. The improvement in product and technology expenses as a percentage of revenue is due to the growing economies of scale in the overall business.
General and administrative
Three months ended September 30, 2022,compared to three months ended September 30, 2021:
General and administrative expenses increased by $3.2 million, or 15%, from $22 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $25.3 million in the same period in 2022, primarily due to higher general and administrative expenses of Floify and RWS, and additional investment in corporate resources and systems, as well as SOX implementation.
50
Also, stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $0.6 million lower than in the same period in 2021.
Nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to nine months ended September 30, 2021:
General and administrative expenses increased by $13.9 million, or 21% from $66.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, to $80.4 million in the same period in 2022. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses included $9.5 million related to the HOA, RWS, AHP, Floify and Rynoh. The increase is also due to costs related to increased hiring of corporate administrative resources, audit and accounting fees, as well as consulting fees related to the ongoing SOX requirements. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, there was a loss on revaluation of contingent consideration of $5.3 million as compared to a gain of $0.4 million during the same period in 2021. This was offset by stock-based compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was $5.8 million lower than in the same period in 2021.
Impairment loss on intangible assets and goodwill
Three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to three months ended September 30, 2021:

Interest expense increased by $0.3 million, or 12%, from $1.9 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $2.1 million in the same period in 2022. This was primarily due to issuance of $425 million of Convertible Senior Notes in September 2021, that in part was used to pay off the $42.1 million of Senior Secured Term Loans that were outstanding at June 30, 2021. The total level of interest-bearing debt balance was $425.6 million at January 1, 2022 and $50.8 million at January 1, 2021 and this higher outstanding debt balance was the primary reason for the increased interest expense.
Nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2021:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This Quarterly Report includes non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA (loss), Adjusted EBITDA (loss) as a percent of revenue, and average revenue per monetized service.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA (loss) as net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense, net, income taxes, other expenses, net, depreciation and amortization, impairment loss on intangible assets and goodwill, non-cash long- losses and impairment of property, equipment and software, stock-based compensation expense and acquisition-related impacts, amortization of intangible assets, gains (losses) recognized on changes in the value of contingent consideration arrangements, if any, gain or loss on divestures and certain transaction costs. Adjusted EBITDA (loss) as a percent of revenue is defined as Adjusted EBITDA (loss) divided by GAAP total revenue. Average revenue per monetized services in quarter is the average revenue generated per monetized service performed in a quarterly period. When calculating average revenue per monetized service in a quarter, average revenue is defined as total quarterly service transaction revenues generated from monetized services.
54
Company management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental measures of the Company’s operating and financial performance, for internal budgeting and forecasting purposes, to evaluate financial and strategic planning matters, and to establish certain performance goals for incentive programs. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with useful information to evaluate the Company’s operating and financial performance and trends and in comparing Porch’s financial results with competitors, other similar companies and companies across different industries, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. However, the Company’s definitions and methodology in calculating these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to those used by other companies. In addition, the Company may modify the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures in the future, and any such modification may be material.
You should not consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation, as a substitute to or superior to financial performance measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude specified income and expenses, some of which may be significant or material, that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company may also incur future income or expenses similar to those excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures, and the presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures reflect the exercise of management judgment about which income and expense are included or excluded in determining these non-GAAP financial measures.
See the reconciliation tables below for more details regarding these non-GAAP financial measures, including the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to three months ended September 30, 2021:
Revenue less cost of revenue decreased by $1.5 million, or 3.5% from $43.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to $42.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022. During 2022, the Company acquired RWS. During 2021, the Company acquired a number of businesses, including Rynoh (acquired in May 2021), AHP (acquired in September 2021) and Floify (acquired in October 2021). Floify and RWS were not owned by the Company during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and, therefore, no cost of revenue was recognized from these businesses during that period. The decreased revenue less cost of revenue in 2022 is primarily driven by higher loss and loss adjustment expense related to the insurance business.
55
Nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2021:
Revenue less cost of revenue increased by $29.4 million, or 30.6% from $96.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 to $125.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. During 2022, the Company acquired RWS. During 2021, the Company acquired a number of businesses with an aggregate purchase price of $346.3 million as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. These acquisitions included V12 Data (acquired in January 2021), HOA (acquired in April 2021), Rynoh (acquired in May 2021), AHP (acquired in September 2021) and Floify (acquired in October 2021). These businesses were not owned by the Company for the entire nine months ended September 30, 2022, therefore, less revenue less cost of revenue was recognized from these businesses during that period. Thus, the increase revenue less cost of revenue in 2022 is primarily driven by the 2022 and 2021 acquisitions, accelerated growth after acquisition and organic growth.

Adjusted EBITDA (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $13 million, a $13.9 million decline from Adjusted EBITDA of $0.9 million for the same period in 2021. Adjusted EBITDA (loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $34.3 million, a $15.7 million decline from Adjusted EBITDA (loss) of $18.6 million for the same period in 2021. During 2022, the Company acquired RWS for an aggregate purchase price of $39.0 million. During 2021, the Company acquired a number of businesses with an aggregate purchase price of $346.3 million as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. These acquisitions included V12 Data (acquired in January 2021), HOA (acquired in April 2021), Rynoh (acquired in May 2021), AHP (acquired in September 2021) and Floify (acquired in October 2021). RWS and Floify were not owned by the Company during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and, therefore, no revenue and Adjusted EBITDA (loss) was recognized from this business during these periods. The decline in Adjusted EBITDA (loss) in 2022 is primarily driven by the macro housing environment affecting both segments, and higher volume of claims paid out by HOA in the second and third quarter of 2022, affecting the Insurance segment. Continued investments in sales and marketing and product and technology related to consumer experience, app build out, data platforms and investments in establishing and maintaining SOX and other internal controls across IT and accounting organizations further impacted Adjusted EBITDA (loss). This decline was partially offset by the impact of the 2022 and 2021 acquisitions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since inception, as a private company, the Company has financed its operations primarily from the sales of redeemable convertible preferred stock and convertible promissory notes, and proceeds from the senior secured term loans. On December 23, 2020, the Company received approximately $269.5 million of aggregate cash proceeds from recapitalization, net of transaction costs, as it began trading publicly.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company drew $15.0 million combined, on HOA’s line of credit and term loan facility. See Note 7.
During 2021, the Company completed a private offering of $425 million aggregate principal amounts of convertible debt maturing in 2026, and raised $126.7 million and $4.3 million from exercise of public warrants and stock options, respectively.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $260.2 million and $16.8 million of restricted cash, respectively. Restricted cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022 includes $5.1 million held by the Company’s captive insurance company as a collateral for the benefit of HOA, $0.5 million held in certificates of deposits and money market mutual funds pledged to the Department of Insurance in certain states as a condition of its Certificate of Authority for the purpose of meeting obligations to policyholders and creditors, $8.3 million in funds held for the payment of possible warranty claims as required under regulatory guidelines in twenty five states, and $2.9 million related to acquisition indemnifications.
The Company has incurred net losses since its inception, and has an accumulated deficit at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 totaling $542.7 million and $424.1 million, respectively.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $440.5 million and $425.6 million aggregate principal amount outstanding in convertible notes, promissory notes, and line of credit and term loan facilities, respectively.
Based on the Company’s current operating and growth plan, management believes cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2022, are sufficient to finance the Company’s operations, planned capital expenditures, working capital requirements and debt service obligations for at least the next 12 months. As the Company’s operations evolve and continue its growth strategy, including through acquisitions, the Company may elect or need to obtain alternative sources of capital, and it may finance additional liquidity needs in the future through one or more equity or debt financings. The Company may not be able to obtain equity or additional debt financing in the future when needed or, if available, the terms may not be satisfactory to the Company or could be dilutive to its stockholders.
Porch Group, Inc. is a holding company that transacts a majority of its business through operating subsidiaries, including insurance subsidiaries. Consequently, the Company’s ability to pay dividends and expenses is largely dependent on dividends or other distributions from its subsidiaries. The Company’s insurance company subsidiaries are highly regulated and are restricted by statute as to the amount of dividends they may pay without the prior approval of their respective regulatory authorities. As of September 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents of $77.7 million and investments held by these companies was $62.6 million.
The Company may, at any time and from time to time, seek to retire or purchase its outstanding debt or equity through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity or debt, in open-market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will be upon such terms and at such prices as we may determine, and will depend on prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Investing Cash Flows
Net cash used in investing activities was $46.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Net cash used in investing activities is primarily related to acquisitions, net of cash acquired of $37.0 million, purchases of investments of $19.4 million, investments in developing internal-use software of $5.8 million, and purchases of property and equipment of $2.0 million.

Financing Cash Flows
Net cash provided by financing activities was $11.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Net cash provided by financing activities is primarily related to proceeds from debt issuance, net of fees of $15.0 million and exercises of stock options of $1.1 million.

offset by shares repurchased to pay income tax withholdings upon vesting of RSUs of $23.8 million and debt repayments of $43.0 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Since the date of incorporation, the Company has not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1 in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for more information about recent accounting pronouncements, the timing of their adoption, and the assessment, to the extent one has been made, of their potential impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is exposed to a variety of market and other risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates, and inflation, as well as risks to the availability of funding sources, hazard events, and specific asset risks.
Interest Rate Risk
The market risk inherent in the Company’s financial instruments and financial position represents the potential loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates. As of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Company has interest-bearing debt of $440.5 million and $425.6 million, respectively. The Company’s 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) have a principal balance of $425 million as of September 30, 2022, have a fixed coupon rate of 75 basis points, and effective interest rate of 1.3%. As such, interest expense on the 2026 Notes will not change if market interest rates increase. Other debt as of September 30, 2022 totaled $15.5 million and is variable-rate.
A 1% increase in interest rates in the Company’s variable rate indebtedness would result in a nominal change in annual interest expense.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s insurance subsidiary has a $62.6 million portfolio of fixed income securities and an unrealized loss of $6.6 million, as described in Note 3 in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. In a rising interest rate environment, the portfolio would result in unrealized losses.
At September 30, 2022, accounts receivable and reinsurance balances due were $37.0 million and $304.0 million, respectively, were not interest-bearing assets and are generally collected in less than 180 days. As such, the Company does not consider these assets to have material interest rate risk.
Inflation Risk
The Company believes its operations have been negatively affected by inflation, in addition to the change in the interest rate environment. General economic factors beyond its control, and changes in the global economic environment, specifically fluctuations in inflation, including the access to credit under terms favorable to the Company, could result in lower revenues, higher costs and decreased margins and earnings in the foreseeable future. While the Company and its management teams take action, wherever possible, to reduce the impact of the effects of inflation, in the case of sustained inflation across several of the markets in which Porch operates, it could become increasingly difficult to effectively mitigate the increases to costs. In addition, the effects of inflation on consumers’ budgets could result in the reduction of consumer spending habits, specifically in the move and post-move markets. If unable to take actions to effectively mitigate the effect of the resulting higher costs, the Company’s profitability and financial position could be materially and adversely impacted.
59
Foreign Currency Risk
There was no material foreign currency risk for nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company’s activities to date have been conducted in the United States.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2022, which is the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, evaluated and reported, as applicable, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures were not effective as of September 30, 2022 due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described in Part II, Item 9A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on March 16, 2022.
Remediation Plan
Porch Group remediation efforts for these material weaknesses have included the following:
● | consolidation of relevant financial systems across internal control framework; |
● | investments to upgrade or replace existing systems which do not have the appropriate infrastructure to meet the requirements of internal control framework; |
● | expanding the available resources at the Company with experience designing and implementing control activities, including information technology general controls and automated controls, through hiring and use of third-party consultants and specialists; |
● | recruiting and hiring additional personnel with the appropriate skills and experience to operate the internal controls required by the nature, pace, and complexity of the business, and |
● | perform ongoing training with control performers to improve documentation that supports effective control activities, including evidence of the completeness and accuracy of information produced by the entity. |
These remediation measures may be time-consuming and costly. In addition, there is no assurance that we will be successful in remediating the material weakness. The Company plans to continue to assess internal controls and procedures and intend to take further action as necessary or appropriate to address any other matters as they are identified.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except for actions taken under the Remediation Plan described above in this Part I, Item 4, there has been no change in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
60
During 2022, the Company continued to take actions on initiatives to improve the internal control environment, which started in 2021. Specifically, we formed an internal working group to detail and implement specific remediation plans for these control deficiencies, engaged with outside consultants to provide advice and assistance, and hired additional personnel to perform and monitor internal control activity.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
As specified above, the Company disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Company management recognizes that any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain judgments and assumptions and cannot provide absolute assurance that its objectives will be met.
61
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
See Note 12 (“Commitments and Contingencies”) in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, which is incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1, for a description of certain litigation and legal proceedings.
In addition, in the ordinary course of business, Porch and its subsidiaries are (or may become) parties to litigation involving property, personal injury, contract, intellectual property and other claims, stockholder derivative actions, class action lawsuits and other matters. The amounts that may be recovered in such matters may be subject to insurance coverage. Although the results of legal proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, neither Porch nor any of its subsidiaries is currently a party to any legal proceedings the outcome of which, we believe, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
As of November 9, 2022, the Company’s risk factors have not materially changed from those described in Part 1, Item 1A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2022.
