Exhibit 99.2 - Financial Statements and Exhibits

Pro forma financial information
The following supplemental pro forma information is presented for informational purposes only, to provide an understanding of the Company’s historical financial results as adjusted for the disposition of Total Security. This pro forma financial information should not be considered a substitute for the actual historical financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as presented in the Company’s filings on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information disclosed in this report is for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of results of operations that would have been achieved had the pro forma events taken place on the dates indicated, or our future consolidated results of operations.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023 presents our condensed consolidated financial position giving pro forma effect to the disposition of Total Security as if it had occurred on September 30, 2023. An unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was omitted because no pro forma adjustments are material and Total Security was previously classified as a discontinued operation in the Company’s historical condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

The Company consummated a business combination, which resulted in the acquisition of S1 Holdco and Total Security on January 27, 2022 (the “Merger”). The consolidated financial statements for the periods on or before January 26, 2022 reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of S1 Holdco and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the Merger, referred to as the “Predecessor” and periods beginning on or after January 27, 2022 reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as a result of the Merger, referred to as the “Successor”. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for the Successor period January 27, 2022 through December 31, 2022 presents the Company’s operations giving pro forma effect to the disposition of Total Security as if it had occurred on January 27, 2022. The Predecessor period from January 1, 2022 through January 26, 2022 was not presented as Total Security was not acquired by the Company until January 27, 2022.

These pro forma financial statements should be read in connection with the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which were included in the Form 10-K filed on June 6, 2023, and the Company’s historical consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which were included in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on November 9, 2023.

The pro forma adjustments are based on currently available information, estimates and assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable in order to reflect, on a pro forma basis, the impact of the disposition of Total Security on our historical financial information.
