Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2023
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
Note 1—Description of Business

Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company consolidates the financial results and reports non-controlling interests representing the economic interests held by other equity holders of subsidiaries that are not 100% owned by the Company. The calculation of non-controlling interests excludes any net income (loss) attributable directly to the Company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company acquired the remaining minority interest shareholders’ outstanding shares in one of its subsidiaries during the three months ended June 30, 2023 for $3,751. As a result, the Company owned 100% of all its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2023.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and related notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
These accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the interim periods indicated. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in the financial statements include revenue recognition, including the determination of gross versus net revenue reporting, allowance for credit losses, stock-based compensation, fair value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of acquired intangible assets and property and equipment, fair value of contingent earn-out considerations, incremental borrowing rates for right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, and tax valuation allowances. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ materially from management’s estimates using different assumptions or under different conditions.
Management considered the potential impacts of ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty due to global events such as the conflicts in Ukraine and Israel, inflation, disruptions in supply chains, recessionary concerns impacting the markets in which the Company operates, and others, on the Company’s critical and significant accounting
estimates. As of the date of issuance of these financial statements, the Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require the Company to update its estimates or judgments or revise the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as a result of such factors. Management’s estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ from estimates and any such differences may be material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies in Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.
Note 3—Acquisitions
Acquisition of In App Video Services UK LTD.
On November 1, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of all outstanding ownership interests of In App Video Services UK LTD. (“In App”), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “In App Acquisition”). Prior to the Acquisition, In App acted as a third-party representative of the Company’s App Growth Platform (“AGP”) segment’s products and services in the United Kingdom (“UK”). The acquisition of In App is part of the Company’s strategy to make investments that provide opportunities to grow market share and increase revenue in important markets and geographies like the UK.
The Company acquired In App for total estimated consideration in the range of $2,250 to $5,500, paid as follows: (1) $2,708 paid in cash at closing, including a working capital adjustment of approximately $460, with $1,000 of that amount held in escrow for one-year and (2) potential annual earn-out payments based on meeting annual revenue targets for the calendar years ended December 31, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025. The annual earn-out payments are up to $250 for the year ended December 31, 2022, and $1,000 for each of the calendar years ended December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025. Also, an incremental earn-out payment will be made for each of the calendar years ended 2023, 2024, and 2025 in an amount equal to 25% of revenue that is more than 150% of that calendar year’s revenue target. The earn out was not achieved for the calendar year ended December 31, 2022. The Company expects to pay approximately $1,100 for the earn out for the calendar year ended December 31, 2023.
On the acquisition date, the Company recorded the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the In App Acquisition, which resulted in the recognition of: (1) current assets, net of cash acquired, of $836, (2) current liabilities of $401, (3) acquisition purchase price liability of $2,738, and (4) goodwill of $4,957.
During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company reassessed the fair value of the purchase price liability based on current forecasts. As a result of this assessment, no additional remeasurement was recorded. As of December 31, 2023, the total remeasurement gain was equal to $372. Changes in the fair value of the earn-out liability subsequent to the acquisition date are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.
Additionally, during the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded a cumulative net measurement period adjustment that decreased goodwill by $65 (see Note 6). The Company made these measurement period adjustments to reflect the release and refund of escrow amounts in relation to the acquisition purchase price adjustment.
Note 4—Fair Value Measurements
Equity securities without readily determinable fair values
During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company purchased certain non-marketable equity securities for total proceeds of $9,138. As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, the carrying value of the Company’s investments in equity securities without readily determinable fair values totaled $17,637 and $8,499, respectively, and is included in “Other non-current assets” in the accompanied consolidated balance sheet. The Company’s investments in these equity securities without readily determinable fair values represents a strategic
investment in one of the largest independent Android application stores.
As the non-marketable equity securities are investments in a privately held company without a readily determinable fair value, the Company elected the measurement alternative to account for these investments. Under the measurement alternative, the carrying value of the non-marketable equity securities are adjusted based on price changes from observable transactions of identical or similar securities of the same issuer or for impairment. Any changes in carrying value are recorded within other income (loss), net in the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations.
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, there were no adjustments to the carrying value of equity securities without readily determinable fair values.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1. Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2. Significant other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3. Significant unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, Level 1 equity securities recorded at fair value were $546 and $0, respectively, and are classified as other non-current assets.
Note 5—Segment Information
Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise for 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. The Company reports its results of operations through the following two segments, each of which represents an operating and reportable segment, as follows:
•On Device Solutions (“ODS”) - This segment generates revenue from the delivery of mobile application media or content to end users with solutions for all participants in the mobile application ecosystem that want to connect with end users and consumers who hold the device. This includes mobile carriers and device OEMs that participate in the app economy, app publishers and developers, and brands and advertising agencies. This segment's product offerings are enabled through relationships with mobile device carriers and OEMs.
•App Growth Platform (“AGP”) - AGP customers are primarily advertisers and publishers, and the segment provides platforms that allow mobile app publishers and developers to monetize their monthly active users via display, native, and video advertising. The AGP platforms allow demand side platforms, advertisers, agencies, and publishers to buy and sell digital ad impressions, primarily through programmatic, real-time bidding auctions and, in some cases, through direct-bought/sold advertiser budgets. The segment also provides brand and performance advertising products to advertisers and agencies.
The Company’s CODM evaluates segment performance and makes resource allocation decisions primarily based on segment net revenue and segment profit, as shown in the segment information summary table below. The Company’s CODM does not allocate other direct costs of revenue, operating expenses, interest and other income (expense), net, or provision for income taxes to these segments for the purpose of evaluating segment performance. Additionally, the Company does not allocate assets to segments for internal reporting purposes as the CODM does not manage the Company’s segments by such metrics.

Impairment of goodwill | | $ | — | | | $ | (147,181) | | | $ | (147,181) | |
Goodwill as of December 31, 2023 | | $ | 80,176 | | | $ | 330,879 | | | $ | 411,055 | |
The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually or upon the occurrence of events or circumstances that indicate they would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. During annual testing as of March 31, 2023, the Company determined that the fair value of both
reporting units was in excess of their carrying value. As a result of this review, the Company did not record an impairment charge in fiscal year 2023.
During the three months ended September 30, 2023, as a result of sustained decline in the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock, increase in interest rates, and the Company’s forecasted operating trends, the Company identified interim indicators of impairment related to the goodwill assigned to the AGP reporting unit. The Company completed an impairment assessment of its goodwill, and as a result of this review, recorded a $147,181 non-deductible, non-cash goodwill impairment charge for the AGP reporting unit for the three months ended September 30, 2023. There was no impairment of goodwill for the ODS reporting unit during the fiscal year.
The fair value of each reporting unit was estimated using a weighted combination of the income approach, which incorporates the use of the discounted cash flow method, and the market approach (the “Guideline Public Company Method”). The Company’s September 30, 2023 testing reflected a 75%/25% allocation between the income and market approaches. The Company believes the 75% weighting to the income approach is appropriate, as it directly reflects its future growth and profitability expectations.
For the three months ended December 31, 2023, no goodwill impairment charges were recorded.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company recorded a purchase price adjustment of $65 associated with the acquisition of In App Video.

All unbilled receivables as of December 31, 2023 are expected to be billed and collected (subject to the allowance for credit losses) within twelve months.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company maintains reserves for current expected credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, current economic trends, and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves.
The Company recorded $1,348 and $2,575 of credit loss expense during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, and $683 and $2,932 of credit loss expense during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, in general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Long-term debt, net of debt issuance costs | | $ | 374,034 | | | $ | 410,522 | |
Revolver
On February 3, 2021, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A. (“BoA”), which provided for a revolving line of credit (the “Revolver”) of up to $100,000 with an accordion feature enabling the Company to increase the total amount up to $200,000.
On April 29, 2021, the Company amended and restated the Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with BoA, as a lender and administrative agent, and a syndicate of other lenders, which provided for a revolving line of credit of up to $400,000. The revolving line of credit matures on April 29, 2026, and contains an accordion feature enabling the Company to increase the total amount of the Revolver by $75,000 plus an amount that would enable the Company to remain in compliance with its consolidated secured net leverage ratio, on such terms as agreed to by the parties. The New Credit Agreement was subsequently amended as follows:
•First Amendment: Increase in the Revolver to $525,000 while retaining the $75,000 accordion feature discussed above, for a total potential revolving line of credit of $600,000 on December 29, 2021.
•Second Amendment: LIBOR was replaced with the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). As a result, borrowings under the New Credit Agreement where the applicable rate was LIBOR will accrue interest at an annual rate equal to SOFR plus between 1.50% and 2.25% beginning on the effective date of the Second Amendment, which was October 26, 2022.
The First and Second Amendments discussed above made no other changes to the terms of the New Credit Agreement, which contains customary covenants, representations, and events of default and also requires the Company to comply with a maximum consolidated secured net leverage ratio and minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio.
The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $4,064 for the New Credit Agreement, inclusive of costs incurred for the First and Second Amendments. Deferred debt issuance costs are recorded as a reduction of the carrying value of the debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. All deferred debt issuance costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the loan to interest expense.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $376,000 drawn against the New Credit Agreement, classified as long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, with remaining unamortized debt issuance costs of $1,966.
As of December 31, 2023, amounts outstanding under the New Credit Agreement accrue interest at an annual rate equal to, at the Company’s election, (i) SOFR plus between 1.50% and 2.25%, based on the Company’s consolidated secured net leverage ratio, or (ii) a base rate based upon the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) BoA’s prime rate, or (c) SOFR plus 1.00% plus between 0.50% and 1.25%, based on the Company’s consolidated secured leverage ratio. Additionally, the New Credit Agreement is subject to an unused line of credit fee between 0.15% and 0.35% per annum, based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. As of December 31, 2023, the interest rate was 7.49% and the unused line of credit fee was 0.30%.
The Company’s payment and performance obligations under the New Credit Agreement and related loan documents are secured by its grant of a security interest in substantially all of its personal property assets, whether now existing or hereafter acquired, subject to certain exclusions. If the Company acquires any real property assets with a fair market value in excess of $5,000, it is required to grant a security interest in such real property as well. All such security interests are required to be first priority security interests, subject to certain permitted liens.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $149,000 available to draw on the revolving line of credit under the New Credit Agreement, excluding the accordion feature, subject to the required covenants. As of December 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants. The fair value of the Company’s outstanding debt approximates its carrying value.
The Company entered into a Third Amendment to the New Credit Agreement on February 5, 2024 to provide further financing flexibility to fund growth initiatives and meet general corporate obligations. Refer to Note 14 for further discussion.

Note 10—Stock-Based Compensation
2020 Equity Incentive Plan of Digital Turbine, Inc. (the “2020 Plan”)
On September 15, 2020, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2020 Plan, pursuant to which the Company may grant equity incentive awards to directors, employees and other eligible participants. A total of 12,000,000 shares of common stock were reserved for grant under the 2020 Plan. The types of awards that may be granted under the 2020 Plan include incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and restricted stock units. The 2020 Plan became effective on September 15, 2020, and has a term of ten years. Stock options may be either incentive stock options, as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or non-qualified stock options. As of December 31, 2023, 4,407,643 shares of common stock were available for issuance as future awards under the 2020 Plan.
Stock Options
The following table summarizes stock option activity:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Number of Shares | | Weighted-Average Exercise Price (per share) | | Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Life (in years) | | Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) |

Exercisable as of December 31, 2023 | | 4,881,767 | | | $ | 11.23 | | | 4.77 | | $ | 14,051 | |
At December 31, 2023, total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options, net of estimated forfeitures, was $16,221, with an expected remaining weighted-average recognition period of 1.88 years.
Restricted Stock
Awards of restricted stock units may be either grants of time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) or performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) that are issued at no cost to the recipient. The stock-based compensation expense for these awards is determined using the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. No capital transaction occurs until the units vest, at which time they are converted to restricted or unrestricted stock. Compensation expense for RSUs with a time condition is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The Company periodically grants PSUs to certain key employees that are subject to the achievement of specified internal performance metrics over a specified performance period. The terms and conditions of the PSUs generally allow for vesting of the awards ranging between forfeiture and up to 200% of target. Stock-based compensation expense for PSUs with a performance condition are recognized on a straight-line basis based on the most likely attainment scenario over the performance period. The most likely attainment scenario is re-evaluated each period.
Restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) are awards of common stock that are legally issued and outstanding. RSAs are subject to time-based restrictions on transfer and unvested portions are generally subject to a risk of forfeiture if the award recipient ceases providing services to the Company prior to the lapse of the restrictions. The stock-based compensation expense for these awards is determined using the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The RSAs have time conditions and in some cases, once the stock vests, the individual is restricted from selling the shares of stock for a certain defined period, from three months to one year, depending on the terms of the RSA.
The following table summarizes RSU, PSU, and RSA activity:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Number of Shares | | Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value |
| | | | |
| | | | |
| | | | |

Unvested restricted shares outstanding as of December 31, 2023 | | 4,285,579 | | | $ | 13.23 | |
At December 31, 2023, total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs, PSUs and RSAs, net of estimated forfeitures was $44,831, with an expected remaining weighted-average recognition period of 2.03 years.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
Stock-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, was $7,987 and $27,020, respectively, and was recorded within general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Stock-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022, was $7,620 and $19,643, respectively, and was recorded within general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, the Company determined that achievement of the performance goals for certain PSU’s was improbable, and as a result, compensation expense of $985 related to the PSUs granted was reversed.
Note 11—Earnings per Share
Basic net (loss) income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net (loss) income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period using the applicable methods.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net (loss) income per share of common stock (in thousands, except per share amounts):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three months ended December 31, | | Nine months ended December 31, |
| | 2023 | | 2022 | | 2023 | | 2022 | | |
Net (loss) income per common share | | (14,061) | | | 4,062 | | | (183,942) | | | 30,723 | | | |
Less: net (loss) income attributable to non-controlling interest | | — | | | 43 | | | (220) | | | 118 | | | |
Net (loss) income attributable to Digital Turbine, Inc. | | $ | (14,061) | | | $ | 4,019 | | | $ | (183,722) | | | $ | 30,605 | | | |
Weighted-average common shares outstanding, basic | | 101,376 | | | 99,108 | | | 100,643 | | | 98,623 | | | |
Basic net (loss) income per common share attributable to Digital Turbine, Inc. | | $ | (0.14) | | | $ | 0.04 | | | $ | (1.83) | | | $ | 0.31 | | | |
Weighted-average common shares outstanding, diluted | | 101,376 | | | 103,348 | | | 100,643 | | | 103,674 | | | |
Diluted net (loss) income per common share attributable to Digital Turbine, Inc. | | $ | (0.14) | | | $ | 0.04 | | | $ | (1.83) | | | $ | 0.30 | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Potentially dilutive outstanding securities of 2,082,662 and 3,157,800 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, and 1,477,381 and 1,462,517 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Note 12—Income Taxes
The Company's provision for income taxes as a percentage of pre-tax earnings (“effective tax rate”) is based on a current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate, adjusted to reflect the impact of discrete items. In accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, jurisdictions forecasting losses that are not benefited due to valuation allowances are not included in our forecasted effective tax rate.
During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, a tax benefit of $2,845 and $5,097, respectively, resulted in an effective tax rate of 16.8% and 2.7%, respectively. Differences between the effective tax rate and the statutory tax rate primarily relate to the non-deductible goodwill impairment charge, tax limitations on deductions for compensation, state tax benefits and foreign rate differences.
During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022, a tax benefit of $1,153 and a tax provision of $8,164 resulted in an effective tax rate of (39.6)% and 21.0%, respectively. Differences between the effective tax rate and the statutory tax rate primarily relate to return to provision true-ups filed during the period.
Note 13—Commitments and Contingencies
Hosting Agreements
The Company enters into hosting agreements with service providers and in some cases, those agreements include minimum commitments that require the Company to purchase a minimum amount of service over a specified time period (“the minimum commitment period”). The minimum commitment period is generally one-year in duration and the hosting agreements include multiple minimum commitment periods. Our minimum purchase commitments under these hosting agreements total approximately $278,600 over the next four fiscal years.
Legal Matters
The Company may be involved in various claims, suits, assessments, investigations, and legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business. The Company accrues a liability when it is both probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company reviews these accruals at least quarterly and adjusts them to reflect ongoing negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other relevant information. To the extent new information is obtained and the Company’s views on the probable outcomes of claims, suits, assessments, investigations, or legal proceedings change, changes in the Company’s accrued liabilities would be recorded in the period such determination is made. For some matters, the amount of liability is not probable or the amount cannot be reasonably estimated and, therefore, accruals have not been made.
On June 6, 2022 and July 21, 2022, stockholders of the Company filed class action complaints against the Company and certain of the Company’s officers in the Western District of Texas related to Digital Turbine, Inc.’s announcement in May 2022 that it would restate some of its financial results. The claims allege violations of certain federal securities laws. These have been consolidated into In re Digital Turbine, Inc. Securities Litigation, Case No. 1:22-cv-00550-DAE. On July 19, 2023, the Western District court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the case. The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on August 23, 2023, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on September 22, 2023, and briefing on the motion to dismiss is complete as of November 13, 2023. The court has not yet issued a ruling on the Company’s motion to dismiss the amended complaint. In addition, several derivative actions have been filed against the Company and the Company’s directors, which all assert claims of breach of fiduciary duties arising out of the same facts as the securities class action. The cases are Olszanski v. Digital Turbine, Inc., et al.; Case No. 1:22-cv-911 in federal court in the Western District of Texas (October 4, 2022); Witt v. Digital Turbine, Inc., et al; Case 1:22-cv-01429-UNA in federal court in the District of Delaware (February 14, 2023); and Krumwiede v. Digital Turbine, Inc.; Case No. 2023-0277 in state court in the Delaware Chancery Court (March 6, 2023). The federal derivative cases have been stayed under a court order, pending a ruling on any motion to dismiss the federal class action. The Company and the individual defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Delaware Chancery case on May 11, 2023. The Company and individual defendants deny any allegations of wrongdoing and the Company plans to vigorously defend against the claims asserted in these complaints. Due to the early stages of these cases, management is unable to assess a likely outcome or potential liability at this time.
As previously disclosed, on July 25, 2023, a stockholder (the “Plaintiff”) filed a Verified Stockholder Derivative and Class Action Complaint captioned Garfield v. Gyani, et al., C.A. No. 2023-0755-JTL (the “Action”) in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the “Court”). Plaintiff alleged that in May 2023, the Compensation and Human Capital Management Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) granted the Company’s Chief Executive Officer certain equity awards that allegedly exceeded annual limits in the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan. Defendants denied any and all allegations that they engaged in any wrongdoing. On September 15, 2023, the Board amended the terms of the awards to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to clarify that any awards exceeding the annual limit were void, thereby mooting the Plaintiff’s claims. The Plaintiff and the Company agreed that the Board’s amendment of the awards rendered the Plaintiff’s claims moot. The Company agreed to pay $180 to settle the Plaintiff’s claim to entitlement to an award of attorneys’ fees and reimbursement of expenses. On December 20, 2023, the Court entered a Stipulation and Order of Dismissal in the Action to reflect the settlement.
Note 14—Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events through the issuance date of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, which was February 7, 2024. There were no events or transactions during the subsequent event reporting period that required disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements, other than:
The Company entered into a Third Amendment to the New Credit Agreement on February 5, 2024 to provide further financing flexibility to fund growth initiatives and meet general corporate obligations. The Third Amendment to the New Credit Agreement amended the maximum consolidated secured net leverage covenant and the minimum consolidated net interest coverage covenant. In addition, it increased the limit of permitted, other investments, including equity investments and joint ventures from $20,000 in the aggregate in any fiscal year of the Company to $75,000 and increased the annual interest rate, which will be SOFR plus between 1.50% and 2.75%, based on the Company’s consolidated secured net leverage ratio.
On February 5, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with One Store Co., Ltd. (“One Store”), whereby the Company will invest $10,000 into One Store in exchange for shares of common stock of One Store, the largest alternative app store in South Korea. In addition, the Company agreed to make additional investments of $10,000 and $10,000 upon the achievement of two distinct performance milestones. Further, the Company agreed to invest $5,000 in a joint venture (“European Joint Venture”) upon achievement of the first above performance milestone and an additional $10,000 into the European Joint Venture upon achievement of the second performance milestone. It is anticipated that the Company would receive a 49.9% interest in the European Joint Venture. The Company expects to fund the initial investment of $10,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Company Overview
Digital Turbine, Inc., through its subsidiaries (collectively “Digital Turbine” or the “Company”), is a leading independent mobile growth platform that levels up the landscape for advertisers, publishers, carriers, and device original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”). We offer end-to-end products and solutions leveraging proprietary technology to all participants in the mobile application ecosystem, enabling brand discovery and advertising, user acquisition and engagement, and operational efficiency for advertisers. In addition, our products and solutions provide monetization opportunities for OEMs, carriers, and application (“app” or “apps”) publishers and developers.
Recent Developments
Impact of Economic Conditions and Geopolitical Developments
Our results of operations are affected by macroeconomic conditions and geopolitical developments, including but not limited to levels of business and consumer confidence, actions taken by governments to counter inflation, potential trade disputes, including but not limited to any U.S. government actions against China based developers and publishers, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and the recent conflict in Israel.
Inflation, rising interest rates, supply chain disruptions, and reduced business and consumer confidence have caused and may continue to cause a global slowdown of economic activity, which has caused and may continue to cause a decrease in demand for a broad variety of goods and services, including those provided by our clients.
We are impacted by the volume of sales of new mobile devices by our partners, which has been below our expectations. We believe this is is driven by the impact of inflation, economic uncertainty, and their potential impacts on consumers. These negative macroeconomic trends have resulted, and may continue to result in, a decrease in mobile phone sales volume. Continued weakness in the sale of new mobile devices is likely to continue to impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations, the full impact of which remains uncertain at this time.
Further, various U.S. federal and state governmental agencies continue to examine the distribution and use of apps developed and/or published by China based companies. In some cases, government agencies have
banned certain apps from mobile devices. Further actions by U.S. federal or state governmental agencies or other countries to restrict or ban the distribution of China based apps could negatively impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
While Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has not had a direct, material impact on our business, any European conflict, if expanded to include other countries would likely have a material, negative impact on general economic conditions and would impact our business directly.
Additionally, we continue to actively monitor the recent and ongoing conflict in Israel and the Gaza Strip for any material impacts to our business. While no adverse financial or operational impacts have been noted in the current period, if such conflict continues or escalates, it could have a potential negative impact on our business, given our significant presence in the region.
The extent of the impact of these macroeconomic factors on our operational and financial performance is also dependent on their impact on carriers and OEMs in relation to their sales of smartphones, tablets, and other devices, as well as the impact on application developers and in-app advertisers. If negative macroeconomic factors or geopolitical developments materially impact our partners over a prolonged period, our results of operations and financial condition could also be adversely impacted, the size and duration of which we cannot accurately predict at this time.
We continue to actively monitor these factors and we may take further actions that alter our business operations, as required, or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, partners, suppliers, and stockholders. In addition to monitoring the developments described above, the Company also considers the impact such factors may have on our accounting estimates and potential impairments of our non-current assets, which primarily consist of goodwill and finite-lived intangible assets.
The process of evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is subjective and requires significant judgment, including qualitative and quantitative factors such as the identification of reporting units, identification and allocation of assets and liabilities to reporting units, and determinations of fair value. In estimating the fair value of our reporting units when performing our annual impairment test, or when an indicator of impairment is present, we make estimates and significant judgments about the future cash flows of those reporting units and other estimates including appropriate discount rates. Discount rates can fluctuate based on various economic conditions including our capital allocation and interest rates, including the interest rates on U.S. treasury bonds. Changes in judgments on these assumptions and estimates, particularly expectations of revenue and cash flow growth rates in future periods and discount rates, could result in goodwill impairment charges.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company determined that the sustained decline in the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock and current and forecasted operating trends represented a change in circumstances that indicated that the fair value of the Company’s reporting units may be less than their carrying amounts. Therefore, the Company evaluated goodwill for impairment, which resulted in the recognition of an impairment charge for our AGP reporting unit of $147,181 during the three months ended September 30, 2023. There was no goodwill impairment charge recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2023.
In addition to evaluating goodwill for impairment when events or circumstances indicate they would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value, the Company also evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis. The Company’s next annual evaluation of goodwill for impairment will be as of March 31, 2024. Given the goodwill impairment recorded for our AGP reporting unit during the three months ended September 30, 2023, material reductions in expected growth rates or increases in the discount rate could result in further goodwill impairments.
Finite-lived intangible assets and property, plant, and equipment are amortized or depreciated over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. We monitor conditions related to these assets to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining amortization or depreciation period or an impairment. We test these assets for potential impairment whenever we conclude events or changes in circumstances indicate carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
The Company entered into a Third Amendment to the New Credit Agreement on February 5, 2024 to provide further financing flexibility to fund strategic growth initiatives and meet general corporate obligations. The Third Amendment to the New Credit Agreement amended the maximum consolidated secured net leverage
covenant and the minimum consolidated net interest coverage covenant. In addition, it increased the limit of permitted, other investments, including equity investments and joint ventures from $20,000 in the aggregate in any fiscal year of the Company to $75,000 and increased the annual interest rate, which will be SOFR plus between 1.50% and 2.75%, based on the Company’s consolidated secured net leverage ratio.
On February 5, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with One Store Co., Ltd. (“One Store”), whereby the Company will invest $10,000 into One Store in exchange for shares of common stock of One Store, the largest alternative app store in South Korea. In addition, the Company agreed to make additional investments of $10,000 and $10,000 upon the achievement of two distinct performance milestones. Further, the Company agreed to invest $5,000 in a joint venture (“European Joint Venture”) upon achievement of the first above performance milestone and an additional $10,000 into the European Joint Venture upon achievement of the second performance milestone. It is anticipated that the Company would receive a 49.9% interest in the European Joint Venture.

Business Transformation Initiative
Beginning in fiscal year 2023, the Company entered into a business transformation project that includes the implementation of a new, global cloud-based enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system to upgrade our existing enterprise-wide operating systems. Additionally, a new human resource system was also implemented to streamline employee management processes and enhance organizational effectiveness.We are also undertaking the consolidation of existing ancillary systems and deploying other new platforms and systems to improve our operations and drive business and cost efficiencies.
This is a multi-year project that includes various costs, including software configuration and implementation costs that would be recognized as either capital expenditures or deferred costs in accordance with applicable accounting policies, with certain costs recognized as operating expense associated with project development and project management costs, and professional services with business partners engaged in the planning, design and business process review that would not qualify as software configuration and implementation costs. In addition, the Company is incurring duplicative personnel and other operating costs to maintain legacy systems and operations during the deployment of the new systems and certain other ancillary platforms and systems. The Company completed the first deployment phase in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. Costs are anticipated to be incurred through various deployment phases that are expected to continue through early fiscal year 2026. The Company incurred $4,763 and $7,291 of business transformation costs in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, respectively. These costs are recorded in General and Administrative expenses and Product Development expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income.

Revenue from content media declined by approximately $3,332 primarily due to the end of a carrier partnership that resulted in lower daily active users on prepaid devices. Revenue from application media increased by approximately $1,314. The increase was primarily driven by higher strategic demand and revenue-per-device in the United States (“US”) market. This increase was partially offset by lower device volume in our international markets.
ODS revenue for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, decreased by $31,811 or 9.8% compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2022. Revenue from content media declined by approximately $29,656 for the same reason as noted above for the three months ended December 31, 2023. In addition, application media revenue declined by approximately $2,155 for the nine months ended December 31, 2023. The decline in revenue in application media was primarily due to lower device volumes in the US and internationally, partially offset by higher revenue-per-device, resulting in a $2,908 decrease in revenue.

Comparison of the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022
Total costs of revenue and operating expenses decreased by $612 or 0.4% and increased by $128,370 or 27.3%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022.
Total costs of revenue and operating expenses included an impairment of goodwill of 147,181. Excluding the impairment of goodwill, total costs of revenue and operating expenses decreased by $612 or 0.4% and $18,811 or 4.0%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022.
The decrease in total costs of revenue and operating expenses for both comparative periods, after excluding the impairment of goodwill, was primarily due to lower revenue share, partially offset by higher general and administrative costs. The reduced revenue share is the result of lower revenue over the same comparative periods. Costs of revenue and operating expenses included total business transformation, severance and transaction costs of $5,718 and $9,535, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $2,407 and $4,990, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022.
Revenue share
Revenue share includes amounts paid to our carrier and OEM partners, as well as app publishers and developers, and are recorded as a cost of revenue.
Revenue share decreased by $3,006 or 4.1% to $70,364 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, and was 49.3% as a percentage of total net revenue compared to $73,370, or 45.2% of total net revenue, for the three months ended December 31, 2022.
Revenue share decreased by $28,943 or 12.2% to $208,675 for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, and was 48.3% as a percentage of total net revenue compared to $237,618, or 45.2% of total net revenue, for the nine months ended December 31, 2022.
The decrease in revenue share was attributable to the decrease in total net revenue over the same periods, as these costs are typically paid as a percentage of our revenue. The increase in revenue share as a percentage of total net revenue for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the prior year comparative periods, was primarily due to revenue mix changes, specifically net revenue from AGP, which has a higher margin profile, represented a lower portion of total revenue. In addition, the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022 included the benefit of a contractual revenue share adjustment with an ODS partner.
Other direct costs

Impairment of goodwill
The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually or upon the occurrence of events or circumstances that indicate they would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. During annual testing as of March 31, 2023, the Company determined that the fair value of both reporting units was in excess of their carrying value. As a result of this review, the Company did not record an impairment charge in fiscal year 2023.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company determined that the sustained decline in the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock during the current fiscal year (in particular during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 and following such quarter), the increase in interest rates, and the Company’s current and recently updated forecasted operating trends represented a change in circumstances that indicate that the fair value of the Company’s reporting units may be less than their carrying value. The Company completed an impairment assessment of its goodwill, and as a result of this review, recorded a $147,181 non-deductible, non-cash goodwill impairment charge (or $1.46 per basic and diluted share) for the AGP reporting unit for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. There was no impairment of goodwill for the ODS reporting unit.
The fair value of each reporting unit was estimated using a weighted combination of the income approach, which incorporates the use of the discounted cash flows method, and the market approach (the “Guideline Public Company Method”). The Company’s September 30, 2023 testing reflected a 75%/25% allocation between the income and market approaches. The Company believes the 75% weighting to the income approach is appropriate, as it directly reflects its future growth and profitability expectations.
For the three months ended December 31, 2023, no goodwill impairment charges were recorded.

As of December 31, 2023, we had unrestricted cash of approximately $48,959 and $149,000 available to draw under the New Credit Agreement with BoA, excluding the accordion feature, subject to the required covenants. We generated $40,433 in cash flows from operating activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2023.
Our ability to meet our debt service obligations and to fund working capital, capital expenditures, and investments in our business will depend upon our future performance, which will be subject to availability of borrowing capacity under our credit facility and our ability to access capital markets as well as financial, business, and other factors affecting our operations, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include general and regional economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, and other factors such as health epidemics including COVID-19, economic and macro-economic factors like labor shortages, supply chain disruptions, and inflation, and geopolitical developments, including the conflict in Ukraine, the political climate related to China, and the conflict in Israel. We cannot guarantee we will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, or that future borrowings or capital markets will be available, in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our debt or to fund our other liquidity needs.
We believe we will generate sufficient cash flow from operations and have the liquidity and capital resources to meet our business requirements for at least 12 months from the filing date of this Report.
Outstanding Secured Indebtedness
Our outstanding secured indebtedness under the New Credit Agreement is $376,000 as of December 31, 2023. The maturity date of the New Credit Agreement is April 29, 2026, and the outstanding balance is classified as long-term debt, net of debt issuance costs of $1,966, on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023. For further description of the terms of the New Credit Agreement, see Note 9—Debt under the heading “Revolver” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Report.
The collateral pledged to secure our secured debt, consisting of substantially all of our U.S. subsidiaries’ assets, would be available to the secured creditor in a foreclosure, in addition to many other remedies. Accordingly, any adverse change in our ability to service our secured debt could result in an event of default, cross default, and foreclosure or forced sale. Depending on the value of the assets, there could be little, if any, assets available for common stockholders in any foreclosure or forced sale.
Our credit facility also contains a maximum consolidated secured net leverage ratio and minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio. If we fail to satisfy these covenants, the lender may declare a default, which could lead to acceleration of the debt maturity. Any such default would have a material adverse effect on us.
As of December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all covenants under the New Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to the New Credit Agreement on February 5, 2024 to provide further financing flexibility to fund growth initiatives and meet general corporate obligations. Refer to Note 14 for further discussion.
Hosting Agreements
We enter into hosting agreements with service providers, and, in some cases, those agreements include minimum commitments that require us to purchase a minimum amount of service over a specified time period (“the minimum commitment period”). The minimum commitment period is generally one-year in duration, and the hosting agreements include multiple minimum commitment periods. Our minimum purchase commitments under these hosting agreements total approximately $278,600 over the next four fiscal years.

Operating Activities
Our cash flows from operating activities are primarily driven by revenue generated from user acquisition and advertising activity, offset by the cash costs of operations, and are significantly influenced by the timing of and fluctuations in receipts from customers and payments to our carrier and publisher partners as well as other vendors. Our future cash flows from operating activities will be diminished if we cannot increase our revenue levels and
manage costs appropriately. Cash provided by operating activities was $40,433 for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $97,514 for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease of $57,081 was due to the following:
•$214,665 decrease in net income, which includes the goodwill impairment charge of $147,181.
•$12,605 increase due to changes in operating assets and liabilities, driven primarily by working capital changes, including an increase in accounts payable, accrued compensation, and other current liabilities, partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable; and
• $144,979 increase in non-cash charges during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 primarily related to goodwill impairment and increased stock-based compensation, partially offset by lower right-of-use assets and deferred income taxes for the nine months ended December 31, 2023.
Investing Activities
Our primary investing activities have consisted of acquisitions of businesses, purchases of property and equipment, and capital expenditures in support of creating and enhancing our technology infrastructure. For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in investing activities increased by $1,691 to approximately $26,997. Our cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, was primarily comprised of capital expenditures related to internally-developed software and equity investments in strategic businesses.
Financing Activities
For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in financing activities was approximately $39,275, which was comprised of: (1) the net repayment of debt obligations of $62,134, (2) payment of $3,751 for the acquisition of the remaining minority interest shareholders’ outstanding shares in one of our subsidiaries, (3) payment of payroll withholding taxes for net share settlement of equity awards of $1,176. These cash outflows were partially offset by cash inflows comprising of proceeds from borrowings of $25,000 and stock option exercises of $2,786.
For the nine months ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in financing activities was approximately $116,701, which was comprised of repayment of debt obligations of $129,500, payment of payroll withholding taxes for net share settlement of equity awards of $6,202, partially offset by cash inflows from stock option exercises of $1,095.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements is based on management’s selection and application of accounting policies, some of which require management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and notes. For more information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, please see Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, and Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of this Report on Form 10-Q for our fiscal third quarter ended December 31, 2023.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company has operations both within the U.S. and internationally and is exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of business - primarily interest rate and foreign currency exchange risks.
Interest Rate Fluctuation Risk
The primary objective of the Company’s investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing income without significantly increasing risk. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and deposits, which are sensitive to interest rate changes.
The Company’s borrowings under its credit facility are subject to variable interest rates and thus expose the Company to interest rate fluctuations, depending on the extent to which the Company utilizes its credit facility. If market interest rates materially increase, the Company’s results of operations could be adversely affected. A hypothetical increase in market interest rates of 100 basis points would result in an increase in interest expense of $10 per year for every $1,000 of outstanding debt under the Company’s credit facility. The Company has not used any derivative financial instruments to manage its interest rate risk exposure.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
Foreign currency exchange risk is the risk that the Company’s results of operations and/or financial condition could be affected by changes in exchange rates. The Company has transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, principally the euro, Turkish lira, and British pound, that expose the Company’s operations to risk from the effects of exchange rate movements. Such movements may impact future revenues, expenses, and cash flows. In certain of the Company’s foreign operations, the Company transacts primarily in the U.S. dollar, including for net revenue, revenue share, and employee-related compensation costs, which reduces the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. In addition, gains (losses) related to translating certain cash balances, trade accounts receivable and payable balances, and intercompany balances also impact net income. As the Company’s foreign operations expand, results may be impacted further by fluctuations in the exchange rates of the currencies in which the Company does business. The Company has not used any derivative financial instruments to manage its foreign currency exchange risk exposure.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, regardless of how well they were designed and are operating, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Except as noted below, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, we implemented a new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system. The new ERP system replaced our previous ERP systems, including our accounting systems and general ledgers. As a result of this implementation, we modified certain existing controls and implemented new controls and procedures related to the new ERP system to maintain appropriate internal control over financial reporting during and after the system change.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company may be involved in various claims, suits, assessments, investigations, and legal proceedings that arise from time-to-time in the ordinary course of its business.
On June 6, 2022 and July 21, 2022, stockholders of the Company filed class action complaints against the Company and certain of the Company’s officers in the Western District of Texas related to Digital Turbine, Inc.’s announcement in May 2022 that it would restate some of its financial results. The claims allege violations of certain federal securities laws. These have been consolidated into In re Digital Turbine, Inc. Securities Litigation, Case No. 1:22-cv-00550-DAE. On July 19, 2023, the Western District court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the case. The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on August 23, 2023, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on September 22, 2023, and briefing on the motion to dismiss is complete as of November 13, 2023. The court has not yet issued a ruling on the Company’s motion to dismiss the amended complaint. In addition, several derivative actions have been filed against the Company and the Company’s directors, which all assert claims of breach of fiduciary duties arising out of the same facts as the securities class action. The cases are Olszanski v. Digital Turbine, Inc., et al.; Case No. 1:22-cv-911 in federal court in the Western District of Texas (October 4, 2022); Witt v. Digital Turbine, Inc., et al; Case 1:22-cv-01429-UNA in federal court in the District of Delaware (February 14, 2023); and Krumwiede v. Digital Turbine, Inc.; Case No. 2023-0277 in state court in the Delaware Chancery Court (March 6, 2023). The federal derivative cases have been stayed under a court order, pending a ruling on any motion to dismiss the federal class action. The Company and the individual defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Delaware Chancery case on May 11, 2023. The Company and individual defendants deny any allegations of wrongdoing and the Company plans to vigorously defend against the claims asserted in these complaints. Due to the early stages of these cases, management is unable to assess a likely outcome or potential liability at this time.
As previously disclosed, on July 25, 2023, a stockholder (the “Plaintiff”) filed a Verified Stockholder Derivative and Class Action Complaint captioned Garfield v. Gyani, et al., C.A. No. 2023-0755-JTL (the “Action”) in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the “Court”). Plaintiff alleged that in May 2023, the Compensation and Human Capital Management Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) granted the Company’s Chief Executive Officer certain equity awards that allegedly exceeded annual limits in the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan. Defendants denied any and all allegations that they engaged in any wrongdoing. On September 15, 2023, the Board amended the terms of the awards to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to clarify that any awards exceeding the annual limit were void, thereby mooting the Plaintiff’s claims. The Plaintiff and the Company agreed that the Board’s amendment of the awards rendered the Plaintiff’s claims moot. The Company agreed to pay $180 to settle the Plaintiff’s claim to entitlement to an award of attorneys’ fees and reimbursement of expenses. On December 20, 2023, the Court entered a Stipulation and Order of Dismissal in the Action to reflect the settlement.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The information in this Report should be read in conjunction with the risk factors set forth under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 25, 2023. The Company is not aware of any change to such risk factors except for the addition of the following:
Risks associated with the ongoing conflict in Israel has caused, and is currently expected to cause, negative effects on geopolitical conditions and the global economy, including financial markets, inflation, and the global supply chain, which could have an adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition, especially given our significant business presence in the region.
Since October 7, 2023, the hostilities in Israel and the Gaza Strip have further heightened global tensions and instability. At this time, it is unknown whether hostilities in this region will escalate into an even larger conflict. The Company has a significant business presence in the region, and therefore, continuation or escalation of the conflict could cause significant adverse financial impacts, due to reductions in demand and/or interruptions in business operations.
