OEMs are companies that embed our products into their own software products or devices. Value-added resellers are companies that add features or services to our product, then resell it as an integrated product or complete "turn-key" solution.

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies - We prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, ~~they~~the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete financial statements and these unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, ~~2021,~~2022, as filed with the SEC on January 27, ~~2022, as amended by a Form 10-K/A filed on March 30, 2022 (together, the "2021 10-K"~~2023 (our "2022 Annual Report").

We made no material changes in the application of our significant accounting policies that were disclosed in our ~~2021 10-K.~~2022 Annual Report. We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as the audited financial statements included in our ~~2021 10-K,~~2022 Annual Report, and these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and records changes in estimates in the period in which they become known. These estimates are based on historical data and experience, as well as various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates relate ~~to: the timing and amount of~~to revenue recognition ~~including the determination of the nature~~ and timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations, the standalone selling price of performance obligations, and the transaction price allocated to performance obligations; the realization of tax assets and estimates of tax liabilities; fair values of investments in marketable securities; intangible assets and goodwill valuations; the recognition and disclosure of contingent liabilities; the collectability of accounts receivable; and assumptions used to determine the fair value of stock-based compensation.business combinations. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

~~Income Taxes~~Reference Rate Reform

In ~~December 2019,~~March 2020, the ~~Financial Accounting Standards Board~~FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. ~~2019-12, Income Taxes~~2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic ~~740)~~848): ~~Simplifying~~Facilitation of the ~~Accounting for Income Taxes~~Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU ~~2019-12"~~2020-04"), as amended in December 2022 by Accounting Standards Update No. 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 ("ASU 2022-06"). ASU ~~2019-12 updates specific areas of ASC 740, Income Taxes,~~2020-04 provides guidance to ~~reduce complexity while maintaining~~alleviate the burden in accounting for reference rate reform by allowing certain expedients and exceptions in applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions impacted by reference rate reform.

The Company adopted ~~this standard effective December 1, 2021.~~ASU 2020-04 in June 2023, in connection with the amendment of its interest rate swap agreement to implement certain changes in the reference rate from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR").

statements.

~~Convertible Debt~~

On December 1, 2021, we early adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity ("ASU 2020-06") on a modified retrospective basis. Under ASU 2020-06, we no longer separate the convertible senior notes into liability and equity components. We recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying this new standard as of December 1, 2021, as an adjustment to the December 1, 2021 opening balance of retained earnings. The conversion option that was previously accounted for in equity under the cash conversion model was recombined into the convertible debt outstanding, and as a result, additional paid in capital and the related unamortized debt discount on the convertible senior notes were reduced. The removal of the remaining debt discount recorded for this previous separation has the effect of increasing our net debt balance. We recorded a $47.5 million decrease to additional paid-in capital, a $56.0 million decrease to debt discount, a $4.9 million increase to retained earnings, and a $13.4 million decrease to long-term deferred tax liabilities. There was no impact to the Company’s statements of cash flows as the result of the adoption of ASU 2020-06. The prior period consolidated financial statements have not been retrospectively adjusted and continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. See Note 8: Debt for additional information regarding the terms of the Convertible Senior Notes (the "Notes").

The new standard requires the use of the "if-converted" method to calculate the diluted earnings per common share. Refer to Note 16: Earnings Per Share for effect of the convertible notes on diluted earnings per common share.

Note 3: Derivative Instruments

Cash Flow Hedge

On July 9, 2019, we entered into an interest rate swap contract with an initial notional amount of $150.0 million to manage the variability of cash flows associated with approximately one-half of our variable rate debt. The contract matures on April 30, 2024 and requires periodic interest rate settlements. Under this interest rate swap contract, we receive a floating rate based on the greater of 1-month LIBOR or 0.00%, and pay a fixed rate of 1.855% on the outstanding notional ~~amount.~~amount. In June 2023, the interest rate swap agreement was amended to implement certain changes in the reference rate from LIBOR to SOFR.

We have designated the interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge and assess the hedge effectiveness both at the onset of the hedge and at regular intervals throughout the life of the derivative. To the extent that the interest rate swap is highly effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the fair value of the derivative are included as a component of other comprehensive loss on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Although we have determined at the onset of the hedge that the interest rate swap will be a highly effective hedge throughout the term of the contract, any portion of the fair value swap subsequently determined to be ineffective will be recognized in earnings. ~~On January 25, 2022, we amended our prior credit facility (see Note 8: Debt). We reassessed the hedge in connection with the debt amendment and determined that it is still highly effective.~~ As of ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022~~,2023, the fair value of the hedge was a gain of ~~$3.3~~$3.2 million, which was included in other current assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The net amount of accumulated other comprehensive loss reclassified to interest expense during the six months ended May 31, 2023 and May 31, 2022 was a decrease of $1.6 million and an increase of $1.0 million, respectively.

The following table presents our interest rate swap contract where the notional amount reflects the quarterly amortization of the interest rate swap, which is equal to approximately one-half of the corresponding reduction in the balance of our term loan as we make scheduled principal payments. The fair value of the derivative represents the discounted value of the expected future discounted cash flows for the interest rate swap, based on the amortization schedule and the current forward curve for the remaining term of the contract, as of the date of each reporting period (in thousands):

Forward Contracts

We generally use forward contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments to hedge economically the impact of the variability in exchange rates on intercompany accounts receivable and loans receivable denominated in certain foreign currencies. We generally do not hedge the net assets of our international subsidiaries.

All forward contracts are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets at the end of each reporting period and generally expire between 30 days and 2 years from the date the contract was entered. At ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022, $4.3 million and $0.1~~2023, $2.9 million was recorded in other ~~noncurrent~~accrued liabilities ~~and other current assets~~ on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. At November 30, ~~2021, $0.3~~2022, $3.1 million and $0.1 million were recorded in other noncurrent liabilities and other ~~accrued liabilities,~~current assets, respectively, on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022,~~2023, realized and unrealized ~~losses~~gains of ~~$5.4~~$1.1 million and ~~$9.0~~$1.6 million, respectively, from our forward contracts were recognized in foreign currency ~~gain (loss),~~loss, net, on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

When developing fair value estimates, we maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. When available, we use quoted market prices to measure fair value. The valuation technique used to measure fair value for our Level 1 and Level 2 assets is a market approach, using prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets. If market prices are not available, the fair value measurement is based on models that use primarily market-based parameters including yield curves, volatilities, credit ratings and currency rates. In certain cases where market rate assumptions are not available, we are required to make judgments about assumptions market participants would use to estimate the fair value of a financial instrument.

Note 7:6: Business Combinations

~~Kemp~~MarkLogic Acquisition

On ~~November 1, 2021,~~February 7, 2023, we completed the acquisition of the parent company of ~~Kemp Technologies, Inc. (“Kemp”~~MarkLogic Corporation ("MarkLogic"), ~~which is described in greater detail in our 2021 10-K.~~pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), dated as of January 3, 2023. The acquisition was completed for a base purchase price of ~~$258.0~~$355.0 million (subject to certain customary adjustments) in cash.

The acquisition consideration for ~~Kemp~~MarkLogic has been preliminarily allocated to ~~Kemp’s tangible assets, identifiable intangible~~MarkLogic’s assets and assumed liabilities based on ~~their~~ estimated fair values. The preliminary fair value estimates of the net assets acquired are based upon preliminary calculations and valuations, and those estimates and assumptions are subject to change as we obtain additional information for those estimates during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). ~~The excess of the total consideration over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill.~~

We recorded measurement period adjustments based on our ongoing valuation and purchase price allocation procedures. We are still finalizing the valuation and purchase price allocation as it relates to the net working capital amount in the table below.

The allocation of the purchase price is as follows (in thousands):


		Initial Purchase Price Allocation		Measurement Period Adjustments		Adjusted Purchase Price Allocation		Life		Initial Purchase Price Allocation		Measurement Period Adjustments		Adjusted Purchase Price Allocation		Life

The fair value of the intangible assets was estimated using the income approach in which the after-tax cash flows are discounted to present value. The cash flows are based on estimates used to value the acquisition, and the discount rates applied were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the transaction model as well as the weighted average cost of capital. The valuation assumptions take into consideration our estimates of customer attrition, technology obsolescence, and revenue growth projections. Based on the preliminary valuation, the acquired intangible assets are comprised of customer relationships of approximately $75.5 million, existing technology of approximately $39.4 million, and trade names of approximately $7.2 million.

~~Tangible assets acquired and assumed liabilities were recorded at fair value.~~ We determined the acquisition date deferred revenue balance based on our assessment of the individual contracts acquired. A significant portion of the deferred revenue is expected to be recognized in the 12 months following the acquisition.

We recorded the excess of the purchase price over the identified tangible and intangible assets as goodwill. We believe that the investment value of the future enhancement of our product and solution offerings created as a result of this acquisition has principally contributed to a purchase price that resulted in the recognition of ~~$181.3~~$154.9 million of goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

Acquisition-related transaction costs (e.g., legal, due diligence, valuation, and other professional fees) and certain acquisition restructuring and related charges are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are required to be expensed as incurred. During the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022,~~2023, we incurred approximately ~~$0.1~~$2.1 million and ~~$0.9~~$3.5 million, respectively, of acquisition-related costs, which are included in acquisition-related expenses on our consolidated statement of operations.

The amount of revenue of MarkLogic included in our consolidated statement of operations during the three and six months ended May 31, 2023, was approximately $25.3 million and $30.3 million, respectively. We determined that disclosing the amount of ~~Kemp~~MarkLogic related earnings included in the consolidated ~~statements~~statement of operations is impracticable, as certain operations of ~~Kemp~~MarkLogic were integrated into the operations of the Company from the date of acquisition.

Pro Forma Information

The following pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations of Progress and ~~Kemp~~MarkLogic as if the acquisition had occurred on December 1, ~~2019,~~2021, after giving effect to certain pro forma adjustments. The pro forma adjustments reflected herein include only those adjustments that are directly attributable to the ~~Kemp~~MarkLogic acquisition and factually supportable. These pro forma adjustments include: (i) ~~an increase in revenue from Kemp as a result of the application of Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in the business combination, (ii)~~ a net increase in amortization expense to record amortization expense relating to the ~~$122.1~~$231.1 million of acquired identifiable intangible assets, ~~(iii) a decrease~~(ii) an increase in interest expense to ~~remove~~record interest for the ~~interest expense associated~~period presented as a result of drawing down our revolving line of credit in connection with ~~Kemp’s debt obligations,~~the acquisition, and ~~(iv)~~(iii) the income tax effect of the adjustments made at the statutory tax rate of the U.S. (approximately 24.5%).

The pro forma financial information does not reflect any adjustments for anticipated expense savings resulting from the acquisition and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have actually occurred had the transaction been consummated on December 1, ~~2019. These results are prepared in accordance with ASC 606.~~2021.

~~Chef Acquisition~~

On October 5, 2020, we completed the acquisition of Chef Software Inc. (“Chef”), which is described in greater detail in our 2021 10-K. The acquisition was completed for a base purchase price of $220.0 million (subject to certain customary adjustments) in cash. We funded the acquisition through a combination of existing cash resources and by drawing down $98.5 million from our then-existing revolving credit facility. Refer to Note 8: Debt for further information.

The acquisition considerations for Chef has been allocated to Chef’s tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the total consideration over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill.

We recorded measurement period adjustments in accordance with FASB’s guidance regarding business combinations in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2021 based on our valuation and purchase price allocation procedures. The measurement period adjustments were completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021.

~~The allocation of the purchase price is as follows (in thousands):~~

Initial Purchase Price Allocation Measurement Period Adjustments Final Purchase Price Allocation Life
Net working capital $ 52,330 $ 147 $ 52,477
Property, plant and equipment 498 — 498

Goodwill 59,858 (273) 59,585
Net assets acquired $ 231,115 $ — $ 231,115

Tangible assets acquired and assumed liabilities were recorded at fair value. The valuation of the assumed deferred revenue was based on our contractual commitment to provide post-contract customer support to Chef customers and future contractual performance obligations under existing hosting arrangements. The fair value of this assumed liability was based on the estimated cost plus a reasonable margin to fulfill these service obligations. A significant portion of the deferred revenue was expected to be recognized in the 12 months following the acquisition.

We recorded the excess of the purchase price over the identified tangible and intangible assets as goodwill. We believe that the investment value of the future enhancement of our product and solution offerings created as a result of this acquisition has principally contributed to a purchase price that resulted in the recognition of $59.6 million of goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

Acquisition-related transaction costs (e.g., legal, due diligence, valuation, and other professional fees) and certain acquisition restructuring and related charges are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are required to be expensed as incurred. During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2022, we incurred approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million of acquisition-related costs, which are included in acquisition-related expenses on our consolidated statement of operations.

The operations of Chef were included in our operating results beginning on the date of acquisition. We determined that disclosing the amount of Chef related earnings included in the consolidated statements of operations is impracticable, as certain operations of Chef were integrated into the operations of the Company from the date of acquisition.

~~Convertible Senior Notes and Capped Calls~~

In April 2021, the Company issued, in a private placement to certain initial purchasers in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act in transactions not involving any public offering, for resale by the initial purchasers to persons whom the initial purchasers believe are qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule144A under the Securities Act, the Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $325.0 million, due April 15, 2026, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The proceeds from the Notes were used or are anticipated to be used for the Capped Call Transactions (described below), working capital, and other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions. There are no required principal payments prior to maturity. In addition, the Company also granted the initial purchasers of the Notes an option to purchase up to an additional $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes, for settlement within a 13-day period beginning on, and including, April 13, 2021, of which $35.0 million of additional Notes were purchased for total proceeds of $360.0 million. The Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 1%, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on October 15, 2021. The Company incurred approximately $10.8 million in issuance cost for the issuance of the Notes. During the nine months ended August 31, 2022, the Company did not enter into any new or amended Notes.

~~Conversion Rights~~

The Company will satisfy its conversion obligations by paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be converted, by issuing shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at its election. The initial conversion rate is 17.4525 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, representing an initial conversion price of approximately $57.30 per share of common stock. The conversion rate will be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events, including spin-offs, tender offers, exchange offers, make-whole fundamental change and certain stockholder distributions.

~~Repurchase Rights~~

On or after April 20, 2024, and on or before the 50th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, the Company may redeem for cash all or part of the Notes, subject to the partial redemption limitation, at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeded 130% of the conversion price on; (i) each of at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides a redemption notice and (ii) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. Pursuant to the partial redemption limitation, the Company may not elect to redeem less than all of the outstanding Notes unless at least $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes are outstanding and not subject to redemption as of the time it sends the related redemption notice.

If certain corporate events that constitute a “fundamental change” (as described below) occur at any time, holders may, subject to certain exceptions, require the Company to purchase their Notes in whole or in part for cash at a price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. A fundamental change relates to events such as business combination transactions involving the Company and certain de-listing events with respect to the Company’s common stock.

~~Capped Call Transactions~~

On April 8, 2021, in connection with the pricing of the Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (“Capped Call Transactions”) with one or more of the initial purchasers and/or their respective affiliates and/or other financial institutions. The Capped Call Transactions cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Notes, approximately 6.3 million shares (representing the number of shares of common stock initially underlying the Notes) of the Company’s common stock. The Capped Call Transactions are generally expected to reduce potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any potential cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The cap price of the Capped Call Transactions will initially be $89.88 per share of common stock, which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of the common stock of $44.94 per share on April 8, 2021 and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions. The cost of the purchased capped calls of $43.1 million was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in-capital.

We elected to integrate the capped call options with the applicable Notes for federal income tax purposes pursuant to applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations. Accordingly, the $43.1 million gross cost of the purchased capped calls will be deductible for income tax purposes as original discount interest over the term of the Notes. We recorded deferred tax assets of $10.6 million with respect to the capped calls which represents the tax benefit of these deductions with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital.

~~Accounting for the Notes~~

~~In accounting for the transaction, prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on December 1, 2021, the Notes were separated into liability and equity components.~~

•~~The conversion option of the Notes does not require bifurcation as an embedded derivative.~~

•The initial carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar debt instrument that does not have an associated conversion feature. The excess of the Notes’ principal amount over the initial carrying amount of the liability component, referred to as the debt discount, is amortized as interest expense over the Notes’ contractual term - at an effective interest rate of 5.7%.

•The equity component, which represents the difference between the gross proceeds and the initial liability component, was recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital and is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification.

The Company incurred issuance costs of $10.8 million related to the Notes, allocated between the Notes’ liability and equity components proportionate to the initial carrying amount of the liability and equity components prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06.

•Issuance costs attributable to the liability component of $8.9 million are recorded as an offset to the Notes’ principal balance. They are amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the contractual term of the Notes.

•~~Issuance costs attributable to the equity component of $1.9 million are recorded as an offset to the equity component in additional paid-in capital and are not amortized.~~

Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06 on December 1, 2021, the Company reversed the separation of the debt and equity components and accounted for the Notes wholly as debt. The Company also reversed the amortization of the debt discount that was due to the equity component, with a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings on the adoption date. Further, the Company reversed the allocation of the issuance costs to the equity component and accounted for the entire amount as debt issuance cost that will be amortized as interest expense over the remaining term at an effective interest rate of 1.63% with a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings on the adoption date.

~~Credit Facility~~

On January 25, 2022, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which provides for a $275.0 million secured term loan and a $300.0 million secured revolving line of credit. The revolving credit facility may be increased, and new term loan commitments may be entered into, by up to an additional amount up to the sum of (A) the greater of (x) $260.0 million and (y) 100% of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and (B) an unlimited additional amount subject to pro forma compliance with a Consolidated Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio of no greater than 3.75 to 1.00 if the existing or additional lenders are willing to make such increased commitments. The revolving line of credit has sublimits for swing line loans up to $25.0 million and for the issuance of standby letters of credit in a face amount up to $25.0 million. This new credit facility replaces our prior secured credit facility dated April 30, 2019.

~~The amount of the term loan outstanding under our prior secured credit facility was incorporated into the amended and restated credit facility.~~

~~Interest rates for the Credit Agreement are determined by reference to~~ a term benchmark rate or a base rate at our option and would range from 1.00% to 2.00% above the term benchmark rate or would range from 0.00% to 1.00% above the defined base rate for base rate borrowings, in each case based upon our leverage ratio. Additionally, we may borrow certain foreign currencies at rates set in the same range above the respective term benchmark rates for those currencies, basedthat ends on our leverage ratio. We will incur a quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the revolving credit facility, ranging from 0.125% to 0.275% per annum, based upon our leverage ratio. At closing of the revolving credit facility, the applicable interest rate and commitment fee are at the third lowest rate in each range.

The Credit Agreement matures on the earlier of (i) January 25, 2027, and (ii) the date that is 181 days prior to the maturity date of our Notes subject to certain conditions as set forth in the Credit Agreement, including the repayment of the Notes, the refinancing of the Notes including a maturity date that is at least 181 days after January 25, 2027 and compliance with a liquidity test when all amounts outstanding will be due and payable in full. The revolving line of credit does not require amortization of principal. The outstanding balance of the term loan as of August 31, 2022 was $269.8 million, with $6.9 million due in the next 12 months. The term loan requires repayment of principal at the end of each fiscal quarter, beginning with the fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2022. The principal repayment amounts are in accordance with the following schedule: (i) eight payments of $1.7 million each, (ii) four payments of $3.4 million each, (iii) eight payments of $5.2 million each, and (iv) the last payment is of the remaining principal amount. Any amounts outstanding under the term loan thereafter would be due on the maturity date. The term loan may be prepaid before maturity in whole or in part at our option without penalty or premium. As of August 31, 2022, the carrying value of the term loan approximates the fair value, based on Level 2 inputs (observable market prices in less than active markets), as the interest rate is variable over the selected interest period and is similar to current rates at which we can borrow funds. The interest rate as of August 31, 2022 was 3.81%.

Costs incurred to obtain our long-term debt of $3.2 million, including $1.1 million of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the previous credit agreement, are recorded as debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the long-term debt liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of August 31, 2022. These costs are being amortized over the term of the Credit Agreement using the effective interest rate method. Amortization expense related to the debt issuance costs was $0.2 million and $0.1 million, for the three months ended August 31, 2022 and August 31, 2021, respectively. Amortization expense related to the debt issuance costs was $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the nine months ended August 31, 2022 and August 31, 2021, respectively. These amounts are recorded in interest expense on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

~~The revolving line of credit may be borrowed, repaid, and reborrowed until~~ January 25, 2027, at which time all amounts outstanding must be repaid. During February 2023, we partially funded our acquisition of MarkLogic by drawing down $195.0 million under the revolving line of credit. As of ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022,~~2023, there ~~were no amounts~~was $170.0 million outstanding under the revolving line of ~~credit and $2.1 million of letters of credit outstanding.~~

~~Note 9: Leases~~

The Company has operating leases for administrative, product development, and sales and marketing facilities, vehicles, and equipment under various non-cancelable lease agreements. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms ranging from 1 year to 8 years. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease where it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those options. The Company considers several economic factors when making the determination as to whether the Company will exercise options to extend or terminate the lease, including but not limited to, the significance of leasehold improvements incurred in the office space, the difficulty in replacing the asset, underlying contractual obligations, or specific characteristics unique to a particular lease. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Consideration in the contract is comprised of any fixed payments and variable payments that depend on an index or rate. Payments in the Company's operating lease arrangements primarily consist of base office rent. The Company makes variable payments on certain of its leases related to taxes, insurance, common area maintenance, and utilities, among other things.

Note ~~10:~~8: Common Stock Repurchases

In January ~~2020,~~2023, our Board of Directors increased the ~~total~~ share repurchase authorization ~~from $75~~by $150.0 million, to ~~$250~~an aggregate authorization of $228.0 million. In the three months ended ~~August~~May 31, 2023 and May 31, 2022, we repurchased and retired 0.3 million shares for $15.0 million and 0.6 million shares for $26.5 million, respectively. In the six months ended May 31, 2023 and May 31, 2022, we repurchased and retired 0.5 million shares for ~~$24.1 million. In the three months ended August 31, 2021, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. In the nine months ended August 31, 2022~~$30.0 million and ~~August 31, 2021, we repurchased and retired 1.7~~1.1 million shares for ~~$75.5 million and 0.8 million shares for $35.0~~$51.5 million, respectively. The shares were repurchased in both periods as part of our Board of Directors authorized share repurchase program. As of ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022,~~2023, there was ~~$79.5~~$198.0 million remaining under the current authorization.

Note ~~11:~~9: Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense reflects the fair value of stock-based awards, less the present value of expected dividends when applicable, measured at the grant date and recognized over the relevant service period. We estimate the fair value of each stock-based award on the measurement date using the current market price of the stock, the Black-Scholes option valuation model, or the Monte Carlo Simulation valuation model.

In ~~2020,~~ 2021, 2022 and ~~2022,~~2023, we granted performance-based restricted stock units that include two performance metrics under our Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") where the performance measurement period is three years. Vesting of the LTIP awards on the ~~2020 plan is~~2021, 2022 and 2023 plans are based on the following: (i) 50% is based on our level of attainment of specified total stockholder return ("TSR") targets relative to the percentage appreciation of a specified index of companies for the respective three-year periods, and (ii) 50% is based on achievement of a three-year cumulative performance condition (operating income). For the 2021 and 2022 plan, the vesting terms were changed to the following: (i) 25% is based on our level of attainment of specified TSR targets relative to the percentage appreciation of a specified index of companies for the respective three-year periods, and (ii) 75% is based on achievement of a three-year cumulative operating ~~income.~~income target. In order to estimate the fair value of such awards, we used a Monte Carlo Simulation valuation model for the market condition portion of the award, and used the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant for the portion related to the performance condition.

The Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo Simulation valuation models incorporate assumptions as to stock price volatility, the expected life of options or awards, a risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. We recognize stock-based compensation expense related to options and restricted stock units on a straight-line basis over the service period of the award, which is generally 4four years for options and 3three years for restricted stock units. We recognize stock-based compensation expense related to our employee stock purchase plan using an accelerated attribution method.

The following table provides the classification of stock-based compensation as reflected on our condensed consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):

Contract Balances

Unbilled Receivables and Contract Assets

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of customer invoicing. When revenue is recognized prior to invoicing and the right to the amount due from customers is conditioned only on the passage of time, we record an unbilled receivable on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our multi-year term license arrangements, which are typically billed annually, result in revenue recognition in advance of invoicing and the recognition of unbilled receivables.

As of ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022, invoicing~~2023, billing of our long-term unbilled receivables is expected to occur as follows (in thousands):

of ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022,~~2023, transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was ~~$256~~$288 million. We expect to recognize approximately ~~78%~~80% of the revenue within the next year and the remainder thereafter.

Deferred Contract Costs

Certain of our sales incentive programs meet the requirements to be capitalized. Depending upon the sales incentive program and the related revenue arrangement, such capitalized costs are amortized over the longer of (i) the product life, which is generally three to five years; or (ii) the term of the related revenue contract. We determined that a three to five year product life represents the period of benefit that we receive from these incremental costs based on both qualitative and quantitative factors, which include customer contracts, industry norms, and product upgrades. Total deferred contract costs were ~~$8.2~~$7.7 million and ~~$7.9~~$8.8 million as of ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022~~2023 and November 30, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively, and are included in other current assets and other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of deferred contract costs is included in sales and marketing expense on our condensed consolidated statement of operations and was minimal in all periods presented.

~~Note 15: Income Taxes~~

Our income tax provision for the third quarter of fiscal years 2022 and 2021 reflects our estimate of the effective tax rates expected to be applicable for the full fiscal years, adjusted for any discrete events, which are recorded in the period in which they occur. The estimates are reevaluated each quarter based on our estimated tax expense for the full fiscal year.

Our effective tax rate was 21% in the third fiscal quarter of 2022, compared to 22% in the third fiscal quarter of 2021.There were no significant discrete tax items in the third fiscal quarter of either 2022 or 2021.

Our federal income tax returns have been examined or are closed by statute for all years prior to fiscal year 2018. Our state income tax returns have been examined or are closed by statute for all years prior to fiscal year 2017.

Tax authorities for certain non-U.S. jurisdictions are also examining returns. With some exceptions, we are generally not subject to tax examinations in non-U.S. jurisdictions for years prior to fiscal year 2016 because they are closed by statute.

Note ~~16:~~13: Earnings per share

We compute basic earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. We compute diluted earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding dilutive stock options, restricted stock units and deferred stock units, using the treasury stock method. The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share on an interim basis (in thousands, except per share data):

We excluded stock awards representing approximately ~~1,777,000~~268,000 and ~~1,739,000~~304,000 shares of common stock from the calculation of diluted earnings per share in the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~August~~May 31, 2023, respectively, as these awards were anti-dilutive. We excluded stock awards representing approximately 1,904,000 and 1,720,000 shares of common stock from the calculation of diluted earnings per share in the three and six months ended May 31, 2022, respectively, as these awards were anti-dilutive. In the three and nine months ended August 31, 2021, we excluded stock awards representing 1,250,000 shares and 1,241,000 shares of common stock, respectively, from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive.

~~As a result of our adoption of ASU 2020-06 on December 1, 2021, the~~The dilutive impact of the Notes on our calculation of diluted earnings per share is considered using the if-converted method. However, because the principal amount of the Notes must be settled in cash, the dilutive impact of applying the if-converted method is limited to the in-the-money portion, if any, of the Notes. During the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022,~~2023, we did not include the Notes in our diluted earnings per share calculation because the conversion feature in the Notes was out of the money. ~~For periods prior to our December 1, 2021 adoption of ASU 2020-06, we applied the treasury stock method to account for the dilutive impact of the Notes for diluted earnings per share purposes.~~

Note ~~17:~~14: Segment Information

Operating segments are components of an enterprise that engage in business activities for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Our CODM is our Chief Executive Officer.

We operate as one operating segment: software products to develop, deploy, and manage high-impact ~~business~~ applications. Our CODM evaluates financial information on a consolidated basis. As we operate as one operating segment, the required financial segment information can be found in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 15: Cyber Related Matters

November 2022 Cyber Incident

Following the detection of irregular activity on certain portions of our corporate network, we engaged outside cybersecurity experts and other incident response professionals to conduct a forensic investigation and assess the extent and scope of the cyber incident. Cyber incident costs relate to the engagement of external cybersecurity experts and other incident response professionals. We incurred $1.5 million and $4.2 million of cyber incident costs for the three and six month periods ended May 31, 2023, respectively. Costs are provided net of received and expected insurance recoveries of approximately $3.0 million, which was recognized during the first quarter of fiscal year 2023. The timing of recognizing insurance recoveries may differ from the timing of recognizing the associated expenses.

MOVEit Vulnerability

On the evening of May 28, 2023, our MOVEit technical support team received an initial customer support call indicating unusual activity within their MOVEit Transfer instance. An investigative team was mobilized and, on May 30, 2023, the

investigative team discovered a zero-day vulnerability in MOVEit Transfer (including our cloud-hosted version of MOVEit Transfer known as MOVEit Cloud). The investigative team determined the zero-day vulnerability (the “MOVEit Vulnerability”) could provide for unauthorized escalated privileges and access to the customer’s underlying environment in both MOVEit Transfer (the on-premise version) and MOVEit Cloud (a cloud-hosted version of MOVEit Transfer that we deploy in both (i) a public cloud format, as well as (ii) for a small group of customers, in a customer-dedicated cloud instance which is managed separately from the public-cloud).

The Company has engaged outside cybersecurity experts and other incident response professionals to conduct a forensic investigation and assess the extent and scope of the MOVEit Vulnerability. As the investigation remains ongoing, the Company will continue to assess the potential impact on its business, operations and financial results. MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud represented approximately 4% in aggregate of the Company’s revenue for the six months ended May 31, 2023.

Litigation and Governmental Investigations

As of the date of the filing of this report on Form 10-Q, (i) four customers that claim to have been impacted by the MOVEit Vulnerability have indicated that they intend to seek indemnification from the Company related to the MOVEit Vulnerability, and (ii) there have been eleven class action lawsuits filed by individuals who claim to have been impacted by exfiltration of data from the environments of our MOVEit Transfer customers. The Company has also been cooperating with several inquiries and one formal investigation from domestic and foreign law enforcement agencies and data privacy regulators.

Expenses Incurred and Future Costs

Given that the MOVEit Vulnerability occurred near the end of the current quarter, we incurred minimal costs during the second quarter of fiscal year 2023. We expect to incur investigation, legal and professional services expenses associated with the MOVEit Vulnerability in future periods. We will recognize these expenses as services are received, net of received and expected insurance recoveries. While a loss from these matters is possible, we cannot reasonably estimate a range of possible losses at this time and our investigation into the matter is ongoing. Furthermore, with respect to the litigation, the proceedings remain in the early stages, alleged damages have not been specified, there is uncertainty as to the likelihood of a class or classes being certified or the ultimate size of any class if certified, and there are significant factual and legal issues to be resolved. Therefore, we have not recorded a loss contingency liability for the MOVEit Vulnerability as of May 31, 2023.

Insurance Coverage

We maintain cybersecurity insurance and other types of insurance coverage for up to $15.0 million in losses, which are expected to reduce our exposure to liabilities arising from the November 2022 cyber incident and the MOVEit Vulnerability. We will pursue recoveries to the maximum extent available under the policies. As of May 31, 2023, we have recorded approximately $3.0 million in insurance recoveries, all of which was related to the November 2022 cyber incident, providing us with $12.0 million of additional coverage (which is subject to a $0.5 million per claim deductible).

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 10-Q may contain information that are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Whenever we use words such as "believe," "may," "could," "would," "might," "should," "expect," "intend," "plan," "estimate," "target," "anticipate" and negatives and derivatives of these or similar expressions, or when we make statements concerning future financial results, product offerings or other events that have not yet occurred, we are making forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon our present intent, beliefs or expectations, but are not guaranteed to occur and may not occur. Actual future results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by our forward-looking statements due to various factors which are more fully described in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2022 Annual Report as well as the risk factors described in Part II, Item 1A of this Report on Form 10-Q. Although we have sought to identify the most significant risks to our business, we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized. We also cannot assure you that we have identified all possible issues that we might face. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements that we make.

Overview

Progress is the trusted provider of the best products to develop, deploy and manage high-impact applications. We enable our customers to develop the applications and experiences they need, deploy where and how they want, and manage it all safely and securely. Progress helps customers drive faster cycles of innovation, fuel momentum and accelerate their path to success.

The key tenets of our strategic plan and operating model are as follows:

Be the Trusted Provider of the Best Products to Develop, Deploy and Manage High Impact Applications. A key element of our strategy is centered on building and maintaining the best products and tools enterprises need to build, deploy, and manage modern, strategic business applications. We offer these products and tools to both new customers and partners, as well as our existing partner and customer ecosystems.

Focus on Customer and Partner Retention to Drive Recurring Revenue and Profitability. Our organizational philosophy and operating principles focus primarily on customer and partner retention and success, and a streamlined operating approach to drive predictable and stable recurring revenue and high levels of profitability.

Follow a Total Growth Strategy through Accretive M&A. We are pursuing a total growth strategy driven by accretive acquisitions ofbusinesses within the infrastructure software space, with products that appeal to both IT organizations and individual developers. These acquisitions must meet strict financial and other criteria, which help further our goal to provide significant stockholder returns by providing scale and increased cash flows. In April 2019, we acquired Ipswitch, Inc.; in October 2020, we acquired Chef Software, Inc.; in November 2021, we acquired Kemp Technologies; and in February 2023, we acquired MarkLogic. These acquisitions met our strict financial criteria.

In recent years, our total growth strategy, described above, has resulted in the rapid expansion of our product portfolio. As our portfolio evolves, we continuously evaluate our organization for additional synergies and efficiencies. In connection therewith, we are working to realign our go-to-market, product, and operational teams and to increase centralization of shared services and functions across our company. We believe that these changes will improve collaboration among the teams that develop, sell, and support our products; enhance our ability to integrate acquired businesses; and lead to greater system uniformity and increased operating efficiency.

Employ a Multi-Faceted Capital Allocation Strategy. Our capital allocation policy emphasizes accretive M&A, which allows us to expand our business and drive significant stockholder returns. We also utilize dividends and share repurchases to return capital to stockholders. We intend to continue to repurchase our shares in sufficient quantities to offset dilution from our equity plans and to continue to return a portion of our annual cash flows from operations to stockholders in the form of dividends.

We expect to continue to pursue acquisitions meeting our financial criteria that are designed to expand our business and drive significant stockholder returns. As a result, our expected uses of cash could change, our cash position could be reduced, and we may incur additional debt obligations to the extent we complete additional acquisitions. However, we currently believe that existing cash balances, together with funds generated from operations and amounts available under our Credit Facility, will be sufficient to finance our operations and meet our foreseeable cash requirements, including quarterly cash dividends and stock repurchases to Progress stockholders, as applicable, through at least the next twelve months.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. We make estimates and assumptions in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from these estimates. The most significant estimates relate ~~to: the timing and amounts of~~to revenue recognition ~~including the determination of the nature~~ and timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations, the standalone selling price of performance obligations, and the transaction price allocated to performance obligations; the realization of tax assets and estimates of tax liabilities; fair values of investments in marketable securities; assets held for sale; intangible assets and goodwill valuations; the recognition and disclosure of contingent liabilities; the collectability of accounts receivable; and assumptions used to determine the fair value of stock-based compensation. This is not a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies.business combinations. For further information regarding the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of our ~~2021 10-K.~~

~~Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements~~

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains certain safe harbor provisions regarding forward-looking statements. This Form 10-Q, and other information provided by us or statements made by our directors, officers or employees from time to time, may contain “forward-looking” statements and information, which involve risks and uncertainties. Actual future results may differ materially. Statements indicating that we “believe,” “may,” “could,” “would,” “might,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “target,” “anticipate” and “continue,” are forward-looking, as are other statements concerning future financial results, product offerings or other events that2022 Annual Report. There have not yet occurred. There are a number of factors that could cause actual results or future events to differ materially from those anticipated by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: (i) Economic, geopolitical and market conditions can adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, including our revenue growth and profitability, which in turn could adversely affect our stock price; (ii) we may fail to achieve our financial forecasts due to such factors as delays or size reductions in transactions, fewer large transactions in a particular quarter, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, or a decline in our renewal rates for contracts; (iii) our ability to successfully manage transitions to new business models and markets, including an increased emphasis on a cloud and subscription strategy, may not be successful; (iv) if we are unable to develop new or sufficiently differentiated products and services, or to enhance and improve our existing products and services in a timely manner to meet market demand, partners and customers may not purchase new software licenses or subscriptions or purchase or renew support contracts; (v) We depend upon our extensive partner channel and we may not be successful in retaining or expanding our relationships with channel

partners; (vi) our international sales and operations subject us to additional risks that can adversely affect our operating results, including risks relating to foreign currency gains and losses; (vii) If the security measures for our software, services, other offerings or our internal information technology infrastructure are compromised or subject to a successful cyber-attack, or if our software offerings containbeen no significant coding or configuration errors, we may experience reputational harm, legal claims and financial exposure; (viii) we have made acquisitions, and may make acquisitions in the future, and those acquisitions may not be successful, may involve unanticipated costs or other integration issues or may disrupt our existing operations; (ix) delay or failure to realize the expected synergies and benefits of the Kemp acquisition could negatively impact our future results of operations and financial condition; (x) the continuing impact of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak on our employees, customers, partners, and the global financial markets could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition; (xi) Russia's recent invasion of Ukraine, and the international community's response, have created substantial political and economic disruption, uncertainty, and risk. For further information regarding risks and uncertainties associated with Progress' business, please refer to Part II, Item 1A (Risk Factors) in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as filed with the SEC on April 7, 2022; and in Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors) in our 2021 10-K. Although we have sought to identify the most significant riskschanges to our business, we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized. We also cannot assure you that we have identified all possible issues which we might face. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements that we make.critical accounting policies and estimates since our 2022 Annual Report.

Use of Constant Currency

Revenue from our international operations has historically represented a substantial portion of our total revenue. As a result, our revenue results have been impacted, and we expect will continue to be impacted, by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For example, if the local currencies of our foreign subsidiaries strengthen, our consolidated results stated in U.S. dollars are positively impacted.

As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding ~~period to period~~period-to-period comparisons, we believe the presentation of revenue growth rates on a constant currency basis enhances the understanding of our revenue results and evaluation of our

performance in comparison to prior periods. The constant currency information presented is calculated by translating current period results using prior period weighted average foreign currency exchange rates. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP.

~~Overview~~

Progress Software Corporation ("Progress," the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") is dedicated to propelling business forward in a technology-driven world. As the trusted provider of the leading products to develop, deploy and manage high-impact applications, Progress enables customers to develop the applications and experiences the need, deploy where and how they want and manage it all safely and securely. We operate as one operating segment.

~~The key tenets of our strategic plan and operating model are as follows:~~

~~Trusted Partner of the Best Products to Develop, Deploy and Manage High Impact Business Applications~~. A key element of our strategy is centered on providing the platform and tools enterprises need to build, deploy, and manage modern, strategic business applications. We offer these products and tools to both new customers and partners as well as our existing partner and customer ecosystems. This strategy builds on our vast experience in application development that we've acquired over the past 40 years.

~~Focus on Customer and Partner Retention to Drive Recurring Revenue and Profitability~~. Our organizational philosophy and operating principles focus primarily on customer and partner retention and success and a streamlined operating approach in order to more efficiently drive, predictable and stable recurring revenue and high levels of profitability.

~~Total Growth Strategy Driven by Accretive M&A.~~ ~~We are pursuing a total growth strategy driven by accretive acquisitions of~~businesses within the infrastructure software space, with products that appeal to both IT organizations and individual developers. These acquisitions must meet strict financial and other criteria, which help further our goal to provide significant stockholder returns by providing scale and increased cash flows. In April 2019, we acquired Ipswitch, Inc.; in October 2020, we acquired Chef Software, Inc.; and in November 2021, we acquired Kemp Technologies. These acquisitions met our strict financial criteria.

In recent years, our total growth strategy has resulted in the rapid expansion of our product portfolio. As our portfolio continues to evolve, we continuously evaluate our organization for additional synergies and efficiencies. Therefore, we are working to realign our go-to-market, product, and operational teams, as well as the increased centralization of additional shared services

and functions across our company. We believe that these planned changes will improve collaboration among the teams that develop, sell, and support our products; enhance our ability to integrate acquired businesses; and lead to greater system uniformity and increased operating efficiency.

~~Multi-Faceted Capital Allocation Approach~~. Our capital allocation policy emphasizes accretive M&A, which allows us to expand our business and drive significant stockholder returns, and utilizes dividends and share repurchases to return capital to stockholders. We intend to repurchase our shares in sufficient quantities to offset dilution from our equity plans. Lastly, we return a significant portion of our annual cash flows from operations to stockholders in the form of dividends.

In the first nine months of 2022, we repurchased and retired 1.7 million shares of our common stock for $75.5 million. As of August 31, 2022, there was $79.5 million remaining under share repurchase authorization. The timing and amount of any shares repurchased will be determined by management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors, and the Board of Directors may choose to suspend, expand or discontinue the repurchase program at any time.

We began paying quarterly cash dividends of $0.125 per share of common stock to Progress stockholders in December 2016 and increased the quarterly cash dividend annually in fiscal years 2017, 2018 and 2019. On September 22, 2020, our Board of Directors approved an additional increase of 6% to our quarterly cash dividend from $0.165 to $0.175 and declared a quarterly dividend of $0.175 per share of common stock. Future declarations of dividends and the establishment of future record and payment dates are subject to the final determination of our Board of Directors.

We will continue to pursue acquisitions meeting our financial criteria and designed to expand our business and drive significant stockholder returns. As a result, our expected uses of cash could change, our cash position could be reduced, and we may incur additional debt obligations to the extent we complete additional acquisitions. However, we believe that existing cash balances, together with funds generated from operations and amounts available under our credit facility, will be sufficient to finance our operations and meet our foreseeable cash requirements, including quarterly cash dividends and stock repurchases to Progress stockholders, as applicable, through at least the next twelve months.

We derive a significant portion of our revenue from international operations, which are primarily conducted in foreign currencies. As a result, changes in the value of these foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar have significantly impacted our results of operations and may impact our future results of operations. Since approximately one-third of our revenue is denominated in foreign currency, and given the recent volatility in the global economy, our revenue results in the third fiscal quarter of 2022 were impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Select Performance Metrics:

Management evaluates our financial performance using a number of financial and operating metrics. These metrics are periodically reviewed and revised to reflect changes in our business.

Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)

We are providing an ARR performance metric to help investors better understand and assess the performance of our business because our mix of revenue generated from recurring sources has increased in recent years. ARR represents the annualized contract value for all active and contractually binding term-based contracts at the end of a period. ARR includes maintenance, software upgrade rights, both public and dedicated cloud instances and on-premises subscription-based transactions and managed services. ARR mitigates fluctuations due to seasonality, contract term and the sales mix of subscriptions for term-based licenses and SaaS. ARR is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. ARR does not have any standardized meaning and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. ARR should be viewed independently of ~~GAAP~~ revenue and deferred revenue and is not intended to be combined with or to replace ~~not be superior to,~~ either of those items. ARR is not a forecast and the active contracts at the end of a reporting period used in calculating ARR may or may not be extended or renewed by our customers.

We define ARR as the annual recurring revenue of term-based contracts from all customers at a point in time. We calculate ARR by taking monthly recurring revenue, or MRR, and multiplying it by 12. MRR for each month is calculated by aggregating, for all customers during that month, monthly revenue from committed contractual amounts, additional usage and monthly subscriptions. ~~All periods are reported in~~The calculation is done at constant currency using the current year budgeted exchange ~~rates.~~rates for all periods presented.

Our ARR was ~~$495.0~~$569.0 million and ~~$439.0~~$479.0 million as of ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, respectively, which is an increase of ~~12.7%~~19% year-over-year. The growth in our ARR is primarily driven by the acquisition of ~~Kemp.~~MarkLogic.

Net ~~Dollar~~ Retention Rate

We calculate net ~~dollar~~ retention rate as of a period end by starting with the ARR from the cohort of all customers as of 12 months prior to such period end (“("Prior Period ~~ARR”~~ARR"). We then calculate the ARR from these same customers as of the current period end (“("Current Period ~~ARR”~~ARR"). Current Period ARR includes any expansion and is net of contraction or attrition over the last 12 months but excludes ARR from new customers in the current period. We then divide the total Current Period ARR by the total Prior Period ARR to arrive at the net ~~dollar~~ retention rate. Net retention rate is not calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Our net ~~dollar~~ retention rates have generally ranged between 101% and 102% for all periods presented. Our high net ~~dollar~~ retention rates illustrate our predictable and durable top line performance.

As of ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022, $56.5~~2023, $77.1 million of our cash and cash equivalents ~~and short-term investments~~ was held by our foreign subsidiaries. Foreign cash includes unremitted foreign earnings, which are invested indefinitely outside of the U.S. As such, it is not available to fund our domestic operations. If we were to repatriate these earnings, we may be subject to income tax withholding in certain tax jurisdictions and a portion of the repatriated earnings may be subject to U.S. income tax. However, we do not anticipate that this would have a material adverse impact on our liquidity.

Share Repurchase Program

In January ~~2020,~~2023, our Board of Directors increased ~~the total~~our share repurchase authorization ~~from $75~~by $150 million, to ~~$250~~an aggregate authorization of $228.0 million. In the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~August~~May 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we repurchased and retired ~~1.7~~0.5 million shares for ~~$75.5~~$30.0 million and ~~0.8~~1.1 million shares for ~~$35.0~~$51.5 million, respectively.

As of ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022,~~2023, there was ~~$79.5~~$198.0 million remaining under the current authorization.

Dividends

~~We began paying quarterly cash dividends to Progress stockholders in December 2016, and have paid a quarterly cash dividend since that time.~~ On ~~September 23, 2022,~~June 21, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.175 per share of common stock, which will be paid on ~~December~~September 15, ~~2022~~2023 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on ~~December~~September 1, ~~2022.~~2023. Future declarations of dividends and the establishment of future record and payment dates are subject to the final determination of our Board of Directors.

Restructuring Activities

~~During~~See Note 12 to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021, we restructured our operations in connection with the acquisition of Kemp. This restructuring resulted in a reduction in redundant positions, primarily within administrative functions of Kemp. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2022, we incurred expenses of $0.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, relating to this restructuring. The expenses are recorded as restructuring expenses in thecondensed consolidated statements of operations. We expect to incur additional expenses as part of this action related to employee costs and facility closures as we consolidate offices in various locations during fiscal year 2022, but we do not expect these costs to be material. Cash disbursements for expenses incurred to date under this restructuring are expected to be made through fiscal year 2022. Accordingly, the balance of the restructuring liability of $0.1 million is included in other accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at August 31, 2022.financial statements.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020, we restructured our operations in connection with the acquisition of Chef. Refer to Note 7: Business Combinations for further discussion. This restructuring resulted in a reduction in redundant positions, primarily within administrative functions of Chef. For the threeLong-term Debt and nine months ended August 31, 2022, we incurred expenses of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, relating to this restructuring. Cash disbursements for expenses incurred to date under this restructuring are expected to be made through fiscal year 2027. Accordingly, $1.0 million and $3.0 million of the total balance of the restructuring liability of $4.0 million is included in short-term and long-term lease liabilities, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at August 31, 2022. We do not expect to incur additional material expenses as part of this action.

Credit Facility

On January 25, 2022, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") providing for a $275.0 million secured term loan and a $300.0 million secured revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility may be increased, and new term loan commitments may be entered into, by up to an additional amount upSee Note 7 to the ~~sum of (A) the greater of (x) $260.0 million and (y) 100% of our~~condensed consolidated EBITDA and (B) an unlimited additional amount subject to pro forma compliance with a consolidated senior secured net leverage ratio of no greater than 3.75 to 1.00 if the existing or additional lenders are willing to make such increased commitments. This new credit facility replaces our prior secured credit facility dated April 30, 2019.

~~The amount of the term loan outstanding under our prior secured credit facility was incorporated into the amended and restated credit facility.~~

The revolving line of credit has sublimits for swing line loans up to $25.0 million and for the issuance of standby letters of credit in a face amount up to $25.0 million. We expect to use the revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes, which may include the acquisitions of other businesses, and may also use it for working capital.

Interest rates for the Credit Agreement are determined by reference to a term benchmark rate or a base rate at our option and would range from 1.00% to 2.00% above the term benchmark rate or would range from 0.00% to 1.00% above the defined base rate for base rate borrowings, in each case based upon our leverage ratio. Additionally, we may borrow certain foreign currencies at rates set in the same range above the respective term benchmark rates for those currencies, based on our leverage ratio. We will incur a quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the revolving credit facility, ranging from 0.125% to 0.275% per annum, based upon our leverage ratio. At closing of the revolving credit facility, the applicable interest rate and commitment fee are at the third lowest rate in each range.

The Credit Agreement matures on the earlier of (i) January 25, 2027 and (ii) the date that is 181 days prior to the maturity date of our Notes subject to certain conditions as set forth in the amended credit agreement, including the repayment of the Notes, the refinancing of the Notes including a maturity date that is at least 181 days after January 25, 2027 and compliance with a liquidity test, when all amounts outstanding will be due and payable in full. The revolving credit facility does not require amortization of principal. The term loan requires repayment of principal at the end of each fiscal quarter, beginning with the fiscal quarter ending February 28, 2022. The first eight payments are in the principal amount of $1.7 million each, the following four payments are in the principal amount of $3.4 million each, the following eight payments are in the principal amount of $5.2 million each and the last payment is of the remaining principal amount. Any amounts outstanding under the term loan thereafter would be due on the maturity date. The term loan may be prepaid before maturity in whole or in part at our option without penalty or premium.

We are the sole borrower under the credit facility. Our obligations under the amended credit agreement are guaranteed by each of our material domestic subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all of our assets and such material domestic subsidiaries, as well as 100% of the capital stock of our domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of our first-tier foreign subsidiaries, in each case, subject to certain exceptions as described in the amended credit agreement. Future material domestic subsidiaries will be required to guaranty our obligations under the amended credit agreement, and to grant security interests in substantially all of their assets to secure such obligations. The amended credit agreement generally prohibits, with certain exceptions, any other liens on our assets and the assets of our subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions as described in the amended credit agreement.

The amended credit agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict us and our subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, grant liens, make investments, make acquisitions, incur indebtedness, merge or consolidate, dispose of assets, pay dividends or make distributions, repurchase stock, change the nature of its business, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and enter into burdensome agreements, in each case subject to customary

~~exceptions for a credit facility of this size and type. We are also required to maintain compliance with a consolidated interest charge coverage ratio and a consolidated total net leverage ratio.~~

The amended credit agreement includes customary events of default that include, among other things, non-payment defaults, covenant defaults, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross default to material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency defaults, material judgment defaults, ERISA defaults and a change of control default. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the obligations under the amended credit agreement.

The outstanding balance of the term loan as of August 31, 2022 was $269.8 million, with $6.9 million due in the next 12 months. The term loan may be prepaid before maturity in whole or in part at our option without penalty or premium. The interest rate as of August 31, 2022 was 3.81%. As of August 31, 2022, there were no amounts outstanding under the revolving line of credit and $2.1 million of letters of credit outstanding. Refer to Note 8: Debt for further discussion.

~~Convertible Senior Notes~~

In April 2021, we issued, in a private placement, Convertible Senior Notes (the "Notes") with an aggregate principal amount of $325 million, due April 15, 2026, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. There are no required principal payments prior to the maturity of the Notes. In addition, the Company granted the initial purchasers of the Notes an option to purchase up to an additional $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes, of which $35 million of additional Notes were purchased for total proceeds of $360 million. The Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 1%, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on October 15, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 had no impact on the Company's debt covenant compliance under the current arrangement. Refer to Note 8: Debt for further discussion.financial statements.

Other agreements with our customers provide indemnification for claims relating to property damage or personal injury resulting from the performance of services by us or our subcontractors. Historically, our costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims relating to such indemnity agreements have been insignificant.

Refer to Note 1 - Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation (Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q) for further discussion.

Recent Developments: MOVEit Vulnerability

Description of Event

As disclosed via a Form 8-K filed on June 5, 2023, on the evening of May 28, 2023 (Eastern Time), our MOVEit technical support team received an initial customer support call indicating unusual activity within their MOVEit Transfer instance. An investigative team was mobilized and, on May 30, 2023, the investigative team discovered a zero-day vulnerability in MOVEit Transfer (including our cloud-hosted version of MOVEit Transfer known as MOVEit Cloud). The investigative team determined the zero-day vulnerability (the “MOVEit Vulnerability”) could provide for unauthorized escalated privileges and access to the customer’s underlying environment in both MOVEit Transfer (the on-premise version) and MOVEit Cloud (the cloud-hosted version of MOVEit Transfer that we deploy in both (i) a public cloud format, as well as, (ii) for a small group of customers, in a customer-dedicated cloud instance that is managed separately from the public-cloud). We promptly took down

MOVEit Cloud for further investigation and notified all then-known MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud customers in order to apprise them of the MOVEit Vulnerability and alert them to immediate remedial actions. In parallel, our team developed a patch for all supported versions of MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud, which was released on May 31, 2023, and allowed for the restoration of MOVEit Cloud that same day.

MOVEit Transfer is a secure file-transfer software that is installed by customers on-premise and does not have any on-going telemetry after installation that allows us to track, among other things, a customer’s product usage, deployed version, file transfer activity (including any data that is transferred by or stored within the customer’s MOVEit Transfer instance), or whether the customer has applied any security patches or bug fixes to their MOVEit Transfer instance. However, certain MOVEit Transfer customers have reported that malicious threat actors have exploited the MOVEit Vulnerability to obtain access to their environments and portions of their sensitive customer data.

Furthermore, while we continue to investigate this vulnerability in MOVEit Cloud, we currently have not seen any evidence that sensitive customer data has been exfiltrated from the public MOVEit Cloud instances. For a small group of customers, we provide a dedicated MOVEit Cloud instance which is hosted, for each such customer, separate and apart from the public instances of our MOVEit Cloud platform. Two of our dedicated MOVEit Cloud customers have reported that malicious threat actors have exploited the MOVEit Vulnerability to obtain access to its environment. As of the date of the filing of this report on Form 10-Q, one such customer has confirmed that no sensitive data was compromised and another has not revealed the nature of the data that may have been accessed.

Since our disclosures regarding the MOVEit Vulnerability, various third-parties have been actively scrutinizing MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud, leading to the discovery and our prompt patching of additional vulnerabilities. We are not aware of any evidence that these additional vulnerabilities were exploited by malicious threat actors prior to creating patches to address them and making those patches available to our MOVEit Transfer customers and applying those patches to the MOVEit Cloud environments – both the public and dedicated cloud instances.

Progress has remained fully operational at all times before and after the discovery of the MOVEit Vulnerability and, as of the time of the filing of this report on Form 10-Q, has not uncovered evidence of unauthorized activity or impact to products beyond MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud. MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud represented approximately 4% in aggregate of the Company’s revenue for the six months ended May 31, 2023.

Progress has engaged outside cybersecurity experts and other incident response professionals to conduct a forensic investigation and assess the extent and scope of the MOVEit Vulnerability. While Progress’ investigation remains ongoing, the Company (i) has and is continuing to implement a series of additional security and related measures aimed at addressing the MOVEit Vulnerability and subsequently discovered vulnerabilities and further strengthening the overall security of our MOVEit applications, (ii) has engaged outside legal counsel to conduct a thorough independent investigation of the MOVEit Vulnerability, and (iii) has engaged with federal law enforcement and other federal agencies with respect to the MOVEit Vulnerability. As the investigation remains ongoing, Progress will continue to assess the potential impact on its business, operations and financial results.

Expenses Incurred and Amounts Accrued

Given that the MOVEit Vulnerability was only discovered on May 30, 2023, and our second quarter ended on May 31, 2023, we incurred minimal costs and expenses with respect to the MOVEit Vulnerability during the second quarter.

Future Costs

We expect to incur investigation, legal and professional services expenses associated with the MOVEit Vulnerability in future periods. We will recognize these expenses as services are received, net of received and expected insurance recoveries. Our financial liability arising from any of the foregoing will depend on many factors, including limitations contained within our customer contracts, the amount of private litigation, and whether governmental entities launch formal investigations into the matter, and it is not possible at this time to estimate the quantitative impact of any such liability with any reasonable degree of certainty.

Insurance Coverage

We maintain cybersecurity insurance and other types of insurance coverage for up to $15.0 million in losses, which are expected to reduce our exposure to liabilities arising from the MOVEit Vulnerability. We will pursue recoveries to the maximum extent available under the policies. As of May 31, 2023, we have recorded approximately $3.0 million in insurance recoveries, all of which was related to the November 2022 cyber incident, providing us with $12.0 million of additional coverage (which is subject to a $0.5 million per claim deductible).

Future Capital Investments

In addition, we may accelerate or make additional investments in our information technology systems, but we are unable to estimate such investments because the nature and scope has not yet been determined. We currently do not expect such amounts to be material to any fiscal period.

Effect on Sales and Customer Loyalty

The MOVEit Vulnerability may adversely affect our future performance and financial results. Customer confidence in Progress may also be impacted by the MOVEit Vulnerability. Through our response speed and transparent communications, we are committed to, and actively engaged in, activities to restore any loss in customer confidence. We currently cannot predict the length or extent of any ongoing impact to sales.

Litigation and Governmental Investigations

As of the date of the filing of this report on Form 10-Q, (i) four customers that claim to have been impacted by the MOVEit Vulnerability have indicated that they intend to seek indemnification from us related to the MOVEit Vulnerability, and (ii) there have been eleven class action lawsuits filed by individuals who claim to have been impacted by exfiltration of data from the environments of our MOVEit Transfer customers. We have also been cooperating with several inquiries and one formal investigation from domestic and foreign law enforcement agencies and data privacy regulators. As of the date of the filing of this report, the law enforcement investigation that we are cooperating with is not an enforcement action or formal governmental investigation of which we have been told that we are a target.

Such claims and investigations may have an adverse effect on how we operate our business and our results of operations, and in the future, we may be subject to additional governmental or regulatory investigations, as well as additional litigation or indemnification claims. While a loss from these matters is possible, we cannot reasonably estimate a range of possible losses at this time and our investigation into the matter is ongoing. Furthermore, with respect to the litigation, the proceedings remain in the early stages, alleged damages have not been specified, there is uncertainty as to the likelihood of a class or classes being certified or the ultimate size of any class if certified, and there are significant factual and legal issues to be resolved. As such, we have not recorded a loss contingency liability for litigation, claims and governmental investigations in the second quarter. See Note 15 to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1, Financial Statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

During the ~~third quarter~~first six months of fiscal year ~~2022,~~2023, with the exception of drawing down on our revolving line of credit as described in Note 7, there were no significant changes to our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk. Please refer to Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk included in our ~~2021 10-K,~~2022 Annual Report, for a more complete discussion of the market risks we encounter.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our management maintains disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the ~~“Exchange Act”~~"Exchange Act") that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the requisite time periods and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company acquired MarkLogic on February 7, 2023. Management excluded MarkLogic from its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls as of May 31, 2023. MarkLogic represented, in aggregate, approximately

15% of the Company’s total consolidated assets (excluding goodwill and intangibles) and approximately 14% of total consolidated revenues, as of and for the three months ended May 31, 2023.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated our “internal control over financial reporting” as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) to determine whether any changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, thereThere were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended ~~August~~May 31, ~~2022~~2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, which arise in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management currently does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters will have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

We operate in a rapidly changing environment that involves certain risks and uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. In addition to the ~~information~~updated risk factors provided ~~in this report,~~below, please refer to Part ~~II,~~I, Item ~~1A:~~ 1A. Risk Factors in our ~~Quarterly~~2022 Annual Report ~~on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2022~~ for a more complete discussion regarding certain factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results.

~~Our realignment initiatives may disrupt our operations and we may not achieve the expected benefits from our efforts.~~

~~As described in~~ ~~Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations~~ ~~in Part I, Item 2 above, we are working~~If our products contain software defects or security flaws, it could harm our revenues by causing us to realign our go-to-market, product, and operational teams, as well as the increased centralization of additional shared services and functions across our company. Such realignment initiatives may be complexlose customers and could ~~result~~increase our liabilities by exposing us to costly governmental investigations or litigation. For example, the exploitation of the zero-day MOVEit Vulnerability in ~~significant costs~~May 2023 has resulted in government inquiries, a formal law enforcement investigation, and ~~expenses, which could negatively impact~~private litigation. Our products, despite extensive testing and quality control, may contain defects, vulnerabilities or security flaws. In the ordinary course of business, we may need to issue corrective releases of our ~~reputation, financial condition, operating results~~software products to fix any defects, vulnerabilities, or security flaws. Depending upon the severity of any such matters, the detection and ~~shareholder value. There~~correction of such matters can be ~~no assurance that~~time consuming and costly. If any such issues are exploited by malicious threat actors, we can accomplish or implement all of the desired initiatives, or that the activities under those initiatives will result in the desired synergies or efficiencies. Furthermore, management has dedicated, and will continuecould experience, among other things, material adverse impact to ~~dedicate, significant time and effort~~our revenues due to implementing such realignment initiatives. These efforts may divert management’s focus and resources from our core business, other corporate initiatives, or strategic opportunities. We may also experience a loss of ~~continuity, loss of accumulated knowledge,~~customers and increased liabilities due to costly governmental investigations or ~~inefficiency during transitional periods. Additionally, efforts related to~~litigation. In addition, any such matters could affect the ~~implementation of these initiatives could yield unintended consequences (e.g., adversely affecting our~~ ability ~~to execute on merger and acquisition objectives, confusion or distraction~~ of our ~~management and employees, reduced employee morale and retention, delaying~~products to work with hardware or other software products, delay the development ~~and introduction~~or release of new products ~~and technologies)~~or new versions of products (due to a reallocation of our internal resources), ~~which may negatively affect our business, sales, financial condition and results of operations.~~

~~Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates have had, and could continue to have, an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.~~

~~Changes in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar have, and could continue to,~~and/or adversely affect our results of operations and financial position. In recent periods, as the value of the U.S. dollar has strengthened in comparison to certain foreign currencies (particularly in EMEA), our reported international revenue has been reduced because foreign currencies translate into fewer U.S. dollars. As approximately one-thirdmarket acceptance of our ~~revenue is denominated in foreign currencies, these exchange rate fluctuations have impacted, and we expect will continue to impact, our revenue results. Please see~~ ~~Management’s Discussion and Analysis~~products, all of ~~Financial Condition and Results of Operations~~ in Part I, Item 2 for additional information. We seek to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates by entering into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge certain actual and forecasted transactions of selected currencies (mainly in Europe, Brazil, India and Australia). Our currency hedging transactions may not be effective in reducing the adverse impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Further, as geopolitical volatility around the world increases, there is increasing risk of the imposition of exchange or price controls, or other restrictions on the conversion of foreign currencies, which could have a material adverse effect on our ~~business.~~overall performance.

~~We are currently operating~~On the evening of May 28, 2023 (Eastern Time), our MOVEit technical support team received an initial customer support call indicating unusual activity within their MOVEit Transfer instance. An investigative team was mobilized and, on May 30, 2023, the investigative team discovered a zero-day vulnerability in MOVEit Transfer (including our cloud-hosted versions of MOVEit Transfer, known as MOVEit Cloud). The investigative team determined that the zero-day vulnerability (the “MOVEit Vulnerability”) could provide for unauthorized escalated privileges and access to the customer’s underlying environment in both MOVEit Transfer (the on-premise version) and MOVEit Cloud (a cloud-hosted version of MOVEit Transfer that we deploy in both (i) a public cloud format, as well as (ii) for a small group of customers, in a ~~period~~customer-dedicated cloud instance which is managed separately from the public-cloud).

However, certain MOVEit Transfer customers have reported that malicious threat actors have exploited the MOVEit Vulnerability to obtain access to their environments and ~~disruption following~~portions of their sensitive customer data.

Furthermore, while we continue to investigate this vulnerability in MOVEit Cloud, we currently have not seen any evidence that sensitive customer data has been exfiltrated from the ~~escalation~~public MOVEit Cloud instances. For a small group of ~~geopolitical tensions in February 2022 with Russia’s invasion~~customers, we provide a dedicated MOVEit Cloud instance which is hosted, for each such customer, separate and apart from the public instances of ~~Ukraine.

As of the date of the filing of this report on Form 10-Q, one such customer has confirmed that no sensitive data was compromised and another has ~~already~~not revealed the nature of the data that may have been accessed.

As of the date of the filing of this report on Form 10-Q, these events have led to ~~market disruptions, including volatile capital markets, higher interest rates~~several domestic and ~~debt capital costs, diminished liquidity~~foreign government inquiries, one formal investigation from a law enforcement agency, and ~~credit availability, declines in consumer confidence and discretionary spending, as well as supply chain disruptions and increases in costs~~private litigation, all of ~~certain raw materials and transportation,~~ which have in turn contributed to global inflationary pressures.

More specifically, as of the date of the filing of this report on ~~revenue generated outside of North America (which~~Form 10-Q, (i) four customers that claim to have been impacted by the MOVEit Vulnerability have indicated that they intend to seek indemnification from us related to the MOVEit Vulnerability, and (ii) there have been eleven class action lawsuits filed by

We have also been cooperating with inquiries from several domestic and foreign law enforcement agencies and data privacy regulators, as well as one formal investigation from a law enforcement agency. Such claims and investigations may have an adverse effect on how we operate our business and our ~~reliance on revenue generated~~results of operations, and in ~~EMEA (which constituted 32%~~the future, we may be subject to additional governmental or regulatory investigations, as well as additional litigation or indemnification claims. Following the discovery of the MOVEit Vulnerability and the various remedial actions described here, we have discovered and patched additional vulnerabilities within the MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud platforms. While we are not aware of any evidence that these additional vulnerabilities were exploited by malicious threat actors prior to creating patches to address them and making those patches available to our MOVEit Transfer customers and applying those patches to the MOVEit Cloud environments (both the public and dedicated cloud instances) we cannot guarantee that we have or will uncover and/or address all vulnerabilities within the MOVEit platform or any of our ~~total revenue~~other products prior to exploitation.

Our financial liability arising from any of the foregoing will depend on many factors, including the extent to which governmental entities investigate the matter and limitations contained within our customer contracts; therefore, we are unable at this time to estimate the quantitative impact of any such liability with any reasonable degree of certainty. As the investigation remains ongoing, we will continue to assess the potential impact of the MOVEit Vulnerability on our business, operations, and financial results.

Our customers and partners may seek refunds, delay implementation timelines, delay payment, fail to pay us in ~~fiscal 2021), disruption~~accordance with the terms of ~~commercial activities~~their agreements, or terminate use of our products, all of which can have an adverse affect on us.If customers or partners seek refunds, delay implementation of our products, delay payment, fail to pay us under the terms of our agreements, or terminate use of our products, we may be adversely affected both from the inability to collect amounts due and the cost of enforcing the terms of our contracts (including litigation related thereto). For example, as of the date of the filing of this report on Form 10-Q, four customers that claim to have been impacted by the MOVEit Vulnerability have indicated that they intend to seek indemnification from us related to the MOVEit Vulnerability and it is possible that, in ~~these regions~~connection therewith, they may ~~materially~~delay payment under the terms of their contracts. Other MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud customers have sought refunds or delayed implementation timelines. As the scope of the impact of the MOVEit Vulnerability becomes more clear, additional customers may attempt to seek refunds, delay product implementation, withhold payments, or cease using the MOVEit product line entirely.

In addition, in the ordinary course of business, some of our customers and partners may seek bankruptcy protection or other similar relief and fail to pay amounts due to us, or pay those amounts more slowly, either of which could adversely affect our operating results, financial ~~condition~~position and cash flow.

Our business could be damaged, and we could be subject to liability, in the event of any unauthorized access to our data or our customers’ data, including through privacy and data security breaches, such as or in addition to the MOVEit Vulnerability. The use of certain of our products, including MOVEit Cloud, involves the transmission or storage of third-party data in our environment, some of which may be considered personally identifiable, confidential, or sensitive. In the ordinary course of business, we face security threats from malicious threat actors that could obtain unauthorized access to our systems, infrastructure, products, and networks. We anticipate that these threats will continue to grow in scope and complexity over time.

For example, once we discovered the MOVEit Vulnerability on May 30, 2023, we (i) promptly took down MOVEit Cloud for investigation, and (ii) notified all then-known MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud customers in order to apprise them of the MOVEit Vulnerability and alert them to immediate remedial actions. In parallel, the MOVEit engineering team worked to develop a patch for all supported versions of MOVEit Transfer (and MOVEit Cloud), which was released on May 31, 2023 and allowed for the restoration of MOVEit Cloud that same day. While we believe that our actions have, and will continue to, reduce the likelihood of similar vulnerabilities occurring in the future in our MOVEit product line, malicious threat actors might use techniques to exploit other zero-day vulnerabilities or use other means that we are unable to defend against, in order to compromise and infiltrate our systems, infrastructure, networks, and products, including, but not limited to, MOVEit or other products. In addition, MOVEit Transfer is a secure file-transfer software that is installed by customers on-premise and does not have any on-going telemetry after installation that allows us to track, among other things, whether the customer has applied any security patches or bug fixes to their MOVEit Transfer instance.

While we devote a significant amount of resources to cyber security related matters in the operation of our business, we may fail to detect the existence of a breach and be unable to prevent unauthorized access to user and company content across our systems, infrastructure, products, and networks. The techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently and are often not recognized until launched against a target. They may originate from less regulated or remote areas around the world, or from state-sponsored actors. If our security measures are breached, we may suffer reputational damage, our products may be perceived as insecure, and we may lose existing customers, or fail to attract and retain new customers.

In addition to internal resources, we frequently rely on third parties when deploying our cybersecurity related infrastructure, and in doing so, may be exposed to security risks outside of our direct control. In connection therewith, we rely on outside vendors and contractors to perform certain services necessary for the operation and testing of certain of our products, and they may fail to adequately secure our platform or discover vulnerabilities in our products.

While we have implemented security procedures and controls aimed at addressing these threats and patching vulnerabilities, our security measures could be compromised and our attempts to implement security measures and patch vulnerabilities could prove to be inadequate or could fail. Any such failure could result in significant legal and financial exposure, increased costs to defend litigation, indemnity and other contractual obligations, government fines and penalties, damage to our reputation and our brand, and a loss of confidence in the security of our products and services that could potentially have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. ~~Russia’s invasion~~In addition, our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover all costs related to cybersecurity incidents or the exploitation of ~~Ukraine has also elevated~~vulnerabilities as well as the ~~risk of cyber-attacks on U.S. and global companies, and any~~disruptions resulting from such cyber-attack could similarly impact or disrupt our commercial activities. Although we cannot predict what the impacts may be, our global operations and reliance on interconnected technology increase the risk to our operations. The extent and duration of the conflict in Ukraine, geopolitical tensions, inflationary pressures and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict but could be substantial. Any such disruptions may also magnify the impact of other risks described herein and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended February 28, 2022.events.
