In February 2021, the Company agreed to accelerate its exit from its previous corporate headquarters to October 1, 2021, in exchange for a one-time payment from its landlord of $18 million, which was amortized over the remaining lease term. The exit accelerated depreciation on the related leasehold improvements and reduced the Company’s future lease liabilities by $21.1 million and right of use assets by $20.3 million. On March 31, 2021, the Company leased office space at One Main Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts, to serve as its corporate headquarters. The 4.5 year lease includes a base rent of $2 million per year.

New Waltham ~~Office~~office

On July 6, 2021, the Company entered into an office space lease for 131 thousand square feet in Waltham, Massachusetts. The lease term of 11 years began on August 1, 2021. The annual rent equals the base rent plus a portion of building operating costs and real estate taxes. Rent first ~~becomes~~became payable on August 1, 2022. Base rent for the first year is approximately $6 million and will increase by 3% annually. In addition, the Company will receive an improvement allowance from the landlord of up to $11.8 million. This lease increased the Company’s lease liabilities and lease-related right of use assets by $42.1 million on August 1, 2021.

NOTE 8. DEBT

Convertible senior notes and capped calls

Convertible senior notes

In February 2020, the Company issued Convertible Senior Notes (the "Notes") with an aggregate principal of $600 million, due March 1, 2025, in a private placement. No principal payments are due before maturity. The Notes accrue interest at an annual rate of 0.75%, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1, beginning on September 1, 2020.

Conversion rights

The conversion rate is 7.4045 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, representing an initial conversion price of $135.05 per share of common stock. The Company will settle conversions by paying or delivering cash, shares of its common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at the Company’s election, based on the applicable conversion rate. The conversion rate will be adjusted upon certain events, including spin-offs, tender offers, exchange offers, and certain stockholder distributions.

Beginning on September 1, 2024, noteholders may convert their Notes at any time at their election.

Before September 1, 2024, noteholders may convert their Notes in the following circumstances:

•During any calendar quarter beginning after June 30, 2020 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for each of at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter.

1213

PEGASYSTEMS INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

•During the 5five consecutive business days immediately after any 5five consecutive trading day period (the “Measurement Period”), if the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for each trading day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price per share of common stock on such trading day and the conversion rate on such trading day.

•Upon certain corporate events or distributions or if the Company calls any Notes for redemption, noteholders may convert before the close of business on the business day immediately before the related redemption date (or, if the Company fails to pay the redemption price in full on the redemption date, until the Company pays the redemption price).

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Notes were not eligible for conversion.

Repurchase rights

On or after March 1, 2023 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, the Company may redeem for cash all or part of the Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock exceeded 130% of the conversion price then in effect for 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.

If certain corporate events that constitute a “Fundamental Change” occur, each noteholder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such noteholder’s Notes, or any portion of the principal thereof that is equal to $1,000 or a multiple of $1,000, at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest. A Fundamental Change relates to mergers, changes in control of the Company, liquidation/dissolution of the Company, or the delisting of the Company’s common stock.

Capped call transactions

In February 2020, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain financial institutions. The Capped Call Transactions cover approximately 4.4 million shares (representing the number of shares for which the Notes are initially convertible) of the Company’s common stock. The Capped Call Transactions are expected to reduce common stock dilution and/or offset any potential cash payments the Company must make, other than for principal and interest, upon conversion of the Notes, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap of $196.44. The cap price of the Capped Call Transactions is subject to adjustment upon specified extraordinary events affecting the Company, including mergers and tender offers.

PEGASYSTEMS INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

The Capped Call Transactions are accounted for as derivative instruments and do not qualify for the Company’s own equity scope exception in ASC 815 since, in some cases of early settlement, the settlement value of the Capped Call Transactions, calculated following the governing documents, may not represent a fair value measurement. The Capped Call Transactions are classified as other long-term assets and remeasured to fair value each reporting period, resulting in a non-operating gain or loss.

Credit facility

In November 2019, and as since amended, the Company entered into a five-year $100 million senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association. The Company may use borrowings for general corporate purposes and to finance working capital needs. Subject to specific conditions, the Credit Facility allows the Company to increase the aggregate commitment to $200 million. The commitments expire on November 4, 2024, and any outstanding loans will be payable on such date. The Credit Facility, as amended, contains customary covenants, including, but not limited to, those relating to additional indebtedness, liens, asset divestitures, and affiliate transactions.

The Company is required to comply with financial covenants, including:

•Beginning with the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022 and ending with the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022, Pegasystems Inc. must maintain at least $200 million in cash, investments, and availability under the Revolving Credit Loan.

•Beginning with the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023, a maximum net consolidated leverage ratio of 3.5 to 1.0 (with a step-up for certain acquisitions) and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 3.5 to 1.0.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no outstanding cash borrowings under the Credit Facility.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $27.3 million in outstanding letters of credit which reduce the available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The Company records its cash equivalents, marketable securities, Capped Call Transactions, and venture investments at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

As a basis for classifying the fair value measurements, a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which classifies the fair value measurements based on the inputs used in measuring fair value, was established as follows:

•Level 1 - observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•Level 2 - significant other inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

•Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs on which there is little or no market data, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions. This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and minimize unobservable inputs when determining fair value.

The fair value of the Capped Call Transactions at the end of each reporting period is determined using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The valuation model uses various market-based inputs, including stock price, remaining contractual term, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividend yield. The Company applies judgment when determining expected volatility. The Company considers both historical and implied volatility levels of the underlying equity security. The Company’s venture investments are recorded at fair value based on multiple valuation methods, including observable public companies and transaction prices and unobservable inputs, including the volatility, rights, and obligations of the securities the Company holds.

The change in the effective income tax rate (benefit rate) in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was primarily due to the recognition of a $191.9 million valuation allowance recognized at June 30, 2022, on the Company’s U.S. and U.K deferred tax assets. As a result of recording the valuation allowance, the Company is no longer recording any income tax benefit on its U.S and U.K losses. The $11.7 million provision for (benefit from) income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2022 primarily represents non-U.K. foreign income taxes.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. Future realization of deferred tax assets ultimately depends on sufficient taxable income within the available carryback or carryforward periods. The Company’s deferred tax valuation allowance requires significant judgment and uncertainties, including assumptions about future taxable income based on historical and projected information. On a quarterly basis, the Company ~~reassess~~reassesses the need for a valuation allowance on its existing net deferred tax assets by tax-paying jurisdiction, weighing positive and negative evidence to assess its recoverability. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available and objectively verifiable negative and positive evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, committed contractual backlog (“Backlog”), projected future taxable income inclusive of the impact of enacted legislation, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The weight given to the potential effect of negative and positive evidence is commensurate with the extent to which it can be objectively verified.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s Backlog balance was not sufficient to recover our net deferred tax assets. The Backlog balance and other unsettled circumstances, impacting the Company’s operations, reduced the Backlog’s weight as objectively verifiable positive evidence to generate sufficient taxable income to recover its net deferred tax assets. These unsettled circumstances include growing and extended geopolitical turmoil, increasing inflation, and an uncertain global economic outlook.

As of June 30, 2022, the combination of the above factors caused the Company to conclude there is ~~no longer~~not sufficient objectively verifiable positive evidence to support that it is more likely than not the Company will generate sufficient future taxable income to recover the Company’s U.S. and U.K. net deferred tax assets. Accordingly, the Company recorded a valuation allowance of $191.9 million in income tax expense during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

The Company intends to continue maintaining a full valuation allowance on our U.S and U.K deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the realization of these deferred tax assets.

(3) The Company’s Capped Call Transactions represent the equivalent of approximately 4.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock (representing the number of shares for which the Notes are initially convertible). The Capped Call Transactions are expected to reduce common stock dilution and/or offset any potential cash payments the Company must make, other than for principal and interest, upon conversion of the Notes, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap of $196.44. The Capped Call Transactions are excluded from weighted-average common shares outstanding, assuming dilution, in all periods as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

(4) Outstanding stock options and RSUs that were anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method in the period were excluded from the computation of diluted (loss) ~~earnings~~ per share. These awards may be dilutive in the future.

Legal ~~Proceedings~~proceedings

In addition to the matters below, the Company is, or may become, involved in a variety of claims, demands, suits, investigations, and proceedings that arise from time to time relating to matters incidental to the ordinary course of the Company’s business, including actions concerning contracts, intellectual property, employment, benefits, and securities matters. Regardless of the outcome, legal disputes can have a material effect on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.

In addition, as the Company is a party to ongoing litigation, it is at least reasonably possible that our estimates will change in the near term and the effect may be material.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has no accrued losses for litigation.

Pegasystems Inc. v. Appian Corp. & Business Process Management Inc.

On July 3, 2019, the Company filed suit in Massachusetts federal court against Appian Corp. (“Appian”) and Business Process Management, Inc. (“BPM”) relating to a BPM “Market Report” that Appian had used to promote itself against the Company. Pegasystems Inc. v. Appian Corp. & Business Process Management Inc., No. 1:19-cv-11461 (D. Mass). On April 15, 2022, each of the parties filed motions for summary judgment with the ~~court. These motions were heard on July 15,~~court.

On October 24, 2022, the court entered an order setting a trial date of ~~this filing~~.January 3, 2023. The Company continues to believe the counterclaims brought by Appian against the Company are without merit, and the Company intends to vigorously pursue its claims against Appian and defend against the counterclaims brought against the Company in this matter. The Company is unable to reasonably estimate possible damages or a range of possible damages in this matter given the Company’s belief that the damages claimed by Appian fail to satisfy the required legal standard, the status of the proceeding, and due to the uncertainty as to how a jury may rule if this ultimately proceeds to trial.

Appian Corp. v. Pegasystems Inc. & Youyong Zou

As previously reported, the Company is a defendant in litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia (the “Court”) titled Appian Corp. v. Pegasystems Inc. & Youyong Zou, No. 2020-07216 (Fairfax Cty. Ct.). On May 9, 2022, the jury rendered its verdict finding that the Company had misappropriated one or more of Appian’s trade secrets, that the Company had violated the Virginia Computer Crimes Act, and that the trade secret misappropriation was willful and malicious. The jury awarded damages in the amount of $2,036,860,045 for trade secret misappropriation and $1.00 for the violation of the Virginia Computer Crimes Act. ~~Since~~On September 15, 2022, the circuit court of Fairfax County entered judgment in the amount of $2,060,479,287, consisting of the damages previously awarded by the jury ~~rendering its~~plus attorneys’ fees and costs, and stating that the judgment is subject to post-judgment interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum, from the date of the jury verdict (May 9, 2022) as to the ~~Company~~amount of the jury verdict and ~~Appian have filed post-trial motions with~~from September 15, 2022 as to the ~~court.~~amount of the award of attorneys’ fees and costs.

City of Fort Lauderdale Police and Firefighters’ Retirement System, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell

On May 19, 2022, a lawsuit was filed against the Company, the Company’s chief executive officer and the Company’s chief operating and financial officer in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia Alexandria Division, captioned City of Fort Lauderdale Police and Firefighters’ Retirement System, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case 1:22-cv-00578-LMB-IDD). The complaint generally alleges, among other things, that the defendants violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder and that the individual defendants violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, in each case by allegedly making materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as allegedly failing to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, which caused the Company’s securities to trade at artificially inflated prices. The complaint seeks unspecified damages on behalf of a class of purchasers of the Company’s securities between May 29, 2020 and May 9, 2022. The litigation has since been transferred to the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts (Case 1:22-cv-11220-WGY), and lead plaintiff class representatives—Central Pennsylvania Teamsters Pension Fund - Defined Benefit Plan, Central Pennsylvania Teamsters Pension Fund - Retirement Income Plan 1987, and Construction Industry Laborers Pension Fund—have been appointed. On October 18, 2022, a consolidated amended complaint was filed that does not add any new parties or legal claims, is based upon the same general factual allegations as the original complaint, and now seeks unspecified damages on behalf of a class of purchasers of the Company’s securities between June 16, 2020 and May 9, 2022. The Company believes the claims brought against the defendants are without merit, and intends to vigorously defend against these claims. The Company is unable to reasonably estimate possible damages or a range of possible damages in this matter given the stage of the lawsuit, the Company’s belief that the claims are without merit, and there being no specified quantum of damages sought in the complaint.

Our direct financial exposure to Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus is not material.

In 2021, before Russia's invasion of Ukraine, we made a business decision to stop pursuing new clients in Russia and closed our local office. For the year ended December 31, 2021, total revenue from clients located in Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus was less than $4.0 million. However, the ultimate impact of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on our business will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the conflict and the impact on our people, partners, clients, and vendors in neighboring countries and globally, all of which are uncertain and unpredictable.

Performance metrics

We use performance metrics to analyze and assess our overall performance, make operating decisions, and forecast and plan for future periods, including:

Annual contract value (“ACV”)

ACV represents the annualized value of our active contracts as of the measurement date. The contract's total value is divided by its duration in years to calculate ACV for subscription license and Pega Cloud contracts. Maintenance revenue for the quarter then ended is multiplied by four to calculate ACV for maintenance. ACV is a performance measure that we believe provides useful information to our management and investors, particularly during our subscription transition.

Note: Constant currency ~~Backlog is~~measures are calculated by applying foreign exchange rates for the earliest period shown to all periods. The above constant currency measures reflect foreign exchange rates applicable as of Q2Q3 2021. We believe that non-GAAP financial measures help investors understand our core operating results and prospects, consistent with how management measures and forecasts our performance without the effect of often one-time charges and other items outside our normal operations. The supplementary non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be superior to or a substitute for financial measures prepared under U.S. GAAP.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared following accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions, and expectations of what could occur in the future given the available information.

For more information about our critical accounting policies, we encourage you to read the discussion in the following locations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021:

•“Critical Accounting Estimates and Significant Judgments” in Item 7; and

•“Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies” in Item 8.

We recorded a valuation allowance of $191.9 million in income tax expense during the three months ended June 30, 2022. See "Note 12. Income Taxes" in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information. There have been no other significant changes to our critical accounting policies as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenue

Subscription transition

We are transitioning our business to sell software primarily through subscription arrangements.

This transition has impacted the optics of revenue growth as revenue ~~is recognized differently for~~from subscription ~~services,~~service arrangements, which includes Pega Cloud and maintenance, ~~than license sales. Revenue from subscription service arrangements~~ is typically recognized over the contract term, while revenue from license sales is recognized when the license rights become effective, typically upfront.

The revenue changes in the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 generally reflect the impact of our subscription transition. Other factors impacting our revenue include:

•The United States Dollar has strengthened against foreign currencies in the markets we operate, which reduced total revenue growth in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 by approximately 5 percent.

•The decreases in subscription license revenue in the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 were primarily due to several large software license contracts recognized in revenue in the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021.

•The ~~increases~~decreases in ~~consulting~~maintenance revenue in the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 were primarily due to ~~increases~~changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the continuing shift to Pega Cloud.

•The increase in consulting revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily due to an increase in consultant billable hours in North America.

We believe that our current cash, cash flow from operations, borrowing capacity, and ability to engage in capital market transactions will be sufficient to fund our operations, stock repurchases, and quarterly cash dividends for at least the next 12 months and to meet our known long-term cash requirements. Whether these resources are adequate to meet our liquidity needs beyond that period will depend on our future growth, operating results, and the investments needed to support our operations. We may utilize available funds or seek additional external financing if we require additional capital resources.

If it becomes necessary to repatriate foreign funds, we may have to pay U.S. and foreign taxes upon repatriation. However, due to the complexity of income tax laws and regulations, it is impracticable to estimate the amount of taxes we would have to pay.

Operating activities

We are transitioning our business to sell software primarily through subscription arrangements. This transition has impacted and is expected to continue impacting our billings and cash collections, as ~~the timing of billings and cash collections generally differs between our~~ subscription ~~and perpetual license arrangements. Subscription~~ licenses and services are generally billed and collected over the contract term, while perpetual license arrangements ~~usually~~ are generally billed and collected upfront when the license rights become effective.

The change in cash (used in) ~~provided by~~ operating activities in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was primarily due to our subscription transition and increased costs as we made investments in research and development ~~and selling and marketing activities~~ to support ~~future growth.~~development of our offerings partially offset by strong client collections. In addition, in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, we incurred ~~$28.0~~$32.4 million and $8.4 million in legal fees and related expenses arising from proceedings that originated outside of the ordinary course of business. We expect to continue to incur additional expenses for these proceedings. See "Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies" in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

Investing activities

The change in cash ~~(used in)~~ provided by investing activities in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 was primarily driven by our investments in financial instruments and an increase in office space related capital ~~expenditures, and an acquisition in 2021.~~expenditures.

Financing activities

Debt financing

In February 2020, we issued $600 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes, which mature on March 1, 2025.

In November 2019, and as since amended, we entered into a five-year $100 million senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, we had no outstanding cash borrowings under the Credit ~~Facility.~~Facility but had $27.3 million in outstanding letters of credit which reduce the available borrowing capacity. See "Note 8. Debt" in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in financial market prices and rates.

Foreign currency exposure

Translation risk

Our international operations’ operating expenses are primarily denominated in foreign currencies. However, our international sales are also primarily denominated in foreign currencies, which partially offsets our foreign currency exposure.

A hypothetical 10% strengthening in the U.S. dollar against other currencies would have resulted in:


		Six Months Ended June 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,
		2022		2021			2022		2021
(Decrease) increase in revenue	(Decrease) increase in revenue	(3)	%	(4)	%	(Decrease) increase in revenue	(4)	%	(4)	%
Increase (decrease) in net income	Increase (decrease) in net income	3	%	(1)	%	Increase (decrease) in net income	2	%	(9)	%

Remeasurement risk

We incur transaction gains and losses from the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the entities in which they are recorded.

We are primarily exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with the Australian dollar, Euro, and U.S. dollar-denominated cash, cash equivalents, receivables, and intercompany balances held by our U.K. subsidiary, a British pound functional entity.

2627

A hypothetical 10% strengthening in the British pound exchange rate in comparison to the Australian dollar, Euro, and U.S. dollar would have resulted in the following impact:


		Six Months Ended June 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	(in thousands)	2022		2021		(in thousands)	2022		2021
Foreign currency gain (loss)	Foreign currency gain (loss)	$	(7,185)	$	(5,676)	Foreign currency gain (loss)	$	(6,335)	$	(4,480)

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)) as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our management necessarily applied its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 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

The information set forth in ~~Note~~“Note 14. Commitments and ~~Contingencies,~~Contingencies”, in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report is incorporated herein by reference and updates the description of our pending legal proceedings, as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 16, 2022 and in our Quarterly ~~Report~~Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2022 and July 27, 2022.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The risk factors set forth below update the risk factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 16, 2022 and in our Quarterly ~~Report~~Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on April 28, 2022 and July 27, 2022.

In addition to the risk factors set forth below, we encourage you to carefully consider the risk factors identified in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These risk factors could materially affect our business, financial condition, and future results, and may cause our actual business and financial results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or elsewhere by management.

We face risks related to intellectual property claims or appropriation of our intellectual property rights.

We rely primarily on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secrets laws, as well as intellectual property and confidentiality agreements to protect our proprietary rights. We also try to control access to and distribution of our technologies and other proprietary information. We have obtained patents in strategically important global markets relating to the architecture of our systems. We cannot be certain that such patents will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or that rights granted thereunder, or the claims contained therein will provide us with competitive advantages. Moreover, despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our software or to obtain the use of information that we regard as proprietary. Although we generally enter into intellectual property and confidentiality agreements with our employees and strategic partners, despite our efforts our former employees may seek employment with our business partners, clients, or competitors, and there can be no assurance that the confidential nature of our proprietary information will be maintained. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights as effectively as they do in the U.S. There can be no assurance that our means of protecting our proprietary rights will be adequate or that our competitors will not independently develop similar technology.

Other companies or individuals have obtained proprietary rights covering a variety of designs, processes, and systems. Third parties have claimed and may in the future claim that we have infringed or otherwise violated their intellectual property. We are currently party to litigation with Appian Corp. - see Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” and Note 14 in the “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report; Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” and Note 14 in the “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part I, Item 1 of our Quarterly Report filed with the SEC on July 27, 2022; Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” and Note 14 in the “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part I, Item 1 of our Quarterly Report filed with the SEC on April 28, ~~2022,~~2022; and Part I, Item 3 “Legal Proceedings” and Note 19 in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report filed with the SEC on February 16, 2022.

Although we attempt to limit the amount and type of our contractual liability for infringement or other violation of the proprietary rights of third parties and assert ownership of work product and intellectual property rights as appropriate, there are often exceptions, and limitations may not be applicable and enforceable in all cases. Even if limitations are found to be applicable and enforceable, our liability to our clients for these types of claims could be material given the size of certain of our transactions. We expect that software product developers will increasingly be subject to infringement claims as the number of products and competitors in our industry segment grows and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlaps. Any such claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment and delivery delays, require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, or preclude us from making and selling the infringing software, if such proprietary rights are found to be valid. Royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. These claims could also subject us to significant liability for damages, potentially including treble damages if we are found to have willfully infringed patents or copyrights. Even if a license were available, we could be required to pay significant royalties, which would increase our operating expenses. As a result, we may be required to develop alternative non-infringing technology, which could require substantial effort and cost. If we cannot license or develop technology for any infringing aspect of our business, we would be forced to limit or stop sales of our software and may be unable to compete effectively, which could have a material effect upon our business, operating results, and financial condition.

2829

Intellectual property rights claims by third parties are extremely costly to defend, could require us to pay significant damages, and could limit our ability to use certain technologies.

Companies in the software and technology industries, including some of our current and potential competitors, own large numbers of patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets and frequently enter into litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. In addition, many of these companies can dedicate greater resources to enforce their intellectual property rights and to defend claims that may be brought against them. The litigation may involve patent holding companies or other adverse patent owners that have no relevant product revenues and against which our patents may, therefore, provide little or no deterrence. Third parties have claimed and may claim in the future that we have misappropriated, misused, or infringed other parties' intellectual property rights, and, to the extent we gain greater market visibility, we face a higher risk of being the subject of intellectual property claims.

Any litigation regarding intellectual property could be costly and time-consuming and could divert the attention of our management and key personnel from our business operations. Significant judgments are required for the determination of probability and the range of the outcomes in any legal dispute, and the estimates are based only on the information available to us at the time. Due to the inherent uncertainties involved in claims, legal proceedings, and in estimating the losses that may arise, actual outcomes may differ from our estimates. Contingencies deemed not probable or for which losses were not estimable in one period may become probable, or losses may become estimable in later periods which may have a material impact on our results of operations and financial position. Intellectual property disputes could subject us to significant liabilities, require us to enter into royalty and licensing arrangements on unfavorable terms, prevent us from manufacturing or licensing certain of our products, cause severe disruptions to our operations or the markets in which we compete or require us to satisfy indemnification commitments to our customers. Any of these could seriously harm our business.

We are currently party to litigation with Appian Corp. - see Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” and Note 14 in the “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report; Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” and Note 14 in the “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part I, Item 1 of our Quarterly Report filed with the SEC on July 27, 2022; Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” and Note 14 in the “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part I, Item 1 of our Quarterly Report filed with the SEC on April 28, ~~2022,~~2022; and Part I, Item 3 “Legal Proceedings” and Note 19 in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report filed with the SEC on February 16, 2022. On September 15, 2022, the circuit court of Fairfax County entered judgment in the amount of $2,060,479,287, consisting of the jury verdict and the Court’s award of attorneys’ fees and costs to Appian, and stating that Appian will be entitled to post-judgment interest at the rate of 6% per annum from the date of the jury verdict (May 9, 2022) as to the amount of the jury verdict and from September 15, 2022 as to the portion of the judgment that is attributable to the Court’s award of attorneys’ fees and costs. On September 15, 2022, the Company filed a notice of appeal from the judgment. On September 29, 2022, the circuit court of Fairfax County approved of the $25,000,000 letter of credit obtained by the Company to secure the judgment and entered an order suspending the judgment during the pendency of the Company’s appeal. This appeals process could potentially take years to complete. Notwithstanding the ~~jury~~circuit court of Fairfax County having ~~rendered a verdict in the litigation pending in Virginia,~~entered this judgment, we are unable to reasonably estimate possible damages in that matter because, among other things, of the uncertainty as to the outcome of ~~post-trial motions,~~ appellate proceedings, and/or any potential new trial resulting from the ~~post-trial motions and~~ appellate proceedings. If we are ultimately unsuccessful in prevailing in the matter in ~~the~~its entirety or ~~having the ultimate~~in obtaining a substantially smaller jury verdict, ~~be substantially reduced,~~ we may be required to incur debt or otherwise engage in capital market transactions to finance the final judgment, together with interest and any awards of attorneys’ fees and costs. In addition, if we do not ~~timely~~ satisfy the judgment within 60 days following the expiration of the right to appeal, there may be an acceleration of liabilities under our Convertible Senior Notes and our ~~credit facility.~~Credit Facility. While we continue to believe that we have the financial strength to pay these amounts if it ever becomes necessary, it is possible that we may not be able to engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.
