The consolidated financial statements of Commvault as of SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and 20202021 are unaudited, and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2021.2022. The results reported in these financial statements should not necessarily be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The amountamounts of assets and liabilities reported in our balance sheets and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each of our periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for revenue recognition, income taxes and related reserves, deferred commissions, purchased intangible assets and goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Standards
StandardDescriptionEffective DateEffect on the Consolidated Financial Statements (or Other Significant Matters)
ASU No. 2019-12 (Topic 740), Income TaxesIn December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new standard to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates, and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill.We adopted this standard as of April 1, 2021.The standard did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Deferred Commissions Cost
Sales commissions, bonuses, and related payroll taxes earned by our employees are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Our typical contracts include performance obligations related to software licenses, software updates, customer support and other services, including software-as-a-service offerings. In these contracts, incremental costs of obtaining a contract are allocated to the performance obligations based on the relative estimated standalone selling prices and then recognized on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer of the goods or services to which the asset relates. We do not pay commissions on annual renewals of contracts for software updates and customer support for perpetual licenses. The costs allocated to software and products are expensed at the time of sale, when revenue for the functional software license or appliance is typically recognized. The costs allocated to software updates and customer support for perpetual licenses are amortized ratably over a period of approximately five years, the expected period of benefit of the asset capitalized. We currently estimate a period of five years is appropriate based on consideration of historical average customer life and the estimated useful life of the underlying software or appliance sold as part of the transaction.
Beginning in fiscal 2022, we modified the terms of our commission plans, and as a result, the The commission paid on the renewal of a term-based or subscription software license wasis not commensurate with the commission paid on the initial purchase. As a result, the cost of commissions allocated to software updates and customer support on the initial transactionterm-based software license transactions are now amortized over a period of approximately five years, consistent with the accounting for these costs associated with perpetual licenses. The costs of commissions allocated to software updates and support for the renewal of term-based software licenses is limited to the contractual period of the arrangement, as we intend to pay a commensurate renewal commission upon the next renewal of the subscription license and related updates and support. This change in commission plans also resulted in a change in the estimate of the amortization period of our existing Deferred commissions cost associated with term licenses. This change in amortization period resulted in an approximately $950 and $2,050 reduction in Sales and marketing expense, than if the change in estimate did not occur, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.
The costs related to professional services are amortized over the period the related professional services are provided and revenue is recognized. Amortization expense related to these costs is included in Salessales and marketing expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statementsconsolidated statements of Operations.

operations.

3.    Revenue
We derive revenues from 2 primary sources: software and products, and services. Software and products revenue includes our software and integrated appliances that combine our software with hardware. Services include customer support (software updates and technical support), consulting, assessment and design services, installation services, customer education and Commvault software-as-a-service, which is branded as Metallic.
We sell both perpetual and term-based licenses of our software. We refer to our term-based software licenses as subscription arrangements. We do not customize our software, and installation services are not required. The software is delivered before related services are provided and is functional without professional services, updates and technical support. We have concluded that our software licenses (both perpetual and subscription) are functional intellectual property that is distinct as the user can benefit from the software on its own. Software revenue for both perpetual and subscription licenses is typically recognized when the software is delivered and/or made available for download as this is the point the user of the software can direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the functional intellectual property. We do not recognize software revenue related to the renewal of subscription software licenses earlier than the beginning of the new subscription period.
We also sell appliances that integrate our software with hardware and address a wide-range of business needs and use cases, ranging from support for remote or branch offices with limited IT staff up to large corporate data centers. Revenue related to appliances is recognized when control of the appliances passes to the customer; typically upon delivery. In the second half of fiscal 2021 we began transitioning to a software only model in which we typically sell software to a third party, which assembles an integrated appliance that is sold to end user customers. As a result, we expect the revenue and costs associated with hardware will declinehave declined from recent fiscal years.
Services revenue includes revenue from customer support and other professional services. Customer support includes software updates on a when-and-if-available basis, telephone support, integrated web-based support and bug fixes or patches. We sell our customer support contracts as a percentage of net software purchases the support is related to. Customer support revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the customer support agreement, which is typically one year on our perpetual licenses. The term of our subscription arrangements is typically three years but can range between one and five years.

Our other professional services include consulting, assessment and design services, installation services and customer education. Customer education services include courses taught by our instructors or third-party contractors. Revenue related to other professional services and customer education services is typically recognized as the services are performed.

In fiscal 2020 Commvault launched Metallic,software-as-a-service, which is a Commvault software-as-a-service offering.branded as Metallic, allows customers to use hosted software over the contract period without taking possession of the software. Revenue fromrelated to Metallic is generally recognized ratably over the contract term as services revenue.

Most of our contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, we account for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices of software isare typically estimated using the residual approach. Standalone selling prices of services are typically estimated based on observable transactions when these services are sold on a standalone basis.

Disaggregation of Revenue

We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into the nature of the products and services and geographical regions. The geographic regions that are tracked areBeginning in fiscal 2023, we have combined the Americas (United States, Canada, Latin America),management of our EMEA and APJ field organizations into our International region (Europe, Middle East, Africa) and APJ (Australia, New Zealand,Africa, Australia, Japan, Southeast Asia, China). We operate in 1 segment.Our Americas region includes the United States, Canada, and Latin America.

Information about Contract Balances

Amounts collected in advance of services being provided are accounted for as Deferreddeferred revenue. Nearly all of our Deferreddeferred revenue balance is related to services revenue, primarily customer support contracts and software-as-a-service contracts.

In some arrangements we allow customers to pay for term-based software licenses and products over the term of the software license. Amounts recognized as revenue in excess of amounts billed are recorded as Unbilledunbilled receivables. Unbilled receivables, which are anticipated to be invoiced in the next twelve months, are included in Accountsaccounts receivable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.consolidated balance sheets. Long-term unbilled receivables are included in Otherother assets.

The net decrease in Accountsaccounts receivable (inclusive of Unbilledunbilled receivables) is a result of a decrease in software and products revenue relative to the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year. DeferredThe decrease in deferred revenue remained relatively consistentis primarily as the result of a strengthening of the U.S. dollar and a sequential decrease in deferred revenue associated with customer support contracts partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue associated with Metallic contracts that are billed upfront and recognized ratably over the contract period partially offset by a seasonal decline in deferred revenue associated with customer support contracts as the renewal of our customer support contracts is concentrated in our fiscal third and fourth quarters.period.

The amount of revenue recognized in the period that was included in the March 31, 20212022 balance of deferred revenue was $70,117 and $160,926$92,149 for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021.2022.

Remaining Performance Obligations

In addition to the amounts included in deferred revenue as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021, $37,7602022, $76,825 of revenue may be recognized from remaining performance obligations, of which approximately $4,300$9,900 was related to software and products. We expect the majority of this software and products revenue to be recognized during fiscal 2022.2023. Most of this software and products revenue is associated with renewals of term licenses which have not yet expired. The vast majority of the services revenue is related to other professional services which may be recognized over the next twelve months but is contingent upon a number of factors, including customers’ needs and schedules.Metallic.

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, vesting of restricted stock units and shares to be purchased under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"). The dilutive effect of such potential common shares is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method.

Performance Based Awards
In the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we granted 117126 performance restricted stock units ("PSUs") to certain executives. Vesting of these awards is contingent upon i) us meeting certain revenue and non-GAAP performance goals (performance-based) in fiscal 20222023 and ii) our customary service periods. The awards vest over three years. TheseThe vesting quantity of these awards generally have potential to vest at 200%may vary based on actual fiscal 20222023 performance. The related stock-based compensation expense is determined based on the value of the underlying shares on the date of grant and is recognized over the vesting term using the accelerated method. During the interim financial periods, management estimates the probable number of PSUs that would vest until the ultimate achievement of the performance goals is known. The awards are included in the restricted stock unit table.

Awards with a Market Condition
In the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we granted 105126 market performance stock units to certain executives. The vesting of these awards is contingent upon us meeting certain total shareholder return ("TSR") levels as compared to the Russell 3000 market index over the next three years. The awards vest in 3 annual tranches and have a maximum potential to vest at 200% (210(252 shares) based on TSR performance. The related stock-based compensation expense is determined based on the estimated fair value of the underlying shares on the date of grant and is recognized using the accelerated method over the vesting term. The estimated fair value was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The fair value of the awards granted during the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 was $87.74$76.48 per unit. The awards are included in the restricted stock unit table.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”) is a shareholder approved plan under which substantially all employees may purchase our common stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market values of the stock as of the beginning or the end of six-month offering periods. An employee’s payroll deductions under the Purchase Plan are limited to 10% of the employee’s salary and employees may not purchase more than $25 of stock during any calendar year. Employees purchased 85 shares in exchange for $5,160 of proceeds in the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 129 shares in exchange for $4,652 of proceeds in the six months ended September 30, 2020. The Purchase Plan is considered compensatory and the fair value of the discount and look back provision are estimated using the Black-Scholes formula and recognized over the six-month withholding period prior to purchase.  The total expense associated with the Purchase Plan for six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $1,567 and $1,511, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, there was approximately $1,291 of unrecognized cost related to the current purchase period of our Purchase Plan.

Income tax expense was $2,555$3,705 in the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 compared to expense of $4,211$1,731 in the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020. Current quarter2021. The increase in current income tax expense relative to the prior year relates primarily to current foreign taxes. Infederal and state taxes driven by the effects of capitalization and amortization of research and development expenses starting in our fiscal 2018, we determinedyear 2023 as required by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. We believe that it wasis more likely than not that we will not realize the benefits of our gross deferred tax assets and therefore recordedcontinue to record a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of these gross deferred tax assets, net of the impact of the reversal of taxable temporary differences, to zero. Our position remains unchanged with respect to the realizability of our deferred tax assetszero as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021.2022.

9.    Restructuring
Our restructuring plan, initiated in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, isplans are aimed to increase efficiency in our sales, marketing and distribution functions, as well as reduce costs across all functional areas. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, we initiated a restructuring plan to combine the management of our EMEA and APJ field organizations.

On December 13, 2021, we entered into a five-year $100,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with J.P. Morgan. The Credit Facility is available for share repurchases, general corporate purposes, and letters of credit. The Credit Facility contains financial maintenance covenants including a leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains certain customary events of default which would permit the lender to, among other things, declare all loans then outstanding to be immediately due and payable if such default is not cured within applicable grace periods. The Credit Facility also limits our ability to incur certain additional indebtedness, create or permit liens on assets, make acquisitions, make investments, loans or advances, sell or transfer assets, pay dividends or distributions, and engage in certain transactions with foreign affiliates. Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at an annual rate equal to Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 1.25% subject to increases based on our actual leverage. The unused balance on the Credit Facility is also subject to a 0.25% annual interest charge subject to increases based on our actual leverage. As of June 30, 2022, there were no borrowings under the Credit Facility and we were in compliance with all covenants.
We have deferred the expense related to debt issuance costs, which are classified as other assets, and will amortize the costs into interest expense over the term of the Credit Facility. Unamortized amounts at June 30, 2022 were $514. The amortization of debt issuance costs and interest expense incurred for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020 relate to 3 and 5 offices, respectively. There were no lease impairment charges for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021.2022 was $92.

Sources of Revenues
We derive a significant portion of our total revenues from sales of licenses of our software applications and related appliance products. We do not customize our software or products for a specific end-user customer. We sell our software applications and products to end-user customers both directly through our sales force and indirectly through our global network of value-added reseller partners, systems integrators, corporate resellers and original equipment manufacturers. Our software and products revenue was 44%47% and 43%45% of our total revenues for the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
We continue to focus on subscription and 2020,other recurring revenue arrangements and began generating revenue from the renewals of subscription licenses sold in prior years. Any of our licensing models (capacity, instance based, etc.) can be sold via a subscription arrangement. In these arrangements the customer has the right to use the software over a designated period of time. The capacity of the license is fixed and the customer has made an unconditional commitment to pay. Software revenue in these arrangements is generally recognized when the software is delivered. During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, approximately 81% and 60% of software license revenue was sold under a subscription model, respectively. We also sell to some customers, primarily managed service providers, via utility, or pay-as-you-go models. In these arrangements actual usage is regularly measured and billed. Revenue in these utility arrangements is recognized as the software is used.
Our total software and products revenue in any particular period is, to a certain extent, dependent upon our ability to generate revenues from large customer software and products deals.deals, which we refer to as larger deal transactions. Larger dealsdeal transactions (transactions greater than $0.1 million)million of software and products revenue) represented 68%75% and 69% of our total software and products revenue in the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively.
Software and products revenue generated through indirect distribution channels accounted for approximately 90% of total software and products revenue in both the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and 2020.2021. Software and products revenue generated through direct distribution channels accounted for approximately 10% of total software and products revenue in both the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and 2020.2021. Deals initiated by our direct sales force are sometimes transacted through indirect channels based on end-user customer requirements, which are not always in our control and can cause this overall percentage split to vary from period-to-period. As such, there may be fluctuations in the dollars and percentage of software and products revenue generated through our direct distribution channels from time-to-time. We believe that the growth of our software and products revenue, derived from both our indirect channel partners and direct sales force, are key attributes to our long-term growth strategy. We planintend to continue to invest in both our channel relationships and direct sales force in the future, but we continue to expect more revenue to be generated through indirect distribution channels over the long term. The
14


failure of our indirect distribution channels or our direct sales force to effectively sell our software applications could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.
We have a non-exclusive distribution agreement covering our North American commercial markets and our U.S. Federal Government market with Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, Inc. ("Arrow"), a subsidiary of Arrow Electronics, Inc. Pursuant to this distribution agreement, Arrow's primary role is to enable a more efficient and effective distribution channel for our products and services by managing our reseller partners and leveraging their own industry experience. We generated 35%36% and 36%37% of our total revenues through Arrow for the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively. If Arrow were to discontinue or reduce the sales of our products or if
17


our agreement with Arrow were terminated, and if we were unable to take back the management of our reseller channel or find another North American distributor to replace Arrow, then such events would havethere could be a material adverse effect on our future business.
Our services revenue was 56%53% and 55% of our total revenues for the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022 and 2021, and 57% of our total revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2020.respectively. Our services revenue is made up of fees from the delivery of customer support and other professional services, which are typically sold in connection with the sale of our software applications. Customer support agreements provide technical support and unspecified software updates on a when-and-if-available basis for an annual fee based on licenses purchased and the level of service subscribed. Metallic, our software-as-a-service solution, allows customers to use hosted software over the contract period without taking possession of the software. Revenue related to Metallic is also included in services revenue and is generally recognized ratably over the contract term. Other professional services include consulting, assessment and design services, implementation and post-deployment services and training, all of which to date have predominantly been sold in connection with the sale of software applications. Our software-as-a-service solution, branded Metallic, is also included in services revenue. Revenue from Metallic is recognized ratably over the contract period.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates’ Impact on Results of Operations
Sales outside the United States were 47%44% of our total revenue for the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 and 45% of our total revenue for the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020.2021. The income statements of our non-U.S. operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates for each applicable month in a period. To the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions generally results in increased revenue, operating expenses and income from operations for our non-U.S. operations. Similarly, our revenue, operating expenses and net income will generally decrease for our non-U.S. operations if the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies.
Using the average foreign currency exchange rates from the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020,2021, our software and products revenue would have been lowerhigher by $0.8$3.9 million, our services revenue would have been lowerhigher by $1.2$4.9 million, our cost of sales would have been lowerhigher by $0.2$1.0 million and our operating expenses would have been lowerhigher by $1.2$4.3 million from non-U.S. operations for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021. Using the average foreign currency exchange rates from the six months ended September 30, 2020, our software and products revenue would have been lower by $3.9 million, our services revenue would have been lower by $5.7 million, our cost of sales would have been lower by $1.2 million and our operating expenses would have been lower by $4.7 million from non-U.S. operations for the six months ended September 30, 2021.2022.
In addition, we are exposed to risks of foreign currency fluctuation primarily from cash balances, accounts receivables and intercompany accounts denominated in foreign currencies and are subject to the resulting transaction gains and losses, which are recorded as a component of Generalgeneral and administrative expenses. We recognized net foreign currency transaction gains of approximately $0.5 million and losses of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021, respectively. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $1.2 million2022 and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2020,2021, respectively.

These restructuring charges relate primarily to severance and related costs associated with headcount reductions. These charges include $0.4$1.3 million and $0.7$0.1 million in the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, of stock-based compensation related to modifications of existing awards granted to certain employees included in the restructuring.restructuring for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We cannot guarantee the restructuring program will achieve its intended result. Risks associated with this restructuring program also include additional unexpected costs, adverse effects on employee morale and the failure to meet operational and growth targets due to the loss of key employees, any of which may impair our ability to achieve anticipated results of operations or otherwise harm our business.

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $2.6$3.7 million in the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20212022 compared to expense of $4.2$1.7 million in the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020.2021. The increase in current income tax expense forrelative to the six months ended September 30, 2021prior year relates primarily to current foreign taxes.

federal and state taxes driven by the effects of capitalization and amortization of research and development expenses starting in our fiscal year 2023 as required by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. We believe that it is more likely than not that we will not realize the benefits of our gross deferred tax assets and therefore continue to record a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of these gross deferred tax assets, net of the impact of the reversal of taxable temporary differences, to zero as of June 30, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, our cash balance was $295.8$258.7 million. In recent fiscal years, our principal source of liquidity has been cash provided by operations.
As of September 30, 2021, the The amount of cash and cash equivalents held outside of the United States by our foreign legal entities was approximately $172.7$167.8 million. These balances are dispersed across many international locations around the world. We believe that such dispersion meets the current and anticipated future liquidity needs of our foreign legal entities. In the event we neededneed to repatriate funds from outside of the United States, such repatriation would likely be subject to restrictions by local laws and/or tax consequences including foreign withholding taxes.
DuringOn December 13, 2021, we entered into a five-year $100 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with J.P. Morgan. The Credit Facility is available for share repurchases, general corporate purposes, and letters of credit. The Credit Facility contains financial maintenance covenants including a leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains certain customary events of default which would permit the sixlender to, among other things, declare all loans then outstanding to be immediately due and payable if such default is not cured within applicable grace periods. The Credit Facility also limits our ability to incur certain additional indebtedness, create or permit liens on assets, make acquisitions, make investments, loans or advances, sell or transfer assets, pay dividends or distributions, and engage in certain transactions with foreign affiliates. Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at an annual rate equal to Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 1.25% subject to increases based on our actual leverage. The unused balance on the Credit Facility is also subject to a 0.25% annual interest charge subject to increases based on our actual leverage. As of June 30, 2022, there were no borrowings under the Credit Facility and we were in compliance with all covenants.
On April 21, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program of $250 million. The Board's authorization has no expiration date. For the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we have repurchased $180.1$18.9 million of our common stock (2,408 shares)stock. As a result, $231.1 million remains available under our share repurchase program. Our stock repurchase program has been funded by our existing cash and cash equivalent balances as well as cash flows provided by our operations.
Our Board has approved, and we intend to execute, a capital allocation policy that provides for the repurchase of $200 million of our common stock for the period from February 1, 2021 through the end of our 2022 fiscal year, plus the use of approximately 75% of our fiscal 2022 free cash flow for additional repurchases during fiscal year 2022. Since February 1, 2021 through September 30, 2021 we have repurchased $242.2 million of common stock.current authorization.

Net cash provided by operating activities was impacted by net income adjusted for the impact of non-cash charges and a decrease in accounts receivable,accrued liabilities partially offset by a decrease in accrued liabilities.accounts receivable.
Net cash used in investing activities was related to $2.7$1.0 million in the purchase of investmentsequity securities and $2.0$0.9 million of capital expenditures.
Net cash used in financing activities was the result of $180.1$18.9 million of repurchases of common shares and $0.1 million of debt issuance costs partially offset by $23.3$0.7 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Working capital decreased $91.5increased $19.1 million from $234.4$90.0 million as of March 31, 20212022 to $142.9$109.1 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021.2022. The net decreaseincrease in working capital iswas primarily driven by cash provided by operating activities and the resultimpact of cash used for share repurchases during the quarter.foreign currency.
We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and our cash from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital, income taxes, capital expenditures and potential stock repurchases for at least the next twelve months. We may seek additional funding through public or private financings or other arrangements during this period. Adequate funds may not be available when needed or may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities, dilution to existing stockholders will result. If we raise additional funds by obtaining loans from third parties, the terms of those financing arrangements may include negative covenants or other restrictions on our business that could impair our operational flexibility, and would also require us to fund additional interest expense. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, we may be unable to develop or enhance our products or services, take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, we did not have off-balance sheet financing arrangements, including any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities.

Indemnifications
Certain of our software licensing agreements contain certain provisions that indemnify our customers from any claim, suit or proceeding arising from alleged or actual intellectual property infringement. These provisions continue in perpetuity along with our software licensing agreements. We have never incurred a liability relating to one of these indemnification provisions in the past and we believe that the likelihood of any future payout relating to these provisions is remote. Therefore, we have not recorded a liability during any period related to these indemnification provisions.

Foreign Currency Risk
Economic Exposure
As a global company, we face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our international sales are generally denominated in foreign currencies and this revenue could be materially affected by currency fluctuations. Approximately 47%44% of our salesrevenues were from outside the United States for the sixthree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021.2022. Our primary exposures are to fluctuations in exchange rates for the U.S. dollar versus the Euro, and to a lesser extent, the Australian dollar, British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, Chinese yuan, Indian rupee, Korean won and Singapore dollar. Changes in currency exchange rates could adversely affect our reported revenues and require us to reduce our prices to remain competitive in foreign markets, which could also have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Historically, we have periodically reviewed and revised the pricing of our products available to our customers in foreign countries and we have not maintained excess cash balances in foreign accounts.
Transaction Exposure
Our exposure to foreign currency transaction gains and losses is primarily the result of certain net receivables due from our foreign subsidiaries and customers being denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the subsidiary. Our foreign subsidiaries conduct their businesses in local currency and we generally do not maintain excess U.S. dollar cash balances in foreign accounts.
Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in Generalgeneral and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statementsconsolidated statements of Operations.operations. We recognized net foreign currency transaction gains of $0.5 million and losses of less than $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021, respectively. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $1.2 million2022 and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2020,2021, respectively.

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021.2022. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of SeptemberJune 30, 2021.2022.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the secondfirst quarter of fiscal 20222023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
28


Inherent Limitations on Internal Controls
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controlscontrol over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
