2. Concentration of Credit Risk

next 12 months. The Company has no significantoff-balance sheet risk, such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. Financial instruments that potentially exposeexpects to recognize substantially all of the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents principally with accredited financial institutions of high credit standing. Although the Company deposits its cash with multiple financial institutions, its deposits, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company routinely assesses the creditworthiness of its customers. The Company generally has not experienced any material losses related to receivables from individual customers, or groups of customers. The Company does not require collateral. Due to these factors, no additional credit risk beyond amounts provided for collection losses is believedremaining unsatisfied performance obligations by management to be probable in the Company’s accounts receivable.

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, no individual customer accounted for 10% or more of net accounts receivable. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, no individual customer accounted for 10% or more of total revenue.

3. Concentration of Other Risks

The Company is dependent on certain content delivery network providers who provide digital media delivery functionality enabling the Company’son-demand application service to function as intended for the Company’s customers and ultimateend-users. The disruption of these services could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations.

2024.

4. Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Management determines the appropriate classification of investments at the time of purchase, andre-evaluates such determination at each balance sheet date. The Company did not have any short-term or long-term investments at September 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016.

Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of cash on deposit with banks and amounts held in interest-bearing money market accounts. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates their fair market value.

In July 2017, the Company entered into a separation agreement with its former Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), which accelerated the vesting schedule of certain existing stock-based awards held by the CEO. The incremental stock-based compensation expense as a result of the modification of these stock-based awards was $186 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Further, the vesting schedule of certain other stock-based awards held by the CEO accelerates upon a change in control of the Company on or prior to December 31, 2017, which would result in an additional $220 of stock-based compensation expense upon such change in control.

On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted ASUNo. 2016-09. ASU2016-09 identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share based payments, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to make a policy election to recognize gross share based The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur as well as certain classification changes onincluded in the consolidated statement of cash flows. In connection with the adoption of this standard, the Company changed its accounting policy to record actual forfeitures as they occur, rather than estimating forfeitures by applying a forfeiture rate. As this policy change was applied prospectively, prior periods have not been adjusted. The Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment inoperations for the three months ended March 31, 2017, which increased accumulated deficit2022 and additionalpaid-in-capital by $197.

7. Income Taxes
The income tax expense relates principally to the Company’s foreign operations.

The Company is required to compute income tax expense in each jurisdiction in which it operates. This process requires the Company to project its current tax liability and estimate its deferred tax assets and liabilities, including net operating loss (“NOL”) and tax credit carry-forwards. In assessing the ability to realize the net deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability ofprovided a valuation allowance against its U.S. net deferred tax assets. As required by the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740,Income Taxes, management has determined that it ismore-likely-than-not that the Company will not utilize the benefits of federal and stateremaining U.S. net deferred tax assets for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly,as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, based upon the level of historical U.S. losses and future projections over the period in which the net deferred tax assets are subject to a valuation allowancedeductible, at September 30, 2017 and

December 31, 2016. Based on the level of historical income in Japan and future projections, the Companythis time, management believes it is probable itmore likely than not that the Company will not realize the benefits of its futurethese deductible differences. As such,

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company has not recorded a benefit of $1.0 million in the U.S. for the release of a portion of the Company’s valuation allowance.

Legal Matters

The Company, from time to time, is party to litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that the outcome of these claims will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company based on the status of proceedings at this time.

On May 22, 2017, a lawsuit was filed against Brightcove and two individuals by Ooyala, Inc. (“Ooyala”) and Ooyala Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. (“Ooyala Mexico”). The lawsuit, which was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, concerns allegations that the two individuals, who are former employees of Ooyala Mexico, misappropriated customer information and other trade secrets and used that information in working for Brightcove. The complaint was amended on June 1, 2017 to remove claims against the two former employees of Ooyala Mexico. The remaining claims against Brightcove are for violation of the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (18 U.S.C. §1836), violation of the Massachusetts trade secret statute (M.G.L. c. 93, §42), violation of Massachusetts Chapter 93A (M.G.L. c. 93A, §11), and tortious interference with advantageous business relationships. Ooyala and Ooyala Mexico also filed a motion for preliminary injunction (amended at the same time the complaint was amended), seeking to enjoin Brightcove from using any of the allegedly misappropriated information or communicating with customers whose information was allegedly taken, and seeking the return of any information that was taken. On June 16, 2017, Brightcove filed an opposition to the motion for preliminary injunction, and also moved to dismiss the lawsuit. Brightcove’s motion to dismiss was denied on September 6, 2017. The court has not ruled on Ooyala’s motion for preliminary injunction. On October 18, 2017, the court granted the parties’ motion to stay the litigation, and the litigation is currently stayed. The Company cannot yet determine whether it is probable that a loss will be incurred in connection with this complaint, nor can the Company reasonably estimate the potential loss, if any.

Guarantees and Indemnification Obligations

The Company typically enters into indemnification agreements in the ordinary course of business. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company indemnifies and agrees to reimburse the indemnified party for losses and costs incurred by the indemnified party, generally the Company’s customers, in connection with patent, copyright, trade secret, or other intellectual property or personal right infringement claimclaims by third parties with respect to the Company’s technology. The term of these indemnification agreements is generally perpetual after execution of the agreement. Based on when customers first subscribe for the Company’s service, the maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under certain of these indemnification agreements is unlimited, however, more recently the Company has typically limited the maximum potential value of such potential future payments in relation to the value of the contract. Based on historical experience and information known as of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2022, the Company has not incurred any costs for the above guarantees and indemnities. The Company has received requests for indemnification from customers in connection with patent infringement suits brought against the customer by a third party. To date, the Company has not agreed that the requested indemnification is required by the Company’s contract with any such customer.

In certain circumstances, the Company warrants that its products and services will perform in all material respects in accordance with its standard published specification documentation in effect at the time of delivery of the licensed products and services to the customer for the warranty period of the product or service. To date, the Company has not incurred significant expense under its warranties and, as a result, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these agreements is immaterial.

In February 2016, the Company drew down $604 under the December 2015 Equipment Financing Agreement, and the liability was recorded at fair value using a market interest rate. The Company is repaying its obligation over a two year period through January 2018, and the amount outstanding was $104 as of September 30, 2017.

Pro forma results of operations. Based on the Company’s procedures performed to date, nothing has come to its attention that would indicate that the adoption of ASU2014-09 will have a material impact on its revenue recognition on cloud offerings; however, further analysis is required and the Company will continue to evaluate this assessment throughout 2017. While the Company is still evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its financial statements and related disclosures, the Company’s preliminary assessment is that there will be an impact relating to the accounting for costs to acquire a contract. Under the standard, the Company will be required to capitalize certain costs, primarily commission expense to sales representatives, on its consolidated balance sheet and amortize such costs over the period of performanceoperations for the underlying customer contracts. The Company is still evaluatingWicket Acquisition have not been presented because the impact of capitalizing costs to execute a contract.

The Company intends to adopt ASU2014-09 on January 1, 2018. The Company has elected to apply the modified retrospective method of adoption.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-02,Leases (Topic 842), Amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which replaces the existing guidance for leases. ASU2016-02 requires the identification of arrangements that should be accounted for as leases by lessees. In general, lease arrangements exceeding a twelve month term must now be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheeteffect of the lessee. Under ASU2016-02, aright-of-use asset and lease obligation will be recorded for all leases, whether operating or financing, while the income statement will reflect lease expense for operating leases and amortization/interest expense for financing leases. The balance sheet amount recorded for existing leases at the date of adoption of ASU2016-02 must be calculated using the applicable incremental borrowing rate at the date of adoption. In addition, ASU2016-02 requires the use of the modified retrospective method, which will require adjustment to all comparative periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and requires retrospective application. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting ASU2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-15,Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which reduces the diversity in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU2016-15 is effective for public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted.

solutions or other third-party solutions and some customers acquired in the Ooyala acquisition deciding not to switch to our solution. Volume customers decreased since 2013in recent periods primarily due to our discontinuation of the promotional Video Cloud Express offering. As a result, we have experienced attrition of this base level offering without a corresponding addition of customers.

We calculate the net revenue retention rate by dividing: (a) the current annualized recurring revenue for premium customers that existed twelve months prior by (b) the annualized recurring revenue for all premium customers that existed twelve months prior. We define annualized recurring revenue for premium customers as the aggregate annualized contract value from our premium customer base, measured as of the end of a given period. We typically calculate our net revenue retention rate on a quarterly basis. For annual periods, we report net revenue retention rate as the average of the net revenue retention rate for all fiscal quarters included in the period. By dividing the retained recurring revenue by the base recurring revenue, we measure our success in retaining and growing installed revenue from the specific cohort of customers we served at the beginning of the period.

R
ecurring Dollar Retention Rate.
We assess our ability to retain customers using a metric we refer to as our recurring dollar retention rate. We calculate the recurring dollar retention rate by dividing the retained recurring value of subscription revenue for a period by the previous recurring value of subscription revenue for the same period. We define retained recurring value of subscription revenue as the committed subscription fees for all contracts that renew in a given period, including any increase or decrease in contract value. We define previous recurring value of subscription revenue as the recurring value from committed subscription fees for all contracts that expire in that same period. We typically calculate our recurring dollar retention rate on a monthly basis. Recurring dollar retention rate provides visibility into our ongoing revenue. The recurring dollar retention rate decreased from 97% during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to 90% during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease is primarily due to the loss of certain customers as well as a reduction in contract value, based on certain commodity elements being repriced within our media market.

Average Annual Subscription Revenue Per Premium Customer. We define average annual subscription revenue per premium customer as the total subscription revenue from premium customers for an annual period, excluding professional services revenue, divided by the average number of premium customers for that period. We believe that this metric is important in understanding subscription revenue for our premium offerings in addition to the relative size of premium customer arrangements. We began selling our Starter edition to customers in the second quarter of 2016. We consider Starter to be a premium offering and thus include Starter customers as premium customers. Our Starter edition has a price point of $199 or $499 per month, and as of the first quarter of 2017, sales of our Starter edition have reached such a level that we have determined that the overall average annual subscription revenue per premium customer is a more meaningful metric if we exclude revenue from Starter edition customers. As such, we now disclose the average annual subscription revenue per premium customer separately for Starter edition customers and all other premium customers.

We define retained recurring value of subscription revenue as the committed subscription fees for all contracts that renew in a given period, including any increase or decrease in contract value.

We typically calculate our recurring dollar retention rate on a monthly basis. Recurring dollar retention rate provides visibility into our ongoing revenue.

Average Annual Subscription Revenue Per Premium Customer
. We define average annual subscription revenue per premium customer as the total subscription revenue from premium customers for an annual period, excluding professional services revenue, divided by the average number of premium customers for that period. We believe that this metric is important in understanding subscription revenue for our premium offerings in addition to the relative size of premium customer arrangements. As our Starter edition has a price point of $199 or $499 per month, we disclose the average annual subscription revenue per premium customer separately for Starter edition customers and all other premium customers.
Backlog
. We define backlog as the aggregate amount of transaction price that is allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied, excluding professional service engagements. We believe that this metric is important in understanding future business performance.
COVID-19
and Geopolitical Events
While the future trends of
the COVID-19 pandemic
remain uncertain, we have not experienced a significant disruption during the pandemic. We will continue to monitor
COVID-19’s
effect on our employees, customers, vendors and the regions we operate in.
In late February 2022, Russian military forces launched significant military action against Ukraine, and sustained conflict and disruption in the region is likely. Subsequent to the invasion, the U.S. and other countries imposed economic sanctions against officials, individuals, regions, and industries in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. We do not have operations or customers in Russia or Ukraine and none of our material vendors source their services to us from Russia or Ukraine. We will continue to monitor the situation and comply with any sanctions and restrictions imposed by the U.S. government.

Subscription and Support Revenue
 — We generate subscription and support revenue from the sale of our products.

Video Cloud is offered in two product lines. The first product line is comprised of our premium product editions, Pro and Enterprise.editions. All Pro and Enterprisepremium editions include functionality to publish and distribute video to Internet-connected devices. The Enterprise edition providesdevices, with higher levels of premium editions providing additional features and functionality such as a multi-account environment andIP-restricted players.functionality. Customer arrangements are typically one year
one-year
contracts, which include a subscription to Video Cloud, basic support
and a pre-determined
amount of video streams, bandwidth, transcoding and managed content (which includes storage).storage. We also offer gold, support or platinum and platinum plus support to our premium customers for an additional fee, which includes extended phone support.fee. The pricing for our premium editions is based on the value of our software, as well as the number of users, accounts and usage, which is comprised of video streams, bandwidth, transcoding and managed content.storage. Should a customer’s usage exceed the contractual entitlements, the contract will provide the rate at which the customer must pay for actual usage above the contractual entitlements. We believe that our bundled pricing approach has made it easier for our customers to purchase all of the elements required to manage, store and deliver their video assets to their viewers. Pricing for some of thenon-software elements of our products, however—such as bandwidth and managed content (primarily storage)—has been subject to moderate but consistent pricing pressure as a result of competition among bandwidth and cloud infrastructure providers. This pricing pressure has not historically had a meaningful impact on our results of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we experienced an unexpected, significant increase in the impact of the price competition among bandwidth and cloud infrastructure providers in the markets for these increasingly commoditizednon-software services. As a result, our recurring dollar retention rate decreased in the nine months ended September 30, 2017. We have taken steps to reduce the portion of our revenue that is subject to such pricing pressure by bringing new solutions, such as Dynamic Delivery (formerly known as Bolt), to market. We believe that these new solutions increase the value of our software platform to customers and allow us to retain a larger portion of the customers’ total contract value while reducing the revenue related tonon-software elements. However, as a result of the impact of the commoditization of thenon-software elements, we now expect that our subscription revenue growth rate will be impacted through the first quarter of 2018.

The second product line is comprised of our volume product edition, which we refer to as our Express edition. Our Express edition targets volume editions target

small andmedium-sized businesses, or
SMBs. The Express edition providesvolume editions provide customers with the same basic functionality that is offered in our premium product editions but hashave been designed for customers who have lower usage requirements and do not typically seekrequire advanced features and functionality. We discontinued the lower level pricing options for the Express edition of our volume offering and expect the total number of customers using the Express edition to continue to decrease. Customers who purchase the Express editionvolume editions generally

Professional Services and Other Revenue
— Professional services and other revenue consists of services such as implementation, software customizations and project management for customers who subscribe to our premium editions. These arrangements are priced either on a fixed fee basis with a portion due upon contract signing and the remainder due when the related services have been completed, or on a time and materials basis.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of subscription, support and professional services revenue primarily consists of costs related to supporting and hosting our product offerings and delivering our professional services. These costs include salaries, benefits, incentive compensation and stock-based compensation expense related to the management of our data centers, our customer support team and our professional services staff. In addition to these expenses, we incur third-party service provider costs such as data center and content delivery network, or CDN, expenses, allocated overhead, depreciation expense and amortization of
capitalizedinternal-use software
development costs and acquired intangible assets. We allocate overhead costs such as rent, utilities and supplies to all departments based on relative headcount. As such, general overhead expenses are reflected in cost of revenue in addition to each operating expense category. The costs associated with providing professional services are significantly higher as a percentage of related revenue than the costs associated with delivering our subscription and support services due to the labor costs of providing professional services.

Cost of revenue increased in absolute dollars from the first ninethree months of 20162021 to the first ninethree months of 2017.2022. In future periods we expect our cost of revenue will increase in absolute dollars as our revenue increases. We also expect that cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue will decrease over time as we are able to achieve economies of scale in our business. However, costCost of revenue as a percentage of revenue could fluctuate from period to period depending on the growthnumber of our professional services businessengagements and any associated costs relating to the delivery of subscription services and the timing of significant expenditures. To the extent that our customer base grows, we intend to continue to invest additional resources in expanding the delivery capability of our products and other services. The timing of these additional expenses could affect our cost of revenue, both in terms of absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue, in any particular quarterly or annual period.

Operating Expenses

We classify our operating expenses as follows:

Research and Development
. Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel and related expenses for our research and development staff, including salaries, benefits, incentive compensation and stock-based compensation, in addition to the costs associated with contractors and allocated overhead. We have focused our research and development efforts on expanding the functionality and scalability of our products and enhancing their ease of use, as well as creating new product offerings. We expect research and development expenses to increase in absolute dollars as we intend to continue to periodically release new features and functionality, expand our product offerings, continue the localization of our products in various languages, upgrade and extend our service offerings, and develop new technologies. Over the long term, we believe that research and development expenses as a percentage of revenue will decrease, but will vary depending upon the mix of revenue from new and existing products, features and functionality, as well as changes in the technology that our products must support, such as new operating systems or new Internet-connected devices.

20

Sales and Marketing
. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel and related expenses for our sales and marketing staff, including salaries, benefits, incentive compensation, commissions, stock-based compensation and travel costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, in addition to costs associated with marketing and promotional events, corporate communications, advertising, other brand building and product marketing expenses and allocated overhead. Our sales and marketing expenses have increased in absolute dollars in each of the last three years. We intend to continue to invest in sales and marketing and increase the number of sales representatives to add new customers and expand the sale of our product offerings within our existing customer base, build brand awareness and sponsor additional marketing events. Accordingly, in future periods we expect sales and marketing expense to increase in absolute dollars and continue to be our most significant operating expense.expense in future periods. Over the long term, we believe that sales and marketing expense as a percentage of revenue will decrease, but will vary depending upon the mix of revenue from new and existing customers and from
small,medium-sized and
enterprise customers, as well as changes in the productivity of our sales and marketing programs.

General and Administrative
. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel and related expenses for executive, legal, finance, information technology and human resources functions, including salaries, benefits, incentive compensation and stock-based compensation, in addition tocompensation. General and administrative expenses also include the costs associated with professional fees, insurance premiums, other corporate expenses and allocated overhead. In future periods we expect general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars as we continue to incur additional personnel and professional services costs in order to support the growth of our business. Over the long term, we believe that general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue will decrease.

Merger-related
. Merger-related costs consistedconsist of transaction expenses incurred as part of the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Unicorn Media, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries, or Unicorn, as well as costs associated with the retention of key employees of Unicorn. Approximately $1.5 million was required to be paid to retain certain key employees from the Unicorn acquisition. The period in which these services were performed varies by employee. Given that the retention amount was related to a future service requirement,mergers and acquisitions, integration costs and general corporate development activities.
Other Expense

losses.

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We account for income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using statutory rates. In addition, this method requires a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We have provided a valuation allowance against our existing U.S. net deferred tax assets at September 30, 2017, withDecember 31, 2021. We maintain net deferred tax liabilities for temporary differences related to our Japanese subsidiary.
During the exceptionthree months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded a non-recurring benefit of $1.0 million in the U.S. for the release of a portion of our valuation allowance. This release of the valuation allowance is related to the Wicket Acquisition completed in February 2022 and the creation of deferred tax assets related to Brightcove KK.

liabilities in purchase accounting that serve as a source of income for our pre-existing deferred tax assets.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

Our cost of revenue, research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses include stock-based compensation expense. Stock-based compensation expense represents the grant date fair value of outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards, which is recognized as expense over the respective stock option and restricted stock award service periods. For the three months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 and 2016,2021, we recorded $1.8$3.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, we recorded $5.3 million and $4.3$2.3 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense. We expect stock-based compensation expense to increase in absolute dollars in future periods.

Foreign Currency Translation

With regard to our international operations, we frequently enter into transactions in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As a result, our revenue, expenses and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly changes in the euro, British pound, Australian dollar, and Japanese yen. For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, 46% and 43%, respectively, of our revenue was generated in locations outside the United States. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, 45% and 42%, respectively, of our revenue was generated in locations outside the United States. During the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, 28% and 29%, respectively, of our revenue was in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, as were some of the associated expenses. During each of the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, 28% of our revenue was in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, as were some of the associated expenses. In periods when the U.S. dollar declines in value as compared to the foreign currencies in which we conduct business, our foreign currency-based revenue and expenses generally increase in value when translated into U.S. dollars. We expect our foreign currency-basedthe percentage of total net revenue derived from outside North America to increase in absolute dollars andfuture periods as a percentage of total revenue.

we continue to expand our international operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our revenue from premium offerings decreased by $1.3 million, or 3%2%, in the three months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016 due to an increase in professional services and other revenue of 37%, or $805,000, and an increase in subscription and support revenue of 1%, or $293,000. The increase in professional services revenue was primarily related to the size and number of professional services engagements during the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the corresponding quarter in the prior year. The increase in subscription and support revenue was primarily related to the continued growth of our customer base for our premium offerings including sales to both new and existing customers. The increases are offset by the loss of a major customer, during the first quarter of 2017, and a $556,000 reduction in revenue due to changes in foreign exchange rates compared to the exchange rates that were in effect during the three months ended September 30, 2016. In addition, our revenue from premium offerings grew by $1.6 million, or 4%, in the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016.March 31, 2021. Our ability to continue to provide the product functionality and performance that our customers require will be a major factor in our ability to continue to increase revenue.

The U.S. dollar has strengthened against the Japanese Yen and the Euro when compared against exchange rates during the prior year period of comparison. In constant currency, our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 would have been approximately $54.6 million. The majority of the effect of revenue in constant currency was in revenues denominated in Japanese Yen of $0.7 million and Euro of $0.3 million. Constant currency is calculated as translating current period revenue denominated in foreign currencies at the exchange rates of the prior period of comparison.
Our gross profit decreased by $1.6$1.3 million, or 7%4%, in the three months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016,March 31, 2021, primarily due to increasesa decrease in revenue and an increase in the cost of subscription and support revenue and the cost of professional services revenue without corresponding increases in revenue. Cost of professional services revenue increased due to a higher level of contractor costs and project hours during the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to that of the three months ended September 30, 2016. Our ability to improvecontinue to maintain our overall gross profit will depend primarily on our ability to continue controlling our

Loss from operations was $5.3$2.0 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 compared to $1.6a net income from operations of $6.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2016. Loss from operationsMarch 31, 2021. This is primarily due to a decrease in revenue of $1.4 million, the decrease in gross profit of $1.7 million and an increase in operating expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2017 included stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangible assets of $1.8 million and $674,000, respectively. Loss from operations inMarch 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016 included stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangible assets of $1.7 million and $784,000, respectively.

Research and Development
.
 In the three months ended March 31, 2022, research and development remained relatively unchanged compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. We expect our research and development expense as a percentage of revenue to remain relatively unchanged.
Sales and Marketing
.
In the three months ended March 31, 2022, sales and marketing expense increased by $2.1 million, or 13%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016 due to the loss of a major customer. Professional services and other gross profit decreased $689,000, or 689% compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016 due to the increase in mix of contractor expenses versus internal expenses in order to support various professional services projects. It is likely that gross profit, as a percentage of revenue, will fluctuate quarter by quarter due to the timing and mix of subscription and support revenue and professional services and other revenue, and the type, timing and duration of service required in delivering certain projects.

Research and Development. In the three months ended September 30, 2017, research and development expense increased by $116,000, or 2%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016March 31, 2021, primarily due to increasesan increase in computer maintenanceemployee-related, contractor, and support and employee-relatedrent expenses of $146,000$1.5 million, $282, and $141,000,$305, respectively. In future periods, we expect that our research and development expense will increase in absolute dollars as we continue to add employees, develop new features and functionality for our products, introduce additional software solutions and expand our product and service offerings.

Sales and Marketing. In the three months ended September 30, 2017, sales and marketing expense increased by $1.2 million, or 9%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016 primarily due to employee-related expense, marketing programs, commission expense, and computer maintenance and support expenses of $865,000, $296,000, $108,000 and $106,000, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in recruiting and relocation expense of $154,000. We expect that our sales and marketing expense will increase in absolute dollars along with our revenue,for the remainder of 2022 as compared to the prior period as we will continue to expand sales coverage and build brand awareness through what we believe are cost-effective channels. We expect that such increases may fluctuate from periodinvest in these activities to period, however, due to the timing of marketing programs.

Overviewexpense of Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

Total revenue increased by $4.2 million, or 4%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016 due to an increase in professional services and other revenue of 67%, or $3.8 million. The increase in professional services revenue was primarily related to the size and number of professional services engagements during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the corresponding period$257 in the prior year. Subscription and support revenue remained relatively unchanged during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. In addition, our revenue from premium offerings grew by $5.6 million, or 5%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016 primarily due to an 7% increase in the number of premium customers from 1,981 at September 30, 2016 to 2,113 at September 30, 2017. These increases are offset by a $1.9 million reduction in revenue due to changes in foreign exchange rates compared to the exchange rates that were in effect during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Our gross profit decreased by $3.6 million, or 5%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily due to increases in the cost of subscription and support revenue and the cost of professional services revenue without corresponding increases in revenue. Cost of subscription and support revenue increased due to additional costs incurred in order to support the launch of a major customer during the second quarter of 2017. Cost of professional services revenue increased due to a higher level of contractor costs and project hours during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to that of the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Our ability to improve our overall gross profit will depend primarily on our ability to continue controlling our costs of delivery. Loss from operations was $18.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to $5.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Loss from operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 included stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangible assets of $5.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively. Loss from operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 included stock-based compensation expense and amortization of acquired intangible assets of $4.3 million and $2.3 million, respectively.

For purposes of this section, we designate revenue by geographic regions based upon the locations of our customers. North America is comprised of revenue from the United States, Canada and Mexico. International is comprised of revenue from locations outside of North America. Depending on the timing of new customer contracts, revenue mix from a geographic region can vary from period to period.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2017, total revenue for North America decreased $708,000, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The reduction in revenue for North America is primarily related to the loss of a major customer in the first quarter of 2017 partially offset by increases in sales to new and existing customers. In the nine months ended September 30, 2017, total revenue outside of North America increased $4.9 million, or 11%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in revenue from international regions is primarily related to an increase in revenue in Asia Pacific and Japan. The increase in revenue from Asia Pacific and Japan is primarily related to an increase in revenue from professional services engagements related to OTT application development projects. These increases were partially offset by a $1.9 million reduction in revenue due to changes in foreign exchange rates compared to the exchange rates that were in effect during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2017, cost of subscription and support revenue increased $3.1 million, or 9%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase resulted primarily from increases in content delivery network, network hosting, and amortization expenses related to internal-use software of $929,000, $864,000, and $851,000, respectively. There were also increases in partner commission, maintenance, and employee-related expenses of $519,000, $378,000, and $296,000, respectively, as well as increases in costs associated with third-party software integrated with our service offering, contractor expense, and stock-based compensation expenses of $135,000, $117,000 and $104,000, respectively. These increases were partially offset by decreases in depreciation and bandwidth expenses of $814,000 and $244,000, respectively.

Accounts receivable, net.

Our accounts receivable balance fluctuates from period to period, which affects our cash flow from operating activities. The fluctuations vary depending on the timing of our billing activity, cash collections, and changes to our allowance for doubtful accounts. In many instances we receive cash payment from a customer prior to the time we are able to recognize revenue on a transaction. We record these payments as deferred revenue, which has a positive effect on our accounts receivable balances. We use days’ sales outstanding, or DSO, calculated on a quarterly basis, as a measurement of the quality and status of our receivables. We define DSO as (a) accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, divided by total revenue for the most recent quarter, multiplied by (b) the number of days in that quarter. DSO was 61 days at September 30, 2017 and 53 days at December 31, 2016.

On November 19, 2015,December 28, 2020, we entered into an amended and restated loan and security agreement with a lender (the “Loan Agreement”) providing for up to a $20.0$30.0 million asset basedasset-based line of credit (the “Line of Credit”). Under the Line of Credit, we can borrow up to $20.0 million. Borrowings under the Line of Credit are secured by substantially all of our assets, excluding our intellectual property. Outstanding amounts under the Line of Credit accrue interest at a rate equal to the prime rate or the LIBOR rate plus 2.5%. Under the Loan Agreement, we must comply with certain financial covenants, including maintaining a minimum asset coverage ratio. If the outstanding principal during any month is at least $15.0 million, the Company must also maintain a minimum net income threshold based onnon-GAAP operating measures. Failure to comply with these covenants, or the occurrence of an event of default, could permit the Lenders under the Line of Credit to declare all amounts borrowed under the Line of Credit, together with accrued interest and fees, to be immediately due and payable. We were in compliance with all covenants under the Line of Credit as of September 30, 2017.

On DecemberMarch 31, 2015,2022. As we have not drawn on the Company entered into an equipment financing agreement with a lender (the “December 2015 Equipment Financing Agreement”) to finance the purchaseLine of $604,000 in computer equipment. In February 2016, the Company drew down $604,000 under the December 2015 Equipment Financing Agreement, and the liability was recorded at fair value using a market interest rate. The Company is repaying its obligation over a two year period through January 2018, and the amountCredit, there are no amounts outstanding was $104,000 as of September 30, 2017.

Net operating loss carryforwards.

As of December 31, 2016,2021, we had federal and state net operating losses of approximately $155.5$161.8 million and $57.4$89.2 million, respectively, which are available to offset future taxable income, if any, through 2035. Included in the2037 and 2041, respectively.

We had federal and state research and development tax credits of $5.4$9.0 million and $3.5$5.5 million, respectively, which expire in various amounts through 2035.2041. Our net operating loss and tax credit amounts are subject to annual limitations under Section 382 change of ownership rules of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. We completed an assessment to determine whether there may have been a Section 382 ownership change and determined that it is more likely than not that our net operating and tax credit amounts as disclosed are not subject to any material Section 382 limitations.

In assessing our ability to utilize our net deferred tax assets, we considered whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of our net deferred tax assets will not be realized. Based upon the level of our historical U.S. losses and future projections over the period in which the net deferred tax assets are deductible, at this time, we believe it is more likely than not that we will not realize the benefits of these deductible differences. Accordingly, we have provided a valuation allowance against our U.S. deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2016.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Our principal commitments consist primarily of obligations under our leases for our office space and contractual commitments for capital leases and equipment financing as well as content delivery network services, hosting and other support services. Other than these lease obligations and contractual commitments, we do not have commercial commitments under lines of credit, standby repurchase obligations or other such debt arrangements.

Our contractual obligations as of December 31, 20162021 are summarized in our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2016. In addition to the obligations outlined in our Annual Report on Form10-K, we entered into an agreement with anon-cancelable commitment in January 2017, primarily for content delivery and network storage service, with obligations of $15.8 million through December 31, 2018. As of September 30, 2017, our obligation was $4.8 million in connection with this agreement.

In July 2017, we entered into an agreement with anon-cancelable commitment effective July 1, 2017, primarily for content delivery and network storage service, with obligations of $2.5 million through September 30, 2018. In September 2017, we amended this agreement effective September 1, 2017 with total obligations of $2.6 million through January 31, 2019. As of September 30, 2017, our obligation was $2.6 million in connection with this agreement.

In August 2017, we entered into an agreement to lease a new office space in London with anon-cancelable commitment with obligations of $7.0 million through December 31, 2024.

Anticipated Cash Flows

We expect to incur significant operating costs, particularly related to serviceservices delivery costs, sales and marketing and research and development, for the foreseeable future in order to execute our business plan. We anticipate that such operating costs, as well as planned capital expenditures will constitute a material use of our cash resources. As a result, our net cash flows will depend heavily on the level of future sales, changes in deferred revenue and our ability to manage infrastructure costs.

We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents and credit facility will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Our future working capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the rate of our revenue growth, our introduction of new products and enhancements, and our expansion of sales and marketing and product development activities. To the extent that our cash and cash equivalents, and cash flow from operating activities are insufficient to fund our future activities, we may need to raise additional funds through bank credit arrangements or public or private equity or debt financings. We also may need to raise additional funds in the event we determine in the future to acquire businesses, technologies and products that will complement our existing operations. In the event funding is required, we may not be able to obtain bank credit arrangements or equity or debt financing on terms acceptable to us or at all.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK (in thousands, except share and per share data, unless otherwise noted)
We have operations both within the United States and internationally, and we are exposed to market risks in the ordinary course of our business. These risks include primarily foreign exchange risks, interest rate and inflation.

Financial instruments

Financial instruments meeting fair value disclosure requirements consist of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying amount.

Foreign currency exchange risk

Our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly changes in the euro, British pound, Australian dollar and Japanese yen. Except for revenue transactions in Japan, we enter into transactions directly with substantially all of our foreign customers.

Percentage of revenues and expenses in foreign currency is as follows:

As of September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2016,2021, we had $8.4$7.8 million and $5.6$8.3 million, respectively, of receivables denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We also maintain cash accounts denominated in currencies other than the local currency, which exposes us to foreign exchange rate movements.

In addition, although our foreign subsidiaries have intercompany accounts that are eliminated upon consolidation, these accounts expose us to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Exchange rate fluctuations on short-term intercompany accounts are recorded in our consolidated statements of operations under “other (expense) income, (expense), net”, while exchange rate fluctuations on long-term intercompany accounts are recorded in our consolidated balance sheets under “accumulatedas a component of other comprehensive income” in stockholders’ equity,(loss) income, as they are considered part of our net investment and hence do not give rise to gains or losses.

Currently, our largest foreign currency exposures are the euro and British pound and Japanese yen, primarily because our European and Japanese operations have a higher proportion of our local currency denominated expenses.expenses, in addition to the Japanese Yen as result of our ongoing operations in Japan. Relative to foreign currency exposures existing at September 30, 2017,March 31, 2022, a 10% unfavorable movement in foreign currency exchange rates would expose us to significant losses in earnings or cash flows or significantly diminish the fair value of our foreign currency financial instruments. For the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2022, we estimated that a 10% unfavorable movement in
28

Table of Contents
foreign currency exchange rates would have decreased revenues by $3.3$1.6 million, decreased expenses by $2.0 million$900 and decreased operating income by $1.3 million.$700. The estimates used assume that all currencies move in the same direction at the same time and the ratio
ofnon-U.S. dollar
denominated revenue and expenses to U.S. dollar denominated revenue and expenses does not change from current levels. Since a portion of our revenue is deferred revenue that is recorded at different foreign currency exchange rates, the impact to revenue of a change in foreign currency exchange rates is recognized over time, and the impact to expenses is more immediate, as expenses are recognized at the current foreign currency exchange rate in effect at the time the expense is incurred. All of the potential changes noted above are based on sensitivity analyses performed on our financial results as of September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Interest rate risk

Cash and cash equivalents were invested primarily in money market fundscash and are held for working capital purposes. We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio. Declines in interest rates, however, would reduce future interest income. We incurred $6,000 and $15,000 ofdid not incur interest expense duringin the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $22,000 and $51,000March 31, 2022.

However, if our costs, in particular personnel, sales and marketing and hosting costs, were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2022, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures defined in Rules
13a-15(e)
and
15d-15(e)
under the Exchange Act. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including ensuring that such material information is accumulated by and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required
by Rule13a-15(d) and15d-15(d) of
the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On May 22, 2017, a lawsuit was filed against us and two individuals by Ooyala, Inc. (“Ooyala”) and Ooyala Mexico S. de R.L. de C.V. (“Ooyala Mexico”). The lawsuit, which was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, concerns allegations that the two individuals, who are former employees of Ooyala Mexico, misappropriated customer information and other trade secrets and used that information in working for Brightcove. The complaint was amended on June 1, 2017 to remove claims against the two former employees of Ooyala Mexico. The remaining claims against us are for violation of the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (18 U.S.C. §1836), violation of the Massachusetts trade secret statute (M.G.L. c. 93, §42), violation of Massachusetts Chapter 93A (M.G.L. c. 93A, §11), and tortious interference with advantageous business relationships. Ooyala and Ooyala Mexico also filed a motion for preliminary injunction (amended at the same time the complaint was amended), seeking to enjoin us from using any of the allegedly misappropriated information or communicating with customers whose information was taken, and seeking the return of any information that was allegedly taken. On June 16, 2017, we filed an opposition to the motion for preliminary injunction, and also moved to dismiss the lawsuit. Brightcove’s motion to dismiss was denied on September 6, 2017. The court has not ruled on Ooyala’s motion for preliminary injunction. On October 18, 2017, the court granted the parties’ motion to stay the litigation, and the litigation is currently stayed.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We, cannot yet determine whether it is probable that a loss will be incurred in connection with this complaint, nor can we reasonably estimate the potential loss, if any.

In addition, we are, from time to time, are party to litigation arising in the ordinary course of our business. Management does not believe that the outcome of these claims will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows based on the status of proceedings at this time.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described in our Quarterly Reportannual report on Form10-Q
10-K
for the quarterfiscal year ended MarchDecember 31, 2017,2021, under the heading “Part III — Item 1A. Risk Factors,” together with the additional risk factor included below and all of the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q.
Our business, prospects, financial condition, or operating results could be harmed by any of these risks, as well as other risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial. If any of such risks and uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results could differ materially from the plans, projections and other forward-looking statements included in the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this report and in our other public filings. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and, as a result, you may lose all or part of your investment.

Weakened global economic conditions may harm our industry, business and results of operations.
Our overall performance depends in part on worldwide economic conditions. Global financial developments and downturns seemingly unrelated to us or the software industry may harm us. The U.S. and other key international economies have been no material changesaffected from time to time by falling demand for a variety of goods and services, restricted credit, poor liquidity, reduced corporate profitability, volatility in credit, equity and foreign exchange markets, bankruptcies, inflation and overall uncertainty with respect to the information set fortheconomy, including with respect to tariff and trade issues. In particular, the economies of countries in Part I. Item 1A. “Risk Factors”Europe have been experiencing weakness associated with high sovereign debt levels, weakness in the banking sector, uncertainty over the future of the Euro zone and volatility in the value of the pound sterling and the Euro, including instability surrounding Brexit, and instability resulting from the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The effect of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, including any resulting sanctions, export controls or other restrictive actions that may be imposed against governmental or other entities in, for example, Russia, have in the past contributed and may in the future contribute to disruption, instability and volatility in the global markets. We have operations, as well as current and potential new customers in Europe. If economic conditions in Europe and other key markets for our platform continue to remain uncertain or deteriorate further, it could adversely affect our customers’ ability or willingness to subscribe to our platform, delay prospective customers’ purchasing decisions, reduce the value or duration of their subscriptions or affect renewal rates, all of which could harm our operating results.
More recently, inflation rates in the U.S. have increased to levels not seen in several years, which may result in decreased demand for our products and services, increases in our Quarterly Report on Form10-Q foroperating costs including our labor costs, constrained credit and liquidity, reduced government spending and volatility in financial markets. The Federal Reserve has raised, and may again raise, interest rates in response to concerns over inflation risk. There continues to be uncertainty in the quarter ended March 31, 2017, except forchanging market and economic conditions, including the possibility of additional risk factor set forth below:

If we do not successfully manage the transition associated with the resignation of our former Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the appointment of a new CEO, itmeasures that could be viewed negativelytaken by our customersthe Federal Reserve and shareholdersother government agencies, related to the COVID-19 pandemic and concerns over inflation risk. A sharp rise in interest rates could have an adverse impact on the fair market value of certain securities in our business.

David Mendels resigned from his position as the Company’s CEO and resigned from the Board effective July 24, 2017. Andrew Feinberg, the Company’s President and Chief Operations Officer, is serving as the Company’s acting CEO. The Board has an active search process underway to select the next CEO from internal and external candidates. Such leadership transitions can be inherently difficult to manage, and an inadequate transition of our CEO may cause disruption to our business, including to our relationships with customers and employees. In addition, if we are unable to attract and retain a qualified candidate to become our permanent CEO in a timely manner, our ability to meetportfolio, which could adversely affect our financial and operational goals and strategic plans may be adversely impacted, as well as our financial performance. It may also make it more difficult to retain other key employees.
