certain judgment set forth in the Statement of Decision issued by the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Diego on March 3, 2022, (iv) released UAGC from all remaining obligations under the UAGC/Zovio Agreements, and (v) granted UAGC and University of Arizona a general release of all claims.
The gain on the sale of TutorMe noted above was partially offset by a $5.8 million loss on transaction recognized for the net asset adjustment from Global Campus in connection with the Transaction on July 31, 2022.
Following the consummation of the Transaction on July 31, 2022, Zovio and UAGC have no contractual or other relationship with one another, other than an agreement to reasonably cooperate to effect the Transaction. As of the date hereof, UAGC operates the University as an integrated, online university. Zovio will continue to support the continued growth and expansion of its Fullstack Academy subsidiary and simultaneously explore strategic alternatives for that business. For additional information, see Note 16, “Subsequent Events.”
Prior to the Transaction, the majority of the Company's cash comescame from the Services Agreement with Global Campus. The service fees in the Services Agreement arewere subject to certain minimum residual liability adjustments, including performance-based adjustments, minimum profit level adjustments, and excess direct cost adjustments. These adjustments are all variable in nature in that they depend upon the Company’s performance during each service period, and to a certain extent the performance and forecast of Global Campus.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 15, 2022. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented.
Operating results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for complete annual consolidated financial statements.
Going Concern and Liquidity
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had combined cash and cash equivalents of $20.8 million, compared with combined cash and cash equivalents of $28.3 million as of December 31, 2021. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company sold TutorMe for $55.0 million as described in Note 1, “Nature of Business,” and used the proceeds to pay down its debt of $31.5 million as described in Note 8, “Credit Facilities,” and pay the $22.4 million in statutory penalties for the California Attorney General matter as described in Note 14, “Commitments and Contingencies.” The Company had negative cash flows from operations of $15.4 million for the fiscal year 2021, and negative cash flows from operations of $57.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
The Company’s Services Agreement with Global Campus was subject to certain adjustments that impacted the amount and timing of cash flows, which payment terms were modified in April 2022 for the months of July, August and September

2022. Further, Global Campus incurred higher costs in their fourth quarter (the Company's second quarter) than the Company previously budgeted. On or about June 15, 2022, Global Campus advised the Company that Global Campus received a notice from the Department of Defense that they were placed on probation which would preclude them from enrolling new military students, pending completion of a comprehensive review. Additionally, there were communications from the Department of Defense to current Global Campus students cautioning them to consider leaving the University. We were advised by Global Campus that this matter should be resolved in a timely manner, however, it became apparent over the following weeks that these prolonged actions were having a negative impact on the University's revenue and therefore a negative impact on the Company's financial outlook. As a result, the Company entered into a new agreement with Global Campus, effective on July 31, 2022, which allowed Global Campus to acquire the business previously used to provide services to Global Campus. For additional information, see Note 16, “Subsequent Events.”
The Company will continue to support the continued growth and expansion of its Fullstack subsidiary and simultaneously explore strategic alternatives for that business. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company generating cash from its operations and availability to other funding sources. Due to the Company’s negative cash flows from operations and projected future negative cash flows from operations resulting from the Transaction with Global Campus and reduction of availability of debt financing, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months following the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. Management plans to cover any shortfall from operations by selling its Fullstack subsidiary or obtaining debt financing. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in these efforts.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company assesses potential impairment to its long-lived assets under ASC 360, Property and Equipment. The Company makes this assessment when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recorded if the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Any required impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds fair value and is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset and an expense to operating results. Due to the Transaction with Global Campus on July 31, 2022, the Company’s qualitative assessment indicated that an impairment in the Company’s long-lived assets occurred as of June 30, 2022. For additional information, see Note 16, “Subsequent Events.”
The Company recorded an impairment of its long-lived assets during the six-months ended June 30, 2022 in the consolidated statements of income (loss) of $35.9 million as follows:
Property and equipment, net$22,596 
Operating lease assets10,370 
Intangibles, net976 
Other long-term assets1,945 
Impairment of long-lived assets$35,887 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. As noted above, these condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

8. Credit Facilities
The Company has issued letters of credit that are collateralized with cash, in the aggregate amount of $6.0 million as of March 31,June 30, 2022. The letters of credit relate primarily to the Company's leased facilities and insurance requirements. The collateralized cash is held in restricted cash on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company is required to provide surety bonds in certain states in which it does business. As a result, the Company previously entered into a surety bond facility with an insurance company to provide such bonds when required. Although there are no remaining issued bonds on the Company’s behalf under this facility as of March 31,June 30, 2022, the Company still holds certain liability associated with any required collateral.

Operating Leases
The Company leases various office and classroom facilities with terms that expire at various dates through 2033. These facilities are used for academic operations, corporate functions, enrollment services and student support services. The Company does not have any leases other than its office facilities and classrooms. All of the leases were classified as operating leases for the period ended March 31,June 30, 2022, and the Company does not have any finance leases. All of the leases, other than those that may qualify for the short-term scope exception of 12 months or less, are recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
In 2021, the Company entered into a new lease in New York for classrooms and office space and recorded a right-of-use asset of $14.6 million in exchange for lease obligations. However, in the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company began to market this space for sublease. There is no impairment indicator at this time, but there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to sublease the space at rates materially similar to that of the current lease.
The Company's 1 active sublease as of March 31,June 30, 2022 relates to office space of approximately 21,000 square feet in Denver, Colorado with a remaining commitment to lease of 118 months and net lease payments of $0.6$0.4 million.

As of June 30, 2022, unrecognized compensation cost was $4.3 million related to unvested stock options, RSUs and PSUs.
12. Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset-liability method to account for taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities result from temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements that will result in income and deductions in future years.
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more-likely-than-not. In order to make this determination, the Company evaluates a number of factors including the ability to generate future taxable income from reversing taxable temporary differences, forecasts of financial and taxable income or loss, and the ability to carryback certain operating losses to refund taxes paid in prior years. The cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended March 31,June 30, 2022 constituted significant negative objective evidence against the Company’s ability to realize a benefit from its federal deferred tax assets. Such objective evidence limited the ability of the Company to consider in its evaluation certain subjective evidence such as the Company’s projections for future growth. On the basis of its evaluation, the Company determined that its deferred tax assets were not more-likely-than-not to be realized and that a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets should continue to be maintained as of March 31,June 30, 2022.
The Company’s current effective income tax rate that has been applied to normal, recurring operations for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2022, after discrete items, was (1.1)(0.7)%.
As of both March 31,June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any gross unrecognized tax benefits. Although the Company believes the tax accruals provided are reasonable, the final determination of tax returns under review or returns that may be reviewed in the future and any related litigation could result in tax liabilities that materially differ from the Company’s historical income tax provisions and accruals.
The Company has analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. The 2017 tax year areand forward are open to examination for federal income tax purposes, and the 2015 tax year and forward are open to examination for state income tax purposes.

13. Regulatory
The Company is subject to extensive regulation by federal and state governmental agencies and accrediting bodies. In particular, the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (“Higher Education Act”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Department of Education (“Department”) subject the Company and its university partners to significant regulatory scrutiny on the basis of numerous standards that institutions of higher education must satisfy in order to participate in the various federal student financial aid programs under Title IV of the Higher Education Act (“Title IV programs”). After

Department of Education On-Site Program Review of former Ashford University
In December 2016, the Department informed the University that it intended to continue the on-site program review, which commenced in January 2017 and initially covered the 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 award years, but may be expanded if the Department deems such expansion appropriate. To date, the Company has not received a draft report from the Department.

Department of Education Close Out Audit of University of the Rockies
During the fiscal year 2018, the Company recorded an expense of $1.5 million, in relation to the close out audit of University of the Rockies resulting from its merger with the University in October 2018.

Determination letter for the University of the Rockies. This letter confirmed that with the exception of the borrower defense to repayment regulations, none of the other audit findings resulted in financial liability. The Department also stated that additional liabilities could accrue in the future. On December 19, 2019, the Company filed an administrative appeal with the Department appealing the alleged liability on the basis that the University of Rockies did not close but rather merged with the University. The briefing on the appeal is complete and the Company is awaiting a decision by the administrative law judge.
WSCUC Accreditation of Global Campus (formerly Ashford University)
Global Campus is regionally accredited by WASC Senior College and University Commission (“WSCUC”). In June 2019, WSCUC acted to reaffirm accreditation through Spring 2025.
In November 2020, WSCUC approved the change of control application filed to complete the Sale Transaction,Original Asset Purchase Agreement, subject to certain conditions. WSCUC notified Global Campus that the provisions of the Notice of Concern issued as part of the reaffirmation of the University in July 2019 also remain in effect.
Department of Education Regulation
On December 1, 2020, the parties to the Purchase Agreement entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Purchase Agreement (“Amendment”) pursuant to which, among other things, the University of Arizona and Global Campus waived the closing condition regarding issuance of a pre-acquisition review notice by the Department of Education. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, as amended, the Closing was subject to customary closing conditions for transactions in this sector. The Department iswas expected to conduct a post-closing review of Global Campus, following the Sale Transaction, consistent with the Department’s procedures during which the Department makes a determination on the institution’s request for recertification from the Department following the change of control, including whether to impose or place other conditions or restrictions. To be eligible to participate in Title IV programs, an institution must comply with the Higher Education Act and the regulations thereunder that are administered by the Department.
On July 1, 2022, the Department notified the Company that as a result of the Statement of Decisions issued in the California Attorney General matter as described below in Note 14, “Commitments and Contingencies,” the Department was conducting a preliminary review of the Company’s participation in Title IV Higher Education Act programs and requested various documents and information from the Company. The Company is evaluating the request and cooperating with the Department.
Borrowers Defense to Repayment
On October 28, 2016, the Department published borrower defense to repayment regulations to change processes that assist students in gaining relief under certain provisions of the Direct Loan Program regulations. These defense to repayment regulations allow a borrower to assert a defense to repayment on the basis of a substantial misrepresentation, any other misrepresentation in cases where certain other factors are present, a breach of contract or a favorable nondefault contested judgment against a school for its act or omission relating to the making of the borrower’s loan or the provision of educational services for which the loan was provided. In addition, the financial responsibility standards contained in the new regulations establish the conditions or events that trigger the requirement for an institution to provide the Department with financial protection in the form of a letter of credit or other security against potential institutional liabilities. Triggering conditions or events include, among others, certain state, federal or accrediting agency actions or investigations, and in the case of publicly traded companies, receipt of certain warnings from the SEC or the applicable stock exchange, or the failure to timely file a required annual or quarterly report with the SEC. The new regulations also prohibit schools from requiring that students agree to settle future disputes through arbitration.
On March 15, 2019, the Department issued guidance for the implementation of parts of the regulations. The guidance covers an institution’s responsibility in regard to reporting mandatory and discretionary triggers as part of the financial responsibility standards, class action bans and pre-dispute arbitration agreements, submission of arbitral and judicial records, and repayment rates.
On August 30, 2019, the Department finalized the regulations derived from the 2017-2018 negotiated rulemaking process and subsequent public comments. This version of the borrower defense regulations applies to all federal student loans made on

against institutions, regardless of whether the loan is in default or in collection proceedings; allows borrowers to file defense to repayment claims three years from either the student’s date of graduation or withdrawal from the institution; and gives students the ability to allege a specific amount of financial harm and to obtain relief in an amount determined by the Department, which may be greater or lesser than their original claim amount. It also includes financial triggers and other factors for recalculating an institution’s financial responsibility composite score that differ from those in the 2016 regulations.
On March 18, 2021, the Department announced it would adopt a streamlined approach for granting full debt relief to borrowers reversing the methodology first announced in December 2019 that allowed for partial student loan cancellation for borrowers. The Department determined that the previous methodology did not result in an appropriate relief determination.
In July 2020, the Department notified the Company that they would be initiating a preliminary review of borrower defense applications from borrowers who made claims regarding the University. As part of the initial fact-finding process, the Department will send individual student claims to the University and allow the institution the opportunity to submit a response to the borrower’s allegations. In 2020, the Company received and timely responded to the submitted claims and cannot predict the outcome of the Department’s review at this time. In 2022, Global Campus also received additional borrower defense applications from borrowers. Global Campus is responding to these additional submitted claims and we cannot predict the outcome of the Department's review at this time.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
From time to time, the Company is a party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. When the Company becomes aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. In accordance with GAAP, the Company records loss contingencies in its financial statements only for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Where a range of loss can be reasonably estimated, the best estimate within that range should be accrued. If no estimate is better than another, the Company records the minimum estimated liability in the range. If the loss is not probable or the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the nature of the specific claim if the likelihood of a potential loss is reasonably possible and the amount involved could be material. The Company continuously assesses the potential liability related to the Company’s pending litigation and revises its estimates when additional information becomes available. Other than the specific liabilities assumed by Global Campus, the Company and AU LLC will generally remain responsible for liabilities of the University relating to periods prior to the closing of the Sale Transaction. Below is a list of material legal proceedings to which the Company or its subsidiaries is a party.
California Attorney General Investigation of For-Profit Educational Institutions
In January 2013, the Company received from the Attorney General of the State of California (“CA Attorney General”) an Investigative Subpoena relating to the CA Attorney General’s investigation of for-profit educational institutions. Pursuant to the Investigative Subpoena, the CA Attorney General requested documents and detailed information for the time period March 1, 2009 to the date of the Investigative Subpoena. On July 24, 2013, the CA Attorney General filed a petition to enforce certain categories of the Investigative Subpoena related to recorded calls and electronic marketing data. On September 25, 2013, the Company reached an agreement with the CA Attorney General to produce certain categories of the documents requested in the petition and stipulated to continue the hearing on the petition to enforce from October 3, 2013 to January 9, 2014. On January 13, 2014 and June 19, 2014, the Company received additional Investigative Subpoenas from the CA Attorney General, each requesting additional documents and information for the time period March 1, 2009 through each such date.
Representatives from the Company met with representatives from the CA Attorney General’s office on several occasions to discuss the status of the investigation, additional information requests, and specific concerns related to possible unfair business practices in connection with the Company’s recruitment of students and debt collection practices. The parties also discussed a potential resolution involving injunctive relief, other non-monetary remedies and a payment to the CA Attorney General and in the third quarter of 2016, the Company recorded an expense of $8.0 million related to the cost of resolving this matter.

The parties did not reach a resolution and on November 29, 2017, the CA Attorney General filed suit against the Company. The Company vigorously defended this case and emphatically denies the allegations made by the CA Attorney General that it ever deliberately misled its students, falsely advertised its programs, or in any way were not fully accurate in its statements to investors. A trial took place from November 2021 through December 2021.

On March 7, 2022, the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Diego (the “Court”), issued a Statement of Decision regarding the Lawsuit in favor of the CA Attorney General. In the Statement of Decision, the Court ordered the Company to pay $22.4 million in statutory penalties. As a result, the Company accrued an additional $14.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, and thefor a total of $22.4 million remains accrued as of MarchDecember 31, 2022.2021. The Court denied the CA Attorney General’s demands for restitution and injunctive relief finding no evidence postdating 2017 that would necessitate an injunction. The Company is disappointed by the Court’s decision and believes that its practices were at all times in compliance with California law. The Company is currently considering all options available to it related to the Statement of Decision. On April 7,June 10, 2022, the Company filed a motion fornotice of appeal on the Statement of Decision. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company paid $23.3 million, which included the full amount of the judgment as well as applicable costs and accrued interest.

15. Segment Information
The Company operates in 2 reportable segments: University Partners and Zovio Growth. The Company reports segment information based upon the management approach, and how the chief operating decision maker views the operations. The
Until the sale of TutorMe, the Company hashad three operating segments: Fullstack, TutorMe, and Zovio, and two2 reportable segments: University Partners and Zovio Growth.

Overview
Zovio Inc is an education technology services company that partners with higher education institutions and employers to deliver innovative, personalized solutions and learning experiences to help learners and leaders achieve their aspirations and help institutions grow. Zovio’s expertise across academic disciplines, credential levels, learning experiences, and modalities has powered student and partner success through a tailored, customer-focused approach bolstered by data analytics. The Company provides student recruitment and enrollment systems, retention strategies, educational tools and curriculums.
In April 2019, the Company acquired both Fullstack Academy, Inc (“Fullstack”) and TutorMe.com, Inc. (“TutorMe”), each of which became wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. Fullstack is an innovative web development school offering immersive technology bootcamps, and TutorMe is an online education platform that provides 24/7 on-demand tutoring and online courses.
On May 23, 2022, the Company completed the sale of TutorMe through an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company and TutorMe sold substantially all of the assets of TutorMe’s business in consideration of $55.0 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities of TutorMe’s business. The consideration payable pursuant to the Purchase Agreement is subject to a customary post-closing working capital adjustment.
On July 31, 2022, the Company entered into a new asset purchase agreement (the “New Asset Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Zovio sold to Global Campus all of the remaining assets of Zovio related to the UAGC Services Business (the “Transaction”). In connection with the Transaction, the parties terminated the previous agreements. In addition, UAGC (a) paid to Zovio cash in the amount of $1.00, (b) assumed all obligations under Zovio’s business contracts associated with the UAGC Services Businesses, including the lease for the facilities located in Chandler, Arizona, which has a remaining term of eight years and approximately $20.0 million in rent obligations, (c) released Zovio from all remaining obligations under the UAGC/Zovio Agreements, including from all indemnification obligations under the Original Asset Purchase Agreement and all minimum payment guarantees under the UAGC Services Agreement, and (d) granted Zovio a general release of all claims. In addition, UAGC hired substantially all of the UAGC Services Business employees (as determined by UAGC). In turn, Zovio (i) paid to UAGC cash in the amount of $5.5 million, reflecting the allocated minimum payment owed by Zovio to UAGC for the month of July 2022, (ii) paid to UAGC cash in the amount of $5.0 million, and assigned to UAGC the right to a security deposit in the amount of $2.7 million, for assumption of Zovio’s obligations under the Chandler lease, (iii) granted UAGC the right to any refund achieved by Zovio after the closing of the Transaction from the State of California as a result of its appeal of that certain judgment set forth in the Statement of Decision issued by the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Diego on March 3, 2022, (iv) released UAGC from all remaining obligations under the UAGC/Zovio Agreements, and (v) granted UAGC and University of Arizona a general release of all claims.
Following the consummation of the Transaction, Zovio and UAGC have no contractual or other relationship with one another, other than an agreement to reasonably cooperate to effect the transactions contemplated by the New Asset Purchase Agreement. As of the date hereof, UAGC operates the University as an integrated, online university. Zovio will continue to support the continued growth and expansion of its Fullstack Academy subsidiary and simultaneously explore strategic alternatives for that business. For additional information, see Note 16, “Subsequent Events.”
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company generating cash from its operations and availability to other funding sources. Due to the Company’s negative cash flows from operations and projected future negative cash flows from operations resulting from the transaction with Global Campus and reduction of availability of
25


debt financing, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months following the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. Management plans to cover any shortfall from operations by selling its Fullstack subsidiary or obtaining debt financing. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in these efforts.
Key Financial Metrics
In evaluating our operating performance, our management focuses in large part on our revenue and operating income (loss). The following table, which should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report, presents our key operating data for each of the periods presented (in thousands):

Revenue and other revenue
Revenue is primarily derived from our service agreement with our university partners. On December 1, 2020, the Company entered into the Services Agreement with Global Campus whereby the Company provides certain educational technology and support services, which has an initial term of fifteen years and seven months, subject to renewal options and certain early termination provisions. The amounts earned from the Services Agreement are denoted as revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). On December 1, 2020, the Company also entered into a transition services agreement with Global Campus whereby the Company will provide certain temporary transition services (the “Transition Services Agreement”), which has a term of three years. The amounts earned from the Transition Services Agreement are denoted as other revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).

This also includes costs to provide support for curriculum and new program development, support for faculty training and development and technical support. This expense category includes salaries, benefits and share-based compensation, information technology costs, curriculum and new program development costs (which are expensed as incurred), provision for bad debt and other costs associated with these support services. This category also includes an allocation of depreciation, amortization, rent, and occupancy costs attributable to the provision of these services.
Counseling services and support costs consist primarily of costs including team-based counseling and other support to prospective and current students as well as financial aid processing. This expense category includes salaries, benefits and share-based compensation, and other costs such as dues, fees and subscriptions and travel costs. This category also includes an allocation of depreciation, amortization, rent, and occupancy costs attributable to the provision of these services.
Marketing and communication costs consist primarily of lead acquisition, digital communication strategies, brand identity advertising, media planning and strategy, video, data science and analysis, marketing to potential students and other promotional and communication services. This category was primarily from our historical captions of advertising and marketing and promotional. This expense category includes salaries, benefits and share-based compensation for marketing and communication personnel, brand advertising, marketing leads and other promotional and communication expenses. This category also includes an allocation of depreciation, amortization, rent, and occupancy costs attributable to the provision of these services. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Legal expense is comprised of charges related to the estimated amounts to resolve the previously disclosed investigation for the California Attorney General.
Restructuring and impairment expenses in the current year are comprised of impairments of long-lived assets due to the transfer of assets to Global Campus with the July 31, 2022 Transaction. In the prior year, these charges are primarily comprised of severance costs related to headcount reductions made in connection with restructuring plans.
Gain on transactions, net amount represents the gain on the sale of TutorMe in May 2022, partially offset by the loss on transaction for the write-off of the net asset adjustment due from Global Campus.
Factors Affecting Comparability
We believe the following factors have had, or can be expected to have, a significant effect on the comparability of recent or future results of operations:
Seasonality
Our operations are generally subject to seasonal trends. Our university partners generally experience higher new enrollments during the first quarter of each year, following a holiday break, as well as during the third quarter each year, when most other colleges and universities begin their fall semesters. While our university partners enroll students throughout the year, fourth quarter revenue is generally lower than other quarters due to the holiday break in December, with a relative increase in the first quarter of each year.
Trends and uncertainties regarding continuing operations
Valuation allowance
We recognize deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more-likely-than-not. In order to make this determination, we evaluate factors including the ability to generate future taxable income from reversing taxable temporary differences, forecasts of financial and taxable income or loss. The cumulative loss incurred over the three-year period ended March 31,June 30, 2022 constituted significant negative objective evidence against our ability to realize a benefit from our federal deferred tax assets. Such objective evidence limited our ability to consider in our evaluation other subjective evidence such as our projections for future growth. Based on our evaluation, we determined that our deferred tax assets were not more-likely-than-not to be realized and that a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets should continue to be maintained as of March 31,June 30, 2022.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” included in Part II, Item 7 of the Form 10-K.

There were no material changes to these critical accounting policies and estimates during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2022.

The decrease in revenue in the University Partners segment of $36.8 million between periods was primarily due to the related decrease in service revenue due to a decrease in average weekly enrollment for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, as compared to the same period ended June 30, 2022. A component of the University Partners segment revenue includes the other revenue generated from the Transition Services Agreement of approximately $3.7 million.
The increase in revenue in the Zovio Growth segment between periods was primarily due to the growth in customer contracts within the Fullstack Academy subsidiary, as well as within the TutorMe subsidiary until its sale in May 2022.

Restructuring and impairment expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a charge of $35.9 million to restructuring and impairment expense. This related to the Company’s long-lived assets due to the transfer of assets to Global Campus with the July 31, 2022 transaction. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded a charge of $2.3 million to restructuring and impairment expense.
Gain on transactions, net. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a net gain on the sale transactions of $45.7 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We finance our operating activities and capital expenditures primarily through cash on hand. At March 31,June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our cash and cash equivalents were $33.7$20.8 million and $28.3 million, respectively. At March 31,June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, total restricted cash was $6.1 million and $9.3 million, respectively, and investments were $0.9$0.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively. At March 31,June 30, 2022, we had $2.8 million of long-term notes payable.
There was a slight decrease in the fair value of our investments at March 31,June 30, 2022 as compared to December 31, 2021, which is primarily due to distributions. We believe that any remaining fluctuations we have experienced are temporary in nature and, while our securities are classified as available-for-sale, we have the ability and intent to hold them until maturity, if necessary, to recover their full value.
In MarchDuring the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company received a court ordersold its TutorMe subsidiary for $55.0 million (see Note 1, “Nature of Business”) and used the proceeds to pay down its debt with Blue Torch Finance, LLC in the aggregate principal amount of $31.5 million (see Note 8, “Credit Facilities”), as well as to pay the $22.4 million in statutory penalties relating tofor the final judgement in the California Attorney General’s lawsuit.General lawsuit (see Note 14, “Commitments and Contingencies”).
Going Concern
The Company had negative cash flows from operations of $15.4 million for the fiscal year 2021, and negative cash flows from operations of $57.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Up through July 31, 2022, the majority of our cash came from our Services Agreement with Global Campus. Global Campus, derives the majority of its respective cash revenues from students who enroll and are eligible for various federal student financial assistance programs authorized under Title IV of the Higher Education Act. An institution is subject to significant regulatory scrutiny as a result of numerous standards that must be satisfied in order to participate in Title IV programs. The balance of revenues derived by Global Campus is from government tuition assistance programs for military personnel, including veterans, payments made in cash by individuals, reimbursement from corporate partnerships and private loans from third parties.
The service fees in the Services Agreement are subject to certain minimum residual liability adjustments, including performance-based adjustments, minimum profit level adjustments, and excess direct cost adjustments. These adjustments are all variable in nature in that they depend upon the Company’s performance during each service period. In connection with the Services Agreement, the minimum residual payment was to be paid annually in June.
The Company’s Services Agreement with Global Campus was subject to certain adjustments that impacted the amount and timing of cash flows, which payment terms were modified in April 2022 for the months of July, August and September 2022. Further, Global Campus incurred higher costs in their fourth quarter (the Company's second quarter) than the Company previously budgeted. On or about June 15, 2022, Global Campus advised the Company that Global Campus received a notice from the Department of Defense that they were placed on probation which would preclude them from enrolling new military students, pending completion of a comprehensive review. Additionally, there were communications from the Department of Defense to current Global Campus students cautioning them to consider leaving the University. We are currently considering all options availablewere advised by Global Campus that this matter should be resolved in a timely manner, however, it became apparent over the following weeks that these prolonged actions were having a negative impact on the University's revenue and have filedtherefore a motion fornegative impact on the Company's financial outlook. As a result, the Company entered into a new trialagreement with Global Campus, effective on July 31, 2022, which allowed Global Campus to acquire the business previously used to provide services to Global Campus. For additional information, see Note 16, “Subsequent Events.” The Company will continue to support the continued growth and expansion of its Fullstack subsidiary and simultaneously explore strategic alternatives for that business.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Court’s decision. RegardlessCompany generating cash from its operations and availability to other funding sources. Due to the Company’s negative cash flows from operations and projected future negative cash flows from operations resulting from the transaction with Global Campus and reduction of availability of debt financing, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months following the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. Management plans to cover any shortfall from operations by selling its Fullstack subsidiary or obtaining debt financing. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in these efforts.
31


The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $57.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $16.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an overall increase between periods in net cash used in operating activities of $40.9 million. The increase in cash used in operating activities is primarily attributable to the net increases in the working capital accounts, including the payment of the ultimate outcome,judgement in the California Attorney General lawsuit and the minimum residual adjustment, partially offset by the increase in net income of $1.4 million between periods.
Investing activities
Net cash provided by investing activities was $49.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The amount of cash provided was primarily due to the sale of the TutorMe subsidiary in May 2022. This was partially offset by distributions of deferred compensation and capital expenditures. Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $24 thousand, compared to $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we capitalized costs for intangibles of $0.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively. We anticipate our capital expenditures to be an immaterial amount for the year ending December 31, 2022.
Financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 included both the borrowings and repayment of the credit facility with Blue Torch Capital. See “Debt and Financing Arrangements” below. During each of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, net cash used included tax withholding related to the issuance of restricted stock units vesting.
Debt and Financing Arrangements
As of June 30, 2022, the Company has a notes payable valued at $2.8 million, including accrued interest. The counterparty advanced funds to the Company for certain program development costs, which the Company is obligated to repay out of future revenues from the developed program. The Company recognized these advances as a debt obligation, and expects to begin repayments from future program revenues four years from the contract start date.
The Company has issued letters of credit that are collateralized with cash, in the aggregate amount of $6.0 million as of June 30, 2022. The letters of credit relate primarily to the Company's leased facilities and insurance requirements. The collateralized cash is held in restricted cash on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company is required to provide surety bonds in certain states in which it does business. As a result, the Company had previously entered into a surety bond facility with an insurance company to provide such bonds when required. Although there are no remaining bonds on the Company’s behalf under this decision could have a material impact on our future cash flow.facility as of June 30, 2022, the Company still holds certain liability associated with any required collateral.
On April 14, 2022, the Company entered into a Financing Agreement (the “Credit Facility”) among the Company, as borrower, each of its wholly-owned subsidiaries as subsidiary guarantors (the “Guarantors”), the lenders party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”) and Blue Torch Finance LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the Lenders (the “Agent”). The Credit Facility providesprovided for among other things, a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $31.5 million (the “Term Loan”). The proceedsConcurrent with the sale of TutorMe, the Company repaid in full all outstanding obligations of the Term Loan will be used (i)Company owed to satisfy any final judgementBlue Torch Finance, LLC and the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Facility. In connection with the Company’s repayment of the outstanding obligations under the Credit Facility, Blue Torch terminated the Credit Facility and released all of its security interests in and liens on all of the California Attorney General lawsuit and (ii) to fund the working capitalassets of the Company and the Guarantors.its subsidiaries. For further information, see Note 8, “Credit Facilities,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements.
2632


Based on our current level of operations, recent cost reductions throughout the organization, and the recently acquired Credit Facility, we believe that our future cash flows from operating activities and our existing cash and cash equivalents will provide adequate funds for ongoing operations, minimum residual payments, planned capital expenditures and working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, changes could occur that would consume our available capital resources before that time. Our capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including our ability to continue to generate revenue. If additional funding is needed, there can be no assurance that the additional funding will be available to us on favorable terms, if at all.
We manage our cash pursuant to the quantitative and qualitative operational guidelines of our cash investment policy. Our cash investment policy, which is managed by our Chief Financial Officer, has the following primary objectives: (i) preserving principal, (ii) meeting our liquidity needs, (iii) minimizing market and credit risk, and (iv) providing after-tax returns. Under the policy’s guidelines, we invest our excess cash exclusively in high-quality, U.S. dollar-denominated financial instruments. For a discussion of the measures we use to mitigate the exposure of our cash investments to market risk, credit risk and interest rate risk, see Part I, Item 3, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in this Form 10-Q.
Operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, an overall increase between periods in net cash provided by operating activities of $1.8 million. The increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily attributable to the net increases in the working capital accounts, as well as the decrease in net loss of $2.1 million between periods, partially offset by the decreases in non-cash expenses.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $24 thousand, compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, we capitalized costs for intangibles of $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. We anticipate our capital expenditures to be approximately $1.8 million for the year ending December 31, 2022.
Financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. During each of the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, net cash used included tax withholdings related to the issuance of restricted stock units vesting.
Agreements with Global Campus
Our largest university partner, Global Campus, derives the majority of its respective cash revenues from students who enroll and are eligible for various federal student financial assistance programs authorized under Title IV of the Higher Education Act. An institution is subject to significant regulatory scrutiny as a result of numerous standards that must be satisfied in order to participate in Title IV programs. For additional information regarding Title IV programs and the regulation thereof, see “Business—Regulation” included in Part I, Item 1 of the Form 10-K. The balance of revenues derived by Global Campus is from government tuition assistance programs for military personnel, including veterans, payments made in cash by individuals, reimbursement from corporate partnerships and private loans from third parties.
The majority of our cash comes from our Services Agreement with Global Campus. The service fees in the Services Agreement are subject to certain minimum residual liability adjustments, including performance-based adjustments, minimum profit level adjustments, and excess direct cost adjustments. These adjustments are all variable in nature in that they depend upon the Company’s performance during each service period. In connection with the Services Agreement, the minimum residual payment will be paid annually in June. On April 11, 2022, the Company and Global Campus modified the payment terms from monthly to bi-monthly for the months of July, August and September 2022.
27


Debt and Financing Arrangements
As of March 31, 2022, the Company has a notes payable valued at $2.8 million, including accrued interest. The counterparty advanced funds to the Company for certain program development costs, which the Company is obligated to repay out of future revenues from the developed program. The Company recognized these advances as a debt obligation, and expects to begin repayments from future program revenues four years from the contract start date.
The Company has issued letters of credit that are collateralized with cash, in the aggregate amount of $6.0 million as of March 31, 2022. The letters of credit relate primarily to the Company's leased facilities and insurance requirements. The collateralized cash is held in restricted cash on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company is required to provide surety bonds in certain states in which it does business. As a result, the Company had previously entered into a surety bond facility with an insurance company to provide such bonds when required. Although there are no remaining bonds on the Company’s behalf under this facility as of March 31, 2022, the Company still holds certain liability associated with any required collateral.
Subsequent to the quarter end, on April 14, 2022, the Company entered into a Financing Agreement (the “Credit Facility”) among the Company, as borrower, each of its wholly-owned subsidiaries as subsidiary guarantors (the “Guarantors”), the lenders party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”) and Blue Torch Finance LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the Lenders (the “Agent”). The Credit Facility provides for, among other things, a term loan in the aggregate principal amount of $31.5 million (the “Term Loan”). For further information, see Note 8, “Credit Facilities,” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements.
Future Contractual Obligations
As of March 31,June 30, 2022, we have future contractual obligations relating to operating lease obligations in the amount of $51.9$50.6 million, of which approximately $5.3$3.5 million is payable during the remainder of 2022.
We also have contractual obligations in the amount of $10.2$11.2 million, of which $4.3$1.6 million is payable during the remainder of 2022. These obligations include agreements with vendors in the areas of software, facilities, telephony, licensing fees, consulting, marketing, among others.
In connection with the Transaction that was entered into with UAGC on July 31, 2022, the Company will be relieved liabilities associated with that transaction as of that date.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For information regarding recent accounting pronouncements, refer to Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market and Credit Risk
Pursuant to our cash investment policy, we attempt to mitigate the exposure of our cash and investments to market and credit risk by (i) diversifying concentration to ensure we are not overly concentrated in a limited number of financial institutions, (ii) monitoring and managing the risks associated with the national banking and credit markets, (iii) investing in U.S. dollar-denominated assets and instruments only, (iv) diversifying account structures so that we maintain a decentralized account portfolio with numerous stable, highly rated and liquid financial institutions and (v) ensuring that our investment procedures maintain a defined and specific scope such that we will not invest in higher-risk investment accounts, including financial swaps or derivative and corporate equities. Accordingly, pursuant to the guidelines established by our cash investment policy, we invest our excess cash exclusively in high-quality, U.S. dollar-denominated financial instruments.
Despite the investment risk mitigation strategies we employ, we may incur investment losses as a result of unusual and unpredictable market developments, and we may experience reduced investment earnings if the yields on investments that are deemed to be low risk remain low or decline further in this time of economic uncertainty. Unusual and unpredictable market developments may also create liquidity challenges for certain of the assets in our investment portfolio.
We have no derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments.
28


Interest Rate Risk
To the extent we borrow funds, we would be subject to fluctuations in interest rates. As of March 31,June 30, 2022, as well aswe had $2.8 million in long-term notes payable.
As noted above, subsequent to the quarter end, onOn April 14, 2022, the Company entered into a Credit Facility which providesprovided for among other things, a Term Loan in the aggregate principal amount of $31.5 million and bears interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 9.0%, payable monthly. Concurrent with the sale of TutorMe, the Company repaid in full all outstanding obligations of the Company owed to Blue Torch Finance, LLC and the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Facility. In connection with the Company’s repayment of the outstanding obligations under the Credit Facility, Blue Torch terminated the Credit Facility and released all of its security interests in and liens on all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.
33


Our future investment income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates. At March 31,June 30, 2022, a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in interest rates would not have a material impact on our future earnings, fair value or cash flows related to interest earned on our cash, cash equivalents or investments.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.  Legal Proceedings
For information regarding our legal proceedings, refer to Note 14, “Commitments and Contingencies” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report, which note is incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1.
Item 1A.  Risk Factors
Investing in our common stock involves risk. Before making an investment in our common stock, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of the Form 10-K. The risks described in the Form 10-K are those which we believe are the material risks we face, and such risks could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may impact us. ThereOther than those noted below, here have been no material changes in our risk factors from those previously disclosed in the Form 10-K.
We may need additional capital which may not be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all, which raises questions about our ability to continue as a going concern.
As of June 30, 2022, we had combined cash and cash equivalents of $20.8 million, compared with combined cash and cash equivalents of $28.3 million as of December 31, 2021. We had negative cash flows from operations of $15.4 million for the fiscal year 2021, and negative cash flows from operations of $57.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Further, Global Campus incurred higher costs in their fourth quarter (the Company's second quarter) than the Company previously budgeted. On or about June 15, 2022, Global Campus advised the Company that Global Campus received a notice from the Department of Defense that they were placed on probation which would preclude them from enrolling new military students, pending completion of a comprehensive review. Additionally, there were communications from the Department of Defense to current Global Campus students cautioning them to consider leaving the University. We were advised by Global Campus that this matter should be resolved in a timely manner, however, it became apparent over the following weeks that these prolonged actions were having a negative impact on the University's revenue and therefore a negative impact on the Company's financial outlook. As a result, the Company entered into a new agreement with Global Campus, effective on July 31, 2022, which allowed Global Campus to acquire the business previously used to provide services to Global Campus. For additional information, see Note 16 “Subsequent Events.”
We will continue to support the continued growth and expansion of its Fullstack subsidiary and simultaneously explore strategic alternatives for that business. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on us generating cash from operations and availability to other funding sources. Due to our negative cash flows from operations and projected future negative cash flows from operations resulting from the July 31, 2022 transaction with Global Campus and reduction of availability of debt financing, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months following the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. Management plans to cover any shortfall from operations by selling its Fullstack subsidiary or obtaining debt financing. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in these efforts.
