The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Waitr Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation, together with its ~~wholly-owned~~wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company,” “Waitr,” “we,” “us” and “our”), operates an online ~~food~~ ordering technology platform, providing delivery, carryout and dine-in options, connecting restaurants, drivers and diners in cities across the United States. ~~In January 2019,~~The Company’s technology platform includes the Waitr ~~acquired BiteSquad.com, LLC (“~~and Bite ~~Squad”), which also operates an online food ordering platform. The Company connects diners~~Squad mobile applications, and ~~restaurants via Waitr’s website and~~more recently, the Delivery Dudes mobile application, ~~(the “Waitr Platform”) and Bite Squad’s website and mobile application (the “Bite Squad Platform” and together with~~collectively referred to as the ~~Waitr Platform, the~~ “Platforms”). The ~~Company’s~~ Platforms allow consumers to browse local restaurants and menus, track order and delivery status, and securely store previous orders for ease of use and convenience. Restaurants benefit from the online Platforms through increased exposure to consumers for expanded business in the delivery market and carryout sales.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as they apply to interim financial information. Accordingly, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make information not misleading. References to the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) included hereafter refer to the ASC and ASUs established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) as the source of authoritative GAAP.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019~~2020 (the ~~“2019~~“2020 Form 10-K”). The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but in the Company’s opinion, include all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or the fiscal year.

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company identified and corrected an immaterial error related to the understatement of an accrued medical contingency that affected previously issued consolidated financial statements. In order to present the impact of the updated estimated liability for the claim, previously issued financial statements have been revised. See Note 9 – Correction of Prior Period Error for additional details, including a summary of the revisions to certain previously reported financial information presented herein for comparative purposes.

Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all ~~wholly-owned~~wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates and judgments relied upon in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements affect the following items:

The Company regularly assesses these estimates and records changes to estimates in the period in which they become known. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.

The Company sustained losses from its inception through the first quarter of 2020 and experienced declines in working capital through 2019, resulting from changes in market conditions in the online food ordering and delivery industry, particularly increased competition from other national delivery service providers. In addition, the Company invested heavily in sales and marketing efforts in 2019, further reducing its working capital and liquidity, until the suspension of such efforts in the fourth quarter of 2019. In 2020, the Company has deployed capital in a more strategic and conservative manner than in the prior years.

Management implemented several initiatives from late fiscal 2019 into 2020, with a focus on improving revenue per order, cash flow, profitability and liquidity. These initiatives, which included reductions of staff in November 2019 and January 2020, modifications to the Company’s fee structure, the closures of approximately 60 unprofitable, non-core markets in December 2019 and January 2020, and the switch to an independent contractor model for delivery drivers, have resulted in the positive results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. Additionally, in March and May 2020, the Company entered into open market sale agreements with respect to at-the-market offering programs, pursuant to which the Company sold 23,698,720 shares of common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 for net proceeds of approximately $47,574 (see ~~Note 12 – Stockholders’ Equity). As of September 30, 2020, cash on hand was $77,136.~~

~~The Company’s working capital and liquid asset (cash on hand) positions as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are as follows (in thousands):~~

We currently expect that our cash on hand and estimated cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs beyond twelve months; however, there can be no assurance that we will generate cash flow at the levels we anticipate. We continually evaluate additional opportunities to strengthen our liquidity position, fund growth initiatives and/or combine with other businesses by issuing equity or equity-linked securities (in public or private offerings) and/or incurring additional debt.

In December 2019, an outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) began in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. The potential impacts and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and on the Company’s business, in particular, are uncertain and may be difficult to assess or predict. The pandemic has resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, which may reduce the Company’s ability to access capital and continue to operate effectively. The COVID-19 pandemic could also reduce the demand for the Company’s services, and a prolonged recession or additional financial market corrections resulting from the spread of COVID-19 could adversely affect demand for the Company’s services. Additionally, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, several jurisdictions have implemented or are considering implementing fee caps, fee disclosure requirements and similar measures that could negatively impact the Company’s financial results. To the extent that the COVID-19 pandemic adversely impacts the Company’s business, results of operations, liquidity or financial condition, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the risk factors in the Company’s 2019 Form 10-K.

Waitr has thus far been able to operate during the ~~COVID-19 pandemic. Restrictions on in-restaurant dining have resulted in restaurants utilizing delivery services and has had a positive impact on our business.~~pandemic caused by the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 (“COVID-19”). We have taken several steps to help protect and support our restaurant partners, diners, independent contractor drivers and our employees during the COVID-19 outbreak, including offering no-contact delivery in select markets, offering no-contact grocery delivery in select markets, working with certain restaurant partners to waive diner delivery fees, deploying free marketing programs for certain restaurants and providing masks, gloves and hand sanitizer to drivers. We continue to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 ~~global~~ outbreak, although there remains significant uncertainty related to the public health impact and the global economic ~~situation globally.~~

~~Except as set forth~~See “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” below ~~there has~~for a description of accounting principle changes adopted during the three months ended March 31, 2021 related to leases. There have been no other material ~~change~~changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates described in the ~~2019~~2020 Form 10-K. See “Revenue” below for a description of our revenue recognition policy.

The Company generates revenue (“~~transaction fees”~~Transaction Fees”) primarily when diners place an order on one of the Platforms. In the case of diner subscription fees for our unlimited delivery subscription program, revenue is recognized ~~when payment~~ for the receipt of the monthly ~~subscription is received.~~fee in the applicable month for which the delivery service applies to. Revenue consists of the following for the periods indicated (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,				Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020		2019		2020		2019		2021		2020
Transaction fees	$	52,618	$	46,400	$	156,851	$	143,595
Transaction Fees									$	50,476	$	43,811
Setup and integration fees		23		2,731		437		4,834		7		378
Other		93		70		195		146		447		54
Total Revenue	$	52,734	$	49,201	$	157,483	$	148,575	$	50,930	$	44,243

Transaction ~~fees~~Fees represent the revenue recognized from the Company’s obligation to process orders on the Platforms. The performance obligation is satisfied when the Company successfully processes an order placed on one of the Platforms and the restaurant receives the order at their location. The obligation to process orders on the Platforms represents a series of distinct performance obligations satisfied over time that the Company combines into a single performance obligation. Consistent with the recognition objective in ~~Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)~~ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the variable consideration due to the Company for processing orders is recognized on a daily basis. As an agent of the restaurant in the transaction, the Company recognizes ~~transaction fees~~Transaction Fees earned from the restaurant on the Platform on a net basis. Transaction ~~fees~~Fees also include a fee charged to the end user customer when they request the order be delivered to their location. Revenue is recognized for diner fees once the delivery service is completed. The contract period for substantially all restaurant contracts is one month as both the Company and the restaurant have the ability to unilaterally terminate the contract by providing notice of termination.

The Company records a receivable when it has an unconditional right to the consideration. The balance of accounts receivable, net was $3,925 and $3,272 as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, comprised primarily of credit card receivables due from the credit card processor. These receivables are generally collected in one to six days from the date revenue is generated.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2019,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company ~~received~~recognized revenue for non-refundable ~~upfront~~ setup and integration fees for onboarding certain restaurants. Setup and integration activities primarily represented administrative activities that allowed the Company to fulfill future performance obligations for these restaurants and did not represent services transferred to the restaurant. However, the non-refundable upfront setup and integration fees charged to restaurants resulted in a performance obligation in the form of a material right related to the restaurant’s option to renew the contract each day rather than provide a notice of termination. Revenue related to setup and integration fees was historically recognized ratably over a two-year period. In connection with modifications to the Company’s fee structure in July 2019, the Company discontinued offering fee arrangements with the upfront, one-time setup and integration fee.

The ~~contract modifications in July 2019 and the effect of such modifications on our measure of progress towards the performance obligations resulted in accelerated recognition of deferred revenue related~~Company records a receivable when it has an unconditional right to the ~~modified contracts. Included in revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2019 is a cumulative adjustment to setup~~consideration. The balance of accounts receivable, net was $4,907 and ~~integration fee revenue of $3,005, which was included in deferred revenue~~$2,954 as of ~~August 1, 2019. The cumulative adjustment to revenue was partially offset by write-offs~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, comprised primarily of uncollected setup and integration fees within accounts receivable of $797 and refunds of previously paid setup and integration fees of $320. Further, a portion of our capitalized contract costs pertaining to or allocable to terminated restaurant contracts was recognized incredit card receivables due from the ~~third quarter of 2019, resulting in an impairment loss of $852. The July 2019 contract modifications had no impact on revenue during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.~~credit card processor.

The Company recognizes an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a restaurant and recognizes the expense over the course of the period when the Company expects to recover those costs. The Company has determined that certain internal sales incentives earned at the time when an initial contract is executed meet these requirements. Capitalized sales incentives are amortized to sales and marketing expense on a straight-line basis over the period of ~~benefit.~~benefit, which the Company has determined to befive years. The Company applies a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less.

As a result of the changes in the terms of the contracts related to the modified fee structure introduced in July 2019, the Company changed its estimate of the useful life of the asset for costs to obtain a contract to better reflect the estimated period in which the asset will remain in service. Effective August 1, 2019, the estimated useful life of the asset for costs to obtain a contract from customers,

previously estimated at two years, was increased to five years. The change in estimate had no material impact on the Company’s results of operations for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Deferred costs related to obtaining contracts with restaurants were ~~$2,291~~$2,734 and ~~$701~~$2,424 as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively, out of which ~~$514~~$659 and ~~$143,~~$567, respectively, was classified as current. Amortization of expense for the costs to obtain a contract were ~~$117~~$149 and ~~$140~~$53 for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019, respectively, and $264 and $591 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019,~~ respectively.

The Company also recognizes an asset for the costs to fulfill a contract with a restaurant when they are specifically identifiable, generate or enhance resources used to satisfy future performance obligations, and are expected to be recovered. The Company has determined that certain costs related to setup and integration activities meet the capitalization criteria under ASC Topic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs. Costs related to these implementation activities are deferred and then amortized to operations and support expense on a straight-line basis over the period of ~~benefit.~~

~~As a result of the changes in the terms of the contracts related to the modified fee structure introduced in July 2019,~~benefit, which the Company ~~changed its estimate of the useful life of the asset for costs~~has determined to fulfill a contract to better reflect the estimated period in which the asset will remain in service. Effective August 1, 2019, the estimated useful life of the asset for costs to fulfill a contract from customers, previously estimated at two years, was increased tobe five years. ~~The change in estimate had no material impact on the Company’s results of operations for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2019.~~

Deferred costs related to fulfilling contracts with restaurants were ~~$572~~$893 and ~~$270~~$742 as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively, out of which ~~$129~~$209 and ~~$56,~~$170, respectively, was classified as current. Amortization of expense for the costs to fulfill a contract were ~~$28~~$45 and ~~$224~~$15 for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019, respectively, and $63 and $1,023 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019,~~ respectively.

The Company records stock-based compensation expense for stock-based compensation awards based on the fair value on the date of grant. The stock-based compensation expense is recognized in our statement of operations ratably over the course of the requisite service period and is recorded in either operations and support, sales and marketing, research and development, or general and administrative expense, depending on the department of the recipient. The Company recognizes forfeitures of stock-based awards as they occur. In the case of an award pursuant to which a performance condition must be met for the award to vest, no stock-based compensation cost is recognized until such time as the performance condition is considered probable of being met, if at all. If the assessment of probability of the performance condition changes, the impact of the change in estimate would be recognized in the period of change. Because of the non-cash nature of share-based compensation, it is added back to net income in arriving at net cash provided by operating activities in our statement of cash flows.

Under GAAP, certain instruments granted in stock-based payment transactions are considered participating securities prior to vesting and are therefore required to be included in the earnings allocation in calculating earnings per share under the two-class method. Companies are required to treat unvested stock-based payment awards with a right to receive non-forfeitable dividends as a separate class of securities in calculating earnings per share, except in cases where the effect of the inclusion of the participating securities would be antidilutive.

~~The Company records the fair value of assets and liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 820,~~ ~~Fair Value Measurement~~. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. Based on the guidance in ASC 820, the Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy, prioritizing and defining the types of inputs used to measure fair value depending on the degree to which they are observable. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels, which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The levels are as follows:

~~Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.~~

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

~~Level 3 — Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability at fair value.~~

Certain financial instruments are required to be recorded at fair value. Other financial instruments, including cash, are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value. Additionally, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

The Company maintains insurance coverage for business risks in customary amounts believed to be sufficient for our operations, including, but not limited to, workers’ compensation, auto and general liability. These plans contain various retention levels for which we provide accruals based on the aggregate of the liability for claims incurred and an estimate for claims incurred but not reported. We review our estimates of claims costs and adjust our estimates when appropriate.

~~Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”), in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”), to the FASB’s ASCs.~~

The Company considered the applicability and impact of all ASUs. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Throughout fiscal year 2020, the Company qualified as an “emerging growth company” pursuant to the provisions of the JOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, the Company ~~has~~ elected to use the extended transition period for complying with certain new or revised financial accounting standards provided pursuant to Section ~~13 (a)~~13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Effective January 1, 2021, the Company is no longer an emerging growth company.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The principal objective of ASU 2016-02 is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing “right-of-use” lease assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 continues to retain a distinction between finance and operating leases but requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms greater than twelve months. ASU 2016-02 was effective for and adopted by the Company on January 1, 2021. The Company applied the modified retrospective transition approach, with no adjustment to prior comparative periods. Accordingly, financial information is not adjusted and the disclosures required under ASU 2016-02 are not provided for periods prior to January 1, 2021.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of a contract. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company elected the optional practical expedient package, which includes retaining the current classification of leases, and is utilizing the practical expedient which allows the use of hindsight in determining the lease term and in assessing impairment of its operating lease right-of-use assets. Additionally, the Company has elected to treat lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all assets. The Company has elected to apply the short-term scope exception for leases with original terms of twelve months or less, and accordingly, recognizes the lease payments for such leases in the statement of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

Under ASU 2016-02, the Company recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2021, lease liabilities for operating leases entered into prior to December 31, 2020 of $4,993, representing the present value of its future operating lease payments, and corresponding right-of-use assets of $4,681, based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for deferred rent. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company generally uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date,

which is estimated to be 5.0%. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 did not result in a cumulative-effect adjustment on retained earnings. See Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies for additional details.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles for income taxes and also improves consistent application by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 was effective for and adopted by the Company on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company’s disclosures or consolidated financial statements.

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception. Part I of ASU 2017-11 addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. Down round features are features of certain equity-linked instruments (or embedded features) that result in the strike price being reduced based on the pricing of future equity offerings. Current accounting guidance creates cost and complexity for entities that issue financial instruments (such as warrants and convertible instruments) with down round features that require fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option. Part II of ASU 2017-11 addresses the difficulty of navigating ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, because of the existence of extensive pending content in ASC 480. This pending content is the result of the indefinite deferral of accounting requirements about mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities and certain mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests. Part II of ASU 2017-11 does not have an accounting effect. ASU 2017-11 was effective for and adopted by the Company on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2017-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s disclosures or consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology under current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 uses a forward-looking expected credit loss model for accounts receivables, loans, and other financial instruments and expands disclosure requirements. ASU 2016-13 was effective for and adopted by the Company on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s disclosures or consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt, resulting in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. The guidance also addresses how convertible instruments are accounted for in the diluted earnings per share calculation. ASU 2020-06 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim ~~period~~periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts of the provisions of ASU 2020-06 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

On March 11, 2021, the ~~FASB issued ASU 2019-12,~~ ~~Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying~~Company completed the ~~Accounting~~acquisition of certain assets and properties from Dude Holdings LLC (“Delivery Dudes”), a third-party delivery business primarily serving the South Florida market, for ~~Income Taxes~~, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles for income taxes and also improves consistent application by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2020. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted, with the amendments to be applied on a retrospective, modified retrospective or prospective basis, depending on the specific amendment. The Company will$11,500 in cash, subject to certain purchase price adjustments, and 3,562,577 shares of the ~~requirements~~Company’s common stock (the “Delivery Dudes Acquisition”). The share consideration was valued at $3.23 per share, representing the average volume weighted average price of ~~ASU 2019-12 on January 1,~~the Company’s common stock for the five consecutive trading days prior to March 9, 2021. The ~~Company is currently evaluating the impact that adopting this ASU will have on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.~~

~~In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13,~~ ~~Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)– Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement~~, which removes, modifies or adds disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities beginning after December 15, 2019, with amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and narrative description of measurement uncertainty requiring prospective adoption and all other amendments requiring retrospective adoption. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 on January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material ~~impact on~~acquisition expands the Company’s ~~disclosures or~~market presence in the ~~unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.~~on-demand delivery service sector. The following represents the preliminary estimated purchase consideration:

~~In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07,~~ ~~Compensation~~ – ~~Stock Compensation (Topic 718),~~ to simplify the accounting for share-based payments to non-employees by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments to employees, with certain exceptions. Under the new standard, equity-classified non-employee awards will be initially measured on the grant date and re-measured only upon modification, rather than at each reporting period. Measurement will be based on an estimate of the fair value of the equity instruments to be issued. ASU 2018-07 is effective for public business entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the standard is effective in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period for which financial statements have not been issued or made available for issuance but not before an entity adopts ASC 606. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2020. The Company’s adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

~~In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11,~~ Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception. Part I of ASU 2017-11 addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. Down round features are features of certain equity-linked instruments (or embedded features) that result in the strike price being reduced based on the pricing of future equity offerings. Current accounting guidance creates cost and complexity for entities that issue financial instruments (such as warrants and convertible instruments) with down round features that require fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option. Part II of ASU 2017-11 addresses the difficulty of navigating ASC Topic 480, ~~Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,~~ because of the existence of extensive pending content in ASC 480. This pending content is the result of the indefinite deferral of accounting requirements about mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities and certain mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests. Part II of ASU 2017-11 does not have an accounting effect. ASU 2017-11 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. As an emerging growth company, the Company will not be subject to the requirements of ASU 2017-11 until December 31, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adopting this ASU will have on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

~~In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13,~~ ~~Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,~~ to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology under current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates.

~~In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases (Topic 842).~~ The principal objective of ASU 2016-02 is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 continues to retain a distinction between finance and operating leases but requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms greater than twelve months. In June 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-05, which amends the effective date of ASU No. 2016-02 to give immediate relief to certain entities as a result of the widespread adverse economic effects and business disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company will no longer qualify as an emerging growth company on December 31, 2020, and as a result, the relief granted under ASU 2020-05 will not apply and ASU No. 2016-02 is now effective for the Company on January 1, 2021. The Company is currently analyzing ASU 2016-02, including reviewing the standard, gathering information on the Company’s leasing activities, and drafting accounting policies. We are currently unable to estimate the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements.

~~In January 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of Bite Squad (the “Bite Squad Merger”).~~ ~~Founded in 2012 and based in Minneapolis, Bite Squad operates an online food ordering platform, similar to Waitr’s Platform, through the Bite Squad Platform. Total merger consideration was $335,858,~~ ~~consisting of $197,404 paid in cash, the pay down of $11,880 of indebtedness of Bite Squad and an aggregate of 10,591,968 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $11.95 per share.~~

The ~~Bite Squad Merger~~Delivery Dudes Acquisition was considered a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, and was accounted for using the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method of accounting, ~~total merger consideration,~~ acquired assets and assumed liabilities are recorded based on their ~~estimated~~respective fair values on the acquisition date, with the excess of the ~~fair value of merger~~ consideration transferred in the acquisition over the fair value of the assets ~~less~~and liabilities acquired recorded as goodwill. The preliminary estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed consists of the following (in thousands):

The Company engaged a third-party specialist to assist management in estimating the fair value of the assets and liabilities. Goodwill is attributable to the future anticipated economic benefits from combining operations of the Company and Delivery Dudes, including future growth into new markets, future customer relationships and the workforce in place. All of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. While the Company has substantially completed the determination of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the Company is still finalizing the calculation of the purchase price adjustments pursuant to the asset purchase agreement for the Delivery Dudes Acquisition, which could affect the final fair value analysis. The Company anticipates finalizing the determination of the fair values by the second quarter of 2021.

The following table sets forth the components of estimated identifiable intangible assets acquired from Delivery Dudes (in thousands) and their estimated useful lives as of the acquisition date:

The acquired identifiable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis to reflect the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed. The acquired customer relationships were valued using the income approach, specifically, the multi-period excess earnings method, which measures the after-tax cash flows attributable to the existing customer relationships after deducting the operating costs and contributory asset charges associated with economic rents associated with supporting the existing customer relationships. The franchise relationships were also valued using the multi-period excess earnings method. The acquired trade name was valued using the income approach, specifically, the relief from royalty rate method,which measures the cash flow streams attributable to the trade name in the form of royalty payments that would be paid to the owner of the trade name in return for the rights to use the trade name. Developed technology was valued based on the cost approach, specifically the “with & without” methodology which considers the direct replacement and opportunity costs associated with the underlying technology, and in-process research and development assets were valued using the replacement cost method. These fair value measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. These inputs required significant judgments and estimates at the time of the valuation.

The results of operations of ~~Bite Squad~~Delivery Dudes are included in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date, ~~January 17, 2019.~~March 11, 2021. Revenue and net loss ~~attributable to Bite Squad for~~of Delivery Dudes included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations in the three months ended ~~September 30, 2019~~March 31, 2021 totaled approximately ~~$23,996~~$831 and ~~$196,205, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 totaled approximately $73,058 and $208,156,~~$21, respectively.

In connection with the ~~Bite Squad Merger,~~Delivery Dudes Acquisition, the Company incurred direct and incremental costs of ~~$6,956, including debt modification expense of $375,~~$606 consisting of legal and professional fees, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations in the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2019.~~March 31, 2021.

~~The following discussion includes a description of the Company’s outstanding debt at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.~~ Interest expense related to the Company’s outstanding debt totaled ~~$2,117~~$1,901 and ~~$2,775~~$2,914 for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019, respectively, and $7,521 and $6,570 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019,~~ respectively. Interest expense includes interest on outstanding borrowings and amortization of debt issuance costs. See Note 15 – Related Party Transactions for additional information regarding the Company’s long-term debt.

On ~~July 15, 2020,~~March 9, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement and an amendment to the Convertible Notes Agreement (together, the “Amended Loan Agreements”)~~, pursuant to which each~~. The Amended Loan Agreements provide, among other things, for the Delivery Dudes Acquisition being included in the definition of Permitted Acquisition (as defined in the Credit Agreement and ~~the~~ Convertible Notes ~~Agreement was amended~~Agreement). Additionally, pursuant to ~~provide that, upon~~ the ~~payment of $10,500 of the Term Loans under~~amendment to the Credit Agreement, the ~~interest rates under~~Company made a $15,000 payment on the ~~Amended~~Term Loan ~~Agreements would be reduced by 200 basis points for a~~ ~~one-year~~ period, so that the interest rate under the Credit Agreement will be 5.125% per annum and the interest rate under the Convertible Notes Agreement will be 4.0% per annum during such period, and the maturity dates under such agreements would be extended by one year to November 15, 2023.on March 16, 2021. See ~~Debt Facility~~Term Loan and Notes below for definitions of certain capitalized terms included ~~above and details on the payment of a portion of the Term Loans.~~above.

The Company evaluated the amendments in the Amended Loan Agreements under ASC 470-50, “Debt Modification and Extinguishment”, and concluded that the amendments did not meet the characteristics of debt extinguishments under ASC 470-50. Accordingly, the amendments were treated as a debt modification, and thus, no gain or loss was recorded. A new effective interest rate for ~~each of~~ the Term ~~Loans and Notes~~Loan that equates the revised cash flows to the carrying amount of the original debt is computed and applied prospectively.

~~On May 1, 2020, the~~The Company Waitr Inc., Waitr Intermediate Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned direct subsidiary of the Company (“Intermediate Holdings”), the lenders party to the Credit Agreement and Convertible Notes Agreement (the “Lenders”) andmaintains an agreement with Luxor Capital Group, LP (“Luxor Capital”) entered into a Limited Waiver and Conversion Agreement (the “Waiver and Conversion Agreement”), pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to waive the requirement to prepay the Term Loans arising as a result of the May 2020 ATM Offering (as defined in ~~Note 12 – Stockholders’ Equity~~). In consideration of the prepayment waiver, the Company agreed that, regardless of whether any shares of the Company’s common stock were actually sold in the May 2020 ATM Offering, (i) the Company would prepay a portion of the Term Loans in the amount of $12,500 on the date that wassixty days after the Effective Date (as defined in the Waiver and Conversion Agreement) and (ii) the lenders under the Notes would be permitted to convert a portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes in the amount of $12,500 into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of 746.269 shares of the Company’s common stock per 1 thousand principal amount of the Notes (calculated based on the closing price of $1.34 per share of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq on April 30, 2020, the date immediately preceding the date of the Waiver and Conversion Agreement), notwithstanding the conversion rate then in effect pursuant to the terms of the Notes. See ~~Debt Facility~~ ~~and~~ ~~Notes~~ ~~below for definitions of certain capitalized terms included above and details on the payment of a portion of the Term Loans and conversion of Notes.~~

~~The Company evaluated the amendments in the Waiver and Conversion Agreement under ASC 470-50, “Debt Modification and Extinguishment~~”, and concluded that the amendments did not meet the characteristics of debt extinguishments under ASC 470-50. Accordingly, the amendments were treated as a debt modification, and thus, no gain or loss was recorded. A new effective interest rate that equated the revised cash flows to the carrying amount of the original debt was computed and applied prospectively through July 15, 2020, the effective date of the Amended Loan Agreements.

~~In November 2018, Waitr Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of the Company, as borrower, entered into the Credit and Guaranty Agreement~~ (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) ~~with Luxor Capital, as administrative agent and collateral agent, the various lenders party thereto, Intermediate Holdings, and certain subsidiaries of Waitr Inc. as guarantors.~~. The Credit Agreement ~~provided~~provides for a senior secured first priority term loan ~~facility~~ (the ~~“Debt Facility”~~“Term Loan”) ~~to Waitr Inc. in the aggregate principal amount of $25,000~~(the “Original Term Loans”). An amendment to the Credit Agreement in January 2019 provided an additional $42,080 under the Debt Facility (the “Additional Term Loans” and together with the Original Term Loans, the “Term Loans”), the proceeds of which ~~were used to consummate the Bite Squad Merger.~~ is~~The Term Loans are~~ guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company.

~~On July 2, 2020,~~ In connection with the Term Loan, the Company ~~made a payment~~issued to Luxor Capital warrants which are currently exercisable for 478,458 shares of ~~$12,500~~the Company’s common stock (see Note 12 – Stockholders’ Equity).

Interest on the Term Loans pursuant to the Waiver and Conversion Agreement, and on August 3, 2020, the Company made a payment of $10,500 on the Term Loans pursuant to the July 15, 2020 amendment to the Credit Agreement. Interest on borrowings under the Debt Facility accrued at a rate of 7.125% per annum from January 17, 2019 through August 3, 2020. The interest rate was reduced to 5.125% per annum on August 3, 2020, for a one-year period, in connection with the July 15, 2020 amendment to the Credit Agreement and related payment of the Term Loans. InterestLoan is payable quarterly, in cash or, at the

election of the ~~borrower~~,Company, as a ~~payment-in-kind. The quarterly~~payment-in-kind, with interest ~~payments due from September 30, 2019 through June 30, 2020 were~~ paid in-kind ~~and~~being added to the aggregate principal balance. The aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans at September 30, 2020 totaled $49,479. The effective interest rate for borrowings on the Debt Facility, after considering the allocated discount, is approximately 9.49%.

The Credit Agreement includes a number of customary covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of each of ~~Intermediate Holdings, Waitr Inc.~~the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional debt, incur liens on assets, engage in mergers or consolidations, dispose of assets, pay dividends or repurchase capital stock and repay certain junior indebtedness. The ~~aforementioned restrictions are subject to certain exceptions including the ability to incur additional indebtedness, liens, dividends, and~~ ~~prepayments~~ of junior indebtedness subject, in each case, to compliance with certain financial metrics and/or certain other conditions and a number of other traditional exceptions that grant Waitr Inc. continued flexibility to operate and develop its business. The Credit Agreement also includes customary affirmative covenants, representations and warranties and events of default. We believe that we were in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement as of ~~September 30, 2020.~~

~~In connection with the Debt Facility, the Company issued to Luxor Capital warrants which are currently exercisable for 399,726 shares of the Company’s common stock. See~~ ~~Note 12 – Stockholders’ Equity~~ ~~for additional details.~~March 31, 2021.

~~In November 2018, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Convertible Notes Agreement”), pursuant to which~~Additionally, the Company issued unsecured convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) to Luxor Capital Partners, LP, Luxor Capital Partners Offshore Master Fund, LP, Luxor Wavefront, LP and Lugard Road Capital Master Fund, LP (the “Luxor Entities”) inpursuant to an agreement, herein referred to as the ~~aggregate principal amount of $60,000 (the “Notes”)~~“Convertible Notes Agreement”.

~~The~~Interest on the Notes ~~originally~~ ~~had an interest rate of~~ ~~1.0% per annum, paid~~is payable quarterly, in ~~cash. Pursuant to an amendment to~~cash or, at the Convertible Notes Agreement on May 21, 2019, the interest rate of the Notes was revised to 6.0%, and on August 3, 2020, the interest rate was revised to 4.0% per annum, for a one-year period, pursuant to the July 15, 2020 amendments to the Convertible Notes Agreement and Credit Agreement. Effective with the May 21, 2019 amendment to the Convertible Notes Agreement, the Company may elect to payCompany’s election, up to one-half of the dollar amount of an interest payment due ~~in-kind. A portion of the quarterly interest payments due from June 30, 2019 through June 30, 2020 were paid in-kind and~~can be paid-in-kind. Interest paid-in-kind is added to the aggregate principal balance. Pursuant to the Waiver and Conversion Agreement, Luxor converted $12,359 of the Notes into 9,222,978 shares of the Company’s common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and $141 of the Notes into 105,384 shares of the Company’s common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2020. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes, after considering the impact of interest paid-in-kind and the conversions, totaled $49,504 as of September 30, 2020. ~~The effective interest rate for borrowings on the Notes, after considering the allocated discount, is approximately 6.49%.~~

The Notes include customary anti-dilution protection, including broad-based weighted average adjustments for issuances of additional shares (down-round features). Upon maturity, the outstanding Notes (and any accrued but unpaid interest) will be repaid in cash or converted into shares of common stock, at the holder’s election. The Notes are currently convertible at the holder’s election into shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate of ~~$12.51~~$10.45 per share.

The Company’s payment obligations on the Notes are not guaranteed. The Convertible Notes Agreement contains negative covenants, affirmative covenants, representations and warranties and events of default that are substantially similar to those that are set forth in the Credit Agreement ~~and applicable to Waitr Inc. and Intermediate Holdings~~ (except those that relate to collateral and related security interests, which are not contained in the Convertible Notes Agreement or otherwise applicable to the Notes). We believe that we were in compliance with all covenants under the Convertible Notes Agreement as of ~~September 30, 2020.~~

These amounts are reflected in other current and non-current liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

D~~uring~~During the third quarter of 2020, the Company identified and corrected an immaterial error related to the understatement of an accrued medical contingency (the “Medical Contingency”) that affected previously issued consolidated financial statements. ~~The error related to the understatement of an accrual for a workers’ compensation claim at December 31, 2018 (the “Medical Contingency”).~~ The Company became liable for a claim due to the insolvency of a previous workers compensation insurer, Guarantee Insurance Company (“GIC”), and the subsequent determination by the Louisiana Insurance Guaranty Association, the agency created by the Louisiana insurance guaranty act to pay for claims of insolvent members (“LIGA”), that coverage was ineligible. During the third quarter of 2020, the Company discovered the error upon receipt of information from a third-party administrator regarding an increase in the estimated amount of loss exposure for the claim. Upon review of this information, management determined that the original estimate provided by this third-party administrator was not correct based on the information known at December 31, 2018 related to the severity of the Medical Contingency. As a result, the Company engaged a third-party actuary to assist in the calculation of the estimated loss exposure and determined that the accrued liability recorded at December 31, 2018 for the claim was understated by approximately $17,505, which resulted in additional expense for the year ended December 31, 2018 of $17,505.

insurer. The Company assessed the materiality of the error, both quantitatively and qualitatively, in accordance with the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, and concluded that the error was not material to any of its previously reported financial statements based upon qualitative aspects of the error. However, as the error was large quantitatively, ~~the Company determined that the cumulative~~

correction of this error would have a material effect on the financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. Accordingly, in order to present the impact of the updated estimated liability for the claim, previously issued financial statements have been revised and are presented “As Revised” in the tables below. The cumulative impact of the error correction on the Company’s retained earnings and stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2019 was a reduction of approximately $17,505. Any further changes in the Medical Contingency going forward are related to payments made in connection with the Medical Contingency. Additionally, any changes in the assumptions, including life span and medical condition related to the Medical Contingency would be considered a change in estimate. No such changes occurred during the year ended December 31, 2019 or the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

~~The revised estimated loss exposure would have been reflected in other expense in the consolidated statement of operations~~ for the year ended December 31, 2018. The estimated loss exposure would have been reflected in other expense due to the one-time nature of the expense that the Company does not consider to be an ongoing part of its operations. The understatement of the loss exposure in fiscal 2018 did not have an impact to the consolidated statement of operations for any quarterly or annual period in 2019 or any quarterly period in 2020. The long-term portion of the related liability is included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as accrued medical contingency, with the current portion included in other current liabilities, for the affected years. The Company’s liability for workers’ compensation claims incurred and an estimate for claims incurred but not yet reported (“IBNR”), other than the accrued medical contingency, remains in the accrued workers compensation liability line on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet, with the current portion included in other current liabilities.

A summary of the effects of the error correction on reported amounts as of and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2019, the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 is presented below. The information in the tables below represents income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement line items affected by the revision. As shown in the tables below, there was no impact to net cash provided by (used in) operating activities in any quarterly or annual period in 2019 or any quarterly period in 2020.

The Company received an assessment from the State of Mississippi Department of Revenue (the “MDR”), in connection with their audit of Waitr for the period from April 2017 through January 2019, claiming additional sales taxes due. The assessment related to the MDR’s assertion that sales taxes are due on the delivery fees charged to end user customers when an order is placed on the Waitr Platform. The total asserted claim, plus estimated accrued interest and penalties, amounted to approximately $339 at June 30, 2020. The Company disagreed with the MDR’s assertion. Pursuant to a legislative ruling on this matter which went into effect on July 1, 2020, delivery fee revenue was determined to be a non-taxable transaction, resulting in the Company no longer having exposure for this claim. Accordingly, the assessed taxes are no longer due and the MDR abated all penalties related to such assessment.

In November 2017, GIC, the Company’s former workers’ compensation insurer, was ordered into receivership for purposes of liquidation by the Second Judicial Circuit Court in Leon County, Florida. At the time of the court order, GIC was administering the

Company’s outstanding workers’ compensation claims. Upon entering receivership, the guaranty associations of the states where GIC operated began reviewing outstanding claims administered by GIC for continued claim coverage eligibility based on guaranty associations’ eligibility criteria. LIGA determined that the Company’s enterprise value exceeded the $25,000 eligibility threshold for claims coverage. As such, LIGA assessed one of the Company’s outstanding claims as ineligible for coverage.

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company discovered an error upon the receipt of information from a third-party administrator regarding the estimated amount of loss exposure for a certain workers’ compensation claim (the Medical Contingency claim), and determined the original estimate provided by the third-party administrator was in error based on the information known at December 31, 2018.comparative purposes.

The cumulative impact of the ~~estimated liability~~error correction on the Company’s retained earnings and stockholders’ equity as of January 1, 2020 was $17,505. As shown in the table below, there was no impact to net cash provided by operating activities for the ~~claim,~~three months ended March 31, 2020. Net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was not impacted by the revision. Line items affected by the revision are included in the tables below.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had operating lease agreements for office facilities in various locations in the United States, which expire on various dates through August 2026. The terms of the lease agreements provide for rental payments that generally increase on an annual basis. The Company does not have any material finance leases. The Company recognizes expense for leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term, which the Company generally expects to be the non-cancellable period of the lease. As of March 31, 2021, the Company recognized on its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet operating right-of-use assets of $5,064 and current and noncurrent operating lease liabilities of $1,518 and $3,885, respectively. Operating lease costs recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 totaled $401.

The following table presents supplemental cash flow information and the weighted-average lease term and discount rate for the Company’s ~~previously issued financial statements have been revised.

In July 2016, Waiter.com, Inc. filed a lawsuit against Waitr Inc. in the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, alleging trademark infringement based on Waitr’s use of the “Waitr” trademark and logo, Civil Action No.: 2:16-CV-01041. Plaintiff seeks injunctive relief and damages relating to Waitr’s use of the “Waitr” name and logo. During the third quarter of 2020, the trial date was rescheduled to June 2021, and in September 2020, the court ruled on various motions, certain of which ruled against defenses the Company had advanced. Waitr believes that the damages case lacks merit and that it has a defense to the infringement claims alleged. Waitr continues to vigorously defend the suit.

~~In February 2019, the Company was named a defendant in a lawsuit titled~~ ~~Halley, et al vs. Waitr Holdings Inc.~~ filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana on behalf of plaintiff and similarly situated drivers alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”), and in March 2019, the Company was named a defendant in a lawsuit titled ~~Montgomery v. Waitr Holdings Inc. filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana on behalf of plaintiff and similarly situated drivers, alleging violations of FLSA and Louisiana Wage Payment Act.~~ The ~~parties to the~~ ~~Halley~~ ~~and~~ ~~Montgomery~~ matters jointly filed with the court a motion for preliminary approval of a settlement agreement whereby the Halley and Montgomery plaintiffs, on behalf of themselves and similarly situated drivers, would dismiss the lawsuits against the Company in consideration for the Company issuing up to 1,556,420 shares of Waitr common stock to be allocated to participating class members pursuant to a formula set forth in the settlement agreement. On April 28, 2020, the court granted the motion and held a fairness hearing on August 19, 2020. The court approved a final judgment pursuant to which the Company would pay 873,720 shares of common stock to settle the lawsuits. In connection with the settlement, the Company accrued a ~~$3,023 liability which~~$4,000 reserve in connection with this lawsuit during the first quarter of 2021. The accrued legal contingency is included in other current liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at ~~September 30, 2020. Included~~March 31, 2021 and in other expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations ~~in other expenses~~ for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended September 30, 2020 is an expense of $1,023 related to the settlement. The liability was settled upon the issuance of 873,720 shares of the Company’s common stock to the participating class members on October 7, 2020.March 31, 2021.

In April 2019, the Company was named as a defendant in a class action complaint filed by certain current and former restaurant partners, captioned Bobby’s Country Cookin’, et al v. Waitr, which is currently pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana. Plaintiffs allege, among other things, claims for breach of contract, violation of the duty of good faith and fair dealing, and unjust enrichment, and seek recovery on behalf of themselves and two separate classes. Based on the current class definitions, as many as 10,000 restaurant partners could be members of the two separate classes that the representative plaintiffs are attempting to certify. ~~The hearing~~Plaintiff’s deadline to file a motion for class certification is ~~currently scheduled for July~~October 2021. Waitr ~~believes~~maintains that the underlying allegations and claims lack merit, and that the classes, as pled, are incapable of certification. Waitr ~~intends~~continues to vigorously defend the suit.

putative class action claims alleging, inter alia, that various defendants made false and misleading statements in securities filings, engaged in fraud, and violated accounting and securities rules. A similar putative class action lawsuit, entitled Kelly Bates, Individually and on Behalf of all Others Similarly Situated vs. Christopher Meaux, David Pringle, Jeff Yurecko, Tilman J. Fertitta, Richard Handler, Waitr Holdings Inc. f/k/a Landcadia Holdings Inc., Jefferies Financial Group, Inc. and Jefferies, LLC, was filed in that same court in November 2019. These two cases were recently consolidated, and an amended complaint was filed in October 2020. The Company filed a motion to dismiss in February 2021. Waitr believes that this lawsuit lacks merit and that it has strong defenses to all of the claims alleged. Waitr ~~intends~~continues to vigorously defend ~~this lawsuit.~~the suit.

In addition to the lawsuits described above, Waitr is involved in other litigation arising from the normal course of business activities, including, without limitation, labor and employment claims, allegations of infringement, misappropriation and other violations of intellectual property or other rights, lawsuits and claims involving personal injuries, physical damage and workers’ compensation benefits suffered as a result of alleged conduct involving its employees, independent contractor drivers, and third-party negligence. Although Waitr believes that it maintains insurance with standard deductibles that generally covers liability for potential damages in many of these matters where coverage is available on acceptable terms (it is not maintained for claims involving intellectual property), insurance coverage is not guaranteed, often these claims are met with denial of coverage positions by the carriers, and there are limits to insurance coverage; accordingly, we could suffer material losses as a result of these claims or the denial of coverage for such claims.

OnIn June ~~16,~~ 2020, the Company’s stockholders approved the Waitr Holdings Inc. Amended and Restated 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the ~~“Amended 2018~~“2018 Incentive Plan”), which ~~is an amendment and restatement of the Waitr Holdings Inc. 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2018 Incentive Plan”). The Amended 2018 Plan~~ permits the granting of awards in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance-based awards, and other stock-based or cash-based awards. The Amended 2018 Plan was adopted principally to serve as a successor plan to the 2018 Incentive Plan, and to increase the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance of equity-based awards by 13,500,000 shares, which is in addition to the share reserve amount that remained available under the 2018 Incentive Plan prior to the adoption of the Amended 2018 Plan. Additionally, the Amended 2018 Plan extended the provision for automatic increases in shares reserved for issuance on January 1^st ~~of each year to January 1, 2030. The automatic increases each year are equal to 5% of the total number of outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on December 31~~^st ~~of the preceding calendar year.~~ As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, there were ~~7,438,443~~11,642,846 shares of common stock available for future grants pursuant to the ~~Amended~~ 2018 Incentive Plan. The Company also has outstanding equity awards under the 2014 Stock Plan (as amended in 2017, the “Amended 2014 Plan”).

Total compensation expense related to awards under the Company’s incentive plans was ~~$1,728~~$2,078 and ~~$2,195~~$848 for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019, respectively, and $3,178 and $6,747 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019,~~ respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, 500,000 stock options were granted under the 2018 Incentive Plan, with an aggregate grant date fair value of $1,095. The weighted average exercise price of the options is $2.78, and the options will vest in twelve quarterly installments during the period from October 1, 2021 through July 1, 2024. The options have an approximate 5 year exercise term. On January 3, 2020, 9,572,397 stock options were granted under the 2018 Incentive Plan to the Company’s chief executive officer (the “Grimstad Option”), with an aggregate grant date fair value of $2,297. The exercise price of the options is $0.37, and the options ~~will~~ vest 50% on each of the first two anniversaries of the grant date. The options have a five-year exercise term.

The fair value of each stock option grant during the ~~Grimstad Option~~three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was estimated as of the grant date using an option-pricing model with the ~~following assumptions:~~assumptions included in the table below. Expected volatility for stock options is estimated based on a combination of the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price and the historical and implied volatility of comparable publicly traded companies.

Outstanding stock options, which were fully vested and expected to vest and exercisable are as follows as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the fair value of the common stock and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their in-the-money options on each date. This amount will change in future periods based on the fair value of the Company’s stock and the number of options outstanding. The aggregate intrinsic value of awards exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $15 and $12, respectively. Upon exercise, the Company issued new common stock.

~~On April 23, 2020, 3,134,325 performance~~The Company’s restricted stock grants include performance-based and time-based vesting awards. The fair value of restricted shares is typically determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

As of March 31, 2021, there were 3,159,325 performance-based RSUs ~~were granted~~outstanding under the Company’s 2018 Incentive Plan, including 3,134,325 RSUs granted to ~~Mr.~~the Company’s chief executive officer in April 2020 (the “Grimstad RSU Grant”).

The Grimstad RSU Grant~~and vests in full in the event of a change of control, as defined in Mr. Grimstad’s employment agreement with the Company (the “Employment Agreement”), subject to his continuous employment with the Company through the date of a change of control; provided, however, that the Grimstad RSU Grant shall fully vest in the event that Mr. Grimstad terminates his employment for good reason or he is terminated by the Company for reason other than misconduct. NaN stock-based compensation expense will be recognized for the Grimstad RSU Grant until such time that is probable that the performance goal will be achieved, or at the time that Mr. Grimstad terminates his employment for good reason or he is terminated by the Company for reason other than misconduct, should either occur.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020, 4,227,501~~March 31, 2021, 195,000 RSUs with time-based vesting were granted pursuant to the Company’s 2018 Incentive Plan ~~and the Amended 2018 Plan~~ (with an aggregate grant fair value of value of ~~$9,613), of which 1,400,000~~$714). The RSUs were granted to non-employee directors vesting upon the earlier of June 30, 2021 and the date of the 2021 annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders and 2,827,501 RSUs were granted to employees and consultants vesting generally ~~between one to~~vest in three years, ~~of the date of grant.The RSU grants vest in various manners in accordance with the terms specified in the applicable RSU award agreements, all of which~~and accelerate and fully vest upon a change of control.

The Company recognized compensation expense for restricted stock of $1,744 and $475 during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

At ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had an outstanding medical contingency claim which is measured at fair value on a recurring basis (see Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies). The long-term portion of the liability for such claim is included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets under accrued medical contingency, with the short-term portion included within other current liabilities. The medical contingency claim is measured at fair value using a method that incorporates life-expectancy assumptions, along with projected annual medical costs for each future year, adjusted for inflation. An average annual inflation rate of 3.5% was used in the development of the actuarial estimate for medical costs, based on historical medical cost inflation trends as published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Additionally, the measurement includes factors to derive a probability-weighted average of future payments in order to reflect variations from the life-expectancy assumptions, using CDC National Vital Statistics Reports as a tool in the analysis. Projected cash flows are discounted using an interest rate consistent with the U.S. 30-year treasury yield curve rates.

The medical contingency claim analysis represents a Level 3 measurement as it was based on unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s assumptions used in developing the fair value estimate. The inputs used in the measurement, particularly life expectancy and projected medical costs, are sensitive inputs to the measurement and changes to either could result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurements. The Company utilized historical transactional data regarding the claim, along with projections for future comprehensive medical care costs. These inputs required significant judgments and estimates at the time of the valuation.

The following table presents the Company’s liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019~~2020 (in thousands):

The Company had 0 assets required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis at ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 or December 31, ~~2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company did 0t make any transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy.~~2020. Adjustments to the accrued medical contingency are recognized in other expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

There have been 0 transfers between levels during the periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The following table presents a reconciliation of liabilities classified as Level 3 financial instruments for the periods indicated (in thousands):

In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company is required to record certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The Company generally applies fair value concepts in recording assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations and asset acquisitions (see Note 3 – Business Combinations).

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period and potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and warrants, except in cases where the effect of the common stock equivalent would be antidilutive.

During 2019, the Company calculated basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share using the two-class method. Participating securities during 2019 consisted of restricted stock awards which contained rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends. The Company had net losses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, and accordingly, pursuant to the guidance under ASC 260, a portion of the net losses was not allocated to such securities under the two-class method. During 2020, there were 0 remaining outstanding restricted stock awards and no other securities classified as participating securities.

The calculation of basic and diluted ~~earnings (loss)~~loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020 ~~and 2019~~ is as follows (in thousands, except share and per share data):

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

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Form 10-Q”) and with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s ~~2019~~2020 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March ~~16, 2020. In addition to historical condensed consolidated financial information, the~~8, 2021. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect ~~the Company’s~~future plans, estimates, beliefs and ~~beliefs. Actual~~expected performance. The forward-looking statements are dependent upon events, risks and uncertainties that may be outside of our control. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in ~~the~~these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to ~~these~~such differences are set forth in the section titled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”. Dollar amounts in this discussion are expressed in thousands, except as otherwise noted.

Waitr operates an online ~~food~~ ordering technology platform, providing delivery, carryout and dine-in options, connecting ~~local~~ restaurants, drivers and diners in cities across the United States. Our strategy is to bring delivery, carryout and dine-in infrastructure to underserved populations of restaurants, grocery stores and diners and establish strong market presence or leadership positions in the markets in which we operate. ~~In January 2019, we completed the acquisition of Bite Squad, an online food ordering platform with operations similar to those of Waitr.~~ Our business has been built with a restaurant-first philosophy by providing differentiated and brand additive services to the restaurants on the Platforms. Our Platforms allow consumers to browse local restaurants and menus, track order and delivery status, and securely store previous orders for ease of use and convenience. Restaurants benefit from the online Platforms through increased exposure to consumers for expanded business in the delivery market and carryout sales. ~~In October 2020,~~

On March 11, 2021, we ~~diversified our product offering beyond food~~completed the acquisition of Delivery Dudes, a third-party delivery ~~with~~business primarily serving the ~~launch of tableside~~South Florida market (see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” for additional details). The acquisition strengthens the Company’s market presence in the on-demand delivery service ~~technology for restaurants.~~

sector. At ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we had over ~~19,000~~23,000 restaurants, in over ~~700~~800 cities, on the Platforms. Average Daily Orders for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020 ~~and 2019~~ were approximately ~~39,880~~37,627 and ~~48,155,~~37,576, respectively, and revenue was ~~$52,734~~$50,930 and ~~$49,201, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, Average Daily Orders were approximately 40,563 and 53,579, respectively, and revenue was $157,483 and $148,575,~~$44,243, respectively.

~~During the first half of~~We continued to build on our success from 2020, ~~we implemented various strategic initiatives, with a focus on improving~~growing our revenue ~~per order, costs per order,~~and generating positive operating cash flow ~~profitability~~in first quarter of 2021. The acquisition of Delivery Dudes and ~~liquidity, including~~organic expansion into new markets during the ~~successful completion~~first quarter of 2021 strengthened our market presence in both existing and new markets. In a ~~switch~~continued effort to ~~an independent contractor model for~~support our restaurants partners, we partnered with certain ordering integration systems, providing improved operational efficiency that benefits restaurants and customers. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2021, we added several national brands and delivery ~~drivers. We focused efforts on operational improvements through the streamlining of operations, support and sales and marketing functions and offered new and enhanced service offerings~~only “virtual” restaurant concepts to our Platforms, further bolstering our restaurant ~~partners. During~~base and expanding selection for our diners.

We have thus far been able to operate effectively during the ~~third~~COVID-19 pandemic. In response to economic hardships experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. federal government has rolled out stimulus payments in the first quarter of ~~2020,~~2021 which we continued to work with new and existing restaurant partners to boost delivery potential by providing value-added marketing and support services. The implementation of these initiatives resulted in profitable results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. Slightly offsetting thesebelieve had a positive ~~results was a decline in~~impact on our order volumes and revenue during the third quarter of 2020 as compared to the second quarter of 2020, due to a number of factors, including without limitation severe weather-related events which temporarily suspended operations in certain markets we operate in, an easing of COVID-19 restrictions on in-restaurant dining, as well as the economic effects of the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

Sales of our common stock pursuant to our ATM Program launched in March and May 2020, along with the implementation of the initiatives discussed above, resulted in increases in our working capital and liquid assets as of September 30, 2020. At the completion of our ATM Program on July 10, 2020, we had sold a total of 23,698,720 shares of common stock for net proceeds of approximately $47,574.volumes. We continue to evaluate additional opportunities to further strengthen our liquidity position, fund growth initiatives and/or combine with other businesses to complement our operating cash flows as we pursue our long-term growth plans.

~~In March 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic became more widespread in the U.S., we launched several initiatives~~implement measures to help protect and support our restaurant partners, diners, independent contractor drivers and our employees during these unprecedented times, including offering no-contact delivery ~~in select markets~~ for certain restaurant delivery ~~orders; offering no-contact grocery delivery in select markets; working with certain restaurant partners to waive diner delivery fees; deploying free marketing programs for certain restaurants;~~orders and providing masks, gloves and hand sanitizer to drivers. Additionally, in early April 2020, we expanded our delivery areas to further support our restaurant partners and diners. We have experienced a significant increase in the number of new independent contractor driver applications during the last six months, providing us the sufficient capacity to satisfy additional delivery and carryout demand from restaurant partners and diners.

~~We have thus far been able to operate effectively during the COVID-19 pandemic. I~~n early March 2020, we initially experienced declines in order volumes over an approximate three-week period, as restaurant and diner routines were disrupted by state-mandated stay-at-home orders and business closures. In mid-to-late-March, however, we began to experience steady improvements in our order volumes and experienced an approximate 18% increase in average daily orders during the second quarter of 2020 as compared to the first

~~quarter of 2020.~~ ~~Restrictions on in-restaurant dining resulted in restaurants utilizing delivery services, which in turn had a positive impact on our~~ ~~business.~~

The potential short and long-term impacts and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and on the Company’s business, in particular, ~~are~~remain uncertain and may be difficult to assess or ~~predict.~~predict at this time. The pandemic has resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, which may reduce the Company’s ability to access capital and continue to operate effectively. ~~The COVID-19 pandemic could also~~ ~~reduce~~ ~~the demand for the Company’s services. In addition, a~~A prolonged recession or additional financial market corrections resulting from the spread of COVID-19, including an increase in the number of COVID-19 cases, could adversely affect demand for the Company’s services. To the extent that the COVID-19 pandemic adversely impacts the Company’s business, results of operations, liquidity or financial condition, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the risk factors in the Company’s ~~2019~~2020 Form 10-K. Management continues to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak and the possible effects on its financial position, liquidity, operations, industry and workforce.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, along with related disclosures. We regularly assess these estimates and record changes to estimates in the period in which they become known. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ from estimates. ~~The Company periodically engages third-parties to assist management in various fair value estimations.~~

Significant estimates and judgements relied upon in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements affect the following items:

Other than the changes disclosed in Part I, Item 1, Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates described in the ~~2019~~2020 Form 10-K.

See Part I, Item 1, Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for a description of accounting standards adopted during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021. Also described in Note 2 are pending standards and their estimated effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

~~We currently qualify~~Through year-end 2020, we qualified as an “emerging growth company” pursuant to the provisions of the JOBS Act. ~~For as long as~~As an emerging growth company, we ~~are an “emerging growth company,” we may~~were able to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth ~~companies,”~~companies”, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, reduced disclosure obligations relating to the presentation of financial statements in ~~Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, exemptions from the requirements of holding advisory “say-on-pay” votes on executive compensation and stockholder advisory votes on golden parachute compensation.

Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that a decision to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable.

~~We will no longer qualify as an emerging growth company on December 31, 2020. At such time, we will no longer have the option to take advantage of the applicable exemptions described above and~~ will be required to include an opinion from our independent registered public accounting firm on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.

~~Bite Squad Merger.~~Delivery Dudes Acquisition. The ~~Bite Squad Merger~~Delivery Dudes Acquisition was considered a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, and has been accounted for using the acquisition method. Under the acquisition method of accounting, total ~~merger~~purchase consideration, acquired assets and assumed liabilities are recorded based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The excess of the fair value of ~~merger~~purchase consideration over the fair value of the assets less liabilities acquired has been recorded as ~~goodwill.~~goodwill on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021. The results of operations of ~~Bite Squad~~Delivery Dudes are included in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date, ~~January 17, 2019.~~March 11, 2021.

In connection with the ~~Bite Squad Merger,~~Delivery Dudes Acquisition, we incurred direct and incremental costs during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2019~~March 31, 2021 of approximately ~~$6,956,~~$606, consisting of legal and professional fees, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations in such period.

Changes in Fee Structure. ~~Since 2017, our~~Our fee structure evolved gradually from a per transaction fee plus a percentage of the food sale amount to one based exclusively on a percentage of the food sale amount. In early 2018, we also established a multi-tier fee structure, allowing restaurants to elect to pay a higher fee rate in lieu of paying a one-time set-up and integration fee. Additionally, we initiated modifications tohas changed at various times since our fee structure in July 2019 with a majority of restaurants on the Waitr Platform, which became effective in August 2019, and in January 2020, with the majority of our remaining restaurants, which became effective throughout February 2020.inception. We continue to review and update our current rate structure, as necessary, as we look to offer new and enhanced value-adding services to our restaurant partners. Any changes to our fee structure could affect the comparability of our results of operations from period to period.

Seasonality and Holidays. Our business tends to follow restaurant closure and diner behavior patterns. In many of our markets, we have ~~generally~~historically experienced ~~a relative increase~~variations in order frequency ~~from September to March and a relative decrease in diner activity from April to August primarily~~ as a result of weather patterns, university summer breaks and other vacation periods. In addition, a significant number of restaurants tend to close on certain major holidays, including Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and Christmas ~~Eve-Day, in our key markets.~~Day. Further, diner activity may be impacted by unusually cold, rainy, or warm weather. Cold weather and rain typically drive increases in order volume, while unusually warm or sunny weather typically drives decreases in orders. Furthermore, snowstorms, ice storms, hurricanes and tropical storms have adverse effects on order volume, particularly if they cause

property damage or utility interruptions to our restaurant partners. Consequently, our results between quarters, or between periods may vary as a result of prolonged periods of unusually cold, warm, inclement, or otherwise unexpected weather and the timing of certain holidays. As shown in our results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, theThe COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on our ~~historical~~typical seasonality ~~trends.~~trends and could impact future periods.

Acquisition Pipeline. We ~~actively~~continue to maintain and evaluate aan active pipeline of potential ~~acquisitions~~acquisition targets and may ~~be acquisitive~~pursue acquisitions in the future. ~~Future~~These potential business acquisitions may impact the comparability of our results in future periods ~~with those for~~relative to prior periods.

Efficient Market Expansion and Penetration. ~~Our continued revenue~~Revenue growth and any corresponding improved cash flow and profitability is dependent on successful restaurant, diner and driver penetration of our markets and achieving ~~our targeted~~ scale in current and future markets. Failure in achieving ~~positive market-level operating margins (exclusive of indirect and corporate overhead costs)~~this scale could adversely affect our working capital, which in turn, could slow our growth plans.

We typically target markets that we ~~estimate~~believe could achieve sustainable positive ~~market-level operating margins that support market~~ operating cash flows and profits, improve efficiency, and appropriately leverage the scale of our advertising, marketing, research and development, and other corporate resources. Our financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations depend, in significant part, on our ability to achieve and sustain our target profitability thresholds in our markets.

Waitr’s Restaurant, Diner and ~~Diner~~Driver Network. A significant part of our ~~growth~~strategy is our ability to successfully expand our network of restaurants, diners and ~~diners~~drivers using the Platforms. If we fail to retain existing ~~restaurants and diners using the Platforms,~~ or to add new restaurants, diners and ~~diners to the Platforms,~~drivers, our revenue and overall financial results ~~and business~~ may be adversely affected.

Defined below are the key business metrics that we use to analyze our business performance, determine financial forecasts, and help develop long-term strategic plans:

Active Diners. We count Active Diners as the number of diner accounts from which an order has been placed through the Platforms during the past twelve months (as of the end of the relevant period) and consider Active Diners an important metric because the number of diners using our Platforms is a key revenue driver and a valuable measure of the size of our engaged diner base.

Average Daily Orders. We calculate Average Daily Orders as the number of orders during the period divided by the number of days in that ~~period.~~period, including holidays. Average Daily Orders is an important metric for us because the number of orders processed on our Platforms is a key

revenue driver and, in conjunction with the number of Active Diners, a valuable measure of diner activity on our Platforms for a given period.

Gross Food Sales. We calculate Gross Food Sales as the total food and beverage sales, sales taxes, prepaid gratuities, and diner fees processed through the Platforms during a given period. Gross Food Sales are different than the order value upon which we charge our fee to restaurants, which excludes sales taxes, gratuities and diner fees. Prepaid gratuities, which are not included in our revenue, are determined by diners and may ~~differ~~vary from order to order. Gratuities other than prepaid gratuities, such as cash tips, are not included in Gross Food Sales. Gross Food Sales is an important metric for us because the total volume of food sales transacted through our Platforms is a key revenue driver.

Average Order Size. We calculate Average Order Size as Gross Food Sales for a given period divided by the number of orders during the same period. Average Order Size is an important metric for us because the average value of gross food sales on our Platforms is a key revenue driver.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $119,212 to write down the carrying value of goodwill to its implied fair value. The primary factor contributing to a reductionacquired in the fair value was the sustained decline in the Company’s stock price in 2019, resulting in a market capitalization that was significantly lower than the carrying value of the Company’s consolidated stockholders’ equity.

The sustained decline in the Company’s stock price during 2019 resulted in a non-cash intangible asset impairment charge in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 of $71,982 to write down the carrying value of certain intangible assets to their implied fair values. The impairment charge included the write-offs of capitalized contracts costs of $3,815, customer relationships of $57,295 and developed technology of $10,872. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized $852 in impairment charges related to non-recoverable capitalized costs to obtain and fulfill contracts as a result of the termination by certain restaurants of their contracts in connection with the modified fee structure introduced by the Company in July 2019.Delivery Dudes Acquisition.

We used a portion of the proceeds to repay our debt obligations, as discussed below, and intend to use the remaining proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, and to further enhance our ability to resume execution of our operational and growth initiatives.

On July 2, 2020, the Company made a payment of $12,500 on the Term Loans in connection with the Waiver and Conversion Agreement, and on August 3, 2020, the Company made a payment of $10,500 on the Term Loans pursuant to the Amended Loan Agreements, resulting in a reduction of the interest rates under the Term Loans and Notes by 200 basis points for a one-year period, to 5.125% and 4.0% per annum, respectively, and the extension of the maturity dates under the Credit Agreement and Convertible Notes Agreement ~~by one year~~ to ~~November 15, 2023.

Total consideration for the Delivery Dudes Acquisition included $11,500 in cash, subject to certain purchase price adjustments, and 3,562,577 shares of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, pursuant to the amendment to the Credit Agreement, the Company made a $15,000 prepayment on the Term Loan on March 16, 2021.

However, market conditions, our future financial performance or other factors may make it difficult or impossible for us to access sources of capital, on favorable terms or at all, should we determine in the future to raise additional funds.

We are continuously reviewing our liquidity and anticipated working capital needs, particularly in light of the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic. Thus far, we have been able to operate effectively during the pandemic, however, the potential impacts and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy and on our business, in particular, may be difficult to assess or predict.

Our main capital expenditures relate to the purchase of tablets for restaurants on the Platforms and investments in the development of the Platforms, which are expected to increase as we continue to grow our business. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of available funds will depend on many factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in our 2020 Form 10-K.

The following table sets forth our summary cash flow information for the periods indicated:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,						Three Months Ended March 31,

The tablets remain our property. We control software applications and updates on the tablets, and the tablets are devoted exclusively to the Platforms. We also periodically purchase office furniture, equipment, computers and software and leasehold improvements.internally developed software.

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021, net cash used in financing activities included a $14,472 principal payment on the Term Loan and $1,583 of payments on short-term loans for insurance financing. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $21,862, primarily reflecting $47,574 of net proceeds from the sales of common stock under the Company’s ATM Program and $1,906 of proceeds from short-term loans, less $22,594 of payments on the Term Loans and $4,336 of payments on short-term loans.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company’s outstanding debt obligations were reduced by $12,500 in connection with the conversion of Notes pursuant to the Waiver and Conversion Agreement. Additionally, as discussed above, the Company made payments on the Term Loans in July 2020 and August 2020, of $12,500 and $10,500, respectively. The $10,500 payment resulted in a reduction of the interest rates under the Term Loans and Notes by 200 basis pointsloans for ~~a one-year period, to 5.125% and 4.0% per annum, respectively, and the extension of the maturity dates under the Credit Agreement and Convertible Notes Agreement by one year to November 15, 2023.~~

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company’s estimated amount of loss exposure for a medical contingency increased by approximately $17,505 in conjunction with a correction of a prior period error. See Part I, Item 1, ~~Note 9~~ – ~~Correction of Prior Period Error~~ for additional information. As of September 30, 2020, the long-term portion of the claim totaled $16,839. Based on current information available to the Company, annual payments for the medical contingency claim are not expected to be material to the Company’s liquidity or financial position.

As of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q, other than the aforementioned Term Loan payments, Notes conversions and interest rate and maturity date revisions, there have been no significant changes to the Company’s total contractual obligations disclosed in the 2019 Form 10-K.insurance financing.

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021.

This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. All statements, other than statements of historical or current facts, that reflect future plans, estimates, beliefs ~~and~~or expected performance are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they are preceded by, followed by or include words such as “may,” “can,” “should,” “will,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “intend,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “seek,” “target” or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this Form 10-Q and our management’s current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties, including the following factors, in addition to the factors discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, and the factors discussed in our ~~2019~~2020 Form 10-K (Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors)~~, and in our subsequent quarterly reports (Part II, Item 1A.~~ :

These risks and uncertainties may be outside of our control. Forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date. We do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be

required under applicable securities laws. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements.

We are exposed to interest rate risk and certain other market risks in the ordinary course of our business.

As of ~~November 9, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we had outstanding interest-bearing long-term debt totaling ~~$98,983,~~$84,511, consisting of ~~$49,479~~the Term Loan in the amount of ~~Term Loans~~$35,007 and ~~$49,504~~the Notes of ~~Notes.~~$49,504. The interest rates under the Term ~~Loans~~Loan and Notes were reduced by 200 basis points for a one-year period, effective August 3, 2020, in connection with amendments to the loan agreements governing the Term Loan and Notes and a payment on the Term ~~Loans.~~Loan. Although the interest rates decreased on August 3, 2020, we are not currently exposed to interest rate risk on our outstanding debt, as the new rates are

fixed and set to revert back to the fixed rates in effect prior to the amendments. If we enter into variable-rate debt in the future, we may be subject to increased sensitivity to interest rate movements.

We invest excess cash primarily in bank accounts and money market accounts, on which we earn interest. Our current investment strategy is to preserve principal and provide liquidity for our operating and market expansion needs. Since our investments have been and are expected to remain mainly short-term in nature, we do not believe that changes in interest rates would have a material effect on the fair market value of our investments or our operating results.

~~We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.~~

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Based upon the evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level as of ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021.

There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

35Effective January 1, 2021, we are no longer an emerging growth company. Accordingly, for fiscal year 2021, we will be required to include an opinion from our independent registered public accounting firm on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

~~In February 2019, the Company was named a defendant in a lawsuit titled~~ ~~Halley, et al vs. Waitr Holdings Inc~~. filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana on behalf of plaintiff and similarly situated drivers alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”), and in March 2019, the Company was named a defendant in a lawsuit titled ~~Montgomery v. Waitr Holdings Inc.~~ ~~filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana on behalf of plaintiff and similarly situated drivers, alleging violations of FLSA and Louisiana Wage Payment Act.~~ The ~~parties to the~~ ~~Halley~~ ~~and~~ ~~Montgomery~~ matters jointly filed with the court a motion for preliminary approval of a settlement agreement whereby the Halley and Montgomery plaintiffs, on behalf of themselves and similarly situated drivers, would dismiss the lawsuits against the Company in consideration for the Company issuing up to 1,556,420 shares of Waitr common stock to be allocated to participating class members pursuant to a formula set forth in the settlement agreement. On April 28, 2020, the court granted the motion and held a fairness hearing on August 19, 2020. The court approved a final judgment pursuant to which the Company would pay 873,720 shares of common stock to settle the lawsuits. In connection with the settlement, the Company accrued a ~~$3,023 liability which~~$4 million reserve in connection with this lawsuit during the first quarter of 2021. The accrued legal contingency is included in other current liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at ~~September 30, 2020. Included~~March 31, 2021 and in other expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations ~~in other expenses~~ for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020 is an expense of $1,023 related to the settlement.~~ March 31, 2021

In September 2019, Christopher Meaux, David Pringle, Jeff Yurecko, Tilman J. Fertitta, Richard Handler, Waitr Holdings Inc. f/k/a Landcadia Holdings Inc., Jefferies Financial Group, Inc. and Jefferies, LLC were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit entitled Walter Welch, Individually and on Behalf of all Others Similarly Situated vs. Christopher Meaux, David Pringle, Jeff Yurecko, Tilman J. Fertitta, Richard Handler, Waitr Holdings Inc. f/k/a Landcadia Holdings Inc., Jefferies Financial Group, Inc. and Jefferies, LLC. The case was filed in the Western District of Louisiana, Lake Charles Division. In the lawsuit, the plaintiff asserts putative class action claims alleging, inter alia, that various defendants made false and misleading statements in securities filings, engaged in fraud, and violated accounting and securities rules. A similar putative class action lawsuit, entitled Kelly Bates, Individually and on Behalf of all Others Similarly Situated vs. Christopher Meaux, David Pringle, Jeff Yurecko, Tilman J. Fertitta, Richard Handler, Waitr Holdings Inc. f/k/a Landcadia Holdings Inc., Jefferies Financial Group, Inc. and Jefferies, LLC, was filed in that same court in November 2019. These two cases were recently consolidated, and an amended complaint was filed in October 2020. The Company filed a motion to dismiss in February 2021. Waitr believes that this lawsuit lacks merit and that it has strong defenses to all of the claims alleged. Waitr ~~intends~~continues to vigorously defend ~~this lawsuit.~~the suit.

In January 2020, California State Assembly Bill 5 (“AB5”) went into effect, which codifies a test to determine whether a worker is an employee or independent contractor under California law. While the Company does not operate in California, the Company has and expects to receive an increased number of misclassification claims from other states that may be inclined to follow AB5 and there can be no assurance that any claim will not be combined into a collective or class action. Nonetheless, the Company believes that its approach to classification is supported by the law and intends to defend itself vigorously in these matters. As of the date of this filing, we do not believe that any of these claims will have a material impact on our financial condition. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”

~~The following updates the Risk Factors included in the 2019 Form 10-K.~~ Except as set forth below, tthere~~here~~ have been no material changes with respect to Waitr’s risk factors previously reported in Part I, Item 1A, of the ~~2019~~2020 Form 10-K.

~~We face risks related to health epidemics and other outbreaks, which could significantly disrupt our operations.~~

~~In December 2019, an outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, began in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic.~~ The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. Waitr has thus far been able to operate effectively during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the potential impacts and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and on the Company’s business, in particular, are uncertain and may be difficult to assess or predict. The pandemic has resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, which may reduce the Company’s ability to access capital and continue to operate effectively. The COVID-19 pandemic could also reduce the demand for the Company’s services, and a prolonged recession or additional financial market corrections resulting from the spread of COVID-19 could adversely affect demand for the Company’s services. Additionally, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, several jurisdictions have implemented or are considering implementing fee caps, fee disclosure requirements and similar measures that could negatively impact the Company’s financial results. To the extent that the COVID-19 pandemic adversely impacts the Company’s business, results of operations, liquidity or financial condition, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the risk factors in the Company’s 2019 Form 10-K. We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 global outbreak and lifting of any restrictions, although there remains significant uncertainty related to the public health and economic situation globally.

We are subject to a variety of risks relating to our relationships with the independent contractor drivers, shortages of available drivers, adverse conditions impacting drivers, and possible increases in driver compensation.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we terminated our employee drivers and outsourced our driver function to Delivery Logistics, LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Delivery Logistics”), who provides us with independent contractor drivers. While we implemented this change in a way intended to ensure that the drivers are indeed independent contractors under applicable law and regulation, certain state and local governmental authorities have recently initiated efforts to classify independent contractors performing driver jobs as employees. In January 2020, California State Assembly Bill 5 (“AB5”) went into effect, which codifies an employee-friendly test to determine whether a worker is an employee or independent contractor under California law. While the Company does not operate in California, the Company has and expects to receive an increased number of misclassification claims from other states that may be inclined to follow AB5 and there can be no assurance that any claim will not be combined into a collective or class action. These regulatory actions and/or increased scrutinypresidential administration could result in increased ~~costs and burdens for~~misclassification claims against the Company.

~~The change in composition~~During the Trump administration, the U.S. Department of ~~our driver base could also result in~~Labor (“DOL”) relaxed enforcement of misclassification claims under the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”). Additionally, just before President Trump left office, the DOL issued a ~~degradation of service provided by contracted delivery drivers, and an increase in the turnover rates of delivery drivers. If Delivery Logistics is unable to attract and retain a sufficient number of~~new, company-friendly independent contractor ~~drivers, we could face difficulty meeting consumer order demands or be forced~~standard via regulation that was set to ~~forego business that would otherwise be available to us, which could adversely affect our profitability~~go into effect in March 2021. However, after President Biden took office, the DOL paused and ~~ability to maintain or grow our business.~~

Shortages of available drivers could require us to spend more to procure driver services and could create shortages at peak order times. We could face a challenge with having enough qualified drivers primarily due to intense market competition, which may subject us to increased payments for independent contractor driver rates that would negatively impact our profitability.

Further, with respect to independent contractor drivers, shortages can result from the absence of long-term contracts along with other contractual terms or policies that make contracting with Delivery Logistics less desirable to certain independent contractor drivers. In addition, the “on-call” or “on-demand” natureultimately rescinded implementation of the ~~way~~regulation in May 2021. The DOL has not yet proposed a substitute regulation, meaning that ~~we ask independent contractor drivers~~previous, more worker-friendly standard is still in effect. Some legal experts expect the DOL to ~~pick up shifts during busy times may result~~issue additional regulations or guidance proposing an even more worker-friendly standard, such as the “ABC” test that was implemented in ~~difficulties procuring such independent contractor drivers when we need that labor most. Such a shortage could result~~California. Legal experts also expect the DOL under President Biden to become more aggressive in ~~material harm to our business or reputation.~~enforcing misclassification claims against

The financial condition and operating costs of the independent contractor drivers are affected by conditions and events that are beyond our control and may also be beyond their control. Adverse changes in the financial condition of independent contractor drivers or increases in their car ownership or operating costs could cause them to seek higher revenues or to cease their business relationships with Delivery Logistics. The prices that we charge our diners could be impacted by these circumstances, which may in turn limit pricing flexibility with diners, resulting in fewer delivery orders and decreasing our revenues.

Independent contractor drivers may utilize shirts and food carrier equipment bearing our trade names and trademarks; however, it is not required. If one of the independent contractor drivers is subject to negative publicity, it could negatively reflect on us and have a material and adverse effect on our business, brand and financial performance. Under certain state laws, we could also be subject to allegations of liability for the activities of the independent contractor drivers.

~~As independent business owners, independent contractor drivers may make business~~companies, particularly in the gig economy space. The issuance of such additional regulations or ~~personal decisions that conflict with our best interests. For example, if an order is unprofitable, route distance is further than desired~~guidance, or personal scheduling conflicts arise, an independent contractor driver may deny orders from time to time. In these circumstances, we must be able to timely deliver food orders to maintain relationships with diners and restaurants on the ~~Platforms.
