Care.com, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our”), a Delaware corporation, was incorporated on October 27, 2006. We are the world’s largest online marketplace for finding and managing family care. Our consumer matching solutions enable families to connect to caregivers and caregiving services in a reliable and easy way and our payment solutions enable families to pay caregivers electronically online or via their mobile device and to manage their household payroll and tax matters with Care.com HomePay. In addition, we serve employers by providing access to our platform to employer-sponsored families and care-related businesses-such as day care centers, nanny agencies and home care agencies-who wish to market their services to our care-seeking families and recruit our caregiver members. We also operate a social commerce service selling curated products designed for families. This service generates revenue through the sale of subscriptions and other products to customers in the United States. |
Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties |
We operate in a dynamic industry and, accordingly, our business is affected by a variety of factors. For example, we believe that unfavorable changes in any of the following areas could have a significant negative effect on our future financial position, results of operations or cash flows: rates of revenue growth; member acquisition costs; member engagement and usage of our new and existing products; our ability to scale and adapt our existing technology and network infrastructure; competition in our market; management of our growth; our acquisitions and investments; our ability to retain qualified employees and key personnel; protection of our brand and intellectual property; protection of customers’ information and privacy concerns; security measures related to our website; our ability to access capital at acceptable terms, among other things. |
Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014, filed on March 27, 2015. |
There have been no material changes in our significant accounting policies for the three months ended March 28, 2015 as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2014. Certain immaterial amounts in our December 27, 2014 consolidated financial statements within accrued expenses have been reclassified to be comparable with classifications used in our March 28, 2015 condensed consolidated financial statements. |
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 27, 2014, included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures including notes required by GAAP on an annual reporting basis. |
In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods, and are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for Fiscal 2015 or any future period. |
Principles of Consolidation |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiaries, after elimination of all intercompany balances and transactions. |
Fiscal Year-End |
We operate and report using a 52 or 53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday in December closest and prior to December 31. Accordingly, our fiscal quarters end on the Saturday that falls closest to the last day of the third month of each quarter. |
Use of Estimates |
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable and revenue allowances, intangible asset valuations, expected future cash flows used to evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets, the useful lives of long-lived assets including property and equipment and intangible assets, fair value of stock-based awards, goodwill, income taxes, contingent consideration, and contingencies. We base our estimates of the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, when these carrying values are not readily available from other sources. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from the estimates. |
Subsequent Events Consideration |
We consider events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but prior to the issuance of the financial statements to provide additional evidence for certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated as required. There were no material recognized subsequent events recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 28, 2015. |
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements |
In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2015-02, "Consolidation (Topic 810)-Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis," which amends the criteria for determining which entities are considered variable interest entities, or VIEs, amends the criteria for determining if a service provider possesses a variable interest in a VIE and ends the deferral granted to investment companies for application of the VIE consolidation model. ASU 2015-02 is effective for annual periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2015. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of Topic 810 will have on our financial statements. |
In January 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-01, Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items ("ASU 2015-01”), which eliminates the requirement of Extraordinary Items to be separately classified on the income statement. ASU 2015-01 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2015 and for annual and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2015-01 is not expected to have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures. |
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 requires management to evaluate, at each annual or interim reporting period, whether there are conditions or events that exist that raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued and provide related disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 and earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-15, but the adoption is not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures. |
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for us in our fiscal year 2017. Early application is not permitted. We are evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting. |
