Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) as determined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the balances and results of operations for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Security and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 24, 2021. The results of operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year or any other interim period.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fathom Holdings’ wholly owned subsidiaries. All transactions and accounts between and among its subsidiaries have been eliminated. All adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been included.

Certain Significant Risks and Business Uncertainties — The Company is subject to the risks and challenges associated with companies at a similar stage of development. These include dependence on key individuals, successful development and marketing of its offerings, and competition with larger companies with greater financial, technical, and marketing resources. Furthermore, during the period required to achieve substantially higher revenue in order to become consistently profitable, the Company may require additional funds that might not be readily available or might not be on terms that are acceptable to the Company. See “COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties” below, and “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this report for further detail regarding the risks the Company faces.

Table of Contents

FATHOM HOLDINGS INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Liquidity — The Company has a history of negative cash flows from operations and operating losses. The Company generated net losses of approximately $8.9 million and $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $8.8 million and $28.6 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Additionally, the Company anticipates further expenditures associated with the process of integrating acquisitions and expanding its business. Management believes that existing cash along with its planned budget, which includes continued increases in the number of our agents and transactions at rates consistent with historical growth, and the expected ability to achieve sales volumes necessary to cover forecasted expenses, provide sufficient funding to continue as a going concern for a period of at least one year from the date of the issuance of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties — On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China (“COVID-19”) and the risks to the international community as the virus spreads globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified COVID-19 as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally.

The Company is subject to the risks arising from COVID-19 including its social and economic impacts on the residential real estate industry in the United States. Our management believes that these social and economic impacts, which to date have included but not been limited to the following, could have a significant impact on the Company’s future financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations: (i) restrictions on in-person activities associated with residential real estate transactions arising from shelter-in-place, or similar isolation orders; (ii) decline in consumer demand for in-person interactions and physical home tours; and (iii) deteriorating economic conditions, such as increased unemployment rates, recessionary conditions, lower yields on individual investment portfolios, and more stringent mortgage financing conditions.

Given the daily evolution of COVID-19 and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of COVID-19, including specifically the Delta variant and/or other variants, on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for the year ending December 31, 2021 or beyond. If COVID-19 continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, in conformity with 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to income taxes, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, share-based compensation, goodwill, estimated lives of intangible assets, and intangible asset impairment. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company might differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Business Combinations — The Company accounts for its business combinations under the provisions of ASC Topic 805-10, Business Combinations (“ASC 805-10”), which requires that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. For transactions that are business combinations, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. ASC 805-10 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The estimated fair value of net assets acquired, including the allocation of the fair value to identifiable assets and liabilities, is determined using established valuation techniques. A fair value measurement is determined as the price received to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In the context of acquisition accounting, the determination of fair value often involves significant judgments and estimates by management, including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenues, costs and cash flows, discount rates, and selection of comparable companies. The estimated fair values reflected in the acquisition accounting rely on management’s judgment and the expertise of a third-party valuation firm engaged to assist in concluding on the fair value measurements. For the business combinations completed during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021, the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets, primarily consisting of agent relationships, tradenames, customer relationships, know-how and technology, was determined using the relief-from royalty and multi-period excess earnings methods. The most significant assumptions include the estimated remaining useful life, expected future revenue, annual agent revenue attrition, costs to develop new agents, charges for contributory assets, tax rate, discount rate and tax amortization benefit. The most significant variables in these valuations are discount rates and the number of years on which to base the cash flow projections, as well as other assumptions and estimates used to determine the cash inflows and outflows. Management determines discount rates based on the risk inherent in the acquired assets, specific risks, industry beta and capital structure of guideline companies. Management has developed these assumptions on the basis of historical knowledge of the business and projected financial information of the Company. These assumptions may vary based on future events, perceptions of different market participants and other factors outside the control of Management, and such variations may be significant to estimated values.

The Company includes the results of operations from the acquisition date in the financial statements for all businesses acquired.

Asset Acquisitions — The Company follows the guidance in ASC 805-10 for determining the appropriate accounting treatment for asset acquisitions. ASU No. 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business, provides an initial fair value screen to determine if substantially all of the fair value of the assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset or group of similar assets. If the initial screening test is not met, the set is considered a business based on whether there are inputs and substantive processes in place. Based on the results of this analysis and conclusion on an acquisition’s classification of a business combination or an asset acquisition, the accounting treatment is derived.

If the acquisition is deemed to be a business, the acquisition method of accounting is applied. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date are recorded at fair value. If the transaction is deemed to be an asset acquisition, the cost accumulation and allocation model is used whereby the assets and liabilities are recorded based on the purchase price and allocated to the individual assets and liabilities based on relative fair values.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale —Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at fair value under the fair value option with changes in fair value recorded in other service revenue on the statements of operations. The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale is typically calculated using observable market information including pricing from actual market transactions, purchaser commitment prices, or broker quotations. The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale covered by purchaser commitments is generally based on commitment prices. The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale not committed to a purchaser is generally based on current delivery pricing using best execution pricing.

Intangible Assets, Net — Intangible Assets, net is comprised of definite-lived intangibles and capitalized internal use software.

Definite-lived intangibles: The Company’s definite-lived intangible assets primarily consist of trade names, agent relationships, customer relationships, know-how and technology acquired as part of the Company’s business acquisitions. For definite-lived intangible assets,whenever impairment indicators are present, the Company performs a review for impairment. The Company calculates the undiscounted value of the projected cash flows associated with the asset, or asset group, and compares this estimated amount to the carrying amount. If the carrying amount is found to be greater, the Company will record an impairment loss for the excess of book value over the fair value. In addition, in all cases of an impairment review, the Company will reevaluate the remaining useful lives of the assets and modify them, as appropriate. Currently, trade names, agent relationships, customer relationships, know-how and software development have a useful life estimated at ten years, seven years, eight years, five years and five years, respectively.

Capitalized internal use software: The Company’s capitalized internal use software consists of internally developed software and developed software acquired pursuant to acquisitions. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of website and software development are expensed as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, direct internal and external costs relating to upgrades or enhancements that meet the capitalization criteria are capitalized in intangible assets, net and amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Maintenance and enhancement costs (including those costs in the post-implementation stages) are typically expensed as incurred, unless such costs relate to substantial upgrades and enhancements to the websites (or software) that result in added functionality, in which case the costs are capitalized as well.

Capitalized software costs are amortized over the expected useful lives of the applicable software. Currently, capitalized software for internal use has a useful life estimated between five and seven years. The software acquired pursuant to the Naberly acquisition discussed in Note 3 has a useful life estimated at seven years.

Estimated useful lives of website and software development activities are reviewed annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that intangible assets may be impaired and adjusted as appropriate to reflect upcoming development activities that may include significant upgrades or enhancements to the existing functionality.

Goodwill - Goodwill, which represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, is carried at cost. Goodwill is not amortized; rather, it is subject to a periodic assessment for impairment by applying a fair value-based test. The Company is organized in 6 reporting units and evaluates the goodwill for the Company as a whole at the reporting unit level. Goodwill is assessed during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Under the authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, the Company has the option to first assess the qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the goodwill impairment test is performed. The goodwill impairment test requires the Company to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit and to compare the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, then no impairment is recognized. If the carrying amount recorded exceeds the fair value calculated, then an impairment charge is recognized for the difference. The judgments made in determining the projected cash flows used to estimate the fair value can materially impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. There was 0 impairment of goodwill during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Revenue Recognition — The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), and all related appropriate guidance. The Company recognizes revenue under the core principle to depict the transfer of control to the Company’s customers in an amount reflecting the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. In order to achieve that core principle, the Company applies the following five-step approach: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company has utilized the practical expedient in ASC 606 and elected not to capitalize contract costs for contracts with customers with durations less than one year. The Company does not have significant remaining unfulfilled performance obligations or contract balances.

The Company generates revenue from real estate brokerage services which consists of commissions generated from real estate transactions, which the Company classifies as gross commission income.The Company also generates revenues through mortgage lending, SaaS solutions, as well as title and insurance services, which the Company classifies as other service revenue.

Revenues from real estate brokerage services

The Company’s real estate brokerage services revenue substantially consists of commissions generated from real estate brokerage services. The Company is contractually obligated to provide for the fulfillment of transfers of real estate between buyers and sellers. The Company provides these services itself and controls the services of its agents necessary to legally transfer the real estate. Correspondingly, the Company is defined as the principal. The Company, as principal, satisfies its obligation upon the closing of a real estate transaction. The Company has concluded that agents are not employees of the Company, rather deemed to be independent contractors. Upon satisfaction of its obligation, the Company recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration it is entitled to receive. The transaction price is calculated by applying the Company’s portion of the agreed-upon commission rate to the property’s selling price. The Company may provide services to the buyer, seller, or both parties to a transaction. When the Company provides services to the seller in a transaction, it recognizes revenue for its portion of the commission, which is calculated as the sales price multiplied by the commission rate less the commission separately distributed to the buyer’s agent, or the “sell” side portion of the commission. When the Company provides services to the buyer in a transaction, the Company recognizes revenue in an amount equal to the sales price for the property multiplied by the commission rate for the “buy” side of the transaction. In instances in which the Company represents both the buyer and the seller in a transaction, it recognizes the full commission on the transaction. Commissions revenue contains a single performance obligation that is satisfied upon the closing of a real estate transaction, at which point the entire transaction price is earned. The Company’s customers remit payment for the Company’s services to the title company or attorney closing the sale of property at the time of closing. The Company receives payment upon close of property or within days of the closing of a transaction. The Company is not entitled to any commission until the performance obligation is satisfied and is not owed any commission for unsuccessful transactions, even if services have been provided.

Revenues from mortgage services

The revenue streams for the Company’s mortgage lending services business are primarily comprised of gains and losses from loans sold, and origination and other fees. The majority of these revenue streams are exempted from ASC 606. Origination and other fees are not specifically separable from actual mortgage loans.

The gain on sale of mortgage loans represents the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying value of the mortgage loans sold, including the servicing rights release premiums and is recorded in the statement of operations in other service revenue. Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before maturity.

Servicing rights release premiums represent revenues earned when the risk and rewards of ownership of servicing rights are transferred to third parties.

Retail origination fees are principally revenues earned from loan originations. Direct loan origination costs and expenses associated with the loans are charged to expenses when the loans are sold. Interest income is interest earned on originated loans prior to the sale of the asset.

Revenues from technology

The Company generates revenue from subscription and services related to the use of the LiveBy platform. The SaaS contracts are generally annual contracts paid monthly in advance of service and cancellable upon 30 days’ notice after the first year. The Company’s subscription arrangements do not provide customers with the right to take possession of the software supporting the platform. Subscription revenue, which includes support, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable contractual term of the arrangement, generally beginning on the date that the Company’s service is made available to the customer, and recorded as other service revenue in the statement of operations.

Revenues from title services

The Company’s title services revenue includes fees charged for title search and examination, property settlement and title insurance services provided in association with property acquisitions and refinance transactions. The Company provides the title search and property settlement services itself and controls the services before they are transferred to our customers since the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise and also has full discretion in establishing the price for the settlement services (except in states where fees are set statutorily). As such, the Company is defined as the principal. As principal, the Company satisfies our obligation upon the closing of a real estate transaction. Upon satisfaction of our obligation, the Company recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration the Company is entitled to receive. The transaction price for title and property settlement services is determined by the fixed fees the Company charges for our services. The Company provides services to the buyers and sellers involved in the purchase transaction, as well as to the borrower in a refinance transaction. Title and property settlement revenue contains a single performance obligation that is satisfied upon the closing of a real estate transaction, at which point the entire transaction price is earned. The Company is not entitled to any title and property settlement revenue until the performance obligation is satisfied and is not owed any consideration for unsuccessful transactions, even if services have been provided.

For title insurance services, the Company works in conjunction with insurance underwriters to perform these services, obtains the insurance policy premiums associated with title insurance on behalf of customers and remits the policy premium to the insurance underwriters. Since the insurance underwriter is ultimately providing the insurance policy to the borrower, the Company is not responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the insurance. Additionally, the Company does not have discretion in dictating the price for the insurance policy, which is set by each jurisdiction and is either filed by insurance underwriters or set by the state insurance commissioners. Therefore, the Company does not control the specified service provided by the insurance underwriter. As such, in these circumstances, the Company acts as an agent. As the agent, the Company satisfies our obligation upon the closing of a real estate transaction. Upon satisfaction of our obligation, the Company recognizes revenue in the net amount of consideration the Company is entitled to receive, which is our fee for brokering the insurance policy less any consideration paid to the insurance underwriters. The transaction price for title insurance services is fixed, based on statutory rates depending on the jurisdiction. The Company negotiates with insurance underwriters the percentage they receive, and the rest is recognized as revenue. Title insurance revenue contains a single performance obligation that is satisfied upon the closing of a real estate transaction, at which point the entire transaction price is earned. The Company is not entitled to any title insurance revenue until the performance obligation is satisfied and is not owed any consideration for unsuccessful transactions, even if services have been provided.

Revenues from insurance agency services

The revenue streams for the Company’s insurance agency services business are primarily comprised of new and renewal commissions paid by insurance carriers. The transaction price is set as the estimated commissions to be received over the term of the policy based upon an estimate of premiums placed, policy changes and cancellations, net of restraint. The commissions are earned at the effective date of the associated policies when control of the policy transfers to the client.

The Company is also eligible for certain contingent commissions from insurers based on the attainment of specific metrics (i.e., volume growth, loss ratios) related to underlying polices placed. Revenue for contingent commissions is estimated based on historical and current evidence of achievement towards each insurer’s annual respective metrics and is recorded as the underlying policies that contribute to the achievement are placed. Due to the uncertainty of the amount of contingent consideration that will be received, the estimated revenue is constrained to an amount that is probable to not have a significant negative adjustment. Contingent consideration is generally received in the first quarter of the subsequent year.

Derivative financial instruments — The Company enters into commitments to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding (“interest rate lock commitments”). Interest rate lock commitments on loans that are intended to be sold are considered to be derivatives. Accordingly, such commitments, along with any related fees from potential borrowers, are recorded at fair value in derivative assets and liabilities, with changes in fair value recorded in the statement of operations in other service revenue. Fair value is based upon changes in the fair value of the underlying mortgages, estimated to be realized upon sale into the secondary market. Fair value estimates take into account interest rate lock commitments not expected to be exercised by customers, commonly referred to as fall out.

Table of Contents

FATHOM HOLDINGS INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company manages the interest rate risk associated with its outstanding interest rate lock commitments and loans held for sale by entering into derivative loan instruments such as forward loan commitments, mandatory delivery commitments, options and future contracts, whereby the Company maintains the right to deliver residential loans to purchasers in the future at a specified yield. Fair value is based upon estimated amounts that the Company would receive or pay to terminate the commitment at the reporting date. The Company takes into account various factors and strategies in determining the portion of the mortgage pipeline it wants to economically hedge. Management expects the derivatives used to manage interest rate risk will experience changes in fair value opposite to changes in the fair value of the derivative loan commitments and loans held for sale, thereby reducing earnings volatility.

Reclassifications — Certain amounts in the prior year consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation with no effect on the previously reported net (loss) income or stockholders’ equity. Subsequent to the acquisitions of LiveBy and E4:9, the Company made a change to its segment reporting structure as more fully described in Note 17. This resulted in new line items on the consolidated statement of operations for the following:

●

Gross commission income is comprised of revenues from the Real Estate Brokerage segment which were previously recorded in revenue

●

Other service revenue is comprised of revenues not included in the Real Estate Brokerage segment which were previously recorded in revenue

●

Commission and other agent-related costs is comprised of the direct costs to fulfill the services from the Real Estate Brokerage segment which were previously recorded in cost of revenue

●

Operations and support are comprised of the direct costs to fulfill the services not included in the Real Estate Brokerage segment which were previously recorded in cost of revenue

●

Depreciation and amortization represent the depreciation charged on the Company’s fixed assets and intangible assets which were previously recorded in general and administrative expenses.

Recently Implemented Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The provisions of ASU 2019-12 include eliminating certain exceptions related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The guidance is effective for the reporting period beginning after December 15, 2020, and the interim periods therein. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2021 and the application of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For receivables, loans and other instruments, entities will be required to use a new forward-looking “expected loss” model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for losses. In addition, an entity will have to disclose significantly more information about allowances and credit quality indicators. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements and intends to adopt the standard on January 1, 2023.

Note Payable – Paycheck Protection Program Loan

In May 2020, the Company applied for and received approximately $0.3 million in unsecured loan funding (the “PPP Loan”) from the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”), established pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”).

Under the terms of the promissory note (the “PPP Note”) and the PPP Loan, interest accrued on the outstanding principal at the rate of 1% per annum. The Company believes it has used the entire PPP Note amount for qualifying expenses and applied for forgiveness in March 2021, however, until forgiveness is approved by the SBA there is no assurance that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part.

Additionally, in connection with the acquisition of Verus, the Company assumed approximately $0.1 million in additional loan funding from the PPP. The Company received full forgiveness of all outstanding principal, accrued, and unpaid interest on this loan as of January 6, 2021. The forgiveness of this loan qualified for debt extinguishment in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, and as a result, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest was written off in the amount of approximately $0.1 million and the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment totaling approximately $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Additionally, in connection with the acquisition of E4:9, the Company assumed approximately $0.1 million in loan funding from the PPP (“E4:9 PPP Loan”). Under the terms of the promissory note (the “E4:9 PPP Note”) and the E4:9 PPP Loan, interest accrued on the outstanding principal at the rate of 1% per annum. The Company received full forgiveness of all outstanding principal, accrued, and unpaid interest on this loan as of August 2021. The forgiveness of this loan qualified for debt extinguishment in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, and as a result, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest was written off in the amount of approximately $0.1 million and the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment totaling approximately $0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Note Payable

Additionally, in connection with the acquisition of E4:9, the Company assumed a non-interest-bearing approximately $0.4 million promissory note to be paid in full at maturity date of July 1, 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company paid approximately $0.2 million on the promissory note.

In July 2021, the Company entered into a promissory note for approximately $0.9 million in conjunction with a renewal of its director and officer insurance policy. The interest rate was 2.5% per annum. The note matures on July 31, 2022.

Note Payable – Small Business Administration Loan

On June 5, 2020, the Company received $0.2 million in loan funding from the SBA (the “SBA Note”) under the Economic Injury Disaster Loan program. The Company will use all the proceeds of this secured SBA Note solely as working capital to alleviate economic injury caused by COVID-19. The SBA Note is evidenced by a promissory note of the Company dated June 5, 2020 in the principal amount of approximately $0.2 million, to the SBA, the lender. Under the terms of the SBA Note, interest accrues on the outstanding principal at a rate of 3.75% per annum, and installment payments began in June 2021. All remaining principal and accrued interest is due and payable in May 2050.

Note 10. Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, (“ASC 820”) defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The methodology establishes consistency and comparability by providing a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques into three broad levels, which are described below:

●

Level 1 inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (these are observable market inputs).

●

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability (includes quoted market prices for similar assets or identical or similar assets in markets in which there are few transactions, prices that are not current or prices that vary substantially).

●

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions in pricing the asset or liability (used when little or no market data is available).

A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.

In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where evaluated. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure the financial instruments are recorded at fair value.

While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

Mortgage loans held for sale – The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale is determined, when possible, using quoted secondary-market prices or purchaser commitments. If no such quoted price exists, the fair value of a loan is determined using quoted prices for a similar asset or assets, adjusted for the specific attributes of that loan, which would be used by other market participants. The loans are considered Level 2 on the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative financial instruments – Derivative financial instruments are reported at fair value. Fair value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are unobservable in the market or cannot be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. These instruments are Level 3 on the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value determination of each derivative financial instrument categorized as Level 3 required one or more of the following unobservable inputs:

●

Agreed prices from Interest Rate Lock Commitments (“IRLC”)

●

Trading prices for derivative hedges

●

Closing prices at September 30, 2021 for derivative hedges

The Company enters into IRLCs to originate residential mortgage loans held for sale, at specified interest rates and within a specific period of time (generally between 30 and 90 days), with customers who have applied for a loan and meet certain credit and underwriting criteria. These IRLCs meet the definition of a derivative and are reflected on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in other service revenue on the consolidated statements of operations. Unrealized gains and losses on the IRLCs, reflected as derivative assets and derivative liabilities, respectively, are measured based on the fair value of the underlying mortgage loan, quoted agency mortgage-backed security (“MBS”) prices, estimates of the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights and the probability that the mortgage loan will fund within the terms of the IRLC, net of commission expense and broker fees. The fair value of the forward loan sales commitment and mandatory delivery commitments being used to hedge the IRLCs and mortgage loans held for sale not committed to purchasers are based on quoted agency MBS prices.

The Company did not have any mortgage loans held for sale or derivative financial instruments at December 31, 2020.

Note 11. Leases

Operating Leases

The Company has operating leases primarily consisting of office space with remaining lease terms of 1 to 7 years, subject to certain renewal options as applicable.

Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet, and the Company does not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts. There are no material residual guarantees associated with any of the Company’s leases, and there are no significant restrictions or covenants included in the Company’s lease agreements. Certain leases include variable payments related to common area maintenance and property taxes, which are billed by the landlord, as is customary with these types of charges for office space.

Our lease agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate. Therefore, the Company used a benchmark approach to derive an appropriate imputed discount rate. The Company benchmarked itself against other companies of similar credit ratings and comparable quality and derived an imputed rate, which was used in a portfolio approach to discount its real estate lease liabilities. The Company used estimated incremental borrowing rates for all active leases.

Note 15. Net (Loss) Income per Share Attributable to Common Stock

Basic net (loss) income per share of common stock is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net (loss) income per share is calculated

by adjusting the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period, determined using the treasury-stock method. Diluted (loss) income per share excludes, when applicable, the potential impact of stock options, unvested shares of restricted stock awards, and common stock warrants because their effect would be anti-dilutive due to our net loss.

The calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stock was as follows:

Common stock warrants	240,100	240,100	240,100	240,100

Note 16. Income Taxes

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $9.2 million and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $4.5 million. Losses will begin to expire, if not utilized, in 2032. Utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation according to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended, and similar provisions.

The Company applies the standards on uncertainty in income taxes contained in ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. The adoption of this interpretation did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, as the Company did 0t have any significant unrecognized tax benefits during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 or the year ended December 31, 2020. Currently, the statute of limitations remains open subsequent to and including the year ended December 31, 2016.

In determining the quarterly provision for income taxes, the Company used the annual effective tax rate applied to year-to-date income. The Company’s annual estimated effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate primarily as a result of state taxes, permanent differences, and changes in the Company’s valuation allowance. The income tax effects of unusual or infrequent items including a change in the valuation allowance as a result of a change in judgment regarding the realizability of deferred tax assets are excluded from the estimated annual effective tax rate and are required to be discretely recognized in the interim period they occur.

The effective tax rate differed significantly in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 from prior periods. The Company has historically maintained a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets and reported only minimal current state tax expense. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of approximately $2.8 million and income tax expense of $33,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 respectively. The tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily the result of the release of the valuation allowance against historical deferred tax assets and recognition of benefit from the current year projected loss. Net deferred tax liabilities of approximately $3.2 million recorded in connection with the E4:9 Holdings, Inc. and LiveBy, Inc acquisitions provide a source of taxable income to support the realizability of approximately $1.6 million of pre-existing deferred tax

Table of Contents

FATHOM HOLDINGS INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

assets, as well as currently generated deferred tax assets from the projected loss for the year. The taxable temporary differences relating to the amortizable intangible assets support the realization of the net operating loss carryforwards. As a result of the transactions, the Company discretely released the historical valuation allowance and recognized a deferred tax benefit on a portion of current year losses. The remainder of the benefit not recorded in the period ended September 30, 2021 is expected to be recognized in the period ending December 31, 2021. The Company expects to maintain a valuation allowance on current year remaining net deferred tax assets by year-end due to historical operating losses.

Note 17. Segment Reporting

The Company identifies an operating segment as a component: (i) that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses; (ii) that has available discrete financial information; and (iii) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to allocate resources and to assess the operating results and financial performance of each operating segment.

Historically, management has not made operating decisions nor assessed performance based on geographic locations. Rather, the CODM has made operating decisions and assessed performance based on the services of identified operating segments. Prior to the acquisition of E4:9 during the three months ended June 30, 2021 which included the mortgage lending and insurance agency services, the Company aggregated its real estate brokerage services segment and its affiliated services (e.g., title insurance) segment as the profits and losses and assets of the affiliated services segment were not material.

During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company identified 3 reportable segments: Real Estate Brokerage, Mortgage, and Technology. Through its Real Estate Brokerage segment, the Company provides real estate brokerage services. Through its Mortgage segment, the Company provides residential loan origination and underwriting services. Through its Technology segment, the Company provides SaaS solutions and data mining for third party customers to develop its intelliAgent platform for current use by the Company’s real estate agents. As a result, the Company has modified the presentation of its segment financial information with retrospective application to all prior periods presented.

Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA are the primary measures used by the CODM to evaluate financial performance of the reportable segments and to allocate resources. Adjusted EBITDA represents the revenues of the operating segment less operating expenses directly attributable to the respective operating segment. Adjusted EBITDA is defined by us as net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, income taxes, and other items. In particular, the Company believes the exclusion of non-cash share-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards and stock options and transaction-related costs provides a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operations and provides better transparency into our results of operations. The Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA might not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

The Company does not allocate assets to its reportable segments as they are not included in the review performed by the CODM for purposes of assessing segment performance and allocating resources. The balance sheet is managed on a consolidated basis and is not used in the context of segment reporting.

Key operating data for the reportable segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and are set forth in the tables below (amount in thousands). The Company has included the results of the acquisitions from the acquisition date. As such, the

Note 18. Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time the Company is involved in litigation, claims, and other proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Such litigation and other proceedings may include, but are not limited to, actions relating to employment law and misclassification, intellectual property, commercial or contractual claims, brokerage or real estate disputes, or other consumer protection statutes, ordinary-course brokerage disputes like the failure to disclose property defects, commission disputes, and vicarious liability based upon conduct of individuals or entities outside of the Company’s control, including agents and third party contractor agents. Litigation and other disputes are inherently unpredictable and subject to substantial uncertainties and unfavorable resolutions could occur. As of September 30, 2021, there was no material litigation against the Company.

Encompass Net Worth Requirements

In order to maintain approval from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to operate as a Title II non-supervised mortgagee, Encompass is required to maintain adjusted net worth of $1,000,000 and must maintain liquid assets (cash, cash equivalents, or readily convertible instruments) of 20% of the required net worth. As of September 30, 2021, Encompass had adjusted net worth of approximately $2.4 million and liquid assets of $2.5 million.

Commitments to Extend Credit

Encompass enters into IRLCs with borrowers who have applied for residential mortgage loans and have met certain credit and underwriting criteria. These commitments expose the Encompass to market risk if interest rates change and the underlying loan is not economically hedged or committed to a purchaser. Encompass is also exposed to credit loss if the loan is originated and not sold to a

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

purchaser and the mortgagor does not perform. The collateral upon extension of credit typically of a first deed of trust in the mortgagor’s residential property. Commitments to originate loans do not necessarily reflect future cash requirements as commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon.

Regulatory Commitments

Encompass is subject to periodic audits and examinations, both formal and informal in nature, from various federal and state agencies, including those made as part of the regulatory oversight of mortgage origination, servicing and financing activities. Such audits and examinations could result in additional actions, penalties or fines by state or federal government bodies, regulators or the courts.

Overview

Fathom is a national, technology-driven, end to end real estate services company integrating residential brokerage, mortgage, title, insurance and SaaS offerings for brokers and agents. Our primary operation, Fathom Realty (as defined below), operates as a real estate brokerage company, working with real estate agents to help individuals purchase and sell residential and commercial properties, primarily in the South, Atlantic, Southwest, and Western parts of the United States, with the intention of expanding into all states.

Fathom Realty Holdings, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Fathom Realty”), is a wholly owned subsidiary of Fathom Holdings Inc. that was formed on April 11, 2011 and is headquartered in Cary, North Carolina. Fathom Realty owns 100% of 34 subsidiaries, each an LLC representing the state in which the entity operates (e.g., Fathom Realty NJ, LLC).

In March 2021, the Company completed its acquisitions of Red Barn Real Estate, LLC (“Red Barn”) and Naberly Inc. (“Naberly”). The acquisition of Red Barn, a real estate brokerage business, will help us to expand our reach in the Atlanta region real estate market. We believe the acquisition of Naberly will help to expand and further develop our proprietary intelliAgent platform and improve operational efficiency.

In April 2021, the Company completed its acquisitions of E4:9 Holdings, Inc. (“E4:9) and LiveBy, Inc. (“LiveBy”). The acquisition of E4:9 is part of our vision to build a vertically integrated, end-to-end real estate operation by offering mortgage and insurance services to our agents in serving our customers. We believe the acquisition of LiveBy and its hyperlocal data and technology platform builds credibility for our real estate agents in their respective geographic areas by showcasing their local expertise and helping customers discover the best locations in which to live.

In June 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Epic Realty (“Epic”). The acquisition of Epic, a real estate brokerage business, will help us to expand our reach in the Idaho real estate market.

COVID-19

Our business is dependent on the economic conditions within the markets in which we operate. Changes in these conditions can have a positive or negative impact on our business. The economic conditions influencing the housing markets primarily include economic growth, interest rates, unemployment, consumer confidence, mortgage availability, and supply and demand.

In periods of economic growth, demand typically increases resulting in increasing home sales transactions and home sales prices. Similarly, a decline in economic growth, increasing interest rates and declining consumer confidence generally decreases demand. Additionally, regulations imposed by local, state, and federal government agencies, and geopolitical instability, can also negatively impact the housing markets in which we operate.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was identified in Wuhan, China. This new coronavirus has caused a global health emergency and was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020 (“COVID-19’’ or the “Pandemic”). In an effort to contain and slow the spread of COVID-19, governments implemented various measures, such as, ordering non-essential businesses to close, issuing travel advisories, cancelling large scale public events, ordering residents to shelter in place, and requiring the public to practice social distancing. In most states, real estate has been considered an essential business.

We are continually monitoring the affects COVID-19 could have on our business. We believe that in the states and regions in which we operate the social and economic impacts, which include, but are not limited to, the following, could have a significant bearing on our future financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations: (i) restrictions on in-person activities associated with residential real estate transactions arising from shelter-in-place, or similar isolation orders; (ii) decline in consumer demand for in-person interactions and physical home tours; and (iii) deteriorating economic conditions, such as increased unemployment rates, recessionary conditions, lower yields on individual investment portfolios, and more stringent mortgage financing conditions. In response to COVID-19, the Company implemented cost-saving measures early on to include the elimination of non-essential travel and in-person training activities, and deferral of certain planned expenditures.

COVID-19 has materially and adversely affected businesses worldwide. While the Federal Reserve’s quantitative easing and lowering of interest rates could offset some of the negative impacts on housing demand, it is too early to determine whether the lower interest rates can overcome the current economic concerns and rising uncertainty. According to the NAR housing statistics, existing home sales rose 7% on a seasonally adjusted annual rate from August to September, with no region showing a sales decline. The inventory of unsold homes decreased 13% to 1.27 million year-over-year, which is equivalent to 2.4 months of the monthly sales pace. The median existing-home sales price rose at a year-over-year pace of 13%. We believe these trends were driven by declining mortgage rates, a decline in inventory, and an increasing demand for remote workspace, among other factors.

Despite the ongoing Pandemic, the Company’s transactions and base of agents increased during 2020 and during the first nine months of 2021. However, while the Company believes it is well positioned in times of economic uncertainty, it is not able to estimate the effects of COVID-19, including specifically the Delta variant and/or other variants, on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for the year ending December 31, 2021 and beyond. If the Pandemic continues, it might have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations.

Agents

Due to our low-overhead business model, which leverages our proprietary technology, we can offer our agents the ability to keep significantly more of their commissions compared to traditional real estate brokerage firms. We believe we offer our agents some of the best technology, training, and support available in the industry. We believe our business model and our focus on treating our agents well will attract more agents and higher-producing agents.

We had the following number of agents as of:


	September 30,
	2021	2020	Change
Agents	7,536	5,026	50	%

Agent Equity Ownership

Effective January 1, 2019, agents can receive stock grants, which vest in three years based on continued affiliation with the Company, in two ways: 1) when the agent closes a sale of a property for the Company; and 2) when the agent refers another agent to join the Company. These stock grants are granted quarterly.

Reportable Segments

Historically, as the Company has primarily operated as a cloud-based real estate brokerage and as management has not made operating decisions nor assessed performance based on geographic locations, the Company has aggregated its identified operating segments for reporting purposes and has had one reportable segment. Subsequent to completing its acquisition of LiveBy and E4:9 in the second quarter of 2021, the Chief Operating Decision Maker began making operating decisions and assessing performance based on the services of identified operating segments and has since identified three reportable segments: Real Estate Brokerage; Mortgage; and Technology.

Components of Our Results of Operations

Revenue

The Company’s revenue consists of commissions generated from real estate brokerage services and other services, including mortgage lending, title insurance, home and other insurance, and SaaS revenues.

Gross commission income

We recognize commission-based revenue on the closing of a transaction, less the amount of any closing-cost reductions. Revenue is affected by the number of real estate transactions we close, the mix of transactions, home sale prices, and commission rates.

Other Services Revenue

We recognize revenue streams for our mortgage lending services business which are primarily comprised of loans sold, origination and other fees.

The gain on sale of mortgage loans represents the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying value of the mortgage loans sold and includes the servicing rights release premiums.

Servicing rights release premiums represent revenues earned with the risk and rewards of ownership of servicing rights are transferred to third parties.

Retail origination fees are principally revenues earned from loan originations and recorded in the statement of operations in other service revenue. Direct loan origination costs and expenses associated with the loans are charged to expenses when the loans are sold. Interest income is interest earned on originated loans prior to the sale of the asset.

Title services revenue includes fees charged for title search and examination, property settlement and title insurance services provided in association with property acquisitions and refinance transactions.

The revenue streams for the Company’s home and other insurance agency services business are primarily comprised of new and renewal commissions paid by insurance carriers. The transaction price is set as the estimated commissions to be received over the term of the policy based upon an estimate of premiums placed, policy changes and cancellations, net of restraint. The commissions are earned at the point in time upon effective date of the associated policies when control of the policy transfers to the client.

Operating Expenses

Commission and other agent-related costs

Commission and other agent-related costs consists primarily of agent commissions, less fees paid to us by our agents, order fulfillment, share-based compensation for agents, title searches, and direct cost to fulfill the services provided. We expect commission and other agent-related costs to continue to rise in proportion to the expected increase in revenue.

Table of Contents

Operations and support

Operations and support consist primarily of direct cost to fulfill the services from our mortgage lending, title services, insurance services and other services provided. We expect operations and support to continue to rise in proportion to the expected increase in revenue.

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, share-based compensation for employees, and fees for professional services. Professional services principally consist of external legal, audit, and tax services. In the short term, we expect general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars due to the anticipated growth of our business and to meet the increased compliance requirements associated with our operation as a public company. However, in the long term, we anticipate general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue to decrease over time, if and as we are able to increase revenue.

Marketing

Marketing expenses consist primarily of expenses for online and traditional advertising, as well as costs for marketing and promotional materials. Advertising costs are expensed as they are incurred. We expect marketing expenses to increase in absolute dollars as we use some of the proceeds of our IPO to expand advertising programs and we anticipate marketing expenses as a percentage of revenue to decrease over time, if and as we are able to increase revenue.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization represent the depreciation charged on our fixed assets and intangible assets. Depreciation expense is recorded on a straight-line method, based on estimated useful lives of five years for computer hardware and software, seven years for furniture and equipment and seven years for vehicles. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the life of the lease term or the useful life of the improvements. Amortization expense consists of amortization recorded on acquisition-related intangible assets. Customer relationships are amortized on an accelerated basis, which coincides with the period of economic benefit we expect to receive. All other finite-lived intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis. In accordance with GAAP, we do not amortize goodwill.

Income Taxes

U.S. federal and state income tax benefits for all the historical net losses and a portion of the current net losses generated has been recognized in the period ended September 30, 2021. Previously the tax benefits had not been recognized due to our uncertainty of realizing a benefit from those items. As a result of certain acquisitions this period, we expect to realize the pre-existing and a portion of currently generated deferred tax assets due to future taxable income expected and the reversal of taxable temporary differences. As of December 31, 2020, we had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $9.2 million and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $4.5 million. Losses will begin to expire, if not utilized, in 2032. Utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation according to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended, and similar state law provisions.

Table of Contents

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, gross commission income increased by approximately $39.5 million or 71%, as compared with the three months ended September 30, 2020. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in transaction volume and to an increase in average revenue per transaction due to rising home prices. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, transaction volume increased by 42% to approximately 11,500 transactions compared to approximately 8,100 transactions for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Our transaction volume increased primarily due to the organic growth in the number of agents contracted with us and agents acquired through the acquisitions of Red Barn and Epic. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, average revenue per transaction increase by 20% to $8,288 from $6,895 during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, commission and other agent-related costs increased by approximately $38.4 million, or 73%, as compared with the three months ended September 30, 2020. Commission and other agent-related costs primarily includes costs related to agent commissions, net of fees paid to us by our agents. These costs are generally correlated with recognized revenues. As such, the increase in commission and other agent-related costs compared to the same period in 2020 was primarily attributable to an increase in agent commissions paid due to higher transaction volume and rising home prices.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, operations and support expenses were approximately $2.0 million and were attributable to the Company’s acquisitions of Verus, E4:9 and LiveBy. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for information about these acquisitions.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $7.0 million, or 244%, as compared with the three months ended September 30, 2020. The Company’s acquisitions since the fourth quarter of 2020 contributed approximately $4.0 million in general and administrative expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase was also attributable to our growth and to our becoming a public company, including a $1.4 million increase in payroll salaries and benefits due to increased staffing, a $0.4 million increase in professional fees, a $0.3 million increase in non-cash share-based compensation expense, and to $0.1 million in transaction and acquisition costs.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, marketing expenses increased by approximately $0.4 million, or 171%, as compared with the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was attributable to an increase in direct advertising costs primarily related to the Company’s expansion in new regions and markets.

For the three months ended September 30, 2021, depreciation and amortization expenses increased by approximately $0.9 million, or 2,016%, as compared with the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense is due to the amortization of the intangible assets acquired in connection with the acquisition of Red Barn, E4:9, LiveBy, and Epic as well as an increase in depreciation expense due to an increase in our depreciable asset base.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.2 million and income tax expense of less than $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily the result of the release of the valuation allowance against historical deferred tax assets and recognition of benefit from the current year projected loss. Net deferred tax liabilities of approximately $3.2 million recorded in connection with the E4:9 Holdings, Inc. and LiveBy, Inc

Table of Contents

acquisitions provide a source of taxable income to support the realizability of approximately $1.6 million of pre-existing deferred tax assets, as well as currently generated deferred tax assets from the projected loss for the year. The taxable temporary differences relating to the amortizable intangible assets support the realization of the net operating loss carryforwards. As a result of the transactions, the Company discretely released the historical valuation allowance and recognized a deferred tax benefit on a portion of current year losses. The remainder of the benefit not recorded in the period ended September 30, 2021 is expected to be recognized in the period ending December 31, 2021. The Company expects to maintain a valuation allowance on current year remaining net deferred tax assets by year-end due to historical operating losses.

To date, our principal sources of liquidity have been the net proceeds we received through the IPO and, historically, private sales of our common stock, as well as proceeds from loans and operations. As of September 30, 2021, our available cash totaled approximately $8.8 million, which represented a decrease of $19.8 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. As of September 30, 2021, we had net working capital of approximately $3.1 million, which represented a decrease of $24.9 million compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. We anticipate that our existing balances of cash and cash equivalents and future expected cash flows generated from our operations will be sufficient to satisfy our operating requirements for at least the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

Our future capital requirements depend on many factors, including potential acquisitions, our level of investment in technology, and our rate of growth into new markets as well as the rate of growth for our mortgage lending and insurance businesses. Our capital requirements might also be affected by factors which we cannot control such as the residential real estate market, interest rates, and other monetary and fiscal policy changes to those that currently exist. Additionally, as the impact of COVID-19 on the economy and operations evolves, we will continuously assess our liquidity needs. We may need or seek advantageously to obtain additional funding through equity or debt financing, which might not be available on favorable terms or at all and could hinder our business and dilute our existing shareholders.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE

To supplement our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), we use Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to understand and evaluate our core operating performance. This non-GAAP financial measure, which may be different than similarly titled measures used by other companies, is presented to enhance investors’ overall understanding of our financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We define the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), excluding other (income) expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, transaction costs and share-based compensation expense.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information about our financial performance, enhances the overall understanding of our past performance and future prospects, and allows for greater transparency with respect to a key metric used by our management for financial and operational decision-making. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA helps identify underlying trends in our business that otherwise could be masked by the effect of the expenses that we exclude in Adjusted EBITDA. In particular, we believe the exclusion of non-cash share-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards and stock options and transaction-related costs provides a useful supplemental measure in evaluating the performance of our operations and provides better transparency into our results of operations.

We are presenting the non-GAAP measure of Adjusted EBITDA to assist investors in seeing our financial performance through the eyes of management, and because we believe this measure provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core financial performance over multiple periods with other companies in our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA compared to net income (loss), the closest comparable GAAP measure. Some of these limitations are that:

●

Adjusted EBITDA excludes share-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards and stock options, which have been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, significant recurring expenses in our business and an important part of our compensation strategy;

●

Adjusted EBITDA excludes transaction-related costs primarily consisting of professional fees and any other costs incurred directly related to acquisition activity, which is an ongoing part of our growth strategy and therefore likely to occur; and

●

Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain recurring, non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and acquired and internally developed intangible assets, however, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, revenue, and expenses at the date of the financial statements. Generally, we base our estimates on historical

Table of Contents

experience and on various other assumptions in accordance with GAAP that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that we consider the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations because they require our most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Revenue Recognition

We apply the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”), and all related appropriate guidance. We recognize revenue under the core principle to depict the transfer of control to our customers in an amount reflecting the consideration to which we expect to be entitled. In order to achieve that core principle, we apply the following five step approach: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.

Our gross commission income consists of commissions charged to individual customers (i.e., the seller or buyer of a residential property) on each real estate transaction completed, net of any closing-cost reductions. We are contractually obligated to provide for the fulfillment of transfers of real estate between buyers and sellers. We provide these services ourselves and control the services of our agents necessary to legally transfer the real estate. As such, we are defined as the principal. As principal, we satisfy our obligation upon the closing of a real estate transaction. As principal, and upon satisfaction of our obligation, we recognize revenue in the gross amount of consideration we expect we are entitled to receive. We calculate the transaction price by applying the Company’s portion of the agreed upon commission rate to the property’s selling price. We may provide services to the buyer, seller, or both parties to a transaction. When we provide services to the seller in a transaction, we recognize revenue for our portion of the commission, which is calculated as the sales price multiplied by the commission rate less the commission separately distributed to the buyer’s agent, or the “sell” side portion of the commission. When we provide services to the buyer in a transaction, we recognize revenue in an amount equal to the sales price for the property multiplied by the commission rate for the “buy” side of the transaction. In instances in which we represent both the buyer and the seller in a transaction, we recognize the full commission on the transaction. Commissions revenue contains a single performance obligation that is satisfied upon the closing of a real estate transaction, at which point the entire transaction price is earned. We are not entitled to any commission until the performance obligation is satisfied and are not owed any commission for unsuccessful transactions, even if services have been provided.

The revenue streams for the Company’s mortgage lending services business are primarily comprised of loans sold, origination and other fees. The majority of these revenue streams are exempted from ASC 606. Origination and other fees are not specifically separable from actual mortgage loans.

Gain on sale of mortgage loans represents the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying value of the mortgage loans sold and includes the servicing rights release premiums. Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before maturity.

Servicing rights release premiums represent revenues earned when the risk and rewards of ownership of servicing rights are transferred to third party parties. Mortgage servicing rights represent the obligations to administer, collect the payments for the reduction of principal and application of interest, pay taxes and insurance, remit collected payments, provide foreclosure services, provide full escrow administration and any other obligations required by an owner of the mortgage loans, together with the right to receive the servicing fee income and any ancillary income arising from or connected to the mortgage loans.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for its business combinations under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805-10, Business Combinations (“ASC 805-10”), which requires that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. For transactions that are business combinations, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. ASC 805-10 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred.

The estimated fair value of net assets acquired, including the allocation of the fair value to identifiable assets and liabilities, was determined using established valuation techniques. A fair value measurement is determined as the price we would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In the context of purchase accounting, the determination of fair value often involves significant judgments and estimates by management, including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenues, costs and cash flows, discount rates, and selection of comparable companies. The estimated fair values reflected in the acquisition accounting rely on management’s judgment and the expertise of a third-party valuation firm engaged to assist in concluding on the fair value measurements. For the business combination completed during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021, the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets, primarily consisting of agent relationships, tradenames, customer relationships and technology, was determined using the relief-from-royalty and multi-period excess earnings methods. The most significant assumptions under these methods include the estimated remaining useful life, expected future revenue, annual agent revenue attrition, costs to develop new agents, charges for contributory assets, tax rate, discount rate and tax amortization benefit. Management has developed these assumptions on the basis of historical knowledge of the business and projected financial information of the Company. These assumptions may vary based on future events, perceptions of different market participants and other factors outside the control of Management, and such variations may be significant to estimated values.

The determination and allocation of fair values to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on various assumptions and valuation methodologies requiring considerable management judgment. The most significant variables in these valuations are discount rates and the number of years on which to base the cash flow projections, as well as other assumptions and estimates used to determine the cash inflows and outflows. Management determines discount rates based on the risk inherent in the acquired assets, specific risks, industry beta and capital structure of guideline companies. The valuation of an acquired business is based on available information at the acquisition date and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. However, a change in facts and circumstances as of the acquisition date can result in subsequent adjustments during the measurement period, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

Goodwill

Goodwill, which represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, is carried at cost. Goodwill is not amortized; rather, it is subject to a periodic assessment for impairment by applying a fair value-based test. The Company is organized in one reporting unit and evaluates the goodwill for the Company as a whole. Goodwill is assessed for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Under the authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, the Company has the option to first assess the qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test. If the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the goodwill impairment test is performed. The goodwill impairment test requires the Company to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit and to compare the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, then no impairment is recognized. If the carrying amount recorded exceeds the fair value calculated, then an impairment charge is recognized for the difference. The judgments made in determining the projected cash flows used to estimate the fair value can materially impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. There was no impairment of goodwill for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Mortgage Loans Held for Sale

Mortgage loans held for sale represent loans that have forward sales commitments. Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at fair value under the fair value option with changes in fair value recorded in other service revenue on the statements of operations. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized through a valuation allowance by charges to income. Realized losses are charged to expense as incurred. The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale is typically calculated using observable market information including pricing

Table of Contents

from actual market transactions, purchaser commitment prices, or broker quotations. The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale covered by purchaser commitments is generally based on commitment prices. The fair value of mortgage loans held for sale not committed to a purchaser is generally based on current delivery pricing using best execution pricing.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the combined financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at the applicable enacted tax rates. We establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if it is probable that these items will expire before either we are able to realize their benefit or that future deductibility is uncertain.

In prior periods, we believed it was more likely than not that our deferred tax assets would not be realized and as such, we have historically recorded a full valuation allowance for these assets. The determination to provide a valuation allowance is dependent upon the assessment of whether it is more likely than not that sufficient taxable income will be generated to utilize the deferred tax assets. As a result of deferred tax liabilities generated from acquisitions which can be used as a source of income, we released the valuation allowance on historical deferred tax assets as a discrete item. We evaluate the likelihood of the ability to realize deferred tax assets in future periods on a quarterly basis, and when appropriate evidence indicates we will release our valuation allowance accordingly. Based on management’s reassessment of the realizability of the deferred tax assets, tax benefits are being recognized as a result of the discrete release of the valuation allowance against historical deferred tax assets and to recognize a portion of the future benefit of current losses. Based on the weight of the available evidence, which includes our historical operating losses, lack of taxable income, and accumulated deficit, by year-end we expect to provide a full valuation allowance against our remaining deferred tax assets resulting from the tax losses and credits carried forward.

Recent Accounting Standards

For information on recent accounting standards, see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

JOBS Act Transition Period

In April 2012, the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) was enacted. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Thus, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public companies.

Subject to certain conditions, as an emerging growth company, we may rely on certain other exemptions and reduced reporting requirements under the JOBS Act. Certain of these exemptions are, including without limitation, from the requirements of (i) providing an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; and (ii) complying with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements, known as the auditor discussion and analysis. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier to occur of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our IPO in 2020, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenues of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30th, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, and our President and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Based on the evaluation conducted, our Chief Executive Officer and President and Chief Financial Officer concluded our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2021 due to the material weaknesses discussed below.

The closing of our initial public offering occurred on August 4, 2020. Consequently, as a newly reporting company under the Exchange Act, we are not required to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting until the end of the fiscal year after we file our first annual report on Form 10-K, which will occur on December 31, 2021. However, in connection with the audit of our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we did not effectively apply the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or the COSO framework, due primarily to an insufficient complement of personnel possessing the appropriate accounting and financial reporting knowledge and experience. Additionally, we did not maintain effective controls relating to reconciliation of and recording of revenue.

We are continuing to implement a remediation plan to address the previously reported material weaknesses identified by hiring additional qualified accounting and financial reporting personnel, and further evolving our accounting processes and systems.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, and our President and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter.

As previously noted, we acquired LiveBy and E4:9 during the three months ended June 30, 2021. Management considers these transactions to be material to our consolidated financial statements and believes that the internal controls and procedures of these acquired entities have a material effect on our internal control over financial reporting. We are currently in the process of incorporating the internal controls and procedures of LiveBy and E4:9 into our internal controls over financial reporting and extending our Section 404 compliance program under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the applicable rules and regulations under such Act to include LiveBy and E4:9. We will report on our assessment of the consolidated operations within the time period provided by the Act and the applicable SEC rules and regulations concerning business combinations, which is the annual management report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

There were no changes, other than described above, in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company has not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. The Company will continue to monitor and assess the impact of the COVID-19 situation and our ability to maintain the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting.
