Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements

(in thousands, except share and per share data) 

Note 1 — Organization and business

The principal business of CuriosityStream Inc. (which was renamed CuriosityStream Operating Inc. subsequent to September 30, 2020  – see below) (“CuriosityStream” or the “Company”) is to provide customers with access to high quality factual content via a direct subscription video on-demand (SVoD) platform accessible by internet connected devices, or indirectly via distribution partners who deliver CuriosityStream content via the distributor’s platform or system. The online library available for streaming spans the entire category of factual entertainment including science, history, society, nature, lifestyle, and technology. The library is composed of more than three thousand accessible on-demand and ad-free productions and includes shows and series from leading non-fiction producers.

The Company’s content assets are available directly through its owned and operated website (“O&O Service”), mobile applications developed for iOS and Android operating systems (“App Services”), and via the platforms and systems of third-party partners in exchange for license fees. The Company offers subscribers a monthly or annual subscription. The price for a subscription varies depending on the streaming resolution (e.g., HD or 4K) and the length of the subscription (e.g., monthly or annual) selected by the customer. As an additional part of the Company’s App Services, it has built applications to make its service accessible on almost every major customer device, including streaming media players like Roku, Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV, all major smart TV brands (e.g., LG, Vizio, Samsung, Sony) and gaming consoles. In addition, CuriosityStream has affiliate agreement relationships with, and its content assets are available through, major multichannel video programming distributors (“MVPDs”) and virtual MVPDs (“vMVPDs”).

On October 14, 2020, Software Acquisition Group Inc. (“SWAG” or “New CuriosityStream”) consummated the merger pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated August 10, 2020, by and among SWAG, CS Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of SWAG (“Merger Sub”), CuriosityStream, and Hendricks Factual Media LLC, CuriosityStream’s majority shareholder.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a business combination between SWAG and the Company was effected through the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company surviving such merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of SWAG (the “Merger” and, the completion of the Merger, the “Closing”).

Also, in connection with the Closing, SWAG changed its name from “Software Acquisition Group Inc.” to “CuriosityStream Inc.” and CuriosityStream changed its name from “CuriosityStream Inc.” to “CuriosityStream Operating Inc.”

Note 2 — Basis of presentation and summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) and are consistent in all material respects with those applied in the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2019 included the Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC by SWAG on September 22, 2020. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020.

There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant areas in which management uses estimates include content asset amortization, the assessment of the recoverability of the content assets, and the fair value of common stock and share-based awards.

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements

(in thousands, except share and per share data) 

Concentration of risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, investments, and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash, cash equivalents, and investments with high credit quality financial institutions; at times, such balances with the financial institutions may exceed the applicable FDIC-insured limits.

Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from revenues earned from customers primarily located in the United States.

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash

The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three (3) months or less to be cash equivalents.

At September 30, 2020, restricted cash represents cash deposits required by a bank as collateral related to the Company’s line of credit (see Note 4) and corporate credit card agreements.

Fair value measurement of financial instruments

Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The applicable accounting guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of us. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

● Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

● Level 2 — Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

● Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The Company reviews the fair value hierarchy classification at each reporting period. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of levels for certain securities within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis include its investments in corporate debt securities and government debt securities. Level 1 inputs were derived by using unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets and were used to value the Company’s investments in government debt securities. Level 2 inputs were derived using prices for similar investments and were used to value the Company’s investments in corporate debt securities.

The Company’s remaining financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and borrowings on the line of credit are carried at cost, which approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Investments

The Company holds investments in corporate debt securities and government debt securities which the Company classifies as available-for-sale. The investments are therefore carried at fair value based on unadjusted quoted market prices (Level 1) and quoted prices for comparable assets (Level 2), as noted below:

	As of September 30, 2020								As of December 31, 2019

Unrealized gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, a component of stockholders’ equity (deficit). Gains or losses realized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were not significant.

Realized gains and losses are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income or loss into earnings as a component of net income or loss. The Company evaluates unrealized losses on investments, if any, to determine if other-than-temporary impairment is required to be recognized. No such other-than-temporary impairments were recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. Investments in debt securities that will mature within one year of the balance sheet dates are reflected as Short-term investments in the accompanying balance sheets.

The following tables summarize the Company’s corporate and government debt securities:

The fair value of the Company’s investments in corporate and government debt securities at September 30, 2020 by contractual maturity is as follows:

	September 30, 2020
	Amortized Cost		Estimated Fair Value
Due in one year or less	$	12,084	$	12,114

Total	$	14,829	$	14,884

Content assets, net

The Company acquires, licenses and produces content, including original programming, in order to offer members unlimited viewing of factual entertainment content. The content licenses are for a fixed fee and specific windows of availability. Payments for content, including additions to content assets and the changes in related liabilities, are classified within “Net cash used in operating activities” on the statements of cash flows.

For licenses, the Company capitalizes the fee per title and records a corresponding liability at the gross amount of the liability when the license period begins, the cost of the title is known, and the title is accepted and available for streaming. For productions, the Company capitalizes costs associated with the production, including development costs, direct costs and production overhead.

Based on factors including historical and estimated viewing patterns, the Company generally amortizes the content assets (licensed and produced) in “Cost of revenues” on the statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the shorter of each title’s contractual window of availability or estimated period of use, beginning with the month of first availability. The Company reviews factors impacting the amortization of content assets on an ongoing basis and will record amortization on an accelerated basis when there is more upfront use of a title, for instance due to significant program sales (see below).

The Company’s business model is generally subscription based as opposed to a model generating revenues at a specific title level. Content assets (licensed and produced) are predominantly monetized as a group and therefore are reviewed in aggregate at a group level when an event or change in circumstances indicates a change in the expected usefulness of the content or that the fair value may be less than unamortized cost. If such changes are identified, the aggregated content assets will be stated at the lower of unamortized cost or fair value. In addition, unamortized costs for assets that have been, or are expected to be, abandoned are written off.

Revenue recognition

The following table sets forth the Company’s revenues disaggregated by type for the three and the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, as well as the relative percent of each revenue type to total revenue.

Subscriptions — O&O Service

The Company generates revenue from monthly subscription fees from its O&O Service. CuriosityStream subscribers enter into non-refundable, month-to-month or annual subscriptions with the Company. The Company bills the monthly subscriber on each subscriber’s monthly anniversary date and recognizes the revenue ratably over each monthly membership period. The annual subscription fees are collected by the Company at the start of the annual subscription period and are recognized ratably over the subsequent twelve (12) month period. Revenues are presented net of the taxes that are collected from subscribers and remitted to governmental authorities.

The Company also offers gift certificates for use on a future date. The Company recognizes revenue from gift certificates when the services have been provided. The gift certificates do not expire.

Subscription — App Services

The Company also earns subscription revenues through its App Services. These subscriptions are similar to the O&O Service subscriptions, but are generated based on agreements with certain streaming media players as well as with Smart TV brands and gaming consoles (see Note 1). Under these agreements, the streaming media player typically bills the subscriber directly and then remits the collected subscriptions to the Company, net of a distribution fee. The Company recognizes the gross subscription revenues when earned and simultaneously recognizes the corresponding distribution fees as an expense. The Company is the principal in these relationships as the Company retains control over service delivery to its subscribers.

Licensing — Affiliates

The Company generates license fee revenues from MVPDs such as Altice, Comcast and Cox as well as from vMVPDs such as Amazon and Sling TV (MVPDs and vMVPDs are also referred to as affiliates). Under the terms of the agreements with these affiliates, the Company receives license fees based upon contracted programming rates and subscriber levels reported by the affiliates. In exchange, the Company licenses its content to the affiliates for distribution to their subscribers. The Company earns revenue under these agreements either based on the total number of subscribers multiplied by rates specified in the agreements or based on fixed fee arrangements. These revenues are recognized over the term of each agreement when earned.

Licensing — Program Sales

The Company has distribution agreements which grant a licensee limited distribution rights to the Company’s programs for varying terms, generally in exchange for a fixed license fee. Revenue is recognized once the content is made available for the license to use.

The Company’s performance obligations include (1) access to its SVoD platform via the Company’s O&O Service and App Services, (2) access to the Company’s content assets, and (3) licenses of specific program titles. In contracts containing the right to access the Company SVoD platform, the performance obligation is satisfied as access to the SVoD platform is provided post any free trial period. In contracts which contain access to the Company’s content assets, the performance obligation is satisfied as access to the content is provided. For contracts with licenses of specific program titles, the performance obligation is satisfied as that content is made available for the customer to use.

Payments terms for access to the Company’s SVoD services require payment in advance on or prior to the date access to the service is provided. Payments for contracts providing access to the Company’s content assets are paid either in advance, over the license term, or on a sales and usage basis. Payments for licenses of specific program titles are paid either upfront or over the license term on a fixed fee basis, or on a sales and usage basis. To date, there has been no financing component associated with the Company’s revenue arrangements and such arrangements do not contain rights of return provisions.

Revenues expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied at September 30, 2020 are as follows:

	Rest of year ending December 31,		For the twelve months ending December 31,
	2020		2021		2022		2023		2024		Total
Remaining Performance Obligations	$	3,559	$	17,411	$	7,925	$	1,281	$	95	$	30,271

These amounts include only fixed consideration or minimum guarantees and do not include amounts related to (i) contracts with an original expected term of one year or less or (ii) licenses of content that are solely based on sales or usage-based royalties.

Contract liabilities (i.e. deferred revenue) consists of subscriber and affiliate license fees billed that have not been recognized, and unredeemed gift certificates and other prepaid subscriptions that have not been redeemed. Total deferred revenues were $8,885 and $7,101 at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The increase in deferred revenues is due to the growth in annual license fees to affiliates and annual subscriptions from O&O and App Services, both which require upfront annual payments.

Revenues of $6,393 were recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 related to the balance of deferred revenue at December 31, 2019.

Recently issued financial accounting standards

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under current U.S. GAAP. ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee should recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet. The new guidance also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures related to the nature, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The guidance is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2022 with early adoption permitted, and is required to be implemented using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the new standard on its financial statements, but anticipates a material increase in assets and liabilities due to the recognition of the required right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for all lease obligations that are currently classified as operating leases, such as real estate leases for corporate headquarters, as well as additional disclosure on all its lease obligations. The income statement recognition of lease expense is not expected to significantly change from the current methodology.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires that an entity measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost and replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that requires consideration of a broader range of information to estimate credit losses. The guidance also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2023. The Company is continuing to assess the potential impacts of ASU 2016-13 on its financial statements.

Note 4 — Line of credit

On February 12, 2020, the Company obtained a one-year $4,500 line of credit facility from a bank. The line of credit calls for interest-only monthly payments at a rate equal to the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate plus 2.25%. The loan carries an unused fee of 0.25% annually on all committed but unused capital, payable quarterly in arrears. The entire unpaid principal balance is due when the loan matures on February 28, 2021. The line of credit facility is collateralized by cash of $4,500. At September 30, 2020 there was a balance of $950 drawn under the facility.

Note 5 — Redeemable convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity

Series A Preferred Stock

During November and December 2018, in connection with a private placement equity offering, the Company issued 14,557,000 shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) in exchange for gross proceeds of $145,570. The Company incurred equity issuance costs of $8,027 in connection with this offering, which were reflected as a reduction to the initial carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock balance.

The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock have the right, exercisable at any time, to convert all or any of such shares into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the Accrued Value divided by the then-current Conversion Price. The Accrued Value is equal to the original liquidation preference of $10.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock plus an additional amount equal to the dollar amount of any accrued but unpaid dividends (see below). The Conversion Price is initially $10.00 per share, but shall be subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis on all matters on which holders of Class A and Class B Common Stock vote.

Holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to dividends equal to 10% of the Accrued Value per annum. Such dividends are cumulative and accrue daily in arrears. Cash dividends are payable when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors. If the Board of Directors does not declare a cash dividend in respect of all or a portion of the dividend when due, the Accrued Value of the Series A Preferred Stock will be increased by a corresponding amount. No such dividends have been declared as of September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, cumulative dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock totaled $29,535 ($2.03 per share) and $16,945 ($1.16 per share), respectively.

In the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Company, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, before any distribution to the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, an amount equal to the Accrued Value of such shares plus any other accrued but unpaid dividends (“Series A Preferred Stock Liquidation Value”). If the assets of the Company are insufficient to permit the payment in full of the Series A Preferred Stock Liquidation Value to the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, then the assets will be distributed ratably among the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock.

Upon a Qualifying Public Offering, the Company will have the option to effect the conversion of all Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding into a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the Accrued Value (plus any other accrued but unpaid dividends), divided by the lesser of (1) the Qualifying Public Offering Price or (2) the then-current Conversion Price. A Qualifying Public Offering is defined in the Certificate of Designations for the Series A Preferred Stock as a firm-commitment underwritten registered offering of common stock listed on a national securities exchange with gross proceeds which exceed $75,000.

Immediately prior to the effective date of a Fundamental Change, the Series A Preferred Stock will automatically convert into a number of shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock equal to the Accrued Value (plus any other accrued but unpaid dividends), divided by the lesser of (1) the applicable acquisition or sale price or (2) the then-current Conversion Price on the date of closing such transaction. A Fundamental Change is defined in the Certificate of Designations for the Series A Preferred Stock as any consolidation or merger of the Company or similar transaction or any sale, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all the assets of the Company, pursuant to which its common stock will be converted into, or receive a distribution of the proceeds in, cash, securities or other property, other than pursuant to a transaction in which the shareholders of the Company prior to the transaction continue to own a majority of the total voting power of the surviving company following such transaction. On August 6, 2020 the Company amended the Certificate of Designations to allow for the definitive merger agreement with Software Acquisition Group Inc. to qualify as a Fundamental Change. Refer to Note 12 for the impact of the merger on the Company’s capital structure.

Additionally, the Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable in whole or in part at the holder’s option (i) any time on or after November 15, 2025, (ii) if the Company declares a dividend or distribution on any junior security or a repurchase or redemption of any junior security in violation of the terms of the Certificate of Designations for the Series A Preferred Stock, or (iii) the Company enters into a definitive agreement that would result in a Fundamental Change and holders of the Series A Preferred Stock would receive an illiquid security as consideration in connection with such transaction, in each case for a cash payment equal to the Accrued Value (plus any other accrued but unpaid dividends).

The Company classifies preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control, as temporary equity. Given the redemption rights contained within the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company accounts for the outstanding preferred stock as temporary equity in the balance sheets. Series A Preferred Stock which is classified as temporary equity is initially recorded at its fair value, net of transaction costs, at issuance date. At each reporting period, the amount is adjusted by accreting changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance to the earliest redemption date. The recorded redemption value ($168,288 and $155,174 at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively) includes accrued but unpaid dividends and accretion of issuance costs.

Registration Rights

In connection with the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement, which provides the holders of Series A Preferred Stock certain registration rights with respect to Class A Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. The Company intends to file a registration statement in satisfaction of this registration rights requirement by the deadline set forth in the registration rights agreement.

On August 10, 2020, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement with SWAG, a publicly-traded company (traded on the NASDAQ exchange under the ticker symbol “SAQNU” through October 14, 2020). The transaction will be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangibles assets recorded, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Software Acquisition Group will be treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes.

We capitalize direct incremental legal, accounting costs and consulting fees relating to the Merger Agreement in other non-current assets in our unaudited balance sheets. Following the completion of the Merger with Software Acquisition Group, we will offset these costs against the proceeds. Deferred offering costs were $2,361 as of September 30, 2020, of which $2,232 was incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

Note 6 — Earnings (loss) per share

Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share calculations are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share give effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method for stock options and the if-converted method for redeemable convertible preferred stock. In computing diluted earnings (loss) per share, the average fair value of the Company’s common stock for the period is used to determine the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise price of the options. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation when a loss is incurred as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the following share equivalents related to Series A Preferred Stock and stock options to purchase shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the inclusion of such shares would be anti-dilutive due to the net loss incurred during each period. Common shares issuable for options represent the total amount of outstanding stock options at September 30, 2020 and 2019. Common shares issuable for Series A Preferred Stock were calculated based on the Series A Preferred Stock Liquidation Value and Conversion Price at September 30, 2020 and 2019 (see Note 5).

Note 7 — Stock-based compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. The fair value is recognized in earnings over the period during which an employee is required to provide the service. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

In October 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted and approved the Stock Option Plan. The Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of up to 4,200,000 options to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock to employees, non-employee directors, consultants and independent contractors at option exercise prices and vesting terms as determined by the Board of Directors. Upon adoption of the Omnibus Plan on August 7, 2020, 7,725,000 shares were approved to be issued as incentive stock options, share appreciation rights, restricted stock units and restricted stock. Upon the closing date of the Merger, the previous shares under the Legacy CuriosityStream Stock Option Plan of 4,200,000 were converted into approximately 2,215,000 shares of new company stock options leaving an incremental 5,510,000 shares available to be issued under the Omnibus Plan. Refer to Note 12 for further details.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company’s stock option activity included grants of 70,000 options, forfeitures of 91,216 options, and exercise of 14,000 options to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2020, 182,250 shares vested with a grant date fair value of $275. The total grant date fair value of options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $221.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company’s stock option activity included grants of 896,300 options, forfeitures of 475,466 options and exercise of 14,000 option to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, 426,892 shares vested with a grant date fair value of $459. The total grant date fair value of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $2,459.

On August 7, 2020, the Company waived the revenue target performance conditions associated with certain of its outstanding stock options. On September 8, 2020, the Company cancelled 530,500 stock options and agreed to replace the cancelled options with new equity awards of equal fair value subsequent to the completion of the merger with SWAG. The Company is accounting for the cancellation and concurrent offer to grant replacement awards as a modification of the cancelled options.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, total stock-based compensation expense was $492 and $1,540, respectively.

At September 30, 2020, there was $4,711 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Stock Option Plan, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.00 years.

The aggregate intrinsic value for outstanding and exercisable stock options at September 30, 2020 was $13,970 and $2,974, respectively, and was based on the difference between the exercise price of in-the-money-stock options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of September 30, 2020.

Note 9 — Commitments and contingencies

Content commitments

At September 30, 2020, the Company had $13,543 of content obligations comprised of $2,165 included in current content liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets, and $11,378 of obligations that are not reflected in the accompanying balance sheets as they did not yet meet the asset recognition criteria for content assets (see Note 2). Content obligations of $5,011, $6,980, and $1,552 are expected to be paid during the rest of the three months ending December 31, 2020, and the years ending December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively.

At December 31, 2019, the Company had $10,858 of content obligations comprised of $3,306 included in current content liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets, and $7,552 of obligations that are not reflected in the accompanying balance sheets as they did not yet meet the asset recognition criteria for content assets. Content obligations of $7,905, $1,403 and $1,550 are expected to be paid during 2020, 2021 and 2022, respectively.

Content obligations include amounts related to licensed, commissioned and internally produced streaming content. An obligation for the production of content includes non-cancelable commitments under creative talent and employment agreements. An obligation for the licensed and commissioned content is incurred at the time the Company enters into an agreement to obtain future titles. Once a title becomes available, a content liability is generally recorded. Certain agreements include the obligation to license rights for unknown future titles, the ultimate quantity and/or fees for which are not yet determinable as of the reporting date.

Advertising commitments

The Company has certain commitments with regards to future advertising and marketing expenses as stated in the various licensee agreements. Certain of the agreements do not specify the amount of advertising and marketing commitment; however, the total commitments for agreements which do specify the amount are $20,905 as of September 30, 2020, of which $3,155, $11,750, and $6,000 is expected to be paid during the rest of the three months ending December 31, 2020 and the years ending December 31, 2021 and 2022, respectively.

Operating leases

The Company leases corporate office space in Silver Spring, Maryland. The lease was set to expire April 30, 2027 with an accelerated expiration option on either July 31, 2021 or July 31, 2023, which required payment of an accelerated payment as defined in the lease agreement.

On August 1, 2020 the lease was amended to extend the term of the lease for an additional seventy months from the previous expiration date of April 30, 2027 to now expire on February 28, 2033. The terms of the lease include a rent abatement period of ten months and a tenant improvement allowance of $93 and $295 for 2020 and 2021, respectively.

Note 10 — Income taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, in which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be reversed. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 primarily related to foreign withholding income taxes. The Company’s provision for income taxes differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to the Company being in a full valuation allowance position and not recognizing a tax benefit attributable to generated losses for either federal or state income tax purposes.

Note 11 — Paycheck Protection Program Loan

On May 1, 2020, the Company applied for and received funding from the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) in the amount of $1,158 under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) (the “PPP Loan”). The PPP Loan matures in May 2022 and bears interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum. Monthly amortized principal and interest payments are deferred for six (6) months after the date of disbursement. The PPP provides that the use of the PPP Loan amount shall be limited to certain qualifying expenses and may be partially or wholly forgiven in accordance with the requirements set forth in the CARES Act. The amount of loan proceeds eligible for forgiveness takes into account a number of factors, including the amount of loan proceeds used by the Company during the specified period after the loan origination for certain purposes including payroll costs, rent payments on certain leases, and certain qualified utility payments.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, $168 and $1,158, respectively, of loan proceeds were applied to covered payroll and non-payroll expenses per the PPP. The Company has elected to recognize earnings as funds are applied to covered expenses and classify the application of funds as a reduction of the related expense in the statement of operations. As a result, general and administrative expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 within the unaudited statement of operations are reduced by these amounts. Should the Company’s loan forgiveness application be rejected, the Company may be required to repay all or a portion of the funds received under the PPP under an amortization schedule through May 2025 with an annual interest rate of 1%.

The Company believes it has met all the requirements under the PPP and, after submitting an application for loan forgiveness, anticipates that it will not be required to repay any portion of the grant.

Note 12 — Subsequent events

On October 14, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), SWAG (or “New CuriosityStream”), consummated the merger pursuant to the Merger Agreement dated August 10, 2020, by and among SWAG, Merger Sub, the Company, and Hendricks Factual Media LLC. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are referred to herein as the “Business Combination.”

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law as a wholly-owned subsidiary of SWAG (the “Merger” and, the completion of the Merger, the “Closing”). In connection with the Closing, SWAG changed its name from “Software Acquisition Group Inc.” to “CuriosityStream Inc.” and CuriosityStream changed its name from “CuriosityStream Inc.” to “CuriosityStream Operating Inc.”

The Omnibus Incentive Plan was approved by the SWAG board of directors on August 7, 2020 which was subsequently approved by the stockholders of SWAG to be effective with the Closing of the Merger on the Closing Date. The purpose of the Omnibus Incentive Plan is to promote the interests of New CuriosityStream and its subsidiaries and its stockholders by (i) attracting and retaining directors, executive officers, employees and consultants of outstanding ability; (ii) motivating such individuals by means of performance-related incentives to achieve the longer-range performance goals of New CuriosityStream and its subsidiaries; and (iii) enabling such individuals to participate in the long-term growth and financial success of New CuriosityStream. Awards under the Omnibus Incentive Plan may be made in the form of performance awards, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options, which may be either incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, other stock-based awards and dividend equivalents. Awards are generally non-transferable.

The restricted stock units are subject to the terms and conditions of the Omnibus Incentive Plan and a restricted stock unit agreement.
