A receivable is recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets when customers are billed related to revenue to be collected and recognized for subscription agreements as there is an unconditional right to invoice and receive payment in the future related to these subscriptions. A receivable and related revenue may also be recorded in advance of billings to the extent services have been performed and the Company has a right under the contract to bill and collect for such performance. Subscription-based customers are generally invoiced annually at the beginning of each annual subscription period. Accounts receivable is presented net of an allowance for potentially uncollectible accounts and estimated cancellations of software license and cloud-based subscriptions (the “allowance”) of $17,704 and $16,272 at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The allowance for potentially uncollectible accounts represents future expected credit losses over the life of the receivables based on past experience, current information and forward-looking economic considerations. The beginning and ending balances of accounts receivable, net of allowance, are as follows: For the six months ended June 30, 2024 For the year ended December 31, 2023 (unaudited) Balance, beginning of period $ 141,752 $ 102,885 Balance, end of period 120,082 141,752 Increase (decrease), net $ (21,670) $ 38,867 A contract liability is recorded as deferred revenue on the condensed consolidated balance sheets when customers are billed in advance of performance obligations being satisfied, and revenue is recognized after invoicing ratably over the subscription period. Deferred revenue is reflected net of a related deferred allowance for subscription cancellations (the “deferred allowance”) of $12,753 and $11,741 at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The deferred allowance represents the portion of the allowance for subscription cancellations associated with deferred revenue.

An asset is recognized for these incremental contract costs and reflected as deferred commissions in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These contract costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over a period consistent with the transfer of the associated product and services to the customer, which is generally three years. Amortization of these costs are included in selling and marketing expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). The Company periodically reviews these contract assets to determine whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred that could impact the period of benefit of these assets. There were no impairment losses recorded for the periods presented. The changes to contract cost balances as of and for the following periods are: For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 (unaudited) (unaudited) Deferred commissions: Beginning balance $ 21,301 $ 15,921 $ 21,237 $ 15,463 Additions 4,785 2,747 8,769 5,598 Amortization (4,224) (1,942) (8,144) (4,335) Ending balance $ 21,862 $ 16,726 $ 21,862 $ 16,726 |
