SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which are subject to the “safe harbor” created by those sections. All statements (other than statements of historical facts) in this Quarterly Report regarding the prospects of the industry and our prospects, plans, financial position and business strategy may constitute forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expect,” “might,” “intend,” “will,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “suggest,” “project” or “target” or the negatives of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot provide any assurance that these expectations will prove to be correct. Such statements reflect the current views of our management with respect to our operations, results of operations and future financial performance. The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements:

•our ability to compete within our market;

•any deceleration in, or resistance to, the acceptance of model-informed biopharmaceutical discovery and development;

•our ability to retain key personnel or recruit additional qualified personnel;

•changes or delays in government regulation relating to the biopharmaceutical industry;

•increasing competition, regulation and other cost pressures within the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries;

•trends in research and development (“R&D”) spending, the use of third parties by biopharmaceutical companies and a shift toward more R&D occurring at smaller biotechnology companies;

•our ability to successfully enter new markets, increase our customer base and expand our relationships with existing customers;

•our ability to sustain recent growth rates;

•any future acquisitions and our ability to successfully integrate such acquisitions;

•consolidation within the biopharmaceutical industry;

•reduction in the use of our products by academic institutions;

•pricing pressures due to increased customer utilization of our products;

•any delays or defects in our release of new or enhanced software or other biosimulation tools;

•failure of our existing customers to renew their software licenses or any delays or terminations of contracts or reductions in scope of work by our existing customers;

•our ability to accurately estimate costs associated with our fixed-fee contracts;

•risks related to our contracts with government customers, including the ability of third parties to challenge our receipt of such contracts;

•the accuracy of our addressable market estimates;

•the length and unpredictability of our software and service sales cycles;

•our ability to successfully operate a global business;

•our ability to comply with applicable anti-corruption, trade compliance and economic sanctions laws and regulations;

•our ability to perform our services in accordance with contractual requirements, regulatory standards and ethical considerations;

•the loss of more than one of our major customers;

•our future capital needs;

•adverse developments affecting the financial services industry may delay or prevent us or our customers’ ability to access cash, cash equivalents, or investments which could impact the timely payment to vendors and others or timely receipt of payment from customers;

•our ability to realize the anticipated revenue reflected in our bookings;

•any disruption in the operations of the third-party providers who host our software solutions or any limitations on their capacity or interference with our use;

•the occurrence of natural disasters and epidemic diseases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which may result in delays or cancellations of customer contracts or decreased utilization by our employees;

Table of Contents

•our ability to reliably meet our data storage and management requirements, or the experience of any failures or interruptions in the delivery of our services over the internet;

•our ability to comply with the terms of any licenses governing our use of third-party open source software utilized in our software solutions;

•any unauthorized access to or use of customer or their proprietary or confidential data or other breach of our cybersecurity measures;

•our ability to comply with applicable privacy and cybersecurity laws;

•our ability to adequately enforce or defend our ownership and use of our intellectual property and other proprietary rights;

•any allegations that we are infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating a third party’s intellectual property rights;

•risks related to litigation against us;

•the adequacy of our insurance coverage and our ability to obtain adequate insurance coverage in the future;

•our ability to meet the obligations under our current or future indebtedness as they become due and have sufficient capital to operate our business and react to changes in the economy or industry;

•any limitations on our ability to pursue our business strategies due to restrictions under our current or future indebtedness or inability to comply with any restrictions under such indebtedness;

•any impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets;

•our ability to use our net operating loss (“NOLs”) and R&D tax credit carryforwards to offset future taxable income;

•the accuracy of our estimates and judgments relating to our critical accounting policies and any changes in financial reporting standards or interpretations;

•any inability to design, implement, and maintain effective internal controls when required by law, or inability to timely remediate internal controls that are deemed ineffective; and

•the other factors described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (“2022 Annual Report”), and in the other documents and reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of future performance, taking into account the information currently available to us. These statements are only predictions based upon our current expectations and projections about future events. There are important factors, including those described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in our 2022 Annual Report and and subsequent SEC filings, which could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make in this Quarterly Report. Such risk factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the SEC. Our periodic filings are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this Quarterly Report to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements..

Channels for Disclosure of Information

Investors and others should note that we may announce material information to the public through filings with the SEC, our Investors Relations website (https://ir.certara.com), press releases, public conference calls and public webcasts. We use

Table of Contents

these channels to communicate with the public about the Company, our products, our services and other matters. We encourage our investors, the media and others to review the information disclosed through these channels as such information could be deemed to be material information. The information on such channels, including on our website, is not incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any other filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing. This list of disclosure channels may be updated from time to time.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes other than what is discussed herein to the Company’s significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in Note 2 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2022 Annual Report. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022.

(a) Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include, among other estimates, assumptions used in the allocation of the transaction price to separate performance obligations, estimates towards the measure of progress of completion on fixed-price service contracts, the determination of fair values and useful lives of long-lived assets as well as intangible assets, goodwill, allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable, recoverability of deferred tax assets, recognition of deferred revenue, valuation of interest rate swaps, determination of fair value of equity-based awards, measurement of fair value of contingent consideration, and assumptions used in testing for impairment of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

(b) Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and the related interim disclosures are unaudited.

Table of Contents

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to fairly state the financial position and the results of the Company’s operations and cash flows for interim periods in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations or cash flows for a full year or any subsequent interim period. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2022 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. The information as of December 31, 2022 in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet included herein is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report.

In March 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-01, “Common Control Arrangements (Topic 842),” which provide private companies and not-for-profit organizations that are not conduit bond obligors with a practical expedient to use the written terms and conditions of a common control arrangement to determine whether a lease exists and, if so, the classification of and accounting for that lease. In addition, the ASU requires all entities including public companies to amortize leasehold improvements associated with common control leases over the useful life to the common control group. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

(d) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(e) Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 10, “Fair Value Measurements” (“ASC 820-10”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements.

ASC 820 - 10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction. Fair value measurement is based on a hierarchy of observable or unobservable inputs. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.

Level 1 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical securities as of the reporting date;

Level 2 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are other significant observable inputs, including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit risk etc. as of the reporting date, and the fair value can be determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies; and

Level 3 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs in situations where there is little, or no market activity of the securities and the reporting entity makes estimates and assumptions relating to the pricing of the securities including assumptions regarding risk.

If the inputs used to measure fair value fall at different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. For the acquisitions noted in Note 5, the fair value measurement methods used to estimate the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition dates utilized a number of significant unobservable inputs of Level 3 assumptions. These assumptions included, among other things, projections of future operating results, implied fair value of assets using an income approach by preparing a discounted cash flow analysis, and other subjective assumptions.

Interest rate swaps are valued in the market using discounted cash flows techniques. These techniques incorporate Level 1 and Level 2 inputs. The market inputs are utilized in the discounted cash flows’ calculation considering the instrument’s

Table of Contents

term, notional amount, discount rate and credit risk. Significant inputs to the derivative instrument valuation model for interest rate swaps are observable in active markets and are classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

Contingent liabilities related to acquisitions are measured at fair value using Level 3 unobservable inputs. The Company's estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but that are uncertain and involve significant judgments by management. Any changes in the fair value of these contingent liabilities are included in the earnings in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

To estimate the fair value of the contingent consideration liability for Vyasa Analytics, LLC ("Vyasa"), management utilized a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the earn-outs based on the likelihood of reaching certain eligible revenue thresholds. To measure the fair value of the contingent consideration liability for the Drug Interaction Database ("DIDB"), management initially utilized present value discounted based on a multiple of eligible revenue over two separate measurement periods. Significant inputs used in the fair value measurement of contingent consideration is the amount and timing of the acquired entity’s eligible revenue over certain periods subsequent to the acquisition date. At the acquisition date, the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities was $19,813 and $790 for the Vyasa acquisition and DIDB, respectively.

The following table sets forth the assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis by their levels in the fair value hierarchy at September 30, 2023:



	LEVEL 1		LEVEL2		LEVEL 3		TOTAL

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements:

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments when events or circumstances indicate a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the asset. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company performed an interim goodwill impairment test for its Regulatory and Writing business reporting unit. It was determined that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying value, resulting in the recording of a $46,984 goodwill impairment charge and a corresponding reduction in the goodwill carrying amount for the reporting unit.

For more information regarding fair value measurements and the fair value hierarchy, see Note 2. “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report.

(f) Cash and Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less from the date purchased.

Restricted cash represents cash that is reserved for unexpended restricted grant funds and for a Company's credit card program. The restricted cash balance was $0 and $3,102 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash to the amounts presented in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:

Cash and cash equivalents	$	272,312	$	236,586
Restricted cash, current	—		3,102
Total cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	272,312	$	239,688

(g) Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable includes current outstanding invoices billed to customers. Invoices are typically issued with net 30 days to net 90 days terms upon delivery of the product or upon achievement of billable events for service-based contracts.

Table of Contents

Unbilled receivables relate to the Company’s rights to consideration for performance obligations satisfied but not billed at the reporting date on contracts. Unbilled receivables are billed and transferred to customer accounts receivable when the rights become unconditional. The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by a valuation allowance.

The Company estimates the expected credit losses for accounts receivables using historical loss data adjusted for current economic conditions, including reasonable and supportable forecasts to estimate the relative size of credit losses to be expected. The Company generally writes off a receivable or records a specific allowance for credit losses if the Company determines that the receivable is not collectible. Allowances for credit losses of $678 and $1,250 were provided in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Accounts receivable consists of the following:


	SEPTEMBER 30, 2023		DECEMBER 31, 2022
	(In thousands)
Trade receivables	$	64,163	$	72,238
Unbilled receivables	12,761		11,309

Charge-offs, net of recoveries	(624)		(21)
Ending balance	$	678	$	1,250

(h) Derivative Instruments

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to risk from adverse fluctuations in interest rates. The Company has chosen to manage this risk through the use of derivative financial instruments that consist of interest rate swap contracts. Counterparties to these contracts are major financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by these counterparties. The Company does not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The objective in managing exposure to market risk is to limit the impact on cash flows. To qualify for hedge accounting, the interest rate swaps must effectively reduce the risk exposure that they are designed to hedge. In addition, at the inception of a qualifying cash flow hedging relationship, the underlying transaction or transactions must be, and be expected to remain, probable of occurring in accordance with the related assertions.

FASB ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The Company may enter into derivative contracts such as interest rate swap contracts that effectively convert portions of the Company’s floating rate debt to a fixed rate, which serves to mitigate interest rate risk. The Company’s objectives in using interest rate swaps are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

Table of Contents

The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement in May 2022 that pays a fixed interest rate and receives a variable interest rate to modify the interest rate characteristics of term loan debt from variable to fixed in order to reduce the impact of changes in future cash flows due to market interest rate changes. The swap agreement has a notional amount of $230,000, a fixed rate of 2.8% and a termination date of August 31, 2025. During the quarter ended at September 30, 2023, the Company and the counter party amended the floating rate of the swap agreement from term LIBOR to term SOFR due to LIBOR cessation. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the interest swap had a fair value of $9,344 and $8,374, respectively. The fair value recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income was $9,344 and $8,374, respectively, at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The Company uses derivatives to manage certain interest exposures and designated all the derivatives as cash flow hedges. The Company records derivatives at fair value on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Those amounts are reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transactions impact earnings. The amount of derivative gains reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income on this derivative instrument recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) was $1,489, $(355), $3,751, and $(700) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The notional amounts, fair values, and classification of derivative instruments in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows:


Interest rate swap derivative designated as cash flow hedging instrument:	SEPTEMBER 30, 2023		DECEMBER 31, 2022
	(In thousands)
Notional amounts	$	230,000	$	230,000
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	5,880	$	4,638
Other long-term assets	$	3,464	$	3,736

The net amount of deferred gains related to derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges that is expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive gains into earnings over the next twelve months is $5,888.

(i) Goodwill

The goodwill impairment test is performed at least annually at the reporting unit level. An interim test is performed when events or circumstances occur that may indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of any reporting unit may be less than its carrying value.

During the third quarter of 2023, the Company performed interim goodwill impairment tests for Regulatory Writing reporting unit. The fair value of Regulatory Writing reporting unit was determined to be less than its carrying value, resulting in a goodwill impairment charge of $46,984 for the reporting unit. The fair value of that reporting unit was estimated using a combination of the discounted cash flow method and the guideline public company method. The decline in the fair value of the Regulatory Writing reporting unit was driven by revised revenue growth and profitability forecasts resulting from certain reductions in our financial planning assumptions. These reductions were primarily attributable to a decrease in demand from certain customer groups for the legacy reporting unit.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the period ended September 30, 2023 are as follows.

Table of Contents


Balance as of December 31, 2022	$	717,743
Goodwill acquired in connection with acquisition	2,306
Foreign currency translation	94
Impairment expense	(46,984)
Balance as of September 30, 2023	$	673,159

(j) Revenue Recognition

In accordance with ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, the Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

i. Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer

ii. Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

iii. Determination of the transaction price

iv. Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

v. Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

The Company’s revenue consists of fees for perpetual and term licenses for its software products, post-contract customer support (referred to as maintenance), software as a service (“SaaS”), and professional services including training and other revenue. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for promised goods or services.

The following describes the nature of the Company’s primary types of revenues and the revenue recognition policies as they pertain to the types of transactions the Company enters into with its customers.

Software Licenses Revenues

Software license revenue consists primarily of sales of software licenses downloaded and installed by our customers on their own hardware. The license period is generally one year or less and includes an insignificant amount of customer support to assist the customer with the software. Software license performance obligations are generally recognized upfront at the point in time when the software license has been delivered.

Software as a Service (SaaS) Revenues

SaaS revenues consist of subscription fees for access to, and related support for, the Company’s cloud-based solutions. The Company typically invoices subscription fees in advance in annual installments. The invoice is initially deferred and revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the contract. The Company’s software contracts do not typically include, variable consideration, or options for future purchases that would not be similar to the original goods.

Software Service Revenues

Table of Contents

Maintenance services agreements on perpetual software consist of fees for providing software updates and for providing technical support for software products for a specified term. Revenue allocated to maintenance services is recognized ratably over the contract term beginning on the delivery date of each offering. Maintenance contracts generally have a term of one year. While the transfer of control of the software training and implementation performance obligations are over time, the services are typically started and completed within a few days. Due to the quick nature of the performance obligation from start to finish and the insignificant amounts, the Company recognizes any software training or implementation revenue at the completion of the service. Any unrecognized portion of amounts paid in advance for licenses and services is recorded as deferred revenue.

Consulting Service Revenues

The Company’s primary professional services offering includes consulting services, which may be either strategic consulting services, reporting and analysis services, regulatory writing services, or any combination of the three. The Company’s professional services contracts are either time-and-materials or fixed fee. Service revenues are generally recognized over time as the services are performed. Generally, these services are delivered to customers electronically. Revenue from time-and-material contracts is recognized on an output basis as labor hours are delivered and/or direct expenses are incurred. Revenues for fixed-price services are generally recognized over time by applying input methods to estimate progress to completion. Accordingly, the number of resources being paid for and the varying lengths of time they are being paid for determine the measure of progress.

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

For contracts with multiple performance obligations, such as a software license plus software training, implementation, and/or maintenance/support, or in contracts where there are multiple software licenses, the Company determines if the products or services are distinct and allocates the consideration to each distinct performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. The delivery of a particular type of software and each of the user licenses would be one performance obligation. Additionally, any training, implementation, or support and maintenance promises sold as part of the software license agreement would be considered separate performance obligations, as those promises are distinct and separately identifiable from the software licenses. The payment terms in these arrangements are less than one year such that there is no significant financing component.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables (contract assets), and customer advances and deposits (deferred revenue, contract liabilities) on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals (e.g., quarterly or monthly) or upon achievement of contractual milestones.

Contract assets relate to the Company’s rights to consideration for performance obligations satisfied but not billed at the reporting date on contracts (i.e., unbilled revenue, a component of accounts receivable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets). Contract assets are billed and transferred to customer accounts receivable when the rights become unconditional. The Company typically invoices customers for term licenses, subscriptions, maintenance and support fees in advance with payment due before the start of the subscription term, ranging from one to three years. The Company records the amounts collected in advance of the satisfaction of performance obligations, usually over time, as a contract liability or deferred revenue. Invoiced amounts for non-cancelable services starting in future periods are included in contract assets and deferred revenue. The portion of deferred revenue that will be recognized within 12 months is recorded as current deferred revenue, and the remaining portion is recorded as deferred revenue in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Contract balances at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were as follows:


	SEPTEMBER 30, 2023		DECEMBER 31, 2022
	(In thousands)
Contract assets	$	12,761	$	11,309
Contract liabilities	49,217		55,024

Table of Contents

During the nine months ended at September 30, 2023, the Company recognized revenue of $47,230 related to contract liabilities at December 31, 2022.

The unsatisfied performance obligations as of September 30, 2023, were approximately $118,704. We expect to recognize approximately $105,409 or 88.8% of this revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.

Deferred Contract Acquisition Costs

Under ASC Topic 606, sales commissions paid to the sales force and the related employer payroll taxes, collectively deferred contract acquisition costs, are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer.

The Company recognizes an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if the Company expects the benefit of those costs to be longer than one year. The Company has determined that certain sales incentive programs meet the requirements to be capitalized. The costs capitalized are primarily sales commissions for our sales force personnel. Capitalized costs to obtain a contract are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit. Amortization of capitalized costs is included in sales and marketing expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Capitalized contract acquisition costs were $654 and $981 as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively, and were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Grant Revenue

The Company receives grant funding for certain specific projects from time to time. These grants specify the funds provided are to be used exclusively to satisfy the deliverables outlined in the grant agreements. In these agreements, both involved parties receive and sacrifice approximately commensurate value so these are accounted for as exchange transactions and revenue is recognized according to ASC Topic 606. Grant funding is generally provided near contract inception, so a contract liability is initially recorded and revenue is recognized as the performance obligations are satisfied over time.

Sources and Timing of Revenue

The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied either over time or at a point in time. The following table presents the Company’s revenue by timing of revenue recognition to understand the risks of timing of transfer of control and cash flows:


	THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,				NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
	(In thousands)
Software licenses transferred at a point in time	$	9,916	$	10,851	$	38,967	$	36,434
Software licenses transferred over time	21,414		17,541		59,092		49,875
Service revenues earned over time	54,246		56,308		168,268		162,702
Total	$	85,576	$	84,700	$	266,327	$	249,011

(k) Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing the net earnings by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period, without consideration for potentially dilutive securities. Diluted earnings per share

Table of Contents

is computed by dividing the net earnings attributable to stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares and dilutive securities outstanding during the period.

3. Public Offerings and Other significant Shareholder Transactions

On December 11, 2020, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold 14,630,000 shares of common stock and certain selling stockholders, including former controlling shareholder, EQT AB (“EQT”), sold 18,783,250 shares of our common stock (representing the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares), at a public offering price of $23.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of $316,301, after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions. In addition, $4,408 of legal, accounting and other offering costs, net of the tax effect of $259, were incurred in connection with the sale of the Company's common stock in the IPO, were capitalized and offset against the proceeds received in the IPO.

The Company was party to a registration rights agreement with EQT and its affiliates, Arsenal Capital Partners (“Arsenal”), and certain other stockholders, dated December 8, 2020. That agreement was terminated following the sale of all of EQT’s 29,954,521 common shares in the Company to Arsenal on December 8, 2022 (the “Arsenal Transaction”). Arsenal and the Company entered into a new registration rights agreement, dated November 3, 2022 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), which contains provisions that entitle Arsenal to certain rights to have their securities registered by the Company under the Securities Act. While the Registration Rights Agreement is in effect, Arsenal is entitled to (i) four “demand” registrations, (ii) one underwritten offering in any consecutive 90-day period, and (iii) two underwritten offerings in any consecutive 360-day period, subject in each case to certain limitations. In addition, the Registration Rights Agreement provides that the Company will share certain expenses of Arsenal relating to such registrations and indemnify Arsenal against certain liabilities that may arise under the Securities Act. In connection with the Arsenal Transaction, the Company also entered into a letter agreement, effective December 8, 2022, with Arsenal providing that, subject to certain exceptions, Arsenal is prohibited from transferring the shares from EQT until December 8, 2024. Also in connection with the Arsenal Transaction, the Company entered into a stockholders agreement with Arsenal, effective December 8, 2022, which, among other things, grants certain conditional rights to Arsenal to nominate up to two directors to our Board.

On August 11, 2022, the Company completed a secondary public offering in which certain selling stockholders, including EQT, sold 7,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company did not offer any common stock in this transaction and did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. The Company incurred costs of $596, recorded in general and administrative expenses, in relation to the secondary public offering.

4. Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk have consisted principally of cash and cash equivalent investments and trade receivables. The Company invests available cash in bank deposits, investment-grade securities, and short-term interest-producing investments, including government obligations and other money market instruments. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the investments were bank deposits, overnight sweep accounts, and money market funds. The Company has adopted credit policies and standards to evaluate the risk associated with sales that require collateral, such as letters of credit or bank guarantees, whenever deemed necessary. Management believes that any risk of loss is significantly reduced due to the nature of the customers and distributors with which the Company does business.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

5. Acquisitions

Acquisitions have been accounted for by using the acquisition method of accounting pursuant to FASB ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” Amounts allocated to the purchased assets and liabilities assumed are based upon the total purchase price and the estimated fair values of such assets and liabilities on the effective date of the purchase as determined

Table of Contents

by an independent third party. The results of operations have been included in the Company’s results of operations prospectively from the date of acquisition.

Since its inception, and as of September 30, 2023, the Company has completed 18 acquisitions, of which 13 have included software or technology. Details of acquisitions that have closed since the beginning of fiscal year 2022 are provided below.

Integrated Nonclinical Development Solutions, Inc.

On January 3, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Integrated Nonclinical Development Solutions, Inc. (“INDS”), a company that provides the SEND Explorer software and drug development consulting for a total consideration of $8,048. The business combination was not significant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Based on the Company’s purchase price allocation, approximately $2,380, $1,040, $100, and $2,910 of the purchase price were assigned to customer relationships, developed technology, non-compete agreements, and goodwill, respectively.

Vyasa Analytics, LLC (“Vyasa”)

On December 28, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Vyasa, a company that provides an artificial intelligence ("AI") powered, scalable deep learning software and analytics platform for organizations within healthcare and life sciences for a total consideration of $29,276. The business combination was not significant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Based on the Company’s purchase price allocation, approximately $11,400, $1,500, $120, $80 and $16,589 of the purchase price were assigned to developed technology, customer relationships, trademarks, non-compete agreements and goodwill, respectively.

The total estimated consideration includes a portion of contingent consideration that is payable over the next three years in a combination of 70% cash and 30% common stock of the Company. Future payments of contingent consideration are based on achieving certain eligible revenue thresholds for each of the twelve-month periods ended at December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025. Potential payments range from $0 to $60,000 over the three-year period. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated to be $19,813 as of the acquisition date.

The contingent consideration was classified as a liability and included in other long term liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, which is remeasured on a recurring basis at fair value for each reporting period. Any changes in the fair value of these contingent liabilities are included in the earnings in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). At September 30, 2023, the contingent consideration was remeasured to $31,512, resulting in a fair value adjustment of $11,699 and recorded in general and administrative (“G&A”) on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Drug Interaction Solutions, University of Washington ("DIDB")

On June 20, 2023, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with the University of Washington and completed the acquisition of DIDB, including the Drug Interaction Database and related products, from The University of Washington for a total estimated consideration of $8,340. The business combination was not significant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The total estimated consideration includes a portion of contingent consideration that is payable over the next two years in cash, not to exceed $2,000. Future payments of contingent consideration are based on eligible revenue for the period from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2025. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated to be $790 as of the acquisition date. At September 30, 2023, the contingent consideration was remeasured to $407, resulting in a negative fair value adjustment of $383 and recorded in G&A on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

The current purchase price allocation is preliminary. The primary areas of the preliminary purchase price allocations that are not yet finalized relate to the fair value of certain tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and residual goodwill. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining the fair values of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period. Any adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation identified during the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the acquisition date, will be accounted for prospectively.

Table of Contents

Based on the Company’s preliminary purchase price allocation, approximately $330, $5,600, $360, and $2,316 of the purchase price were assigned to trademarks, database content/technology, customer relationships and goodwill, respectively.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the operating results of each acquisition from the date of acquisition.

7. Long-Term Debt and Revolving Line of Credit

The Company has been a party to a Credit Agreement since August 2017 that provides for a senior secured term loan and commitments under a revolving credit facility. The Company and the lenders most recently modified the Credit Agreement on June 17, 2021, which provides for, among other things, (i) the extension of the termination date applicable to the revolving credit commitments to August 2025, (ii) the extension of the maturity date applicable to the term loans under the Credit Agreement to August 2026, and (iii) an increase of approximately $80,000 in commitments available under the revolving line of credit (resulting in an aggregate amount of commitments of $100,000). The term loan under this amendment has substantially the same terms as the existing term loans and revolving credit commitments. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all U.S. assets and stock pledges for the non-U.S. subsidiaries and contains various financial and nonfinancial covenants.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, available borrowings under the revolving lines of credit were $100,000. Available borrowings under the revolving lines of credit as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were reduced by $120 and $120, respectively, of standby letters of credit issued to a landlord in lieu of a security deposit in addition to any outstanding borrowings.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement were subject to a variable interest rate at LIBOR plus a margin. The applicable margins were based on achieving certain levels of compliance with financial covenants. Due to the cessation of LIBOR, the Company signed a LIBOR transition amendment on June 26, 2023, agreeing to replace LIBOR with the Secured Overnight Funding Rate (“SOFR”). In order to make SOFR similar to LIBOR in terms of the overall interest rate being earned by the

Table of Contents

lenders under the Credit Agreement, a Credit Spread Adjustment (“CSA”) is added to the SOFR. The CSA varied depending on the selected interest period.

The effective interest rate was 8.67% and 4.60% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 for the term loan debt. As discussed previously, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to mitigate the interest risk.

Interest incurred on the Credit Agreement with respect to the term loan amounted to $6,844, $4,366, $19,283, and $10,344 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Accrued interest payable on the Credit Agreement with respect to the term loan amounted to $2,340 and $130 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is included in accrued expenses. Interest incurred on the Credit Agreement with respect to the revolving line of credit was $65, $65, $193, and $193 for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. There was $1 and $66 accrued interest payable on the revolving line of credit at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Long-term debt consists of the following:

	(In thousands)
Maturities	$	755	$	3,020	$	3,020	$	288,410	$	295,205

The Credit Agreement requires the Company to make an annual mandatory prepayment as it relates to the Company’s Excess Cash Flow calculation. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company was not required to make a mandatory prepayment on the term loan. For the Credit Agreement, the Company is required to make a quarterly principal payment of $755 on the term loan each quarter.

The fair values of the Company’s variable interest term loan and revolving line of credit are not significantly different than their carrying value because the interest rates on these instruments are subject to change with market interest rates.

8. Leases

The Company leases certain office facilities and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases with remaining terms from one to six years. The Company also had finance leases until the first quarter of this year.

Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are included in other assets while finance lease ROU assets are included in "property and equipment, net" in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. With respect to operating lease liabilities, current operating lease liabilities are included in other current liabilities and non-current operating lease liabilities are included in long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Current finance lease liabilities are included in other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. At September 30, 2023, the weighted average remaining lease terms were 3.44 years for operating leases; the weighted average discount rate was 3.38% for operating leases. For additional information on the Company's leases, see Note 14 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report.

10. Equity-Based Compensation

The Company’s equity-based compensation programs are intended to attract, retain and provide incentives for employees, officers and directors. The Company has the following equity-based compensation plans and programs.

Restricted Stock

The majority of the Company’s restricted stock awarded to its employees was originally issued on December 10, 2020 in exchange for the Class B Profits Interest Unit (the “Class B Units”) of EQT, which was the former parent of the Company.

Share-based compensation for the restricted stock exchanged for the time-based Class B Units is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally five years. Share-based compensation for the restricted stock exchanged for the performance-based Class B Units is recognized using the accelerated attribution approach.

In 2021, the Company granted 87,127 replacement shares of restricted stock in connection with the Pinnacle acquisition under which equity-based awards are outstanding. The fair value of the restricted stock awarded was initially based on the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant, then adjusted for time restrictions due to unregistered shares and lack of marketability. Total grant date fair value was $2,762. The restricted stock issued in 2021 generally has a three-year vesting period except for one holder whose shares vest equally on a monthly basis for two years.

___________________________________

•The number of the restricted stock vested includes 5,430 shares that were withheld on behalf of employees to satisfy the statutory tax withholding requirements.

Equity-based compensation expenses (income) related to the restricted stock exchanged for performance-based Class B Units were $333, $(319), $497, and $3,758 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. At September 30, 2023, the total unrecognized equity-based compensation expense related to outstanding restricted stock recognized using the accelerated attribution approach was $1,237, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 16.2 months.

Equity-based compensation expenses related to the restricted stock exchanged for time-based Class B Units were $252, $1,174, $1,062, and $2,705 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. At September 30, 2023, the total unrecognized equity-based compensation expense related to outstanding restricted stock recognized using the straight-line attribution approach was $1,421, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 19.7 months.

Equity-based employee compensation expense related to the time-based restricted stock for the Pinnacle acquisition was $292, $292, $877, and $877 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. At September 30, 2023, the total unrecognized equity-based compensation expenses related to outstanding restricted stock recognized using the straight-line attribution approach was $425, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 12 months.

2020 Incentive Plan

In order to align the Company’s equity compensation program with public company practices, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted and stockholders approved the 2020 Incentive Plan. The 2020 Incentive Plan allows for grants of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and performance stock units (“PSUs”) to employees, directors, officers, and consultants or advisors of the Company. The 2020 Incentive Plan allows for 20,000,000 shares (the “plan share reserve”) of common stock to be issued. No more than the number of shares of common stock equal to the plan share reserve may be issued in the aggregate pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options. The maximum number of shares of common stock granted during a single fiscal year to any non-employee director, taken together with any cash fees paid to such non-employee director during the fiscal year, may not exceed $1,000,000 in total value, except for certain awards made to a non-executive chair of our Board of Directors.

Restricted Stock Units ("RSU")

RSUs represent the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock at a specified date in the future. The fair value of the RSUs is based on the fair value of the underlying shares on the date of grant.

Table of Contents

A summary of the Company’s RSU activity is as follows:


	UNITS	WEIGHTED- AVERAGE GRANT DATE FAIR VALUE
Non-vested RSUs as of December 31, 2022	2,005,095	$	24.71
Granted*	1,626,102	23.93
Vested**	(796,494)	25.24
Forfeited	(304,923)	23.52
Non-vested RSUs as of September 30, 2023	2,529,780	$	24.18

___________________________________

*The majority shares granted during 2023 were issued on April 1, 2023 under the 2020 Incentive Plan.

**The number of the RSUs vested includes 275,516 shares that were withheld on behalf of employees to satisfy the statutory tax withholding requirements. The vested shares included 9,324 shares vested but deferred in connection with our director deferral plan.

Equity-based compensation expenses related to the RSUs were $7,260, $5,312, $19,397, and $14,538 for three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. At September 30, 2023, the total unrecognized equity-based compensation expense related to outstanding RSUs was $47,479, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 23.9 months.

Performance Stock Units ("PSU")

PSUs granted in April 2021, 2022, and 2023 were issued under the 2020 Incentive Plan and represent the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock at a specified date in the future based on the satisfaction of various service conditions and the achievement of certain performance thresholds for individual PSU plans including year over year revenue growth, unlevered free cash flow growth, annual revenue, and annual EBITDA. The PSUs granted in 2023 also contain a market condition.

Share-based compensation for the PSUs is only recognized to the extent a threshold is probable of being achieved and is recognized using the accelerated attribution approach. The Company will continue to assess the probability of each condition being achieved at each reporting period to determine whether and when to recognize compensation cost.

A summary of the Company’s PSU activity for the period ended September 30, 2023 is as follows:


	UNITS	WEIGHTED- AVERAGE GRANT DATE FAIR VALUE
Non-vested PSUs as of December 31, 2022	654,308	$	23.99
Granted	484,885	27.00
Vested	(18,437)	24.83
Forfeited	(94,054)	25.71
Non-vested PSUs as of September 30, 2023	1,026,702	$	25.24

11. Commitments and Contingencies

Contingent consideration

In connection with the Vyasa and DIDB acquisitions, the Company is required to pay additional consideration if the acquired businesses achieve certain eligible revenue thresholds for certain periods. The maximum contingent considerations for Vyasa and DIDB to be earned are $60,000 and $2,000, respectively. The fair value of the contingent consideration was $31,919 and $19,813 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Legal proceedings

The Company does not have any pending or threatened litigation which, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2023.

Assurance-type warranty

The Company includes an assurance commitment warranting that the application software products will perform in accordance with written user documentation and the agreements negotiated with customers. Since the Company does not customize its application software, warranty costs have historically been insignificant and expensed as incurred.

For information related to commitments for future minimum lease payments, please see Note 8 – Leases.

12. Segment Data

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The Company has determined that its chief executive officer is its CODM. The Company manages its operations as a single segment for the purposes of assessing and making operating decisions. The Company’s CODM allocates resources and assesses performance based upon financial information at the consolidated level. Since the Company operates in one operating segment, all required financial segment information can be found in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

___________________________________

(1) Revenue is attributable to the countries based on the location of the customer.

13. Income Taxes

The Company generally records its interim tax provision based upon a projection of the Company's estimated annual effective tax rate ("EAETR"). This EAETR is applied to the year-to-date consolidated pre-tax income to determine the interim provisions for income taxes before discrete items. The effective tax rate ("ETR") each period is impacted by a number of factors, including the relative mix of domestic and international earnings, permanent differences adjustments to the valuation allowances, and discrete items. The currently forecasted ETR may vary from the actual year-end due to the changes in these factors.

The Company's global ETR for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were 9%, 54%, (0.3)%, and 63%, respectively, including discrete tax items. The current year decrease in the ETR was principally due to the combined effect of the overall decrease in pre-tax book income, the impact of non-deductible items, and the tax effect of certain discrete items.

14. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares and dilutive potential common shares during the period.

We intend the discussion of our financial condition and results of operations that follows to provide information that will assist the reader in understanding our condensed consolidated financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from period to period, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affect our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Executive Overview

We accelerate medicines to patients using biosimulation software, technology, and services to transform traditional drug discovery and development. Biosimulation is a powerful technology used to conduct virtual trials using virtual patients to predict how drugs behave in different individuals. Biopharmaceutical companies use our proprietary biosimulation software throughout drug discovery and development to inform critical decisions that not only save significant time and money but also advance drug safety and efficacy, improving millions of lives each year.

As a global leader in biosimulation based on 2022 revenue, we provide an integrated, end-to-end platform used by more than 2,300 clients including biopharmaceutical companies, regulatory agencies and academic institutions across 70 countries, including 39 of the top 40 biopharmaceutical companies by research and development spend in 2021. Since 2014, customers who use our biosimulation software and technology-driven services have received 90% of all new drug approvals by the FDA. Moreover, 20 global regulatory authorities license our biosimulation software to independently analyze, verify, and review regulatory submissions, including the FDA, Health Canada, Japan’s Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency, and UK’s Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency.

We build our biosimulation technology on first principles of biology, chemistry, and pharmacology with proprietary mathematical algorithms that model how medicines and diseases behave in the body. For over two decades, we have honed and validated our biosimulation technology with an abundance of data from scientific literature, lab research, and preclinical and clinical studies. Many of our solutions are underpinned by artificial intelligence (machine learning) and SaaS-based value communication tools. In turn, our customers use biosimulation to conduct virtual trials to answer critical questions, such as: What will be the human response to a drug based on preclinical data? How will other drugs interfere with this new drug? What is a safe and efficacious dose for children, the elderly, or patients with pre-existing conditions? Virtual trials may be used to optimize dosing on populations that are otherwise difficult to study for ethical or logistical reasons, such as infants, pregnant women, the elderly, and cancer patients.

Biosimulation results need to be incorporated into regulatory documents for compelling submissions. Accordingly, we provide regulatory science and market access solutions and integrate them with biosimulation so that our customers can navigate the complex and evolving regulatory landscape and maximize their chances of approval. Our differentiated regulatory services are powered by submissions management software and natural language processing for scalability and speed, allowing us to deliver more than 300 regulatory submissions over the past five years. Our team of regulatory professionals has extensive experience applying industry guidelines and global regulatory requirements.

With continued innovation in and adoption of our biosimulation software, technology, and services, we believe more biopharmaceutical companies worldwide will leverage more of our end-to-end platform to reduce cost, accelerate speed to market, and ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines for all patients.

Public Offerings and Other Key Shareholders Transactions

On August 11, 2022, the Company completed a secondary public offering in which certain selling stockholders, including EQT, sold 7,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company did not offer any common stock in this transaction and did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. The Company incurred costs of $0.6 million, recorded in general and administrative expenses, in relation to the secondary public offering.

On December 8, 2022, Arsenal acquired an aggregate of 29,954,521 shares of our common stock from EQT at a price of $15.00 per share. In connection with this transaction, we entered into (i) a letter agreement, effective December 8, 2022, with Arsenal providing that, subject to certain exceptions, Arsenal is prohibited from transferring the acquired shares until December 8, 2024; (ii) a stockholders agreement with Arsenal, effective December 8, 2022, which, among other things, grants certain conditional rights to Arsenal to nominate up to two directors to our Board; and (iii) a Registration Rights Agreement, which contains provisions that entitle Arsenal to certain rights to have their securities registered by the Company under the Securities Act.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

We believe that the growth of and future success of our business depends on many factors. While each of these factors presents significant opportunities for our business, they also pose important challenges that we must successfully address to sustain our growth and improve results of operations.

Customer Retention and Expansion

Our future operating results depend, in part, on our ability to successfully enter new markets, increase our customer base, and retain and expand our relationships with existing customers. We monitor two key performance indicators to evaluate retention and expansion: new bookings and renewal rates.

•Bookings: Our new bookings represent the estimated annual contract value of a signed contract or purchase order where there is sufficient or reasonable certainty about the customer’s ability and intent to fund and commence the software and/or services. Bookings vary from period to period depending on numerous factors, including the overall health of the biopharmaceutical industry, regulatory developments, industry consolidation, and sales performance. Bookings have varied and will continue to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and from year to year.

•Renewal Rates: Our renewal rates measure the percentage of software customers who renew their licenses or subscriptions at the end of the license or subscription periods. The renewal rate is based on revenues and excludes the effect of price increases or expansions.

The table below summarizes our quarterly bookings and renewal rate trends:


	2023									2022
	Q1			Q2			Q3			Q1			Q2			Q3
	(in millions)
Bookings	$	112.7		$	85.9		$	84.8		$	108.5		$	100.3		$	79.8

Investments in Growth

We have invested and intend to continue to invest in expanding the breadth and depth of our solutions, including through acquisitions and international expansion. We expect to continue to invest in (i) scientific talent to expand our ability to deliver solutions across the drug development spectrum; (ii) sales and marketing to promote our solutions to new and existing customers and in existing and expanded geographies; (iii) research and development to support existing solutions and innovate new technology; (iv) other operational and administrative functions to support our expected growth; and (v) complementary business. We expect that our headcount and our total operating expenses will continue to increase over time.

Our Operating Environment

The acceptance of model-informed biopharmaceutical discovery and development by regulatory authorities affects the demand for our products and services. Support for the use of biosimulation in discovery and development from regulatory bodies, such as the FDA and EMA, has been critical to its rapid adoption by the biopharmaceutical industry. There has been a steady increase in the recognition by regulatory and academic institutions of the role that modeling and simulation can play in the biopharmaceutical development and approval process, as demonstrated by new regulations and guidance documents describing and encouraging the use of modeling and simulation in the biopharmaceutical discovery, development, testing, and approval process, which has directly led to an increase in the demand for our services. Changes in government or regulatory policy, or a reversal in the trend toward increasing the acceptance of and reliance upon in silico data in the drug approval process, could decrease the demand for our products and services or lead regulatory authorities to cease use of, or recommend against the use of, our products and services.

Governmental agencies throughout the world, but particularly in the United States where the majority of our customers are based, strictly regulate the biopharmaceutical development process. Our business involves helping biopharmaceutical companies strategically and tactically navigate the regulatory approval process. New or amended regulations are expected to result in higher regulatory standards and often additional revenues for companies that service these industries. However, some changes in regulations, such as a relaxation in regulatory requirements or the introduction of streamlined or expedited approval procedures, or an increase in regulatory requirements that we have difficulty satisfying or that make our regulatory strategy services less competitive, could eliminate or substantially reduce the demand for our regulatory services.

Competition

The market for our biosimulation products and related services for the biopharmaceutical industry is competitive and highly fragmented. In biosimulation software, we compete with other scientific software providers, technology companies, in-house development by biopharmaceutical companies, and certain open source solutions. In the technology-driven services market, we compete with specialized companies, in-house teams at biopharmaceutical companies, and academic and government institutions. In some standard biosimulation services, and in regulatory and market access, we also compete with contract research organizations, who may also offer more traditional methods of drug development and clinical trial design that are used in lieu of biosimulation. Some of our competitors and potential competitors have longer operating histories in certain segments of our industry than we do and could have greater financial, technical, marketing, R&D, and other resources. Some of our competitors offer products and services directed at more specific markets than those we target, enabling these competitors to focus a greater proportion of their efforts and resources on those specific markets. Some competing products are developed and made available at a lower cost by government organizations and academic institutions, and these entities may be able to devote substantial resources to product development. Some clinical research organizations or technology companies may decide to enter into or expand their offerings in the biosimulation area, whether through acquisition or internal development. We also face competition from open source software initiatives, in which developers provide software and intellectual property free of charge, such as R and PK-Sim software. In addition, some of our customers spend significant internal resources in order to develop their own solutions.

Macroeconomic challenges

Uncertain macroeconomic conditions, including higher inflation, rising interest rates and instability in the financial system, geopolitical conflicts, and the residual effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, may pose challenges to our business. We believe that any impacts these conditions may have on our business would be transitory and that we are well-equipped to manage them going forward.

Non-GAAP Measures

Management uses various financial metrics, including total revenues, income from operations, net income, and certain metrics that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP, such as adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share, to measure and assess the performance of our business, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to make certain compensation decisions, and to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. We believe that presentation of the GAAP and the non-GAAP metrics in this filing will aid investors in understanding our business.

Management measures operating performance based on adjusted EBITDA defined for a particular period as net income (loss) excluding interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, intangible asset amortization, equity-based compensation expense, goodwill impairments, change in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition and integration expense, and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Management also measures operating performance based on adjusted net income defined for a particular period as net income (loss) excluding, equity-based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, goodwill impairments, change in fair value of contingent consideration, acquisition and integration expense, and other items not indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Further, management measures operating performance based on adjusted diluted earnings per share defined for a particular period as adjusted net income divided by the weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding.

We believe adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share are helpful to investors, analysts, and other interested parties because they can assist in providing a more consistent and comparable overview of our operations across our historical periods. In addition, these measures are frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate and assess performance.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP measures and are presented for supplemental purposes only and should not be considered as an alternative or substitute to financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share have certain limitations in that they do not include the impact of certain expenses that are reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) that are necessary to run our business. Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may not use these measures and may calculate both differently than as presented, limiting the usefulness as a comparative measure.

•Provision for (Benefit from) Income Taxes. Provision for (benefit from) income taxes consists of U.S. federal and state income taxes and income taxes in certain foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct business. We expect income tax expense to increase over time as the Company continues to grow more profitable.

Acquisitions

Since our inception, and as of September 30, 2023, we have completed 18 acquisitions, of which 13 have included software or technology. Details of acquisitions that have closed since the beginning of fiscal year 2022 are provided below. We continually seek and assess a range of highly focused opportunities in our immediately addressable market and in related adjacent markets, whether through acquisitions, licenses, or partnerships.

Integrated Nonclinical Development Solutions, Inc.

On January 3, 2022, we completed the acquisition of INDS for a total consideration of $8.0 million, which qualified as a business combination. The business combination was not significant to our consolidated financial statements. Based on the purchase price allocation, approximately $2.4 million, $1.0 million, $0.1 million, and $2.9 million of the purchase price were assigned to customer relationships, developed technology, non-compete agreements, and goodwill, respectively.

Vyasa Analytics, LLC

On December 28, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Vyasa, a company that provides an AI-powered, scalable deep learning software and analytics platform for organizations within healthcare and life sciences, higher education and state and local governments for total consideration of $29.3 million. The business combination was not significant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Based on the Company’s purchase price allocation, approximately $11.4 million, $1.5 million, $0.1 million, $0.1 million and $16.6 million of the purchase price were assigned to developed technology, customer relationships, trademarks, non-compete agreements and goodwill, respectively.

The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated to be $19.8 million as of the acquisition date. The contingent consideration was classified as a liability and included in accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, which is remeasured on a recurring basis at fair value for each reporting period. Any changes in the fair value of these contingent liabilities are included in the earnings in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). At September 30, 2023, the contingent consideration was remeasured to $31.5 million, resulting in $11.7 million adjustment to fair value.

Drug Interaction Solutions, University of Washington ("DIDB")

On June 20, 2023, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with the University of Washington and completed the acquisition of Drug Interaction Solutions, including the Drug Interaction Database and related products, from the University of Washington for total estimated consideration of $8.3 million. The business combination was not significant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The total estimated consideration includes a portion of contingent consideration that is payable over the next two years in cash, not to exceed $2.0 million. Future payments of contingent consideration are based on eligible revenue for the period from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2025. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated to be $0.8 million as of the acquisition date. At September 30, 2023, the contingent consideration was remeasured to $0.4 million, resulting in a negative fair value adjustment of $0.4 million and recorded in general and administrative (“G&A”) on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Based on the Company’s preliminary purchase price allocation, approximately $0.3 million, $5.6 million, $0.4 million, and $2.3 million of the purchase price were assigned to trademarks, database content/technology, customer relationships and goodwill, respectively. The current purchase price allocation is preliminary. Any adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation identified during the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the acquisition date, will be accounted for prospectively.

For more information about our acquisitions, see Note 5. “Acquisitions” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

We have included the results of operations of acquired companies in our condensed consolidated results of operations from the date of their respective acquisitions, which impacts the comparability of our results of operations when comparing results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 to the three and nine months ended at September 30, 2022.

Total revenues	$	266,327	$	249,011	$	17,316	7	%

Revenues increased $17.3 million, or 7%, to $266.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in revenues was primarily due to growth in our technology-driven services and software product offerings from strong demand within existing customers, client expansions, and new customers. The increase was partially offset by the negative impact on our revenue from the fluctuation of foreign currency exchange rates.

Software revenues increased $11.7 million, or 14%, to $98.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. The overall growth is primarily attributable to growth in strong demand within existing customers, new product introductions, and expanding relationships with customers.

Services revenues increased $5.6 million, or 3%, to $168.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. The growth in overall services revenue is primarily attributable to continued growth in biosimulation. The increase was partially offset by the decline in regulatory revenues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have consistently generated positive cash flow from operations, providing $59.4 million and $57.1 million as a source of funds for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our additional liquidity comes from several sources: maintaining adequate balances of cash and cash equivalents, issuing common stock, and accessing credit facilities and revolving lines of credit. The following table provides a summary of the major sources of liquidity for the nine and twelve months periods ended at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

(c) Available borrowings under the revolving lines of credits as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were reduced by $0.1 million and $0.1 million standby letters of credit issued to a landlord in lieu of a security deposit in addition to any outstanding borrowings.

Our material cash requirements from known contractual obligations are principal and interest payments of long-term debt. We also have future cash obligations of $12.7 million for lease contracts, which have remaining terms of one to six years.

The principal amount of long-term debt outstanding as of September 30, 2023 matures in the following years:

We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet current and future needs. We believe our existing sources of liquidity will be sufficient to meet our working capital, capital expenditures, and contractual obligations for the foreseeable future. Our expected primary uses on a short-term and long-term basis are for repayment of debt, interest payments, working capital, capital expenditures, geographic or service offering expansion, acquisitions, investments, and other general corporate purposes. We believe we will meet short and longer-term expected future cash requirements and obligations through a combination of cash flows from operating activities, available cash balances, and potential future equity or debt transactions.

Our future capital requirements, however, will depend on many factors, including funding for potential acquisitions, investments, and other growth and strategic opportunities, which could increase our cash requirements. While we believe we have, and will be able to generate, sufficient liquidity to fund our operations for the foreseeable future, our sources of liquidity could be affected by factors described under “Risk Factors” in our 2022 Annual Report.

Cash Flows

Cash paid for interest	$	13,668	$	12,310

Operating Activities

Our cash flows from operating activities primarily include net income adjusted for (i) non-cash items included in net income, such as provisions for credit losses, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, deferred taxes and other non-cash items and (ii) changes in the balances of operating assets and liabilities. Net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2023 was $59.4 million, compared to $57.1 million in the same period of 2022. The $2.4 million increase in cash from operating activities was primarily due to higher cash collections from accounts receivable, reduced cash payments for accounts payable and accrued expenses, and partially offset by increased cash utilization for obtaining prepaid and other assets, as well as higher payments for taxes and interest.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities in the first nine months of 2023 was $18.5 million, an increase of $3.3 million, compared to $15.2 million in the same period of 2022. The change in investing activities was primarily due to a $1.7 million increase in cash payments in connection with business acquisitions, and a $1.9 million increase in cash utilized in capitalized development costs, partially offset by a $0.4 million decrease in cash utilized in capital expenditures to support our growth.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities in the first nine months of 2023 was $8.2 million, compared to $6.4 million cash used in the same period of 2022. The $1.8 million decrease in cash flow in financing activities was primarily due to a $3.1 million increase in cash payments in connection with share awards vested and withheld for payroll tax, partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in cash payments on the financing component of the interest rate swap.

Indebtedness

We have been a party to a Credit Agreement since August 2017 that provided for a senior secured term loan and commitments under a revolving credit facility. The Company and the lenders modified the Credit Agreement on June 17, 2021, which provides for, among other things, (i) the extension of the termination date applicable to the revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement to August 2025, (ii) the extension of the maturity date applicable to the term loans under the Credit Agreement to August 2026, and (iii) an increase of approximately $80,000 in commitments available under the revolving line of credit (resulting in an aggregate amount of commitments of $100,000). The term loan under the modified Credit Agreement has substantially the same terms as the existing term loans and revolving credit commitments. The Credit Agreement is collateralized by substantially all U.S. assets and stock pledges for the non-U.S. subsidiaries and contains various financial and nonfinancial covenants.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement were subject to a variable interest rate at LIBOR plus a margin. The applicable margins were based on achieving certain levels of compliance with financial covenants. We signed a LIBOR transition amendment on June 26, 2023 to adopt a new benchmark interest rate, SOFR, determined in accordance with the Credit Agreement to replace LIBOR. In order to make SOFR similar to LIBOR in terms of the overall interest rate being earned by the lenders under the Credit Agreement, a Credit Spread Adjustment (“CSA”) is added to the SOFR. The CSA varied depending on the selected interest period.

Additionally, we are obligated to pay under the revolving credit facility (i) a commitment fee of between 0.50% and 0.25% per annum of the unused amount of the revolving credit facility, depending on the applicable first lien leverage ratio, (ii) customary letter of credit issuance and participation fees, and (iii) other customary fees and expenses of the letter of credit issuers.

All obligations under the Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by our wholly owned direct and indirect subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions. All obligations under the Credit Agreement, and the guarantees of those obligations, are secured on a first lien basis, subject to certain exceptions, by substantially all of our assets and the assets of the other guarantors.

As of September 30, 2023, we had $295.2 million of outstanding borrowings on the term loan, and $100.0 million of availability under the revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement, and outstanding letters of credit of $0.1 million under the Credit Agreement.

As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the covenants of the Credit Agreement.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 from those disclosed in our 2022 Annual Report, except for payments made in the ordinary course of business.

Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense of $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and income tax expense of $9.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

As of September 30, 2023, we had federal and state NOLs of approximately $1.8 million and $0.05 million, respectively, which are available to reduce future taxable income and expire between 2024 and 2036 and 2029 and 2040, respectively. We had federal and state R&D tax credit carryforwards of approximately $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, to offset future income taxes, which expire between 2025 and 2042. We also had foreign tax credits of approximately $10.6 million, which will start to expire in 2027. These carryforwards that may be utilized in a future period may be subject to limitations based upon changes in the ownership of our stock in a future period. Additionally, we carried forward foreign NOLs of approximately $65.8 million which will start to expire in 2023, foreign research and development credits of $0.3 million which expire in 2029, and Canadian investment tax credits of approximately $3.5 million which expire between 2030 and 2040. Our carryforwards are subject to review and possible adjustment by the appropriate taxing authorities.

As required by ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, our management has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of our deferred tax assets, which are composed principally of NOL carryforwards, Section 174

Table of Contents

carryforwards, investment tax credit carryforward, and foreign tax credit carryforwards. Management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not realize the benefits of foreign tax credit carryforwards. At the foreign subsidiaries, management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not realize the benefits of certain NOL carryforwards. As a result, a valuation allowance of $25.7 million is recorded at December 31, 2022. As of September 30, 2023, the valuation allowance remained unchanged from December 31, 2022.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the periods presented, we did not have, and currently do not have, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined under the rules and regulations of the SEC, that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on our current or future financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in our audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2022 Annual Report. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We monitor estimates and assumptions on a continuous basis and update these estimates and assumptions as facts and circumstances change and new information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions. We discussed the accounting policies that we believe are most critical to the portrayal of our results of operations and financial condition and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our 2022 Annual Report. There were no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards

We have reviewed all recently issued standards and have determined that, other than as disclosed in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, such standards will not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or do not otherwise apply to our operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For information regarding our exposure to certain market risks, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” in Part II, Item 7A of the Company’s 2022 Annual Report. There were no material changes to the Company’s market risk exposure during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have

concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2023.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the period ended September 30, 2023, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f)) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

There have been no material changes to our legal proceedings as previously disclosed in our 2022 Annual Report.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except as described below, there have been no significant changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2022 Annual Report that we believe are material to our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or growth prospects.

Adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, including events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults or non-performance by financial institutions or transactional counterparties, could impair our ability or our customers’ ability to access existing cash, cash equivalents and investments, which could negatively impact the timely payment to key vendors and others or timely receipt of accounts payable from customers.

Events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions, transactional counterparties or other companies in the financial services industry or the financial services industry generally or concerns or rumors about any events of these kinds or other similar risks, have in the past and may in the future lead to market-wide liquidity problems. For example, on March 10, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) was placed into receivership with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”), which resulted in all funds held at SVB being temporarily inaccessible by SVB’s customers. Although the Company did not hold cash deposits or securities at SVB if other banks and financial institutions with which we have banking relationships are placed into receivership or go bankrupt in the future, we may not be able to access our current cash, cash equivalents, and investments and we may lose some or all of them, to the extent that those funds are not insured or otherwise protected by the FDIC. We maintain substantially all of our cash and cash equivalents in accounts with U.S. and multi-national financial institutions, and our deposits at these institutions exceed insured limits. In addition, investor concerns regarding the U.S. or international financial systems could result in less favorable commercial financing terms, including higher interest rates or costs and tighter financial and operating covenants, or systemic limitations on access to credit and liquidity sources, thereby making it more difficult for us to acquire financing on acceptable terms or at all. Our customers are also exposed to this same risk, and any delay in our customer's ability to access their cash and cash equivalents to make timely payments to us could have a materially negative impact on our operations and necessitate the need for additional capital sooner than anticipated. Any of these the foregoing could have material adverse impacts on our liquidity and our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Section 4. Compensation.

During the Term of Employment, Executive shall be entitled to the following compensation:

(a)Base Salary. Executive shall be paid an annualized Base Salary (the “Base Salary”), payable in accordance with the regular payroll practices of the Company, of $575,000, as may be adjusted from time to time in writing by the Compensation Committee.

(b)Annual Bonus. Executive shall be eligible for an annual incentive bonus award determined by the Compensation Committee in respect of each fiscal year during the Term of Employment (the “Annual Bonus”). The target Annual Bonus for each fiscal year shall be 50% of Base Salary (the “Target Annual Bonus”), with the actual Annual Bonus payable being based upon the level of achievement of annual Company and individual performance objectives for such fiscal year, as determined by the Board (or Compensation Committee) in consultation with Executive. The Annual Bonus shall otherwise be subject to the terms and conditions of the annual bonus plan adopted by the Board or the Compensation Committee, if any, under which bonuses are generally payable to senior executives of the Company, as in effect from time to time. The Annual Bonus shall be paid in cash to Executive at the same time as annual bonuses are generally payable to other senior executives of the Company, subject to Executive’s continuous employment through the annual bonus payment date (subject to Section 7 below). The parties affirm that Executive shall be eligible to receive the Annual Bonus for the full fiscal year of 2023, provided that he remains employed through the end of the year, and subject to the other conditions set forth in this clause.

(c)Sign-on Bonus. Executive will receive a one-time sign-on bonus in the gross amount of $200,000 on Executive’s first regularly scheduled pay date. The sign-on bonus will be paid as a lump sum, less applicable withholdings. By receiving this sign-on bonus, Executive agrees that if Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause during the first twelve months of employment, or Executive leaves the Company for any reason other than Good Reason, Executive will repay 1/12th of the gross amount for each full month of service remaining in such 12-month period.

In connection with the commencement of Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive shall be entitled to participate in and receive grants under the Company 2020 Equity Plan, pursuant to the terms of such plan, and the applicable equity award agreements (the “Equity Documents”).

On your Start Date, you will also receive a one-time equity award with a value of $650,000, in the form of RSUs, with a vesting schedule of 50% after 12 months of employment and 50% after 24 months of employment.


-3-

(e)Payment of Unpaid Annual Bonus from Prior Employer. Executive will be paid the sum of $235,750.00, representing an amount equal to the 2022 annual bonus owed but unpaid to Executive by his prior employer (“Prior Employer Bonus”). The Prior Employer Bonus will be paid in a lump sum, less applicable withholdings prior to the end of fiscal year 2023. Subject to the limitation below, the Company will also pay for any reasonable out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses incurred in seeking to recover the unpaid annual bonus from Executive’s prior employer (“Costs”). If Executive ultimately receives any payment from his prior employer relating to the unpaid annual bonus, including but not limited to any attorney’s fees, costs, or penalties, whether through a settlement agreement, judgment or otherwise, Executive shall promptly reimburse the Company up to the amount of the Prior Employer Bonus and Costs paid by the Company. Any amounts recovered by Executive from the prior employer in excess of the Prior Employer Bonus and Costs shall be retained by Executive. The Company may decide at any time in its sole discretion, upon notice to the Executive, that it will not reimburse Executive for any new Costs incurred in seeking payment from his prior employer. Following such notice, Executive may decide to continue to pursue legal action against his prior employer at his sole cost and expense, and Executive shall be entitled to retain any such cost and expense from any amounts ultimately collected from his prior employer before reimbursing Employer for any Prior Employer Bonus or Costs paid by the Company.

Section 5. Employee Benefits.

Executive shall also be entitled to the same number of holidays, vacation days, and sick days, as well as any other benefits, in each case as are generally allowed to senior executives of the Company in accordance with the Company policy as in effect from time to time. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to limit the Company’s ability to amend, suspend, or terminate any employee benefit plan or policy at any time, and the right to do so is expressly reserved.

Section 6. Reimbursement of Expenses.

Executive is authorized to incur reasonable business expenses in carrying out his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, and the Company shall promptly reimburse him for all such reasonable business expenses, subject to documentation in accordance with the Company’s policy, as in effect from time to time.

Section 7. Termination of Employment.

(a)General. The Term of Employment, and Executive’s employment hereunder, shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) Executive’s death, (ii) a termination by reason of a Disability, (iii) a termination by the Company with or without Cause, and (iv) a termination by Executive with or without Good Reason. Except as otherwise expressly required by law (e.g., COBRA) or as specifically provided herein, all of Executive’s rights to Base Salary, Annual Bonus, employee benefits and other compensatory amounts hereunder (if any) shall cease upon the termination of Executive’s employment hereunder.

(b)Deemed Resignation. Upon any termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, except as may otherwise be requested by the Company in writing and agreed upon in writing by Executive, Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from any and all directorships, committee memberships, and any other positions Executive holds with the Company or any other member of the Company Group.

(c)Termination Due to Death or Disability. Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon his death. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment immediately upon the occurrence of a Disability, such termination to be effective upon Executive’s receipt of written notice of such termination. Upon Executive’s death or in the event that Executive’s employment is terminated due to his Disability, Executive or his estate or his beneficiaries, as the case may be, shall be entitled to:

(i)The Accrued Obligations; and


-4-

(ii)Any unpaid Annual Bonus in respect of the most recently completed fiscal year that ended prior to the date of such termination, which amount shall be paid at such time annual bonuses are paid to other senior executives of the Company (the “Prior Year Bonus Amount”).

Following Executive’s death or a termination of Executive’s employment by reason of a Disability, except as set forth in this Section 7(c), Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.

(d)Termination by the Company for Cause.

(i)The Company may terminate Executive’s employment at any time for Cause, effective upon delivery to Executive of written notice of such termination; provided, however, that with respect to any Cause termination relying on clause (i), (ii), (vi) or (vii) of the definition of Cause, to the extent that such act or acts or failure or failures to act are curable, Executive shall be given not less than twenty (20) days’ written notice by the Company of the Company’s intention to terminate him for Cause, such notice to state in detail the particular act or acts or failure or failures to act that constitute the grounds on which the proposed termination for Cause is based, and such termination shall be effective at the expiration of such twenty (20) day notice period unless Executive has fully cured such act or acts or failure or failures to act that give rise to Cause during such period.

(ii) In the event that the Company terminates Executive’s employment for Cause, he shall be entitled only to the Accrued Obligations. Following such

termination of Executive’s employment for Cause, except as set forth in this Section 7(d)(ii), Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.

(j)Termination by the Company without Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment at any time without Cause by giving Executive at least two weeks’ written notice of such termination. In the event that Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (other than due to death or Disability), Executive shall be entitled to:

(i)the Accrued Obligations;

(ii)the Prior Year Bonus Amount;

(iii)the Executive’s Target Annual Bonus for the calendar year in which the Termination occurs (“Current Year”), multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days during the Current Year that the Executive is employed by the Company and the denominator of which is 365; and

(iv)an amount equal to the prorated Base Salary during the Severance Term, such amount to be paid in substantially equal payments during the Severance Term, and payable in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payments and benefits described in clauses (iii) and (iv) above shall immediately terminate, and the Company shall have no further obligations to Executive with respect thereto, in the event that Executive breaches the Restrictive Covenants. Following such termination of Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause, except as set forth in this Section 7(e), Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Executive’s sole and exclusive remedy upon a termination of employment by the Company without Cause shall be receipt of the Severance Benefits.

(k)Termination by Executive with Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment with Good Reason by providing the Company thirty (30) days’ written notice setting forth in reasonable specificity the event that constitutes Good Reason, which written notice, to be effective, must


-5-

be provided to the Company within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of such event (or the date the Executive became aware of such event, if later). During such thirty (30) notice period, the Company shall have a cure right (if curable), and if not cured within such period, Executive’s termination will be effective upon the expiration of such cure period, and Executive shall be entitled to the same payments and benefits as provided in Section 7(e) hereof for a termination by the Company without Cause, subject to the same conditions on payment and benefits as described in Section 7(e) hereof. Following such termination of Executive’s employment by Executive with Good Reason, except as set forth in this Section 7(f), Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Executive’s sole and exclusive remedy upon a termination of employment with Good Reason shall be receipt of the Severance Benefits.

(l)Termination by Executive without Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment without Good Reason by providing the Company sixty (60) days’ written notice of such termination. In the event of a termination of employment by Executive under this Section 7(g), Executive shall be entitled only to the Accrued Obligations. In the event of termination of Executive’s employment under this Section 7(g), the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, by written notice accelerate such date of termination without changing the characterization of such termination as a termination by Executive without Good Reason. Following such termination of Executive’s employment by Executive without Good Reason, except as set forth in this Section 7(g), Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.

(m)Release. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the payment of any amount or provision of any benefit pursuant to subsection (e) or (f) of this Section 7 (collectively, the “Severance Benefits”), other than the Accrued Obligations, shall be conditioned upon Executive’s execution, delivery to the Company, and non-revocation of the Release of Claims (and the expiration of any revocation period contained in such Release of Claims) within twenty-one days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment hereunder (the “Release Execution Period”). If Executive fails to execute the Release of Claims in such a timely manner so as to permit any revocation period to expire prior to the end of such twenty-one day period, or timely revokes his acceptance of such release following its execution, Executive shall not be entitled to any of the Severance Benefits. No portion of the Severance Benefits (other than Accrued Obligations) shall be paid until the Release has become effective and all such amounts shall commence to be paid on the first regular payroll date of the Company after the Release has become effective; provided, that, if the Release Execution Period overlaps two calendar years, the first payment shall not be made sooner than the first day of the second year, and shall include any missed payments.

Section 8. Certain Payments.

In the event that (i) Executive is entitled to receive any payment, benefit or distribution of any type to or for the benefit of Executive, whether paid or payable, provided or to be provided, or distributed or distributable, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (collectively, the “Payments”), and (ii) the net after-tax amount of such Payments, after Executive has paid all taxes due thereon (including, without limitation, taxes due under Section 4999 of the Code) is less than the net after-tax amount of all such Payments otherwise due to Executive in the aggregate, if such Payments were reduced to an amount equal to 2.99 times Executive’s “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code), then the aggregate amount of such Payments payable to Executive shall be reduced to an amount that will equal 2.99 times Executive’s base amount. To the extent such aggregate parachute payment amounts are required to be so reduced, the parachute payment amounts due to Executive (but no non-parachute payment amounts) shall be reduced in the following order: (i) the parachute payments that are payable in cash shall be reduced (if necessary, to zero) with amounts that are payable last reduced first; (ii) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity, valued at full value (rather than accelerated value), with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24); and (iii) all other non-cash benefits not otherwise described in clause (ii) of this Section 8 reduced last. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will use its good faith best efforts to solicit shareholder approval of the Executive’s “excess parachute payments” in accordance with Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder if Q&A 7 of the 280G regulations is applicable and Executive first waives the right to receive excess parachute payments unless approved by shareholders.

Section 9. Restrictive Covenants

(a)General. Executive acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the business of the Company Group, that access to Confidential Information renders Executive special and unique within the industry of the Company Group, and that Executive will have the opportunity to develop substantial relationships with existing and prospective clients, accounts, customers, consultants, contractors, investors, and strategic partners of the Company Group during the course of and as a result of Executive’s employment with the Company. In light of the foregoing, as a condition of Executive’s employment by the Company, and in consideration of Executive’s employment hereunder and the compensation and benefits provided herein, Executive acknowledges and agrees to the Restrictive Covenants, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. Executive further recognizes and acknowledges that the restrictions and limitations set forth in the Restrictive Covenants are reasonable and valid in geographical and temporal scope and in all other respects and are essential to protect the value of the business and assets of the Company Group.

(b)Other Covenants. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that Executive is subject to similar restrictive covenants pursuant to any other agreement with any member of the Company Group, including, without limitation, under the Equity Documents (“Other Covenants”), the covenants contained in this Agreement shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any such Other Covenants, and enforcement by the Company of the covenants contained in this Agreement shall not preclude the applicable member of the Company Group from enforcing such Other Covenants in accordance with their terms.

Section 10. Representations and Warranties of Executive.

Executive represents and warrants to the Company that:

(a)Executive is entering into this Agreement voluntarily and that his employment hereunder and compliance with the terms and conditions hereof will not conflict with or result in the breach by him of any agreement to which he is a party or by which he may be bound;

(d)Executive has not been terminated from any prior employer or service recipient, or otherwise disciplined in connection any such relationship, in connection with, or as a result of, any claim of workplace sexual harassment or sex or gender discrimination, and to Executive’s knowledge, Executive has not been the subject of any investigation, formal allegation, civil or criminal complaint, charge, or settlement regarding workplace sexual harassment or sex or gender discrimination.

Section 11. Taxes.

The Company may withhold from any payments made under this Agreement all applicable taxes, including but not limited to income, employment, and social insurance taxes, as shall be required by law. Executive acknowledges and represents that the Company has not provided any tax advice to him in connection with this Agreement and that he has been advised by the Company to seek tax advice from his own tax advisors regarding this Agreement and payments that may be made to him pursuant to this Agreement, including specifically, the application of the provisions of Section 409A of the Code to such payments.

Section 12. Set Off; Mitigation.

To the extent not prohibited by law or in violation of Section 409A of the Code, the Company’s obligation to pay Executive the amounts provided and to make the arrangements provided hereunder shall be subject to set-off, counterclaim, or recoupment of amounts owed by Executive to the Company or its affiliates; provided, however, that to the extent any amount so subject to set-off, counterclaim, or recoupment is payable in installments hereunder, such set-off, counterclaim, or recoupment shall not modify the applicable payment date of any installment, and to the extent an obligation cannot be satisfied by reduction of a single installment payment, any portion not satisfied shall remain an outstanding obligation of Executive and shall be applied to the next installment only at such time the installment is otherwise payable pursuant to the specified payment schedule. Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided pursuant to this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise, and the amount of any payment provided for pursuant to this Agreement shall not be reduced by any compensation earned as a result of Executive’s other employment or otherwise.

Section 13. Additional Section 409A Provisions.

(b)Each payment in a series of payments hereunder shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

(c)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the payment (or commencement of a series of payments) hereunder of any nonqualified deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) upon a termination of employment shall be delayed until such time as Executive has also undergone a “separation from service” as defined in Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(h), at which time such nonqualified deferred compensation (calculated as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment hereunder) shall be paid (or commence to be paid) to Executive on the schedule set forth in this Section 7 as if Executive had undergone such termination of employment (under the same circumstances) on the date of his ultimate “separation from service.”

(d)To the extent that any right to reimbursement of expenses or payment of any benefit in-kind under this Agreement constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), (i) any such expense reimbursement shall be made by the Company no later than the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expense was incurred by Executive, (ii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (iii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other taxable year; provided, however, that the foregoing clause shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect.

(e)While the payments and benefits provided hereunder are intended to be structured in a manner to avoid the implication of any penalty taxes under Section 409A of the Code, in no event whatsoever shall any member of the Company Group be liable for any additional tax, interest, or penalties that may be imposed on Executive as a result of Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code (other than for withholding obligations or other obligations applicable to employers, if any, under Section 409A of the Code).

EXHIBIT A

RELEASE OF CLAIMS

As used in this Release of Claims (this “Release”), the term “claims” will include all claims, covenants, warranties, promises, undertakings, actions, suits, causes of action, obligations, debts, accounts, attorneys’ fees, judgments, losses, and liabilities, of whatsoever kind or nature, in law, in equity, or otherwise.

For and in consideration of the Severance Benefits, and other good and valuable consideration, I, , for and on behalf of myself and my heirs, administrators, executors, and assigns, effective the date on which this release becomes effective pursuant to its terms, do fully and forever release, remise, and discharge each of the Company and each of its direct and indirect subsidiaries and affiliates, together with their respective officers, directors, partners, shareholders, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Group”) from any and all claims whatsoever up to the date hereof that I had, may have had, or now have against the Group, for or by reason of any matter, cause, or thing whatsoever, including any claim arising out of or attributable to my employment or the termination of my employment with the Company, whether for tort, breach of express or implied employment contract, intentional infliction of emotional distress, wrongful termination, unjust dismissal, defamation, libel, or slander, or under any federal, state, or local law dealing with discrimination based on age, race, sex, national origin, handicap, religion, disability, or sexual orientation. This release of claims includes, but is not limited to, all claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Family Medical Leave Act, and the Equal Pay Act, each as may be amended from time to time, and all other federal, state, and local laws, the common law, and any other purported restriction on an employer’s right to terminate the employment of employees. The release contained herein is intended to be a general release of any and all claims to the fullest extent permissible by law.

I acknowledge and agree that as of the date I execute this Release, I have no knowledge of any facts or circumstances that give rise or could give rise to any claims under any of the laws listed in the preceding paragraph.

By executing this Release, I specifically release all claims relating to my employment and its termination under ADEA, a United States federal statute that, among other things, prohibits discrimination on the basis of age in employment and employee benefit plans.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Release to the contrary, by executing this Release, I am not releasing (i) any claims relating to my rights under Section 7 of the Employment Agreement, (ii) any claims that cannot be waived by law, (iii) any claims with respect to any securities of the Company that I own or (iv) my right of indemnification as provided by, and in accordance with the terms of, the Company’s by-laws or a Company insurance policy providing such coverage, as any of such may be amended from time to time.

I expressly acknowledge and agree that I –

•Am able to read the language, and understand the meaning and effect, of this Release;

•Have no physical or mental impairment of any kind that has interfered with my ability to read and understand the meaning of this Release or its terms, and that I am not acting under the influence of any medication, drug, or chemical of any type in entering into this Release;

•Am specifically agreeing to the terms of the release contained in this Release because the Company has agreed to pay me the Severance Benefits in consideration for my agreement to accept it in full settlement of all possible claims I might have or ever had, and because of my execution of this Release;

•Acknowledge that, but for my execution of this Release, I would not be entitled to the Severance Benefits;

•Understand that, by entering into this Release, I do not waive rights or claims under ADEA that may arise after the date I execute this Release;

•Had or could have [twenty-one (21)][forty-five (45)]1 days from the date of my termination of employment (the “Release Expiration Date”) in which to review and consider this Release, and that if I execute this Release prior to the Release Expiration Date, I have voluntarily and knowingly waived the remainder of the review period;

•Have not relied upon any representation or statement not set forth in this Release or my Employment Agreement made by the Company or any of its representatives;

•Was advised to consult with my attorney regarding the terms and effect of this Release; and

•Have signed this Release knowingly and voluntarily.

I represent and warrant that I have not previously filed, and to the maximum extent permitted by law agree that I will not file, a complaint, charge, or lawsuit against any member of the Group regarding any of the claims released herein. If, notwithstanding this representation and warranty, I have filed or file such a complaint, charge, or lawsuit, I agree that I shall cause such complaint, charge, or lawsuit to be dismissed with prejudice and shall pay any and all costs required in obtaining dismissal of such complaint, charge, or lawsuit, including without limitation the attorneys’ fees of any member of the Group against whom I have filed such a complaint, charge, or lawsuit. This paragraph shall not apply, however, to a claim of age discrimination under ADEA or to any non-waivable right to file a charge with the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (the “EEOC”); provided, however, that if the EEOC were to pursue any claims relating to my employment with Company, I agree that I shall not be entitled to recover any monetary damages or any other remedies or benefits as a result and that this Release and the Severance Benefits will control as the exclusive remedy and full settlement of all such claims by me.

Nothing in this Release shall prohibit or impede me from communicating, cooperating or filing a complaint with any Governmental Entity with respect to possible violations of any U.S. federal, state or local law or regulation, or otherwise making disclosures to any Governmental Entity, in each case, that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any such law or regulation; provided, that in each case such communications and disclosures are consistent with applicable law. I understand and acknowledge that an individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made (1) in confidence to a federal, state, or

1 To be selected based on whether applicable termination was “in connection with an exit incentive or other employment termination program” (as such phrase is defined in the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967).


-3-

local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (2) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. I understand and acknowledge further that an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph or under applicable law, under no circumstance am I authorized to disclose any information covered by the Company’s attorney-client privilege or attorney work product, or the Company’s trade secrets, without the prior written consent of the Company’s General Counsel or other officer designated by the Company. I do not need the prior authorization of (or to give notice to) any member of the Company Group regarding any communication, disclosure, or activity permitted by this paragraph.

I hereby agree to waive any and all claims to re-employment with the Company or any other member of the Company Group and affirmatively agree not to seek further employment with the Company or any other member of the Company Group.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Release will not become effective or enforceable prior to the expiration of the period of seven (7) calendar days following the date of its execution by me (the “Revocation Period”), during which time I may revoke my acceptance of this Release by notifying the Company, in writing, delivered to the Company at its principal executive office, marked for the attention of its General Counsel, with copy to the Board. To be effective, such revocation must be received by the Company no later than 11:59 p.m. on the seventh (7th) calendar day following the execution of this Release. Provided that the Release is executed and I do not revoke it during the Revocation Period, the eighth (8th) day following the date on which this Release is executed shall be its effective date. I acknowledge and agree that if I revoke this Release during the Revocation Period, this Release will be null and void and of no effect, and neither the Company nor any other member of the Group will have any obligations to pay me the Severance Benefits.

The provisions of this Release shall be binding upon my heirs, executors, administrators, legal personal representatives, and assigns. If any provision of this Release shall be held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void, or unenforceable, such provision shall be of no force or effect. The illegality or unenforceability of such provision, however, shall have no effect upon and shall not impair the enforceability of any other provision of this Release.

EXCEPT WHERE PREEMPTED BY FEDERAL LAW, THIS RELEASE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL LAW AND THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY, APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THAT STATE WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS. I HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS RELEASE.

Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in my Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated _____________________ with the Company (the “Employment Agreement”).

EXHIBIT B

RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS

1.Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation; Non-Interference. Executive acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the businesses of the Company Group and its Affiliates and accordingly agrees as follows:

(a)Prior to the Executive’s Termination for any reason (the “Employment Term”) and until the first anniversary of Executive’s Termination (the “Restrictive Covenant Period”), Executive will not (i) directly or indirectly, in any geographic location in which the Company Group engages, own, operate, manage, control, invest in, lend to, acquire an interest in, or otherwise engage or participate in (whether as an employee, independent contractor, consultant, partner, shareholder, joint venturer, investor, or any other type of participant) the management or conduct of any business activities, whether through selling, distributing, manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or otherwise, that compete directly or indirectly with any member of the Company Group (“Competitive Activities”), it being understood that Competitive Activities as of the date hereof include, without limitation, principally engaging in the business of model based drug development consulting services or technology solutions, including with respect to discovery, pre-clinical, clinical and post-marketing drug development and regulatory submissions and review and any other business in which the Company is actively engaged at the time of termination (the “Business”).

(b)During the Restrictive Covenant Period, Executive will not directly or indirectly:

(i)(A) solicit or induce any customer, supplier, licensee, or other business relation (or any actively sought prospective customer, supplier, licensee, or other business relation) of the Company or any member of the Company Group to cease doing business with or materially reduce the amount of business conducted with the Company or any member of the Company Group, or interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee, or other business relation (or any actively sought prospective customer, supplier, licensee, or other business relation) and the Company or any member of the Company Group; or (B) knowingly or intentionally assist any Person in any substantive or direct way to do, or attempt to do, anything prohibited by clause (A) above; or

(ii)(A) solicit or hire, directly or indirectly, for employment, or assist others in hiring, employing, inducing, or soliciting for employment (except in the performance of Executive’s duties), any employees of the Company or any member of the Company Group (or individuals who were employed during the one-year period prior to the termination of Executive’s employment with the Service Recipient); or (B) knowingly or intentionally assist any Person in any substantive or direct way to do, or attempt to do, anything prohibited by clause (A) above.

(c)If a final and non-appealable judicial determination is made that any of the provisions of this Section 1 constitutes an unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable restriction against Executive, the provisions of this Section 1 will not be rendered void but will be deemed to be modified to the minimum extent necessary to remain in force and effect for the longest period and largest geographic area that would not constitute such an unreasonable or unenforceable restriction. Moreover, notwithstanding the fact that any provision of this Section 1 is determined not to be specifically enforceable, the Company will nevertheless be entitled to recover monetary damages as a result of Executive’s breach of such provision.

(d)The period of time during which the provisions of this Section 1 shall be in effect shall be extended by the length of time during which Executive is in breach of the terms hereof.

(e)The provisions of Section 1 hereof shall survive the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason.

2.Confidentiality; Intellectual Property.


-5-

(a)Confidentiality.

(i)Executive acknowledges that the Confidential Information obtained by Executive while employed by the Company is the property of the Company Group. Therefore, Executive agrees that Executive shall not disclose to any unauthorized Person or use for Executive’s own purposes any Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Company, unless and to the extent that the aforementioned matters become generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions in violation of this Agreement; provided, however, that if Executive receives a request to disclose Confidential Information pursuant to a deposition, interrogation, request for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand, governmental or regulatory process, or similar process, (i) Executive shall, as promptly as practicable, notify in writing the Company, and consult with and reasonably assist the Company, at the Company’s expense, in seeking a protective order or request for other appropriate remedy, (ii) in the event that such protective order or remedy is not obtained, or if the Company waives compliance with the terms hereof, Executive shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information which, based on the advice of Executive’s legal counsel, is legally required to be disclosed and shall exercise reasonable best efforts to provide that the receiving Person shall agree to treat such Confidential Information as confidential to the extent possible (and permitted under applicable law) in respect of the applicable proceeding or process, and (iii) the Company shall be given an opportunity to review the Confidential Information prior to disclosure thereof.

(ii)For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means information, observations, and data concerning the business or affairs of the Company Group, including, without limitation, all business information (whether or not in written form) that relates to any member of the Company Group, or its customers, suppliers, or contractors or any other third parties in respect of which the Company or any member of the Company Group has a business relationship or owes a duty of confidentiality, or their respective businesses or products, and that is not known to the public generally other than as a result of Executive’s breach of this Agreement, including but not limited to technical information or reports, formulas, trade secrets, unwritten knowledge and “know-how,” operating instructions, training manuals, customer lists, customer buying records and habits, product sales records and documents, and product development, marketing, and sales strategies, market surveys, marketing plans, profitability analyses, product cost, long-range plans, information relating to pricing, competitive strategies, and new product development, information relating to any forms of compensation or other personnel-related information, contracts, and supplier lists. Confidential Information will not include such information known to Executive prior to Executive’s involvement with the Company or any predecessor thereof or information rightfully obtained from a third party (other than pursuant to a breach by Executive of this Agreement). Without limiting the foregoing, Executive and the Company each agree to keep confidential the existence of, and any information concerning, any dispute between Executive and the Company or any member of the Company Group, except that Executive and the Company each may disclose information concerning such dispute to the court that is considering such dispute or to their respective legal counsel (provided that such counsel agrees not to disclose any such information other than as necessary to the prosecution or defense of such dispute).

(iii)Executive acknowledges that all notes, memoranda, specifications, devices, formulas, records, files, lists, drawings, documents, models, equipment, property, computer, software, or intellectual property relating to the businesses of the Company Group, in whatever form (including electronic), and all copies thereof, that are received or created by Executive while an employee of the Company (including but not limited to Confidential Information and Inventions) are and shall remain the property of the Company Group, and Executive shall as promptly as practicable return such property to the Company upon the termination of Executive’s employment and, in any event, at the Company’s request. Executive agrees further that any property situated on the premises of, and owned by, the Company or any member of the Company Group, including disks and other storage media, filing cabinets, and


-6-

other work areas, is subject to inspection by the Company’s personnel at any time with or without notice.

(iv)Executive agrees further that Executive will not improperly use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other Person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, and will not bring onto the premises of the Company or any member of the Company Group any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other Person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or other Person.

(b)Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or impede the Executive from communicating, cooperating or filing a complaint with any U.S. federal, state or local governmental or law enforcement branch, agency or entity (collectively, a “Governmental Entity”) with respect to possible violations of any U.S. federal, state or local law or regulation, or otherwise making disclosures to any Governmental Entity, in each case, that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any such law or regulation, provided that in each case such communications and disclosures are consistent with applicable law. The Executive understands and acknowledges that an individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. The Executive understands and acknowledges further that an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstance will the Executive be authorized to disclose any information covered by attorney-client privilege or attorney work product of any member of the Company without prior written consent of the Company’s General Counsel or other officer designated by the Company.

(c)Intellectual Property.

(i)Executive agrees that the results and proceeds of Executive’s services for the Company Group (including, but not limited to, any Confidential Information and other trade secrets, products, services, processes, know-how, designs, developments, innovations, analyses, drawings, reports, techniques, formulas, methods, developmental or experimental work, improvements, discoveries, inventions, ideas, source and object codes, programs, matters of a literary, musical, dramatic, or otherwise creative nature, writings, and other works of authorship) resulting from services performed while an employee of the Company and any works in progress, whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar statutes, that were made, developed, conceived, or reduced to practice or learned by Executive, either alone or jointly with others (collectively, “Inventions”), shall be works-made-for-hire, and the Company (or, if applicable or as directed by the Company, any member of the Company Group) shall be deemed the sole owner throughout the universe of any and all trade secret, patent, copyright, and other intellectual property rights (collectively, “Proprietary Rights”) of whatsoever nature therein, whether or not now or hereafter known, existing, contemplated, recognized, or developed, with the right to use the same in perpetuity in any manner the Company determines in its sole discretion, without any further payment to Executive whatsoever. If, for any reason, any of such results and proceeds shall not legally be a work-made-for-hire or there are any Proprietary Rights that do not accrue to the Company (or, as the case may be, any member of the Company Group) under the immediately preceding sentence, then Executive hereby irrevocably assigns and agrees to assign any and all of Executive’s right, title, and interest thereto, including any and all Proprietary Rights of whatsoever nature therein, whether or not now or hereafter known, existing, contemplated, recognized, or developed, to the Company (or, if applicable or as directed by the Company, any member of the Company Group), and the Company or such member of the Company Group shall have the right to use the same in perpetuity throughout the universe in any manner determined by the Company or such member of the Company Group without any further payment to Executive whatsoever. As to any Invention that Executive is required to assign,


-7-

Executive shall promptly and fully disclose to the Company all information known to Executive concerning such Invention.

(ii)Executive agrees that, from time to time, as may be requested by the Company and at the Company’s sole cost and expense, Executive shall do any and all things that the Company may reasonably deem useful or desirable to establish or document the Company’s exclusive ownership throughout the United States of America or any other country of any and all Proprietary Rights in any such Inventions, including the execution of appropriate copyright or patent applications or assignments. To the extent that Executive has any Proprietary Rights in the Inventions that cannot be assigned in the manner described above, Executive unconditionally and irrevocably waives the enforcement of such Proprietary Rights. This Section 2(b)(ii) is subject to and shall not be deemed to limit, restrict, or constitute any waiver by the Company of ownership of any Proprietary Rights to which the Company (or other applicable member of the Company Group) may be entitled by operation of law by virtue of the Company’s (or other applicable member of the Company Group’s) being Executive’s employer. Executive agrees further that, from time to time, as may be requested by the Company and at the Company’s sole cost and expense, Executive shall assist the Company in every reasonable, proper and lawful way to obtain and from time to time enforce Proprietary Rights relating to Inventions in any and all countries. To this end, Executive shall execute, verify, and deliver such documents and perform such other acts (including appearances as a witness) as the Company may reasonably request for use in applying for, obtaining, perfecting, evidencing, sustaining, and enforcing such Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof. In addition, Executive shall execute, verify, and deliver assignments of such Proprietary Rights to the Company or its designees. Executive’s obligation to assist the Company with respect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Inventions in any and all countries shall continue beyond the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company.

(iii)Executive hereby waives and quitclaims to the Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, that Executive now or may hereafter have for infringement of any Proprietary Rights assigned hereunder to the Company.

3.Non-Disparagement. Executive shall not, whether in writing (electronically or otherwise) or orally, malign, denigrate, or disparage the Company, any other member of the Company Group, or any of their respective predecessors or successors, or any of their respective current or former managers, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, members, agents, or representatives, with respect to any of their respective past or present activities, or otherwise publish (whether in writing (electronically or otherwise) or orally) statements that tend to portray any of the aforementioned parties in an unfavorable light.

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract]
Public Offerings and Other significant Shareholder Transactions	Public Offerings and Other significant Shareholder Transactions On December 11, 2020, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold 14,630,000 shares of common stock and certain selling stockholders, including former controlling shareholder, EQT AB (“EQT”), sold 18,783,250 shares of our common stock (representing the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares), at a public offering price of $23.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of $316,301, after deducting underwriters’ discounts and commissions. In addition, $4,408 of legal, accounting and other offering costs, net of the tax effect of $259, were incurred in connection with the sale of the Company's common stock in the IPO, were capitalized and offset against the proceeds received in the IPO. The Company was party to a registration rights agreement with EQT and its affiliates, Arsenal Capital Partners (“Arsenal”), and certain other stockholders, dated December 8, 2020. That agreement was terminated following the sale of all of EQT’s 29,954,521 common shares in the Company to Arsenal on December 8, 2022 (the “Arsenal Transaction”). Arsenal and the Company entered into a new registration rights agreement, dated November 3, 2022 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), which contains provisions that entitle Arsenal to certain rights to have their securities registered by the Company under the Securities Act. While the Registration Rights Agreement is in effect, Arsenal is entitled to (i) four “demand” registrations, (ii) one underwritten offering in any consecutive 90-day period, and (iii) two underwritten offerings in any consecutive 360-day period, subject in each case to certain limitations. In addition, the Registration Rights Agreement provides that the Company will share certain expenses of Arsenal relating to such registrations and indemnify Arsenal against certain liabilities that may arise under the Securities Act. In connection with the Arsenal Transaction, the Company also entered into a letter agreement, effective December 8, 2022, with Arsenal providing that, subject to certain exceptions, Arsenal is prohibited from transferring the shares from EQT until December 8, 2024. Also in connection with the Arsenal Transaction, the Company entered into a stockholders agreement with Arsenal, effective December 8, 2022, which, among other things, grants certain conditional rights to Arsenal to nominate up to two directors to our Board. On August 11, 2022, the Company completed a secondary public offering in which certain selling stockholders, including EQT, sold 7,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company did not offer any common stock in this transaction and did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. The Company incurred costs of $596, recorded in general and administrative expenses, in relation to the secondary public offering.

Concentrations of Credit Risk	9 Months Ended
Concentrations of Credit Risk	Sep. 30, 2023
Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract]
Concentrations of Credit Risk	Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk have consisted principally of cash and cash equivalent investments and trade receivables. The Company invests available cash in bank deposits, investment-grade securities, and short-term interest-producing investments, including government obligations and other money market instruments. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the investments were bank deposits, overnight sweep accounts, and money market funds. The Company has adopted credit policies and standards to evaluate the risk associated with sales that require collateral, such as letters of credit or bank guarantees, whenever deemed necessary. Management believes that any risk of loss is significantly reduced due to the nature of the customers and distributors with which the Company does business. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Acquisitions	9 Months Ended
Acquisitions	Sep. 30, 2023
Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]
Acquisitions	AcquisitionsAcquisitions have been accounted for by using the acquisition method of accounting pursuant to FASB ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” Amounts allocated to the purchased assets and liabilities assumed are based upon the total purchase price and the estimated fair values of such assets and liabilities on the effective date of the purchase as determined by an independent third party. The results of operations have been included in the Company’s results of operations prospectively from the date of acquisition. Since its inception, and as of September 30, 2023, the Company has completed 18 acquisitions, of which 13 have included software or technology. Details of acquisitions that have closed since the beginning of fiscal year 2022 are provided below. Integrated Nonclinical Development Solutions, Inc. On January 3, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Integrated Nonclinical Development Solutions, Inc. (“INDS”), a company that provides the SEND Explorer software and drug development consulting for a total consideration of $8,048. The business combination was not significant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Based on the Company’s purchase price allocation, approximately $2,380, $1,040, $100, and $2,910 of the purchase price were assigned to customer relationships, developed technology, non-compete agreements, and goodwill, respectively. Vyasa Analytics, LLC (“Vyasa”) On December 28, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Vyasa, a company that provides an artificial intelligence ("AI") powered, scalable deep learning software and analytics platform for organizations within healthcare and life sciences for a total consideration of $29,276. The business combination was not significant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Based on the Company’s purchase price allocation, approximately $11,400, $1,500, $120, $80 and $16,589 of the purchase price were assigned to developed technology, customer relationships, trademarks, non-compete agreements and goodwill, respectively. The total estimated consideration includes a portion of contingent consideration that is payable over the next three years in a combination of 70% cash and 30% common stock of the Company. Future payments of contingent consideration are based on achieving certain eligible revenue thresholds for each of the twelve-month periods ended at December 31, 2023, 2024, and 2025. Potential payments range from $0 to $60,000 over the three-year period. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated to be $19,813 as of the acquisition date. The contingent consideration was classified as a liability and included in other long term liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, which is remeasured on a recurring basis at fair value for each reporting period. Any changes in the fair value of these contingent liabilities are included in the earnings in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). At September 30, 2023, the contingent consideration was remeasured to $31,512, resulting in a fair value adjustment of $11,699 and recorded in general and administrative (“G&A”) on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Drug Interaction Solutions, University of Washington ("DIDB") On June 20, 2023, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with the University of Washington and completed the acquisition of DIDB, including the Drug Interaction Database and related products, from The University of Washington for a total estimated consideration of $8,340. The business combination was not significant to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The total estimated consideration includes a portion of contingent consideration that is payable over the next two years in cash, not to exceed $2,000. Future payments of contingent consideration are based on eligible revenue for the period from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2025. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated to be $790 as of the acquisition date. At September 30, 2023, the contingent consideration was remeasured to $407, resulting in a negative fair value adjustment of $383 and recorded in G&A on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The current purchase price allocation is preliminary. The primary areas of the preliminary purchase price allocations that are not yet finalized relate to the fair value of certain tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and residual goodwill. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining the fair values of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period. Any adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation identified during the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the acquisition date, will be accounted for prospectively. Based on the Company’s preliminary purchase price allocation, approximately $330, $5,600, $360, and $2,316 of the purchase price were assigned to trademarks, database content/technology, customer relationships and goodwill, respectively. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the operating results of each acquisition from the date of acquisition.

Income Taxes	Sep. 30, 2023
Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company generally records its interim tax provision based upon a projection of the Company's estimated annual effective tax rate ("EAETR"). This EAETR is applied to the year-to-date consolidated pre-tax income to determine the interim provisions for income taxes before discrete items. The effective tax rate ("ETR") each period is impacted by a number of factors, including the relative mix of domestic and international earnings, permanent differences adjustments to the valuation allowances, and discrete items. The currently forecasted ETR may vary from the actual year-end due to the changes in these factors. The Company's global ETR for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were 9%, 54%, (0.3)%, and 63%, respectively, including discrete tax items. The current year decrease in the ETR was principally due to the combined effect of the overall decrease in pre-tax book income, the impact of non-deductible items, and the tax effect of certain discrete items.
