Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except share and per share data)
1. Formation and Business of the Company
AvidXchange, Inc. was incorporated in the state of Delaware in 2000. In July 2021, the company consummated a reorganization by interposing a holding company between AvidXchange, Inc. and its stockholders. After the reorganization, all of the stockholders of AvidXchange, Inc. became stockholders of AvidXchange Holdings, Inc. and AvidXchange, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of AvidXchange Holdings, Inc. To accomplish the reorganization, the company formed AvidXchange Holdings, Inc., which was incorporated in Delaware on January 27, 2021, and AvidXchange Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) as a wholly owned subsidiary of AvidXchange Holdings, Inc. The Company merged AvidXchange, Inc. with and into Merger Sub, with AvidXchange, Inc. as the surviving entity, by issuing identical shares of stock of AvidXchange Holdings, Inc. to the stockholders of AvidXchange, Inc. in exchange for their equity interest in AvidXchange, Inc.
The merger was considered a transaction between entities under common control. Upon the effective date of the reorganization, July 9, 2021, AvidXchange Holdings, Inc. recognized the assets and liabilities of AvidXchange, Inc. at their carrying values within its financial statements.
AvidXchange Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries are collectively referred to as “AvidXchange” or “the Company” in the accompanying consolidated financial statements after the reorganization.
AvidXchange provides accounts payable (“AP”) automation software and payment solutions for middle market businesses and their suppliers. The Company provides solutions and services throughout North America spanning multiple industries including real estate, homeowners associations, construction, financial services (including banks and credit unions), healthcare facilities, social services, education, and media.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, changes in convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022 or for any other future annual or interim period. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures including certain notes required by U.S. GAAP on an annual reporting basis. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. There are no items of comprehensive income.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of and during the reporting period. The Company bases estimates and assumptions on historical experience when available and on various factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Significant estimates reflected in these consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, useful lives assigned to fixed and intangible assets, capitalization of internal-use software, deferral of customer origination costs, the fair value of intangible assets acquired in a business combination, the fair value of goodwill, the recoverability of deferred income taxes, the fair value of common stock prior to the IPO, and the fair value of the convertible common stock liability (or the “derivative instrument”). The Company assesses estimates on an ongoing basis; however, actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Restructuring costs
On September 21, 2022, the Company initiated a restructuring plan to generate cost savings and improve effectiveness of the organization which resulted in a reduction in the Company’s U.S. workforce. The Company recorded restructuring costs of $
7
AvidXchange Holdings, Inc.
Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except share and per share data)
of restructuring costs which are expected to be settled in the fourth quarter of 2022. The Company expects to incur an additional amount of approximately $
Concentrations
Significant Services
A substantial portion of the Company’s revenue is derived from interchange fees earned on payment transactions processed as virtual commercial cards (“VCC”). The Company utilizes service providers to process these transactions. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, revenue from
Future regulation or changes by the card brand payment networks could have a substantial impact on the Company’s revenue from VCC transactions. If interchange rates decline, whether due to actions by the card brand payment networks, merchant/suppliers availing themselves of lower rates, or future regulation, the Company’s total operating revenues, operating results, prospects for future growth and overall business could be materially affected.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase that are not recorded as marketable securities to be cash equivalents. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Cash in the Company’s bank accounts may exceed federally insured limits.
Marketable Securities
Marketable securities consist of short-term investments in corporate bonds, commercial paper, and various U.S. government backed securities. To reflect its intention, the Company classifies its marketable securities as held-to-maturity at the time of purchase. As a result, the marketable securities are recorded at amortized cost and any gains or losses realized upon maturity are reported in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations.
Restricted Funds Held for Customers and Payment Service Obligations
Restricted funds held for customers and the corresponding liability of payment service obligations represent funds that are collected from customers for payments to their suppliers. The balance of these obligations may fluctuate from period to period depending on the timing of the period end and the timing of when outstanding payments clear with financial institutions. The Company is registered as a money services business with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.

The Company historically transmitted buyer customer funds using a legacy model pursuant to which buyer customer funds are held in trust accounts that are maintained and operated by a trustee pending distribution to suppliers in accordance with instructions provided through the Company’s platform. The Company is not the trustee or beneficiary of the trusts which hold these buyer deposits; accordingly, the Company does not record these assets and offsetting liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets. The Company has largely phased out this model although certain banks that resell our products and services continue to leverage a similar structure. The Company contractually earns interest on funds held for certain buyers. The amount of Company and bank customer funds held in all trust-related accounts was approximately $
The Company has also obtained a money transmitter license in all states which require licensure. This model enables AvidXchange to provide commercial payment services to businesses through its “for the benefit of customer” bank accounts, also known as FBO, that are restricted for such purposes. The restricted funds held for customers are restricted for the purpose of

satisfying the customer’s supplier obligations and are not available for general business use by the Company. The Company maintains these funds in liquid cash accounts and contractually earns interest on these funds held for customers. These funds are recognized as a restricted cash asset and a corresponding liability is recorded for payments due to their suppliers on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Restricted funds held for customers are included in the cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company is continuing to work towards fully transitioning to the money transmitter license model.
Stock-Based Compensation
Compensation cost for stock-based awards issued to employees and outside directors, including stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), is measured at fair value on the date of grant.
The fair value of stock options is estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model, while the fair value of RSUs is determined using the fair value of the Company’s underlying common stock. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Stock-based compensation expense for RSUs with performance conditions is recognized over the requisite service period on an accelerated-basis as long as the performance condition in the form of a specified liquidity event is probable to occur. In the case of equity issued in lieu of cash bonus, expense is recognized in the period the cash bonus was earned.
As described below in New Accounting Pronouncements - Recently Adopted Accounting Standards, the Company changed its accounting for its estimation of forfeitures of awards on January 1, 2022. Prior to the change, the impact of forfeitures on the recognition of expense was estimated based on historical forfeiture activity. After the date of adoption, the Company recognizes the impact of forfeitures as they occur.
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan
The Company adopted a nonqualified, deferred compensation plan effective October 1, 2015, which is an unfunded plan created for the benefit of a select group of management or highly compensated employees. The purpose of the plan is to attract and retain key employees by providing them with an opportunity to defer receipt of a portion of their compensation. It is exempt from the participation, vesting, funding, and fiduciary requirements set forth in Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. Deferred amounts are not subject to forfeiture and are deemed invested among investment funds offered under the nonqualified deferred compensation plan, as directed by each participant.
The Company has established a ‘rabbi trust’ that serves as an investment to shadow the deferred compensation plan liability. The assets of the rabbi trust primarily consist of trust-owned life insurance policies which are recorded at cash surrender value and are included in other noncurrent assets. The change in cash surrender value of the life insurance policies in the rabbi trust is recorded in other income (expense) on the Company's unaudited consolidated statements of operations. The assets of the rabbi trust are general assets of the Company and as such, would be subject to the claims of creditors in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency. The related deferred compensation liabilities are included in other long-term liabilities.
The Company has recorded these assets and liabilities at their fair value. In association with this plan, $
Contingent Liabilities
Contingent liabilities require significant judgment in estimating potential losses for legal claims. We review significant new claims and litigation for the probability of an adverse outcome. Estimates are recorded as liabilities when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Disclosure is required when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will materially exceed the recorded provision. Contingent liabilities are often resolved over long periods of time. Estimating probable losses requires analysis of multiple forecasts that often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties such as regulators, and the estimated loss can change materially as individual claims develop.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until those standards apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it is (i) no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, these unaudited interim financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except share and per share data)
dates. The JOBS Act does not preclude an emerging growth company from early adopting new or revised accounting standards. The Company will lose its status as an emerging growth company as of December 31, 2022.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
On January 1, 2022, the Company elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur as permitted under the guidance in Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Among other things, this ASU permits entities to make an accounting policy election to either estimate forfeitures on share-based payment awards, as previously required, or to recognize forfeitures as they occur. This election resulted in a $
Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial instruments, Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends the guidance on the impairment of financial instruments by requiring measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for most financial assets, including trade receivables, and other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income (the “CECL framework"). The guidance will replace the Company’s current accounts receivable and supplier advances receivable allowance for doubtful accounts methodology with the CECL framework. ASU 2016-13 was effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company will lose its status as an emerging growth company as of December 31, 2022. Therefore, the guidance will become effective for the Company in the fourth quarter of 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures however management believes the balances impacted will be its reserves related to trade accounts receivable, supplier advances receivable and marketable securities.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. This standard was effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2020. As an emerging growth company, the effective date for the Company is January 1, 2022 for annual reporting periods and January 1, 2023 for interim periods. Early adoption is permitted. Certain amendments of this standard may be adopted on a retrospective basis, modified retrospective basis or prospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance; however, the Company does not expect this guidance to materially impact its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for the annual period ending December 31, 2022.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This standard requires contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers that are acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured as if the acquirer had originated the original contract. For public business entities, it is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will lose its status as an emerging growth company as of December 31, 2022, and therefore the effective date for the Company is January 1, 2023. Entities should apply the provisions of the new standard prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the standard. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Contract Assets and Liabilities
The Company’s rights to payments are not conditional on any factors other than the passage of time, and as such, the Company does not have any contract assets. Contract liabilities consist primarily of advance cash receipts for services (deferred revenue) and are recognized as revenue when the services are provided.
The table below presents information on accounts receivable and contract liabilities.

Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations
Transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized. These revenues are subject to future economic risks including customer cancellations, bankruptcies, regulatory changes and other market factors.
The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”), paragraph 606-10-50-14(b) and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations related to transaction and processing services that qualify for recognition in accordance with paragraph 606-10-55-18 of Topic 606. These contracts contain variable consideration for stand-ready performance obligations for which the exact quantity and mix of transactions to be processed are contingent upon buyer or supplier request. These contracts also contain fixed fees and non-refundable upfront fees; however, these amounts are not considered material to total consolidated revenue.
The Company’s remaining performance obligation consists of contracts with financial institutions who are using the ASCEND solution. These contracts generally have a duration of

Contract Costs
The Company incurs incremental costs to obtain a contract, as well as costs to fulfill a contract with buyer customers that are expected to be recovered. These costs consist primarily of sales commissions incurred if a contract is obtained, and customer implementation related costs.
The Company utilizes a portfolio approach when estimating the amortization of contract acquisition and fulfillment costs. These costs are amortized on a

6. Fair Value Measurements
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, assets of the rabbi trust, accounts payable, deferred compensation liabilities, and debt. The carrying amount of cash, trade receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity. The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for similar debt issues. The fair value approximates the carrying value of long-term debt.
In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels.
The following is a brief description of those three levels:
Level 1 |
Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
Level 2 |
Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. |
Level 3 |
Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions. The fair value for such assets and liabilities is generally determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques that incorporate the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability. |
When more than one level of input is used to determine the fair value, the financial instrument is classified as Level 1, 2 or 3 according to the lowest level input that has a significant impact on the fair value measurement. The Company performs a review of the fair value hierarchy classification on an annual basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification of certain financial assets or financial liabilities within the fair value hierarchy.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company evaluates its financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to determine the appropriate level to classify them for each reporting period. This determination requires significant judgment.
The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the above categories, as of the periods presented.

(1) |
Money market funds are classified as cash equivalents in the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheets. As short-term, highly liquid investments readily convertible to known amounts of cash with remaining maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase, the Company’s cash equivalent money market funds have carrying values that approximate fair value. |
(2) |
Fair value of insurance policies represent their cash surrender value based on the underlying investments in the account which is determined based on quoted prices for identical or similar financial instruments in active markets. |
7. Marketable Securities
Marketable securities consist of corporate bonds, commercial paper, and U.S. Treasury and agency bonds, and are classified as held-to-maturity. Investments held in marketable securities had contractual maturities of between and

The Company's held-to-maturity investments are debt instruments with fixed interest rates. Interest rates have increased in the period subsequent to the purchase of the investments. In general, increasing interest rates decrease the value of fixed rate debt instruments. Management believes the unrealized losses on the Company's held-to-maturity portfolio is primarily driven by increases in interest rates. Management considered the short time to maturity of the investments, quality of the investments, and its intent and ability to hold the investments to maturity and determined the loss to be temporary.

Overview
AvidXchange was founded in 2000 to serve the AP automation needs of the middle market. In 2012, in response to customer demand for more efficient payment methods, we launched the AvidPay Network. Since 2012, we have had substantial growth, both organic and through a series of strategic acquisitions allowing us to expand in the markets that we serve and enter new ones.
Our Business and Revenue Model
We sell our solutions through a hybrid go-to-market strategy that includes direct and indirect channels. Our direct sales force leverages their deep domain expertise in select verticals and over 180 referral relationships with integrated software providers, financial institutions and other partners to identify and attract buyers that would benefit from our AP software solutions and the AvidPay Network. Our indirect channel includes reseller partners and other strategic partnerships such as Mastercard, through MasterCard’s B2B Hub, which includes Fifth Third Bank and Bank of America, and other financial institutions, such as KeyBank, and third-party software providers such as MRI Software, RealPage and SAP Concur. Our referral and indirect channel partnerships provide us greater reach across the market to access a variety of buyers.
We have a highly visible revenue model based on the durability of our buyer relationships and the recurring nature of the revenues we earn. Our revenues are derived from multiple sources, predominantly through software revenue from our buyers and revenue from payments made to their suppliers. The table below represents our revenues disaggregated by type of service performed (in thousands):

Impact of Macroeconomic Events
Throughout 2022, we have continued to see the impact of several macroeconomic events on our business and on our buyers and suppliers. These events have included, but are not limited to, the continuing global COVID-19 pandemic including the emergence of new variants, general economic conditions including inflation, fears of a possible recession, ongoing supply chain disruptions, and geopolitical tensions including those resulting from the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. While we are encouraged by indicators in our sales process, the ongoing uncertainty created by these macroeconomic events could continue to have a negative impact on new sales and lead to longer sales cycles. These events have made it and may continue to make it more difficult for us to acquire new buyers and to close new sales opportunities which in turn adversely impacts revenue growth in future periods.
The U.S. economy is also currently experiencing a higher than normal level of inflation. The long term impacts of inflation on the economy and our business are unclear. On the one hand, our revenue could be positively impacted by inflation as the value of our customer's payments could rise, increasing our payment volume and the base on which we earn interchange revenue. Also, inflationary pressure could be a catalyst for sales acceleration associated with increased interest by potential customers in automating back-office processing. Additionally, the Federal Reserve has raised interest rates in an effort to reduce inflation. These rate increases have in turn increased the interest we earn on funds held for buyers, which we recognize as payment revenue. Conversely, the impact of inflationary pressures on the macro economy could slow the spending of our customers and decrease payment volume. Inflation could also negatively impact our operating costs by increasing costs incurred by us to operate our business due to higher costs from our vendors and increased personnel costs, some of which we may not be able to recoup from our customers. The impact of inflation on our business and on our buyers and suppliers in future periods remains highly uncertain, as does the Federal Reserve’s response to these conditions.
Key Financial and Business Metrics
We regularly review several financial and business metrics to measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, prepare financial projections, and make strategic decisions. We believe that these key business metrics provide meaningful supplemental information for management and investors in assessing our historical and future operating performance. The calculation of the key metrics and other measures discussed below may differ from other similarly-titled metrics used by other companies, securities analysts or investors.

Transactions processed
We believe that transactions processed is an important measure of our business because it is a key indicator of the use by both buyers and suppliers of our solutions and our ability to generate revenue, since a majority of our revenue is generated based on transactions processed. We define transactions processed as the number of invoice transactions and payment transactions, such as invoices, purchase orders, checks, ACH payments and VCCs, processed through our platform during a particular period.
Transaction yield
We believe that transaction yield is an important measure of the value of our solutions to buyers and suppliers as we scale. We define transaction yield as the total revenue during a particular period divided by the total transactions processed during such period.
Total payment volume
We believe total payment volume is an important measure of our AvidPay Network business as it quantifies the demand for our payment services. We define total payment volume as the dollar sum of buyers’ AP payments paid to their suppliers through the AvidPay Network during a particular period.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
We generate revenue from the following sources: (i) software, (ii) payments, and (iii) services.
Software Revenue
We generate software revenue from our buyers primarily through (i) fees calculated based on the number of invoices and payment transactions processed and (ii) recurring maintenance and SaaS fees. Software revenue is typically billed to and paid by our
23
buyers on a monthly basis. Our software offerings, many of which are built for specific verticals, address the needs of buyers and together they comprise our suite of predominately cloud-based solutions designed to manage invoices and automate the AP function. We generally sign multi-year contracts with buyers and revenue is recognized over the term of the contract. We also receive initial upfront implementation fees and software maintenance fees for ongoing support, which are recognized ratably over the term of the applicable support period.
Payment Revenue
We generate revenue from the payments our buyers make to their suppliers through (i) offering electronic payment solutions to suppliers, (ii) fees charged to suppliers from our invoice factoring product, and (iii) interest on funds held for buyers pending disbursement.
Our electronic payment solutions currently include VCC and an enhanced ACH payment product, or AvidPay Direct, which eliminate paper checks and increase the speed of payment to the supplier. AvidPay Direct also provides suppliers with enhanced remittance data allowing the supplier to reconcile the payment and the underlying invoice. VCC revenues result from interchange fees applied to the spend processed and are recorded net of fees and incentives. AvidPay Direct revenue is based on a per transaction fee that we charge to suppliers that generally includes a cap and is based on the spend per payment and is recorded net of incentives.
Our invoice factoring product, Invoice Accelerator, provides certain suppliers with the opportunity to better manage cash flows and receive payments even faster by allowing suppliers to receive advance payment on qualifying invoices. Revenues are generated on a per transaction basis for each payment that is advanced. We currently fund the purchase of invoices from our balance sheet.
Interest income represents interest received from buyer deposits held during the payment clearing process. We receive interest on funds held through our contractual relationship with our buyers, which we recognize as payment revenue. The rate we earn on buyer funds is difficult to predict in the short and long term and will continue to be impacted by the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy and any adjustments it makes in response to inflation.
Our media payments business includes customers that are involved in political advertising in the U.S. Revenue from these customers is cyclical as it is connected to U.S. election advertising spend which tends to increase during significant election years such as mid-term and presidential elections. In 2022, we experienced growth in our media payments business due to spending associated with the 2022 mid-term elections. Due to the intermittent nature of the U.S. election cycle, we expect a significant decrease in these revenues during fiscal year 2023.
We utilize service providers to process a substantial portion of our payment revenue that is derived from interchange fees earned on payment transactions processed as VCCs. A large percentage of our revenue is processed by a small number of providers. See Note 2 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for disclosures regarding this concentration.
Services Revenue
Services revenue includes fees charged to process buyer change in service requests.
Total Revenue
We expect our total revenue to increase year over year due to an increase in the number of buyers and transactions processed, and that payment revenue will comprise a greater proportion of total revenue should the volume of transactions on the AvidPay Network continue to increase.
Cost of Revenues and Operating Expenses
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues includes personnel related costs, which include direct compensation, fringe benefits, short- and long-term incentive plans and stock-based compensation expense. Cost of revenues includes teams responsible for buyer and supplier onboarding and setup, invoice processing, payment operations, money movement execution, and customer service. Personnel costs also include internal labor associated with the employees who monitor the performance and reliability of our buyer and supplier solutions and the underlying delivery infrastructure (i.e., application and data hosting administration, product support and escalations, payment monitoring and settlement functions).
Cost of revenues also includes external expenses that are directly attributed to the processing of invoice and payment transactions. These expenses include the cost of scanning and indexing invoices, printing checks, postage for mailing checks, expenses for processing payments (ACH, check, and wires), bank fees associated with buyer deposits held during the payment clearing process, and other transaction execution costs. Additionally, cost of revenues includes fees paid to third parties for the use of their technology, data hosting services, and customer relationship management tools in the delivery of our services or in supporting the delivery infrastructure and adjustments to the allowance for uncollectible advancements processed through Invoice Accelerator. Lastly, cost of revenues includes estimates for treasury losses that occur in treasury operations. Treasury losses
24
include various unrecoverable internal payment processing errors that occur in the ordinary course of business, such as duplicate payments, overpayments, payments to the wrong party and reconciliation errors.
We have elected to exclude amortization expense of capitalized developed software and acquired technology, as well as allocations of fixed asset depreciation expense and facility expenses from cost of revenues.
Our long-term strategy to transition to public cloud services and decommission on-premise infrastructure hosted in co-located datacenters was substantially completed in the second quarter of 2022.
We expect our cost of revenues as a percentage of revenue to decrease as we continue to realize operational efficiencies and shift more of our transactions to electronic payments.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing consists primarily of costs related to our direct sales force and partner channels that are incurred in the process of setting up go-to-market strategies, generating leads, building brand awareness and acquiring new buyers and suppliers, including efforts to convert suppliers from paper check payments to electronic forms of payments and efforts to enroll them into the Invoice Accelerator solution.
Personnel costs include salaries, wages, direct and amortized sales commissions, fringe benefits, short- and long-term incentive plans and stock-based compensation expense. Most of the commissions paid to the direct sales force are incremental based upon invoice and payment volume from the acquisition of a new buyer and are deferred and amortized ratably over an estimated benefit period of five years.
The partner ecosystem consists of reseller, referral and accounting system partners. Compensation paid to referral and accounting system partners in exchange for the referral and marketing efforts of the partner is classified as sales and marketing expense.
In addition, we focus on generating awareness of our platform and products through a variety of sponsorships, user conferences, trade shows, and integrated marketing campaigns. Costs associated with these efforts, including travel expenses, external consulting services, and various technology applications are included in sales and marketing as well.
We expect our sales and marketing expenses to increase in absolute dollars while remaining fairly consistent as a percentage of revenue as we continue to expand our market presence, grow our customer base, and continue to develop new offerings to sell to our buyers and suppliers. We are focused on the efficient deployment of marketing resources to drive our sales efforts and expect to continue to increase marketing activities over the coming periods.
Research and Development
Research and development efforts focus on the development of new products and business intelligence tools or the enhancements of existing products and applications, as well as large scale infrastructure projects that improve the underlying architecture of our technology.
The main contributors of research and development costs are (i) personnel related expenses, including fringe benefits, short- and long-term incentive plans and stock-based compensation expense, and (ii) fees for outsourced professional services. We capitalize certain internal and external development costs that are attributable to new products or new functionality of existing products and amortize such costs to depreciation and amortization on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life, which is generally three years.
We also incur research and development costs attributable to the use of software tools and technologies required to facilitate our research and development activities. Examples of such costs include fees paid to third parties to host lower technical environments and the associated virtual machine ware fees paid to support agile development efforts, and fees paid for software tools and licenses used in quality control testing and code deployment activities.
We expect our research and development expense to increase in absolute dollars but to decrease as a percentage of revenue over the longer term as we are able to efficiently deploy our development resources against a larger revenue base.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of our finance, human resources, legal and compliance, facilities, information technology, administration, and information security organizations. Significant cost contributors are (i) personnel expenses, including fringe benefits, short- and long-term incentive plans and stock-based compensation expense, and (ii) costs of software applications, including end user computing solutions, and various technology tools utilized by these organizations. Occupancy expenses, which include personnel, rent, maintenance and property tax costs are not allocated to other components of the statements of operations and remain in general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses are reduced by incentives we have received from state and local government agencies as part of various local job development investment grants.
25
In the third quarter of 2022, general and administrative expenses also include restructuring costs incurred in connection with a planned reduction of our U.S. workforce. Restructuring costs consist of one-time severance charges to be paid to affected employees. The plan was implemented, and significantly completed, in the third quarter of 2022. We expect to record an insignificant amount of additional restructuring costs related to this plan in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Additionally, in the third quarter of 2022, general and administrative expenses included a benefit related to the resolution of a purchase accounting liability from the FastPay acquisition in 2021.
While we expect our general and administrative expenses to decrease as a percentage of revenue over the longer term, we expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars over the shorter term as we continue to build out our infrastructure to support our operations as a public company, and to support a larger customer base.
Impairment and Write-Off of Intangible Assets
Impairment and write-off of intangible assets is the reduction from carrying value to fair value for assets or asset groups whose carrying value is not recoverable and also includes charges determined based on our estimation of the amount of obsolescence of previously capitalized software development costs.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense includes depreciation of property and equipment over the estimated useful life of the applicable asset, as well as amortization of acquired intangibles (i.e., technology, customer list and tradename) with a useful life between 3 and 15 years, and amortization of capitalized software development costs with an estimated benefit of 3 years.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) consists primarily of interest expense on our bank borrowings and headquarters finance leases, offset by interest income on non-customer corporate funds. Additionally in periods before our IPO, other income (expense) included changes in the fair value of our derivative instrument, which required adjustments to fair value each reporting period.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit)
Income tax expense (benefit) consists of federal and state income taxes.

The increase in revenues was largely comprised of an increase in payment revenue of $14.5 million, or 34.3%, driven primarily by increased volume of electronic payments on the AvidPay Network due to addition of new and existing buyer payment transaction volume and an increase in payment yield that resulted, in part, from a rising interest rate environment. Payment transaction volume was positively impacted by media payments associated with political media spend due to the 2022 mid-term elections, which contributed $2.6 million during the third quarter of 2022, an increase of $1.9 million. Payment revenue and payment yield were positively impacted by an increase in interest on funds held for customers as the rate earned on those funds increased during the period due to the Federal Reserve's response to the higher than normal level of inflation in the U.S. economy. Payment revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 includes approximately $0.5 million of political media revenue associated with the acquisition of a customer list from PayClearly which closed in January 2022. Software revenue increased by $2.7 million, or 12.1%, primarily driven by increased invoice and payment transaction volume from new and existing customers.

The increase in cost of revenues (excluding depreciation and amortization expense) in absolute terms was due primarily to an increase in employee costs of $1.8 million, including an increase in stock-based compensation of $0.9 million. We experienced increases in information technology ("IT") infrastructure costs, including cloud hosting fees and software costs, of $1.5 million primarily related to our transition of services from data centers to cloud hosting. Additionally, we experienced increases in invoice and check processing fees of $0.6 million and consulting and contract labor increases of $0.2 million. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $0.5 million for misdirected payments primarily due to higher costs in the comparable period. An additional increase of $0.3 million was attributable to the impact of deferred implementation costs as amortization costs continue to increase with the addition of new costs and a decrease in the costs deferred compared to the prior year.

Sales and Marketing Expenses
The increase in sales and marketing expenses in absolute terms was due primarily to an increase of $2.8 million in employee costs (net of capitalized sales commissions), including an increase in stock-based compensation of $1.0 million. We experienced increased travel expenses of $0.3 million as events and sales-related travel increased compared to the low levels we experienced in 2021 due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. We also experienced increases in partner commissions of $0.3 million as well as additional increases of $0.3 million in IT infrastructure and software costs and $0.2 million in recruiting expense.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses increased primarily due to increased employee costs of $7.2 million as we continue to invest in our platform. The investments in our platform are intended to increase the quality, reliability and efficiency of our technology. The increase in employee costs relates to both headcount and compensation increases and includes increases in
27
stock-based compensation of $2.5 million and an increase in annual bonus accrual of $1.3 million. We experienced additional increases of $0.6 million in IT infrastructure and software costs primarily related to our transition of services from data centers to cloud hosting and an increase in expense associated with capitalization of internally developed software of approximately $0.2 million. These increases were offset, in part, by a $1.4 million decrease in costs associated with engaging consultants and contractors and a reduction in recruiting costs of $0.5 million.
General and Administrative Expenses
The increase in general and administrative expenses in absolute terms is attributable to a $5.8 million increase in employee costs, including an increase in stock-based compensation of $3.1 million and increase in annual bonus accrual of $0.9 million. We also experienced an increase of $1.5 million in professional, accounting, regulatory, and consulting fees and contract labor and an increase in IT infrastructure and software maintenance of $0.5 million. The increases reflect the growth in our business and our transition to operating as a public company. These increases were offset, in part, by a reduction in transaction costs of $0.6 million attributable to deal-related costs incurred in the prior year period, a decrease of $0.4 million from the write off an incentive grant receivable in the prior year period, and a benefit in the current period of $0.3 million from the release of a liability related to the FastPay acquisition which closed in July 2021. An additional increase of $1.6 million is attributable to restructuring costs from the restructuring plan initiated in the third quarter of 2022.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets associated with the acquisition of PayClearly customer assets, which closed in January 2022.

Payment revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 includes $8.5 million of payment revenue associated with the acquisition of FastPay from the first six months of 2022 and nine months of revenue from a customer list acquired from PayClearly in January 2022, representing activity during periods in which the comparable periods did not include a contribution from these acquisitions. Software revenue increased by $8.7 million, or 13.6%, primarily driven by increased invoice and payment transaction volume from new and existing customers and the inclusion of $0.2 million of software revenue associated with the acquisition of FastPay which closed in July 2021.

The increase in cost of revenues (excluding depreciation and amortization expense) was due primarily to an increase in employee costs of $7.1 million, including an increase in stock-based compensation of $2.9 million. This increase includes a $1.0 million impact related to headcount additions from our acquisition of FastPay, which closed in July 2021. We also experienced increases in IT infrastructure costs, including cloud hosting fees and software costs, of $3.2 million primarily related to our transition of services from data centers to cloud hosting. Additionally, we experienced increases in invoice and check processing fees of $1.7 million, consulting and contract labor of $0.5 million, and a $1.3 million increase in the reserve for Invoice Accelerator purchased invoices as we changed our estimate for the recoverability of supplier advance receivables. An additional increase of $1.2 million was attributable to the impact of deferred implementation costs as amortization costs continue to increase with the addition of new costs and a decrease in the costs deferred compared to the prior year. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $0.3 million for misdirected payments primarily due to higher costs in the comparable period.

Sales and Marketing Expenses
The increase in sales and marketing expenses was due primarily to an increase of $7.1 million in employee costs (net of capitalized sales commissions), driven by a $1.3 million impact related to headcount additions from the acquisition of FastPay and includes an increase in stock-based compensation of $3.0 million. We experienced increases in marketing costs of $2.4 million and travel expenses of $1.2 million as events and sales-related travel increased compared to the low levels we experienced in 2021 due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. We experienced increases in partner commissions of $0.8 million as well as additional increases in consulting of $0.7 million, recruiting of $0.3 million, and IT infrastructure and software costs of $0.7 million related to our transition of services from data centers to cloud hosting.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses increased primarily due to increased employee costs of $20.0 million. The investments in our platform are intended to increase the quality, reliability and efficiency of our technology. The increase in employee costs relates to both headcount and compensation increases and includes increases of $1.8 million associated with the acquisition of FastPay, stock-based compensation of $6.3 million, and annual bonus accrual of $2.4 million. We experienced additional increases of $1.4 million in IT infrastructure and software costs and $0.1 million in travel, recruiting and other costs. These increases were offset, in part, by a $1.6 million decrease in costs associated with engaging consultants and contractors and a reduction in expense associated with higher capitalization of internally developed software of approximately $1.0 million.

General and Administrative Expenses
The increase in general and administrative expenses is attributable to a $13.8 million increase in employee costs, including increases in stock-based compensation of $8.5 million and annual bonus accrual of $0.7 million. We also experienced an increase of $2.1 million in professional and consulting fees, contract labor, and insurance costs and a $0.8 million increase in accounting professional fees. The increases reflect the growth in our business and our transition to operating as a public company. The increases in employee costs include $0.2 million associated with the acquisition of FastPay, which closed in July 2021. These increases were offset, in part, by a reduction in transaction costs of $3.4 million attributable to deal-related costs incurred in the prior year period, a decrease of $0.4 million from the write off of an incentive grant receivable in the prior year period, a decrease of $0.3 million in recruiting, and a benefit in the current period of $0.3 million from the release of a liability related to the FastPay acquisition which closed in July 2021. An additional increase of $1.6 million is attributable to restructuring costs from the restructuring plan initiated in the third quarter of 2022. Other increases are attributable to i) facilities costs and rent totaling $1.3 million, of which $0.4 million was attributable to FastPay, ii) bad debt expense of $0.6 million, and iii) IT infrastructure and software costs of $1.4 million.
Impairment and Write-off of Intangible Assets
The impairment and write-off of intangible assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 relates to internally developed software projects.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased in absolute terms primarily due to the amortization of intangible assets associated with the acquisitions of FastPay, which closed in July 2021, and media customer assets from PayClearly, which closed in January 2022.

Stock-based Compensation
All of our RSUs outstanding prior to our IPO in October 2021 contained both service-based and performance-based vesting conditions. The performance-based condition was settled in connection with our IPO. No compensation expense was recognized for RSUs in periods prior to the fourth quarter of 2021.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We do not currently generate positive cash flow through our operations. We have financed our operations and capital expenditures primarily through sales of common and preferred stock and borrowings under our 2019 Credit Agreement, as defined below, and, more recently, our IPO that was completed in October 2021, which resulted in net proceeds of $621.4 million, including the exercise of the overallotment option and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $40.4 million and offering expenses of approximately $11.8 million. As of September 30, 2022, our principal sources of liquidity are our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $411.1 million, marketable securities of approximately $97.3 million and funds available under our existing term loan and revolving credit facilities, which we collectively refer to as the 2019 Credit Agreement. As of September 30, 2022, our unused committed capacity under the 2019 Credit Agreement was $21.2 million comprised of a delayed draw term loan and a revolving commitment.
30
We believe that our unrestricted cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and funds available under our 2019 Credit Agreement will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for at least the next twelve months. To the extent existing cash, marketable securities, cash from operations, and amounts available for borrowing under the 2019 Credit Agreement are insufficient to fund future activities, we may need to raise additional capital. In the future, we may attempt to raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities or through equity-linked or debt financing arrangements. If we raise additional capital by issuing equity or equity-linked securities, the ownership of our existing stockholders will be diluted. If we raise additional capital by the incurrence of additional indebtedness, we may be subject to increased fixed payment obligations and could also be subject to additional restrictive covenants, such as limitations on our ability to incur additional debt, and other operating restrictions that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business. Our ability to raise additional debt may be limited by applicable regulatory requirements as a licensed money transmitter that require us to meet certain net worth requirements. Any future indebtedness we incur may result in terms that could be unfavorable to equity investors. There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital. The inability to raise capital would adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objectives.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
Our primary source of cash provided by our operating activities is from our software and payment revenue. Our primary uses of cash in our operating activities include payments for employee salary and related costs, payments to third party service providers to execute our payment transactions, sales and marketing costs, and other general corporate expenditures.
Net cash used in operating activities decreased to $29.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $41.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 due primarily to an increase in revenue and changes in working capital from variations in the timing of receipts from customers and payments to vendors.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
Cash used in our investing activities consists primarily of the purchases of marketable securities, purchases of property and equipment, purchases of intangible assets, capitalization of internal-use software, and supplier advances related to our Invoice Accelerator product.
Net cash used in investing activities increased to $124.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $64.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to the purchase of marketable securities of $310.0 million as well as the acquisition of the customer list and non-compete agreement in our media payments market and increases in both internal-use software and cash invested in supplier advances, partially offset by the proceeds from the maturity of short-term investments in our portfolio of $213.9 million.
Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Financing Activities
Cash used in and provided by our financing activities consists primarily of changes in restricted buyer fund deposits related to buyer payment transactions, exercise of stock options, principal payments on financing leases, and borrowings under our 2019 Facility (as defined below).
Net cash used in financing activities was $311.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $737.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, due primarily to variations in the inflows and outflows from payment service obligations of our customers.

Credit Facilities
Our senior secured credit facility, which we refer to as the 2019 Facility, with Sixth Street and KeyBank makes available an aggregate amount of $133.5 million as of September 30, 2022. The 2019 Credit Agreement consists of the following:
Interest on the loans under the 2019 Facility is equal to LIBOR or a base rate, plus a margin. The applicable margin will be between 8.0% and 9.0% for the first three years, with the lower rate applicable for quarters in which we do not borrow from the Interest DDTL, and after the third anniversary will be 7.5% or 8.0% depending on whether the cash burn rate is greater than or less than negative $2.5 million. The base rate is equal to the higher of the current prime rate, federal funds effective rate plus 0.5%, or 4.0%. We may elect an interest period of up to three months in connection with a LIBOR rate loan. Per the terms of the 2019 Credit Agreement, the unavailability or replacement of LIBOR results in the use of a similar measure based upon a calculated average of borrowing rates offered by major banks in the London interbank as determined by Sixth Street.
From October 1, 2019 through the third anniversary date of the 2019 Credit Agreement, we may, on a quarterly basis, borrow under the Interest DDTL to finance up to 4.5% of the interest due on the 2019 term loans. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we borrowed $2.4 million at rates of 10.0% and 10.1%.
The maturity date for the 2019 term loans and Interest DDTL is April 1, 2024.
Borrowing increments on the 2019 revolver start at $0.5 million, with multiples of $0.1 million in excess of that amount. There was no balance outstanding under the facility as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The maturity date for the 2019 revolver is October 1, 2023. Borrowing availability under the 2019 revolver is reduced by the then current amount of the letter of credit dated October 1, 2019 and issued by KeyBank to secure our obligation to make payments under the lease related to our headquarters building in Charlotte, North Carolina. The current amount of the letter of credit is approximately $6.0 million and increases by approximately $0.1 million on October 1, 2022 and October 1, 2023.
Liquidity and Financial Covenants
Our 2019 Facility contains certain covenants and restrictions on actions, including limitations on the payment of dividends. In addition, the 2019 Facility requires that we comply with specified ratios on a monthly basis, including a maximum ratio of debt to recurring revenue and a minimum cash balance requirement. We were in compliance with our financial debt covenants as of September 30, 2022.
Land Promissory Note
On November 15, 2018, we signed a promissory note in connection with the purchase of two land parcels at our Charlotte, North Carolina headquarters campus. The principal amount of $5.0 million will be repaid in $1.0 million installments, plus accrued interest at a rate of 6.75%, due on each anniversary date, with final payment due on November 15, 2023. The note is collateralized by the land parcels and any future building to be situated on, or improvements to, the land. In December 2021 in connection with the purchase of additional land and improvements, the promissory note was modified to extend its term to November 15, 2025 and reduce the annual payment to $0.5 million.
In December 2021, we executed a promissory note in connection with the purchase of land and improvements adjacent to our Charlotte, North Carolina headquarters campus. The principal amount of $21.5 million will be repaid in four annual installments of $4.3 million, plus accrued interest at a rate of 6.75%, starting on December 1, 2022 and the final payment of $4.3 million plus accrued interest due on May 15, 2026. The note is collateralized by the land and improvements on the land.
We are current with all payments under the notes.
32
Issuances of Common Stock
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we issued 20,564 shares of common stock based on a per share price of $16.74, in settlement of contingent consideration related to the FastPay acquisition.
Payment Obligations
We process payments for our customers. As part of our payment product offering we have recorded payment service obligations in our consolidated balance sheets of $927.7 million as of September 30, 2022 and an offsetting asset of restricted funds held for customers. This balance is short-term in nature and represents our obligation to pay our customers' suppliers as directed by our customers.
The Company historically transmitted buyer customer funds using a legacy model pursuant to which buyer customer funds are held in trust accounts that are maintained and operated by a trustee pending distribution to suppliers in accordance with instructions provided through the Company’s platform. The Company is not the trustee or beneficiary of the trusts which hold these buyer deposits; accordingly, the Company does not record these assets and offsetting liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets. The Company has largely phased out this model although certain banks that resell our products and services continue to leverage a similar structure. The Company contractually earns interest on funds held for certain buyers. The amount of Company and bank customer funds held in all trust-related accounts was approximately $127.3 million and $123.6 million at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Having obtained a money transmitter license in all states which require licensure, the Company is providing commercial payment services to businesses through its “for the benefit of customer” bank accounts that are restricted for such purposes and is continuing to work towards transitioning away from the legacy trust model.
Contractual Obligations
There were no material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from the contractual obligations and commitments disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. See Note 10 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding contractual obligations and commitments.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us 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 consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported revenue generated, and reported expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as compared to the critical accounting policies and significant judgments and estimates disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 as filed with the SEC on March 14, 2022.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for recently adopted accounting pronouncements and recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted as of September 30, 2022.
Emerging Growth Company Status
We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, our consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with the new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. We expect to use the extended transition period for any other new or revised accounting standards during the period in which we remain an emerging growth company.
We will lose our status as an emerging growth company as of December 31, 2022.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Our overall investment portfolio is comprised of (i) our operating cash and (ii) buyer funds. Our operating cash includes cash received from revenues generated, the sale of common and preferred stock and increased borrowings. Buyer funds are funds that
33
have been collected from buyers, but not yet remitted to the applicable supplier. The funds are held in either company-owned accounts, which are subject to applicable state money transmitter laws, or in trust accounts. We are entitled to any interest earned on the investment of all buyer funds.
Our operating cash may be invested in accordance with our cash investment policy. Under that policy, we invest with the objective of preserving capital while optimizing yield. Permissible investments include U.S. Treasury instruments, U.S. Government Agency securities, commercial paper, investment grade corporate bonds and money market funds. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we purchased $310.0 million of permissible investments.
Our buyer funds assets are invested with safety of principal, liquidity, and diversification as the primary objectives. Consistent with these objectives, we also seek to maximize interest income and to minimize the volatility of interest income with emphasis on liquidity. Pursuant to our investment policy and subject to applicable law, buyer funds may be invested in U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. Government Agency securities, money market funds that invest in investment grade securities, or other cash equivalents, including certificates of deposit. As of September 30, 2022, all buyer funds have been invested in interest-bearing demand deposit accounts.
We are exposed to interest-rate risk relating to our investment portfolio, which consists principally of interest-bearing demand deposit accounts as well as investments made in accordance with our cash investment policy. We recognize interest earned from buyer funds assets as revenue. We generally do not pay interest to buyers. Factors that influence the rate of interest we earn include the short-term market interest rate environment and the weighting of balances by security type. The annualized interest rate earned on our investment of operating cash and funds held for buyers increased to 0.81% during the first nine months of fiscal year 2022 from 0.45% during fiscal year 2021. Based on current investment practices, an increase in the Federal Funds interest rate of 100 basis points would have changed our interest income in the first nine months of fiscal year 2022 from our investment of operating cash by approximately $3.9 million and our interest on buyer funds assets by approximately $6.5 million based upon the average balances for the first nine months of fiscal year 2022 of $530.1 million in operating cash investments and $859.6 million in buyer funds investments, respectively. In addition to interest rate risks, we also have exposure to risks associated with changes in laws and regulations that may affect buyer fund balances. For example, a change in regulations that restricts the permissible investment alternatives for buyer funds may reduce our interest earned revenue.
We are also exposed to interest-rate risk relating to existing variable rate bank borrowings. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had outstanding borrowings on variable rate debt of $106.4 million and $104.0 million, respectively. A 100 basis points increase in the variable rate would have resulted in incremental interest expense of $0.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Our interest-rate risk will continue to be impacted by the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy and response to the higher than normal level of inflation in the U.S. economy.
Credit Risk
We may be exposed to credit risk in connection with our investments. Cash deposits may at times exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Company limits. We limit credit risk by diversifying our portfolio, including a requirement that no more than 5% of invested funds may be held in the issues of a single corporation. Additionally, the minimum credit quality of any investment shall be not less than an ‘(A-) or (A3)’ rating equivalent from any single rating services based on ratings by any of Standard and Poor’s Ratings Services, Moody’s Investors Service, or Fitch Investor Services. The maximum maturity of any security in the portfolio shall not exceed 24 months. The weighted average maturity of the portfolio shall not exceed 12 months. In addition, maximum maturities of individual securities are further limited by the security type and cash segment of the investment. We are also exposed to credit risk related to the timing of payments made from buyer funds collected. We typically remit buyer funds to our buyers’ suppliers in advance of having good or confirmed funds collected from our buyers. Our buyers generally have three days to dispute transactions and if we remit funds in advance of receiving confirmation that no dispute was initiated by our buyer, then we could suffer a credit loss. We mitigate this credit exposure by leveraging our data assets to make credit underwriting decisions about whether to accelerate disbursements, managing exposure limits, and various controls in our operating systems.
We are also exposed to risks associated with our Invoice Accelerator product, in which our supplier customers can accelerate the receipt of payment for outstanding invoices before our buyers initiate the transfer of funds. If those invoices are not approved or the buyer does not transfer the requisite funds then we are exposed to the risk of not being able to recoup our advances to the supplier. We mitigate this risk through data analytics to determine which invoices are available for advance payment and also monitor the credit quality of suppliers.
Liquidity Risk
As part of our buyer funds investment strategy, we use the daily collection of funds from our buyers to satisfy other unrelated buyer funds obligations. We minimize the risk of not having funds collected from a buyer available at the time the buyer’s
34
obligation becomes due by collecting the buyer’s funds in advance of the timing of payment of the buyer’s obligation. As a result of this practice, we have consistently maintained the required level of buyer funds assets to satisfy all of our obligations.
Concentration Risk
A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from interchange fees earned on payment transactions processed from VCC service providers. Prior to 2022, our interchange fees were processed primarily through a single provider. To mitigate this concentration risk, we began processing a substantial portion of these transactions through a second provider during 2022. These two VCC providers together represented 54% and 53% of total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, and 63% of accounts receivable, net as of September 30, 2022.
Future regulation or changes by the payment networks could have a substantial impact on our revenue from VCC transactions. If interchange rates decline, whether due to actions by the payment networks, merchant/suppliers availing themselves of lower rates, or future regulation, our total operating revenues, operating results, prospects for future growth and overall business could be materially affected.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, and as a result of the material weaknesses described below, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level. In light of this fact, our management has performed additional analyses, reconciliations, and other post-closing procedures and has concluded that, notwithstanding the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly state, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Previously Identified Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 the following material weaknesses, which still exist as of the end of the period covered by this report:
These material weaknesses resulted in material misstatements related to our preferred stock, additional-paid-in-capital accounts, and the classification of cash flows from operating and investing activities as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019, which resulted in the restatement of the 2019 consolidated financial statements, errors identified and corrected in the aforementioned accounts as of and for the periods ended December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021, and in immaterial misstatements related to our cost of revenues, sales and marketing expense, research and development expense, general and administrative expense, and additional-paid-in-capital accounts, which resulted in the revision of our December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021 financial statements. Additionally, these material weaknesses could result in a misstatement of substantially all of our accounts or disclosures that such material weaknesses could result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
Remediation Plan for Material Weaknesses
As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q we have completed the following steps of our remediation plan.
While we have made significant progress in executing the remediation plan, including the hiring of technical accounting resources and the re-design and implementation of controls, the new resources and controls have not been in place and have not operated for a sufficient period of time as of September 30, 2022.
35
These material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the newly designed and implemented controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. We expect to perform operating effectiveness testing of the newly designed control activities during the fourth quarter of 2022.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
As described above in the "Remediation Plan for Material Weaknesses" section, there were changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter, which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we have been and will continue to be subject to legal proceedings and claims. We are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, if determined adversely to us, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. Defending such proceedings is costly and can impose a significant burden on management and employees. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There have been no material changes to the risk factors associated with our business previously disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
(a) Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
None.
(b) Use of Proceeds
Use of Proceeds from Initial Public Offering of Common Stock
On October 12, 2021, our Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (Reg. No. 333-259632), was declared effective in connection with the IPO of our common stock, pursuant to which we issued and sold 26,400,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The price per share to the public was $25.00. Gross proceeds from the IPO were $660.0 million and net proceeds, after deducting (i) underwriters’ discounts and commissions and (ii) offering expenses of approximately $12.1 million, were approximately $608.3 million. Following the sale of these shares, the offering terminated. Shares of our common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on October 13, 2021.
On October 15, 2021, we used $169.0 million of the net proceeds to redeem the shares of redeemable preferred stock issuable upon conversion of our senior preferred stock.
On November 15, 2021, the underwriters notified us of the partial exercise of the overallotment option. Upon closing on November 18, 2021, we issued 544,928 shares of common stock at the offering price of $25.00 per share and received net proceeds of $12.8 million after deducting underwriters' discounts and commissions.
There have been no material changes in the planned use of proceeds from the IPO from those described in our Final Prospectus. We have invested a portion of the funds received in short-term, interest bearing, investment-grade securities.
