Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements of PAR Technology Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X pertaining to interim financial statements as promulgated by the SEC. In the opinion of management, the Company's financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading and to provide a fair presentation of the Company's financial results for the interim period included in this Quarterly Report. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any future periods. The information included in this Quarterly Report should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”).

The results of operations of the Company's Government segment are reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented and the related assets and liabilities associated with the discontinued operations are classified as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023. All results and information in the condensed consolidated financial statements are presented as continuing operations and exclude the Government segment unless otherwise noted specifically as discontinued operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount 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 period. Significant items subject to these estimates and assumptions include revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, the recognition and measurement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations at fair value, the carrying amount of property, plant, and equipment including right-to-use assets and liabilities, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, valuation allowances for receivables, valuation of excess and obsolete inventories, and measurement of contingent consideration at fair value. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Cash Held on Behalf of Customers

Cash and cash equivalents and cash held on behalf of customers consist of the following:

The Company maintained bank balances that, at times, exceeded the federally insured limit during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company did not experience losses relating to these deposits and management does not believe that the Company is exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to these amounts.

Short-Term Investments

The carrying value of investment securities consist of the following:

The Company did not have any material gains or losses on these securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The estimated fair value of these securities approximated their carrying value as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Discontinued Operations

In determining whether a group of assets disposed of (or is to be disposed of) should be presented as a discontinued operation, the Company analyzes whether the group of assets disposed of represented a component of the entity; that is, whether it had historic operations and cash flows that were discrete both operationally and for financial reporting purposes. In addition, the Company considers whether the disposal represents a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results.

The assets and liabilities of a discontinued operation, other than goodwill, are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell. When a portion of a reporting unit that constitutes a business is to be disposed of, the goodwill associated with that business is included in the carrying amount of the business based on the relative fair values of the business to be disposed of and the portion of the reporting unit that will be retained. Interest is allocated to discontinued operations if the interest is directly attributable to the discontinued operations or is interest on debt that is required to be repaid as a result of the disposal.

Other Assets

Other assets include deferred implementation costs of $7.9 million and $8.8 million and deferred commissions of $3.6 million and $2.6 million at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Note 3 —Acquisitions

TASK Group Acquisition

On July 18, 2024 (New York Time), July 19, 2024 (Sydney Time) (the "TASK Closing Date"), the Company completed its acquisition of TASK Group, pursuant to a court-approved scheme of arrangement. On the TASK Closing Date, the Company paid TASK Group's shareholders approximately $131.5 million in cash consideration, and issued 2,163,393 shares of common stock at a price of $52.70 per share of Company common stock, for a total purchase consideration of $245.5 million. The Company acquired TASK Group to expand its footprint in the international foodservice vertical with TASK Group's Australia-based global foodservice transaction platform that offers international unified commerce solutions and loyalty and engagement solutions.

The Company incurred acquisition expenses related to the TASK Group Acquisition of approximately $2.9 million which are included in general and administrative in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The TASK Group Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for at their preliminarily determined respective fair values as of the TASK Closing Date. The fair value determinations were based on management's estimates and assumptions, with the assistance of independent valuation and tax consultants. Preliminary fair values are subject to measurement period adjustments within the permitted measurement period (up to one year from the TASK Closing Date) as management finalizes its procedures and net working capital adjustments (if any) are settled.

The following table presents management's preliminary purchase price allocation:

Intangible Assets

The Company identified three acquired intangible assets in the TASK Group Acquisition: developed technology; customer relationships; and trade names split across the TASK and Plexure product lines. The preliminary fair values of developed technology and customer relationship intangible assets were determined utilizing the “multi-period excess earnings method”, which method is predicated upon the calculation of the net present value of after-tax net cash flows respectively attributable to each asset. The Company applied aseven-year economic life and discount rate of 12.5% in determining the Plexure developed technology and aseven-year economic life and discount rate of 14.0% in determining the TASK developed technology preliminary intangible fair values. The Company applied a 10.0% estimated annual attrition rate and a discount rate of 14.0% for the TASK customer relationships and applied a 95.0% probability of renewal factor and a discount rate of 12.5% for the

Plexure customer relationships intangible preliminary fair values. The preliminary fair value of trade names intangible was determined utilizing the “relief from royalty” approach, which is a form of the income approach that attributes savings recognized from not having to pay a royalty for the use of an asset. The Company applied a fair and reasonable royalty rate of 0.5% and a discount rate of 12.5% for the TASK trade name and a fair and reasonable royalty rate of 0.5% and a discount rate of 14.0% in determining the Plexure trade name intangible preliminary fair values. The estimated useful life of each of the foregoing identifiable intangible assets was preliminarily determined to be: seven years for developed technology; thirteen years for customer relationships; andeight years for the trade names.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of consideration transferred for the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired and is tested for impairment at least annually. The goodwill value represents expected synergies from the product acquired and other benefits. It is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Deferred Taxes

The Company determined the deferred tax position to be recorded at the time of the TASK Group Acquisition in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, resulting in recognition of $20.3 million in deferred tax liabilities for future reversal of taxable temporary differences primarily for intangible assets.

Stuzo Acquisition

On March 8, 2024, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Stuzo Blocker, Inc., Stuzo Holdings, LLC and their subsidiaries (collectively, “Stuzo” and such acquisition, the “Stuzo Acquisition”), a digital engagement software provider to convenience and fuel retailers ("C-Stores"), for purchase consideration of approximately $170.5 million paid in cash (the "Cash Consideration"), subject to certain adjustments (including customary adjustments for Stuzo cash, debt, debt-like items, and net working capital), and $19.2 million paid in shares of Company common stock.441,598 shares of common stock were issued as purchase consideration, determined using a fair value share price of $43.41. The Company acquired Stuzo to expand its footprint in the C-Stores market vertical with Stuzo's industry-leading guest engagement platform (PAR Retail) serving major brands in the space.

$1.5 million of the Cash Consideration was deposited into an escrow account administered by a third party to fund potential post-closing adjustments and obligations. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the escrow account was released in full.

The Company incurred acquisition expenses related to the Stuzo Acquisition of approximately $2.9 million which are included in general and administrative in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Stuzo Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for at their preliminarily determined respective fair values as of March 8, 2024, (the "Stuzo Acquisition Date"). The fair value determinations were based on management's estimates and assumptions, with the assistance of independent valuation and tax consultants. Preliminary fair values are subject to measurement period adjustments within the permitted measurement period (up to one year from the Stuzo Acquisition Date) as management finalizes its procedures and net working capital adjustments (if any) are settled.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, preliminary fair values of assets and liabilities as of the Stuzo Acquisition Date were adjusted to reflect ongoing acquisition valuation analyses and net working capital adjustments. These adjustments included changes to accrued expenses and goodwill to reflect changes in underlying fair value assumptions. The Company is in the process of finalizing valuation assumptions for the intangibles and the sales tax liability exposure as of the Stuzo Acquisition Date.

The following table presents management's current purchase price allocation and the initial purchase price allocation:

Intangible Assets

The Company identified four acquired intangible assets in the Stuzo Acquisition: developed technology; customer relationships; trademarks; and non-competition agreements. The preliminary fair values of developed technology and customer relationship intangible assets were determined utilizing the “multi-period excess earnings method”, which method is predicated upon the calculation of the net present value of after-tax net cash flows respectively attributable to each asset. The Company applied aseven-year economic life and discount rate of 12.5% in determining the Stuzo developed technology preliminary intangible fair value and applied a 7.0% estimated annual attrition rate and discount rate of 12.5% in determining the Stuzo customer relationships intangible preliminary fair value. The preliminary fair value of trademarks intangible was determined utilizing the “relief from royalty” approach, which is a form of the income approach that attributes savings recognized from not having to pay a royalty for the use of an asset. The Company applied a fair and reasonable royalty rate of 1.0% and discount rate of 12.5% in determining the trademarks intangible preliminary fair value. The preliminary fair value of the Stuzo non-competition agreements was determined utilizing the discounted earnings method. The estimated useful life of each of the foregoing identifiable intangible assets was preliminarily determined to be: seven years for developed technology; fifteen years for customer relationships related to SaaS platform and related support; five years for customer relationships related to managed platform development services; indefinite for the trademarks; andfive years for the non-competition agreements.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of consideration transferred for the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired and is tested for impairment at least annually. The goodwill value represents expected synergies from the product acquired and other benefits. It is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Deferred Taxes

The Company determined the deferred tax position to be recorded at the time of the Stuzo Acquisition in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, resulting in recognition of $7.9 million in deferred tax liabilities for future reversal of taxable temporary differences primarily for intangible assets.

The net deferred tax liability relating to the Stuzo Acquisition was determined by the Company to provide future taxable temporary differences that allow for the Company to utilize certain previously fully reserved deferred tax assets. Accordingly, the Company recognized a reduction to its valuation allowance resulting in a net tax benefit of $7.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Pro Forma Financial Information - unaudited

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Stuzo Acquisition resulted in additional revenues of $10.7 million and $23.4 million, respectively, and income before income taxes of $1.6 million and $3.4 million, respectively; and the TASK Group Acquisition resulted in additional revenues of $9.6 million and $9.6 million, respectively, and loss before income taxes of $(0.1) million and $(0.1) million, respectively.

The following table summarizes the Company's unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 as if the TASK Group Acquisition and Stuzo Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023:

The unaudited pro forma results presented above are for illustrative purposes only and do not reflect the realization of actual cost savings or any related integration costs. The unaudited pro forma results do not purport to be indicative of the results that would have been obtained, or to be a projection of results that may be obtained in the future. These unaudited pro forma results include certain adjustments, primarily due to increases in amortization expense due to the fair value adjustments of intangible assets, acquisition related costs and the impact of income taxes on the pro forma adjustments. $5.4 million of acquisition costs have been reflected in the 2023 pro forma results.

Note 4 —Discontinued Operations

On June 7, 2024 (the “PGSC Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. ("Booz Allen Hamilton") for the sale of PAR Government Systems Corporation ("PGSC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on the Closing Date, Booz Allen Hamilton acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of PGSC for a cash purchase price of $95.0 million, before customary post-closing adjustments based on PGSC’s indebtedness, working capital, cash, and transaction expenses at closing. At closing we entered into a transition services agreement with Booz Allen Hamilton pursuant to which the Company and Booz Allen Hamilton provide certain transitional services to each other as contemplated by and subject to the Purchase Agreement. The service period for the transitional services generally ends during the third quarter of 2025.

On July 1, 2024 (the "RRC Closing Date"), the Company sold 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Rome Research Corporation ("RRC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to NexTech Solutions Holdings, LLC ("NexTech") for a cash purchase price of $7.0 million, before customary post-closing adjustments based on RRC’s indebtedness, working capital, cash, and transaction expenses at closing. At closing we entered into a transition services agreement with NexTech pursuant to which the Company and NexTech provide certain transitional services to each other as contemplated by and subject to the transition services agreement. The service period for the transitional services generally ends during the third quarter of 2025.

The sale of PGSC and RRC comprise the sale of 100% of the Company's Government segment. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain on sale of $77.2 million from the sale of PGSC and RRC in the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, within 120 days following the PGSC Closing Date Booz Allen Hamilton is required to deliver to the Company a closing statement setting forth its determination of net working capital and any resulting net working capital surplus or deficit. To the extent there is an adjustment to net working capital, as agreed to by the Company and Booz Allen Hamilton pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, any such change will be recorded as an adjustment to the gain on sale of discontinued operations for the period such change occurs.

Pursuant to the sale of RRC, $0.7 million of the cash purchase price was deposited into an escrow account administered by a third party to fund potential post-closing adjustments and obligations. As of September 30, 2024, the balance in the escrow account remained at $0.7 million. Within 90 days following the RRC Closing Date NexTech is required to deliver to the Company a closing statement setting forth its determination of net working capital and any resulting net working capital surplus or deficit. To the extent there is an adjustment to net working capital, as agreed to by the Company and NexTech pursuant to the sale, any such change will be recorded as an adjustment to the gain on sale of discontinued operations for the period such change occurs.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company estimated the federal taxable gain on sale for PGSC and RRC to be $74.6 million, however, we expect to offset the taxable gain through the utilization of several tax benefits including $41.8 million of our net operating loss carryforwards, $22.4 million of our Section 163(j) interest expense limitation carryforwards, and $1.6 million of our research and development tax credits. Additionally, the income tax associated with the gain will be impacted by the final allocation of the sales price, which may be materially different from the Company’s estimates. The impact of changes in estimated income tax (if any) will be recorded as an adjustment to discontinued operations in the period such change in estimate occurs.

The Company incurred expenses related to its disposition of PGSC and RRC of approximately $6.9 million which are included in net income from discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The accounting requirements for reporting the disposition of PGSC and RRC as discontinued operations were met when the disposition of PGSC was completed and the sale of RRC was deemed probable. Accordingly, the historical results of PGSC and RRC have been presented as discontinued operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations for all periods presented.

The following table presents the major classes of assets and liabilities of discontinued operations for PGSC and RRC as of December 31, 2023:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (observable)

Level 2 — inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable market data for essentially the full term of the asset or liability (observable)

Level 3 — unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, but are significant to determining the fair value of the asset or liability (unobservable)

The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, cash held on behalf of customers, short-term investments, debt instruments and deferred compensation assets and liabilities. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, cash held on behalf of customers, and short-term investments as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were considered representative of their fair values because of their short-term nature and are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Debt instruments are recorded at principal amount net of unamortized debt issuance cost and discount (refer to "Note 8 - Debt" for additional information). The estimated fair value of the 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes"),1.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the "2027 Notes"), and the Credit Facility at September 30, 2024 was $161.5 million, $264.4 million, and $88.7 million respectively. As the Credit Facility has a variable interest rate and has no equity component, the book value of the Credit Facility is equal to the fair value. The estimated fair value of the 2026 Notes and 2027 Notes at December 31, 2023 was $145.6 million and $236.1 million respectively. The valuation techniques used to determine the fair value of the Company's long-term debt are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as they are derived from broker quotations.

Deferred compensation assets and liabilities primarily relate to the Company’s deferred compensation plan, which allows for pre-tax salary deferrals for certain employees. Changes in the fair value of the deferred compensation liabilities are derived using quoted prices in active markets of the asset selections made by plan participants. Deferred compensation liabilities are classified in Level 2, the fair value classification as defined under FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, because their inputs are derived principally from observable market data by correlation to the hypothetical investments. The Company holds insurance investments to partially offset the Company’s liabilities under its deferred compensation plan, which are recorded at fair value each period using the cash surrender value of the insurance investments.

The cash surrender value of the life insurance policy waszero and $3.3 million at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and is included in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amounts owed to employees participating in the deferred compensation plan at September 30, 2024 were $0.1 million compared to $0.4 million at December 31, 2023 and are included in other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company uses a Monte Carlo simulation of a discounted cash flow model to determine the fair value of the earn-out liability associated with the acquisition of MENU Technologies AG (the "MENU Acquisition"). Significant inputs used in the simulation are not observable in the market and thus the liability represents a Level 3 fair value measurement as defined in ASC 820. Ultimately, the liability will be equivalent to the amount paid, and the difference between the fair value estimate and amount paid will be recorded in earnings. The amount paid that is less than or equal to the liability on the acquisition date will be reflected as cash used in financing activities in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Any amount paid in excess of the liability on the acquisition date will be reflected as cash used in operating activities.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company determined that there would be no earn-out payment related to the MENU Acquisition. As such, the Company reduced the fair value of the earn-out liability to zero. The earn-out period expired on July 31, 2024 with no payment made.

The following table presents the changes in the estimated fair values of the Company’s liabilities for contingent consideration measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the nine months ended September 30:

The balance of the fair value of the liability was recorded within "Accrued expenses" in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The change in fair value of contingent consideration was recorded within "Adjustment to contingent consideration liability" in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The following table provides quantitative information associated with the fair value measurement of the Company’s liabilities for contingent consideration as of December 31, 2023:
