2023 Follow-On Public Offering
On August 9, 2023, the Company entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, as the representative of the several Underwriters, in connection with the offer and sale of 8,000,000 shares of voting common stock, at a price to the public of $32.00 per share (the Primary Offering). In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters an option to purchase up to 1,200,000 additional shares of common stock (the Option).
The Primary Offering closed on August 14, 2023 and on September 12, 2023, the Underwriters exercised the Option in part and purchased an additional 500,000 shares of voting common stock at a price to the public of $32.00 per share (the Public Offering). The Company received $260.1 million in net proceeds from the Public Offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $10.9 million and other offering costs of $1.1 million. The Company has used the net proceeds from the Public Offering for general corporate purposes and to fund acquisitions.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’ equity, and its cash flows for the periods presented.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2025, any other interim periods or any future year or period. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted from the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Flywire and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Segment Information
The Company has asingle operating and reportable segment. See Note 3 – Segment Information for additional details regarding the Company's significant segment expenses.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, the valuation of certain stock-based compensation awards, the valuation of contingent consideration, the valuation of acquired intangible assets and their useful lives, the estimate of credit losses on accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and available-for-sale debt securities, the assessment of other-than-temporary impairment of available-for-sale debt securities, intangibles and other long-lived assets and the incremental borrowing rates for operating leases. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates as there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results may differ from those estimates or assumptions.
Impact of Inflation
Inflation did not have a material effect on the Company's cash flows and results of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Concentrations of Credit Risk, Financial Instruments and Significant Clients
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consists principally of cash, cash equivalents, investments in available-for-sale debt securities, accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and funds receivable from payment partners.
The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions that management believes are of high credit quality. Our cash equivalents include money market funds, which are AAA-rated and comprised of liquid, high quality debt securities issued by the U.S. government. The Company's cash and cash equivalents deposited with the financial institutions exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit of $250,000. As part of its cash management process, the Company performs periodic reviews of the credit standing of the financial institutions holding its cash and cash equivalents. Additionally, to mitigate credit risk associated with financial institutions, the Company diversifies its cash and cash equivalents across multiple financial institutions and U.S. Treasury Money Market Funds. U.S. Treasuries, by their nature, create a concentration of credit risk with the U.S. Government. The Company's access to its cash and cash equivalents and client funds could be significantly impacted in volatile markets given our concentration in government money market funds.
To manage credit risk associated with investments in available-for-sale debt securities, the Company monitors credit ratings of the issuers of the securities and diversifies its investments by limiting its holding in any one security or issuer.
To manage credit risk related to accounts receivable and unbilled receivables, the Company maintains an allowance for credit losses. The allowance is determined by applying a loss-rate method based on an aging schedule using the Company's historical loss rate. The Company also considers reasonable and supportable current and forecasted information in determining its estimated loss rates, such as external forecasts, macroeconomic trends, or other factors that are associated with the credit quality of the Company’s customer base. The Company did not experience any material credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
Accounts receivable are derived from revenue earned from clients located in the U.S. and internationally. There were no clients that represented 10% or more of the accounts receivable balance at March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.
Funds receivable from payment partners consist primarily of cash held by the Company’s global payment processing partners that have not yet been remitted to the Company. Significant partners are those that represent 10% or more of funds receivable from payment partners as set forth in the following table:
| March 31,2025 | December 31,2024 | |
|---|---|---|
| Partner A | 10% | 19% |
| Partner B | * | 11% |
| Partner C | 55% | 28% |
- Less than 10% of total balance.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, noclient accounted for 10% or more of total revenue.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1 - Business Overview and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling and marketing expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Advertising expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were $1.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
There were no recent accounting pronouncements adopted by Flywire during the quarter ended March 31, 2025.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
The following Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) were issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board but not yet adopted by Flywire as of March 31, 2025:
ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures: ASU 2023-09 requires public business entities to disclose on an annual basis additional information in specified categories with respect to the reconciliation of the effective tax rate to the statutory rate for federal, state, and foreign income taxes. It also requires greater detail about individual reconciling items in the rate reconciliation to the extent the impact of those items exceeds a specified threshold. In addition, ASU 2023-09 requires disclosure pertaining to taxes paid, net of refunds received, to be disaggregated for federal, state, and foreign taxes and further disaggregated for specific jurisdictions to the extent the related amounts exceed a quantitative threshold. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company for the annual period beginning on January 1, 2025. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis. However, companies have the option to apply the standard retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses: ASU 2024-03 is intended to improve the disclosures of expenses by providing more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The ASU requires entities to disclose the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization included in each relevant expense caption; as well as a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. The amendment also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expense and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for the Company for the annual period beginning on January 1, 2027, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning January 1, 2028. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Note 4. Investments
During 2024, the Company began investing in a diversified portfolio of highly rated marketable debt securities, all of which are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale debt securities with remaining maturities of greater than three months but less than one year and those identified by management at the time of purchase to be used to fund operations within one year are classified as short-term. All other available-for-sale securities are classified as long-term. Available-for-sale debt securities with readily determinable market values are recorded at fair value, and unrealized holding gains and temporary losses are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of related estimated tax.
The Company evaluates its available-for-sale debt securities for other-than-temporary impairment on a quarterly basis. When a decline in fair value is determined to be other-than-temporary, the cost of the investment is adjusted to fair value by recording a loss on investments in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Gains and losses on investments are calculated on the basis of specific identification. The Company reviews several factors to determine whether a loss is other-than-temporary, such as the length and extent of the fair value decline, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, market conditions and trends and whether the Company has the intent to sell or will more likely than not be required to sell before the securities' anticipated recovery, which may be at maturity.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of available-for-sale debt securities included within short-term and long-term investments as of March 31, 2025 (in thousands):

Unrealized losses have not been recognized into income (loss) as the Company neither intends to sell, nor anticipates that it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell, the securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis. The decline in fair value is due primarily to changes in market interest rates, rather than credit losses. Based on the evaluation of available evidence, the Company does not believe any unrealized losses represent other than temporary impairments.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company received proceeds of $98.7 million from the sale of short-term and long-term investments, primarily used to partially pay down the outstanding debt under the Company's revolving credit facility used for the Sertifi acquisition, There have beenno signifi cant realized gains or losses on the sale of short-term and long-term investments during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Note 5. Fair Value Measurements
Certain assets and liabilities are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.
The Company’s cash equivalents are carried at fair value (Level 1) as determined according to the fair value hierarchy described above. The Company’s cash equivalents include money market funds, which are measured at fair value using the net asset value (NAV) per share practical expedient. The money market funds, which are AAA-rated are comprised of liquid, high-quality debt securities issued by the U.S. government. Shares in money market funds are purchased and redeemed at the NAV at the time of the purchase or sale, which may be purchased or redeemed on demand, as may be required by the Company. The Company's investments in available-for-sale debt securities are carried at fair value, determined using Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy as quoted prices are available to support the valuation. The carrying values of accounts receivable, funds receivable from payment partners, unbilled receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, funds payable to clients and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities. The Company’s contingent consideration is carried at fair value, determined using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
The following tables present the Company’s fair value hierarchy for its financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in thousands):

Contingent consideration
Sertifi LLC (Sertifi)
The fair value of the contingent consideration related to the gross profit milestones from the Company’s acquisition of Sertifi in February 2025 was determined using an option pricing model and the fair value of the contingent consideration related to the technology and security milestones was determined using a scenario-based method. Refer to Note 10 - Business Combinations for additional details on the Sertifi acquisition. The following table presents the unobservable inputs incorporated into the valuation of contingent consideration as of March 31, 2025.
| Discount rate | 6.6% | |
|---|---|---|
| Probability of successful achievement * | 37% - 50% |
*Probability of successful achievement was set at different targets based on the Company’s estimates on achieving them. The weighted average probability of successful achievement as of March 31, 2025 was 40.9%.
Increases or decreases in the discount rate would result in a lower or higher fair value measurement, respectively. Increases or decreases in any of the probabilities of success in which the revenue, top customers, product and IT milestones are expected to be achieved would result in higher or lower fair value measurement, respectively.
Invoiced Inc. (Invoiced)
The fair value of the contingent consideration related to the revenue milestones from the Company’s acquisition of Invoiced in August 2024 was determined using an option pricing model and the fair value of the contingent consideration related to the cross-selling, product and security and information technology (IT) milestones was determined using a scenario-based method. Refer to Note 10 - Business Combinations for additional details on the Invoiced acquisition. The following table presents the unobservable inputs incorporated into the valuation of contingent consideration as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

On February 24, 2025, Flywire acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Sertifi LLC (Sertifi) for upfront cash consideration of $330.0 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments set forth in the Purchase and Sale Agreement (the Agreement), and contingent consideration of up to $10 million upon the completion or satisfaction of certain technical and commercial milestones by Sertifi. Sertifi is a vertical software and payments platform digitizing hospitality-specific workflows and associated payments. The acquisition of Sertifi was intended to accelerate the Company’s travel business and expand Flywire’s offerings to support over 20,000 hotel locations globally.
The Company paid the upfront cash consideration through a combination of cash on hand and $125.0 million borrowed from its existing 2024 Revolving Credit Facility.
The Company has performed initial valuation analyses necessary to assess the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the amount of goodwill to be recognized as of the acquisition date. These fair values were based on management’s estimates and assumptions; however, the amounts indicated are preliminary in nature and are subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Accordingly, there may be adjustments to the assigned values of acquired assets and liabilities assumed. Areas that remain preliminary primarily relate to net working capital adjustments, fair values of deferred revenue and the key underlying judgments and assumptions used in the acquired intangible assets, asset lives, as well as any changes to residual goodwill resulting from measurement period adjustments. The final determination of acquisition date fair values and residual goodwill will be completed as soon as practicable, and within the measurement period of up to one year from the acquisition date as permitted under GAAP. Any adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period will be recorded in the reporting period in which the adjustment is determined.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company acquired Sertifi for estimated total purchase consideration of approximately $335.9 million or $327.8 million, net of cash acquired, which consisted of (in thousands):

Note 12. Debt
2024 Revolving Credit Facility
On February 23, 2024, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement for a five-year senior secured revolving credit syndication loan (2024 Revolving Credit Facility) with four banks for a total commitment of $125.0 million. The 2024 Revolving Credit Facility provides for an incremental facility in an amount equal to $50.0 million plus 100% of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA based on the most recent consolidated financial information. In addition, the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility includes a $10.0 million letter of credit sub-facility and a $5.0 million swingline sub-facility, with available borrowings under the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility reduced by the amount of any letters of credit and swingline borrowings outstanding from time to time. The 2024 Revolving Credit Facility is guaranteed by Flywire’s current and future material domestic subsidiaries.
The 2024 Revolving Credit Facility replaced the three-year senior secured revolving credit syndication loan (2021 Revolving Credit Facility) of $50.0 million entered into in July 2021, under which $50.0 million was available to Flywire as of December 31, 2023. Three of the lenders under the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility were existing lenders under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility.
In connection with the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of $0.8 million. Debt issuance costs related to the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility are amortized on a straight-line basis over the contractual term of the agreement and are presented as a component of other assets on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Debt issuance costs of $0.1 million related to the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility will continue to be amortized on a straight-line basis over the contractual term of the new agreement and are presented as a component of other assets on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. The exchange of the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility with the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility from the same lenders was accounted for as a modification.
The 2024 Revolving Credit Facility consists of Alternate Base Rate (ABR) borrowings or Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) borrowings, at the Company’s option.
ABR borrowings bear interest at the ABR plus the applicable rate. Term SOFR borrowings bear interest at the Adjusted Term SOFR for the interest period plus the applicable rate. The ABR rate is based on the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 1/2 of 1%, or (c) the Adjusted Term SOFR for a one-month interest period, plus 1%. The Adjusted Term SOFR is equal to the sum of (a) Term SOFR for such interest period, plus (b) the SOFR adjustment of 0.10%. The applicable rate is based upon the Company’s consolidated total net leverage ratio as of the most recent consolidated financial information and ranges from 1.0% to 2.5%. The 2024 Revolving Credit Facility incurs a commitment fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.35% based upon the Company’s consolidated total net leverage ratio as of the most recent consolidated financial information assessed on the average available commitment.
The 2024 Revolving Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants and restrictions typical for a financing of this type that, among other things, require the Company to satisfy certain financial covenants and restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional debt, pay dividends and make distributions, make certain investments and acquisitions, repurchase its stock and prepay certain indebtedness, create liens, enter into agreements with affiliates, modify the nature of its business, enter into sale-leaseback transactions, transfer and sell material assets and merge or consolidate. Non-compliance with one or more of the covenants and restrictions could result in the full or partial principal balance of the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility becoming immediately due and payable and termination of the commitments. The Company was in compliance with all covenants associated with the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility as of March 31, 2025.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company drew down $125.0 million under the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility in connection with the acquisition of Sertifi. During thethree months ended March 31, 2025, the Company also repaid $65.0 million against the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility. The outstanding balance of the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility was $60.0 million at March 31, 2025, which is due and payable in February 2029 and is classified as long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. There was no outstanding balance of the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility at December 31, 2024.
2021 Revolving Credit Facility
On July 29, 2021, the Company entered into the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility with three banks for a total commitment of $50.0 million. The 2021 Revolving Credit Facility included a $5.0 million letter of credit sub-facility and a $5.0 million swingline sub-facility, with available borrowings under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility reduced by the amount of any letters of credit and swingline borrowings outstanding from time to time. The 2021 Revolving Credit Facility was guaranteed by Flywire’s material domestic subsidiaries.
The 2021 Revolving Credit Facility consisted of ABR loans or Eurodollar Borrowings, at the Company’s option.
On June 23, 2023, the Company executed the First Amendment to the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility to transition determination of the interest rate from the LIBOR benchmark rate to the SOFR benchmark rate effective June 30, 2023.
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there wasno outstanding indebtedness under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility.
Interest expense for each of the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was $0.7 and $0.1 million, respectively. Included in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 is less than $0.1 million of amortization of debt issuance costs.
Letter of Credit
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had an outstanding and unused letter of credit in the amount of approximately $2.5 million, for the purpose of protecting a third-party service provider against default on payroll payments.

Holdersof the Company's voting common stock have no conversion rights while each share of non-voting common stock automatically converts into common stock on a one-to-one basis without the payment of additional consideration uponthe transfer thereof in (i) a widespread public distribution, including pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (ii) a transfer (including a private placement or a sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act) in which no one party acquires the right to purchase 2% or more of any class of voting securities (as such term is used for the purposes of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended), (iii) an assignment to a single party (for example, a broker or investment banker) for the purposes of conducting a widespread public distribution, or (iv) to a party who would control more than 50% of the Company's voting securities without giving effect to the shares of non-voting common stock transferred by the holder. Other than in the event of such transfers, shares of non-voting common stock shall not be convertible into any other security.
Share Repurchase Program
On August 6, 2024, the Company announced a share repurchase program of up to $150 million of outstanding voting and non-voting common stock for an indefinite period as part of the Company’s capital deployment strategy (Repurchase Program).
Repurchases under the Repurchase Program may be made from time to time through open market purchases, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in accordance with applicable securities laws and other restrictions, including Rule 10b-18. The timing, value and number of shares repurchased will be determined by the Company in its discretion and will be based on various factors, including an evaluation of current and future capital needs, current and forecasted cash flows, the Company’s capital structure, cost of capital and prevailing stock prices, general market and economic conditions, applicable legal requirements, and compliance with covenants in the Company’s credit facility that may limit share repurchases based on defined leverage ratios. The Repurchase Program does not obligate the Company to purchase a specific number of, or any, shares and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time without notice at the Company’s discretion.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurch ased 3,562,643 shares of its common stock for an aggregate amount, including commissions and accrued excise tax, of $48.4 million under the Repurchase Program. The repurchased shares are currently being held as treasury stock. As of March 31, 2025, approximately $57.0 million of the originally authorized amount under the Repurchase Program remained available for future repurchases.
All of the Company’s repurchases are subject to a one percent excise tax enacted by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the IRA). The amount of share repurchases subject to the excise tax are reduced by the fair market value of any shares issued during the taxable year. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company accrued $0.5 million of related excise tax pursuant to the IRA which is included in the cost of treasury stock on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Treasury Stock
The Company may issue treasury stock upon the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units granted under its equity incentive plans. The Company issued 19,182 treasury shares at an average cost of $9.91 per share during thethree months ended March 31, 2025. The Company issued 14,504 treasury shares at an average cost of $0.30 per share during thethree months ended March 31, 2024. The Company intends to issue treasury shares as long as an adequate number of those shares are available.

Note 14. Stock-Based Compensation
Equity Incentive Plan
In April 2021, the Company’s board of directors adopted, and in May 2021 its stockholders approved the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2021 Plan).
No further awards are being made under the Company’s 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the 2009 Plan) or the Company’s 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2018 Plan); however, awards outstanding under each of the 2009 Plan and 2018 Plan will continue to be governed by their existing terms. With the establishment of the 2021 Plan, upon the expiration, forfeiture, cancellation, or reacquisition of any stock-based awards granted under the 2009 Plan or 2018 Plan, an equal number of shares will become available for grant under the 2021 Plan. The 2021 Plan, 2018 Plan and 2009 Plan are collectively referred to as the “Equity Incentive Plans”.
The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance awards and other forms of equity compensation (collectively, equity awards). A total of 26,116,754 shares of the Company’s common stock have been reserved for issuance under the 2021 Plan in addition to (i) any annual automatic evergreen increases in the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2021 Plan and (ii) upon the expiration, forfeiture, cancellation, or reacquisition of any stock-based awards granted under the 2009 Plan or 2018 Plan, an equal number of shares of common stock will become available for grant under the 2021 Plan.
As of March 31, 2025, a total of 16,263,616 shares of the Company's common stock were available for future issuance under the 2021 Plan.
Stock Options
Stock options granted under the 2009 Plan, 2018 Plan and the 2021 Plan generally vest based on continued service over four years and expire withinten years from the date of grant. Any options that are canceled or forfeited before expiration become available for future grants.
The Company did not grant any options to purchase shares of common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
As of March 31, 2025, there was $1.4 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.63 years.
Restricted Stock Units
Starting in 2021, the Company awarded restricted stock units to employees and certain non-employee board members under the 2021 Plan. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company awarded restricted stock units covering an aggregate of 7.1 million shares of common stock. The fair value of each restricted stock unit is estimated based on the fair value of the Company's common stock on the date of the grant. The restricted stock units vest over the requisite service period, which range betweenone andfour years from the date of the grant, subject to the continued employment of the employees and service of the non-employee board members.
As of March 31, 2025, there was $171.6 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock units, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.10 years.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In April 2021, the Company’s board of directors adopted, and in May 2021 its stockholders approved, the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), which became effective on May 28, 2021. The ESPP authorizes the issuance of shares of common stock pursuant to purchase rights granted to "eligible employees". A total of 5,082,470 shares of common stock have been reserved for future issuance under the ESPP, in addition to any annual automatic evergreen increases in the number of shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under the ESPP. The price at which common stock is purchased under the ESPP is equal to 85% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the first or last day of the offering period, whichever is lower. Eligible employees can contribute up to the lesser of 15% of their eligible compensation and the IRS limit. Offering periods are generally 6 months long.
As of March 31, 2025, a total of 5,750,600 shares of the Company's common stock were available for future issuance under the ESPP.
The fair value of the ESPP offering during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was estimated at the start of the offering period using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: (i) expected term of 0.5 years, (ii) expected volatility of 61.91%, (iii) risk-free interest rate of 5.24% and (iv) expected dividend yield of 0%.
As of March 31, 2025, the total unrecognized compensation expense related to the ESPP was $0.3 million, which is expected to be amortized over the next 3 months.
Stock-Based Compensation Costs
The following table summarizes the stock-based compensation expense for (i) stock options and restricted stock units granted to employees and non-employee board members and (ii) ESPP shares that were purchased by employees that were recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) (in thousands):
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Technology and development | $3,217 | $2,592 |
| Selling and marketing | 4,560 | 3,960 |
| General and administrative | 8,226 | 8,290 |
| Restructuring | 2,215 | — |
| Total stock-based compensation expense | $18,218 | $14,842 |
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation was charged to internal-use software.
On November 6, 2023, the Company entered into a Transition Agreement with its previous Chief Financial Officer (Prior CFO). Pursuant to the terms of the Transition Agreement (including the receipt by the Company of a release from the Prior CFO), the Company agreed to modify its Prior CFO's outstanding stock options and restricted stock units to (i)
accelerate vesting for nine months from the date of the termination of the Prior CFOs employment with the Company (the Separation Date), and (ii) extend the exercise period of his vested nonqualified stock options from ninety days to one year following the Separation Date. To receive these benefits, the Prior CFO had to remain employed through March 31, 2024. As a result of this modification, the Company recognized additional compensation expense of $1.3 million during thethree months ended March 31, 2024. There wasno additional compensation expense recognized as a result of this modification during thethree months ended March 31, 2025.
Note 15. Net Loss per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders is computed by adjusting net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders to reallocate undistributed earnings based on the potential impact of dilutive securities. Diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the diluted net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, including all potentially dilutive common shares, if the effect of such shares is dilutive. The dilutive effect of outstanding equity incentive awards is reflected in diluted net income (loss) per share by application of the treasury stock method.
In periods in which the Company reports a net loss attributable to common stockholders, diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, since dilutive common shares are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024; accordingly, basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders was the same as diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders.
The rights, including the liquidation and dividend rights, of the voting and non-voting common stock are identical, except with respect to voting rights. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis to each class of common stock and the resulting basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders are, therefore, the same for both voting and non-voting common stock on both individual and combined basis.
Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders was calculated as follows (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Numerator: | ||
| Net loss | $(4,160) | $(6,217) |
| Net loss attributable to common stockholders – basic and diluted | $(4,160) | $(6,217) |
| Denominator: | ||
| Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic and diluted | 123,235,263 | 123,143,343 |
| Net loss per share attributable to common stockholders – basic and diluted | $(0.03) | $(0.05) |
Outstanding potentially dilutive securities, which were excluded from the diluted net income (loss) per share calculations because they would have been antidilutive were as follows as of the dates presented:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Unvested restricted stock units | 11,930,639 | 6,809,244 |
| Stock options to purchase common stock | 5,636,581 | 7,366,719 |
| Employee stock purchase plan shares | 101,280 | — |
| 17,668,500 | 14,175,963 | |
Note 16. Income Taxes
The Company’s (benefit from) provision for income taxes during the interim periods is determined using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate, which is adjusted for certain discrete tax items during the interim period. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.9 million and income tax provision of $1.6 million for thethree months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was driven by the Company's pre-tax loss position in the period. The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily attributable to activity in the Company's foreign subsidiaries and U.S. state taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the change in valuation allowance in the U.S. The Company is open to future tax examinations from 2019 to the present; however, carryforward attributes that were generated prior to 2018 may still be adjusted upon examination by federal, state or local tax authorities to the extent they will be used in a future period.
The Company’s management evaluates the realizability of the Company’s deferred tax assets based on all available evidence, both positive and negative. The realization of net deferred tax assets is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate sufficient future taxable income during the foreseeable future. As of March 31, 2025, the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance of the U.S. net deferred tax assets.
Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal proceedings
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims from time to time, the outcomes of which are subject to significant uncertainty. The Company records an accrual for legal contingencies when it has determined that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In making such determinations, the Company evaluates, among other things, the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and, when it is probable that a liability has been incurred, and the ability to make a reasonable estimate of the loss. If the occurrence of liability is probable, the Company will disclose the nature of the contingency, and if estimable, will provide the likely amount of such loss or range of loss.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company was not a party to any litigation the outcome of which, the Company believes, if determined adversely to it, would individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In the course of enhancing its sanctions compliance function, the Company initiated an internal review that identified issues related to the Company’s compliance with sanctions promulgated by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), including payments that may have originated from sanctioned jurisdictions or sanctioned persons. Although Flywire continues to evaluate whether these or other transactions constitute potential violations of sanctions (including whether certain of these payments may have been authorized by general licenses or license exemptions under the relevant sanctions regulations), Flywire has made voluntary submissions to OFAC to report the apparent violations and provide supplemental information. Flywire is currently engaging with OFAC to resolve these matters. Based upon the results of the internal investigation completed to date, the Company does not believe that the amount of any loss incurred as a result of this matter would be material to its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Indemnification
In the ordinary course of business, the Company agrees to indemnify certain partners and clients against third-party claims asserting infringement of certain intellectual property rights, data privacy breaches, damages caused to property or persons, or other liabilities relating to or arising from the Company’s payment platform or other contractual obligations. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with members of its board of directors and executive officers that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications. The Company is not aware of any pending indemnification matters or claims, individually or in the aggregate, that are expected to have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows and had not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in its condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
