Current report

Cost of revenue decreased by $0.7 million from $5.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to $4.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 due primarily to a decrease in amortization expense and to a lesser extent, decreases in lead verification costs and personnel-related costs. The decrease in amortization expense was primarily due to certain assets being fully depreciated in the third quarter of 2024.

Current report

Research and development expense decreased by $0.1 million from $8.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in research and development expense was primarily driven by the decrease in office and occupancy costs due primarily to lower rent expense.

Previous report

Cost of revenue increased by $0.2 million from $10.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $10.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Previous wording

For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we derived 90% and 87%, respectively, of our revenue from auto insurance providers and our financial results depend on the performance of the auto insurance industry. Furthermore, total revenue from our largest auto insurance carrier customers was 39% and 12% of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025. In 2023 and 2022, the auto insurance industry experienced deteriorated underwriting performance due to a rise in claims, inflation, and inadequate policy premiums. This deteriorated underwriting performance caused our insurance carrier customers to reduce spending on new customer acquisition, which had a negative impact on the pricing and demand for consumer referrals in our marketplace throughout 2023. The state of the auto insurance market remains volatile, and while we have seen improvements in spending patterns, including from our two largest carrier customers, not all of our carrier customers have increased their spend in a proportional or significant manner, and a full recovery could be prolonged by further cost inflation, including the impact of potential increased tariffs; increased claim severity and frequency; or insufficient policy premium increases.

Based on our recent trend of pre-tax income, it is possible that in the near future there may be sufficient positive evidence to release a portion or all of our valuation allowance. Release of any amount of valuation allowance would result in a benefit to income taxes for the period the release is recorded, which could have a material impact on net income. Release of the valuation allowance is subject to management judgment.

Previous wording

We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months from the issuance date of the consolidated financial statements, without considering the borrowing availability under the Credit Agreement. Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those currently planned and will depend on many factors, including our revenue, the timing and extent of spending on business initiatives, purchases of capital equipment to support our growth, sales and marketing activities, expansion of our business through acquisitions or our investments in complementary offerings, technologies or businesses, market acceptance of our platform and overall economic conditions. If we do not achieve our revenue goals as planned, we believe that we can reduce our operating costs. If we need additional funds and are unable to obtain funding on a timely basis, we may need to significantly curtail our operations in an effort to provide sufficient funds to continue our operations, which could adversely affect our business prospects.
