Additional risks and uncertainties that are not expressly stated, that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that affect us. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects could be materially harmed. In that event, the price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.

Previous report
We have incurred significant cumulative net losses since our inception and may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability in the future.
Previous report
We have incurred significant cumulative net losses since our inception. We incurred net losses of $44.7 million in each of the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and as of December 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $216.3 million. We have funded our operations through equity financings and borrowings under revolving lines of credit and term loans. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability will depend, in significant part, on obtaining new members, retaining our existing members, maintaining relationships with our strategic partners, and ensuring that our expenses, including new pet acquisition expense, do not exceed our revenue. We expect to make significant expenditures and investments in new pet acquisition and product initiatives and these expenditures may not result in additional growth. Our growth in revenue and membership may not be sustainable or may decrease, and we may not generate sufficient revenue to consistently achieve profitability. Additionally, we budget for our expenses based, in significant part, on our estimates of future revenue and many of these expenses are fixed in the short term. As a result, we may be unable to adjust our spending in a timely manner if our revenue falls short of our estimates. Accordingly, any significant shortfall of revenue in relation to our estimates could have an immediate negative effect on our financial results.
Previous report
We may not maintain our current rate of revenue growth.
Previous report
Our revenue has increased quickly and substantially in recent years. We believe that our continued revenue growth will depend on, among other factors, our ability to:
Previous report
•improve our market penetration through cost-efficient and effective pet acquisition programs to attract new members;
Previous report
•maintain positive relationships with veterinarians and other lead sources;
Previous report
•maintain positive relationships with Territory Partners in all of our target markets;

Previous report
•continue to offer products with a superior value with competitive features and rates;
Previous report
•price our subscriptions in relation to actual operating expenses and achieve required regulatory approval for pricing changes;

Previous wording
Pursuant to a marketing agreement between us and a strategic distributor, we agreed to issue shares of our common stock to the distributor as partial consideration for sales made through the distributor’s marketing channels of white-label medical and wellness pet insurance products that we create and administer under the agreement. The number of shares we issue is determined quarterly, based on a percentage of revenue from such product sales divided by the volume weighted average price per share for the preceding quarter or, if lower, for the three months ended December 5, 2021. The shares we issue are subject to various restrictions, including a minimum holding period of two years and customary transfer restrictions for shares acquired in a private placement. During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, we issued 3,697 shares of our common stock to the distributor in respect of product sales that occurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2024. We offered and sold these shares in reliance upon the exemption from the registration set forth under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, and the regulations promulgated thereunder relating to sales by an issuer not involving any public offering, and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.
