2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report, which was filed with the SEC on February 1, 2024. The year-end condensed balance sheet was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements. Our unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, necessary for the fair statement of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year ending December 31, 2024.

Reclassification

We reclassified certain amounts in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows within the cash flows from operating activities section in the prior year to conform to the current year's presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 dates of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, other income, and provision for income taxes during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities which are subject to judgment and use of estimates include the fair value of financial instruments, capitalized software development costs, period of benefit associated with deferred costs, incremental borrowing rate used to measure operating lease liabilities, the recoverability of goodwill and long-lived assets, income taxes, useful lives associated with property and equipment and intangible assets, contingencies, assumptions underlying performance-based compensation (whether cash or stock-based), and assumptions underlying stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates and any such differences may have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

Net income (loss) per common share was the same for shares of our Class A and Class B common stock because they are entitled to the same liquidation and dividend rights and are therefore combined in the table below. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share (in thousands):

Potentially dilutive securities that are not included in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share because doing so would be antidilutive are as follows (in thousands):

3. Investment Securities and Fair Value Measurements

Investment Securities

Investment securities classified as available-for-sale consisted of the following as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in thousands):

As of June 30, 2024, the decline in fair value below amortized cost basis was not considered other than temporary as it is more likely than not we will hold the securities until maturity or recovery of the cost basis. No allowance for credit losses for available-for-sale investment securities was recorded as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

The fair values of available-for-sale investment securities, by remaining contractual maturity, are as follows (in thousands):

During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we had sales and maturities of investment securities, as follows (in thousands):

The tables above do not include our non-marketable debt securities of $1.3 million, which is recorded in Other long term assets in Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2024.

Fair Value Measurements

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these items.

Fair value for our Level 1 investment securities is based on market prices for identical assets. Our Level 2 securities were priced by a pricing vendor. The pricing vendor utilizes the most recent observable market information in pricing these securities or, if specific prices are not available for these securities, other observable inputs like market transactions involving comparable securities are used.

4. Capitalized Software Development Costs, net

Capitalized software development costs were as follows (in thousands):

Capitalized software development costs were $1.6 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $2.7 million and $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Amortization expense with respect to capitalized software development costs totaled $3.2 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $7.0 million and $10.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We disposed fully amortized capitalized software development costs of $2.1 million and $1.3 million, during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $4.0 million and $3.5 million, during six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

For additional information, refer to Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies and Note 7, Leases.

7. Leases

Operating leases for our corporate offices have remaining lease terms ranging fromone month tonine years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up toten years. These options to extend have not been recognized as part of our operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as it is not reasonably certain that we will exercise these options. Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Certain leases contain provisions for property-related costs that are variable in nature for which we are responsible, including common area maintenance, which are expensed as incurred.

The components of lease expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations were as follows (in thousands):

Lease-related assets and liabilities were as follows (in thousands):

In January 2023, we entered into an amendment to the lease agreement for our San Diego facility. We remeasured the lease liability and recorded a reduction to the lease liability and right-of-use asset using the discount rate at the modification date, which resulted in a gain of $2.4 million in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In June 2023, we entered into a second amendment to reduce the rentable square footage and our future rental payment obligations under the San Diego Lease pursuant to which we made a one-time payment of $2.9 million. We again remeasured the lease liability and recorded a reduction to the lease liability using the discount rate at the modification date. As a result, we recorded a gain of $1.9 million in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable leases as of June 30, 2024 were as follows (in thousands):

8. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Liability to Landlord Insurance

We have a wholly owned subsidiary, Terra Mar Insurance Company, Inc., which was established in connection with reinsuring liability to landlord insurance policies offered to our customers by our third-party service provider. We assume a 100% quota share of the liability to landlord insurance policies placed with our customers by our third-party service provider. We accrue for reported claims, and include an estimate of losses incurred but not reported by our property manager customers, in cost of revenue because we bear the risk related to all such claims. Our estimated liability for reported claims and incurred but not reported claims as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was$4.4 million and $4.2 million, respectively, and is included in Other current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are $3.6 million and $5.1 million, respectively, of deposits held with a third party related to requirements to maintain collateral for this insurance service.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are involved in various other investigative inquiries, legal proceedings and disputes arising from or related to matters incident to the ordinary course of our business activities, including actions with respect to intellectual property, employment, labor, regulatory and contractual matters. Although the ultimate outcome of such investigative inquiries, legal proceedings and other disputes cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that any such pending investigative inquiries, legal proceedings and other disputes, if determined adversely to us, would, individually or taken together, have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition or cash flows.

Indemnification

In the ordinary course of business, we may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to customers, business partners, investors, directors, officers, and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of our breach of any applicable agreements, intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties, and other liabilities relating to or arising from our services or our acts or omissions. These indemnification provisions may survive termination of the underlying agreement and the maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification provisions may not be subject to maximum loss clauses and is indeterminable. We have not incurred any costs as a result of such indemnification obligations and have not recorded any liabilities related to such obligations in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

9. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock Options

A summary of activity in connection with our stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2024, is as follows (number of shares in thousands):

Our stock-based compensation expense for stock options were not material for the periods presented.

As of June 30, 2024, the total estimated remaining stock-based compensation expense for the aforementioned stock options was $5.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.5 years.

Restricted Stock Units

A summary of activity in connection with our restricted stock units ("RSUs") for the six months ended June 30, 2024, is as follows (number of shares in thousands):

Unvested RSUs as of June 30, 2024 were composed of 0.8 million RSUs with only service conditions and 0.1 million performance share units ("PSUs") with both service conditions and performance conditions. RSUs granted with only service conditions generally vest over afour-year period, assuming continued employment through the applicable vesting date. The number of PSUs granted, as included in the above table, assumes achievement of the performance metric at 100% of the performance target. The unvested PSUs as of June 30, 2024, are subject to vesting based on the achievement of pre-established performance metrics for the year ending December 31, 2024 and will vest over athree year period, assuming continued employment through each vesting date. The actual number of shares to be issued at the end of the performance period will range from 0% to 170% of the target number of shares depending on achievement relative to the performance metric over the applicable period.

We recognized stock-based compensation expense for the RSUs and PSUs of $14.5 million and $10.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $27.5 million and $24.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, the total estimated remaining stock-based compensation expense for the aforementioned RSUs and PSUs was $113.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.3 years.

10. Income Taxes

We calculate our provision for income taxes on a quarterly basis by applying an estimated annual effective tax rate to income (loss) from operations and by calculating the tax effect of discrete items recognized during the quarter.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded income tax expense of $9.8 million and $8.3 million, representing an effective tax rate of 24.9% and 10.8%, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to change in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, state income taxes and non-deductible officers' compensation partially offset by excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation. For six months ended June 30, 2024, our effective tax rates differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation.

We assess our ability to realize our deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and we establish a valuation allowance if it is more-likely-than-not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We weigh all available positive and negative evidence, including our earnings history and results of recent operations, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies. Due to a history of cumulative losses, including permanent adjustments, and assessing all available positive and negative evidence, we have determined that it is more likely than not that our federal and state deferred tax assets would not be realized. Accordingly, we have been maintaining full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. However, based on our current and projected future earnings, we believe that there is reasonable possibility that sufficient positive evidence of sustained profitability may be achieved during the current year to reach a conclusion that part or all of our deferred tax assets may become realizable, resulting in a possible release of valuation allowance. Such valuation allowance release may result in a material increase to our deferred tax assets and a corresponding decrease in income tax expense. The exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to our projection of earnings and level of profitability that will be achieved.

There were no material changes to our unrecognized tax benefits during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, and we do not expect to have any significant changes to unrecognized tax benefits through the remainder of the year.

The following table presents our revenue categories for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):
