Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

  1. Organization and Description of Business

Bandwidth Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Bandwidth” or the “Company”) was founded in July 2000 and incorporated in Delaware on March 29, 2001. The Company’s headquarters are located in Raleigh, North Carolina. The Company is a global cloud-based, software-powered communications platform-as-a-service (“CPaaS”) provider that enables enterprises to create, scale and operate voice or messaging communications services across any mobile application or connected device.

  1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these unaudited 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, filed with the SEC on February 20, 2025.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, included herein, was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures, including certain notes required by GAAP on an annual reporting basis.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year 2025 or any future period.

Reclassification

The Company reclassified certain prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the previously reported total assets, liabilities, stockholders’ deficit or net income.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bandwidth Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates in the condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, reserve for expected credit losses, reserve for sales credits, recoverability of long lived and intangible assets, fair value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, discount rates used in the valuation of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, the fair value of the liability of the Company’s Convertible Notes (as defined herein), estimated period of benefit, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, certain accrued expenses and contingencies, economic and demographic actuarial assumptions related to pension and other postretirement benefit costs and liabilities. Although the Company believes that the estimates it uses are reasonable, due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making these estimates, actual results reported in future periods could differ from those estimates.

Marketable Securities

The Company classifies marketable securities as available-for-sale at the time of purchase and reevaluates such classification as of each balance sheet date. The Company may sell these securities at any time for use in current operations even if they have not yet reached maturity. As a result, the Company classifies investments with maturities greater than 90 days as marketable securities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company evaluates its investments to assess whether the amortized cost basis is in excess of estimated fair value and determines what amount of that difference, if any, is caused by expected credit losses. Allowances for credit losses are recognized as a charge in other income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, and any remaining unrealized losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Due to the nature and investment grade of the Company’s marketable securities, there were no credit losses recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2025. There have been no impairment charges for any unrealized losses during the period.

Accounts Receivable and Current Expected Credit Losses

Accounts receivable are stated at realizable value, net of allowances, which includes an allowance for doubtful accounts and a reserve for expected credit losses. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s assessment of the collectability of its customer accounts. The Company regularly reviews the composition of the accounts receivable aging, historical credit losses, changes in payment patterns, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends, and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future. Relevant risk characteristics include customer size and historical loss patterns. Management has evaluated the expected credit losses related to trade accounts receivable and determined that an allowance of approximately $2.6 million and $2.2 million for uncollectible accounts and customer balances that are disputed was required as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Refer to Note 4, “Financial Statement Components” to these condensed consolidated financial statements, for a rollforward of the components of the allowances for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

The Company includes unbilled receivables in its accounts receivable balance. Generally, these receivables represent earned revenue from services provided to customers, which will be billed in the next billing cycle. All amounts are considered collectible and billable. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, unbilled receivables were $49.2 million and $46.8 million, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that are exposed to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities with high credit-quality financial institutions. Certain balances held by such financial institutions exceed insured limits.

With regard to customers, credit evaluation and account monitoring procedures are used to minimize the risk of loss. The Company believes that no additional credit risk beyond amounts provided for by the allowance for doubtful accounts are inherent in accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no individual customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, no individual customer represented more than 10% of the Company’s revenue.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures(“ASU 2023-09”). The amendments in this update require that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a certain quantitative threshold. The amendments also require entities on an annual basis to disclose disaggregated amounts of income taxes paid. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 effective January 1, 2025, and the required disclosures will be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that will be filed for the annual period ending December 31, 2025. ASU 2023-09 will have no impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires public entities to disclose disaggregated information about certain costs and expenses on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with the option to apply the guidance prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03 on its financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-04, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments(“ASU 2024-04”), which provides additional guidance to stakeholders about how to determine whether a settlement of convertible debt (particularly, cash convertible instruments) at terms that differ from the original conversion terms should be accounted for under the induced conversion or extinguishment guidance. ASU 2024-04 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted the amendments in Update 2020-06. The Company, which has adopted ASU 2020-06, is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-04 on its financial statements and expects to adopt the guidance upon its effective date.

  1. Fair Value Measurements

The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy requires use of observable inputs when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. The three tiers are defined as follows:

Level 1. Observable inputs based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2. Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3. Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 because of the relatively short duration of these instruments. Marketable securities consist of commercial paper not otherwise classified as cash equivalents. All marketable securities are considered to be available-for-sale and are recorded at their estimated fair values. Unrealized gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

The Company evaluated its financial assets and liabilities subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis to determine the appropriate level in which to classify them for each reporting period. The following tables summarize the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

As of March 31, 2025, the marketable securities were in an unrealized gain position. The Company has determined that (i) it does not have the intent to sell any of these investments and (ii) it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell any of these investments before recovery of the entire amortized cost basis. As of March 31, 2025, the Company anticipates that it will recover the entire amortized cost basis of its marketable securities before maturity.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, there were $1.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively, in maturities of marketable securities. There wereno proceeds from sales of marketable securities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company determines realized gains and losses on sale of marketable securities using the specific identification method and records such gains and losses in other income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Interest earned on marketable securities was less than $0.1 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The interest is recorded in other income, net, on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Accrued interest receivable is recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of March 31, 2025, the fair value of the 2026 Convertible Notes and 2028 Convertible Notes, as further described in Note 8, “Debt,” to these condensed consolidated financial statements, was approximately $7.0 million and $202.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the fair value of the 2026 Convertible Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes was approximately $31.8 million and $199.0 million, respectively. The fair value was determined based on the closing price for the Convertible Notes on the last trading day of the reporting period and is considered as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

  1. Debt

Revolving Credit Facility

In August 2023, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Company, as borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swingline lender and letters of credit issuer. The Credit Agreement provided for a $50.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), including a $15.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a swingline subfacility of up to $5.0 million. The Credit Facility has an accordion feature that allows for an increase in the total borrowing size up to $25.0 million, subject to certain conditions. The Credit Agreement was subsequently amended in 2024 to increase the Credit Facility to $150.0 million and increase the swingline sublimit to $10.0 million. The Credit Facility matures on the earlier of (a) May 1, 2029 or (b) the date that is 91 days prior to the scheduled maturity date or mandatory conversion date of any of the Company’s outstanding convertible notes due 2028. The Credit Agreement requires that the Company maintain (a) (i) for each fiscal quarter ending on or prior to June 30, 2025, a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio not to exceed 2.75 to 1.00, and (ii) for each fiscal quarter thereafter, a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio not to exceed 2.50 to 1.00; and (b) a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio not less than 2.00 to 1.00, in each case tested as of the end of any fiscal quarter. Exceptions to certain customary negative covenants require a pro forma consolidated senior secured leverage ratio of at least 0.50 to 1.00 inside the maximum then-applicable consolidated senior secured leverage ratio, and exceptions to the restriction on additional convertible indebtedness requires a pro forma consolidated total leverage ratio over the most recent four fiscal quarters not to exceed 4.50 to 1.00.

Interest on borrowings under the Credit Facility accrues at an annual rate tied to a base rate or the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), at the Company’s election. Loans based on SOFR bear interest at a rate equal to term SOFR for the applicable interest period plus 10 basis points plus an applicable margin between 2.00% and 2.50%, and loans based on the base rate bear interest at a rate equal to the base rate plus an applicable margin between 1.00% and 1.50%, in each case of the foregoing, depending upon the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio for the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial statements have been delivered under the Credit Agreement. The Company is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee equal to between 0.20% and 0.25% on the unused portion of the borrowing commitment, depending upon the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio for the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial statements have been delivered under the Credit Agreement.

The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a lien on substantially all of the Company’s tangible and intangible property and by a pledge of all of the equity interests of the Company’s direct domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the voting capital stock and 100% of the non-voting capital stock of any first-tier foreign subsidiaries, subject to limited exceptions. In addition, the Company’s direct domestic subsidiaries guarantee the obligations under the Credit Agreement and grant a lien and pledge, as applicable, on substantially all of their tangible and intangible property to secure the obligations under the Credit Agreement.

As of March 31, 2025, unamortized debt issuance costs were $0.9 million, of which $0.3 million were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $0.6 million were included in other long-term assets. As of December 31, 2024, unamortized debt issuance costs were $1.0 million, of which $0.2 million were included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $0.8 million were included in other long-term assets.

As of March 31, 2025, the Company hadno outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility and was in compliance with all financial and non-financial covenants for all periods presented. As of March 31, 2025, the available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility was $150.0 million.

Convertible Senior Notes and Capped Call Transactions

2026 Convertible Notes

In February 2020, the Company issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.25% Convertible Notes due 2026 in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act (the “2026 Convertible Notes”). The interest on the 2026 Convertible Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning on September 1, 2020. The 2026 Convertible Notes will mature on March 1, 2026, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed by the Company, or converted pursuant to their terms. The total net proceeds from the 2026 Convertible Notes, after deducting initial purchaser discounts, costs related to the 2026 Capped Calls (as defined herein), and debt issuance costs, paid by the Company, were approximately $344.7 million. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount, or the debt discount, was amortized to interest expense at an annual effective interest rate of 0.510% over the contractual terms of the 2026 Convertible Notes.

Each $1,000 principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Notes is initially convertible into 10.9857 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $91.03 per share.

During February 2025, the Company entered into separate, privately negotiated repurchase agreements with a limited number of holders of the 2026 Convertible Notes (the “2025 Repurchases”) to repurchase approximately$27.4 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Notes for an aggregate cash price of approximately$26.1 million. The 2025 Repurchases closed on February 24, 2025. Following the 2025 Repurchases and previous repurchases, approximately$7.6 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Convertible Notes remains outstanding. The difference between the consideration used for the 2025 Repurchases and the carrying value of the 2026 Convertible Notes resulted in a gain of$1.1 million recorded within net gain on extinguishment of debt on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company had previously entered into capped call transactions with certain financial institutions in connection with the 2026 Convertible Notes. All of these transactions are expected to remain in effect notwithstanding the repurchases.

2028 Convertible Notes

In March 2021, the Company issued $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.50% Convertible Notes due 2028 in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act (the “2028 Convertible Notes” and, together with the 2026 Convertible Notes, the “Convertible Notes”). The interest on the 2028 Convertible Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on October 1, 2021. The 2028 Convertible Notes will mature on April 1, 2028, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed by the Company, or converted pursuant to their terms. The total net proceeds from the 2028 Convertible Notes, after deducting initial purchaser discounts, costs related to the 2028 Capped Calls (as defined herein), and debt issuance costs, paid by the Company, were approximately $217.0 million. The excess of the principal amount of the liability component over its carrying amount, or the debt discount, was amortized to interest expense at an annual effective interest rate of 0.442% over the contractual terms of the 2028 Convertible Notes.

Each $1,000 principal amount of the 2028 Convertible Notes is initially convertible into 5.5781 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $179.27 per share.

Other Terms of the Convertible Notes

The Convertible Notes are effectively subordinated to the Company’s future senior secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness. The Convertible Notes are the senior, unsecured obligations of the Company and are equal in right of payment with the Company’s future senior unsecured indebtedness, if any, senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the Convertible Notes and the Convertible Notes will be structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including trade payables, and preferred equity, if any, of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Convertible Notes may bear special interest under specified circumstances relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its reporting obligations under the indenture governing the applicable Convertible Notes (each, a “Notes Indenture” and collectively, the “Notes Indentures”) or if the Convertible Notes are not freely tradeable as required by the applicable Notes Indenture.

The conversion rate is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, upon the occurrence of a make-whole fundamental change (which includes the calling of any Convertible Notes for redemption), as defined in the applicable Notes Indenture, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional shares for a holder that elects to convert its Convertible Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change or during the relevant redemption period.

The Company may redeem the Convertible Notes, in whole or in part, at its option at any time, and from time to time, on or after (i) March 6, 2023 for the 2026 Convertible Notes, or (ii) after April 6, 2025 for the 2028 Convertible Notes, in each case, on or before the fortieth (40 th) scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding the redemption date, if the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock has exceeded 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including the trading date immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the trading date immediately before the date on which the Company provides the related redemption notice. No sinking fund is provided for the Convertible Notes.

The Convertible Notes will be convertible at certain times and upon the occurrence of certain events in the future. Further, on or after September 1, 2025 for the 2026 Convertible Notes, and on or after October 1, 2027 for the 2028 Convertible Notes, in each case, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders of the Convertible Notes may convert all or a portion of their Convertible Notes regardless of these conditions. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of Class A common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of Class A common stock, at the Company’s election. It is the Company’s current intent to settle the principal amount of the Convertible Notes with cash.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the conditions allowing the holders of the 2026 Convertible Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes to convert were not met. The Convertible Notes may be convertible thereafter if one or more of the conversion conditions specified in each respective Notes Indenture are satisfied during future measurement periods. The Company classifies the 2026 Convertible Notes as a current liability and the 2028 Convertible Notes as a long-term liability in its condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2025, based on contractual settlement provisions.

Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the applicable Notes Indenture) prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the 2026 Convertible Notes or 2028 Convertible Notes for cash at a price equal to the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

Capped Calls

In connection with the offering of the 2026 Convertible Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain counterparties (the “2026 Capped Calls” and the “2028 Capped Calls,” respectively and, collectively, the “Capped Calls”). The initial strike price of the Convertible Notes corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2026 Convertible Notes and the 2028 Convertible Notes. The Capped Calls are generally intended to reduce or offset the potential dilution to the Class A common stock upon any conversion of the 2026 Convertible Notes and 2028 Convertible Notes with such reduction or offset, as the case may be, subject to a cap based on the cap price. The Capped Calls expire on the earlier of (i) the last day on which any convertible securities remain outstanding and (ii) March 1, 2026 for the 2026 Capped Calls and April 1, 2028 for the 2028 Capped Calls, subject to earlier exercise. The Capped Calls are subject to either adjustment or termination upon the occurrence of specified extraordinary events affecting the Company, including a merger event, a tender offer, and a nationalization, insolvency or delisting involving the Company. In addition, the Capped Calls are subject to certain specified additional disruption events that may give rise to a termination of the Capped Calls, including changes in law, insolvency filings, and hedging disruptions. The Capped Call transactions are recorded in stockholders’ equity and are not accounted for as derivatives. The net cost to purchase the Capped Calls was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table sets forth key terms and costs incurred for the Capped Calls related to the Convertible Notes as of March 31, 2025:

  1. Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases

The Company leases office space under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that expire on various dates through July 2043. As of March 31, 2025, the Company has$467.8 millionin future minimum rent payments for its current office space. See Note 5,“Leases,” to thecondensed consolidated financial statements, for additional details on the Company’s operating lease commitments.

Contractual Obligations

As of March 31, 2025, the Company has $19.0 million in non-cancellable purchase obligations, consisting of primarily network equipment maintenance and software license contracts, of which $6.4 million will be fulfilled within one year.

Legal Matters

The Company is involved as a defendant in various litigation, including, but not limited to, lawsuits alleging that the Company failed to bill, collect and remit certain taxes and surcharges associated with the provision of 911 services pursuant to applicable laws in various jurisdictions.

The Company intends to vigorously defend these lawsuits and believes that it has meritorious defenses to each. However, litigation is inherently uncertain, and any judgment or injunctive relief entered against the Company or any adverse settlement could adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

  1. Segment Reporting

The Company manages its business activities on a consolidated basis and operates inone operating segment. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (the “CODM”) in deciding how to make operating decisions, allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The CODM utilizes the Company’s budgeted and forecasted expense information, as a key input to resource allocation. The CODM makes decisions on resource allocation, assesses performance of the business and monitors budget versus actual results using net loss, as reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Significant expenses within net loss include cost of revenue, research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, which are each separately presented on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. Other segment items within net loss include net gain on extinguishment of debt, interest (expense) income, net, other income, net, and income tax benefit.

  1. Income Taxes

At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company determines the income tax provision by using an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items occurring in the quarter. The effective income tax rate reflects the effect of federal, international, and state income taxes and the permanent impacts of differences in book and tax accounting.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 1.8% and 2.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to increased earnings within the U.S., resulting in additional tax payable. This increased U.S. tax liability offsets the benefit being recognized on losses outside of the U.S., resulting in a lower effective tax rate.

The Company’s accounting for deferred taxes involves the evaluation of a number of factors concerning the realizability of its deferred tax assets. The Company primarily considered its historic performance, the nature of its deferred tax assets and the timing, likelihood and amount, if any, of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences and carryforwards become deductible. Based on an analysis of these factors, the Company determined that as of March 31, 2025, a valuation allowance against U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets was required.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2025 differed from the federal statutory tax rate of 21% in the U.S. primarily due to a valuation allowance recorded against U.S. federal and state net deferred tax assets.

  1. Related Parties

On April 20, 2015, the Company created a wholly owned subsidiary, Relay. On November 30, 2016, the Company completed a pro-rata distribution of the common stock of Relay to its stockholders of record as of the close of business. Due to the level of ownership of the Company’s CEO in Relay, Relay is considered a related party to the Company.

  1. Basic and Diluted Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The Company is in a net loss position for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, and therefore diluted shares equals basic shares.

The components of basic and diluted loss per share are as follows:

Three months ended March 31,
