1. The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

Company

Guidewire Software, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (the “Company”), provides a technology platform which combines core operations, digital engagement, analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (“AI”) applications. The Company’s technology platform supports core insurance operations, including underwriting, policy administration, claim management, and billing; insights into data that can improve business decision making; and digital sales, service, and claims experiences for policyholders, agents, and other key stakeholders. The Company’s customers are primarily property and casualty insurance carriers.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and reflect all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring in nature) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods presented. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted under the rules and regulations of the SEC.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related notes, together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2024.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, the Company must make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

Segment Information

The Company has determined that the chief executive officer is the chief operating decision maker. The Company’s chief executive officer reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for purposes of assessing performance and making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it operates in a single reportable segment. Since the Company operates in one operating segment, all required financial segment information can be found in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies from those that were disclosed in the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2024, except for those disclosed herein.

Restricted Cash

Unearned acquisition consideration holdback subject to service conditions is held in escrow and considered restricted cash. As of October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, unearned acquisition consideration holdback of $1.2 million was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, investments, accounts receivable, and unbilled accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash, cash equivalents, and investments with high-quality financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk for cash held in financial institutions in the event of a default to the extent that such amounts recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are in excess of amounts that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

No customer individually accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023. For the periods ended October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, we had one customer, which were different customers in each period, which accounted for 10% or more of the Company's accounts receivable.

Recently Adopted Pronouncements

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2024-04, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20): Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments, which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. The new standard was early adopted by the Company beginning August 1, 2024 and applied retrospectively for all periods presented, including the retirement of its convertible senior notes due March 2025. See Note 5 “Convertible Senior Notes.” The new standard did not have an impact on prior periods presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU No. 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280 on an interim and annual basis. The new standard will be effective and the Company will adopt it for the annual period beginning August 1, 2024, and for the interim periods beginning after August 1, 2025. The adoption of this ASU will impact the Company’s disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The new standard will be effective and the Company will adopt it beginning August 1, 2025. Upon adoption, the guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting this standard on the consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires public business entities to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to the financial statements on an interim and annual basis. The new standard will be effective and the Company will adopt it for the annual period beginning August 1, 2027, and for the interim periods beginning after August 1, 2028. Upon adoption, the guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The adoption of this ASU will impact the Company’s disclosures.

Other recent accounting pronouncements that will be applicable to the Company are not expected to have a material impact on its present or future financial statements.

Professional services under time and material contracts are not included in the remaining performance obligations calculation as these arrangements can be cancelled at any time.

3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Available-for-sale investments within cash equivalents and investments consist of the following (in thousands):

The Company does not consider any portion of the unrealized losses at October 31, 2024 to be credit losses. The Company has recorded the securities at fair value in its condensed consolidated balance sheets, with unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The amount of unrealized gains and losses reclassified into earnings are based on the specific identification of the securities sold. The realized gains and losses from sales of securities are presented in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

The following table summarizes the contractual maturities of the Company’s available-for-sale investments measured at fair value (in thousands):

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or an exit price paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The Company applies the three-level valuation hierarchy when measuring the fair value of certain assets and liabilities:

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data; and

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions.

Available-for-sale investments

The following tables summarize the Company’s available-for-sale investments measured at fair value, by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Convertible Senior Notes

In March 2018, the Company issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Convertible Senior Notes”) and, in October 2024, the Company issued $690.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Convertible Senior Notes,” together with the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes, the “Convertible Senior Notes”). The fair value of the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes was $452.4 million and $528.0 million at October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, respectively, and the fair value of the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes was $703.3 million at October 31, 2024. The Company estimates the fair value of the Convertible Senior Notes using commonly accepted valuation methodologies and market-based risk measurements that are directly observable, such as unadjusted quoted prices in markets that are not active (Level 2).

In October 2024, the Company retired $120.9 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes in cash for $200.5 million, which included related accrued interest of $0.1 million. See Note 5 “Convertible Senior Notes.”

Strategic Investments

The Company’s other assets include strategic investments in privately held companies in which the Company does not have a controlling interest or the ability to exert significant influence. The strategic investments consist of non-marketable equity securities that do not have readily determinable market values (Level 3), which are recorded using the measurement alternative at cost less impairment and adjusts cost for subsequent observable changes in fair value, and an investment in a limited partnership, which is recorded using the net asset value practical expedient (Level 3) in accordance with ASC 820. Changes in fair value are recorded in other income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The following table summarizes the unrealized and realized gains (losses) on strategic investments (in thousands):

The following table summarizes the carrying amount of the Company’s strategic investments (in thousands):

4. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. For calculating diluted earnings per share, the Company uses the treasury stock method for options to purchase common stock, time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) and the if-converted method for Convertible Senior Notes. RSUs and PSUs are collectively referred to as “Stock Awards.”

The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

The following weighted average shares of potential common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share for the periods presented because including them would have been anti-dilutive:

During the three months ended October 31, 2024, the average market price of the Company’s common stock exceeded the initial conversion price of the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes, and the conversion premium was included in weighted average shares outstanding for calculating diluted net income per share. During the three months ended October 31, 2023, the average market price of the Company’s common stock did not exceed the initial conversion price of the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes.

During the three months ended October 31, 2024, the average market price of the Company’s common stock did not exceed the initial conversion price of the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes.

5. Convertible Senior Notes

The net carrying value of the Convertible Senior Notes and unamortized debt issuance costs was as follows (in thousands):

The following table sets forth the interest expense recognized related to the Convertible Senior Notes (in thousands):

As of October 31, 2024, the if-converted value of the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes exceeded their outstanding principal amount by $14.9 million. As of October 31, 2024, the if-converted value of the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes didnot exceed their outstanding principal amount.

2025 Convertible Senior Notes

In March 2018, the Company offered and sold $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 2025 Convertible Senior Notes. The 2025 Convertible Senior Notes were issued in accordance with the Indenture, dated as of March 13, 2018, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (formerly known as U.S. Bank National Association), as trustee (the “Trustee”) (the “Base Indenture”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 13, 2018, between the Company and the Trustee (together with the Base Indenture, the “2025 Indenture”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes were $387.2 million, after deducting issuance costs.

The 2025 Convertible Senior Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company with interest payable semi-annually in arrears, at a rate of 1.25% per year, on March 15th and September 15th of each year. The 2025 Convertible Senior Notes will mature on March 15, 2025 unless repurchased, redeemed, or converted prior to such date. The 2025 Convertible Senior Notes are convertible at the option of holders at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The 2025 Convertible Senior Notes will have an initial conversion rate of 8.7912 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $113.75 per share of the Company’s common stock).

The Company may redeem the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes, at its option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including at least one of the 3 trading days immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption. No sinking fund is provided for the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes. Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the 2025 Indenture) prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

The 2025 Convertible Senior Notes rank senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes, and equal in right of payment to any of its indebtedness that is not so subordinated. The 2025 Convertible Senior Notes are effectively junior in right of payment to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) and any preferred equity of its current or future subsidiaries.

As of October 2024, under the terms of the 2025 Indenture, the Company will settle future conversions of its outstanding $279.1 million principal amount solely in cash up to the principal amount converted, with any excess value to be settled in shares of the Company’s common stock.

Retirement of 2025 Convertible Senior Notes

In October 2024, the Company retired $120.9 million aggregate principal amount and $0.2 million of related debt issuance costs of the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes for $200.5 million in cash, which included related accrued interest of $0.1 million. The retirement was accounted for as an induced conversion resulting in an inducement expense of $0.3 million recorded in other income (expense), net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and a decrease to additional paid-in capital of $79.4 million on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

2029 Convertible Senior Notes

In October 2024, the Company offered and sold $690.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 2029 Convertible Senior Notes. The 2029 Convertible Senior Notes were issued in accordance with the Indenture, dated as of October 18, 2024, between the Company and the Trustee (the “2029 Indenture”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes were $671.7 million after deducting issuance costs.

The 2029 Convertible Senior Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company with interest payable semi-annually in arrears, at a rate of 1.25% per year, on May 1st and November 1st of each year. The 2029 Convertible Senior Notes will mature on November 1, 2029 unless repurchased, redeemed, or converted prior to such date. Before August 1, 2029, holders of the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes will have the right to convert their 2029 Convertible Senior Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. On or after August 1, 2029, the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes are convertible at any time at the election of holders until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The 2029 Convertible Senior Notes will have an initial conversion rate of 4.0875 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $244.65 per share of the Company’s common stock). The conversion rate is subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events but will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. The consideration due upon conversion will consist of cash, up to at least the proportional amount of the principal amount being converted, and any excess of the proportional conversion value for that trading day that will not be settled in cash will be settled in shares of the Company’s common stock.

The Company may redeem the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes, at its option, on or after November 5, 2027 and on or before the 20th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest if (i) the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes are “Freely Tradable” (as defined in the 2029 Indenture) as of the date the Company sends the related redemption notice, and all accrued and unpaid additional interest, if any, has been paid in full, as of the most recent interest payment date occurring on or before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice; and (ii) the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price on (1) each of at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption; and (2) the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption. No sinking fund is required to be provided for the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes. Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the 2029 Indenture) prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

The 2029 Convertible Senior Notes rank senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes, and equal in right of payment to any of its indebtedness that is not so subordinated. The 2029 Convertible Senior Notes are effectively junior in right of payment to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) and any preferred equity of its current or future subsidiaries.

Capped Calls

In connection with each offering of the Convertible Senior Notes, the Company purchased capped calls with certain financial institutions pursuant to capped call confirmations (collectively the “Capped Calls”). The initial strike price of the Convertible Senior Notes corresponds to the initial conversion price of each of the Convertible Senior Notes. By entering into the Capped Calls, the Company expects to reduce the potential dilution to its common stock (or, in the event the conversion is settled in cash, to reduce its cash payment obligation) in the event that at the time of conversion its stock price exceeds the conversion price under the Convertible Senior Notes. 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. Additionally, 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 Calls were recorded in the period purchased as a reduction of the Company’s additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are not accounted for as derivatives.

The following table below sets forth key terms and costs incurred for the Capped Calls related to each of the Convertible Senior Notes (in millions, except per share amounts):

6. Commitments and Contingencies

Except as discussed below, there has been no material change in the Company’s contractual obligations and commitments other than in the ordinary course of business since the Company’s fiscal year ended July 31, 2024.

During the three months ended October 31, 2024, the Company retired $120.9 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Convertible Senior Notes in cash for $200.5 million, which included related accrued interest of $0.1 million, and issued $690.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Convertible Senior Notes. See Note 5 “Convertible Senior Notes.”

See the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2024 for additional information regarding the Company’s contractual obligations.

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and receives claims arising from the normal course of business activities. The Company has not recorded any accrual for claims as of October 31, 2024 or July 31, 2024. The Company has not accrued for estimated losses in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as the Company has determined that no provision for liability nor disclosure is required related to any claim against the Company because: (a) there is not a reasonable possibility that a loss exceeding amounts already recognized (if any) may be incurred with respect to such claim; (b) a reasonably possible loss or range of loss cannot be estimated; or (c) such estimate is immaterial. The Company expenses legal fees in the period in which they are incurred.

Indemnification

The Company sells software licenses and services to its customers under Software License Agreements (“SLA”) and Software Subscription Agreements (“SSA”). SLAs and SSAs contain the terms of the contractual arrangement with the customer and generally include certain provisions for defending the customer against any claims that the Company’s software infringes upon a patent, copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right of a third party. SLAs and SSAs also generally indemnify the customer against judgments, settlements, fines, penalties, costs, and expenses resulting from a claim (“Losses”) against the customer in the event the Company’s software is found to infringe upon such third-party rights.

The Company hasnot had to reimburse any of its customers for Losses related to indemnification provisions andno material claims against the Company were outstanding as of October 31, 2024 or July 31, 2024. For several reasons, including the lack of prior indemnification claims and the lack of a monetary liability limit for certain infringement cases under various SLAs and SSAs, the Company cannot estimate the amount of potential future payments, if any, related to indemnification provisions.

The Company has also agreed to indemnify its directors and executive officers for costs associated with any fees, expenses, judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by any of these persons in any action or proceeding to which any of these persons is, or is threatened to be, made a party by reason of the person’s service as a director or officer, including any action by the Company, arising out of that person’s services as the Company’s director or officer or that person’s services provided to any other company or enterprise at the Company’s request. The Company maintains director and officer insurance coverage that may enable the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid.

7. Stock-Based Compensation Expense and Shareholders’ Equity

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and Stock Awards is included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations as follows (in thousands):

Total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to the Company’s stock options and Stock Awards as of October 31, 2024 is as follows:

Stock Awards

A summary of the Company’s Stock Awards activity under the Company’s equity incentive plans is as follows:

(1)Aggregate intrinsic value at each period end represents the total market value of Stock Awards at the Company’s closing stock price of $186.26 and $150.07 on October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, respectively. Aggregate intrinsic value for released Stock Awards represents the total market value of released Stock Awards at date of release.

In September 2023 and 2024, certain executive officers were granted Stock Awards that vest in September 2026 and 2027 respectively, subject to continued service until such time, with the opportunity to increase the number of vested awards based on Company financial performance and, for a select number of awards, the market performance of the Company’s common stock. The fair value of the awards will be recognized over the three-year performance period and may increase or decrease depending on the estimated attainment of Company financial performance criteria. The Company determined the fair value of the portion of the awards subject to the market performance of the Company’s common stock using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which included the following assumptions:

For the portion of the award subject to the market performance of the Company’s common stock, stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period regardless of whether or not the market condition is ultimately satisfied, subject to continued service over the period.

Prior to fiscal year 2024, certain executives and employees of the Company received PSUs, which vest over three years, with 50% vesting annually over thethree-year performance period and the remaining 50% vesting at the end of the third year.

The Company recognized stock-based compensation related to PSUs of $6.3 million and $4.1 million during the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Stock Options

A summary of stock option activity under the Company’s equity incentive plans is as follows:

(1)Aggregate intrinsic value at each period end represents the difference between the Company’s closing stock price of $186.26 and $150.07 on October 31, 2024 and July 31, 2024, respectively, and the exercise price of outstanding options. Aggregate intrinsic value for exercised options represents the difference between the Company’s stock price at date of exercise and the exercise price.

Share Repurchase Program

In September 2022, the Company’s board of directors authorized and approved a share repurchase program of up to $400.0 million of the Company’s outsta nding common stock. Share repurchases under the program may be made from time to time, in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions and otherwise, at the discretion of management of the Company and in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, and other applicable legal requirements. Such repurchases may also be made in compliance with Rule 10b5-1 trading plans entered into by the Company.

During the three months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not repurchase any shares of common stock. As of October 31, 2024, $138.2 million remained available for future share repurchases.

8. Subsequent Events

On December 2, 2024, Guidewire and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and certain other financial institutions from time to time thereto (with the Administrative Agent, the “Lenders”). The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million (the “2025 Credit Facility”). At the Company’s discretion, it allows flexibility for an uncommitted upsize of the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Credit Facility or the establishment of incremental term loan facilities, in each case, as further set forth in the Credit Agreement. As of December 5, 2024, there are no commitments by any Lenders for any such upsize or incremental term loan facility.

The loans under the 2025 Credit Facility bear interest (i) for U.S. Dollar-denominated loans, at the Company’s option, at either (a) the bank’s base rate, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.25% per annum, or (b) a term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.25% per annum and (ii) for alternative currency-denominated loans, at the applicable alternative currency rate (whether a daily rate or a term rate), plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.25% per annum, in each case, such applicable margins to be determined based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio.

In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal under the 2025 Credit Facility, the Company is required to pay (i) a commitment fee ranging from 0.175% to 0.30% per annum, to be determined based on the Company’s total net leverage ratio, on the actual daily unused amount of each Lender’s commitment under the 2025 Credit Facility, (ii) a letter of credit fronting fee of 0.125% per annum of the daily amount available to be drawn under outstanding letters of credit, and (iii) certain other customary fees and expenses of the Lenders and agents.

The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to merge and consolidate with other companies, dispose of assets, incur indebtedness, or grant liens or other security interests on assets, in each case, subject to certain customary exceptions. The financial covenants require as of the end of each fiscal quarter that (a) the Company has a minimum consolidated net cash interest coverage ratio of 3.00:1.00 and (b) the Company does not exceed a maximum total net leverage ratio of 3.75:1.00. The maximum total net leverage ratio is subject to a step-up by 0.50:1.00 at the election of the Company for four fiscal quarters following certain material acquisitions, subject to certain customary exceptions.

The 2025 Credit Facility has a scheduled maturity of December 2, 2029; provided that the Credit Agreement provides for a maturity date of 91 days prior to the earlier maturity date of any individual or related series of other indebtedness with an aggregate outstanding principal amount that exceeds the greater of (x) $107.5 million and (y)50% of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) as of the most recent four fiscal quarter period preceding such 91st day for which financial statements were required to be delivered pursuant to the Credit Agreement, unless the Company maintains either (a) a total net leverage ratio lower than 2.00:1.00 or (b) liquidity greater than 125% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such indebtedness.

The Credit Agreement includes customary events of default that include, among other things, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, violation of certain covenants, cross default to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments, change of control and certain material ERISA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) events, in each case, subject to certain customary exceptions and grace periods. During the continuance of an event of default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may take a number of actions, including, among others, declaring the entire aggregate amount then outstanding under the 2025 Credit Facility to be due and payable.

The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are required to be guaranteed by the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and each guarantor. Revolving loans may be prepaid, and revolving loan commitments may be permanently reduced by the Company in whole or in part, without penalty or premium.
