Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Stockholders
Porch Group, Inc.
Opinion on the financial statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Porch Group, Inc, (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity (deficit), and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated March 15, 2024 expressed an unqualified opinion.
Basis for opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical audit matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Goodwill impairment evaluation for the Insurance and Vertical Software reporting units
As described further in notes 1 and 6 to the financial statements, goodwill is tested at least annually for impairment, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. During 2023, the Company performed an interim impairment analysis as of June 30, 2023 and recognized a $55.2 million goodwill impairment for its insurance reporting unit in addition to performing its annual impairment evaluation as of October 1, 2023.
The principal considerations for our determination that the goodwill impairment evaluation for the Insurance and Vertical Software reporting units is a critical audit matter are because the estimation of fair value of the reporting units involves subjective management assumptions, specifically the estimates of future revenues and the discount rate. Each were considered subjective as they represented estimates of future performance.
Our audit procedures related to the goodwill impairment evaluation for the Insurance and Vertical Software reporting units included the following, among others.
We tested the design and operating effectiveness of relevant controls relating to management’s preparation and review of the estimates of future revenues and the discount rate applied, and review of the methodologies applied by third-party valuation specialists engaged by the Company.
We evaluated the reasonableness of forecasted revenues used in the discounted future cash flows. This was done by comparing them to historical results, comparing prior periods’ forecasted amounts to respective actual results, and comparing the significant assumptions to current industry, market and economic trends.
With the assistance of a valuation specialist, we evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rate and the appropriateness of the methodologies used by the Company for both the Insurance and Vertical Software reporting units.
We evaluated the qualifications of the third-party valuation specialists engaged by the Company based on their credentials and experience.
