Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Unity Software Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
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, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated February 21, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
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 audits 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 audits 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 audits 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

| Revenue Recognition | |
| Description of the Matter | As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, revenue is recognized when the Company's contractual performance obligations are satisfied, in an amount that reflects the consideration expected. Significant judgment is required to determine the level of integration and interdependencies among the individual promises included in the Company’s Create Solutions subscriptions. This determination influences whether the software is a distinct and separate performance obligation that should be recognized at a point in time or whether the software should be combined with other promises and recognized over time. Management has concluded that the Company’s Create Solutions subscription is a single performance obligation because the software and software updates are highly interdependent and interrelated. As such, the single performance obligation is recognized over the contract term as the subscription is delivered.Auditing the Company's determination whether the promises included in the Company’s Create Solutions subscriptions should be accounted for as a single performance obligation required a significant level of auditor judgment. |
|---|---|
| How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit | We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls over the Company's determination that the Company’s Create Solutions subscriptions represent a single performance obligation. Our audit procedures also included, among others, assessing the nature and frequency of the software updates and the level of integration and interdependency between the software and software updates by performing inquiries with the Company’s product specialists and further reviewing communication to the Company’s customers on its Create Solutions subscriptions. We have also evaluated the Company’s revenue disclosures in relation to these matters. |
