Current wording
We define a WAU as a Nextdoor user who opens our application, logs on to our website, or engages with an email with monetizable content at least once during a defined 7-day period.1 We calculate average WAUs for a particular period by calculating the count of unique users, on a rolling basis for the past seven days, for each day of that period, and dividing that sum by the number of days in that period. We assess the health of our business by measuring WAUs because we believe that weekly usage best captures the cadence at which we expect a healthy user base to engage with, and derive the most utility from our platform, and by extension their neighborhood. We also present WAUs by geography because we are more advanced in engagement and monetization in the United States than internationally.

U.S. ARPU is higher primarily due to our decision to focus our earliest monetization efforts there, the size and maturity of our audience in the United States, as well the size of the U.S. advertising market. For purposes of calculating ARPU, revenue by user geography is apportioned to each region based on a determination of the location of the account where the revenue-generating activities occur. Our ARPU for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $1.40 and $1.37, respectively, with the increase due to stronger revenue growth relative to WAU growth.

Cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $44.3 million which resulted from a net loss of $107.2 million, adjusted for non-cash charges of $58.9 million and net cash inflows of $4.0 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities. Non-cash charges primarily consisted of $60.7 million of stock-based compensation expense and $4.4 million of depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by $6.5 million of accretion on investments. The net cash inflows from changes in operating assets and liabilities were primarily due to a $3.5 million decrease in operating lease right-of-use assets due to normal amortization, a $3.4 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities, and a $2.8 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets. These amounts were partially offset by a $4.2 million decrease in operating lease liabilities due to lease payments, a $1.2 million decrease in accounts payable, and a $0.3 million increase in accounts receivable.
