NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Pegasystems Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “the Company”) has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information required by the generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America (“U.S.”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In the opinion of management, the Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as its audited financial statements, and these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented.

All intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation. The operating results for the interim periods presented do not necessarily indicate the expected results for fiscal year 2025.

Stock Split

On February 12, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a two -for-one forward stock split (the “Stock Split”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $ 0.01 (“Common Stock”), to be effected as a stock dividend and a proportionate increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 200,000,000 to 400,000,000 (the “Authorized Share Increase”). The Authorized Share Increase was subject to shareholder approval of an amendment to the Company’s Restated Articles of Organization. The requisite shareholder approval was obtained on June 17, 2025. On June 20, 2025, each shareholder of record at the close of business on June 10, 2025 (the “Record Date”) received one additional share of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock held on the Record Date. All share, per share, and equity award information in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and in the accompanying notes for all periods presented have been recast to reflect the effect of the Stock Split. The shares of Common Stock retained a par value of $ 0.01 per share. Accordingly, an amount equal to the par value of the increased shares resulting from the Stock Split was reclassified from additional paid-in capital to common stock.

NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 includes expanded income tax rate reconciliation disclosures, a disaggregation of income taxes paid, and other expanded disclosures. ASU 2023-09 will be effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2025. The Company expects the adoption to result in disclosure changes only.

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses

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”). Among other items, the requirements include expanded disclosures around employee compensation and selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 will be effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2027. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements but expects the adoption to result in disclosure changes only .

NOTE 8. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

The Company derives substantially all of its revenue from the sale and support of one group of similar products and services – software that provides case management, business process management, and real-time decisioning solutions to improve customer engagement and operational excellence in the enterprise applications market. To assess performance, the Company’s CODM, the Chief Executive Officer, reviews financial information on a consolidated basis. Therefore, the Company determined it has one operating segment and one reportable segment. The accounting policies of the Company’s operating segment are the same as those described in "Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies" included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The CODM uses consolidated net income (loss) to set financial performance targets, assess performance, and make expense allocation decisions.

NOTE 12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The Company records its cash equivalents, marketable securities, capped call transactions, and venture investments at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

As a basis for classifying the fair value measurements, a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which classifies the fair value measurements based on the inputs used in measuring fair value, was established as follows:

• Level 1 - observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• Level 2 - significant other inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

• Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs with little or no market data, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions.

This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data when available and minimize unobservable inputs when determining fair value.

The fair value of the Capped Call Transactions at the end of each reporting period is determined using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The valuation model uses various market-based inputs, including stock price, remaining contractual term, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividend yield. The Company applied judgment when determining expected volatility. The Company considered the underlying equity security’s historical and implied volatility levels. The Capped Call Transactions expired upon maturity of the Notes during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company’s venture investments are recorded at fair value based on multiple valuation methods, including observable public companies and transaction prices and unobservable inputs, including the volatility, rights, and obligations of the securities the Company holds.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, one of the Company’s investees was acquired by a privately held company. As a result, the Company received $ 33.2 million in consideration for its equity interest in the investee, composed of $ 22.1 million cash and $ 11.1 million of an ownership interest in the privately held company, and recognized a $ 18.7 million gain in excess of cost in other income, net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The carrying value of certain financial instruments, including receivables and accounts payable, approximates fair value due to their short maturities.

Fair value of the Convertible Senior Notes

The fair value of the Notes outstanding (including the embedded conversion feature) was $ 463.9 million as of December 31, 2024. The Notes were repaid in full at maturity during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The fair value was determined based on the Notes’ quoted price in an over-the-counter market on the last trading day of the reporting period and classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Stock repurchase program

On April 22, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors extended the expiration date of the share repurchase program from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026 and increased the authorized repurchase amount by $ 500 million, bringing the total repurchase authorization to $ 810 million, of which $ 489.3 million remains available as of June 30, 2025.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 6.1 million of its common stock for $ 251.2 million at an average price per share of $ 41.39 . All purchases under this program have been made on the open market.

Stock Split

On June 20, 2025, the Company effected the Stock Split of the Company’s Common Stock described above in “Note 1. Basis of Presentation”.

Effective income tax rate		24		%	*

* Not meaningful

The Company’s effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025, is mainly attributable to the jurisdictional mix of earnings and is also impacted by excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets in the U.S. and U.K.

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. Future realization of deferred tax assets ultimately depends on sufficient taxable income within the available carryback or carryforward periods. The Company’s deferred tax valuation allowance requires significant judgment and has uncertainties, including assumptions about future taxable income based on historical and projected information. In assessing the Company’s ability to realize its net deferred tax assets, the Company considered various factors including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial results to determine whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its net deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company intends to maintain a valuation allowance on its U.S. and U.K. net deferred tax assets until positive sufficient evidence exists to support their realization. Given the Company’s recent earnings, the Company believes that there is a reasonable possibility that in a future period sufficient positive evidence may become available to allow the Company to reach a conclusion that a substantial portion of the valuation allowance will no longer be needed. However, the exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to significant judgement. Release of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets and a decrease to income tax expense for the period the release is recorded.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted into law. The OBBBA provides for significant U.S. tax law changes. ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes , provides that changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period of enactment. As a result, the Company is assessing the impact of this new legislation and will record any impacts in the period of enactment.

Appian Corp. v. Pegasystems Inc. & Youyong Zou

The Company is a defendant in litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia (the “Court”) titled Appian Corp. v. Pegasystems Inc. & Youyong Zou, No. 2020-07216 (Fairfax Cty. Ct.). On May 9, 2022, the jury rendered its verdict finding that the Company had misappropriated one or more of Appian’s trade secrets, that the Company had violated the Virginia Computer Crimes Act, and that the trade secret misappropriation was willful and malicious. The jury awarded damages of $ 2,036,860,045 for trade secret misappropriation and $ 1.00 for violating the Virginia Computer Crimes Act. On September 15, 2022, the circuit court of Fairfax County entered judgment of $ 2,060,479,287 , consisting of the damages previously awarded by the jury plus attorneys’ fees and costs, and stating that the judgment is subject to post-judgment interest at a rate of 6.0 % per annum, from the date of the jury verdict (May 9, 2022) as to the amount of the jury verdict and from September 15, 2022 as to the amount of the award of attorneys’ fees and costs. On September 15, 2022, the Company filed a notice of appeal from the judgment. On September 29, 2022, the circuit court of Fairfax County approved a $ 25,000,000 letter of credit obtained by the Company to secure the judgment and entered an order suspending the judgment during the pendency of the Company’s appeal. A panel of the Court of Appeals of Virginia heard oral arguments on November 15, 2023, and issued a written opinion on July 30, 2024. The Court of Appeals reversed the judgment on Appian’s Virginia Uniform Trade Secrets Act claim and ordered a new trial on that claim. Appian filed a petition for appeal with the Supreme Court of Virginia on August 29, 2024, and the Company filed a response to the petition on October 21, 2024. The Supreme Court of Virginia heard oral argument on February 11, 2025, and, on March 7, 2025, the Supreme Court of Virginia granted Appian’s petition for appeal and Pega’s assignments of cross-error. The parties have completed briefing before the Supreme Court of Virginia. There is no date for oral argument. Although it is not possible to predict timing, the entirety of the appeals process could potentially take years to complete. The Company continues to believe that it did not misappropriate any alleged trade secrets and that its sales of the Company’s products at issue were not caused by, or the result of, any alleged misappropriation of trade secrets. The Company is unable to reasonably estimate possible damages because of, among other things, uncertainty as to the outcome of appellate proceedings and/or any potential new trial resulting from the appellate proceedings.

Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell

On December 4, 2024, the shareholders representing approximately 3 % of the settlement class that opted out of the court approved settlement in the class action matter captioned City of Fort Lauderdale Police and Firefighters’ Retirement System, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case 1:22-cv-00578-LMB-IDD) (the “Class Action”) filed two lawsuits against the Company, the Company’s chief executive officer, and the Company’s chief operating and financial officer in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The first is captioned Eminence Fund Long Master, Ltd., Eminence Fund Master, Ltd., Eminence Fund II Master, LP, Eminence Partners Long II, LP, Eminence Fund Leveraged Master, Ltd., Eminence Partners, L.P., and Eminence Partners II, L.P. v. Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case 1:24-cv-12999-WGY); the second is captioned PS Lit Recovery, LLC v. Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case 1:24-cv-11220-WGY). The complaints, which are substantially similar, generally allege, among other things, that the defendants violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and that the individual defendants violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, in each case by allegedly making materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as allegedly failing to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, which caused the Company’s securities to trade at artificially inflated prices. The complaints also assert claims for common law fraud and negligent misrepresentation, and seek unspecified damages. The defendants moved to dismiss the complaints on March 13, 2025. The plaintiffs filed a brief in opposition to the motion to dismiss on April 10, 2025. The defendants filed a reply brief in support of the motion to dismiss on April 10, 2025. On May 21, 2025, the Court held a hearing on the motion to dismiss. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Court (i) granted the motion to dismiss as to the plaintiffs’ scheme liability claims; (ii) granted the motion to dismiss as to all claims against Ken Stillwell, except for the plaintiffs’ control person liability claims; and (iii) took the motion to dismiss under advisement as to all other claims. The parties are awaiting a written order ruling on the motion to dismiss as to the remaining claims.

On February 26, 2025, the same shareholders filed two lawsuits against the Company, the Company’s chief executive officer, and the Company’s chief operating and financial officer in Massachusetts Superior Court. The first is captioned Eminence Fund Long Master, Ltd., Eminence Fund Master, Ltd., Eminence Fund II Master, LP, Eminence Partners Long II, LP, Eminence Fund Leveraged Master, Ltd., Eminence Partners, L.P., and Eminence Partners II, L.P. v. Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case No. 2584CV00541-BLS1); the second is captioned PS Lit Recovery, LLC v. Pegasystems, Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case No. 2584CV00539-BLS1). The complaints, which are substantially similar, allege the same state law claims raised in the two federal lawsuits brought by the same plaintiffs in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. On April 14, 2025, the court granted the parties’ joint stipulations to stay both cases pending the resolution of the parallel federal actions and ordered the plaintiffs to file periodic status reports regarding the federal cases showing cause why the state cases should remain open.

The Company is unable to reasonably estimate possible damages or a range of possible damages in these matters given the stage of the lawsuits and there being no specified quantum of damages sought in the complaints.

In re Pegasystems Inc., Derivative Litigation

On November 21, 2022, a lawsuit was filed against the members of the Company’s board of directors, the Company’s chief operating and financial officer and the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, captioned Mary Larkin, derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant Pegasystems Inc. v. Peter Gyenes, Richard Jones, Christopher Lafond, Dianne Ledingham, Sharon Rowlands, Alan Trefler, Larry Weber, and Kenneth Stillwell, defendants, and Pegasystems Inc., nominal defendant (Case 1:22-cv-11985). The complaint generally alleges the defendants sold shares of the Company while in possession of material nonpublic information relating to (i) the litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, described above, and (ii) alleged misconduct by Company employees alleged in that litigation. On April 28, 2023, a lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by Dag Sagfors, derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant Pegasystems Inc., asserting breach of fiduciary duty and related claims relating to the Virginia Appian litigation against the same defendants as the Larkin lawsuit. On May 17, 2023, the Larkin and Sagfors cases were consolidated and a joint motion to stay the consolidated case is pending before the Court (“Consolidated Action”). The Company also has received confidential demand letters raising substantially the same allegations set forth in the foregoing derivative complaints. On April 12, 2023, the Company’s board of directors (other than Mr. Trefler, who recused himself), formed a committee consisting solely of independent directors, to review, analyze, and investigate the matters raised in the demands and to determine in good faith what actions (if any) are reasonably believed to be appropriate under similar circumstances and reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company in response to the demand letters. On December 4, 2024, the defendants moved to dismiss the complaint in the Consolidated Action. On December 17, 2024, the plaintiffs moved to voluntarily dismiss the Consolidated Action, and the Court granted the motion on December 18, 2024.

On February 7, 2025, the plaintiffs in the Consolidated Action filed a new complaint against the members of the Company’s board of directors, certain employees of the Company, and the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, captioned Mary Larkin and Dag Sagfors, derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant Pegasystems Inc. v. Alan Trefler, Peter Gyenes, Richard Jones, Christopher Lafond, Dianne Ledingham, Sharon Rowlands, Leon Trefler, Larry Weber, Kenneth Stillwell, Don Schuerman, Kerim Akgonul, and Benjamin Baril, defendants, and Pegasystems Inc., nominal defendant (Case 1:25-cv-10303). The complaint asserts against Defendants claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and violations of the Exchange Act relating to (i) the litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, described above; (ii) alleged misconduct by Company employees alleged in that litigation; and the Class Action, described above. The defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint on April 28, 2025. The plaintiffs filed a brief in opposition to the motions to dismiss on June 9, 2025, and the defendants filed a reply brief in support of their motions to dismiss on June 30, 2025. The Court has scheduled a hearing on the motions to dismiss for July 21, 2025.

On June 6, 2025, the plaintiffs in the consolidated derivative matter currently pending in Massachusetts Superior Court, Case No. 2484CV01734 (discussed below), moved to intervene in this matter and to stay it pending the resolution of the state derivative matter. After briefing by the parties, the Court scheduled a hearing on the motions for July 21, 2025.

The complaint generally alleges the defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with alleged misconduct by Company employees alleged in the litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, described above, and alleges damages from the approximately $ 2 billion verdict in the litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, described above, the settlement of the Class Action, and litigation costs from various proceedings. On October 18, 2024, the defendants served a motion to dismiss the complaint, which the defendants then withdrew on November 26, 2024 pending resolution of whether this complaint and the other derivative actions would be consolidated in Superior Court in Suffolk County, Massachusetts.

• our ability to protect our intellectual property rights, costs associated with defending such rights, intellectual property rights claims, and other related claims by third parties against us, including related costs, damages, and other relief that may be granted against us;

• our ongoing litigation with Appian Corp. and associated legal proceedings;

These risks and others that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements are described further in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and other filings we make with the SEC.

Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, and there are no assurances that the results included in such statements will be achieved. Although subsequent events may cause our view to change, except as required by applicable law, we do not undertake and expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as the result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report represent our views as of July 22, 2025.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

Our non-GAAP financial measures should only be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these measures help investors understand our core operating results and prospects, which is consistent with how management measures and forecasts our performance without the effect of often one-time charges and other items outside our normal operations. Management uses these measures to assess the performance of the company's operations and establish operational goals and incentives. They are not a substitute for financial measures prepared under U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP measures is located with each non-GAAP measure.

Performance metrics

We use performance metrics to analyze and assess our overall performance, make operating decisions, and forecast and plan for future periods, including:

Annual contract value (“ACV”)

ACV represents the annualized value of our active contracts as of the measurement date. The contract's total value is divided by its duration in years to calculate ACV. ACV is a performance measure that we believe provides useful information to our management and investors.

(1) Our non-GAAP free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less investment in property and equipment. Investment in property and equipment fluctuates in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the timing and size of investments in our facilities and equipment. We provide information on free cash flow to enable investors to assess our ability to generate cash without incurring additional external financings. This information is not a substitute for financial measures prepared under U.S. GAAP.

(2) The supplemental information discloses items that affect our cash flows and are considered by management not to be representative of our core business operations and ongoing operational performance.

• Litigation settlement, net of recoveries : Cost to settle litigation, net of insurance recoveries, arising from proceedings outside the ordinary course of business. See "Note 20. Commitments And Contingencies" in Item 8 of our Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and prior filings for further information.

• Legal fees: Legal and related fees arising from proceedings outside the ordinary course of business.

• Restructuring: Restructuring fluctuates in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the timing and size of our restructuring activities.

• Interest paid on convertible senior notes : In February 2020, we issued convertible senior notes (the “Notes”), due March 1, 2025, in a private placement. The Notes accrued interest at an annual rate of 0.75%, paid semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1. The outstanding Notes were repaid in their entirety at maturity.

• Income taxes, net of refunds : Direct income taxes paid net of refunds received.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared following accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. and the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Preparing these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions, and expectations of what could occur in the future based on the available information.

For more information about our critical accounting policies, we encourage you to read the discussion in the following locations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024:

• “Critical Accounting Estimates and Significant Judgments” in Item 7; and

• “Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies” in Item 8.

No significant changes have been made to our critical accounting policies as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

• The increases in Pega Cloud revenue in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to expanded adoption of Pega Cloud by our clients.

• The decreases in maintenance revenue in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to our clients’ shift to Pega Cloud-based offerings, which do not result in maintenance revenue.

• The decrease in subscription license revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to several large multi-year contracts recognized in revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in subscription revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to several large multi-year contracts recognized in revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2025.

• The increases in consulting revenue in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to increases in consultant billable hours.

• The increases in Pega Cloud gross profit percent in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to increased hosting cost efficiencies as Pega Cloud continues to grow and scale and a reallocation of certain headcount from Pega Cloud to Maintenance to align with the change in the nature of their responsibilities.

• The decrease in consulting gross profit percent in the three months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to an increase in compensation and benefits of $4.6 million, attributable to incentive compensation, and contracted services of $2.3 million. The increase in consulting gross profit percent in six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to an increase in consultant utilization rates.

• The increases in selling and marketing in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits of $4.9 million and $11.6 million, respectively, attributable to increases in headcount and incentive compensation.

• The increases in research and development in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits of $3.5 million and $3.9 million, respectively, attributable to incentive compensation.

• The increases in general and administrative in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits of $1.5 million and $5.8 million, respectively, attributable to a reallocation of certain headcount from research and development to general and administrative to align with the change in the nature of their responsibilities, and increases of $4.0 million and $8.6 million, respectively, in legal fees and related expenses arising from legal proceedings outside the ordinary course of business. We expect to continue to incur additional costs for these proceedings. For additional information, see "Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies" in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

• The decrease in litigation settlement, net of recoveries in the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to the cost to settle litigation arising from proceedings outside the ordinary course of business in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

• The changes in foreign currency transaction (loss) gain in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates associated with foreign currency-denominated receivables and intercompany balances held by our subsidiary in the United Kingdom.

• The decreases in interest income in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to lower investment balances as a result of the repayment of the Notes at maturity on March 3, 2025.

• The decreases in interest expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to the repayment of the Notes at maturity on March 3, 2025.

• The changes in gain (loss) on capped call transactions was due to the expiration of the capped call in the three months ended March 31, 2025.

• The increases in other income, net in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 were primarily due to the gain from the partial sale of a venture investment. For additional information, see "Note 12. Fair Value Measurements" in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

(Benefit from) provision for income taxes		$	36,058		$	5,604
Effective income tax rate		24		%	*

* Not meaningful

Our effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025, is mainly attributable to the jurisdictional mix of earnings and is also impacted by excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets in the U.S. and U.K.

On July 4, 2025, the OBBBA was enacted into law. The OBBBA provides for significant U.S. tax law changes. ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes , provides that changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period of enactment. As a result, the Company is assessing the impact of this new legislation and will record any impacts in the period of enactment.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) has introduced new global minimum tax regulations, known as Pillar Two, that was supported by over 130 countries worldwide. Certain aspects of Pillar Two are effective for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2024. Although the U.S. has not enacted legislation to adopt Pillar Two, certain countries in which we operate have already adopted, or are in the process of adopting, legislation to implement Pillar Two. We do not expect this legislation to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We will continue to monitor and evaluate new legislation and guidance, which could change our current assessment.

Total cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and restricted cash	$	416,113	$	744,399

We believe that our current cash, marketable securities, cash flow provided by operations, borrowing capacity, and ability to engage in capital market transactions will be sufficient to fund our operations, stock repurchases, and quarterly cash dividends for at least the next 12 months and to meet our known long-term cash requirements. Whether these resources are adequate to meet our liquidity needs beyond that period will depend on our future growth, operating results, and the investments needed to support our operations. We may utilize available funds or seek external financing if we require additional capital resources.

If it becomes necessary or desirable to repatriate foreign funds, we may have to pay federal, state, and local income taxes as well as foreign withholding taxes upon repatriation. However, estimating the taxes we would have to pay is impracticable due to the complexity of income tax laws and regulations.

Operating activities

The change in cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to increase in client collections.

Investing activities

The change in cash provided by (used in) investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily due to scheduled maturities of our investments in financial instruments in anticipation of the repayment of the maturing Notes and the consideration received from the sale of a venture investment.

Financing activities

Debt financing

In February 2020, we issued $600 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes, which matured on March 1, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, we had $468 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding, which were repaid in their entirety at maturity. For additional information, see "Note 10. Debt" in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

In November 2019, and as since amended, we entered into a five-year $100 million senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association. Effective as of February 4, 2025, the Credit Facility was amended to extend the expiration date to February 4, 2027.

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had letters of credit of $26.7 million and $27.3 million, respectively, under the Credit Facility, however had no cash borrowings. For additional information, see "Note 10. Debt" in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, instead of receiving cash from the equity holders, we withheld shares with a value of $7.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively, for the exercise price of options. These amounts are not included in the table above.

Dividends

Following the Stock Split and commencing with the third quarter of 2025, we intend to pay a quarterly cash dividend of $0.03 per share, or the equivalent of $0.06 per share prior to the Stock Split. However, the Board of Directors may terminate or modify the dividend program without prior notice.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in financial market prices and rates.

Foreign currency exposure

Translation risk

Our international operations’ operating expenses are primarily denominated in foreign currencies. However, our international sales are also primarily denominated in foreign currencies, partially offsetting our foreign currency exposure.

A hypothetical 10% strengthening in the U.S. dollar against other currencies would have resulted in the following:

Remeasurement risk

We incur transaction gains and losses from the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the entities in which they are recorded.

We are primarily exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with the Australian dollar, Euro, and U.S. dollar-denominated cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, receivables, and intercompany balances held by our U.K. subsidiary, a British pound functional entity.

A hypothetical 10% strengthening in the British pound exchange rate in comparison to the Australian dollar, Euro, and U.S. dollar would have resulted in the following impact:

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2025. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our management necessarily applied its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2025.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
