1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business and Organization
ADT Inc., together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, “ADT” or the “Company”), provides security, interactive, and smart home solutions to consumer and small business customers in the United States (“U.S.”).
Prior to March 11, 2024, the Company was majority-owned by Prime Security Services TopCo (ML), L.P., which is majority-owned by Prime Security Services TopCo Parent, L.P. (“Ultimate Parent”). Ultimate Parent is majority-owned by Apollo Investment Fund VIII, L.P. and its related funds that are directly or indirectly managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries and affiliates, “Apollo” or the “Sponsor”). Following a registered secondary offering of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) by certain Apollo affiliates (and the Company’s concurrent repurchase from the underwriters of 15 million shares of Common Stock that were the subject of the offering), including the exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option which closed on March 19, 2024, Apollo beneficially owns less than 50 % of the Company’s outstanding common stock, which includes Common Stock and Class B common stock (“Class B Common Stock”) combined, and less than 50 % of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, and the Company ceased to be a “controlled company” under the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) rules.
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in U.S. dollars in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
The financial statements included herein comprise the consolidated results of ADT Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The results of companies acquired (if applicable) are included from the effective dates of acquisition, and all intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
In August 2023, ADT entered into an agreement to divest its commercial business (the “Commercial Business”), which was completed in October 2023 (the “Commercial Divestiture”). Beginning in the third quarter of 2023, the Company presented its Commercial Business as a discontinued operation. Refer to Note 4 “Divestitures” for additional information. Unless otherwise noted, amounts and disclosures throughout these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements relate to the Company’s continuing operations.
The Company sold its shares in SNTNL LLC (“Canopy”) during the fourth quarter of 2023. Prior to the sale, the Company used the equity method of accounting to account for its investment in Canopy as it had the ability to exercise significant influence but did not control.
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, such financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The interim results reported herein should not be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for future interim periods or the full year.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2023 included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. Certain information and footnote disclosures required in the annual consolidated financial statements have been omitted as appropriate. For a more comprehensive understanding of the Company and its interim results, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”).
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the Company to select accounting policies and make estimates that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The Company’s estimates are based on the relevant information available at the end of each period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or market conditions.

Merger, Restructuring, Integration, and Other
Merger, restructuring, integration, and other represents certain direct and incremental costs resulting from acquisitions made by the Company, integration and optimization costs as a result of those acquisitions, costs related to the Company’s restructuring efforts, as well as fair value remeasurements and impairment charges on certain strategic investments.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents, accounts receivable, retail installment contract receivables, accounts payable, debt, and derivative financial instruments. Due to their short-term and/or liquid nature, the fair values of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their respective carrying amounts.
Cash Equivalents - Included in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents, as applicable from time to time, are investments in money market mutual funds. These investments are generally classified as Level 1 fair value measurements, which represent unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, investments in money market mutual funds were $ 41 million and $ 55 million, respectively.
Long-Term Debt Instruments - The fair values of the Company’s long-term debt instruments are determined using broker-quoted market prices, which represent quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities as well as other observable market data, and are classified as Level 2 fair value measurements. The carrying amounts of debt outstanding, if any, under the Company’s first lien revolving credit facility (the “First Lien Revolving Credit Facility”) and the 2020 Receivables Facility approximate their fair values as interest rates on these borrowings approximate current market rates.

In addition to details provided below, the Company’s disaggregated revenue is presented on the face of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, which includes monitoring and related services and security installation, product, and other revenue presented for its CSB segment, as well as Solar installation, product, and other revenue.
CSB Company-Owned - In transactions in which the Company provides monitoring and related services but retains ownership of the security system (referred to as Company-owned transactions), the Company’s performance obligations primarily include (i) monitoring and related services, which are recognized when these services are provided to the customer, and (ii) a material right associated with the one-time non-refundable fees in connection with the initiation of a monitoring contract which the customer will not be required to pay again upon a renewal of the contract (referred to as deferred subscriber acquisition revenue). Deferred subscriber acquisition revenue is amortized on a pooled basis over the estimated life of the customer relationship using an accelerated method consistent with the treatment of subscriber system assets and deferred subscriber acquisition costs and is reflected in security installation, product, and other revenue.

Solar - As discussed in Note 4 “Divestitures,” the Company began exiting the residential solar business in January 2024.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenue and cost of revenue from the sale of solar equipment was not material. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, revenue and cost of revenue from the sale of solar equipment was approximately $ 75 million and $ 52 million, respectively.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company evaluates its allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable in pools based on customer type. For each customer pool, the allowance for credit losses is estimated based on the delinquency status of the underlying receivables and the related historical loss experience, as adjusted for current and expected future conditions, if applicable. The allowance for credit losses is not material for the individual pools of customers.

Retail Installment Contract Receivables, Net
For security system transactions occurring under both Company-owned and customer-owned equipment models, the Company’s retail installment contract option allows qualifying residential customers to pay the fees due at installation over a 24-, 36-, or 60-month interest-free period, and there is no significant financing component.
Upon origination of a retail installment contract, the Company utilizes external credit scores to assess customer credit quality and determine eligibility. Subsequent to origination, the Company monitors the delinquency status of retail installment contract receivables as the key credit quality indicator.

3. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s segments are based on the manner in which the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) evaluates performance and makes decisions about how to allocate resources.
As discussed in Note 1 “Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” the Company reports results in two operating and reportable segments: CSB and Solar.
The Company organizes its segments based on customer type as follows:
• CSB - Customers in the CSB segment comprise owners and renters of residential properties, small business operators, and other individual consumers. The CSB segment includes the sale, installation, servicing, and monitoring of integrated security and automation systems and other related offerings.
• Solar - Customers in the Solar segment comprise residential homeowners. The Solar segment includes the sale and installation of solar systems, energy storage solutions, roofing services, and other related offerings.
11
ADT INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
The CSB and Solar segments include the respective revenue and operating costs related to the activities noted above, other operating costs associated with support functions related to these operations, and certain dedicated corporate costs and other income and expense items. The CSB segment includes general corporate costs and other income and expense items not included in the Solar segment.
The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations (“Adjusted EBITDA”), which is the Company’s segment profit measure, to evaluate segment performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations adjusted for (i) interest; (ii) taxes; (iii) depreciation and amortization, including depreciation of subscriber system assets and other fixed assets and amortization of dealer and other intangible assets; (iv) amortization of deferred costs and deferred revenue associated with subscriber acquisitions; (v) share-based compensation expense; (vi) merger, restructuring, integration, and other items; (vii) impairment charges; and (viii) non-cash, non-routine, or other adjustments or charges not necessary to operate our business.
The CODM does not review the Company's assets by segment; therefore, such information is not presented.

The Company may decide to divest or exit a portion of its business for various reasons, including efforts to focus on its other businesses. The Company presents discontinued operations for components of the business that are either disposed of through sale (or qualify as held for sale), abandonment, or spin-off if these actions also represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company’s financial results.
ADT Solar Exit
In November 2023, the Company announced a plan to streamline the solar business to focus on the top performing markets and rationalize the overhead and infrastructure of the business. As part of this plan, the Company closed a significant number of branches that operated the solar business along with making associated headcount reductions.
On January 19, 2024, after a strategic review of the business and continued macroeconomic and industry pressures, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”) approved a plan to fully exit the residential solar business (the “ADT Solar Exit”). The solar business is currently reflected in the solar operating and reportable segment.

Significant changes in the Company’s debt during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were as follows:
First Lien Credit Agreement
The Company’s first lien credit agreement, dated as of July 1, 2015 (together with subsequent amendments and restatements, the “First Lien Credit Agreement”), contains a term loan (the “First Lien Term Loan B due 2030”) and the First Lien Revolving Credit Facility.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company borrowed $ 95 million and repaid $ 45 million under the First Lien Revolving Credit Facility; and as of March 31, 2024, the available borrowing capacity was $ 525 million.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, there were no borrowings or repayments under the First Lien Revolving Credit Facility.
Subsequent Event - The Company amended and restated the First Lien Credit Agreement, which reduced the interest rate on the First Lien Term Loan B due 2030 from Term SOFR + 2.50 % to Term SOFR + 2.25 %.
17
ADT INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Other than as described above, the loans under the amended and restated First Lien Credit Agreement continue to have the same terms as provided under the existing First Lien Credit Agreement and the parties to the amended and restated First Lien Credit Agreement continue to have the same obligations set forth in the existing First Lien Credit Agreement.
First Lien Notes due 2024 Redemption
Subsequent Event - In April 2024, the Company redeemed the remaining outstanding principal balance of $ 100 million of the First Lien Notes due 2024, excluding accrued and unpaid interest, using proceeds from the Company’s First Lien Revolving Credit Facility.
2020 Receivables Facility
Under the 2020 Receivables Facility, the Company obtains financing by selling or contributing certain retail installment contract receivables to the Company’s wholly-owned consolidated bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity (the “SPE”), which then grants a security interest in those retail installment contract receivables as collateral for cash borrowings.
In March 2024, the Company amended the agreement governing the 2020 Receivables Facility, pursuant to which the uncommitted revolving period was extended from March 2024 to April 2024.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had an uncommitted available borrowing capacity under the 2020 Receivables Facility of approximately $ 56 million.
Subsequent Event - In April 2024, the Company amended the agreement governing the 2020 Receivables Facility, pursuant to which, among other things, the borrowing capacity was increased from $ 500 million to $ 550 million and the uncommitted revolving period was extended from April 2024 to April 2025.
Variable Interest Entity
The SPE meets the definition of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary as it has the power to direct the SPE’s activities and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the SPE. As such, the Company consolidates the SPE’s assets, liabilities, and financial results of operations.
The SPE’s assets and liabilities primarily consist of a portion of the Company’s unbilled retail installment contract receivables, net, as discussed in Note 2 “Revenue and Receivables,” and borrowings under the 2020 Receivables Facility, as presented above.
The 2020 Receivables Facility did not have a material impact to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the periods presented.
Solar Receivables Facility
On August 2, 2023, Compass Solar Group, LLC (“Compass”) and ADT Solar Finance LLC (“ADT Solar Finance”), each an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ADT Inc. entered into a Receivables Financing Agreement with Mizuho Bank, Ltd. (the “Solar Receivables Financing Agreement”) to finance receivables generated by the installation of residential solar systems. The Solar Receivables Financing Agreement, among other things, provides for an uncommitted revolving loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of up to $ 300 million which loans are secured by substantially all the assets of ADT Solar Finance (the “Solar Receivables Facility”).
As of March 31, 2024, the Company has not borrowed any amounts under the Solar Receivable Facility, and given the ADT Solar Exit, the Company does not expect to borrow any amounts under the Solar Receivables Facility. The Solar Receivables Facility’s uncommitted revolving period will expire in August 2024, unless terminated beforehand.
7. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company's derivative financial instruments primarily consist of interest rate swap contracts, which were entered into with the objective of managing exposure to variability in interest rates on the Company's debt. As of July 2023, SOFR is the applicable benchmark for all of the Company's interest rate swap contracts. All interest rate swap contracts are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value.

For interest rate swap contracts that are:
• Not designated as cash flow hedges: Unrealized gains and losses are recognized in interest expense, net, and other income (expense) depending on the nature of the underlying that the swaps are economically hedging.
• Designated as cash flow hedges: Unrealized gains and losses are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) and are reclassified into interest expense, net, in the same period in which the related interest on debt affects earnings.
For interest rate swap contracts that have been de-designated as cash flow hedges and for which forecasted cash flows are:
• Probable or reasonably possible of occurring: Unrealized gains and losses previously recognized as a component of AOCI are reclassified into interest expense, net, in the same period in which the related interest on variable-rate debt affects earnings through the original maturity date of the related interest rate swap contracts.
• Probable of not occurring: Unrealized gains and losses previously recognized as a component of AOCI are immediately reclassified into interest expense, net.
The cash flows associated with interest rate swap contracts that included an other-than-insignificant financing element at inception are reflected as cash flows from financing activities.
The cash flows associated with interest rate swap contracts that were entered into with the intention of offsetting the economic overhedged position of a portion of our existing interest rate swaps are reflected as cash flows from investing activities.

8. INCOME TAXES
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
The Company’s unrecognized tax benefits relate to tax years that remain subject to audit by the taxing authorities in the U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign jurisdictions. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not have a material change to its unrecognized tax benefits from those disclosed in the 2023 Annual Report. Based on the current status of its income tax audits, the Company expects approximately $ 29 million of its unrecognized tax benefits will be resolved in the next twelve months.
Effective Tax Rate
The effective tax rate can vary from period to period due to permanent tax adjustments, discrete items such as the settlement of income tax audits and changes in tax laws, as well as recurring factors such as changes in the overall state tax rate. The discussion below is based on the continuing operations of the Company.
The Company’s income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $ 31 million, resulting in an effective tax rate for the period of 25.1 %. The effective tax rate primarily represents the federal statutory rate of 21.0 %, a state tax rate, net of federal benefits, of 5.5 %, partially offset by a favorable impact of 2.1 % related to a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits related to prior years.
The Company’s income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $ 74 million, resulting in an effective tax rate for the period of 37.3 %. The effective tax rate primarily represents the federal statutory tax rate of 21.0 %, a state tax rate, net of federal benefits, of 8.9 % and unfavorable impacts of 5.6 % related to the Solar goodwill impairment, partially offset by favorable impacts of 5.0 % from federal tax credits.

10. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
RSUs
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company completed its annual long-term incentive plan equity award to employees and granted approximately 3.9 million RSUs under its 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2018 Plan”) with a grant date fair value of $ 6.51 equal to the closing price per share of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant. These RSUs are service-based awards with a three-year graded vesting period from the date of grant.
Options
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company granted approximately 6.8 million options under the 2018 Plan. These options are service-based awards with a three -year graded vesting period from the date of grant and have an exercise price of $ 6.51 , which is equal to the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, and a contractual term of ten years from the grant date. The weighted-average grant date fair value for the options granted was $ 2.56 .
The Company used a binomial lattice model to determine the grant date fair value for options granted and included the following assumptions:

11. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
The Company applies the two-class method for computing and presenting net income (loss) per share for each class of common stock, which allocates current period net income (loss) to each class of common stock and participating securities based on dividends declared and participation rights in the remaining undistributed earnings or losses.
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) allocated to each class of common stock by the related weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share gives effect to all securities representing potential common shares that were dilutive and outstanding during the period for each class of common stock and excludes potentially dilutive securities whose effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Common Stock
Potential shares of Common Stock include (i) incremental shares related to the vesting or exercise of share-based compensation awards, warrants, and other options to purchase additional shares of the Company’s Common Stock calculated using the treasury stock method and (ii) incremental shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of Class B Common Stock. Additionally, the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for Common Stock exclude approximately 9 million unvested shares as their vesting is contingent upon achievement of certain performance requirements.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contractual Obligations
There have been no significant changes to the Company’s contractual obligations as compared to December 31, 2023, except as discussed below:
Google Commercial Agreement
In July 2020, the Company and Google entered into a Master Supply, Distribution, and Marketing Agreement (the “Google Commercial Agreement”), pursuant to which Google has agreed to supply the Company with certain Google devices as well as certain Google video and analytics services (“Google Devices and Services”), for sale to the Company’s customers.
The Google Commercial Agreement also specifies that each party shall contribute $ 150 million toward joint marketing, customer acquisition, training of the Company’s employees, and product technology updates related to the Google Devices and Services. In August 2022, the Company and Google executed an amendment to the Google Commercial Agreement, pursuant to which Google has agreed to commit an additional $ 150 million to fund growth, data and insights, product innovation and technology advancements, customer acquisition, and marketing, as mutually agreed by the Company and Google, (together with the initial amounts, the “Google Success Funds”).
During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, $ 7.4 million and $ 12.5 million, respectively, of the Google Success Funds were approved for reimbursement to the Company for certain joint marketing and customer acquisition expenses incurred by the Company.
Google Cloud Agreement Addendum
In December 2023, the Company and Google entered into an addendum to the Company’s existing agreement with Google for using Google cloud services (the “Google Cloud Agreement Addendum”), pursuant to which Google has agreed to provide certain credits, discounts, and other incentives for use of the Google Cloud Platform to the Company, and the Company has committed to purchasing $ 200 million of Google Cloud Platform services over seven years (through December 2030), with

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
$ 35 million in the first two years , $ 65 million in the next two years after that, and $ 100 million in the last three years of the commitment. The Company may elect to cancel the commitment in return for a cancellation fee of 30 % of the total remaining commitment amount and loss of any discounts, remaining credits, or other incentives provided under the Google Cloud Agreement Addendum.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company made purchases toward this commitment of $ 5 million.
Other Commitments
During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company entered into an agreement with one of its vendors to purchase at least $ 190 million of security system equipment and components through March 2025. This commitment is also satisfied through purchases made by the Company’s dealer network. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, purchases toward this commitment were $ 43 million.
Guarantees
In the normal course of business, the Company is liable for contract completion and product performance. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s guarantees primarily relate to standby letters of credit related to its insurance programs and totaled $ 78 million for both periods, respectively. The Company does not believe such obligations will materially affect its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to various claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, which include among other things commercial general liability claims, automobile liability claims, contractual disputes, worker’s compensation claims, labor law and employment claims, claims that the Company infringed on the intellectual property of others, and consumer and employment class actions. The Company is also subject to regulatory and governmental examinations, information requests and subpoenas, inquiries, investigations, and threatened legal actions and proceedings. In connection with such formal and informal inquiries, the Company receives numerous requests, subpoenas, and orders for documents, testimony, and information in connection with various aspects of its activities. There have been no material changes to these matters from those disclosed in the 2023 Annual Report.
The Company records accruals for losses that are probable and reasonably estimable. These accruals are based on a variety of factors such as judgment, probability of loss, opinions of internal and external legal counsel, and actuarially determined estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported based upon historical claims experience. Legal costs in connection with claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business are expensed as incurred. Additionally, the Company records insurance recovery receivables from third-party insurers when recovery has been determined to be probable. The Company has not accrued for any losses for which the likelihood of loss cannot be assessed, is less than probable, or the range of possible loss cannot be estimated.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s accrual for ongoing claims and lawsuits within the scope of an insurance program totaled $ 104 million and $ 110 million, respectively. The Company’s accrual related to ongoing claims and lawsuits not within the scope of an insurance program is not material.

For transactions in which (i) the timing and pattern of transfer is the same for the lease and non-lease components and (ii) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if accounted for separately, the Company applies the practical expedient to aggregate the lease and non-lease components and accounts for the combined transaction based upon its predominant characteristic, which is the non-lease component. The Company accounts for the combined component as a single performance obligation under the applicable revenue guidance and recognizes the underlying assets within subscriber system assets, net.
14. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company’s related party transactions primarily relate to products and services received from, or monitoring and related services provided to, other entities affiliated with Apollo, and, from time to time, management, consulting, and transaction advisory services provided by Apollo to the Company, as well as transactions between the Company and State Farm. There were no notable related party transactions during the periods presented other than as described below.
Apollo
Offering and Share Repurchase
On March 6, 2024, the Company and certain entities managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, Inc. (the “Selling Stockholders”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Barclays Capital Inc., as representatives of the underwriters named therein, including Apollo Global Securities, LLC, an affiliate of Apollo (collectively, the “Underwriters”), in connection with the offer and sale by the Selling Stockholders (the “Offering”) of 65 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and, at the option of the Underwriters, up to an additional 9.75 million shares of Common Stock (the “Underwriters’ Option”).
As part of the Offering, the Company purchased 15 million shares of Common Stock under its Share Repurchase Plan from the Underwriters (the “Share Repurchase”). The Company paid approximately $ 93 million (or approximately $ 6.22 per share) for the Share Repurchase, which was the same per share price paid by the Underwriters to the Selling Stockholders. The repurchase is reflected as a reduction to additional paid-in-capital and as a financing cash outflow.
The Offering and the Share Repurchase closed on March 11, 2024. On March 15, 2024, the Underwriters exercised the Underwriters’ Option in full, which subsequently closed on March 19, 2024. The Company did not pay any underwriting fees in connection with the Share Repurchase, including on behalf of the Selling Stockholders or otherwise.
All the shares in the Offering were sold by the Selling Stockholders. The Company did not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares by the Selling Stockholders in the Offering.
Other
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company incurred fees to Apollo of $ 1 million related to Apollo’s performance of placement agent services related to the initial funding of the Term Loan A Facility.
State Farm
State Farm owns approximately 15 % of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, and as a result, is a related party.
In October 2022, the Company, ADT LLC (an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company), and State Farm entered into a development agreement (the “State Farm Development Agreement”) in connection with State Farm’s strategic investment in ADT. Pursuant to the State Farm Development Agreement, State Farm committed up to $ 300 million to fund certain initiatives as agreed to between the Company and State Farm related to the partnership (the “Opportunity Fund”), of which the Company has received $ 100 million. Amounts held by the Company in the Opportunity Fund will be restricted until the Company uses the funds, as agreed upon with State Farm, in accordance with the State Farm Development Agreement.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the balance in the portion of the Opportunity Fund held by the Company was $ 92 million and $ 94 million, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company made payments from the Opportunity Fund of $ 3 million and $ 2 million, respectively. Interest earned on the Opportunity Fund was not material.
