Rapid7, Inc.:
Opinions on the Consolidated Financial Statements and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Rapid7, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Basis for Opinions
The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated 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.
Sufficiency of audit evidence over product subscriptions revenue
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company derives revenue primarily from product subscriptions revenue which consists of cloud-based subscriptions, managed services, term software licenses, content subscriptions and maintenance and support associated with its software licenses. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded revenue of $844 million, which includes product subscriptions revenue of $809 million. The Company has high volumes of transactions and the processing and recording of the related product subscriptions revenue is reliant upon the Company’s information technology (IT) system.
We identified the evaluation of the sufficiency of audit evidence over product subscriptions revenue as a critical audit matter. Subjective auditor judgment was required to determine the nature and extent of procedures performed over the processing and recording of product subscriptions revenue because the revenue recognition process is highly automated. Additionally, specialized skills and knowledge were required to test the IT system used for the processing and recording of product subscriptions revenue.
The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We applied auditor judgment to determine the nature and extent of procedures to be performed over the processing and recording of product subscriptions revenue, including the related IT system. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the processing and recording of product subscriptions revenue. We involved IT professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in evaluating the design and testing the operating effectiveness of certain general IT and application controls. For a sample of product subscriptions revenue transactions, we determined the revenue to be recorded in the current period based on the underlying contract and compared it to the Company's recorded balances. In addition, we evaluated the sufficiency of audit evidence obtained by assessing the results of procedures performed, including the appropriateness of the nature and extent of such evidence.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(1) Nature of Business
Rapid7, Inc. and subsidiaries (“we,” “us” or “our”) are advancing security with visibility, analytics, and automation delivered through our Command Platform. Our solutions simplify the complex, allowing security teams to work more effectively with IT and development to reduce vulnerabilities, monitor for malicious behavior, investigate and shut down attacks, and automate routine tasks.
Immaterial Correction of an Error
During the fourth quarter of 2024, we identified an immaterial error related to stock-based compensation expense associated with certain restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance stock units (“PSUs”) granted during fiscal years 2023 and 2024 attributable to an improper valuation of the underlying awards, resulting in an understatement of stock-based compensation expense in 2023 and 2024. Based on an analysis of quantitative and qualitative factors in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99, Materiality , and SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements , and as described further in Note 20, Immaterial Correction of an Error , we evaluated the errors and determined the related impacts were not material to our consolidated financial statements for the prior periods when they occurred, but that correcting the cumulative errors in the period detected would have been material to our results of operations for that period. Accordingly, we revised previously reported financial information presented herein for such immaterial errors.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include our results of operations and those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
(b) Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The management estimates include, but are not limited to the determination of standalone selling prices in revenue transactions with multiple performance obligations, the estimated period of benefit for deferred contract acquisition costs, the useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, the valuation for credit losses, the valuation of stock-based compensation, the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, the valuation of contingent consideration in business combinations, the incremental borrowing rate for operating leases and the valuation for deferred tax assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(c) Revenue Recognition
We generate revenue primarily from: (1) product subscriptions from the sale of cloud-based subscriptions, managed services, term software licenses, content subscriptions and maintenance and support associated with
66
Table of Contents
our software licenses and (2) professional services from the sale of our deployment and training services related to our solutions, incident response services, penetration testing and security advisory services.
We recognize revenue when a customer obtains control of promised products or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration that we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these products or services. To achieve the core principle of this standard, we apply the following four steps:
1) Identify the contract with a customer
We consider the terms and conditions of the contracts and our customary business practices in identifying our contracts. We determine we have a contract with a customer when the contract is approved, we can identify each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred, we can identify the payment terms for the services, and we have determined the customer has the ability and intent to pay and the contract has commercial substance. We apply judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intent to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.
2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the products and services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the product or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from us, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the products or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.
3) Determine the transaction price
The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for transferring products or services to the customer. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in our judgment, it is probable that no significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will occur.
In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, we have determined our contracts generally do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of our invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing our products and services, not to receive financing from our customers or to provide customers with financing. Examples include invoicing at the beginning of a subscription term with revenue recognized ratably over the contract period.
Sales through our channel network of distributors and resellers are generally discounted as compared to the price that we would sell to an end user. Revenue for sales through our channel network is recorded net of any distributor or reseller margin.
If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. The majority of our contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, we account for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price (“SSP”) basis. We determine SSP of our products and services based on our overall pricing objectives using all information reasonably available to us, taking into consideration market conditions and other factors, including the geographic locations of our customers, negotiated discounts from price lists and selling method (i.e., partner or direct). When available, we use directly observable stand-alone transactions to determine SSP. When not regularly sold on a stand-alone basis, we estimate SSP for our products and services utilizing historical sales data, including discounts from list price. The historical data is aggregated and analyzed by geographic location and selling method to establish a median or average price. Once SSP is established it is applied consistently to all transactions including that product or service utilizing a portfolio approach.
4) Recognize revenue when or as we satisfy a performance obligation
Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised product or service to a customer. Revenue is recognized when control of the products or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services.
Product Subscriptions
67
Table of Contents
Product subscriptions consists of revenue from our cloud-based subscription, term software licenses, managed services offerings, content subscriptions and maintenance and support associated with our software licenses.
• We generate cloud-based subscription revenue primarily from sales of subscriptions to access our cloud platform, together with related support services to our customers. These arrangements do not provide the customer with the right to take possession of our software operating on our cloud platform at any time. Instead, customers are granted continuous access to our cloud platform over the contractual period. Revenue is recognized over time on a ratable basis over the contract term beginning on the date that our service is made available to the customer. Our cloud-based subscription contracts generally have annual or multi-year contractual terms which are billed in advance of the annual subscription period and are non-cancellable.
• Managed services offerings consist of fees generated when we operate our software and provide our capabilities on behalf of our customers. Revenue is recognized on a ratable basis over the contract term beginning on the date that our service is made available to the customer. Our managed services offerings generally have annual or multi-year contractual terms which are billed in advance of the annual subscription period and are non-cancellable.
• For our term software licenses where the utility to the customer is dependent on the continued delivery of content subscriptions, we recognize the license revenue over the contractual term of the content subscription.
• Content subscriptions and our maintenance and support services are sold with our term software licenses. Revenue related to our content subscriptions associated with our software licenses is recognized ratably over the contractual period.
Professional Services
All of our professional services are considered distinct performance obligations when sold stand alone or with other products. These contracts generally have terms of one year or less. For the majority of these arrangements, revenue is recognized over time based upon the proportion of work performed to date.
Contract Balances
Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and include payments received in advance of performance under the contract. Such amounts are recognized as revenue over the contractual period consistent with the above methodology. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized revenue of $ 457.5 million that was included in the corresponding contract liability balance at the beginning of the period presented. Deferred revenue that will be realized during the succeeding 12-month period is recorded as current, and the remaining deferred revenue is recorded as non-current.
We receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Unbilled receivables include amounts related to our contractual right to consideration for both completed and partially completed performance obligations that have not been invoiced. If the right to consideration is based on satisfaction of another performance obligation in the contract other than the passage of time, we would record a contract asset. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, unbilled receivables of $ 2.5 million and $ 2.0 million are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in our consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, we have no contract assets recorded on our consolidated balance sheet.
(d) Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
We consider all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value. As of December 31, 2024, we had $ 7.4 million of restricted cash recorded on our consolidated balance sheet as a component of prepaid expenses and other current assets associated with cash collateralized letters of credit with expirations within twelve months of the balance sheet date which relate to certain long-term office space leases.
(e) Investments
Our investments consist o f U.S. Government agencies. We classify our investments as available-for-sale and record these investments at fair value. When the fair value of an investment declines below its amortized cost
68
Table of Contents
basis, any portion of that decline attributable to credit losses, to the extent expected to be nonrecoverable before the sale of the security, is recognized in our consolidated statements of operations. When the fair value of the investment declines below its amortized cost basis due to changes in interest rates, such amounts are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and are recognized in our consolidated statement of operations only if we sell or intend to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis. Realized gains and losses are determined based on the specific identification method, and are reflected in our consolidated statements of operations.
Investments with an original maturity of greater than three months at the date of purchase and less than one year from the date of the balance sheet are classified as short-term and those with maturities of more than one year from the date of the balance sheet are classified as long-term in the consolidated balance sheet. We do not invest in any securities with contractual maturities greater than 24 months.
(f) Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of allowances for credit losses for any potential uncollectible amounts. We maintain an allowance for estimated credit losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. Management regularly reviews the adequacy of the allowance for credit loss based upon historical collection experience, the age of the receivable, an evaluation of each customer's expected ability to pay and current and future economic and market conditions. Additions to the allowance for credit losses are recorded in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations. Accounts receivable deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance for credit losses. We do not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to our customers.
(g) Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially expose us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investments and derivative financial instruments.
We invest only in high-quality credit instruments and our cash and cash equivalents and available for sale investments consist primarily of fixed income securities. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold our investments are financially sound and, accordingly, are subject to minimal credit risk. Deposits held with banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.
We provide credit to customers in the normal course of business. Collateral is not required for accounts receivable, but ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition are performed. We maintain reserves for potential credit losses. No single customer, including channel partners, accounted for 10% or more of our total revenues in 2024, 2023 or 2022 or accounts receivable as of December 31, 2024 or 2023.
Our derivative financial instruments expose us to credit risk to the extent that the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the arrangement. We mitigate this credit risk by transacting with major financial institutions with high credit ratings.
(h) Deferred Contract Acquisition Costs
We defer contract costs that are recoverable and incremental to obtaining customer contracts. Contract costs, which primarily consist of sales commissions, are amortized on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer to the customer of the goods or services to which the asset relates. Contract costs for a new customer, upsell or cross-sell are amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated period of benefit of five years as sales commissions on initial sales are not commensurate with sales commissions on contract renewals. We determined the estimated period of benefit by taking into consideration the contractual term and expected renewals of customer contracts, our technology and other factors, including the fact that sales commissions paid on renewals are not commensurate with commissions paid on initial sales transactions. Contract costs relating to contract renewals are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted average contract length of renewal contracts. Contract costs for professional services arrangements are expensed as incurred in accordance with the practical expedient as the contractual period of our professional services arrangements is one year or less.
We classify deferred contract costs as short-term or long-term based on when we expect to recognize the expense. Amortization expense associated with deferred contract acquisition costs is recorded to sales and marketing expense in our consolidated statements of operations. We periodically review the carrying amount of deferred contract acquisition costs to determine whether events or changes in circumstances have occurred that could impact the period of benefit.
69
Table of Contents
(i) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The following table presents the useful lives of our property and equipment:
Useful Lives
Computer equipment and software 3 years
Furniture and fixtures 3 - 5 years
Leasehold improvements Shorter of the useful life of the asset or the lease term
Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.
(j) Software Development Costs
Software development costs associated with the development of products for sale are recorded to research and development expense until technological feasibility has been established for the product. Once technological feasibility is established, all software costs are capitalized until the product is available for release to customers. To date, the software development costs have not been capitalized as the cost incurred and time between technological feasibility and product release was insignificant. As such, these costs are expensed as incurred and recognized in research and development expenses in our consolidated statements of operations.
Costs related to software developed, acquired or modified for internal use are capitalized. Costs incurred during the preliminary planning and evaluation stage of the project and during the post implementation stages of the project are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred during the application development stage of the project are capitalized. These capitalized costs consist of internal compensation related costs and external direct costs. Costs related to software developed for internal use are amortized over an estimated useful life of 3 years. We capitalized $ 14.2 million , $ 15.9 million and $ 17.1 million of costs related to software developed for internal use in the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had impairment losses of capitalized internal-use software projects of $ 0.7 million and $ 3.5 million, respectively, which was expensed within research and development expense in our consolidated statements of operations. Management evaluates the useful lives of these assets on an annual basis and tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets.
(k) Leases
We determine whether an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. We evaluate the classification of a lease at inception and, as necessary, at modification. Operating leases are recognized on the consolidated balance sheet as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, lease liabilities and, if applicable, long-term lease liabilities.
Operating lease ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. Operating lease liabilities represent our obligation to make payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the present value of future lease payments at the lease commencement date. The implicit rate within our operating leases is generally not determinable and therefore we use the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. We determine our incremental borrowing rate for each lease using our estimated borrowing rate, adjusted for various factors including level of collateralization, term and currency to align with the terms of the lease. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease prepayments and initial direct costs, offset by lease incentives. Operating lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Certain of our leases include options to extend or terminate the lease. An option to extend the lease is considered in connection with determining the ROU asset and lease liability when it is reasonably certain we will exercise that option. An option to terminate is considered unless it is reasonably certain we will not exercise the option.
We account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component and do not recognize operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term of one year or less.
70
Table of Contents
(l) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances occur, recoverability of these assets or asset groups is measured by a comparison of the carrying value of the assets to the future net undiscounted cash flows directly associated with the assets. If such assets or asset groups are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the assets or asset groups. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we determined that triggering events occurred which indicated that the carrying value of our ROU and other lease-related assets related to a change in usage of certain idle office space at our corporate headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts as well as idle office spaces located in Plano, Texas; Los Angeles, California; and Toronto, Canada may not be fully recoverable. As a result, we utilized discounted cash flow models to estimate the fair value of the asset groups taking into consideration the time period it will take to obtain sublessees, the applicable discount rate and the anticipated sublease income and calculated the corresponding impairment loss. We used prices and other relevant information generated by recent market transactions involving similar or comparable assets, as well as our historical experience in real estate transactions. In the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded impairment losses of $ 30.8 million related to these idle office spaces, consisting of $ 22.2 million related to ROU assets and $ 8.6 million related to leasehold improvements associated with these leased office spaces.
(m) Restructuring Expense
We record restructuring expense when management commits to and approves a restructuring plan, the restructuring plan identifies all significant actions, the period of time to complete the restructuring plan indicates that significant changes to the restructuring plan are not likely to occur, and employees who are impacted have been notified of the pending involuntary termination. A restructuring plan generally includes significant actions involving employee-related severance charges, employee-related benefits, and other charges associated with the restructuring (collectively, “restructuring expense”). Restructuring expense is recorded within restructuring in the consolidated statement of operations. The restructuring liability accrued but not paid at the end of the reporting period is included within accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheet.
(n) Business Combinations
We allocate the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible asset acquired, liabilities assumed, and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair value of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. During the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the fair value of these assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the final determination of the fair value of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to the consolidated statements of operations. Determining the fair value of the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, cash flows that an asset is expected to generate in the future, technology migration curves, discount rates, and useful lives. While we use our best estimates and judgements, our estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement.
Contingent consideration arising from business combinations is recorded at fair value as a liability on the acquisition date and remeasured at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recorded in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Determining the fair value of the contingent consideration each period requires management to make assumptions and judgments. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties, and if different assumptions had been used, the fair value of contingent consideration could have been materially different from the amounts recorded.
Acquisition-related transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
(o) Goodwill
We perform an annual goodwill impairment test on the last day of each fiscal year and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of this asset may exceed its fair value. For our goodwill impairment analysis, we operate with a single reporting unit. To test goodwill impairment, we
71
Table of Contents
perform a single-step goodwill impairment test to identify potential goodwill impairment. The single-step impairment test begins with an estimation of the fair value of a reporting unit. Goodwill impairment exists when the net assets of a reporting unit exceed its fair value. In performing the single step of the goodwill impairment testing and measurement process, we estimated the fair value of our single reporting unit using our market capitalization. Based upon our assessment performed as of December 31, 2024, we concluded the fair value of our single reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and there was no impairment of goodwill.
(p) Foreign Currency
The functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. We translate all monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet dates and non-monetary assets and liabilities using historical exchange rates. Foreign currency denominated expenses are re-measured using the average exchange rates for the period. Foreign currency transaction and re-measurement gains and losses are included in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statement of operations. In 2024, foreign currency transact ion gains a nd foreign currency re-measurement gains were $ 0.6 million and $ 3.8 million, respectively. In 2023, foreign currency transaction losses and foreign currency re-measurement losses were $ 1.4 million and $ 0.4 million, respectively.
(q) Derivative and Hedging Activities
We are exposed to currency exchange rate risk. Although the majority of our revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars, a portion of our operating expenses are denominated in foreign currencies, making them subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We enter into foreign currency derivative contracts, which we designate as cash flow hedges, to manage the foreign currency exchange risk associated with these expenses.
Our derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value and reported as either an asset or liability on our consolidated balance sheets. Gains or losses related to our cash flow hedges are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in our consolidated balance sheets and are reclassified into the financial statement line item associated with the underlying hedged transaction in our consolidated statement of operations when the underlying hedged transaction is recognized in our earnings. If it becomes probable that the hedged transaction will not occur, the cumulative unrealized gain or loss is reclassified immediately from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into the financial statement line item associated with the underlying hedged transaction in our consolidated statement of operations. Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are classified in our consolidated statements of cash flow in the same manner as the underlying hedged transaction, primarily within cash flow from operating activities.
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, our cash flow hedges have contractual maturities of eighteen months or less, and as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, outstanding forward contracts had a total notional value of $ 50.4 million and $ 49.5 million, respectively. The notional value represents the gross amount of foreign currency that will be bought or sold upon maturity of the forward contract. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, all cash flow hedges were considered effective. Refer to Note 6, Fair Value Measurements , for the fair values of our outstanding derivative instruments.
(r) Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense related to our stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) and purchase rights issued under our 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) is calculated based on the estimated fair value of the award on the grant date.
The fair values of RSUs and PSUs are based on the value of our common stock on the date of grant. The fair values of stock options and ESPP purchase rights are estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires management to make a number of assumptions, including the expected life of the option, the volatility of the underlying stock, the risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. The assumptions used in our Black-Scholes option-pricing model represent management’s best estimates at the time of grant. These estimates involve a number of variables, uncertainties and assumptions and the application of management’s judgment, as they are inherently subjective. If any assumptions change, our stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.
The fair value is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. The actual number of PSUs earned and eligible to vest are determined based on the performance conditions defined when the awards are granted. We recognize share-based compensation expense for the PSUs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for
72
Table of Contents
each separately vesting portion of the award when it is probable that the performance conditions will be achieved. We reassess the probability of vesting at each reporting period for awards with performance conditions and adjust stock-based compensation cost based on its probability assessment. We recognize forfeitures as they occur and do not estimate a forfeiture rate when calculating the stock-based compensation expense.
(s) Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are recorded in sales and marketing expense in our consolidated statement of operations. We incurred $ 21.7 million , $ 22.4 million, and $ 22.7 million in advertising expense in 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.
(t) Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for differences between the consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective income tax bases, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Significant judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we consider all available evidence, including past operating results, estimates of future taxable income, and the feasibility of tax planning strategies. In the event that we change our determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, we will adjust our valuation allowance with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.
We recognize tax provision from uncertain tax positions if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Interest and penalties associated with such uncertain tax positions are classified as a component of income tax expense.
(u) Net Income (Loss) per Share
We calculate basic net income (loss) per share by dividing our net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive securities, including stock options, RSUs, PSUs, the impact of our ESPP, common shares issued in connection with acquisitions and the impact of our convertible senior notes (“Notes”). We intend to settle any conversion of our Notes in cash, shares, or a combination thereof. The dilutive impact of the Notes for our calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share is considered using the if-converted method. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the shares underlying the Notes were not considered in the calculation of diluted net loss per share as the effect would have been anti-dilutive.
(v) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”) , to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses on an interim and annual basis. All disclosure requirements of ASU 2023-07 are required for entities with a single reportable segment. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and should be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented.

Noetic Cyber, Inc.
On July 3, 2024, we acquired Noetic Cyber, Inc. (“Noetic”) a provider of cyber asset attack surface management, to extend Rapid7’s security operations platform by unlocking more accessible and accurate asset inventory in order to provide customers more comprehensive visibility to their attack surface, for a purchase price with an aggregate fair value of $ 51.2 million. The purchase consideration consisted of $ 38.6 million in cash paid at closing, $ 12.1 million of contingent consideration and $ 0.5 million of deferred cash payments. The deferred cash payments were held by Rapid7 to satisfy certain post-closing purchase price adjustments and payment was made during the fourth quarter of 2024.
Subject to the terms of the merger agreement, we are required to pay consideration of up to $ 20.0 million to Noetic shareholders based on the achievement of certain performance targets (the “Earnout Consideration”), measured
74
Table of Contents
annually upon the first, second and third anniversaries of the closing date of the transaction (the “Earnout Period”). If all performance targets are achieved, approximately $ 13.1 million of Earnout Consideration will be paid in cash, and the remaining $ 6.9 million of Earnout Consideration will be issued to certain employees in the form of shares of our common stock subject to continued employment requirements over the Earnout Period. The approximate $ 6.9 million of the Earnout Consideration that is subject to continued employment will be recognized as stock-based compensation expense over the required employment period. The fair value of the portion of the Earnout Consideration that is not subject to continued employment is included as part of purchase consideration at the date of the acquisition. As of July 3, 2024, we determined the fair value of the contingent purchase consideration to be $ 12.1 million. The fair value of the contingent purchase consideration will be reassessed each reporting period and any required adjustment will be recorded to general and administrative expense. As of December 31, 2024, the fair value of the contingent purchase consideration was $ 12.4 million, of which $ 6.9 million was recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $ 5.5 million was recorded within other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet. In the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded approximately $ 0.4 million of accretion expense related to the contingent purchase consideration to general and administrative expense.
In connection with the acquisition, we expect to issue an aggregate value of $ 2.3 million of our common stock to two key employees of Noetic in three installments over a 36 -month period following the closing date of the transaction, subject to continued employment requirements (the “Key Employee Consideration”) and therefore will be recognized as stock-based compensation expense over the required employment period.
The number of shares to be issued at each issuance date for both the Earnout Consideration and the Key Employee Consideration shares will be determined by dividing the aggregate value by the fair market value of our common stock on the issuance date, and therefore will be liability-classified until the final issuance dates. In the year ended December 31, 2024 , we recognized stock-based compensation expense related to such shares in the amount of $ 2.1 million.
The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of purchase price to the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date (in thousands):
Consideration:
Cash $ 38,597
Deferred cash consideration 500
Contingent consideration 12,055
Fair value of total consideration transferred $ 51,152
Recognized amount of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Cash and cash equivalents $ 1,296
Accounts receivable 510
Prepaid and other current assets 102
Property and equipment, net 19
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities ( 220 )
Deferred revenue ( 910 )
Other long-term liabilities ( 62 )
Intangible asset 11,500
Total identifiable net assets assumed $ 12,235
Goodwill 38,917
Total purchase price allocation $ 51,152
We identified developed technology as the sole acquired intangible asset. The estimated fair value of the developed technology intangible asset was $ 11.5 million which was based on a valuation using a probability weighted expected return model (“PWERM”). The estimated useful life of the developed technology is 7 years.
The excess of the purchase price over the tangible assets acquired, identifiable intangible asset acquired and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill. We believe that the amount of goodwill reflects the expected synergistic benefits of being able to leverage the integration of the technology acquired with our existing product offerings and being able
75
Table of Contents
to successfully market and sell these new features to our customer base. The goodwill was allocated to our one reporting unit. The acquired goodwill and intangible asset were not deductible for tax purposes.
In the year ended December 31, 2024 , we recorded $ 0.8 million of acquisition-related transaction costs related to the acquisition of Noetic to general and administrative expense.
Our revenue and net loss attributable to the Noetic business for the year ended December 31, 2024 was not material.
Minerva Labs Ltd.
On March 14, 2023, we acquired Minerva Labs Ltd. (“Minerva”), a leading provider of anti-evasion and ransomware prevention technology, for a purchase price with an aggregate fair value of $ 34.6 million . The purchase consideration consisted of $ 35.0 million paid in cash at closing and a $( 0.4 ) million receivable for purchase price adjustments.
The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. The fair value of net assets acquired (including intangible assets), goodwill and intangible assets were $ 13.9 million , $ 20.7 million and $ 12.8 million , respectively. The goodwill was allocated to our one reporting unit. The acquired goodwill and intangible assets were not deductible for tax purposes.

As of December 31, 2024, our available-for-sale investments had maturities ranging from 1 to 17 months. As of December 31, 2023, our available-for-sale investments had maturities ranging from 1 to 18 months.
For all of our investments for which the amortized cost basis was greater than the fair value at December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have concluded that there is no plan to sell the security nor is it more likely than not that we would be required to sell the security before its anticipated maturity. In making the determination as to whether the unrealized loss is other-than-temporary, we considered the length of time and extent the investment has been in an unrealized loss position, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuers, the issuers’ credit rating and the time to maturity.
(6) Fair Value Measurements
We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is determined based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, as determined by either the principal market or the most advantageous market. Inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values are classified based on a three-level hierarchy, as follows:
• Level 1 : Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
76
Table of Contents
• Level 2 : Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
• Level 3 : Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.
We consider an active market to be one in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis, and consider an inactive market to be one in which there are infrequent or few transactions for the asset or liability, the prices are not current, or price quotations vary substantially either over time or among market makers.
The following table presents our financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis using the above input categories:

(10) Derivative and Hedging Activities
To mitigate our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations resulting from certain expenses denominated in certain foreign currencies, we enter into forward contracts that are designated as cash flow hedging instruments. These forward contracts have contractual maturities of eighteen months or less, and as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, outstanding forward contracts had a total notional value of $ 50.4 million and $ 49.5 million, respectively. The notional value represents the gross amount of foreign currency that will be bought or sold upon maturity of the forward contract. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, all cash flow hedges were considered effective. Refer to Note 6, Fair Value Measurements , for the fair values of our outstanding derivative instruments.
(11) Debt
Convertible Senior Notes
In May 2020, we issued $ 230.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due May 1, 2025 (the “2025 Notes”), in March 2021, we issued $ 600.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due March 15, 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and in September 2023, we issued $ 300.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due March 15, 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) (collectively, the “Notes”). In September 2023, we used $ 201.0 million of the proceeds from the issuance of the 2029 Notes to repurchase and retire $ 184.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes and paid accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Further details of the Notes are as follows:

The 2025 Notes, the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes are senior unsecured obligations, do not contain any financial covenants and are governed by indentures between the Company, as issuer, and U.S. Trust Company, Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Indentures”). The total net proceeds from the 2025 Notes, the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes offerings, after deducting initial purchase discounts and debt issuance costs, were $ 222.8 million, $ 585.0 million and $ 292.0 million, respectively.
As of December 31, 2024, the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes were not convertible at the option of the holders. The 2025 Notes became convertible at the option of the holders effective November 1, 2024.
The holders may convert the 2025 Notes, the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes at any time on or after November 1, 2024, December 15, 2026 and December 15, 2028, respectively, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, regardless of the circumstances set forth above. Upon conversion, we will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Indentures.
If we undergo a fundamental change (as set forth in the Indentures) at any time prior to the maturity date, holders of the Notes will have the right, at their option, to require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100 % of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date or following our issuance of a notice of redemption, in each case as described in the Indentures, we will increase the conversion rate for a holder of the Notes who elects to convert its Notes in connection with such a corporate event or during the related redemption period in certain circumstances.
Accounting for the Notes
In accounting for the issuance of the Notes, the principal less debt issuance costs are recorded as debt on our consolidated balance sheet. The debt issuance costs are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the contractual term of the Notes.
The net carrying amount of the Notes as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was as follows (in thousands):

Capped Calls
In connection with the offering of the 2025 Notes, the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain counterparties (the “2025 Capped Calls”, “2027 Capped Calls” and “2029 Capped Calls”) (collectively, the “Capped Calls”).
The Capped Calls are expected to reduce potential dilution to our common stock upon conversion of a given series of notes and/or offset any cash payments that we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted notes of such series, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The Capped Calls are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified extraordinary events affecting us, including merger events, tender offers and announcement events. In addition, the Capped Calls are subject to certain specified additional disruption events that may give rise to a termination of the Capped Calls, including nationalization, insolvency or delisting, changes in law, failures to deliver, insolvency filings and hedging disruptions.
The following table sets forth other key terms and premiums paid for the Capped Calls related to each series of Notes:

For accounting purposes, the 2025 Capped Calls, the 2027 Capped Calls and the 2029 Capped Calls are separate transactions, and not part of the terms of the 2025 Notes, the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes. The 2025 Capped Calls, 2027 Capped Calls and 2029 Capped Calls are recorded in stockholders' equity and are not accounted for as derivatives.
Credit Agreement
In April 2020, we entered into a Credit and Security Agreement, with KeyBank National Association that provided for a $ 30.0 million revolving credit facility, with a letter of credit sublimit of $ 15.0 million and an accordion feature under which we could increase the credit facility to up to $ 70.0 million. In May 2020, we utilized the accordion feature to increase the credit facility to $ 50.0 million.
In December 2021, we entered into an Amendment Agreement in respect of our Credit and Security Agreement (as amended, the "Credit Agreement"), with KeyBank National Association, to, among other things, increase the credit facility from $ 50.0 million to $ 100.0 million and extend the maturity date to December 22, 2024. The Credit Agreement provided for a $ 100.0 million revolving credit facility, with a letter of credit sublimit of $ 15.0 million, and an accordion feature under which we could increase the credit facility to up to $ 150.0 million. We incurred fees of
81
Table of Contents
$ 0.4 million in connection with entering into the Credit Agreement, which were recorded in other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet and amortized on a straight-line basis over the contractual term of the arrangement. The commitment fee of 0.2 % per annum on the unused portion of the credit facility is expensed as incurred and included within interest expense on the consolidated statement of operations. The Credit Agreement contained certain financial covenants including a requirement that we maintain specified minimum recurring revenue and liquidity amounts.
The borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) term SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10 % per annum plus a margin of 2.50 % per annum or (ii) the alternate base rate (subject to a floor), plus an applicable margin equal to 0 % per annum.
As noted above, the Credit Agreement matured on December 22, 2024.
(12) Leases
Our leases primarily relate to office facilities that have remaining terms of up to 7.3 years , some of which include one or more options to renew with renewal terms of up to 5 years and some of which include options to terminate the leases within 1 year . All of our leases are classified as operating leases.

Table of Contents
office space at our corporate headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts as well as idle office spaces located in Plano, Texas; Los Angeles, California; and Toronto, Canada may not be fully recoverable. As a result, we utilized discounted cash flow models to estimate the fair value of the asset groups taking into consideration the time period it will take to obtain sublessees, the applicable discount rate and the anticipated sublease income and calculated the corresponding impairment loss. We used prices and other relevant information generated by recent market transactions involving similar or comparable assets, as well as our historical experience in real estate transactions. In the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded impairment losses of $ 30.8 million, respectively, related to these idle office spaces, consisting of $ 22.2 million, related to ROU assets and $ 8.6 million related to leasehold improvements associated with these leased office spaces.
(13) Stock-Based Compensation
( a) General
In connection with our IPO, our board of directors resolved not to make future grants under our 2011 Stock Option and Grant Plan (the “2011 Plan”). The 2011 Plan will continue to govern outstanding awards granted thereunder. The 2011 Plan provided for the grant of qualified incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options or other awards such as restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) to our employees, officers, directors and outside consultants.
In July 2015, our board of directors adopted and our stockholders approved our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”). We initially reserved 800,000 shares of our common stock for the issuance of awards under the 2015 Plan plus the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2011 Plan at the time the 2015 Plan became effective. The 2015 Plan also provides that (i) any shares subject to awards granted under the 2011 Plan that would have otherwise returned to the 2011 Plan (such as upon the expiration or termination of a stock award prior to vesting) will be added to, and available for issuance under, the 2015 Plan and (ii) the number of shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2015 Plan automatically increases each January 1, beginning on January 1, 2016, by 4 % of the outstanding number of shares of our common stock on the immediately preceding December 31 (known as the “evergreen” provision) or such lesser number of shares as determined by our board of directors. Additionally, on October 8, 2015, our board of directors amended the 2015 Plan to reserve an additional 1,500,000 shares of our common stock for issuance of inducement awards.
As of December 31, 2024, the shares of common stock authorized to be issued under the 2015 Plan totaled 25,042,693 and there were 6,118,316 shares of common stock available for grant.
We recognize stock-based compensation expense for all awards on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting period, which is generally three to four years .
Stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”), stock options, purchase rights issued under our employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) and earnout consideration and key employee consideration shares related to acquisitions was classified in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as follows:

Our Compensation Committee adopted and approved the performance goals, targets and payout formulas for our 2024, 2023 and 2022 bonus plans, including permitting our executive officers and certain other employees the opportunity to receive payment of their earned bonuses in the form of common stock (in lieu of cash). For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, we recognized stock-based compensation expense related to such bonuses in the amount of $ 0.9 million, $ 1.6 million and $ 1.0 million, respectively, based on the probable expected performance against the pre-established corporate financial objectives as of December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022. For employees, including executive officers, who elect to receive their bonuses in the form of common stock (in lieu of cash), the payouts are expected to be made in the form of fully vested stock awards in the first quarter of the following year pursuant to our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended. The number of shares underlying such awards is determined by dividing the dollar value of the actual bonus award payment by the closing price per share of our common stock on the date of grant.

In January 2024, our Compensation Committee awarded 279,570 PSUs that required the achievement of net annualized recurring revenue (“Net ARR”) and Adjusted EBITDA targets for the 2024 full-year to earn any payout. Net ARR is defined as the change in the annual value of all recurring revenue related to contracts in place at year end. In addition, the portion of the PSUs that are earned would be capped at a maximum of 200 % of the target level payout and if certain net ARR or Adjusted EBITDA goals were not met, no PSUs will be earned. The PSUs have a performance period of one year and the earned PSUs will vest in three equal installments following each of the first, second and third anniversary of the vesting commencement date, subject to the participant’s continuous service as of each such date. The 2024 target level attainment was 50 % and in the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded $ 3.4 million of stock-based compensation expense related to these PSUs based on that level of attainment of the performance criteria.

In July 2024, our Compensation Committee awarded 19,605 PSUs that required the achievement of certain milestones related to the integration of Noetic. The PSUs have three measurement and vesting dates through September 15, 2025, subject to the participant's continuous service as of each such date. If the milestones are not achieved, no PSUs will be earned. In the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded $ 0.6 million of stock-based compensation expense related to these PSUs based on estimated achievement of the performance criteria.

(d) Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The number of shares reserved and available for issuance under our 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) automatically increases each January 1, beginning on January 1, 2016, by 1 % of the outstanding number of shares of our common stock on the immediately preceding December 31 (known as the “evergreen” provision) or such lesser number of shares as determined by our board of directors. As of December 31, 2024, the shares of common stock authorized to be issued under the ESPP totaled 5,370,139 and there were 3,076,461 shares of common stock available for grant.
Under the ESPP, employees may set aside up to 15 % of their gross earnings, on an after-tax basis, to purchase our common shares at a discounted price, which is calculated at 85 % of the lesser of: (i) the market value of our common stock at the beginning of each offering period and (ii) the market value of our common stock on the applicable purchase date.
The fair value of shares issued under our ESPP is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected term represents the term from the first day of the offering period to the purchase dates within each offering period. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatilities of our own common stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon securities with maturities consistent with the estimated expected term. We have not paid dividends on our common stock nor do we expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

As of December 31, 2024, we had federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards in the United States of $ 265.6 million and $ 306.0 million, respectively. Of these amounts, $ 251.5 million of federal and $ 47.8 million of state NOLs can be carried forward indefinitely. We had foreign NOL carryforwards of $ 215.5 million that can be carried

Table of Contents
forward indefinitely. We also had federal, state and foreign research and development credit carryforwards of $ 9.3 million, $ 4.1 million and $ 0.3 million as of December 31, 2024, respectively. The remaining NOLs and credits expire at various dates beginning in 2025.
As of December 31, 2024, our ability to utilize NOLs remains limited under IRC Sections 382 and 383 due to an ownership change we experienced in January 2018. We will not be precluded from realizing the NOL carryforwards and tax credits, but may be limited in the amount we could utilize in any given tax year in the event that the federal and state taxable income exceeds the limitation imposed by Section 382. The amount of the annual limitation is determined based on our value immediately prior to the ownership change. Subsequent ownership changes may further affect the limitation in future years.
Beginning January 1, 2022, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act eliminated the option to deduct research and development expenditures in the current year and requires taxpayers to capitalize such expenses pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 174. The capitalized expenses are amortized over a 5-year period for domestic expenses and a 15-year period for foreign expenses. We have included the impact of this provision, which results in additional deferred tax assets of approximately $ 91.0 million and $ 63.2 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
During the fourth quarter of 2024, we completed an analysis of our U.S. federal research and development tax credits. As a result, we recorded additional credits of $ 4.2 million , which have a full valuation allowance and are subject to the potential limitations discussed above.
Valuation Allowances
As of December 31, 2024, we have evaluated the need for a valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets. In making this determination, management considered whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company's valuation allowance decreased by $ 2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, due primarily to a decrease in operating losses, as well as a decrease of $ 1.7 million related to release of our valuation allowance related to our net deferred tax assets in Israel, offset by an increase related in capitalized research and development. The release of the valuation allowance in Israel was primarily the result of an internal restructuring, which changed the overall deferred tax position of the Israeli subsidiary.
Due to our history of generating losses, we continue to record a valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets in the United States and U.K and against the net operating loss carryforwards of our Ireland subsidiary. We may release additional valuation allowances in future periods if objective negative evidence of cumulative losses is no longer present and positive evidence, such as projection of future growth, supports the realization of such deferred tax assets. Release of all or a portion of these valuation allowances would result in a decrease in the provision for income taxes in the period of the release.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
We file income tax returns in all jurisdictions in which we operate. In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by federal, state, and foreign tax authorities, where applicable. The statute of limitations for these jurisdictions is generally three to seven years . However, to the extent we utilize net operating losses or other similar carryforward attributes such as credits, the statute remains open to the extent of the net operating losses or credits that are utilized. We are currently under tax examination in the state of Massachusetts for tax years 2023 through 2024 and in Israel for tax years 2018 through 2022.
The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of unrecognized tax benefits (excluding interest and penalties), in thousands:

Balance, December 31, 2024 $ 9,876
We have established reserves to provide for additional income taxes that management believes will more likely than not be due in future years. The reserves have been established based upon our assessment of the potential exposure. The change in our reserves during the year ended December 31, 2024 primarily relates to an intercompany sale of
88
Table of Contents
intellectual property as part of a post-acquisition integration strategy related to our acquisition of Minerva Labs Ltd. We recorded $ 0.4 million of interest in 2024 related to unrecognized tax benefits. During the next twelve months, the Company does not expect any change to its unrecognized tax benefits other than the accrual of interest in the normal course of business. We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the income tax line of the statement of operations.
From time to time, we may receive income tax assessments from taxing authorities asserting additional tax liabilities owed by the Company. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, we received an initial assessment from the Israel Tax Authority (“ITA”) of approximately 324 million Israeli New Shekels (approximately $ 88 million, based upon exchange rates as of December 31, 2024 between the Israeli New Shekel and the US Dollar) related to fiscal year 2021. Based on our interpretation of the regulations and available case law, we believe that the tax positions we have taken on our filed tax return in Israel are sustainable and we intend to defend our position through all available means. As such, we have not recorded any impact of the ITA assessment in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. We are continuing to monitor developments related to this matter and its impact on our existing income tax reserves for all open years. If we are unsuccessful in sustaining our tax position in this matter, our financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected.
Other Tax Matters
As of December 31, 2024, we have accumulated earnings generated by foreign subsidiaries. We have not recognized a deferred tax liability for the majority of these unremitted earnings as our intention is to indefinitely reinvest these accumulated earnings in our foreign subsidiaries. During the fourth quarter of 2024, we made the determination that the unremitted foreign earnings associated with our Israel legal entity are no longer indefinitely reinvested. We recorded a liability of $ 0.1 million related to the taxes expected to be imposed upon the repatriation of these unremitted foreign earnings that are not considered indefinitely reinvested.
The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Pillar Two Model Rules (“Pillar Two”) for the global 15% minimum tax have been adopted in a number of jurisdictions in which we operate. We are continuing to evaluate the potential impact on future periods of the Pillar Two framework, pending legislative adoption by additional individual countries.

We intend to settle any conversion of our 2025 Notes, 2027 Notes and 2029 Notes in cash, shares, or a combination thereof. The dilutive impact of the Notes for our calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share is considered using the if-converted method. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the shares underlying the Notes were not considered in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share as the effect would have been anti-dilutive.
In connection with the issuance of the 2025 Notes, the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes, we entered into the 2025 Capped Calls, 2027 Capped Calls and 2029 Capped Calls, which were not included for the purpose of calculating the number of diluted shares outstanding, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

(16) Commitments and Contingencies
(a) Purchase Obligations
As of December 31, 2024, we have non-cancellable firm purchase commitments primarily relating to cloud infrastructure services and software subscriptions.
The following table presents details of the future non-cancellable purchase commitments under these agreements as of December 31, 2024 (in thousands):
2025 $ 60,125

Total $ 100,062
In January 2025, we amended our contract with a cloud services provider which increased our total purchase obligation by $ 93.8 million in 2025, and $ 125.0 million in each of 2026, 2027, 2028 and 2029, respectively, for a total additional $ 593.8 million incremental to the amounts that are included in the table above. In addition, the amended contract includes an additional $ 35.0 million obligation over the five-year period.
(b) Warranty
We provide limited product warranties. Historically, any payments made under these provisions have been immaterial.
(c) Litigation and Claims
From time to time, we may be a party to litigation or subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we currently believe that the final outcome of these ordinary course matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
(d) Indemnification Obligations
We agree to standard indemnification provisions in the ordinary course of business. Pursuant to these provisions, we agree to indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, generally our customers, in connection with any United States patent, copyright or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third party arising from the use of our products or services in accordance with the agreement or arising from our gross negligence, willful misconduct or violation of the law (provided that there is not gross or willful misconduct on the part of the
90
Table of Contents
other party) with respect to our products or services. The term of these indemnification provisions is generally perpetual from the time of execution of the agreement. We carry insurance that covers certain third-party claims relating to our services and limits our exposure. We have never incurred costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification provisions.
As permitted under Delaware law, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and directors, indemnifying them for certain events or occurrences while they serve as officers or directors of the company.
(e) Income Taxes
From time to time, we may receive income tax assessments from taxing authorities asserting additional tax liabilities owed by the Company. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, we received an initial assessment from the Israel Tax Authority (“ITA”) of approximately 324 million Israeli New Shekels (approximately $ 88 million, based upon exchange rates as of December 31, 2024 between the Israeli New Shekel and the US Dollar) related to fiscal year 2021. Based on our interpretation of the regulations and available case law, we believe that the tax positions we have taken on our filed tax return in Israel are sustainable and we intend to defend our position through all available means. As such, we have not recorded any impact of the ITA assessment in our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. We are continuing to monitor developments related to this matter and its impact on our existing income tax reserves for all open years. If we are unsuccessful in sustaining our tax position in this matter, our financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected.
(17) Employee Benefit Plan
In December 2008, we established a discretionary 401(k) plan in which all full-time U.S. employees above the age 18 are eligible to participate after they have been employed for us for 90 days following the applicable date of hire. Matching contributions to the 401(k) plan can be made at our discretion. In 2024, 2023 and 2022, we made discretionary contributions of $ 3.5 million, $ 4.3 million and $ 4.3 million, respectively, to the plan.
(18) Segment Information and Information about Geographic Areas
We operate in a single reportable segment, providing product subscriptions and professional services to our customers. The segment’s accounting policies are consistent with those described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies . Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is our Chief Executive Officer. One of the measures of profit or loss that is used by our CODM to assess performance and allocate resources is consolidated net income, as reported in the consolidated statements of operations. Consolidated net income is used by our CODM in monitoring actual versus budgeted results as well as in benchmarking against our competitors, which are used in assessing performance of the segment.

(19) Restructuring
On August 7, 2023, our board of directors approved a restructuring plan that was designed to improve operational efficiencies, reduce operating costs and better align the Company’s workforce with current business needs, top strategic priorities and key growth opportunities (collectively, the “Restructuring Plan”). The Restructuring Plan included a reduction of the Company’s workforce by approximately 16 %.
In 2023, we incurred $ 22.2 million of restructuring charges which were recorded within restructuring in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In addition, we incurred $ 1.3 million of stock-based compensation expense related to acceleration of share-based awards. In 2023, we permanently closed certain idle office spaces in Plano, Texas; Los Angeles, California; and Toronto, Canada, which resulted in an impairment loss of $ 3.6 million. Refer to Note 12, Leases , for further details on the impairment of long-lived assets. As of December 31, 2023, the restructuring liability accrued but not paid totaled $ 3.8 million, which was included within accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Table of Contents
During the first quarter of 2024, the execution of the Restructuring Plan was completed and we recorded $( 0.2 ) million of restructuring charges within general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2024, the remaining payments were made, resulting in no remaining restructuring liability as of December 31, 2024.
(20) Immaterial Correction of an Error
During the fourth quarter of 2024, we identified an immaterial error related to stock-based compensation expense associated with certain RSUs and PSUs granted during fiscal years 2023 and 2024 attributable to an improper valuation of the underlying awards, resulting in an understatement of stock-based compensation expense in 2023 and 2024.
In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 99, Materiality , and SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements , the Company evaluated the errors and determined that the related impact was not material to results of operations or financial position for any historical annual or interim period. As a result, we are correcting the errors by adjusting prior period financial statements as of and for each of the quarterly and year-to-date periods shown below. Additionally, Note 13, Stock-Based Compensation, Note 14, Income Taxes and Note 15, Net Income (Loss) per Share, have been adjusted to reflect the correction of the immaterial errors.
The following table sets forth the effect of the immaterial error correction to certain line items of our consolidated statement of operations, consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of cash flows as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023:
