NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Background and Basis of Presentation

Company and Background

Chegg, Inc. ~~(Chegg, the Company,~~ (“we, ~~us,~~” “us,” “our,” “Company” or ~~our)~~“Chegg”), headquartered in Santa Clara, California, was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in July 2005. Millions of people all around the world Learn with Chegg. Our mission is to improve learning and learning outcomes by putting students first. We support life-long learners starting with their academic journey and extending into their careers. The Chegg platform provides products and services to support learners to help them better understand their academic course materials, and also provides personal and professional development skills training, to help them achieve their learning goals.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of Chegg, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, our results of operations, results of comprehensive income (loss) ~~income,~~, and stockholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021.~~2022. Our results of operations, results of comprehensive income (loss) ~~income,~~, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, ~~2022~~2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

We have a single operating and reportable segment and operating unit structure. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 (the Annual Report on Form 10-K) filed with the SEC.

~~There~~Except for our policies on strategic investments, there have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Strategic Investments

Investments in partnerships where we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Equity method investments are initially recorded at cost and adjusted for our share of the investees' earnings or losses, based on our percentage ownership, recognized on a one-quarter lag basis within other income, net on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Investments in entities where we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence and which do not have readily determinable fair values are accounted for at cost, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, if any.

Strategic investments are included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We assess our strategic investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may be impaired. The factors we consider in our evaluation include, but are not limited to, a significant deterioration in the earnings performance or business prospects of the investee or factors that raise significant concerns about the investee’s ability to continue as a going concern, such as negative cash flows from operations or working capital deficiencies.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities; the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience, knowledge of current business conditions, and various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge about current events and

Table of Contents

expectations about actions we may undertake in the future. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material to our financial position and results of operations. There have been no material changes in our use of estimates during the six months ended June 30, ~~2022~~2023 as compared to the use of estimates disclosed in Part II, Item 8 “Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

In order to conform with current period presentation, $0.3 million of ~~Contents~~deferred tax assets during the six months ended June 30, 2022 has been reclassified from other non-cash items on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. This change in presentation does not affect previously reported results.

Leases

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we extended our existing lease agreement related to our corporate headquarters in Santa Clara and reassessed lease terms related to office spaces internationally in India, resulting in the recording of $12.4 million of right of use assets in exchange for lease liabilities.

~~Impairment of Lease Related Assets~~

Right of use (ROU) assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we announced the closure of our San Francisco office and determined that the carrying amount of the ROU asset was not recoverable. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $3.4 million, consisting of a $2.0 million impairment of a ROU asset and $1.4 million write-off of leasehold improvements, included in general and administrative expense on our condensed consolidated statement of operations. Our intent and ability to sublease the office as well as the local market conditions were factored in when measuring the amount of impairment.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

There were no accounting pronouncements issued during the six months ended June 30, ~~2022~~2023 that would have ana material impact on our financial statements.

~~Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements~~

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2021-08, Business Combinations-Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (Topic 805). The new guidance requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606 as if the acquirer had originated the contracts. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. We early adopted ASU 2021-08 on January 1, 2022 and applied it to our acquisition of Busuu. The most significant impacts were an increase in contract liabilities, contained within deferred revenue, and goodwill.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. ASU 2021-04 aims to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options that remain equity classified after modification or exchange based on the economic substance of the modification or exchange. Early adoption is permitted and the guidance must be applied prospectively to all modifications or exchanges that occur on or after the date of adoption. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. We adopted ASU 2021-04 on January 1, 2022 under the prospective method of adoption and there was no impact to our results of operations as we did not modify or exchange any freestanding equity-classified written call options.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

We did not adopt any accounting pronouncements during the six months ended June 30, 2023 that had a material impact on our financial statements.

Note 2. Revenues

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when control of the ~~promised~~ goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The majority of our revenues are recognized over time, ~~as services are performed,~~ with certain revenues being recognized at a point in time.

We have changed our revenue disaggregation to Subscription Services and Skills and Other to better reflect the nature and timing of revenue and cash flows. Subscription Services includes revenues from our Chegg Study Pack, Chegg Study, Chegg Writing, Chegg Math, and Busuu offerings. Skills and Other includes revenues from our Skills, advertising services, print textbooks and eTextbooks offerings. We no longer present our Required Materials product line separately as we no longer recognize significant revenue from our print textbook and eTextbooks offerings.

The following tables set forth our total net revenues for the periods shown disaggregated for our ~~Chegg~~Subscription Services and ~~Required Materials~~Skills and Other product lines (in thousands, except percentages):

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recognized $10.0 million and $20.7 million, respectively, of operating lease income from print textbook rentals that we owned.

As of June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we determined that the ~~declines in the market value of~~unrealized losses on our ~~investment portfolio~~investments were not driven by credit related factors. During the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021~~2022, we did not recognize any losses on our investments due to credit related factors. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ our ~~gross~~ realized gains and losses on investments were not significant.

Strategic Investments

In May 2023, we entered into a $15.0 million commitment to invest in Sound Ventures AI Fund, L.P. (Sound Ventures), a limited partnership that invests in artificial intelligence companies, for an approximate 6% ownership. We accounted for our investment under the equity method of accounting. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we funded $9.6 million of our investment commitment. As part of the conditions for entering into the investment, we are contractually required to provide additional investment commitments. As of June 30, 2023, we have unfunded investment commitments of $5.4 million, which can be issued at any time within five years of the commencement of the partnership, which occurred in February 2023.

In July 2022, we completed an investment of $6.0 million in Knack Technologies, Inc. (Knack), a privately held U.S. based peer-to-peer tutoring platform for higher education institutions. We do not have the ability to exercise significant influence over Knack's operating and financial policies and have elected to account for our investment at cost as it does not have a readily determinable fair value. We did not record any impairment charges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as there were no significant identified events or changes in circumstances that would be considered an indicator for impairment. There were no observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investments of the same issuer during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

We report our financial instruments at fair value with the exception of the notes. The estimated fair value of the notes was determined based on the trading price of the notes as of the last day of trading for the period. We consider the fair value of the notes to be a Level 2 measurement due to the limited trading activity. The estimated fair value of the 2026 notes as of June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 was ~~$725.0~~$312.7 million and ~~$840.0~~$385.0 million, respectively. The estimated fair value of the 2025 notes as of June 30, ~~2022~~2023 and December 31, ~~2021~~2022 was ~~$588.3~~$318.5 million and ~~$682.2~~$640.5 million, respectively. For further information on the notes, refer to Note 8,5, “Convertible Senior Notes.”

~~Note 5. Acquisition~~

On January 13, 2022, we completed our acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Busuu Online S.L (Busuu) in cash, an online language learning company that offers a comprehensive solution through a combination of self-paced lessons, live classes with expert tutors and the ability to learn and practice with members of the Busuu language learning community. The acquisition helps to expand our existing offerings and global reach through language learning, allowing us to drive further into international markets.

~~The following table presents the preliminary allocation of purchase consideration recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the acquisition date (in thousands):~~


	~~Busuu~~
~~Cash and cash equivalents~~	$	~~20,525~~
~~Accounts receivable~~	~~2,446~~
~~Right of use assets~~	~~2,715~~
~~Other acquired assets~~	~~3,710~~
~~Acquired intangible assets~~	~~71,600~~
~~Total identifiable assets acquired~~	~~100,996~~
~~Accounts payable~~	~~(5,174)~~
~~Accrued liabilities(1)~~	~~(21,964)~~
~~Deferred revenue~~	~~(16,761)~~
~~Long term operating lease liabilities~~	~~(2,038)~~
~~Other long-term liabilities(1)~~	~~(1,646)~~
~~Net identifiable assets acquired~~	~~53,413~~
~~Goodwill~~	~~368,237~~
~~Total fair value of purchase consideration~~	$	~~421,650~~

~~(1)~~During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a $0.8 million decrease to accrued liabilities and a $1.7 million increase to other long-term liabilities as a result of measurement period adjustments to the fair value of the initial liabilities related to taxes.

The estimates and assumptions regarding the fair value of certain tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the valuation of intangible assets acquired, income taxes, and goodwill are subject to change as we obtain additional information during the measurement period, which usually lasts for up to one year from the acquisition date.

~~Table of Contents~~

Goodwill is primarily attributable to the potential for expanding our offerings to include an online language learning platform and global reach allowing us to drive further into international markets. Substantially all of the amounts recorded for intangible assets and goodwill are deductible for tax purposes.

~~The following table presents the details of the allocation of purchase consideration to the acquired intangible assets (in thousands, except weighted-average amortization period):~~

Busuu
Amount Weighted-Average Amortization Period (in months)
Trade name $ 4,600 72
Customer lists 18,000 24
Developed technology 49,000 84
Total acquired intangible assets $ 71,600 68

During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, we incurred acquisition-related expenses of $0.6 million and $5.3 million, respectively, associated with our acquisition of Busuu, which have been included in general and administrative expense on our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The purchase consideration was paid in Euros, which is different from our functional currency of United States Dollars. We initially funded an equivalent of $417.0 million that was remeasured at $421.7 million at closing, which is included in our statement of cash flows as a cash outflow from investing activities net of cash acquired, resulting in a $4.6 million gain included in other income (expense), net on our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The Busuu purchase agreement provides for additional payments of up to approximately $25.5 million, subject to the continued employment of certain key employees. These payments are not included in the fair value of the purchase consideration but rather are expensed ratably as acquisition-related compensation costs and classified based on the seller's job function, on our condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of June 30, 2022, we have recorded approximately $3.6 million within accrued liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets for these payments.

Since the acquisition date, we have recorded revenues and net loss from Busuu of $19.7 million and $19.5 million, respectively. These results should not be taken as representative of future results of operations of the combined company. The following unaudited supplemental pro forma revenues and earnings is for informational purposes only and presents our combined results as if the acquisition of Busuu had occurred on January 1, 2021. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, our unaudited supplemental pro forma revenues from Busuu would have been $194.8 million and $397.7 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, our unaudited supplemental pro forma revenues from Busuu would have been $208.7 million and $417.3 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, our unaudited supplemental pro forma earnings would have been a net income of $8.2 million and $13.6 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, our unaudited supplemental pro forma earnings would have been a net income of $22.4 million and net loss of $51.7 million, respectively. The unaudited supplemental pro forma earnings information includes the historical combined operating results adjusted for acquisition-related compensation costs, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense and acquisition-related expenses and does not necessarily reflect the actual results that would have been achieved, nor is it necessarily indicative of our future consolidated results.

~~Note 7. Required Materials Transition~~

In April 2022, we entered into definitive agreements regarding the sale of our print textbook library and partnership with GT Marketplace, LLC (GT) for our Required Materials product line. We will continue to offer our Required Materials offering on our website and maintain relationships with the students, however, GT has purchased our existing print textbook library for $14 million, subject to payment terms and certain adjustments, and will continue to make print textbook investments and provide fulfillment logistics for print textbook transactions. We expect that we will continue to fulfill eTextbook transactions through the end of 2022, at which point GT will fulfill eTextbook transactions.

Upon board of directors approval in April 2022, our net textbook library and unrecognized deferred revenue related to print textbook transactions met the criteria to be classified as a held for sale asset group which had a carrying amount of $7.7 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we subsequently sold the held for sale asset group to GT at a gain of $4.4 million, subject to certain adjustments, included in cost of revenues on our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Subsequent to April 2022, we no longer recognize operating lease income from print textbooks that we own ratable on a gross basis. In relation to print textbooks owned by GT, we recognize revenues immediately on a net basis, representing the margin earned, based on our role in the transaction as an agent as we have concluded that we do not control the use of the print textbooks, and therefore record only the net revenue share we earn.

Note 8.5. Convertible Senior Notes

In August 2020, we issued $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due in 2026 (2026 notes). The aggregate principal amount of the 2026 notes includes $100 million from the initial purchasers fully exercising their option to purchase additional notes. In March 2019, we issued $700 million in aggregate principal amount of 0.125% convertible senior notes due in 2025 (2025 notes, together with the 2026 notes, the notes) and in April 2019, the initial purchasers fully exercised their option to purchase $100 million of additional 2025 notes for aggregate total principal amount of $800 million. The notes were issued in private placements to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The total net proceeds from the notes are as follows (in thousands):


	2026 Notes		2025 Notes
Principal amount	$	1,000,000	$	800,000
Less initial purchasers’ discount	(15,000)		(18,998)
Less other issuance costs	(904)		(822)
Net proceeds	$	984,096	$	780,180

Table of Contents

The notes are our senior, unsecured obligations and are governed by indenture agreements by and between us and Computershare Trust Company, National Association (as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association), as Trustee (the indentures). The 2026 notes bear no interest and will mature on September 1, 2026, unless repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. The 2025 notes bear interest of 0.125% per year which is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2019. The 2025 notes will mature on March 15, 2025, unless repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date.

Each $1,000 principal amount of the 2026 notes will initially be convertible into 9.2978 shares of our common stock. This is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $107.55 per share, which is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Each $1,000 principal amount of the 2025 notes will initially be convertible into 19.3956 shares of our common stock. This is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $51.56 per share, which is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.

Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding June 1, 2026 for the 2026 notes and December 15, 2024 for the 2025 notes, the notes are convertible at the option of holders only upon satisfaction of the following circumstances:

•during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2020 for the 2026 notes and June 30, 2019 for the 2025 notes, if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the respective conversion price for the notes on each applicable trading day;

•during the ~~5-business~~five-business day period after any 10 consecutive trading day period (the measurement period) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day;

•if we call any or all of the notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or

•upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate events described in the indentures.

On or after June 1, 2026 for the 2026 notes and December 15, 2024 for the 2025 notes until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the respective maturity dates, holders may convert their notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, the notes may be settled in shares of our common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election.

If we undergo a fundamental change, as defined in the indentures, prior to the respective maturity dates, subject to certain conditions, holders of the notes may 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, if specific corporate events, described in the indentures, occur prior to the respective maturity dates, we will also increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert their notes in connection with such specified corporate events.

In May 2023, in connection with our securities repurchase program, we extinguished $85.8 million and $341.1 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 notes and 2025 notes, respectively, in privately-negotiated transactions for a total consideration of $368.6 million, which was paid to the holders in cash. We also incurred approximately $1.2 million in fees resulting in a total reacquisition price of $369.8 million. The carrying amount of the extinguished notes was $423.5 million resulting in a $53.8 million gain on early extinguishment of debt. We elected to reacquire and not cancel the extinguished 2026 notesand the 2025 notes were canceled with the trustee. Additionally, we terminated 2025 notes capped call transactions underlying 6,615,161 shares of our common stock and received aggregate cash proceeds of $0.3 million. As of June 30, 2023, we had 9,297,800 and 6,961,352 shares remaining underlying the 2026 notes and 2025 notes, respectively.

During the three months ended June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, the conditions allowing holders of the 2026 notes and 2025 notes to convert were not met and therefore the 2026 notes and 2025 notes are not convertible the following quarter. ~~During the year ended December 31, 2021, we issued 2,983,011 shares of our common stock related to the redemption of our 2023 notes.~~

Capped Call Transactions

Concurrently with the offering of the 2026 notes and 2025 notes, we used $103.4 million and $97.2 million, respectively, of the net proceeds to enter into privately negotiated capped call transactions which are expected to reduce or offset potential dilution to holders of our common stock upon conversion of the notes or offset the potential cash payments we would be required to make in excess of the principal amount of any converted notes. The capped call transactions automatically exercise upon conversion of the notes and as of June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, cover 9,297,800 and ~~13,576,513~~6,961,352 shares of our common stock for the 2026 notes and 2025 notes, respectively. These are intended to effectively increase the overall conversion price from $107.55 to $156.44 per share for the 2026 notes and $51.56 to $79.32 per share for the 2025 notes. The effective increase in conversion price as a result of the capped call transactions serves to reduce potential dilution to holders of our common stock and/or offset the cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of any converted notes. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, they are recorded in stockholders’ equity as a reduction of additional paid-in capital on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are not accounted for as derivatives. The fair value of the capped call instrument is not remeasured each reporting period. The cost of the capped call is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

~~On May 12, 2020,~~Aside from the loss contingency accrual recorded related to the Frank matter, we received notice that 15,107 arbitration demands were filed against us on April 30, 2020 by individuals all represented by the same legal counsel. Each individual claimant claimed to have suffered more than $25 thousand in damages as a result of the unauthorized access of certain items of their user data in April 2018. On July 1, 2020, an additional 1,007 arbitration demands were filed by the same counsel, making identical allegations. On August 12, 2020, an additional 577 arbitration demands were filed by the same counsel, making identical allegations. Related cases were filed by the same counsel in Maryland and California. We disputed that these claimants had a valid basis for seeking arbitration, asserted that they have acted in bad faith and have been working with the Maryland and California courts and plaintiffs’ counsel on resolution of these claims. The Maryland case is now closed. On August 22, 2021, Chegg and the claimants' legal counsel, on behalf of its clients, entered into a settlement agreement, pursuant to which each eligible claimant that signs a release agreement agrees, among other things, to dismiss with prejudice all claims against Chegg that such claimant currently maintains in exchange for such claimant's pro rata portion of the settlement amount. Claimants had until January 26, 2022 to sign their release agreements. As a result of the settlement, all but 4 petitions to compel arbitration in the California action were dismissed with prejudice.

We have not recorded any additional loss contingency accruals related to the above matters as we do not believe that a loss is probable in these matters. We are not aware of any other pending legal matters or claims, individually or in the aggregate, that are expected to have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, our analysis of whether a claim will proceed to litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, nor can the results of litigation be predicted with certainty. Nevertheless, defending any of these actions, regardless of the outcome, may be costly, time consuming, distract management personnel and have a negative effect on our business. An adverse outcome in any of these actions, including a judgment or settlement, may cause a material adverse effect on our future business, operating results and/or financial condition.

Note ~~10.~~7. Guarantees and Indemnifications

We have agreed to indemnify our directors and officers for certain events or occurrences, subject to certain limits, while such persons are or were serving at our request in such capacity. We may terminate the indemnification agreements with these persons upon termination of employment, but termination will not affect claims for indemnification related to events occurring prior to the effective date of termination. We have a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy that limits our potential exposure up to the limits of our insurance coverage. In addition, we also have other indemnification agreements with various vendors against certain claims, liabilities, losses, and damages. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited.

We believe the fair value of these indemnification agreements is immaterial. We have not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of June 30, ~~2022.~~2023.

Note 8. Common Stock

We are authorized to issue 400 million shares of our common stock, with a par value per share of $0.001. As of June 30, 2023, we have reserved the following shares of our common stock for future issuance:

2023 Equity Incentive Plan

On April 7, 2023, our Board of Directors adopted our 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 EIP”), which was subsequently approved by our stockholders and became effective on June 7, 2023, replacing our 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”). On the effective date of the 2023 EIP, 12,000,000 shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance under the 2023 EIP. On June 6, 2023, the date on which the 2013 Plan expired, all remaining shares available for grant under the 2013 Plan were cancelled, and we will not make any additional grants under the 2013 Plan. In addition, any shares subject to awards, including shares subject to awards granted under the 2013 Plan that were outstanding on June 7, 2023, that are cancelled, forfeited, repurchased, expire by their terms without shares being issued, are used to pay the exercise price of an option or stock appreciation right or withheld to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to any award, will be returned to the pool of shares available for grant and issuance under the 2023 Plan. As of June 30, 2023, there were 12,070,617 shares available for grant under the 2023 EIP. The 2023 EIP permits the granting of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, RSUs, restricted stock awards, stock bonus awards, stock appreciation rights and performance awards. The 2023 EIP terminates on April 7, 2033.

Amended and Restated 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On April 7, 2023, our Board of Directors adopted our Amended and Restated 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “A&R ESPP”), which was subsequently approved by our stockholders and became effective on June 7, 2023. The A&R ESPP permits eligible employees to purchase shares of our common stock by accumulating funds through periodic payroll deductions.

Table of Contents

The A&R ESPP is intended to qualify as an "employee stock purchase plan" under Section 423 of the Code. Under the A&R ESPP, eligible employees will be granted an option to purchase shares of our common stock at a 15% discount to the lesser of the fair market value of our common stock on (i) the first trading day of the applicable offering period or (ii) the last day of each purchase period in the applicable offering period. The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors shall determine the duration and commencement date of each offering period, provided that an offering period shall in no event be longer than twenty-seven (27) months, except as otherwise provided by an applicable sub-plan. Upon approval of the A&R ESPP, the available share pool under our existing 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan was reduced, and we have reserved 4,000,000 shares of our common stock under the A&R ESPP. As of June 30, 2023, there were 4,000,000 shares of common stock available for future issuance under the A&R ESPP.

Note ~~11.~~9. Stockholders' Equity

Share Repurchases

In June 2023, we repurchased 3,433,157 shares of our common stock in open market transactions for $34.5 million.

In February 2023, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase (ASR) agreement with a financial institution (2023 ASR). We accounted for the 2023 ASR as two separate transactions, a repurchase of our common stock and an equity-linked contract indexed to our common stock that met certain accounting criteria for classification in stockholders' equity. Upon execution, we paid a fixed amount of $150.0 million and received an initial delivery of 7,599,747 shares of our common stock, which were retired immediately. The initial delivery of shares of our common stock represented approximately 80 percent of the fixed amount paid of $150.0 million, which was based on the share price of our common stock on the date of execution. The 2023 ASR, along with $1.9 million in associated costs, primarily consisting of an estimated 1% excise tax, were recorded as a reduction to additional paid in capital on our condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. The 2023 ASR settled during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and we received an additional delivery of 1,974,762 shares of our common stock, which were retired immediately. The 2023 ASR resulted in a total repurchase of 9,574,509 shares of our common stock at a volume-weighted-average price, less an agreed upon discount, of $15.67 per share. We were not required to make any additional cash payments or delivery of common stock to the financial institution upon settlement.

In February 2022 and December 2021, we entered into ASR agreements with financial institutions. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we received a total of 11,562,475 shares of our common stock from these ASR agreements, which were retired immediately. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2022, we repurchased 1,146,803 shares of our common stock in open market transactions.

Securities Repurchase Program

As of June 30, 2023, we had $89.4 million remaining under the securities repurchase program, which has no expiration date and will continue until otherwise suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason by our board of directors.

~~Accelerated Share Repurchases~~

Table of Contents

On February 22, 2022, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase (ASR) agreement with a financial institution (2022 ASR). We accounted for the 2022 ASR as 2 separate transactions, a repurchase of our common stock and an equity-linked contract indexed to our common stock that met certain accounting criteria for classification in stockholders' equity. Upon execution, we paid a fixed amount of $300.0 million and received an initial delivery of 8,562,255 shares of our common stock over the following 3 business days, which were retired immediately. The initial delivery of shares of our common stock represented approximately 80 percent of the fixed amount paid of $300.0 million, which was based on the share price of our common stock on the date of execution. The 2022 ASR was recorded as a reduction to additional paid in capital on our condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. The 2022 ASR settled during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and we received an additional delivery of 837,001 shares of our common stock, which were retired immediately. The 2022 ASR resulted in a total repurchase of 9,399,256 shares of our common stock at a volume-weighted-average price, less an agreed upon discount, $31.9174 per share. We were not required to make any additional cash payments or delivery of common stock to the financial institutions upon settlement.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements (unaudited)” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition to historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. See the section titled “Note about Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Millions of people all around the world Learn with Chegg. Our mission is to improve learning and learning outcomes by putting students first. We support life-long learners starting with their academic journey and extending into their careers. The Chegg platform provides products and services to support learners to help them better understand their academic course materials, and also provides personal and professional development skills training, to help them achieve their learning goals.

~~Students subscribe~~Our long-term strategy is centered upon our ability to utilize Subscription Services to increase student engagement with our learning platform. We continue to invest in the expansion of our offerings and technology platform to provide a more compelling and personalized solution and deepen engagement with students. More recently, we have rapidly realigned our resources around our artificial intelligence efforts, including developing the large language models required for our students to have a fully generative, conversational experience. In addition, we believe these investments will allow us to sustain profitability and remain cash-flow positive in the long-term. Our ability to achieve these long-term objectives is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties including our ability to attract, retain, and increasingly engage the student population, reduced traffic to our ~~subscription~~ services, ~~collectively referred~~and other factors, such as the rapidly changing development of artificial intelligence technologies and global macroeconomic conditions, which continue to asevolve and affect our business and results of operations. Student interest in and usage of artificial intelligence technologies have increased, which we believe has and may continue to negatively impact the number of subscriber acquisitions. As a result, we are experiencing an adverse effect on our operating results, growth and financial condition, which may continue. These risks and uncertainties are described in greater detail in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we generated net revenues of $182.9 million and $370.5 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we generated net revenues of $194.7 million and $397.0 million, respectively.

We have changed our revenue disaggregation to Subscription Services and Skills and Other to better reflect the nature and timing of revenue and cash flows. Subscription Services includes revenues from our Chegg Study Pack, Chegg Study, Chegg Writing, Chegg Math, and Busuu offerings. Skills and Other includes revenues from our Skills, advertising services, print textbooks and eTextbooks offerings. We no longer present our Required Materials product line separately as we no longer expect to have significant revenue from our print textbook and eTextbooks offerings.

We have presented revenues for our two product lines, Subscription Services ~~which~~and Skills and Other, based on how students view us and the utilization of our products by them. More detail on our two product lines is discussed in the next two sections titled “Subscription Services” and “Skills and Other.”

Subscription Services

Our Subscription Services can be accessed internationally through our websites and on mobile ~~devices. Our primary~~devices and include Chegg ~~Services include~~Study Pack, Chegg Study, Chegg Writing, Chegg Math, ~~Solver, Chegg Study Pack,~~and Busuu ~~Mathway~~ and ~~Thinkful.~~students typically pay to access our Subscription Services on a monthly basis. Revenues from our Subscription Services are primarily recognized ratably over the monthly subscription period whereas the number of subscribers are determined as those who have paid to access our services at any time during the period. Changes in revenues are primarily related to changes in subscribers however they may not necessarily coincide as a result of timing. Our Chegg Study subscription service provides “Expert Questions and Answers” and step-by-step “Textbook Solutions,” helping students with their course work. When students need writing help, including plagiarism detection scans and creating citations for their papers, they can use our Chegg Writing subscription service. Our Chegg Math ~~Solver and~~subscription service, including Mathway, ~~subscription services help~~helps students understand math by providing a step-by-step math solver and calculator. We also offer our Chegg Study Pack as a premium subscription bundle of our Chegg Study, Chegg Writing, and Chegg Math ~~Solver~~ services, which also includes additional features such as flashcards, concept videos, ~~and~~ practice questions and ~~quizzes.~~quizzes,

and instructor-created materials through Uversity. Our Thinkful skills-based learning platform offers professional courses focused on the most in-demand technology skills. Required Materials includes our print textbook and eTextbook offerings, which help students save money compared to the cost of buying new. We offer an extensive print textbook library primarily for rent and also for sale through our print textbook partners.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we generated net revenues of $194.7 million and $397.0 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we generated net revenues of $198.5 million and $396.9 million, respectively.

In April 2022, we entered into definitive agreements with GT such that we will continue to offer our Required Materials offering on our website and maintain relationships with the students, however, GT has purchased our existing print textbook library and will continue to make print textbook investments and provide fulfillment logistics for print textbook transactions. We expect that we will continue to fulfill eTextbook transactions through the end of 2022, at which point GT will fulfill eTextbook transactions. We expect that our partnership with GT provides an opportunity to grow faster with higher margins. As a result of the partnership with GT, revenues from print textbook transactions will consist of a revenue share of the total transactions recognized immediately rather than the total amounts recognized ratably over the rental term, generally a two- to five-month period. Revenues from eTextbook transactions will continue to be recognized at the gross amount ratably over the customer's contractual period, generally a two- to five-month period, through the expected transition period, at which point they will be recognized as a revenue share immediately. After the transition to GT, we will no longer incur significant costs of revenue such as order fulfillment fees primarily related to shipping and fulfillment, publisher content fees for eTextbooks after transition to GT at the end of 2022, and print textbook depreciation and write off expense. We will continue to incur costs of revenue such as payment processing fees and employee related costs as well as ongoing operating expenses such as platform infrastructure maintenance and transition costs.

~~In January 2022, we completed our acquisition of~~ Busuu ~~Online S.L. (Busuu), an online~~ language learning ~~company that~~platform offers a comprehensive solution through a combination of self-paced lessons, live classes with expert tutors and the ability to learn and practice with members of the Busuu language learning community.

Our long-term strategy is centered upon our ability to utilize Chegg Services to increase student engagement with our learning platform. We plan to continue to invest in the expansion of our Chegg Services to provide a more compelling and personalized solution and deepen engagement with students. In addition, we believe that the investments we have made to achieve our current scale will allow us to drive increased operating margins over time that, together with increased contributions of Chegg Services, will enable us to sustain profitability and remain cash-flow positive in the long-term. Our

~~Table of Contents~~

ability to achieve these long-term objectives is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including our ability to attract, retain, and increasingly engage the student population, reduced traffic to our services, intense competition in our markets, the ability to achieve sufficient contributions to revenue from Chegg Services, and other factors, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which continues to evolve and affect our business and results of operations. Further, the education industry is experiencing a slowdown as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and macroeconomic conditions, such as inflation, which has resulted in a decline in traffic to education technology services, such as the ones we provide. A combination of increased employment opportunities and compensation has led to significantly fewer enrollments than expected. In addition, those students who have enrolled have been taking fewer and less rigorous classes and receiving less graded assignments. As a result, we are experiencing a deceleration in the growth rates of our services and revenues that may continue. These risks and uncertainties are described in greater detail in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

We have presented revenues for our two product lines, Chegg Services and Required Materials, based on how students view us and the utilization of our products by them. More detail on our two product lines is discussed in the next two sections titled “Chegg Services” and “Required Materials.”

~~Chegg Services~~

Our Chegg Services product line for students primarily includes Chegg Study, Chegg Writing, Chegg Math Solver, Chegg Study Pack, Busuu, Mathway, and Thinkful. Students typically pay to access Chegg Services on a monthly basis. We also work with leading brands to provide students with discounts, promotions, and other products that, based on student feedback, delight them.

In the aggregate, ~~Chegg~~Subscription Services revenues were ~~97%~~91% and ~~94%~~90% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to 90% and 88% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, ~~, respectively, and 87% and 85% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,~~ respectively.

~~Required Materials~~Skills and Other

Our ~~Required Materials~~Skills and Other product line includes revenues from Skills, advertising services, print textbooks and eTextbooks. ~~Subsequent~~Our skills-based learning platform offers professional courses focused on the most in-demand technology skills.

Additionally, Required Materials includes revenues from~~ eTextbooks, which ~~are primarily recognized ratably over~~helps students save money compared to the ~~customer's contractual period, generally a two- to five-month period.~~cost of buying new.

In the aggregate, ~~Required Materials~~Skills and Other revenues were 3%9% and 6%10% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, respectively, compared to 10% and ~~13% and 15%~~12% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2021,~~2022, respectively.

Seasonality of Our Business

Revenues from ~~Chegg~~Subscription Services ~~and eTextbooks~~ are primarily recognized ratably over the subscription term ~~a student subscribes to our Chegg Services or has access to an eTextbook. This~~which has generally resulted in our highest revenues and profitability in the fourth quarter as it reflects more days of the academic year. Certain variable expenses, such as marketing expenses, remain highest in the first and third quarters such that our profitability may not provide meaningful insight on a sequential basis. As a result of these factors, the most concentrated periods for our revenues and expenses do not necessarily coincide, and comparisons of our historical quarterly results of operations on a sequential basis may not provide meaningful insight into our overall financial performance.

Skills and Other revenues decreased $2.3 million, or 12%, and $12.3 million, or 25%, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower revenues from print textbooks and ~~87%~~eTextbooks as a result of recognizing revenue on a net basis from our partnership with GT Marketplace, LLC that began in April 2022 of $4.9 million and ~~85%~~$19.2 million, respectively. Skills and Other revenues were 9% and 10% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, ~~2021, respectively. Required Materials revenues decreased $19.3 million, or 77% and $37.9 million or 62%, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022~~2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to lower revenues from print textbooks as we no longer own print textbooks as a result of our partnership with GT beginning in April 2022, lower unit volumes driven by decreased college enrollments,10% and ~~various print textbook logistic challenges prior to the partnership with GT during the first quarter of 2022. Required Materials revenues were 3% and 6%~~12% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, ~~respectively, and 13% and 15% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,~~ respectively.

As a result of our partnership with GT, we expect Required Material revenues to continue to decrease throughout 2022 due to recognizing a revenue share of the total transaction amount rather than the total transaction amount.

Decreases related to print textbooks, including order fulfillment fees, net change in the gain on textbook library, print textbook depreciation expense and cost of textbooks purchased by students, were primarily attributable to our partnership with GT. We expect cost of revenues to continue to decrease throughout 2022 and margins to improve over time as we continue the partnership.

We continue to maintain a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets and quarterly assess the need for such valuation allowance. Given our current and anticipated future earnings, we believe that there is a reasonable possibility that within the next 24 months, sufficient positive evidence may become available that results in a conclusion that all or a portion of the valuation allowance will be released, which would result in the recognition of net deferred tax assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and a benefit to provision for income taxes in the period the release is recorded. The timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are based on obtaining sufficient positive evidence, including but not limited to, the level of forecasted profitability in future periods.India.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, our principal sources of liquidity were cash, cash equivalents, and investments totaling ~~$1.6 billion,~~$807.8 million, which were held for working capital purposes. The substantial majority of our net revenues are from e-commerce transactions with students, which are settled immediately through payment processors, as opposed to our accounts payable, which are settled based on contractual payment terms with our suppliers.

In June 2022, our board of directors approved a $1.0 billion increase to our existing securities repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $2.0 billion of our common stock and/or convertible notes, through open market purchases, block trades, and/or privately negotiated transactions or pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans, in compliance with applicable securities laws and other legal requirements. The timing, volume, and nature of the repurchases will be determined by management based on the capital needs of the business, market conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other factors. ~~During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, we~~We have entered into accelerated share repurchase programs ~~to repurchase a total of $600.0~~with financial institutions for $750.0 million, ~~of our outstanding common stock. Additionally,~~repurchased shares in ~~2021 we repurchased $57.4~~open market transactions for $57.6 million and ~~$100.0 million of aggregate principal amount of the 2023~~repurchased our convertible senior notes ~~and 2025 notes, respectively,~~ in ~~privately negotiated~~privately-negotiated transactions for an aggregate consideration of ~~$149.6~~$1,103.0 million. As of June 30, 2023, we had $89.4 million ~~and $184.9 million, respectively. $1.1 billion remains~~remaining under the securities repurchase program, which has no expiration date and will continue until otherwise suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason by our board of directors.

~~Table of Contents~~

In February 2021, we completed an equity offering in which we raised net proceeds of $1,091.5 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses (2021 equity offering). In August 2020 and March/April 2019, we closed offerings of our 2026 notes and 2025 notes, generating net proceeds of approximately $984.1 million and $780.2 million, respectively, in each case after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and estimated offering expenses payable by us. The 2026 notes and 2025 notes mature on September 1, 2026 and March 15, 2025, respectively, unless converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms prior to such dates.

As of June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, we have incurred cumulative losses of ~~$324.0~~$43.8 million from our operations and we may incur additional losses in the future. Our operations have been financed primarily by ~~our initial public offering of our common stock (IPO), our 2017 follow-on public offering, our~~equity and convertible senior notes offerings ~~our 2021 equity offering, and~~as well as cash generated from operations.

~~There~~Aside from the changes in operating lease obligations and unfunded commitments as disclosed in Note 1, “Background and Basis of Presentation,” and Note 4, “Cash and Cash Equivalents, Investments and Fair Value Measurements,” respectively,

of our accompanying Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements (Unaudited)” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there were no other material changes in our commitments under contractual obligations, as disclosed in Part II, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

We believe that our existing sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund our operations and debt service obligations for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, our investments in research and development activities, our acquisition of new products and services, and our sales and marketing activities. To the extent that existing cash and cash from operations are insufficient to fund our future activities, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing. Additional funds may not be available on terms favorable to us or at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, or at all, we may be unable to adequately fund our business plans and it could have a negative effect on our business, operating cash flows and financial condition.

Most of our cash, cash equivalents, and investments are held in the United States. As of June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, our foreign subsidiaries held an insignificant amount of cash in foreign jurisdictions. We currently do not intend or foresee a need to repatriate these foreign funds; however, as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, we anticipate the U.S. federal impact to be minimal if these foreign funds are repatriated. In addition, based on our current and future needs, we believe our current funding and capital resources for our international operations are adequate.

Critical Accounting Policies, Significant Judgments and Estimates

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. These estimates form the basis for judgments we make about the carrying values of our assets and liabilities, which are not readily apparent from other sources. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. The current COVID-19 pandemic has caused uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. We are not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require updates to our estimates or judgments or require us to revise the carrying value of our assets or liabilities. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the six months ended June 30, ~~2022~~2023 as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in Part II, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no ~~other~~ material changes in our market risk during the six months ended June 30, ~~2022,~~2023, compared to the disclosures in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report.

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
