2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial reporting and applicable quarterly reporting regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In management's opinion, the accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position of the Company as of March 31,September 30, 2020, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 and 2019, cash flows for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 and 2019, and stockholders' equity for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 and 2019.

Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 ("Annual Report") filed with the SEC. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 was derived from the Company's audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required under GAAP.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. This insignificant reclassification had no effect on the reported results of operations. License revenue and license cost of revenue are now combined with subscription revenue and subscription cost of revenue, respectively.

Risks and uncertainties

Coronavirus ("COVID-19") continues to spread throughout the U.S. and the world and compliance with the various containment measures implemented by governmental authorities has impacted the Company's business, as well as the businesses of its customers, suppliers and other counterparties, and this impact could last for an indefinite period of time. There are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the effect of the spread of COVID-19 as a global pandemic, and as a result, the Company is unable to predict the full impact that COVID-19 will have on its results from operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties, including the duration and severity of the pandemic and containment measures. For a full discussion on the ongoing impact of COVID-19 to the Company's business, please see "We must successfully navigate the demand, supply and operational challenges associated with the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic" under Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Changes in accounting policies


There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies and their application as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, except for the Company's adoption of certain accounting standards described in more detail under "Recently adopted accounting pronouncements" in this Note 2 below.

Fair value measurement

The Company's financial assets that are included in cash and cash equivalents and that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of $239.0$181.3 million and $273.1 million at March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and were invested in treasury money market funds. The fair value of the treasury money market funds is determined based on quoted market prices, which represents level 1 in the fair value hierarchy as defined by ASC 820.

Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are primarily comprised of trade receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, contract assets and unbilled receivables. The Company records trade accounts receivable for its unconditional rights to consideration arising

from the Company's performance under contracts with customers. The Company's standard billing terms are that payment is due upon receipt of invoice, payable generally within thirty to sixty days. The carrying value of such receivables, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, represents their estimated net realizable value. When developing its estimate of expected credit losses on trade and other receivables, the Company considers the available information relevant to assessing the collectability of cash flows, which includes a combination of both internal and external information relating to past events, current conditions, and future forecasts as well as relevant qualitative and quantitative factors that relate to the environment in which the Company operates.

Contract assets represent conditional rights to consideration that have been recognized as revenue in advance of billing the customer. Unbilled receivables represent unconditional rights to consideration arising from contingent revenue that have been recognized as revenue in advance of billing the customer.

There are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the effect of the spread of COVID-19 as a global pandemic. As a result, the impact of COVID-19 is highly uncertain and subject to change. The Company does not yet know the full extent of the impact from COVID-19 to the Company's business operations or the global economy as a whole; however, the impact could have an adverse effect on the Company's customers and inherently the related receivables.

Deferred costs

Sales commissions earned by the Company's sales representatives are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a customer contract. Sales commissions are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of benefit, which the Company has determined to be five to eight years. The Company determined the period of benefit by taking into consideration its customer contracts, expected renewals of those customer contracts (as the Company currently does not pay an incremental sales commission)commission for renewals), the Company's technology and other factors. The Company also defers amounts earned by employees other than sales representatives who earn incentive payments under compensation plans that are also tied to the value of customer contracts acquired. Deferred costs were $20.5$18.9 million and $21.2 million as of March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Amortization expense for the deferred costs was $1.4 $1.5 million and $1.1$1.3 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $4.3 million and $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Amortization of deferred costs is included in selling and marketing expense in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

Deferred implementation costs

The Company capitalizes certain contract fulfillment costs, including personnel and other costs (such as hosting, employee salaries, benefits and payroll taxes), that are associated with arrangements where professional services are not distinct from other undelivered obligations in its customer contracts. The Company analyzes implementation costs and capitalizes those costs that are directly related to customer contracts, that are expected to be recoverable, and that enhance the resources which will be used to satisfy the undelivered performance obligations in those contracts. Deferred implementation costs are amortized ratably over the remaining contract term once the revenue recognition criteria for the respective performance obligation has been met and revenue recognition commences. Deferred implementation costs were $4.1 $3.2 million and $4.4 million as of March 31,September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Amortization expense for the deferred implementation costs was $0.5$0.4 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 and 2019 and $1.4 million and $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Deferred implementation costs are included in prepaid and other current assets and other assets, noncurrent in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of deferred implementation costs is included in cost of subscription and cost of services revenues in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("Topic 326"), in order to improve financial reporting of expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit. Topic 326 requires that an entity measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost and replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that requires consideration of a broader range of information to estimate credit losses. The Company adopted Topic 326 as of January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective method and there was no material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of the adoption date. TheAs of September 30, 2020, the Company recognized a $2.6 million provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2020 representing the Company’s estimate of additionalhas recorded allowance for doubtful accounts related to trade receivables of $4.6 million primarily due to increased credit risk from uncertain economic conditions caused by COVID-19.


Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

    In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options ("Subtopic 470-20") and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity ("Subtopic 815-40"), which simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments, amends the guidance on derivative scope exceptions for contracts in an entity's own equity, and modifies the guidance on diluted earnings per share calculations as a result of these changes. This new standard is effective for the Company's interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2022, and earlier adoption is permitted on January 1, 2021. The Company may elect to apply the amendments on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of the standard on its financial statements.

With the exception of the new standards discussed above, there have been no other recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, as compared to the recent accounting pronouncements described in the Company's Annual Report, that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.

3. Deferred Revenue and Performance Obligations

Deferred Revenue

For the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized approximately $47.7$45.3 million and $38.3$45.1 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized approximately $107.2 million and $86.2 million, respectively, in each case of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balances at the beginning of the respective periods and primarily related to subscription services, maintenance and support, and services.

Performance Obligations

As of March 31,September 30, 2020, the Company expects to recognize approximately $391.0$366.8 million of revenue from remaining performance obligations. The Company expects, based on the terms of the related, underlying contractual arrangements, to recognize revenue on approximately $191.6 $175.4 million of these performance obligations over the next 12 months, with the balance recognized thereafter. However, as a result of uncertain economic conditions caused by COVID-19, the amount of revenue recognized from the Company's contractual remaining performance obligations could vary and be less than what the Company expects as revenue recognized could be delayed or not occur depending on the ongoing impact of COVID-19.

The Company accounted for the transaction as a business combination and all of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in the transaction have been recognized at their acquisition date fair values. The Company recorded approximately $2 million for developed technology and customer relationships with estimated useful lives of 7 years and 5 years, respectively. The Company recorded approximately $11 million of goodwill which is primarily related to the assembled workforce and expanded market opportunities from integrating Travelaer's technology with the Company's solutions. The goodwill balance is not deductible for U.S. income tax purposes.

6. Leases

Some of these leases include options to extend for up to 15 years, and some include options to terminate within 1 year.

In February 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with a computer infrastructure vendor which resulted in future consideration to be paid by the Company for services provided. The Company accounted for this agreement as an operating lease and in result obtained a $1.5 million right-of-use asset in exchange for a new lease liability of the same amount at lease inception.

In accounting for the transaction costs for the 2024 Notes issuance, the Company allocated the costs incurred to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the proceeds from issuance to the liability and equity components. Issuance costs attributable to the liability component, totaling $2.8 million and $3.4 million for the 2027 and 2024 Notes, respectively, are being amortized to expense over the expected life of the notes using the effective interest method. Issuance costs attributable to the equity component related to the conversion option, totaling $1.3 million and $1.1 million for the 2027 and 2024 Notes, respectively, were netted with the equity component in stockholders' equity.

Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions

Concurrently with the offering of the 2019 Notes, the Company entered into separate convertible note hedge (the "Note Hedge") and warrant (the "Warrant") transactions. Taken together, the purchase of the Note Hedge and the sale of the Warrant were intended to offset any actual dilution from the conversion of the 2019 Notes and to effectively increase the overall conversion

price of the 2019 Notes from $33.79 to $45.48 per share. The Warrant was not part of the 2019 Notes or Note Hedge. Both the Note Hedge and Warrant were recorded as part of additional paid-in capital.
As of December 31, 2019, the Note Hedge was settled through certain note hedge termination agreements and exercise of any remaining Note Hedge. In 2019, the Company entered into certain warrant termination agreements which terminated certain of the Warrants that were entered into by the Company in connection with the offering of the 2019 Notes. The remaining Warrants expireexpired in August 2020 and, if exercised, will settle on a net share basis.2020.

Capped Call Transactions

In September 2020 and in May 2019, in connection with the offering of the 2027 and 2024 Notes, respectively, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (collectively,(collectively, the "Capped Call") with certain option counterparties. The Capped Call transactions cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock initially underlying the 2024 Notes, at a strike price that corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2024 Notes, also subject to adjustment, and are exercisable upon conversion of the 2024 Notes. The Capped Call transactions are intended to reduce potential dilution ofto the Company'sCompany’s common stock and/or offset any cash payments the Company will be required to make in excess of the principal amountamounts upon any conversion of 2024 Notes, and to effectively increase the overall conversion price of the 2027 Notes from $41.82 to $78.90 per share, and for the 2024 Notes from $66.05 to $101.62 per share. As the Capped Call transactions meet certain accounting criteria, they are recorded in stockholders’ equity and are not accounted for as

COVID-19 Impact

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the coronavirus ("COVID-19") a pandemic. COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the U.S. and the world and has resulted in governmental authorities implementing numerous measures to contain the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business limitations and shutdowns. Compliance with these measures by us and by our customers has impacted our business, as well as the businesses of our customers, suppliers and other counterparties, and this impact could last for an indefinite period of time. In particular, in the travel industry, our airline customers are managing historic declines in demand for travel globally. If a significant number of our customers are unable to continue as a going concern, seek to avoid their contracts with us as part of filing for bankruptcy protection, or reduce their purchasing volumes following expiration of their current contracts, this would have an adverse impact on our business and financial condition. There are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the effect of the spread of COVID-19 as a global pandemic, may have, and as a result, we are unable to predict the full impact that COVID-19 will have on our results from operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties, including the duration and severity of the pandemic and containment measures. For a full discussion on the ongoing impact of COVID-19 to our business, please see "We must successfully navigate the demand, supply and operational challenges associated with the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic" under Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Q1Q3 2020 Financial Overview

In the firstthird quarter of 2020, subscription revenue increased 40%9% and 22%, respectively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the same periodperiods in 2019. Our continuing shift to a subscription-based revenue model also led to a growth of recurring revenue (which consists of subscription revenue and maintenance and support revenue) as a percentage of 20%total revenue as compared to the first three months of 2019, andit accounted for 84%86% and 85% of total revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2020.September 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to 83% and 81% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. Our total revenue decreased 4% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019, and increased 4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to 2019. Revenue in fiscal year 2020 has been impacted by slower customer bookings as a result of decreased demand for new subscriptions and services and delays to projects during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cash used in operating activities was $24.2$61.8 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, as compared to $8.1$7.6 million for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2019. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to higher cash operating expenses driven mainly by an increase in headcount and higher annual incentive payment as compared to prior year, deferred payment terms for certain customers impacted by the pandemic, and partially offset by an increase in sales and related cash collections. In addition, in response to the economic conditions caused by COVID-19, several customers delayed payments we expected to receive inimpact of lower customer bookings as a result of the quarter which had an adverse impact on our reported net cash used in operating activities.pandemic.

Free cash flow is another key metric to assess the strength of our business. We define free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities minus capital expenditures (excluding expenditures for our new headquarters), purchases of other (non-acquisition-related) intangible assets and capitalized internal-use software development costs. We believe free cash flow may be useful to investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating the amount of cash generated by our business operations. Free cash flow used during the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 was $25.5$15.7 million, compared to $9.6free cash flow of $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2019. Free cash flow used during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $64.8 million, compared to $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This increase was primarily attributable to a $16.1

Factors Affecting Our Performance

Key factors and trends that have affected, and we believe will continue to affect, our operating results include:
    
COVID-19. The global economy has been significantly negatively impacted by COVID-19, and demand for some of our solutions, in particular our travel solutions, has been significantly reduced due
COVID-19 Global Impact. The global economy has been significantly and negatively impacted by COVID-19, and the scope and duration of the outbreak and timeframe for economic recovery is uncertain. The travel industry, a sector served by our solutions, has been particularly adversely impacted. For example, unprecedented declines in travel demand have forced airlines, including some of our customers, to respond by significantly reducing capacity, grounding flights, reducing personnel, adjusting corporate liquidity and, in certain cases, filing for bankruptcy protection. The global workplace environment has also substantially changed in the wake of COVID-19. To support the health and well-being of our employees, customers, partners and communities, our global workforce has been primarily working remotely since March 16, 2020. In addition, many of our customers are also working primarily remotely, which in some cases has delayed, and may continue to impact the timing of new business and implementations of our solutions. The duration and extent of the impact of COVID-19 continues to uncertainty and the economic impact of COVID-19. COVID-19 did not have a material adverse impact on our financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2020, except for operating cash flow and bad debt expense recognized as a result of increased credit risk from uncertain economic conditions. We currently expect that new bookings and the related revenue and cash flows will be lower than initially anticipated as a result of decreased demand for new subscriptions and services and delays to projects during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, customers in certain of the industries most impacted by COVID-19, have requested, and we expect will continue to request, relief to existing contracts, and the impact of those is uncertain. For example, some customers and prospective customers are delaying projects while they address immediate financial crises in their operations due to COVID-19. In particular, in the travel industry, airlines are managing historic declines in travel demand by cutting their flight schedules, reducing personnel and managing their liquidity. Until travel demand improves, we expect that demand for certain of our airline travel solutions will be limited and that implementation projects will be delayed by current travel industry customers, both of which will negatively impact subscription revenue. To support the health and well-being of our employees, customers, partners and communities, our global workforce has been working remotely since March 16, 2020. In addition, many of our customers are working remotely, which may delay the timing of new business and implementations of our services. The duration and extent of the impact of COVID-19 is unknown at this time and could continue to impact the pace and timing of adoption and implementation of our solutions, cash flow from operations and customer churn.

COVID-19 Financial Impact. As compared to our expectations prior to COVID-19, the global economic impact of COVID-19 adversely impacted our revenue, bad debt expense and operating cash flow during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. We expect customer bookings and the related revenue and cash flows will continue to be lower than anticipated prior to the pandemic as a result of decreased demand for new subscriptions and services and delays to projects during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, certain customers have requested, and we expect will continue to request, relief to existing contracts and the impact of those is uncertain. For example, some customers and prospective customers are delaying projects while they address immediate financial difficulties in their operations, renegotiating existing contracts, and in limited cases filing for bankruptcy protection. Based on demand for their own products and services being down due to COVID-19, some of our customers, particularly those in the travel industry, may renew their subscriptions for our solutions at lower capacity levels for a lower annual fee. The impact on our revenue due to such reduced renewals, combined with other customer actions described in this paragraph, is uncertain.

Buying Preferences Driving Technology Adoption. Corporate buyers are increasingly demanding the same type of digital buying experience that they enjoy as consumers. For example, buyers often prefer not to interact with a sales representative as their primary source of research, and increasingly prefer to buy online when they have already decided what to buy, particularly during the current pandemic environment. In response, we believe that businesses are increasingly modernizing their sales process to compete in digital commerce by adopting technologies which provide

fast, frictionless, and personalized buying experiences across sales channels. We believe we are uniquely positioned to help power these buying experiences with our AI-powered solutions that enable buyers to move fluidly across our customers’ direct sales, online, mobile and partner channels and have personalized experiences however they choose to buy.

Continued Investments. In light of COVID-19, we are continuing to be measured in our investments and focused on cost control efforts across our organization, while continuing to create awareness for our solutions, expand our customer base and grow our recurring revenues. While we incurred losses in the first nine months of 2020, we believe our market is large and underpenetrated and therefore we intend to continue investing in sales, marketing, customer success, cloud support, security, privacy, infrastructure and other long-term initiatives to expand our ability to sell and renew our subscription offerings globally. We also plan to continue investing in product development to enhance our existing technologies, including initiatives to accelerate customer time-to-value and provide out-of-the-box integration with third-party commerce solutions, and develop new applications and technologies. In reaction to the COVID-19 environment, we have slowed our overall rate of hiring while continuing to hire for certain strategic positions and have transferred personnel within the company and redeployed other resources to focus on current priorities.

Cloud Migrations. Sales of our cloud-based solutions have, and we expect future sales of our cloud-based solutions will continue to reduce our future maintenance and support revenue, as existing customers migrate from our licensed solutions to our cloud solutions.

Sales Mix Impacts Subscription Revenue Recognition Timing. The mix of subscription services and professional services can create revenue variability in given periods based on the nature and scope of services sold together. Professional services that are deemed to be distinct from the subscription services are accounted for as a separate performance obligation and revenue is recognized as the services are performed. If determined the professional services are not considered distinct, the professional services and the subscription services are considered to be a single performance obligation and all revenue is recognized over the contractual term of the subscription beginning on the date subscription services are made available to the customer, resulting in a deferral of revenue and revenue recognized over a shorter period of time, which would have a negative near-term financial impact.

Subscription revenue. Subscription revenue increased primarily due to an increased number of customer subscription contracts as compared to the prior year. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, our subscription revenue growth was negatively impacted by an increase in customer churn mainly due to the impact of COVID-19. Our ability to maintain consistent customer attrition rates will directly impact our ability to continue to grow our subscription revenue. Due to the uncertain economic conditions caused by COVID-19, we expect subscription revenue to grow at a slower pace.

Maintenance and support revenue. Maintenance and support revenue decreased primarily as result of migrating existing maintenance customers to our cloud solutions.solutions and to a lesser extent customer churn due to the impact of COVID-19. We expect maintenance revenue to continue to decline over time as we migrate existing maintenance customers to our cloud solutions.

Services revenue. Services revenue increaseddecreased primarily as a result of performing implementation services for a greaterreduced number of customers than in the prior year.year due to the impact of COVID-19. Services revenue varies from period to period depending on different factors, including the level of professional services required to implement our solutions, the timing of services revenue recognition on certain subscription contracts and any additional professional services requested by our customers during a particular period. Due to the uncertain economic conditions caused by COVID-19, we expect somea decline in services revenue.

Income tax provision. The tax provision for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 included both foreign income and withholding taxes. No tax benefit was recognized on jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year due to the valuation allowances on our deferred tax assets.

Our effective tax rate was (0.7)(1.7)% and (1.3)(1.0)% for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, respectively, and (0.6)% and (1.1)% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. The income tax rate varies from the 21% federal statutory rate primarily due to the valuation allowances on our deferred tax assets and foreign and state taxes not based on income.assets. While our expected tax rate would be 0% due to the full valuation on the deferred tax assets, the (0.7)(1.7)% and (1.3)(1.0)% for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, respectively, and (0.6)% and (1.1)% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, is due to foreign income taxes and state taxes not based on pre-tax income.

Jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year where no tax benefit can be recognized due to the valuation allowances on our deferred tax assets are excluded from the estimated annual federal effective tax rate. The impact of such an exclusion could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a particular quarter depending on the mix and timing of actual earnings versus annual projections.


We continue to monitor for tax reform responses to COVID-19,developments and new legislation and regulation in each of the resulting impact of those reforms to us.jurisdictions we operate in. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted byin the United States on March 27, 2020. We are continuing to analyze the CARES Act, but theThe CARES Act did not have a material impact on our provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31,September 30, 2020, we had $251.8$322.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and $142.8$245.6 million of working capital as compared to $306.1$306.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and $189.8$189.8 million of working capital at December 31, 2019.

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash and cash equivalents, cash flows generated from operations and potential borrowings under our $50 million secured Credit Agreement ("Revolver") with the lenders party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as agent for the lenders party thereto. The facility expires in July 2022. We issued the 2027 Notes in September 2020 and the 2024 Notes in May 2019 to supplement our overall liquidity position. Our material drivers or variants of operating cash flow are net income (loss), noncash expenses (principally share-based compensation, intangible amortization and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs) and the timing of periodic invoicing and cash collections related to licenses, subscriptions and support for our software and related services. Our operating cash flows are also impacted by the timing of payments to our vendors, the payments of our other liabilities and customer relief.concessions. We generally pay our vendors and service providers in accordance with the invoice terms and conditions.

We believe our existing cash, cash equivalents, including funds available under our Revolver and our current estimates of future operating cash flows, will provide adequate liquidity and capital resources to meet our operational requirements, anticipated capital expenditures and coupon interest payments for our Notes for the next twelve months. Our future working capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the operations of our existing business, potential growth of our subscription services, future acquisitions we might undertake, expansion into complementary businesses, and the impact of COVID-19, including the pace and timing of adoption and implementation of our solutions, relief to existing contracts and customer churn. If such need arises, we may raise additional funds through equity or debt financings. However, the recent COVID-19 pandemic has caused some disruption in the capital markets and itfurther disruption could make financing more difficult and/or expensive and we may not be able to obtain such financing on terms acceptable to us or at all. During the period of uncertainty and volatility related to COVID-19, we will continue to monitor our liquidity.

The $16.1$54.2 million increase in cash used as compared to 2019 was primarily attributable to higher cash operating expenses driven mainly by an increase in headcount and higher annual incentive payment as compared to prior year, customer requests to defer payments to the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020 and partially offset by an increase in salesearly 2021 and related cash collections. In addition, in response to the economic conditions caused by COVID-19, several customers delayed payments we expected to receive inimpact of lower customer bookings as a result of the quarter which had an adverse impact on our reported net cash used in operating activities.pandemic.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The complexity and judgment required in our estimation process, as well as issues related to the assumptions, risks and uncertainties inherent in determining the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations and determining the standalone selling price of performance obligations, affect the amounts of revenue, expenses, unbilled receivables and deferred revenue. Estimates are also used for, but not limited to, receivables, allowance for doubtful accounts, operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, useful lives of assets, depreciation, income taxes and deferred tax asset valuation, valuation of stock options, other current liabilities and accrued liabilities. Numerous internal and external factors can affect estimates. Our critical accounting policies related to the estimates and judgments are discussed in our Annual Report under management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

Although our contracts are predominately denominated in U.S. dollars, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk because we also have some contracts denominated in foreign currencies. The effect of a hypothetical 10% adverse change in exchange rates on our foreign denominated receivables as of March 31,September 30, 2020 would result in a loss of approximately $0.3 $0.5 million. WeWe are also exposed to foreign currency risk due to our operating subsidiaries in France, United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Australia, Bulgaria and United Arab Emirates. A hypothetical 10% adverse change in the value of the U.S. dollar in relation to the euro, which is our single most significant foreign currency exposure, would have decreased revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 by approximately $0.4 million. However,$0.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively. However, due to the relatively low volume of payments made and received through our foreign subsidiaries, we do not believe that we have significant exposure to foreign currency exchange risks. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could harm our financial results in the future.

We currently do not use derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreign currency exchange risks. We continue to review this matter and may consider hedging certain foreign exchange risks through the use of currency futures or optionsderivatives in future years.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to market risk for changes in interest rates related to the variable interest rate on borrowings under the Revolver. As of March 31,September 30, 2020, we had no borrowings under the Revolver.


As of March 31,September 30, 2020, we had outstanding principal amountamounts of $150.0 million and $143.8 million of the 2027 and the 2024 Notes, respectively, which are fixed rate instruments. Therefore, our results of operations are not subject to fluctuations in interest rates. The fair value of the Notes may change when the market price of our stock fluctuates.

We believe that we do not have any material exposure to changes in the fair value as a result of changes in interest rates due to the short term nature of our cash equivalents.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31,September 30, 2020. Based on our evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31,September 30, 2020, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that our employees are working remotely due to COVID-19. We are continually monitoring and assessing the COVID-19 situation on our internal controls to minimize the impact on their design and operating effectiveness.

We implemented internal controls to ensure we adequately evaluated our provisions for credit losses in light of the adoption of Topic 326 on January 1, 2020. There were no significant changes to our internal control over financial reporting due to the adoption of Topic 326.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we are a party to legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently aware of any such proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes in the Company's risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report with the exception of the following additional risk factor:factors:

We must successfully navigate the demand, supply and operational challenges associated with the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreakThe ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted, and may continue to adversely impact, many aspects of our business. As COVID-19 a pandemic. COVID-19 continueshas continued to spread throughout the U.S. and the world, and has resulteda number of governmental authorities have implemented or reinstated numerous severe measures in governmental authorities across the globe implementing numerous measures an attempt to contain the virus,spread of COVID-19, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, and business limitations and shutdowns. Compliance with these measures by us and by our prospects and customers has impacted our business, as well as the businesses of our customers, prospects, suppliers and other counterparties, and this impact could last for an indefinite period of time. In particular,For example, in the travel industry, our airline customers are managing historicexperiencing unprecedented declines in demand for travel globally. Thereglobally, airline travel demand may remain suppressed until a widely accepted treatment and/or vaccine for COVID-19 is available, and recovery in airline travel demand from COVID-19 may not follow a linear path. The economic impact of COVID-19 has also adversely impacted a number of our prospects and customers, who have experienced, and may continue to experience, downturns or uncertainty in their own businesses. In response, some prospects and customers, particularly those in the travel industry, have decreased, and may continue to decrease, spending on technology initiatives, as well as stalled or halted implementation projects while they address their immediate financial difficulties, including in limited cases through filing for bankruptcy protection. In addition, certain customers have requested, and we expect will continue to request, concessions from existing contracts, and the extent and impact of future requests is uncertain. If a significant number of our customers are unable to make their contractually obligated payments to us, elect to file for bankruptcy protection, or otherwise choose to renew their current contracts for our solutions at lower usage levels, this would have an adverse impact on our business and financial condition.The impact on our revenue due to such reduced renewals, combined with other customer actions described in this paragraph, is uncertain.

As compared to our expectations prior to COVID-19, the global economic impact of COVID-19 adversely impacted our revenue, bad debt expense and operating cash flow during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. We expect that customer bookings and the related revenue and cash flows will continue to be lower than anticipated prior to the pandemic as a result of decreased demand for new subscriptions and services and delays to projects during the pandemic. In particular, new demand for our airline solutions has been limited during COVID-19, and we expect that new demand for our airline solutions will continue to be limited in the near term. In response, we have postponed or canceled, and may continue to postpone or cancel, planned investments in our business, which may impact our product development and rate of innovation, either of which could seriously harm our business. However, as there are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the effect of the spread of COVID-19, as a globalthe resultant personal, economic and governmental reactions, or the extent and duration of the pandemic may have and as a result,containment measures, we are unable to predictforecast the full impact that COVID-19 will have on our bookings, revenue, results from operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows, due to numerous uncertainties, including the duration and severity of the pandemic and containment measures.

To support the health and well-being of our employees, customers, partners and communities, our global workforce has been working remotely since March 16, 2020, and we have materially limited both in-office work and business travel. We believe these actions were reasonable and necessary, and we have not experienced any material interruptions in our operations; however, the disruptions caused by COVID-19 may result in inefficiencies, delays and additional costs in our product development, sales, marketing and customer service efforts that we cannot fully mitigate through remote work arrangements. Given the continued spread of COVID-19 and the resultant personal, economic and governmental reactions, we may have to take additional actions in the future that could further harm our business and financial performance.

Our business has also begun to be negatively affected by a range of external factors related to COVID-19 that are not within our control. For example, numerous measures have been implemented by governmental authorities across the globeto contain the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business limitations and shutdowns. Many of our customers’ businesses have been severely impacted by these measures and some have been required to reduce employee headcount as a result. If a significant number of our customers are unable to continue as a going concern, this would have an adverse impact on our business and financial condition.In addition, many of our customers are working remotely, which may delay the timing of new business and implementations of our services. If COVID-19 continues to have a substantial impact on our partners or customers, our results of operations and overall financial performance will be harmed.

The impacts of COVID-19 on our business, customers, partners, employees, markets and financial results and condition are uncertain, evolving and dependent on numerous unpredictable factors outside of our control, including:

the spread, duration and severity of COVID-19 as a public health matter and its impact on governments, businesses and society generally and our clients, partners and our business more specifically;

the measures being taken by governments, businesses and society in response to COVID-19 and the effectiveness of those measures;

the scope and effectiveness of fiscal and monetary stimulus programs and other legislative and regulatory measures being implemented by federal, state and local governments in response to COVID-19;

the duration and impact of the numerous measures implemented by governmental authorities throughout the country to contain COVID-19, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business limitations and shutdowns;

the increase in business failures among our customers and other businesses;

the pace and extent to which our customers and other businesses reduce their number of employees and other compensated individuals;

the possibility of failure of our operating facilities, computer systems or communication systems during a catastrophic event, including COVID-19;

the willingness of current and prospective clients to invest in our products and services;

the willingness of current and prospective clients to buy and install products and services remotely; and

the satisfaction of customers with product and service remote delivery and support.

If we are not able to respond to and manage the impact of such events effectively, our business will be harmed.

At present, it is clear the global economy has been significantly negatively impacted by COVID-19, and demand for some of our solutions, in particular our travel solutions, has been significantly reduced due to uncertainty and the economic impact of COVID-19. COVID-19 did not have a material adverse impact on our financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2020, except for operating cash flow. We currently expect that new bookings and the related revenue and cash flows will be lower than initially anticipated as a result of decreased demand for new subscriptions and services and delays to projects during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, customers in certain of the industries most impacted by COVID-19, have requested, and we expect will continue to request, relief to existing contracts, and the impact of those is uncertain. For example, some customers and prospective customers are delaying projects while they address immediate financial crises in their operations due to COVID-19. In particular, in the travel industry, airlines are managing historic declines in travel demand by cutting their flight schedules, reducing personnel and managing their liquidity. Until travel demand improves, we expect that demand for certain of our airline travel solutions will be limited and that implementation projects will be delayed by current travel industry customers, both of which will negatively impact subscription revenue. The duration and extent of the impact of COVID-19 is unknown at this time and could continue to impact the pace and timing of adoption and implementation of our solutions, cash flow from operations and customer churn.

More generally, COVID-19 raises the possibility of an extended global economic downturn and has caused volatility in financial markets, which could affect demand for our products and services and impact our results and financial condition even after the pandemic is contained and the containment measures are lifted. For example, we may be unable to collect receivables from or renew subscription agreements with those customers significantly impacted by COVID-19. Also, a decrease in orders in a given period could negatively affect our revenues in future periods, particularly if experienced on a sustained basis, because our subscription revenue is recognized over time. COVID-19 may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, including risks associated with our customers and supply chain. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact of COVID-19 to our business. Although we expect that current cash and cash equivalent balances and cash flows that are generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs and other capital and liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months, if our access to capital is restricted or our borrowing costs increase, our operations and financial condition could be adversely impacted.

To support the health and well-being of our employees, customers, partners and communities, we implemented and expect to continue a work-from-home policy for substantially all our employees and materially limited business travel, and we may take further actions that alter our operations as may be required by federal, state, or local authorities, or which we determine are in our best interests. While almost all of our operations have been performed remotely since March 2020, and we have not experienced any material interruptions to our operations to date, there is no guarantee that we will continue to be as effective while working remotely. The disruptions caused by COVID-19, including the limitations on meeting in-person with existing and potential customers and amongst our teams because our team is dispersed, may result in inefficiencies, delays and additional costs in our product development, sales, marketing, product implementations and customer service efforts that we

cannot fully mitigate through remote work arrangements. Many employees have additional personal needs to attend to (such as looking after children as a result of school closures or delays to school calendars or family who becomes sick), and employees may continue to become sick themselves and be unable to work. If one or more of our executives or senior leaders were to become sick and/or hospitalized with COVID-19, it could have a significant impact on our operations. In addition, work-from-home and related business practice modifications could present challenges to maintaining our corporate culture, including employee engagement, development and productivity, both during the ongoing pandemic and as we make additional adjustments to transition from it. As local regulations permit, we expect to provide limited access to our offices for our employees, and when appropriate, we anticipate that we will fully reopen our offices. Planning for the re-opening of our offices has required and will likely continue to require non-trivial investments to manage additional risks and operational challenges, including in the design, implementation and enforcement of new workplace safety protocols. These efforts may divert management attention, and the protocols may create logistical challenges for our employees which could adversely impact employee productivity and morale. Even if we follow what we believe to be best practices, there can be no assurance that our measures will prevent the transmission of COVID-19 between employees. Any incidents of actual or perceived transmission may expose us to liability from employee claims, adversely impact employee productivity and morale, and even result in negative publicity and reputational harm.

The impacts of COVID-19 on our business, customers, partners, employees, markets and financial results and condition continue to be uncertain, evolving, dynamic and dependent on numerous unpredictable factors outside of our control, including:

the spread, duration and severity of COVID-19 as a public health matter and its impact on governments, businesses and society generally and our clients, partners and our business;

the mitigation, treatment and other related measures being taken by governments, businesses and society in response to COVID-19 and the effectiveness of those measures;

the scope and effectiveness of fiscal and monetary stimulus programs and other legislative and regulatory measures being implemented by federal, state and local governments in response to COVID-19;

the duration and impact of the numerous measures implemented by governmental authorities throughout the United States and internationally to contain COVID-19, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business limitations and shutdowns;

the impact of COVID-19 on overall long-term demand for air travel, including the impact on overall demand for business travel as a result of increased usage of teleconferencing and other technologies;

the impact of COVID-19 on the financial health and operations of our current and prospective customers and partners, including the increase in business failures among our customers and other businesses;

the pace and extent to which our customers and other businesses reduce their number of employees and other compensated individuals;

the possibility of failure of our operating facilities, computer systems or communication systems during a catastrophic event, including COVID-19;

the willingness of current and prospective clients to invest in our products and services;

the willingness of current and prospective clients to buy and install products and services remotely; and

the satisfaction of customers with product and service remote delivery and support.

If we are not able to respond to and manage the impact of such events effectively, our results of operations, financial performance, and overall business will be harmed.

More generally, COVID-19 is causing an extended global economic downturn and has caused volatility in financial markets, which has affected, and likely will continue to affect, demand for our products and services and has impacted our results and financial condition. The impact of COVID-19 will likely continue even after the pandemic is contained, vaccines or other widely accepted treatments become available and the containment measures are lifted. For example, airline travel demand may remain suppressed until a widely accepted treatment and/or vaccine for COVID-19 is available, and recovery in airline

travel demand from COVID-19 may not follow a linear path. In addition, we may be unable to collect receivables from or renew subscription agreements with those customers significantly impacted by COVID-19. Similarly, a decrease in bookings in a given period could negatively affect our revenues in future periods, particularly if experienced on a sustained basis, because our subscription revenue is recognized over time. COVID-19 may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, including risks associated with our customers and supply chain. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact of COVID-19 to our business.

We incurred indebtedness by issuing convertible notes, and our debt repayment obligations may adversely affect our financial condition and cash flows from operations in the future.

In September 2020, we issued $150.0 million principal amount of 2.25% convertible senior notes (“2027 Notes”) due September 15, 2027, unless earlier redeemed, purchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year. As of September 30, 2020, the entire $150.0 million of aggregate principal amount of 2027 Notes are outstanding.

In May 2019, we issued $143.8 million principal amount of 1.0% convertible senior notes (“2024 Notes”) due May 15, 2024, unless earlier redeemed, purchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year. As of September 30, 2020, the entire $143.8 million of aggregate principal amount of 2024 Notes are outstanding.

Our indebtedness could have important consequences because it may impair our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate or other purposes. Our ability to meet our debt obligations will depend on our future performance, which will be affected by financial, business, economic, regulatory and other factors. We cannot control many of these factors. Our future operations may not generate sufficient cash to enable us to repay our debt. If we fail to comply with any covenants contained in the agreements governing any of our debt, or make a payment on any of our debt when due, we could be in default on such debt, which could, in turn, result in such debt and our other indebtedness becoming immediately payable in full. If we are at any time unable to pay our indebtedness when due, we may be required to renegotiate the terms of the indebtedness, seek to refinance all or a portion of the indebtedness, and/or obtain additional financing. There can be no assurance that, in the future, we will be able to successfully renegotiate such terms, that any such refinancing would be possible or that any additional financing could be obtained on terms that are favorable or acceptable to us.
