1.Organization and Description of Business

Envestnet, Inc. (“Envestnet”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) provide intelligent systems for wealth management and financial wellness. Envestnet’s unified technology enhances advisor productivity and strengthens the wealth management process. Through a combination of platform enhancements, partnerships and acquisitions, Envestnet empowers enterprises and advisors to more fully understand their clients and deliver better outcomes.

Envestnet is organized around two primary, complementary business segments. Financial information about each business segment is contained in “Note 15—Segment Information” to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

2.Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2020 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 and reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2020 and the results of operations, equity, comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for the periods presented herein. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Accounts for the Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment that are denominated in a non-U.S. currency have been re-measured using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. Certain accounts within the Envestnet Data & Analytics segment are recorded and measured in foreign currencies. The assets and liabilities for those subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates. Differences arising from these foreign currency translations are recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders' equity. The Company is also subject to gains and losses from foreign currency denominated transactions and the remeasurement of foreign currency denominated balance sheet accounts, both of which are included in other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. References to GAAP in these notes are to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification, sometimes referred to as the codification or “ASC.” These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2020.
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
The following table reconciles cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash from the condensed consolidated balance sheets to amounts reported within the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:

Financial Impacts Related To COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19, a novel strain of Coronavirus, a global pandemic. This outbreak is causing major disruptions to businesses and markets worldwide as the virus spreads. The extent of the effect on the Company’s operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration, spread and intensity of the pandemic, and governmental, regulatory and private sector responses, all of which are uncertain and difficult to predict. Although the Company is unable to estimate the overall financial effect of the pandemic at this time, if the pandemic continues, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. As of September 30, 2020, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments as a result of the pandemic.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements—In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326).” This update significantly changes the way that entities will be required to measure credit losses. This standard requires that entities estimate credit losses based upon an “expected credit loss” approach rather than the “incurred loss” approach, which is currently used. The new approach will require entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable forecasts of collectability. The change in approach is anticipated to impact the timing of recognition of credit losses. This standard is effective for financial statements issued by public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. These changes became effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning January 1, 2020. The Company recognized the cumulative effect of the initial application of ASU 2016-13 as an adjustment of $1,141, net of tax, to the opening balance of accumulated deficit. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to have a material impact to the results of its operations on an ongoing basis.
Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements—In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This update aims to reduce complexity within the accounting for income taxes as part of the simplification initiative. This standard is effective for financial statements issued by public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption of the standard is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
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 Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity.” This update 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 standard is effective for financial statements issued by public companies for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption of the standard is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

3. Business Acquisitions

Investment in Private Services Company

On January 8, 2020, the Company acquired a 4.25% membership interest in a private services company for cash consideration of $11,000. The private services company partners with independent network advisory firms to help them grow, become more profitable and run more efficiently. The Company will use the equity method of accounting to record its portion of the private services company’s net income or loss on a one quarter lag from the actual results of operations. The Company uses the equity method of accounting because of its less than 50% ownership and lack of control and does not otherwise exercise control over the significant economic decisions of the private services company.

The private services company is and remains a client of the Company and has thus been determined to be a related party. Revenues from the private services company totaled $2,883 and $7,956 in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had recorded a net receivable of $1,803 from the private services company.

Acquisition of Private Technology Company

On February 18, 2020, the Company, through it's wholly owned subsidiary Yodlee, Inc. (“Yodlee”), acquired a private technology company (the “Private Technology Company Acquisition”). The private technology company enables the consent generation and data flow between financial information providers, such as banks and financial institutions, and financial information users, such as financial technology lenders and other financial services agencies, through a network of cloud-based interoperable interfaces or application programming interfaces. The technology and operations of the private technology company have been integrated into the Envestnet Data & Analytics segment.

In connection with the Private Technology Company Acquisition, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares and paid cash consideration of $2,343, net of cash acquired, subject to certain closing and post-closing adjustments, plus up to an additional $6,750 in contingent consideration, based upon achieving certain performance targets. The Company recorded a liability as of the date of acquisition of $5,239, which represented the estimated fair value of contingent consideration on the date of acquisition.

In June 2020, the Company determined that certain performance targets for this acquisition would not be met. As a result, the Company reduced the contingent consideration liability plus accrued interest associated with this acquisition by $1,982 and recorded this as a reduction to general and administration expenses. In September 2020, the Company further reduced the contingent consideration liability associated with this acquisition by an immaterial amount. Future changes to the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration, if any, will be recognized in earnings of the Company.

The Company recorded estimated goodwill of $7,017, which is not deductible for income tax purposes, and estimated identifiable intangible assets for proprietary technologies of $1,000. The tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were not material.

The results of the private technology company's operations are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations beginning February 18, 2020 and were not considered material to the Company’s results of operations.

Acquisition of Private Cloud Technology Company

On March 2, 2020, the Company acquired certain assets of a private cloud technology company (the “Private Cloud Technology Company Acquisition”). The private cloud technology company enables enterprises to design and implement the digital transition from legacy systems and applications to a modern cloud computing platform. The technology and operations of the private cloud technology company have been integrated into our Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment.

In connection with the Private Cloud Technology Company Acquisition, the Company paid estimated consideration of $11,968, net of cash acquired. In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded estimated goodwill of $10,932, which is deductible for income tax purposes. The tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were not material.

The results of the private cloud technology company's operations are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations beginning March 2, 2020 and were not considered material to the Company’s results of operations.

Acquisition of Private Financial Technology Design Company

On March 3, 2020, the Company acquired the outstanding units of a private financial technology design company that were not owned by the Company and merged the acquired company into a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Private Financial Technology Design Company Acquisition”). The private financial technology design company designs integrated, intuitive digital technology applications for institutional financial services firms, bank wealth management organizations, independent advisor networks, and broker-dealers. The technology and operations of the private financial technology design company have been integrated into the Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment.

The Company previously owned approximately 45% of the outstanding units in this private financial technology design company, and accounted for it as an equity method investment. Based upon the estimated value of the private financial technology design company of $11,026, the Company paid estimated consideration of $5,946, net of cash acquired, for the remaining outstanding units. As a result of the acquisition, the Company recognized a gain of $4,230 in the first quarter of 2020

on the re-measurement to fair value of its previously held interest, which is included in other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations
In connection with the Private Financial Technology Design Company Acquisition, the Company recorded estimated total goodwill of $9,241, of which approximately $6,658 is deductible for income tax purposes, and estimated identifiable intangible assets for proprietary technologies of $2,000. The tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were not material.

The results of the private financial technology design company's operations are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations beginning March 3, 2020 and were not considered material to the Company’s results of operations.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, acquisition related costs for the Company's 2020 acquisitions were not material, and are included in general and administration expenses. The Company may incur additional acquisition related costs over the remainder of 2020.

The goodwill arising from these acquisitions represents the expected synergistic benefits of these transactions, primarily related to an increase in future revenues as a result of potential new business and cross selling opportunities, as well as enhancements to our existing technologies.

For the Company's 2020 acquisitions, the estimated fair values of certain of the assets and liabilities acquired are provisional and based on the information that was available to the Company as of the acquisition date. The estimated fair values of these provisional items are based on certain valuation and other studies and are in progress and not yet at the point where there is sufficient information for a definitive measurement. The Company believes the preliminary information provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values of these amounts, but is waiting for additional information necessary to finalize those fair values. Therefore, provisional measurements of fair values reflected are subject to change and such changes could be significant. The Company expects to finalize the valuation of these estimated assets and liabilities as soon as reasonably practicable but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

Pro Forma Financial Information

Convertible Notes due 2025

In August 2020, the Company issued $517,500 of Convertible Notes due 2025 that mature on August 15, 2025. The Convertible Notes due 2025 bear interest at a rate of 0.75 percent per annum payable semiannually in arrears in cash on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on February 15, 2021. The Convertible Notes due 2025 are general unsecured obligations, subordinated in right of payment to our obligations under the Company's revolving credit facility. The notes are structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of any of the Company's subsidiaries, other than its wholly owned subsidiary, Envestnet Asset Management, Inc., which will fully and unconditionally guarantee the notes on an unsecured basis. The Convertible Notes due 2025 rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company's other existing and future senior indebtedness.

Upon the occurrence of a “fundamental change,” as defined in the indenture, the holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the Convertible Notes due 2025 for cash at 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes due 2025 being purchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the notes, at our option, on or after August 15, 2023 if the last reported sale price of our common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days, consecutive or non-consecutive, within a 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, any of the five trading days immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption.

The Convertible Notes due 2025 are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock under certain circumstances prior to maturity at a conversion rate of 9.3682 shares per one thousand principal amount of the Convertible Notes due 2025, which represents a conversion price of $106.74 per share, subject to adjustment under certain conditions. Holders may convert their Convertible Notes due 2025 at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding February 15, 2025, under certain circumstances. The Company’s stated policy is to settle the debt component of the Convertible Notes due 2025 at least partially or wholly in cash. This policy is based both on the Company’s intent and its ability to settle these instruments in cash.

The Company has separately accounted for the liability and equity components of the Convertible Notes due 2025 by allocating the proceeds from issuance of the Convertible Notes due 2025 between the liability component and the embedded conversion option, or equity component. This allocation was done by first estimating an interest rate at the time of issuance for similar notes that do not include the embedded conversion option. The Company allocated $61,936 to the equity component, net of offering costs of $1,982 and taxes of $6,634. The Company recorded a discount on the Convertible Notes due 2025 of $70,552 which will be accreted and recorded as additional interest expense over the life of the Convertible Notes due 2025.

Amended Credit Agreement

The credit agreement under which the Company's revolving credit facility was issued (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) includes certain financial covenants and, as of September 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with these requirements.

See “Note 14—Net Income (Loss) Per Share” for further discussion of the effect of conversion on net income per share.

10.Fair Value Measurements
  
The following tables set forth the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, based on the three-tier fair value hierarchy:

Deferred compensation liability8,208 8,208 — — 
Total liabilities$17,253 $8,208 $— $9,045 
 
The fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities related to certain of the Company's acquisitions were estimated using a discounted cash flow method with significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represents a Level III fair value measurement as defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” The significant inputs in the Company's Level III fair value measurement not supported by market activity included its assessments of expected future cash flows related to these acquisitions and their ability to meet the target performance objectives during the subsequent periods from the date of acquisition, which management believes are appropriately discounted considering the uncertainties associated with these obligations, and are calculated in accordance with the terms of their respective agreements.

The Company will continue to reassess the fair values of the contingent consideration liabilities at each reporting date until settlement. Changes to these estimated fair values will be recognized in the Company's earnings and included in general and administration expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The table below presents a reconciliation of the Company's contingent consideration liabilities, which were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level III) for the period from December 31, 2019 to September 30, 2020: 
 Fair Value of Contingent Consideration Liabilities

The table below presents a reconciliation of the assets used to fund deferred the Company's deferred compensation liability, which is measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level III) for the period from December 31, 2019 to September 30, 2020:
 Fair Value of Assets to Fund Deferred Compensation Liability
Balance at December 31, 2019$8,390 
Contributions1,060 
Fair value adjustments(59)
Balance at September 30, 2020$9,391 
 
The fair market value of the assets used to fund the Company's deferred compensation liability is based upon the cash surrender value of the Company's life insurance premiums. The value of the assets used to fund the Company's deferred compensation liability, which are included in other non-current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, increased due to funding of the plan, partially offset by losses on the underlying investment vehicles. These losses are recognized in the Company's earnings and included in general and administration expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company assesses the categorization of assets and liabilities by level at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the actual date of the event or when changes in circumstances caused the transfer, in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy regarding the recognition of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers between Levels I, II and III during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Fair Value of Debt Agreements and Other Financial Assets and Liabilities
 
The Company considered the Convertible Notes due 2023 and the Convertible Notes due 2025 to be Level II liabilities at September 30, 2020 and used a market approach to calculate their respective fair values. The estimated fair value for each convertible note was determined based on estimated or actual bids and offers in an over-the-counter market on September 30, 2020 (See “Note 9—Debt”).

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying value of the Convertible Notes due 2023 equaled $313,823 and $305,513, respectively, and represented the aggregate principal amount outstanding less the unamortized discount and debt issuance costs. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the estimated fair value of the Convertible Notes due 2023 was $442,104 and $414,852, respectively.

As of September 30, 2020, the carrying value of the Convertible Notes due 2025 equaled $436,095, and represented the aggregate principal amount outstanding less the unamortized discount and debt issuance costs. As of September 30, 2020, the estimated fair value of the Convertible Notes due 2025 was $520,486.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there was $0 and $260,000, respectively, outstanding on the revolving credit facility under the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company considered the revolving credit facility to be a Level I liability as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 (See “Note 9—Debt”).

The Company considered the recorded value of our other financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, to approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities at September 30, 2020 based upon the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.

Contract Balances

Total deferred revenue as of September 30, 2020 increased by $1,837 during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily the result of revenue growth, timing of cash receipts and revenue recognition. The majority of the Company's deferred revenue will be recognized over the course of the next twelve months.

The amount of revenue recognized that was included in the opening deferred revenue balance was $5,209 and $4,434 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The amount of revenue recognized that was included in the opening deferred revenue balance was $31,038 and $21,022 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The majority of this revenue consists of subscription-based services and professional services arrangements. The amount of revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied in prior periods was not material.

Deferred Sales Incentive Compensation

Deferred sales incentive compensation was $10,326 and $9,387 as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units
 
The Company has granted restricted stock units and performance-based stock units to employees that are unvested. Performance-based stock units vest upon the achievement of certain pre-established business and financial metrics as well as a subsequent service condition. The business and financial metrics governing the vesting of these performance-based stock units provide thresholds that dictate the number of shares to vest upon each evaluation date, which range from 50% to 150%. If these metrics are achieved, as defined in the individual grant terms, these shares would cliff vest three years from the grant date.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
 For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company’s effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the change in the valuation allowance the Company has placed on a portion of its US deferred tax assets and the impact of state and local taxes, partially offset by permanent book-tax differences, the windfall from stock-based compensation, the impact of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) related to net operating loss carryback, and federal and state research and development (“R&D”) credits.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company's effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the windfall from stock-based compensation, the executive compensation deduction limitation, additional accruals for uncertain tax positions and differences between the foreign tax rates and statutory US tax rate.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company's effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the release of the Company's valuation allowance of $21,907 as a result of additional deferred tax liabilities recorded from the PIEtech acquisition, the windfall from stock-based compensation, federal and state R&D credits and additional accruals for uncertain tax positions.

The Company's total gross liability for unrecognized tax benefits, exclusive of interest and penalties, was $20,782 and $18,939 at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Of this amount, a portion of the unrecognized tax benefits was recorded as a reduction of deferred tax assets instead of a non-current liability. The portion of the unrecognized tax benefits, exclusive of interest and penalties, recorded as a non-current liability was $7,149 and $6,504 at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
 
At September 30, 2020, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, that would benefit the Company's effective tax rate, if recognized, was $15,683. The Company estimates that the liability for unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $10,690 in the next twelve months as it is anticipated that reviews by tax authorities will be completed.

The Company recognizes potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. These amounts were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company had accrued interest and penalties of $8,773 and $7,336 as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

14.Net Income (Loss) Per Share
 
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. For the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share, the basic weighted average number of shares is increased by the dilutive effect of stock options, common warrants, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and convertible notes using the treasury stock method, if dilutive. 
The Company accounts for the effect of its convertible notes (See “Note 9—Debt”) on diluted net income per share using the treasury stock method since they may be settled in cash, shares or a combination thereof at the Company’s option. As a result, the Convertible Notes due 2023 and Convertible Notes due 2025 will have no effect on diluted net income per share until the Company’s stock price exceeds the conversion price of $68.31 per share and $106.74 per share, respectively, and certain other criteria are met, or if the trading price of the convertible notes meets certain criteria. In the period of conversion, the convertible notes will have no impact on diluted net income per share if they are settled in cash and will have an impact on dilutive net income per share if they are settled in shares upon conversion.

17.Commitments and Contingencies
 
Purchase Obligations and Indemnifications
 
The Company includes various types of indemnification and guarantee clauses in certain arrangements. These indemnifications and guarantees may include, but are not limited to, infringement claims related to intellectual property, direct or consequential damages and guarantees to certain service providers and service level requirements with certain customers. The type and amount of any potential indemnification or guarantee varies substantially based on the nature of each arrangement. The Company has experienced no previous claims and cannot determine the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, related to such indemnification and guarantee provisions. The Company believes that it is unlikely it will have to make material payments under these arrangements and therefore has not recorded a contingent liability associated with these arrangements in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
 
The Company enters into unconditional purchase obligations arrangements for certain of its services that it receives in the normal course of business.

Del.). FinancialApps alleges that, after entering into a 2017 services agreement with Yodlee, Envestnet and Yodlee breached the agreement and misappropriated proprietary information to develop competing credit risk assessment software. The complaint includes claims for, among other things, misappropriation of trade secrets, fraud, tortious interference with prospective business opportunities, unfair competition, copyright infringement and breach of contract. FinancialApps is seeking significant monetary damages and various equitable and injunctive relief. 

On September 17, 2019, the Company and Yodlee filed a motion to dismiss certain of the claims in the complaint filed by FinancialApps, including the copyright infringement, unfair competition and fraud claims. On August 25, 2020, the District Court granted in part and denied in part the Company and Yodlee’s motion. Specifically, the Company and Yodlee prevailed on FinancialApps’ counts alleging copyright infringement and violations of the Illinois Deceptive Trade Practices Act. And while the Court was receptive to Envestnet and Yodlee’s argument that several of FinancialApps’ other counts are based on allegations that amount to copyright infringement—and therefore should fail due to copyright preemption—the Court found that FinancialApps had alleged enough conduct distinct from copyright infringement to survive dismissal at this early stage.

On October 30, 2019, the Company and Yodlee filed counterclaims against FinancialApps. Yodlee alleges that FinancialApps fraudulently induced it to enter into contracts with FinancialApps, then breached those contracts. FinancialApps has filed a motion to dismiss Yodlee’s counterclaims. On September 15, 2020, the District Court denied FinancialApps’ motion on all counts except for the breach-of-contract claim which was dismissed on a pleading technicality without prejudice. On that count, the Court granted Yodlee leave to amend its counterclaim, cure the technical deficiency, and reassert its claim. Yodlee and Envestnet filed amended counterclaims on September 30, 2020. The amended counterclaims (1) cure that technical deficiency and reassert Yodlee’s contract counterclaim; and (2) broaden the defamation counterclaims arising out of various

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
defamatory statements FinancialApps disseminated in the trade press after filing the lawsuit. The Company believes FinancialApps’s allegations are without merit and intends to defend the action and litigate the counterclaims vigorously.

The Company and Yodlee were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit filed on August 25, 2020, by Plaintiff Deborah Wesch in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. On October 21, 2020, an amended class action complaint was filed by Plaintiff Wesch and nine additional named plaintiffs. The case caption is Deborah Wesch, et al., v. Yodlee, Inc., et al., Case No. 3:20-cv-05991-SK. Plaintiffs allege that Yodlee unlawfully collected their financial transaction data when plaintiffs linked their bank accounts to a mobile application that uses Yodlee’s API, and plaintiffs further allege that Yodlee unlawfully sold the transaction data to third parties. The complaint alleges violations of certain California statutes and common law, including the Unfair Competition Law, and federal statutes, including the Stored Communications Act. Plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages and equitable and injunctive relief on behalf of themselves and a putative nationwide class and California subclass of persons who provided their log-in credentials to a Yodlee-powered app in an allegedly similar manner from 2014 to the present. The Company believes that it is not properly named as a defendant in the lawsuit and it further believes, along with Yodlee, that plaintiffs’ claims are without merit. On November 4, 2020, the Company and Yodlee filed separate motions to dismiss all of the claims in the complaint, and they intend to vigorously defend the lawsuit.

In addition, the Company is involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. Legal fees and other costs associated with such actions are expensed as incurred. The Company will record a provision for these claims when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss, or a range of the potential loss, can be reasonably estimated. These provisions are reviewed regularly and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information or events pertaining to a particular case. For litigation matters where a loss may be reasonably possible, but not probable, or is probable but not reasonably estimable, no accrual is established, but if the matter is material, it is subject to disclosures. The Company believes that liabilities associated with any claims, while possible, are not probable, and therefore has not recorded an accrual for any claims as of September 30, 2020. Further, while any possible range of loss cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, the Company does not believe that the outcome of any of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, would, if determined adversely to it, have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or business, although an adverse resolution of legal proceedings could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations or cash flow in a particular quarter or year.
 
Contingencies  
 
Certain of the Company’s revenues are subject to sales and use taxes in certain jurisdictions where it conducts business in the United States. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company estimated a sales and use tax liability of $7,729 and $10,220, respectively, related to revenues in multiple jurisdictions. This amount is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company also estimated a sales and use tax receivable of $1,825 and $3,346, respectively, related to the estimated recoverability of a portion of the liability from customers. This amount is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Additional future information obtained from the applicable jurisdictions may affect the Company's estimate of its sales and use tax liability, but such change in the estimate cannot currently be made.

Recent Developments

Uncertainties Related to COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic disease. We are closely monitoring developments with the COVID-19 pandemic and are taking proactive measures to ensure business continuity. Our priority is to protect the well-being of our employees, while we continue to provide uninterrupted service and support to our clients. As part of our existing business continuity protocol, we created a pandemic steering committee that meets regularly and communicates information or guidance to our employees and customers.

We have instituted travel bans and are following mandatory stay-at-home orders where applicable. A majority of our employees are working from home as a result of these mandatory stay-at-home orders. Where permissible, we have also implemented in-office work rotations. For employees working at our offices, preventative measures have been taken, including the adapting of work spaces to allow for appropriate social distancing and enhanced cleaning regimens. We also canceled our 2020 annual Advisor Summit Conference, which was set to take place in May 2020. We continue to monitor developments related to COVID-19 and, as the situation evolves, will continue to coordinate our operations response based on existing business continuity plans and on guidance from global health organizations, relevant governments and general response pandemic best practices.

At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, significant declines occurred within the equity markets. This is significant to us as we provide asset-based, subscription-based and professional services on a business-to-business-to-consumer basis to financial services clients, whereby customers offer solutions based on our platform to their end users. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, approximately 55% and 54% of our revenues resulted from asset-based fee billing arrangements. Asset-based recurring revenues primarily consisted of fees for providing customers access to our platforms. These fees are generally based upon variable percentages of assets managed or administered under our platforms. Our fee percentages vary based on the level and type of services that we provide to our customers, as well as the values of existing customer accounts. The values of our customer accounts are affected by inflows or outflows of customer funds and market fluctuations. Approximately 90% of our asset-based fee arrangements are billed at the beginning of each quarter based on the market value of customer assets on our platforms as of the end of the prior quarter.

As a result of the structure of our revenue arrangements and our customer-types, our revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2020 were not materially impacted by COVID-19. While we experienced a decrease to our asset-based revenues in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2020 as a result of the decline in the equity markets as of March 31, 2020, our asset-based revenues were minimally impacted in the third quarter of 2020 as the equity markets generally
31


recovered to pre-pandemic levels as of June 30, 2020 and have continued to remain stable. We have experienced no business interruptions, nor did we lose any significant customers as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, approximately 43% of revenues were subscription-based. These revenues primarily consisted of fees for providing customers continuous access to our platforms. These subscription-based fees generally include fixed fees or usage-based fees. These fees vary based on the services being offered. Our subscription-based fee arrangements are typically established through multi-year contracts.

In the event that the equity markets fall again as a result of COVID-19 or for any other reason, our revenues will be negatively impacted. Based on our most recent internal forecasts and other qualitative factors, we have determined that we currently have no impairments to our assets as of September 30, 2020. We have also not modified our revolving credit agreement in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic.

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law.  One provision of the CARES Act provides a five-year carryback of net operating losses (“NOLs”) generated in tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2021. We estimate a refund of approximately $1,200 from the carryback of NOLs. 

Investment in Private Services Company

On January 8, 2020, we acquired a 4.25% membership interest in a private services company for cash consideration of $11,000. The private services company partners with independent network advisory firms to help them grow, become more profitable and run more efficiently. We account for this investment under the equity method basis of accounting.

Acquisition of Private Technology Company

On February 18, 2020, through our wholly owned subsidiary Yodlee, Inc. (“Yodlee”), we acquired a private technology company (the “Private Technology Company Acquisition”). The private technology company enables the consent generation and data flow between financial information providers, such as banks and financial institutions, and financial information users, such as financial technology lenders and other financial services agencies, through a network of cloud-based interoperable interfaces or application programming interfaces. The technology and operations of the private technology company have been integrated into our Envestnet Data & Analytics segment.

In connection with the Private Technology Company Acquisition, we acquired all of the outstanding shares and paid cash consideration of $2,343, net of cash acquired, subject to certain closing and post-closing adjustments, plus up to an additional $6,750 in contingent consideration, based upon achieving certain performance targets. We recorded a liability as of the date of acquisition of approximately $5,239, which represented the estimated fair value of contingent consideration on the date of acquisition.

In June 2020, we determined that certain performance targets for this acquisition would not be met. As a result, we reduced the contingent consideration liability plus accrued interest associated with this acquisition by $1,982 and recorded this as a reduction to general and administration expenses. In September 2020, we further reduced the contingent consideration liability associated with this acquisition by an immaterial amount. Future changes to the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration, if any, will be recognized in our earnings.

We recorded estimated goodwill of $7,017, which is not deductible for income tax purposes, and estimated identifiable intangible assets for proprietary technologies of $1,000. The tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were not material.

Acquisition of Private Cloud Technology Company

On March 2, 2020, we acquired certain assets of a private cloud technology company (the “Private Cloud Technology Company Acquisition”). The private cloud technology company enables enterprises to design and implement the digital transition from legacy systems and applications to a modern cloud computing platform. The technology and operations of the private cloud technology company have been integrated into our Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment.

In connection with the Private Cloud Technology Company Acquisition, we paid estimated consideration of $11,968, net of cash acquired. In connection with the acquisition, we recorded estimated goodwill of $10,932, which is deductible for income tax purposes. The tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were not material.

32


Acquisition of Private Financial Technology Design Company

On March 3, 2020, we acquired the outstanding units of a private financial technology design company that were not owned by the Company and merged the acquired company into a wholly owned subsidiary of ours (the “Private Financial Technology Design Company Acquisition”). The private financial technology design company designs integrated, intuitive digital technology applications for institutional financial services firms, bank wealth management organizations, independent advisor networks, and broker-dealers. The technology and operations of the private financial technology design company have been integrated into our Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment.

We previously owned approximately 45% of the outstanding units in this private financial technology design company, and accounted for it as an equity method investment. Based upon the estimated value of the private financial technology design company of $11,026, we paid estimated consideration of $5,946, net of cash acquired, for the remaining outstanding units. As a result of the acquisition, we recognized a gain of $4,230 on the re-measurement to fair value of its previously held interest, which is included in other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations
In connection with the Private Financial Technology Design Company Acquisition, we recorded estimated total goodwill of $9,241, of which approximately $6,658 is deductible for income tax purposes, and estimated identifiable intangible assets for proprietary technologies of $2,000. The tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were not material.

Private Offering of Convertible Notes due 2025

In August 2020, we issued $517,500 of convertible notes maturing on August 15, 2025 ("Convertible Notes due 2025"). Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $503,000. The Convertible Notes due 2025 bear interest at a rate of 0.75 percent per annum payable semiannually in arrears in cash on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on February 15, 2021.

The Convertible Notes due 2025 are general unsecured obligations, subordinated in right of payment to our obligations under our revolving credit facility. The Convertible Notes due 2025 are convertible into shares of our common stock under certain circumstances prior to maturity at a conversion rate of 9.3682 shares per one thousand principal amount of the Convertible Notes due 2025, which represents a conversion price of $106.74 per share, subject to adjustment under certain conditions. See “Part I, Note 9—Debt, Convertible Notes due 2025” for more details regarding the issuance of these convertible notes.

Early Retirement Program

In the fourth quarter of 2019, we offered a voluntary early retirement program (the “Early Retirement Program”) to employees over a certain age, who have a combined age and years of experience with the Company of at least 65 years. Employees had until January 31, 2020 to voluntarily accept the program with separation of service no later than March 31, 2020. In connection with this program, we have recorded approximately $12,000 of severance expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, we have accrued approximately $868 in accrued compensation and related taxes and $2,336 recorded in other non-current liabilities. These payments will extend through 2030. As of December 31, 2019, we accrued approximately $1,733 in accrued compensation and related taxes and $599 recorded in other non-current liabilities.

Executive Leadership Appointments

On October 3, 2019, Jud Bergman, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, died in an automobile accident. At that time, Bill Crager, President of Envestnet and Chief Executive of Envestnet Wealth Solutions, was named our interim Chief Executive Officer, and Ross Chapin, our lead independent director, was named interim non-executive Chairman of our Board of Directors (the “Board”). On March 30, 2020, Mr. Crager was named Chief Executive Officer of Envestnet and a member of the Board and Stuart DePina, whom has served as Chief Executive of Envestnet Data & Analytics since January 2019, was named President of Envestnet. James Fox, a current member of our Board, was named Chairman of the Board.

Asset and account figures in the “Reclass to Subscription” columns for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 represent enterprise customers whose billing arrangements in future periods are subscription-based, rather than asset-based. Such amounts are included in Subscription metrics at the end of the quarter in which the reclassification occurred, with no impact on total platform assets or accounts. Periodically clients choose to change the way they pay for our solution, whereby they switch from an asset-based pricing model to a subscription-based model, which has increased our subscription-based metrics.

These FinApps help consumers and small businesses simplify and manage their finances, review their financial accounts, track their spending, calculate their net worth, and perform a variety of other activities. For example, Yodlee Expense and Income Analysis FinApp helps consumers track their spending, and a Payroll FinApp from a third party helps small businesses process their payroll. The suite of reports is designed to supplement traditional credit reports by utilizing consumer permissioned aggregated data from over 17,000 sources, including banking, investment, loan and credit card information.

The Yodlee Interactive group enables customers to develop new applications and enhance existing solutions. These customers operate in a number of sub-vertical markets, including wealth management, personal financial management, small business accounting, small business lending and authentication. They use the Envestnet Data & Analytics platform to build solutions that leverage our open APIs and provide access to a large end user base. In addition to aggregated transaction-level account data elements, we provide YI customers with secure access to account verification, money movement and risk assessment tools via our APIs.

Asset-based recurring revenues increased 9% from $126,591 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $137,744 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in asset values applicable to our quarterly billing cycles in the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, the impact of new account growth and positive net flows of AUM/A in the third quarter of 2020.

Professional services and other revenues
 
Professional services and other revenues decreased 22% from $8,906 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $6,918 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to timing of the completion of customer projects and deployments.

Cost of revenues
 
Cost of revenues increased 9% from $71,870 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $78,545 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in asset-based cost of revenues of $6,794, directly correlated with the increase to asset-based recurring revenues during the period. As a percentage of total revenues, cost of revenues increased from 30% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to 31% in three months ended September 30, 2020.

Compensation and benefits

Compensation and benefits remained consistent from $95,587 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $94,428 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. Decreases in salary, benefits and related payroll taxes of $4,878 were offset by increased incentive compensation of $2,096, non-cash compensation expense of $1,206 and other miscellaneous increases. As a percentage of total revenues, compensation and benefits decreased from 40% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to 37% in the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to lower healthcare related expenses and increased capitalized labor costs related to internally developed software in the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the prior year period.

General and administration
 
General and administration expenses decreased 7% from $42,016 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $38,979 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in travel and entertainment of $4,299, occupancy costs of $1,729 and marketing expense of $1,269. These decreases were partially offset by increases in non-income tax expense of $1,433, system development costs of $1,284 and trade errors expense of $1,231. As a percentage of total revenues, general and administration expenses decreased from 18% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to 15% in the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to decreased travel and entertainment expense as a result of actions taken by the Company as a result of COVID-19.

Depreciation and amortization
 
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 8% from $26,735 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $28,951 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in internally developed software amortization expense of $2,300. As a percentage of total revenues, depreciation and amortization expense remained consistent at 11% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2020.

Other expense, net

Other expense, net decreased 10% from $9,813 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $8,836 in the three months ended September 30, 2020.

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, our effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the decrease in the valuation allowance we had placed on a portion of US deferred tax assets and the impact of state and local taxes, partially offset by permanent book-tax differences, the windfall from stock-based compensation, the impact of the CARES Act related to net operating loss carryback, and federal and state research and development (“R&D”) credits.

The increase was primarily due to an increase in asset values applicable to our quarterly billing cycles in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, due to the impact of new account growth and positive net flows of AUM/A in the first nine months of 2020.

The increase in the Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment was primarily due to the 2019 Acquisitions, which contributed incremental revenues of $27,529 to subscription-based recurring revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The remaining increase of $8,530 within the Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment is a result of growth from new and existing customers.

Professional services and other revenues decreased 23% from $28,668 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $22,183 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Compensation and benefits increased 5% from $285,590 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $300,423 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to increases in severance expense of $10,421, non-cash compensation expense of $2,481 and short-term incentive compensation of $1,266. The increase in severance expense is primarily related to charges connected with the Early Retirement Program that was offered to eligible employees through January 31, 2020. The 2019 Acquisitions contributed compensation and benefit expenses of $14,339 and $22,165 to total compensation and benefits expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively.

General and administration expenses decreased 5% from $124,961 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $118,537 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in travel and entertainment expense of $9,129, occupancy costs of $2,829, marketing expenses of $2,443, a decrease of $2,056 to contingent consideration liability related to fair value adjustments and professional and legal fees of $1,095. These decreases were partially offset by increases in system development costs of $3,431, trade errors expense of $3,045, litigation and regulatory related expenses of $1,380, miscellaneous general and administration expense of $1,278 and bad debt expense of $1,080. The 2019 Acquisitions contributed general and administration expenses of $6,442 and $4,878 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 16% from $73,167 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $85,077 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Other expense, net decreased 20% from $23,088 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $18,546 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a gain of $4,230 recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2020 on the remeasurement of our previously held interest in the private financial technology design company combined with a gain of $2,524 recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2020 as a result of a fair value adjustment upon settlement of our former Chief Executive Officer's stock options, partially offset by increased losses recorded for our equity method investees in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to nine months ended September 30, 2019.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, our effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the increase in the valuation allowance we had placed on a portion of US deferred tax assets and the impact of state and local taxes, partially offset by permanent book-tax differences, the windfall from stock-based compensation, the impact of the CARES Act related to net operating loss carryback, and R&D credits.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the release of our valuation allowance of $21,907 as a result of additional deferred tax liabilities recorded from the PIEtech Acquisition, the windfall from stock-based compensation, federal and state R&D credits, executive compensation deduction limitation and additional accruals for uncertain tax positions.

Asset-based recurring revenues
 
Asset-based recurring revenues increased 9% from $126,591 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $137,744 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in asset values applicable to our quarterly billing cycles in the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, due to the impact of new account growth and positive net flows of AUM/A in the third quarter of 2020.

Subscription-based recurring revenues increased 9% from $57,353 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $62,783 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to growth from new and existing customers.
 
Professional services and other revenues
 
Professional services and other revenues decreased 12% from $4,280 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $3,767 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to timing of the completion of customer projects and deployments.

Cost of revenues
 
Cost of revenues increased 10% from $65,752 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $72,435 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in asset-based cost of revenues of $6,794, directly correlated with the increase to asset-based recurring revenues during the period. As a percentage of total revenues, cost of revenues remained consistent at 35% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2020.
 
Compensation and benefits
 
Compensation and benefits decreased 2% from $60,836 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $59,522 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in salaries, benefits and related payroll taxes of $2,300, partially offset by an increase in severance expense of $1,075. As a percentage of total revenues, compensation and benefits decreased from 32% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to 29% in the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to decreased salaries, benefits and related taxes due to increased capitalized labor costs related to internally developed software and lower healthcare related expenses for three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019.

General and administration
 
General and administration expenses decreased 13% from $25,476 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $22,248 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in travel and entertainment expense of $2,771, restructuring charges and transaction costs of $1,531 and marketing expense of $1,117. These decreases were partially offset by increases in non-income tax expense of $1,553 and trade errors expense of $1,231. As a percentage of total revenues, general and administration expenses decreased from 14% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to 11% in the three months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to decreased travel and entertainment expense as a result of actions taken by the Company as a result of COVID-19.
 
Depreciation and amortization
 
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 11% from $18,414 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 to $20,406 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in internally developed software amortization expense of $2,002 and an increase in property and equipment depreciation expense of $586, partially offset by a decrease in intangible asset amortization expense of $595. As a percentage of revenues, depreciation and amortization expense remained consistent at 10% in the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2020.

Asset-based recurring revenues increased 11% from $355,595 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $394,801 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in asset values applicable to our quarterly billing cycles in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, due to the impact of new account growth and positive net flows of AUM/A in the first nine months of 2020.

The number of financial advisors with asset-based recurring revenue on our technology platforms increased from 39,735 as of September 30, 2019 to 41,450 as of September 30, 2020 and the number of AUM/A client accounts increased from approximately 2,100,000 as of September 30, 2019 to approximately 2,300,000 as of September 30, 2020.

Subscription-based recurring revenues increased 24% from $148,457 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $184,516 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

The 2019 Acquisitions contributed incremental revenues of $27,529 to subscription-based recurring revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The remaining increase of $8,530 is a result of growth from new and existing customers.
 
Professional services and other revenues
 
Professional services and other revenues decreased 20% from $13,767 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $11,082 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in revenues as a result of the cancellation of our 2020 Advisor Summit.

Cost of revenues
 
Cost of revenues increased 9% from $187,857 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $205,338 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in asset-based cost of revenues of $23,126, directly correlated with the increase to asset-based recurring revenues during the period. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in professional services and other cost of revenues of $4,964, primarily a result of the cancellation of our 2020 Advisor Summit. The 2019 Acquisitions had an immaterial impact to cost of revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. As a percentage of total revenues, cost of revenues decreased from 36% in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to 35% in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
 
Compensation and benefits
 
Compensation and benefits increased 18% from $165,610 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $194,906 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase is primarily due to increases in severance expense of $12,351, salaries, benefits and related payroll taxes of $7,439, incentive compensation of $5,350 and non-cash compensation expense of $3,852. The increase in severance expense is primarily related to charges in connection with the Early Retirement Program during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The 2019 Acquisitions contributed compensation and benefit expenses of $14,339 and $22,165 to total compensation and benefits expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively. As a percentage of total revenues, compensation and benefits increased from 32% in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to 33% in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

General and administration expenses decreased 3% from $71,326 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $69,358 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in travel and entertainment expenses of $5,772, marketing expense of $2,196, professional and legal fees of $1,558 and occupancy costs of $1,251. These
44


decreases were partially offset by increases in trade errors expense of $3,000, systems development costs of $2,529 and restructuring charges and transaction costs of $1,100. The 2019 Acquisitions contributed general and administration expenses of $6,442 and $4,835 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively. As a percentage of total revenues, general and administration expenses decreased from 14% in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to 12% in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased 30% from $46,057 in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to $59,907 in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in intangible asset amortization expense of $7,633, the direct result of amortizing additional intangible assets related to our 2019 Acquisitions, an increase in internally developed software amortization expense of $3,188 and an increase in property and equipment depreciation expense of $2,229. As a percentage of revenues, depreciation and amortization expense increased from 9% in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to 10% in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting results according to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we also disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures to enhance the understanding of our operating performance. Those measures include “adjusted revenues,” “adjusted net revenues,” “adjusted EBITDA,” “adjusted net income” and “adjusted net income per share.”

“Adjusted revenues” excludes the effect of purchase accounting on the fair value of acquired deferred revenue. Under GAAP, we record at fair value the acquired deferred revenue for contracts in effect at the time the entities were acquired. Consequently, revenue related to acquired entities for periods subsequent to the acquisition does not reflect the full amount of revenue that would have been recorded by these entities had they remained stand-alone entities.

“Adjusted net revenues” represents adjusted revenues less asset-based cost of revenues. Under GAAP, we are required to recognize as revenue certain fees paid to investment managers and other third parties needed for implementation of investment solutions included in our assets under management. Those fees also are required to be recorded as cost of revenues. This non-GAAP metric presents adjusted revenues without such fees included, as they have no impact on our profitability. Adjusted revenues and Adjusted net revenues have limitations as financial measures, should be considered as supplemental in nature and are not meant as a substitute for revenue prepared in accordance with GAAP. 

“Adjusted EBITDA” represents net income before deferred revenue fair value adjustment, interest income, interest expense, accretion on contingent consideration and purchase liability, income tax provision (benefit), depreciation and amortization, non-cash compensation expense, restructuring charges and transaction costs, severance, fair market value adjustment on contingent consideration liability, litigation and regulatory related expenses, foreign currency, non-income tax expense adjustment, gain on acquisition of equity method investment, loss allocation from equity method investments and (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interest.
 
“Adjusted net income” represents net income before deferred revenue fair value adjustment, accretion on contingent consideration and purchase liability, non-cash interest expense, non-cash compensation expense, restructuring charges and transaction costs, severance, fair market value adjustment on contingent consideration liability, amortization of acquired intangibles, litigation and regulatory related expenses, foreign currency, non-income tax expense adjustment, gain on acquisition of equity method investment, loss allocation from equity method investments and (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interest. Reconciling items are presented gross of tax, and a normalized tax rate is applied to the total of all reconciling items to arrive at adjusted net income. The normalized tax rate is based solely on the estimated blended statutory income tax rates in the jurisdictions in which we operate. We monitor the normalized tax rate based on events or trends that could materially impact the rate, including tax legislation changes and changes in the geographic mix of our operations.
 
“Adjusted net income per share” represents adjusted net income attributable to common stockholders divided by the diluted number of weighted-average shares outstanding.
 
Our Board and management use these non-GAAP financial measures:
 
As measures of operating performance;
For planning purposes, including the preparation of annual budgets;
To allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business;
To evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies; and
In communications with our Board concerning our financial performance.

Our Compensation Committee, our Board and our management may also consider adjusted EBITDA, among other factors, when determining management’s incentive compensation.
 
We also present adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share as supplemental performance measures because we believe that they provide our Board, management and investors with additional information to assess our performance. Adjusted revenues provide comparisons from period to period
48


by excluding the effect of purchase accounting on the fair value of acquired deferred revenue. Adjusted net revenues provide comparisons from period to period by excluding the effects of asset-based cost of revenues. While the amounts included in the calculation of adjusted net revenues are disclosed in our condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes, management believes providing more transparency into this metric is beneficial to investors who wish to evaluate our performance in this fashion. Adjusted EBITDA provides comparisons from period to period by excluding potential differences caused by variations in the age and book depreciation of fixed assets affecting relative depreciation expense and amortization of internally developed software, amortization of acquired intangible assets, deferred revenue fair value adjustment, income tax provision (benefit), non-income tax expense, restructuring charges and transaction costs, accretion on contingent consideration and purchase liability, severance, fair market value adjustment on contingent consideration liability, litigation and regulatory related expenses, foreign currency, gain on acquisition of equity method investment, loss allocation from equity method investments, (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interest, and changes in interest expense and interest income that are influenced by capital structure decisions and capital market conditions. Our management also believes it is useful to exclude non-cash stock-based compensation expense from adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income because non-cash equity grants made at a certain price and point in time do not necessarily reflect how our business is performing at any particular time.
 
We believe adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts use adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share as supplemental measures to evaluate the overall performance of companies, and we anticipate that our investor and analyst presentations will include adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share.
 
Adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are not measurements of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to revenues, net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of our profitability or liquidity.
 
We understand that, although adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are frequently used by securities analysts and others in their evaluation of companies, these measures have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. In particular you should consider:
 
Adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

Adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

Adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share do not reflect non-cash components of employee compensation;

Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized often will have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;

Due to either net losses before income tax expense or the use of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, we made net tax payments of $5,349 and $7,826 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. In the event that we begin to generate taxable income and our existing net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state income taxes have been fully utilized or have expired, income tax payments will be higher; and

Other companies in our industry may calculate adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.

Management compensates for the inherent limitations associated with using adjusted revenues, adjusted net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share through disclosure of such limitations, presentation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP and reconciliation of adjusted revenues and adjusted net revenues to revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP measure and adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share to net income and net income per share, the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Further, our management also

(1)For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the effective tax rate computed in accordance with GAAP equaled 17.6% and 70.2%, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the effective tax rate computed in accordance with GAAP equaled 1.5% and 60.5%, respectively.
(2)An estimated normalized effective tax rate of 25.5% has been used to compute adjusted net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

Note on Income Taxes: As of December 31, 2019, we had NOL carryforwards of approximately $261,000 and $211,000 for federal and state income tax purposes, respectively, available to reduce future income subject to income taxes. As a result, the amount of actual cash taxes we pay for federal, state and foreign income taxes differs significantly from the effective income tax rate computed in accordance with GAAP, and from the normalized rate shown above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of September 30, 2020, we had total cash and cash equivalents of $362,918 compared to $82,505 as of December 31, 2019. In August 2020, we issued $517,500 of convertible notes that mature on August 15, 2025. See “Part I, Note 9—Debt, Convertible Notes due 2025” for more details regarding the issuance of these convertible notes. With the proceeds from this convertible note issuance, we repaid the outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility of $150,000.

We plan to use existing cash, cash generated in the ongoing operations of our business and amounts under our revolving credit facility to fund our current operations, capital expenditures and possible acquisitions or other strategic activity, and to meet our debt service obligations. If the cash generated in the ongoing operations of our business is insufficient to fund these requirements, we may be required to borrow under our revolving credit facility or incur additional debt to fund our ongoing operations or to fund potential acquisitions or other strategic activities. 

As of September 30, 2020, we had $500,000 available to borrow under our revolving credit facility, subject to covenant compliance.

Cash Flows
 
The following table presents information regarding our cash flows and cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash for the periods indicated:

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period363,066 71,882 
 
Operating Activities
 
Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $131,679 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $61,845 for the same period in 2019. The increase was primarily due to:

A decrease in net losses period over period of $10,281;
A decrease in deferred taxes period over period of $37,705 primarily due to the 2019 reversal of a valuation allowance on certain of our deferred tax assets;
An increase period over period for noncash addbacks for depreciation and amortization expense of $11,910; and
An increase in the change in operating assets and liabilities of $12,129 which is primarily timing related.

These increases were partially offset by a non-cash gain of $2,056 related to fair market value adjustments to an outstanding contingent consideration liability.
 
Investing Activities
 
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $83,213 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $364,518 for the same period in 2019. The change was primarily a result of a decrease in cash disbursements for business acquisitions of $301,314. In January 2020, we also used $11,000 to acquire a 4.25% interest in a privately held company. In 2020, we have also capitalized an additional $16,608 of internally developed software costs as compared to the same period in 2019.
 
Financing Activities
 
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $232,854 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $85,062 for the same period in 2019. In August 2020, we received net proceeds of approximately $503,000 from the issuance of convertible debt. With these proceeds, we paid off the outstanding balance of our revolving credit facility. On a year over year basis, our net revolver activity resulted in an additional $360,000 of cash outflows.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires us to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. “Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Form 10-K describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Our critical accounting estimates, identified in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7 of our 2019 Form 10-K include, but are not limited to, the discussion of estimates used for recognition of revenues, the determination of the period of benefit for deferred sales incentive commissions, purchase accounting, impairment of goodwill and acquired intangible assets and income taxes. Such accounting policies and estimates require significant judgments and assumptions to be used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and actual results could differ materially from the amounts reported.

Legal Proceedings
 
See “Part I, Note 17—Commitments and Contingencies, Legal Proceedings” for legal proceedings details.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
Market Risk
 
Our exposure to market risk is directly related to asset-based recurring revenues earned based upon a contractual percentage of AUM or AUA. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, 55% and 54% of our revenues, respectively, were derived from revenues based on the market value of AUM or AUA. We expect this percentage to vary over time. A decrease in the aggregate value of AUM or AUA may cause our revenue to decline and our net loss to increase. If there are financial market declines for COVID-19 or any other matter, our asset-based revenues may negatively be impacted in future periods.

Foreign Currency Risk
 
A portion of our revenues are billed in various foreign currencies. We are directly exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates through the translation of these monthly revenues into U.S. dollars. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we estimate that a hypothetical 10% change in the value of various foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar would result in a corresponding increase or decrease of approximately $451 and $1,377 to pre-tax earnings, respectively.

The expenses of our India subsidiary, which primarily consist of expenditures related to compensation and benefits, are paid using the Indian Rupee. We are directly exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates through the translation of these monthly expenditures into U.S. dollars. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we estimate that a hypothetical 10% increase in the value of the Indian Rupee to the U.S. dollar would result in a decrease of approximately $1,503 and $4,876 to pre-tax earnings, respectively, and a hypothetical 10% decrease in the value of the Indian Rupee to the U.S. dollar would result in an increase of approximately $1,229 and $3,990 to pre-tax earnings, respectively.
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
We are subject to market risk from changes in interest rates. We have a revolving credit facility that bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 1.50% and 3.25%. As LIBOR rates fluctuate, so too will the interest expense on amounts borrowed under the Amended Credit Agreement. Interest charged on the revolving credit facility for the third quarter of 2020 was approximately 2.4%. As of September 30, 2020, we had no borrowings outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement. We incurred interest expense of $1,450 and $6,263 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, related to the Amended Credit Agreement. A sensitivity analysis performed on the interest expense indicated that a hypothetical 0.25% increase or decrease in our interest rate would increase or decrease interest expense by approximately $516 on an annual basis.
55


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 of September 30, 2020. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
 
Based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2020, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
 
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
 
The information in Part I, Note 17—Commitments and Contingencies - Legal Proceedings is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
 
Investment in our securities involves risk. An investor or potential investor should consider the risks summarized below and under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our 2019 Form 10-K when making investment decisions regarding our securities. Other than as provided below, the risk factors that were disclosed in our 2019 Form 10-K have not materially changed since the date our 2019 Form 10-K was filed.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused, and is causing, significant harm to the global economy and may adversely affect our business, including our operations and financial condition, and may cause our assets under management or administration, revenue and earnings to decline.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared Coronavirus Disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) a pandemic disease. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in authorities implementing numerous measures attempting to contain the spread and impact of COVID-19, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders, and limitations on business activity, including closures. These measures are, among other things, severely restricting global economic activity, which is disrupting supply chains, lowering asset and equity market valuations, significantly increasing unemployment and underemployment levels, decreasing liquidity in markets for certain securities and causing significant volatility and disruption in the financial markets.
In response to COVID-19 concerns, the Company has instituted a travel ban for all of its domestic and international employees and is following mandatory stay-at-home orders where applicable. A majority of the Company's employees are working from home as a result of these mandatory stay-at-home orders. Remote work-from-home restrictions makes us more dependent on certain technologies that allow us to operate our business remotely and collaborate without face-to-face meetings both internally and with our customers. To the extent we experience a technological disruption in our work-from-home capabilities, we would anticipate a negative impact on our business operations. Further, to the extent supply chains are disrupted, it may become more difficult to provide necessary technology to our employees working from remote locations.
56


For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, approximately 54% of the Company's revenues result from asset-based fee billing arrangements. These fees are generally based upon variable percentages of assets managed or administered under the Company's platforms. Approximately 90% of the Company's asset-based fee arrangements are billed at the beginning of each quarter based on the market value of customer assets on its platforms as of the end of the prior quarter. If current economic conditions deteriorate, there may be an ongoing adverse effect on our business, including our results of operations and financial condition, as a result of, among other things:
adverse equity market conditions, volatility in the financial markets and unforeseen investment trends resulting in a reduction in our asset-based fees;
a decline in new client conversions as a result of extended sales cycles and longer implementation periods as clients work remotely;
the negative impact of the pandemic on our clients and key vendors, market participants and other third-parties with whom we do business;
the disruption to our workforce due to illness and health concerns, potential limitations on our remote work environment, and government-imposed restrictions, laws and regulations.
The extent to which COVID-19, and the related global economic crisis, affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and any recovery period, future actions taken by governmental authorities, central banks and other third parties in response to the pandemic, and the effects on our products, clients, employees and vendors. If we are not able to respond to and manage the impact of such events effectively, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.
The COVID-19 pandemic, and the related global economic crisis, could also precipitate or aggravate the other risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Further, the COVID-19 pandemic may also affect our operating and financial results in a manner that is not presently known to us or that we currently do not consider to present significant risks. For additional discussion of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, which could be materially adverse to our operations and financial results, please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Recent Developments, Uncertainties Related to COVID-19” section in Item 2 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
