Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.Organization and Description of Business

Envestnet, Inc. (“Envestnet”) through its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is transforming the way financial advice and wellness are delivered. Its mission is to empower advisors and financial service providers with innovative technology, solutions and intelligence to make financial wellness a reality for everyone. Through a combination of platform enhancements, partnerships and acquisitions, Envestnet provides a unique financial network connecting technology, solutions and data, delivering better intelligence and enabling its customers to drive better outcomes.

Envestnet is organized around two primary, complementary business segments. Financial information about each business segment is contained in “Note 14—Segment Information” to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

2.Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2021 and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 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, 2020 and reflect all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2021 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 months ended March 31, 2021 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, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2021.
 
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.

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 continues to cause 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 continue to 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, as 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 March 31, 2021, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments as a result of the pandemic.

Related Party Transactions

The Company has a 4.3% membership interest in a private services company that it accounts for using the equity method of accounting and is considered to be a related party. Revenues from the private services company totaled $3.8 million and $2.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had recorded a net receivable of $2.6 million and $2.1 million, respectively, from the private services company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently 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. These changes became effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning January 1, 2021. This standard will be applied prospectively. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's 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 by reducing the number of accounting models available for convertible debt instruments and revises Topic 815-40, which provides guidance on how an entity must determine whether a contract qualifies for a scope exception from derivative accounting. Under the new guidance, the embedded conversion features are no longer separated from the host contract for convertible instruments with conversion features that are not required to be accounted for as derivatives under Topic 815, or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. The convertible debt instruments will be accounted for as a single liability measured at amortized cost. In addition, the new guidance requires the if-converted method to be applied for all convertible instruments. 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. Adoption of the standard requires using either a modified retrospective or a full retrospective approach.

The Company has early adopted this standard as of January 1, 2021 using the modified retrospective approach. Adoption of this standard resulted in a decrease to accumulated deficit of $28.6 million (net of $0.9 million in taxes), a decrease to paid-in capital of $108.5 million (net of $6.7 million in taxes) and an increase to Convertible Notes of $87.5 million.

expense recognized in future periods is expected to be reduced as a result of accounting for the convertible debt instrument as a single liability measured at its amortized cost, with an expected decrease of approximately $22.1 million in 2021 as a result of the adoption. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 had no impact on the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows.

Acquisition of Proprietary Technology

The Company previously owned approximately 29% of the outstanding units in a privately held company and accounted for it as an equity method investment. On March 11, 2021, the Company entered into an intellectual property purchase agreement with this privately held company to acquire all of the proprietary technology developed by the privately held company for approximately $35.5 million. Concurrent with the intellectual property purchase agreement, the Company also entered into a redemption agreement with the same privately held company to redeem its previously held equity interest for approximately $10.0 million. The Company accounted for these two arrangements as a single unit of account. As of the acquisition date, the net cost of the proprietary technology acquired, including capitalized transaction costs, was approximately $24.5 million, which will be amortized over a five-year period on a straight-line basis. The proprietary technology has been integrated into the Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the total interest expense related to the Convertible Notes was $3.7 million and $4.3 million, respectively, with coupon interest expense of $2.5 million and $1.5 million and the amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $1.2 million and $2.8 million, respectively.

Convertible Notes due 2023

Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, effective January 1, 2021, the embedded conversion option, or equity component, is no longer separated from the host contract and recognized within additional paid-in capital and is instead accounted for as a single liability measured at amortized cost within Long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accordingly, the Convertible Notes due 2023 are presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at their gross proceeds of $345.0 million less unamortized debt issuance costs of $4.5 million as of March 31, 2021 with no future accretion of the original issue discount necessary.

In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes due 2023, the Company incurred $10.0 million of issuance costs in 2018, of which $8.6 million was originally allocated to the debt component and presented net in Long-term debt and $1.4 million was originally allocated to the equity component and presented within additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, effective January 1, 2021, the costs originally allocated to the equity component are reflected within Long-term debt and are being amortized and recorded as additional interest expense over the life of the Convertible Notes due 2023.

The effective interest rate of the Convertible Notes due 2023 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was approximately 2.4% and 6%. The effective interest rate of the Convertible Notes due 2023 is equal to the stated interest rate plus the amortization of the debt issuance costs subsequent to adoption. Prior to the adoption of ASU 2020-06, the effective interest rate calculation also included the amortization of the original issue discount.

Convertible Notes due 2025

Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, effective January 1, 2021, the embedded conversion option, or equity component, is no longer separated from the host contract and recognized within additional paid-in capital and is instead accounted for as a single liability measured at amortized cost within Long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Accordingly, the Convertible Notes due 2025 are presented in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at their gross proceeds of $517.5 million less unamortized debt issuance costs of $12.8 million as of March 31, 2021 with no future accretion of the original issue discount necessary.

In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes due 2025, the Company incurred a total of $14.5 million of issuance costs in 2020, of which $12.6 million was originally allocated to the debt component and presented net in Long-term debt and $1.9 million was originally allocated to the equity component and presented within additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Upon adoption of ASU 2020-06, effective January 1, 2021, the costs originally allocated to the equity component are reflected within Long-term debt and are being amortized and recorded as additional interest expense over the life of the Convertible Notes due 2025.

The effective interest rate of the Convertible Notes due 2025 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was approximately 1.3%. The effective interest rate of the Convertible Notes due 2025 was equal to the stated interest rate plus the amortization of the debt issuance costs subsequent to adoption.

See “Note 13—Net Income (Loss) Per Share” for further discussion of the effect of conversion on net income per share.

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 March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with these requirements.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had $500.0 million available to borrow under the revolving credit facility, subject to covenant compliance.

9.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 March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, based on the three-tier fair value hierarchy, as defined in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”:

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. 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, 2020 to March 31, 2021:

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, 2020 to March 31, 2021:
 Fair Value of Assets to Fund Deferred Compensation Liability
(in thousands)
Balance at December 31, 2020$9,961 
Fair value adjustments208 
Balance at March 31, 2021$10,169 
 
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 gains on the underlying investment vehicles. These gains 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 three months ended March 31, 2021.

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 March 31, 2021 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 March 31, 2021 (See “Note 8—Debt”).

As of March 31, 2021, the carrying value of the Convertible Notes due 2023 equaled $340.5 million and represented the aggregate principal amount outstanding less the unamortized debt issuance costs. As of December 31, 2020, the carrying value of the Convertible Notes due 2023 equaled $316.6 million and represented the aggregate principal amount outstanding less the unamortized discount and debt issuance costs. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the estimated fair value of the Convertible Notes due 2023 was $419.7 million and $460.8 million, respectively.

As of March 31, 2021, the carrying value of the Convertible Notes due 2025 equaled $504.7 million and represented the aggregate principal amount outstanding less the unamortized debt issuance costs. As of December 31, 2020, the carrying value of the Convertible Notes due 2025 equaled $439.9 million and represented the aggregate principal amount outstanding less the unamortized discount and debt issuance costs. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the estimated fair value of the Convertible Notes due 2025 was $519.1 million and $540.8 million, respectively.

The Company considered the recorded value of its 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 March 31, 2021 based upon the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.

Total$598,068 

Only fixed consideration from significant contracts with customers is included in the amounts presented above.

The Company has applied the practical expedients and exemption and therefore does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less; (ii) contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed; and (iii) contracts for which the variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligations or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation.

Contract Balances

Total deferred revenue as of March 31, 2021 increased by $7,882 during the three months ended March 31, 2021, 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 $16.9 million and $15.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, 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 $10.4 million and $10.8 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Amortization expense for the deferred sales incentive compensation was $1.1 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Deferred sales incentive compensation is included in other non-current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and amortization expense is included in compensation and benefits expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. No significant impairment loss for capitalized costs was recorded during the periods.

The Company has applied the practical expedient to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are included in compensation and benefits expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

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.

At March 31, 2021, there was $10.7 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested performance-based restricted stock units, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years.
 
12. Income Taxes

Income tax benefit(5,588)(1,964)
Effective tax rate(59.8)%21.5 %

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company’s effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the increase in the valuation allowance the Company has placed on a portion of its U.S. deferred tax assets, permanent book-tax differences, and the impact of state and local taxes offset by federal and state research and development (“R&D”) credits.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company's effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the increase in the valuation allowance the Company had placed on a portion of its US deferred tax assets offset by the windfall from stock-based compensation and the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) net operating loss carryback.

13.Net Income (Loss) Per Share
 
Prior to January 1, 2021, the Company accounted for the effect of its convertible notes using the treasury stock method since they may be settled in cash, shares or a combination thereof at the Company's option. Pursuant to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021, the Company now accounts for the effect of its convertible notes on diluted net income per share using the if-converted method (See “Note 2—Basis of Presentation” and “Note 8—Debt”).

20

Table of Contents
Envestnet, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
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 and restricted stock units and convertible notes, if dilutive, using either the treasury method or if-converted method, as appropriate.

The following table provides the numerators and denominators used in computing basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to Envestnet, Inc.:

16.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.

Legal Proceedings
 
The Company and its subsidiary, Yodlee, Inc. (“Yodlee”), have been named as defendants in a lawsuit filed on July 17, 2019, by FinancialApps, LLC (“FinancialApps”) in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The case caption is FinancialApps, LLC v. Envestnet Inc., et al., No. 19-cv-1337 (D. 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 defamatory statements FinancialApps disseminated in the trade press after filing the lawsuit. On January 14, 2021, the Court ordered that (i) FinancialApps’s claims against Yodlee—as well as Yodlee’s counterclaims against FinancialApps—must be tried before the judge instead of a jury pursuant to a jury waiver provision in the parties’ agreement; and (ii) FinancialApps’s claims against Envestnet (and Envestnet’s counterclaim) must be heard by a jury. The Court has scheduled the Envestnet jury trial to take place before the Yodlee bench trial. Fact discovery closed on April 23, 2021, other than a few outstanding matters, and expert discovery is set to commence in earnest.

The Company believes FinancialApps’s allegations are without merit and will continue to defend the claims against it and litigate the counterclaims vigorously.

The Company and Yodlee were also 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. On February 16, 2021, the district court granted in part and denied in part Yodlee’s motion to dismiss the amended complaint and granted the plaintiffs leave to further amend. The court reserved ruling on the Company’s motion to dismiss and granted limited jurisdictional discovery to the plaintiffs. On March 15, 2021, Plaintiffs filed a second amended class action complaint re-alleging, among others, the claims the district court had dismissed. The second amended complaint did not allege any claims against the Company or Yodlee that were not
23

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
previously alleged in first amended complaint. On May 5, 2021, the Company filed a motion to dismiss all claims asserted against it in the second amended complaint, and Yodlee filed a motion to dismiss most claims asserted against it in the second amended complaint. The Company and Yodlee will continue to vigorously defend the claims against it.

The Company’s subsidiary, Envestnet Asset Management, Inc. (“EAM”), has been named as a defendant in two putative class action lawsuits filed on December 28, 2020 and March 4, 2021, respectively, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama. The case captions are Drake v. BBVA USA Bancshares, Inc. et al., No. 2:20-CV-02076-ACA (“Drake”) and Ferguson v. BBVA Compass Bancshares, Inc. et al, No. 2:19-CV-01135-MHH (“Ferguson”). The material allegations of both cases are identical. The plaintiff alleges that EAM, acting as investment advisor to BBVA USA Bancshares, Inc.’s Compass SmartInvestor 401(k) Plan (the “SmartInvestor Plan”), along with BBVA and others, breached its fiduciary duties under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) in connection with the selection and maintenance of the SmartInvestor Plan’s investment options. The plaintiff seeks unspecified damages on behalf of a class of SmartInvestor Plan participants from July 17, 2013 through December 28, 2020. EAM has asked the court to dismiss the Drake lawsuit against it on grounds that it is not properly named as a defendant in the lawsuit and it further believes, along with BBVA, that the claims are without merit. The Ferguson case has been stayed by the court until the Drake court decides whether that case should continue, and if so, whether the two cases should be consolidated before one court. EAM will continue to vigorously defend the claims against it.

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 March 31, 2021. 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 March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company estimated a sales and use tax liability of $5.4 million and $6.6 million, 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 March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company also estimated a sales and use tax receivable of $2.4 million and $2.1 million, 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.
 
17.Subsequent Events
 
Acquisition of Harvest
 
On April 8, 2021, pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of March 31, 2021, between, among others, Harvest Savings & Wealth Technologies (“Harvest”), a Delaware corporation, and Bounty Merger Sub, Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), the Company completed the merger of Harvest with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Harvest Acquisition”) and a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Envestnet. Harvest will be integrated into the Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment.

Harvest provides automated goals-based saving tools and wealth solutions to banks, credit unions, trust companies, and other financial institutions. The acquisition optimizes Envestnet's API-based financial wellness ecosystem, and also helps strengthen the Company's foothold to enable embedded finance, which Envestnet sees as a key driver of the future of financial services.

In connection with the Harvest Acquisition, Envestnet paid approximately $33.6 million in estimated cash consideration, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. Envestnet funded the acquisition with cash on hand.

Recent Developments

Uncertainties 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 continues to cause 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 continue to 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, as 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 March 31, 2021, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments as a result of the pandemic.

Acquisition of Proprietary Technology

We previously owned approximately 29% of the outstanding units in a privately held company and accounted for it as an equity method investment. On March 11, 2021, we entered into an intellectual property purchase agreement with this privately held company to acquire all of the proprietary technology developed by the privately held company for approximately $35.5 million. Concurrent with the intellectual property purchase agreement, we also entered into a redemption agreement with the same privately held company to redeem its previously held equity interest in the privately held company for approximately $10.0 million. We accounted for these two arrangements as a single unit of account. As of the acquisition date, the net cost of the proprietary technology acquired, including capitalized transaction costs, was approximately $24.5 million, which will be amortized over a five-year period on a straight-line basis. The proprietary technology has been integrated into the Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment.

Acquisition of Harvest
 
On April 8, 2021, we acquired Harvest Savings & Wealth Technologies (“Harvest”), a Delaware corporation (the “Harvest Acquisition”). Harvest provides automated goals-based saving tools and wealth solutions to banks, credit unions, trust companies, and other financial institutions. Harvest will be integrated into the Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment. The acquisition optimizes our API-based financial wellness ecosystem and also helps strengthen our foothold to enable embedded finance, which we see as a key driver of the future of financial services.

In connection with the Harvest Acquisition, Envestnet paid approximately $33.6 million in estimated cash consideration, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. Envestnet funded the acquisition with cash on hand.

28


Organizational Realignment

In the fourth quarter of 2020, as part of an organizational realignment, we entered into separation agreements with several employees. In connection with this realignment, we recognized approximately $3.8 million of severance expense during the three months ended March 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2021, we have approximately $4.6 million in accrued compensation and related taxes associated with these separation agreements.

Accelerated Investment Plan

In February 2021, we announced that we would be accelerating our investment in our ecosystem, whereby we will be:

Enhancing and streamlining our platforms to make it easier for our customers to work with us;
Redefining the way data is used in an effort to create better intelligence, insight and guidance for advisors to better assist their clients;
Improving the digital experience in a manner that we believe will empower advisors to offer their clients a platform to make impactful decisions in ways that they haven't experienced before; and
Opening the platform for expansion to more solutions providers and developers.

These investments, which are expected to begin in the second quarter of 2021 and increase as the year progresses, will approximate $30 million of operating expenses in total in 2021.

Asset and account figures in the “Reclass to Subscription” columns for the three months ended March 31, 2021 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.

Three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to three months ended March 31, 2020
 
Asset-based recurring revenues
 
Asset-based recurring revenues increased 18% from $134.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $159.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in asset values applicable to our quarterly billing cycles in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, the impact of new account growth and positive net flows of AUM/A in the first three months of 2021.

The number of financial advisors with asset-based recurring revenue on our technology platforms remained consistent at approximately 41,000 as of March 31, 2020 and 2021, and the number of AUM/A client accounts increased from approximately 2.2 million as of March 31, 2020 to approximately 2.3 million as of March 31, 2021.

Asset-based recurring revenues increased from 55% of total revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to 58% of total revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily due to revenue growth from key institutional clients.
 
Subscription-based recurring revenues
 
Subscription-based recurring revenue increased 5% from $104.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $109.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was primarily due to the combination of an increase of $3.7 million in the Envestnet Wealth Solutions segment, primarily due to new and existing customer growth along with additional revenue from existing customers switching from an asset-based pricing model to a subscription-based pricing model, and an increase of $1.6 million in the Envestnet Data & Analytics segment, primarily due to new and existing customer growth.

Professional services and other revenues
 
Professional services and other revenues decreased 18% from $7.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $5.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was due to timing of the completion of customer projects and deployments.

Cost of revenues
 
Cost of revenues increased 24% from $74.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $92.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in asset-based cost of revenues of $17.6 million, 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 March 31, 2020 to 34% in three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to shifts in pricing and product mix for asset-based revenues.
 
Compensation and benefits

Compensation and benefits decreased 9% from $110.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $100.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in severance expense of $9.1 million, salaries, benefits and related payroll taxes of $2.1 million, non-cash compensation expense of $1.9 million and miscellaneous employee expenses of $1.6 million, partially offset by an increase in incentive compensation of $5.1 million. The decrease in severance expense is primarily related to charges incurred in connection with the Early Retirement Program during the three months ended March 31, 2020. As a percentage of total revenues, compensation and benefits decreased from 45% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to 37% in the three months ended March 31, 2021, due to a combination of lower severance expenses and increased capitalized labor costs related to internally developed software projects.

General and administration
 
General and administration expenses decreased 12% from $41.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $36.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in travel and entertainment expense of $3.8 million, miscellaneous general and administration expense of $2.6 million and bad debt expense of $0.7 million. These decreases were partially offset by increases in systems development costs of $2.5 million and professional and legal fees of $1.3 million. As a percentage of total revenues, general and administration expenses decreased from 17% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to 13% in the three months ended March 31, 2021 primarily due to decreased travel and entertainment expense as a result of actions taken by us as a result of COVID-19.

33


Depreciation and amortization
 
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 3% from $27.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $28.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in internally developed software amortization expense of $2.7 million, partially offset by a decrease in intangible asset amortization expense of $2.3 million. As a percentage of total revenues, depreciation and amortization expense decreased from 11% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to 10% in the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Other expense, net

Other expense, net increased from $1.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $7.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded a one-time gain of $4.2 million related to the remeasurement of a previously held interest in an equity method investee that we acquired the remaining outstanding equity for and a one-time gain of $2.5 million related to a fair value adjustment upon the settlement of a former Chief Executive Officer's stock options. These gains offset our expenses within this line item. In addition, losses from equity method investees increased $1.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase in other expenses was partially offset by reduced interest expense of $1.5 million primarily due to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021.

Income tax benefit(5,588)(1,964)
Effective tax rate(59.8)%21.5 %

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, 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 U.S. deferred tax assets, permanent book-tax differences, and the impact of state and local taxes offset by the federal and state R&D credits.

For the three months ended March 31, 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 offset by the windfall from stock-based compensation and the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) net operating loss ("NOL") carryback.

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 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 revenues has limitations as a financial measure, should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for revenue prepared in accordance with GAAP. 

“Adjusted EBITDA” represents net income (loss) 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, cash interest on our convertible notes (subsequent to the adoption of ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021), 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. Beginning January 1, 2021, the dilutive effect of our Convertible Notes are calculated using the if-converted method in accordance with the adoption of ASU 2020-06 (See Part I, “Note 2—Basis of Presentation”). As a result, 9.9 million potential shares to be issued in connection with our Convertible Notes are considered to be dilutive for purposes of the adjusted net income per share calculation beginning January 1, 2021.
 
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 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 by excluding the effect of purchase accounting on the fair value of acquired deferred revenue. 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 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 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 EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share.
 
Adjusted 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 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 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 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 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 $1,879 and $814 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, 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 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 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 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 reviews GAAP measures and evaluates individual measures that are not included in some or all of our non-GAAP financial measures, such as our level of capital expenditures and interest income, among other measures.

Note on Income Taxes: As of December 31, 2020, we had NOL carryforwards of approximately $242.0 million and $211.0 million 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 March 31, 2021, we had total cash and cash equivalents of $372.0 million compared to $$384.6 million as of December 31, 2020. We plan to use existing cash as of March 31, 2021, 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 March 31, 2021, we had $500.0 million 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:

Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash(12,588)(13,986)
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, end of period372,126 68,769 
 
Operating Activities
 
Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $49.8 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $9.0 million for the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily due to:

An increase in pre-tax income period over period of $18.5 million;
The recognition of a one-time $4.2 million gain in 2020 related to the revaluation of the company's interest in a privately-held company; and
An increase in the change in operating assets and liabilities of $19.7 million which is primarily timing related.

Investing Activities
 
Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $50.2 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $45.7 million for the same period in 2020. Contributing to the increase were an increase in net cash disbursements of $25.5 million for proprietary technology and the related redemption of our equity interest in a privately held company, $4.9 million of increased purchases of property and equipment and an additional $3.5 million of internally developed software costs capitalized in 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. These increases were partially offset by $29.4 million of decreased investments related to acquisitions and investments in privately held companies.
 
Financing Activities
 
Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $12.2 million compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $24.2 million for the same period in 2020. On a year over year basis, our revolver activity resulted in an additional $30.0 million of net cash outflows. Lower proceeds from stock option exercises of $2.9 million and share repurchases of $1.7 million in the current year period also contributed to this decrease.

Legal Proceedings
 
See “Part I, Item 1, Note 16—Commitments and Contingencies, Legal Proceedings” for legal proceedings details.

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 2020 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 2020 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.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
There has been no material change in the market risk, foreign currency risk or interest rate risk discussed in Part II, Item 7A of our 2020 Form 10-K.

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 March 31, 2021. 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 March 31, 2021, 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 March 31, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

The timing and volume of share repurchases will be determined by our management based on ongoing assessments of the capital needs of the business, the market price of our common stock and general market conditions. No time limit has been set for the completion of the repurchase program, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The repurchase program authorizes the Company to purchase its common stock from time to time in the open market (including pursuant to a “Rule 10b5-1 plan”), in block transactions, in privately negotiated transactions, through accelerated stock repurchase programs, through option or other forward transactions or otherwise, all in compliance with applicable laws and other restrictions.
