FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023 (this "Quarterly Report"), contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws, which statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report are based primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, operating results, and prospects and relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “might,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue,” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans, or intentions. We cannot assure you that the results, events, and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results, events, or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, or investments we may make. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors described in the section titled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this Quarterly Report and "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (our "Annual Report"), as well as in the other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). You should read this Quarterly Report, and the other documents we file with the SEC, with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from the results expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. As such, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements made regarding changes in the competitive environment, responding to customer needs, research and product development plans, future products and services, growth in the size of our business and number of customers, strategic plans and objectives, business forecasts and plans, our future or assumed financial condition, results of operations and liquidity, trends affecting our business and industry, capital needs and financing plans, capital resource allocation plans, share repurchase plans, and commitments and contingencies, including with respect to the outcome of legal proceedings or regulatory matters. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this Quarterly Report is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 1. Nature of Business
AppFolio, Inc. ("we," "us" or "our") is a leading provider of cloud business management solutions for the real estate industry. Our solutions are designed to enable our customers to digitally transform their businesses, address critical business operations and deliver a better customer experience. Digital transformation is effectively a requirement for business success in the modern world, and the way we work and live requires powerful software solutions.
 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report, which was filed with the SEC on February 9, 2023. The year-end condensed balance sheet was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements. Our unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, necessary for the fair statement of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year ending December 31, 2023.
Reclassification
We reclassified certain amounts in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows within the cash flows from operating activities section in the prior year to conform to the current year's presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, other income, and provision for income taxes during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities which are subject to judgment and use of estimates include the fair value of financial instruments, capitalized software development costs, period of benefit associated with deferred costs, incremental borrowing rate used to measure operating lease liabilities, the recoverability of goodwill and long-lived assets, income taxes, useful lives associated with property and equipment and intangible assets, contingencies, assumptions underlying performance-based compensation (whether cash or stock-based), and assumptions underlying stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates and any such differences may have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Net Loss per Common Share
Net loss per common share was the same for shares of our Class A and Class B common stock because they are entitled to the same liquidation and dividend rights and are therefore combined in the table below. The following table presents a reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares of our Class A and Class B common stock used to compute net loss per common share (in thousands):

Weighted average common shares outstanding; basic and diluted35,565 34,927 35,505 34,881 
Because we reported a net loss for all periods presented, all potentially dilutive common shares are anti-dilutive for these periods and have been excluded from the calculation of net loss per share.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted
In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2021-08, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers," which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," as if the acquirer had originated the contracts. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2021-08 on January 1, 2023. Adoption did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2023, the decline in fair value below amortized cost basis was not considered other than temporary as it is more likely than not we will hold the securities until maturity or recovery of the cost basis. No allowance for credit losses for available-for-sale investment securities was recorded as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these items.
Fair value for our Level 1 investment securities is based on market prices for identical assets. Our Level 2 securities were priced by a pricing vendor. The pricing vendor utilizes the most recent observable market information in pricing these securities or, if specific prices are not available for these securities, other observable inputs like market transactions involving comparable securities are used.

 7. Leases
Operating leases for our corporate offices have remaining lease terms ranging from one to ten years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to ten years. These options to extend have not been recognized as part of our operating lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as it is not reasonably certain that we will exercise these options. Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Certain leases contain provisions for property-related costs that are variable in nature for which we are responsible, including common area maintenance, which are expensed as incurred.
The components of lease expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations were as follows (in thousands):

During the second quarter of 2022, we decided to exit and make available for sublease certain leased office spaces. As a result, we recorded an impairment of $19.4 million consisting of $15.7 million related to ROU assets and $3.7 million related to property and equipment associated with our leased office spaces. These charges were recorded within General and administrative expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
In January 2023, we entered into an amendment to the lease agreement for our San Diego facility (the "San Diego Lease"). We remeasured the lease liability and recorded a reduction to the lease liability and right-of-use asset using the discount rate at the modification date, which resulted in a gain of $2.4 million in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In June 2023, we entered into a second amendment to reduce the rentable square footage and our future rental payment obligations under the San Diego Lease pursuant to which we made a one-time payment of $2.9 million. We again remeasured the lease liability and recorded a reduction to the lease liability using the discount rate at the modification date. As a result, we recorded a gain of $1.9 million in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
In July 2023, we entered into an agreement to sublet one of our office spaces in Santa Barbara through December 31, 2031.

 8. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Liability to Landlord Insurance
We have a wholly owned subsidiary, Terra Mar Insurance Company, Inc., which was established in connection with reinsuring liability to landlord insurance policies offered to our customers by our third-party service provider. Each policy has a limit of $100 thousand per incident. We assume a 100% quota share of the liability to landlord insurance policies placed with our customers by our third-party service provider. We accrue for reported claims, and include an estimate of losses incurred but not reported by our property manager customers, in cost of revenue because we bear the risk related to all such claims. Our estimated liability for reported claims and incurred but not reported claims as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $3.2 million and $2.7 million, respectively, and is included in Other current liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are $2.8 million and $4.5 million, respectively, of deposits held with a third party related to requirements to maintain collateral for this insurance service.
Legal Proceedings
From time to time we may become involved in various legal proceedings, investigative inquiries, and other disputes arising from or related to matters incident to the ordinary course of our business activities. We are not currently a party to any matters, nor are we aware of any pending or threatened matters, that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flows or financial condition should such proceedings be resolved unfavorably.
Indemnification
In the ordinary course of business, we may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to customers, business partners, investors, directors, officers, and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of our breach of any applicable agreements, intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties, and other liabilities relating to or arising from our services or our acts or omissions. These indemnification provisions may survive termination of the underlying agreement and the maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification provisions may not be subject to maximum loss clauses and is indeterminable. We have not incurred any costs as a result of such indemnification obligations and have not recorded any liabilities related to such obligations in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Unvested as of June 30, 20231,335 $119.84 
Unvested RSUs as of June 30, 2023 were composed of 1.1 million RSUs with only service conditions and 0.2 million PSUs with both service conditions and performance conditions. RSUs granted with only service conditions generally vest over a four-year period. The number of PSUs granted, as included in the above table, assumes achievement of the performance metric at 100% of the performance target. Of the unvested PSUs as of June 30, 2023, 0.1 million are subject to vesting based on the achievement of pre-established performance metrics for the year ending December 31, 2023 and will vest over a three year period, assuming continued employment through each vesting date. The actual number of shares to be issued at the end of the performance period will range from 0% to 142% of the target number of shares depending on achievement relative to the performance metric over the applicable period. The remaining 0.1 million PSUs unvested as of June 30, 2023 are subject to vesting based on the achievement of pre-established performance metrics for three year measurement periods ending December 31, 2023, assuming continued employment throughout the performance period. The actual number of shares to be issued at the end of the performance period will range from 0% to 100% of the initial target awards. Achievement of the performance metric between 100% and 150% of the performance target will result in a performance-based cash bonus payment between 0% and 65% of the initial target awards.
We recognized stock-based compensation expense for the RSUs and PSUs of $10.4 million and $10.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $24.1 million and $18.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Excluded from stock-based compensation expense is capitalized software development costs of $0.2 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $0.4 million and $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, the total estimated remaining stock-based compensation expense for the aforementioned RSUs and PSUs was $126.2 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.7 years.

 10. Income Taxes
We calculate our provision for (benefit from) income taxes on a quarterly basis by applying an estimated annual effective tax rate to income/loss from operations and by calculating the tax effect of discrete items recognized during the quarter.
17

Table of Contents
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded income tax expense of $19.6 million and $29.6 million representing an effective tax rate of 2,637% and (121)%. The effective tax rate as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% differs primarily due to the change in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, non-deductible officers' compensation and state income taxes, partially offset by tax benefits from research and development tax credits.
We assess our ability to realize our deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and we establish a valuation allowance if it is more-likely-than-not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We weigh all available positive and negative evidence, including our earnings history and results of recent operations, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies.
There were no material changes to our unrecognized tax benefits during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

We had 7.7 million and 6.8 million property management units under management as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Key Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
Our core solutions and certain of our Value Added Services are offered on a subscription basis. Our core solutions subscription fees vary by property type and are designed to scale with the size of our customers’ businesses. We recognize revenue for subscription-based services on a straight-line basis over the contract term beginning on the date that our service is made available. We generally invoice monthly or, to a lesser extent, annually in advance of the subscription period.
We also offer certain Value Added Services, which are not covered by our subscription fees, on a per-use basis. Usage-based fees are charged either as a percentage of the transaction amount (e.g., for certain of our payment services) or on a flat fee per transaction basis with no minimum usage commitments (e.g., for our tenant screening and risk mitigation services). We recognize revenue for usage-based services in the period the service is rendered. Our payments services fees are recorded gross of the interchange and payment processing related fees. We generally invoice our usage-based services on a monthly basis or collect the fee at the time of service. A significant majority of our Value Added Services revenue comes from the use of our payment services, tenant screening services, and risk mitigation services.
We charge our customers for assistance onboarding onto our core solutions and for certain other non-recurring services. We generally invoice for these other services in advance of the services being completed and recognize revenue in the period the service is rendered. We generate revenue from the legacy customers of previously acquired businesses by providing services outside of our property management core solution platform. Revenue derived from these services is recorded in Other revenue. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, we had 19,145 and 17,878 property management customers, respectively.
Costs and Operating Expenses
Cost of Revenue (Exclusive of Depreciation and Amortization). Many of our Value Added Services are facilitated by third-party service providers. Cost of revenue paid to these third-party service providers includes the cost of electronic interchange and payment processing-related services to support our payments services, the cost of credit reporting services for our tenant screening services, and various costs associated with our risk mitigation service providers. These third-party costs vary both in amount and as a percent of revenue for each Value Added Service offering. Cost of revenue also consists of personnel-related costs for our employees focused on customer service and the support of our operations (including salaries, performance-based compensation, benefits, and stock-based compensation), platform infrastructure costs (such as data center operations and hosting-related costs), and allocated shared and other costs. Cost of revenue excludes depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of capitalized software development costs and amortization of intangible assets.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expense consists of personnel-related costs for our employees focused on sales and marketing (including salaries, sales commissions, performance-based compensation, benefits, and stock-based compensation), costs associated with sales and marketing activities, and allocated shared and other costs. Marketing activities include advertising, online lead generation, lead nurturing, customer and industry events, and the creation of industry-related content and collateral. We focus our sales and marketing efforts on generating awareness of our software solutions, creating sales leads, establishing and promoting our brands, and cultivating an educated community of successful and vocal customers.
Research and Product Development. Research and product development expense consists of personnel-related costs for our employees focused on research and product development (including salaries, performance-based compensation, benefits, and stock-based compensation), fees for third-party development resources, and allocated shared and other costs. Our research and product development efforts are focused on expanding functionality and the ease of use of our existing software

Table of Contents
solutions by adding new core functionality, Value Added Services and other improvements, as well as developing new products and services. We capitalize our software development costs that meet the criteria for capitalization. Amortization of capitalized software development costs is included in depreciation and amortization expense.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expense consists of personnel-related costs for employees in our executive, finance, information technology, human resources, legal, compliance, corporate development and administrative organizations (including salaries, performance-based cash compensation, benefits, and stock-based compensation). In addition, general and administrative expense includes fees for third-party professional services (including audit, legal, compliance, and tax services), transaction costs related to sales of subsidiary businesses, regulatory fees, other corporate expenses, impairment of long-lived assets, gains on lease modifications, and allocated shared and other costs.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense includes depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of capitalized software development costs, and amortization of intangible assets. We depreciate or amortize property and equipment, software development costs, and intangible assets over their expected useful lives on a straight-line basis, which approximates the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are consumed.
Other Income (Loss), Net. Other income (loss), net includes gains and losses associated with the sale of businesses and property and equipment.
Interest Income, Net. Interest income, net includes interest earned on investment securities, amortization and accretion of the premium and discounts paid from the purchase of investment securities, and interest earned on cash deposited in our bank accounts.
Provision for (Benefit from) Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes consists of federal and state income taxes in the United States.

The increase in revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in the prior year, was primarily attributable to an increase in the usage of our payment, tenant screening and risk mitigation services. During the three and six month period ended June 30, 2023, we also experienced growth of 13% in the number of property management units under management compared to the same periods in the prior year, which drove growth in users of our subscription and usage-based services.
We expect our payment services, including the eCheck (ACH) transaction fee, which we will no longer waive beginning in the third quarter of 2023, to increase for the remainder of the year ended December 31, 2023.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, expenditures to third-party service providers related to the delivery of our Value Added Services increased $7.0 million and $15.2 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year. This increase was directly associated with the increased adoption and utilization of our Value Added Services. Personnel-related costs, including stock-based and performance-based compensation, necessary to support growth and key investments, increased $2.4 million and $6.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year. Allocated shared and other costs increased by $1.0 million and $1.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year, primarily related to platform infrastructure, software and other costs incurred in support of our overall growth.
As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) fluctuates primarily based on the mix of Value Added Services revenue in the period, given the varying percentage of revenue we pay to third-party service providers. We expect cost of revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) for the year ending December 31, 2023, to decrease as a percentage of revenue compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to increased revenue from our enhanced revenue mix.

Sales and marketing expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 stayed flat compared to the same period in the prior year. Sales and marketing expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased primarily due to increases in personnel-related costs, including stock-based and performance-based compensation, necessary to support growth in the business of $3.4 million compared to the same period in the prior year. Advertising costs increased by $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in the prior year, due to increased promotional activities.
The decrease in stock-based compensation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to the reversal of expense for unvested equity awards as a result of changes in our leadership team.
We expect sales and marketing expense for the year ending December 31, 2023 to decrease as a percentage of revenue compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, as we continue to leverage headcount efficiencies.

General and administrative expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily due to lease-related asset impairment charges of $19.4 million and $19.8 million recognized in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, that did not recur in 2023. In addition, allocated shared and other costs decreased $1.9 million and $4.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same periods in the prior year, due to gains related to lease modifications. This was partially offset by an increase in personnel-related costs, including stock-based and performance-based compensation, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 of $1.9 million and $17.5 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in personnel-related costs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was driven primarily by the separation costs associated with our former Chief Executive Officer's Separation Agreement. For further information see Note 6, Accrued Employee Expenses, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, stock-based compensation increased due to additional grants to current and new employees.
We expect general and administrative expenses for the year ending December 31, 2023 to decrease as a percentage of revenue compared to the year ended December 31, 2022, as we continue to leverage headcount efficiencies.

Our effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the change in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, non-deductible officers' compensation and state income taxes, partially offset by tax benefits from stock-based compensation and research and development tax credits. Our effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the change in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets and tax benefits from research and development credits.
The increase in our effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, is primarily due to the significant increase in our pre-tax income and increase in tax expense attributable to the change in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, higher non-deductible officers’ compensation, state income taxes, and capitalized research and development expenses as required by a change in U.S. tax law effective January 1, 2022. The decrease in our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 is primarily attributable to the decrease in our pre-tax losses and increase in tax expense for similar reasons aforementioned.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity continue to be cash, cash equivalents, and investment securities totaling $164.0 million, as well as cash flows generated from our operations. We have financed our operations primarily through cash generated from operations. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, and cash generated from operating activities will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months.
Capital Requirements
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including continued market acceptance of our software solutions, changes in the number of our customers, adoption and utilization of our Value Added Services by new and existing customers, the timing and extent of the introduction of new core functionality, products and Value Added Services, and the timing and extent of our investments across our organization. In addition, we have in the past entered into, and may in the future enter into, arrangements to acquire or invest in new technologies or markets adjacent to those we serve today. Furthermore, our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of shares of our Class A common stock from time to time. To date, we have repurchased $4.2 million of our Class A common stock under the share repurchase program.

Operating Activities
Our primary source of operating cash inflows is cash collected from our customers in connection with their use of our core solutions and Value Added Services. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are for personnel-related expenditures and third-party costs incurred to support the delivery of our software solutions.
The net decrease in cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year, was primarily due to the payment of separation costs in the second quarter of 2023 related to our former Chief Executive Officer's Separation Agreement, partially offset by changes in working capital levels.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities is generally composed of purchases of investment securities, maturities and sales of investment securities, purchases of property and equipment, and additions to capitalized software development.
The net increase in cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year, was primarily due to higher purchases of available-for-sale investment securities.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities is generally composed of net share settlements for employee tax withholdings associated with the vesting of equity awards offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates described in our Annual Report that have had a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes.
Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosure about Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Investment Securities
As of June 30, 2023, we had $139.3 million of investment securities consisting of United States government agency securities, corporate bonds, and treasury securities. The primary objective of investing in securities is to support our liquidity and capital needs. We did not purchase these investments for trading or speculative purposes and have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risk exposure.
Our investment securities are exposed to market risk due to interest rate fluctuations. While fluctuations in interest rates do not impact our interest income from our investment securities as all of these securities have fixed interest rates, changes in interest rates may impact the fair value of the investment securities. Since our investment securities are held as available for sale, all changes in fair value impact our other comprehensive (loss) income unless an investment security is considered impaired in which case changes in fair value are reported in other expense. As of June 30, 2023, a hypothetical 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would have resulted in an increase in the fair value of our investment securities of approximately $0.6 million and a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates would have resulted in a decrease in the fair value of our investment securities of approximately $0.6 million. This estimate is based on a sensitivity model which measures an instant change in interest rates by 100 basis points at June 30, 2023.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the supervision and participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. 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 provide reasonable assurance 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 other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance 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 officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on our management's evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are involved in various investigative inquiries, legal proceedings and other disputes arising from or related to matters incident to the ordinary course of our business activities, including actions with respect to intellectual property, employment, labor, regulatory and contractual matters. Although the results of such investigative inquiries, legal proceedings and other disputes cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that we are not currently a party to any matters which, if determined adversely to us, would, individually or taken together, have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition or cash flows. However, regardless of the merit of any matters raised or the ultimate outcome, investigative inquiries, legal proceedings and other disputes may generally have an adverse impact on us as a result of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
An investment in our Class A common stock involves risks. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider all of the information in this Quarterly Report, including in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes. In addition, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, which was filed with the SEC on February 9, 2023, as well as in our other public filings with the SEC. If any of the identified risks are realized, our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our Class A common stock may decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. In addition, other risks of which we are currently unaware, or which we do not currently view as material, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. As of the date of this report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in the Annual Report. We may, however, disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

Item 5. Other Information
On May 5, 2023, Janet Kerr, a member of our Board of Directors, entered into a prearranged stock selling plan for the sale of up to 1,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock between August 4, 2023 and December 31, 2023 (the "Sale Period"). Ms. Kerr's trading plan was entered into during an open insider trading window and is intended to satisfy the affirmative defense of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Company's policies regarding insider transactions.
