Overview
We founded Domo in 2010 with the vision of digitally connecting everyone within the enterprise with real-time, rich, relevant data and then enabling all employees to collaborate and act on that data. We realized that many organizations were unable to access the massive amounts of data that they were collecting in siloed cloud applications and on-premise databases. Furthermore, even for organizations that were capable of accessing their data, the process for doing so was time-consuming, costly, and often resulted in the data being out-of-date by the time it reached decision makers. The delivery format, including alert functionality, and devices were not adequate for the connected and real-time mobile workforce. Based on these observations, it was apparent that all organizations, regardless of size or industry, were failing to unlock the power of all of their people, data, and systems. To address these challenges, we provide a modern cloud-based AI and data products platform that digitally connects everyone at an organization - from the CEO to frontline employees - with all the people, data and systems in an organization, giving them access to real-time data and insights and allowing them to build data products that generate measurable value for the business.
Business leaders, department heads and managers are typically initial subscribers to our platform, deploying Domo to solve a business problem or enable departmental access. Over time, as customers recognize the value of our platform, we engage with CIOs and other executives to facilitate broader adoption.
We primarily offer our platform, which customers can adopt in whole or in part, as a consumption-based service, which includes consumption-based agreements and enterprise-wide agreements (ELAs) with unlimited users and a data cap. Customers with consumption-based agreements have an annual purchase commitment based on estimated usage, utilizing a tiered pricing structure, which is paid upfront. Historically, we also offered subscription-based agreements, under which subscription fees are based upon the chosen Domo package which includes tier-based platform capabilities or usage. As of the end of our most recent fiscal quarter, 91% of our annual recurring revenue (ARR) was utilizing the platform as a consumption-based service.
As of July 31, 2026, 77% of our customers were under multi-year contracts on a dollar-weighted basis, compared to 76% of customers as of January 31, 2026. The high percentage revenue from multi-year contracts, among both new and existing customers, has enhanced the predictability of our subscription revenue, which includes both subscription-based and consumption-based agreements. We typically invoice our customers annually in advance for subscriptions to our platform.
Remaining performance obligations (RPO) represents the remaining amount of revenue we expect to recognize from existing non-cancelable contracts, whether billed or unbilled. As of July 31, 2025 and 2026, total RPO was $430.9 million and $410.8 million, respectively. The amount of RPO expected to be recognized as revenue in the next twelve months was $236.4 million and $231.5 million as of July 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively.
We had total revenue of $79.7 million and $76.8 million for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively. For the six months ended July 31, 2025 and 2026, we had total revenue of $159.8 million and $156.2 million, respectively. For the six months ended July 31, 2025 and 2026, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of our total
revenue, nor did any single organization when accounting for multiple subsidiaries or divisions which may have been invoiced separately. Revenue from customers with billing addresses in the United States comprised 80% and 79% or our total revenue for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively.
We have incurred significant net losses since our inception, including net losses of $22.9 million and $9.6 million for the three months ended July 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively, and had an accumulated deficit of $1,570.7 million at July 31, 2026.
Impact of Macroeconomic Conditions
Prevailing macroeconomic conditions have elongated the software sales cycle, increased deal scrutiny and made renewal discussions more challenging. These conditions may continue to impact our business and those of our customers in a manner that we may not be able to quantify or isolate from other drivers of our performance, and may negatively impact our revenue growth in the near term. Ongoing concerns about the health of the U.S. and global economies may cause certain of our current and potential customers to reduce or delay technology spending or seek payment or other concessions from us. These conditions, along with the ongoing uncertainty in the SaaS sector, may materially and negatively impact our operating results, financial condition and prospects. In response to these dynamics, we have taken and intend to continue to take steps to better align our sales team and focus on controlling costs.
Factors Affecting Performance
Continue to Attract New Customers
We believe that our ability to expand our customer base is an important indicator of market penetration, the growth of our business, and future business opportunities. We define a customer at the end of any particular quarter as an entity that generated revenue greater than $2,500 during that quarter. In situations where an organization has multiple subsidiaries or divisions, each entity that is invoiced at a separate billing address is treated as a separate customer. In cases where customers purchase through a reseller, each end customer is counted separately. We define enterprise customers as companies with over $1 billion in revenue, and companies with less than $1 billion in revenue are corporate customers. In order to maintain comparability, companies who become customers with revenue below $1 billion and subsequently exceed that threshold are considered enterprise customers for all periods presented.
As of July 31, 2026, we had over 2,300 customers. Enterprise customers accounted for 44% of our revenue for both the three and six months ended July 31, 2025 and 2026. To drive growth among both our enterprise and corporate customers, we intend to further develop our partner ecosystem by establishing agreements with more software resellers, systems integrators and other partners to provide broader customer and geographic coverage. We believe we are underpenetrated in the overall market and have significant opportunity to expand our customer base over time.
Customer Upsell and Retention
We employ a land, expand, and retain sales model, and our performance depends on our ability to retain customers and expand the use of our platform at existing customers over time. It currently takes multiple years for our customers to fully embrace the power of our platform. We are still in the early stages of expanding within many of our customers. Under consumption-based pricing, our customers have access to all features offered on our platform, which allows for increased discoverability across the entire customer organization. We believe that as customers continue to deploy greater volumes and sources of data for multiple use cases under our consumption-based pricing model, the unique features of our platform can address the needs of everyone within their organization.
Our ability to successfully upsell and the impact of cancellations may vary from period to period. The extent of this variability depends on a number of factors including the size and timing of upsells and cancellations relative to the initial subscriptions.
We have invested in platform capabilities and online support resources that allow our customers to expand the use of our platform in a self-guided manner. Our professional services, customer support and customer success functions also support our sales force by helping customers to successfully deploy our platform and implement additional use cases. In addition, our partner ecosystem has become increasingly important over time. We work closely with our customers to drive increased engagement with our platform by identifying new use cases through our customer success teams, as well as in-platform, self-guided experiences. We actively engage with our customers to assess whether they are satisfied and fully realizing the benefits of our platform. While these efforts often require a substantial commitment and upfront costs, we believe our
investment in product, customer support, customer success and professional services will create opportunities to expand our customer relationships over time.
Our ability to drive growth and generate incremental revenue depends heavily on our ability to retain our customers and increase their usage of our platform. With that objective in mind, we allocate our customer success and customer support resources to align with maximizing the retention and expansion of our subscription revenue.
An important metric that we use to evaluate our performance in retaining customers is gross retention rate. We calculate our gross retention rate by taking the dollar amount of annual contract value (ACV) that renews in a given period divided by the ACV that was up for renewal in that same period. The ACV of multi-year contracts is also considered in the calculation based on the period in which the annual anniversary of the contract falls. Our trailing twelve month gross retention rate was 85% and 86% as of July 31, 2025 and 2026, respectively. Our gross retention has been affected in part due to macroeconomic conditions and challenging renewals from customers with COVID-19 use cases of our platform.
Sales and Marketing Efficiency
We are focused on increasing the efficiency of our sales force and marketing activities by enhancing account targeting, messaging, field sales operations and sales training in order to accelerate the adoption of our platform. Our sales strategy depends on our ability to continue to attract and retain top talent, to increase our pipeline of business, and to enhance sales productivity. We focus on productivity per quota-carrying sales representative and the time it takes our sales representatives to reach full productivity.
We manage our pipeline by sales representative to ensure sufficient coverage of our sales targets. Our ability to manage our sales productivity and pipeline are important factors to the success of our business. We have taken steps to better align our sales and marketing spending and headcount to efficiently grow and attract new customers.
Sales and marketing expense as a percentage of total revenue was 44% for the three months ended July 31, 2025 compared to 38% for the three months ended July 31, 2026.
Leverage Research and Development Investments for Future Growth
We plan to continue to make investments in areas of our business to continue to expand our platform functionality. This may include investing in machine learning algorithms, predictive analytics, and other artificial intelligence technologies to create alerts, detect anomalies, optimize queries, and suggest areas of interest to help people focus on what matters most. These investments may also include extending the functionality and effectiveness of our platform through improvements to the Domo Appstore and developer toolkits, which enable customers and partners to quickly build and deploy custom applications. The amount of new investments as a percentage of revenue required to achieve our plans is expected to increase slightly in the near term then remain consistent in the long term.
Research and development expense as a percentage of total revenue was 24% for the three months ended July 31, 2025 compared to 23% for the three months ended July 31, 2026.
Key Business Metric
Billings
Billings represent our total revenue plus the change in deferred revenue in a period. Billings reflect sales to new customers plus subscription renewals and upsells to existing customers, and represent amounts invoiced for subscription, support and professional services. We typically invoice our customers annually in advance for subscriptions to our platform. Because we generate most of our revenue from customers who are invoiced on an annual basis and have a wide range of annual contract values, we may experience variability due to typical enterprise buying patterns and timing of large initial contracts, renewals and upsells.
The following table sets forth our billings for the three and six months ended July 31, 2025 and 2026:

Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
We derive our revenue primarily from subscription revenue, which consists of consumption-based agreements and subscription-based agreements for our cloud-based platform. We also sell professional services.
Consumption-based agreements utilize a tiered pricing structure for an annual purchase commitment based upon an estimated volume of usage. Revenue from the annual purchase commitment in consumption-based agreements is recognized ratably over the related contractual term of the contract. Amounts for the annual purchase commitments do not carry over beyond each annual commitment period. Revenue from subscription-based agreements is a function of customers, platform tier, number of users, price per user, and transaction and data volumes. Revenue is recognized ratably over the related contractual term beginning on the date that the platform is made available to a customer. We recognize revenue ratably because the customer receives and consumes the benefits of the platform throughout the contract period.
Professional services and other revenue primarily consists of implementation services sold with new subscriptions, as well as professional services sold separately, including training and education. Professional services are generally billed in advance and revenue from these arrangements is recognized as the services are performed. Our professional services engagements typically span from a few weeks to several months.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of subscription revenue consists primarily of third-party hosting services and data center capacity; salaries, benefits, bonuses and stock-based compensation, or employee-related costs, directly associated with cloud infrastructure and customer support personnel; amortization expense associated with capitalized software development costs; depreciation expense associated with computer equipment and software; certain fees paid to various third parties for the use of their technology and services; and allocated overhead. Allocated overhead includes items such as information technology infrastructure, rent, and certain employee benefit costs.
Cost of professional services and other revenue consists primarily of employee-related costs directly associated with these services, third-party consultant fees, and allocated overhead.
Operating Expenses
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of employee-related costs directly associated with our sales and marketing staff and commissions. Other sales and marketing costs include digital marketing programs and promotional events to promote our brand, including Domopalooza, our annual user conference, as well as tradeshows, advertising and allocated overhead. Contract acquisition costs, including sales commissions, are deferred and then amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of benefit, which we have determined to be approximately four years for initial contracts. Contract acquisition costs related to renewal contracts and professional services are recorded as expense when incurred if the period of benefit is one year or less. If the period of benefit is greater than one year, costs are deferred and then amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of benefit, which we have determined to be two years.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses consist primarily of employee-related costs for the design and development of our platform, contractor costs to supplement staff levels, third-party web services, consulting services, and allocated overhead. Our cycle of frequent updates has facilitated rapid innovation and the introduction of new product features throughout our history. We capitalize certain software development costs that are attributable to developing new features and adding incremental functionality to our platform, and amortize such costs as costs of subscription revenue over the estimated life of the new feature or incremental functionality, which is generally three years.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist of employee-related costs for executive, finance, legal, human resources, recruiting and administrative personnel; professional fees for external legal, accounting, recruiting and other consulting services; and allocated overhead costs.
Total Other Expense, Net
Total other expense, net consists of remeasurement of warrant liability, and other expense, net. Other expense, net consists primarily of interest expense related to long-term debt. It also includes the effect of exchange rates on foreign currency transaction gains and losses, foreign currency gains and losses upon remeasurement of intercompany balances, and
interest income. The transactional impacts of foreign currency are recorded as foreign currency losses (gains) in the consolidated statements of operations.
Income Taxes
Income taxes consist primarily of income taxes related to foreign and state jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Because of the uncertainty of the realization of the deferred tax assets, we have a full valuation allowance for domestic net deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carryforwards and tax credits related primarily to research and development.

Subscription revenue decreased primarily due to a $8.3 million net decrease from existing customers, partially offset by a $5.9 million increase from new customers. Our total customer count decreased from July 31, 2025 to July 31, 2026. For the purposes of this comparison, new customers are defined as those added since the end of the prior year quarter, and revenue from existing customers is presented net of churn. Professional services and other revenue decreased primarily due to the delivery of certain other contracts recognized in the prior year quarter.

The decrease in subscription cost of revenue was primarily due to a $2.1 million decrease in our third-party web hosting services, partially as a result of a one-time credit received and a $1.2 million decrease in employee-related costs, partially offset by other minor increases.
The increase in professional services and other cost of revenue was primarily due to a $0.2 million increase in employee-related costs.
Subscription gross margin increased primarily due to a decrease in costs related to third-party web hosting services.
Services gross margin declined primarily due to the delivery of certain other high-margin contracts recognized in the prior year quarter and an increase in outsourced services during the three months ended July 31, 2026.

General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to a $4.1 million increase in professional and legal fees, primarily driven by a $5.0 million increase in transaction-related costs. This was partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in
travel-related costs, a $0.2 million decrease in employee related costs, a $0.2 decrease in contract labor, and other minor decreases. Our general and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of revenue from 16% to 19%.

Remeasurement of warrant liability increased due to a revaluation of warrant liability, which resulted in a $10.2 million net change during the three months ended July 31, 2026.
Other expense, net increased primarily due to a $2.2 million increase in interest expense related to the increased amortization from the Forbearance Fee and accelerated amortization period arising from the debt modification.
We expect interest expense to increase in the near term due to an increasing principal balance and as a result of the June 2026 modification to the credit facility and related amortization of the forbearance fee over its remaining life.

The decrease in subscription revenue was primarily due to a $12.5 million net decrease from existing customers, partially offset by a $8.5 million increase from new customers. Our total customer count decreased from July 31, 2025 to July 31, 2026. For the purposes of this comparison, new customers are defined as those added since the end of the prior year quarter,
and revenue from existing customers is presented net of churn. The decrease in professional services and other revenue was primarily due to the delivery of certain other contracts recognized in the prior year quarter.

The decrease in cost of subscription revenue was primarily due to a $2.7 million decrease in expense related to third-party web hosting services, partially as a result of a one-time credit received during the period.
Cost of professional services and other revenue decreased primarily due to an increase in employee-related costs, partially offset by a decrease in outsourced services.
Subscription gross margin improved primarily due to a decrease in third-party web hosting costs. Professional services and other gross margin declined slightly primarily due to a lower amount of revenue recognized from the delivery of custom apps and an increase in outsourced services during the six months ended July 31, 2026.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased primarily due to a $4.9 million decrease in commission expense, partially driven by certain commissions paid out in the form of fully vested restricted stock units (RSUs) during the current period and also due in part to lower commissions. The decrease in commission expense is partially offset within employee-related costs where the expense for those fully-vested RSUs are included in stock-based compensation; however, employee-related costs had a net increase of $0.6 million due to other decreases in stock-based compensation. Marketing expense decreased by $3.7 million, driven by lower demand generation.
Research and development expenses decreased primarily due to a $4.1 million decrease in employee-related costs, driven by lower stock-based compensation. This was partially offset by a $1.5 million increase to software costs and a $1.5 million
decrease in capitalized software (increases expense). During the period, a $0.9 million benefit was recognized related to an insurance recovery (decreases expense).
General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to a $4.3 million increase in professional and legal fees, driven by $5.0 million of transaction-related costs. This was partially offset by a $0.9 million increase in travel costs and various other minor decreases.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of July 31, 2026, we had $25.1 million of cash and cash equivalents, which were held for working capital purposes. Our cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash and money market funds. We have a $125.3 million credit facility, all of which had been drawn as of July 31, 2026.
Since inception, we have financed operations primarily from cash collected from customers for our subscriptions and services, periodic sales of convertible preferred stock, our initial public offering and to a lesser extent, debt financing. Our principal uses of cash have consisted of employee-related costs, marketing programs and events, payments related to hosting our cloud-based platform and purchases of short-term investments.
As of July 31, 2026, we were not in compliance with the minimum annualized recurring revenue covenant under our credit facility. As a result, the lenders have the right to accelerate repayment of the $138.3 million of principal and related fees, and we have classified the related term loan and fees as a current liability as of July 31, 2026. Our cash and cash equivalents of $25.1 million as of July 31, 2026 would not be sufficient to repay the term loan upon any such acceleration. As a result, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern.
In connection with the covenant noncompliance described above, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with its lenders, under which the lenders agreed to forbear from exercising their rights and remedies with respect to the noncompliance and certain other specified and anticipated defaults during a limited forbearance period, subject to certain conditions. The forbearance does not waive the underlying default and does not change the classification of the term loan, which remains a current liability, and upon its expiration the lenders may exercise their rights and remedies, including acceleration. See Note 12, "Debt," for further details.
The forbearance period is contingent on the Company's pursuit and completion of a potential transaction, including the Company's entry into a definitive purchase agreement by July 31, 2026 and the completion of a transaction no later than November 30, 2026.
On July 22, 2026, the Company entered into a definitive Purchase Agreement with Progress for the Asset Sale. The transaction was unanimously approved by the Company's board of directors and by the holders of a majority of the voting power of the Company's outstanding capital stock, who delivered a written consent adopting the Purchase Agreement on July 22, 2026. No further approval of the Company's stockholders is required to complete the transaction. Completion of the transaction remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions, as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement contains no financing condition. The transaction is expected to close by the end of September 2026 and no later than November 30, 2026.
Management's plans to mitigate the going concern condition described above are focused on completing the Asset Sale. The execution of the Asset Sale depends on factors outside the Company's control, and there can be no assurance that any of these plans will be entered into or completed on acceptable terms, or at all. Accordingly, management has concluded that these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. See Note 1, "Liquidity and Going Concern," to our condensed consolidated financial statements. If we are unable to obtain sufficient liquidity, the lenders could accelerate our indebtedness and foreclose on our assets, and our business, financial condition and ability to continue operations would be materially and adversely affected.
On September 6, 2024, we entered into a Controlled Equity OfferingSM Sales Agreement (Sales Agreement) with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (Cantor). Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, we may sell, from time to time up to an aggregate of $150.0 million of our Class B common stock through an "at-the-market" offering defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. We will pay Cantor a commission equal to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of our Class B common stock under the Sales Agreement. The $150.0 million of Class B common stock that may be offered, issued and sold under the Sales Agreement is included in the $300.0 million of securities that may be offered, issued and sold by us under our registration statement on Form S-3 that was effective on September 20, 2024. No shares have been sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement to date.
Credit Facility
We have a credit facility that permits up to $125.3 million in term loan borrowings, all of which had been drawn as of July 31, 2026. The credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets.
In February 2024, we entered into an amendment to the credit facility which extended the maturity date for the outstanding loan from April 1, 2025 to April 1, 2026 and made certain modifications to the financial covenants. In conjunction with this amendment, we issued 189,036 fully-vested warrants to purchase shares of our Class B common stock.
In August 2024, we entered into an amendment to the credit facility which refinanced the existing term loans, extended the maturity date from April 1, 2026 to August 19, 2028, revised interest amounts payable in cash and payable in kind, and made certain modifications to the financial covenants. Furthermore, certain lenders participating in the credit facility were paid in full for their portion of the principal, PIK interest, and amendment fee and were replaced by new lenders who refinanced those amounts. We paid and subsequently refinanced the $7.0 million closing fee associated with the credit facility, resulting in no net impact to our cash balance. Additionally, the $5.0 million amendment fee from the August 2020 amendment plus $2.3 million of accrued PIK interest, totaling $7.3 million, was refinanced as the Second PIK Amendment Fee per the August 2024 amendment. The Second PIK Amendment Fee accrues interest at a rate of 9.5% per year and is due upon maturity, along with the related capitalized interest. Also in conjunction with this amendment, we issued 1,022,918 fully-vested warrants to purchase shares of our Class B common stock. These warrants have an exercise price of $0.01 per share and expire on August 19, 2028.
The credit facility requires interest-only payments on a portion of the accrued interest until the maturity date. This payable portion of the interest that accrues on the outstanding principal of the term loan is due in cash on a monthly basis, which, as of July 31, 2026, accrued at a floating rate equal to the greater of (1) 8.0% and (2) Adjusted Term SOFR. Adjusted Term SOFR is defined as the greater of (a) 2.5% and (b) Term SOFR. In the event that SOFR is unavailable, interest will accrue at a floating rate equal to the greater of (1) 7.0% and (2) the Alternate Base Rate plus 2.75% per year. The Alternate Base Rate is defined as the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate (b) Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.5% and (c) Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.0%. The Federal Funds Effective rate is defined as the rate published by the Federal Reserve System as the overnight rate, or, if such rate is not so published, the average of the quotations for the day for such transaction received by Administrative Agent from three Federal funds brokers. As of July 31, 2026, the cash interest rate was approximately 6.6%.
In addition to the 6.6% cash interest rate, a fixed rate equal to 5.0% per year accrues on the outstanding principal of the term loan. This capitalized portion of the interest is added to the principal amount of the outstanding term loan on a monthly basis and is due upon maturity.
The credit facility contains customary conditions to borrowing, events of default and covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to dispose of assets, make material changes to the nature, control or location of the business, merge with or acquire other entities, incur indebtedness or encumbrances, make distributions to holders of our capital stock, make certain investments or enter into transactions with affiliates. In addition, we are required to comply with a minimum annualized recurring revenue covenant (as defined by the credit facility), tested quarterly. The credit facility defines annualized recurring revenue as four times our aggregate revenue for the immediately preceding quarter (net of recurring discounts and discounts for periods greater than one year) less the annual contract value of any customer contracts pursuant to which we were advised during such quarter would not be renewed at the end of the current term plus the annual contract value of existing customer contract increases during such quarter. We are also required to comply with a minimum trailing 12-month consolidated EBITDA covenant (as defined by the credit facility), which is tested quarterly, and adhere to a monthly minimum liquidity covenant (as defined by the credit facility) that requires unrestricted cash on a consolidated basis of $25.0 million deposited in pledged accounts located in the United States. Noncompliance with these covenants, or the occurrence of certain other events specified in the credit facility, constitutes an event of default under the loan agreement, upon which the lenders may declare any outstanding principal, interest and fees immediately due and payable. We were in compliance with the covenant terms of the credit facility on January 31, 2026. As of July 31, 2026, we were not in compliance with the minimum annualized recurring revenue covenant and we have not obtained a waiver. As a result, we have classified the outstanding term loan as a current liability as of April 30, 2026 and we continued to classify it as a current liability as of July 31, 2026. See Note 1, "Liquidity and Going Concern," and Note 12, "Debt," to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States or GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that are inherently uncertain and that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or results of operations would be affected. We base our estimates on past experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, and we evaluate these estimates on an ongoing basis. Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that we consider critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management's judgments and estimates.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information regarding our significant accounting policies.
