Executive Summary




We are the world's leading cloud software company powering social good. Serving
the entire social good community-nonprofits, higher education institutions, K-12
schools, healthcare organizations, faith communities, arts and cultural
organizations, foundations, companies and individual change agents-we connect
and empower organizations to increase their impact through cloud software,
services, expertise and data intelligence. Our portfolio is tailored to the
unique needs of vertical markets, with solutions for fundraising and CRM,
marketing, advocacy, peer-to-peer fundraising, corporate social responsibility
(CSR) and environmental, social and governance (ESG), school management,
ticketing, grantmaking, financial management, payment processing and analytics.
Serving the industry for more than four decades, we are a remote-first company
headquartered in Charleston, South Carolina, with operations in the United
States, Australia, Canada, Costa Rica and the United Kingdom.

Our revenue is primarily generated from the following sources: (i) charging for
the use of our software solutions in cloud and hosted environments;
(ii) providing payment and transactional services; (iii) providing software
maintenance and support services; (iv) providing Impact-as-a-Service™ digital
educational content; and (v) providing professional services, including
implementation, consulting, training, analytic and other services.

COVID-19 Impact



The economic impact of COVID-19 on the social good industry remains somewhat
uncertain, although we are seeing signs of recovery in the industry. Our end
markets continue to display resilience in the post-pandemic recovery with a
digital-first mindset. In February 2022, the Blackbaud Institute released its
annual Charitable Giving Report, which reported that overall giving in 2021 grew
9% with the percent of giving done online up significantly from pre-pandemic
levels and holding steady in the low-teens. Nearly 30% of those online donations
are being made on a mobile device, which we see as a long-term positive as we
equip organizations to process mobile donations and optimize mobile user
interfaces. If our existing and prospective customers remain cautious in their
purchase decisions, our operating environment may continue to be challenging.
Notwithstanding these conditions, we remain focused on continuing to execute our
four-point strategy and strengthening our leadership position.

1.Expand Total Addressable Market ("TAM")



In December 2021, we doubled our TAM when we acquired EVERFI, an industry leader
in global social impact technology. Adding EVERFI advances our position as a
leader in the rapidly evolving ESG and CSR spaces and offers cross-selling and
upselling opportunities through complementary product offerings with YourCause®
solutions. Our TAM now stands at over $20 billion, and we remain active in the
evaluation of opportunities to further expand our addressable market through
acquisitions and internal product development.

2.Lead with World Class Teams and Operations



This strategy expands upon our previous strategies to drive sales effectiveness
and improve operating efficiency to include improving overall company
performance as measured by the Rule of 40 (see discussion of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures below). We recently announced a series of strategic organizational
updates to streamline our business operations and become even more customer
centric. We created three new roles: Chief Operating Officer, Chief Commercial
Officer and Executive Vice President of Corporations. We believe the
appointments for these new roles will: ensure consistency in our approach to the
customer experience; further streamline and simplify our go-to-market efforts to
maximize our outcomes as a global company; and further align our YourCause and
EVERFI offerings and continue our investment in being the partner of choice for
corporations focused on social responsibility and impact. We also recently
appointed a new member to our board of directors, who brings over 20 years of
experience in technology and cybersecurity to our board.

3.Delight Customers with Innovative Cloud Solutions



We are excited about the role Blackbaud is playing in developing innovative
solutions for our customers to diversify the way they receive and process
donations. Recently, we announced the launch of Prospect Insights-a new software
tool within Raiser's Edge NXT that automates in-app intelligence related to
major giving likelihood and capacity, and then prescribes actions related to
portfolio management and solicitation. Also, in June 2022, we held our annual
developer conference focusing on the low-code movement and accessible technology
with a high number of attendees. Feedback from the conference showed that a
significant majority of attendees left feeling that Blackbaud empowers customers
to improve usage and experience with our solutions.

4.Focus on Employees, Culture and ESG Initiatives



We recently announced that we achieved carbon neutrality for 2021. This is a
goal we have been striving towards and our shift to a remote-first workforce
enabled us to accelerate our timeline. Since 2019, Blackbaud has reduced its
global real estate footprint by 50%, energy emissions to run office space by 63%
and employee commute emissions by 75%. With a multi-pronged climate strategy,
Blackbaud is focused on reducing emissions, using energy efficiently and
investing in environmental projects for a more sustainable future. We shared
more about our ESG strategy on our Corporate Social Responsibility website
during the second quarter. Our mission driven culture has been in our DNA since
inception and is very attractive in a competitive labor market. We continue to
foster a diverse and inclusive environment focused on employee engagement and
connectedness with our remote-first workforce strategy. We have a significant
role to play in driving advances in the social good space, and we are proud of
the strong corporate culture we have built and continue to cultivate in today's
environment.

Total revenue increased by $35.5 million and $73.4 million during the three and
six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, when compared to the same periods
in 2021, driven largely by the following:

+ Growth in recurring revenue primarily related to:


                  •increases in contractual recurring revenue of $26.2

million and $53.9 million,


                  respectively, related to the performance of our cloud 

solutions, of which $23.4


                  million and $47.5 million, respectively, was attributable 

to EVERFI; partially


                  offset by decreases in maintenance revenue as customers 

migrate to our cloud


                  solutions; also offsetting the increases in contractual 

recurring revenue are


                  decreases related to fluctuations in foreign currency 

exchange rates of $0.8


                  million and $1.1 million, respectively; and
                  •increases in transactional recurring revenue of $9.3

million and $19.5 million,


                  respectively, primarily due to an increase in online 

charitable giving, the


                  continued shift toward virtual fundraising and, to a 

lesser extent, increased


                  transactional volume as our customer's constituents have 

begun to return to


                  in-person events; partially offset by decreases related 

to fluctuations in foreign


                  currency exchange rates of $1.8 million and $2.3 million, 

respectively.

+ Increases in one-time consulting revenue due primarily to our acquisition of


                  EVERFI, largely offset by a decrease in implementation 

and customization services,


                  in line with our multi-year strategic shift from a 

license-based and one-time


                  services business model to a cloud subscription business 

model. Our cloud


                  subscription offerings generally require less

implementation and customization


                  services.

- Decreases in one-time analytics revenue as analytics are generally integrated in


                  our cloud solutions


We currently expect that fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates will
have a significant negative impact on our total revenue for the full year 2022.
Our latest projections suggest some softness in our full year 2022 bookings plan
for EVERFI, which has minimal impact on our full year 2022 revenues given the
ratable revenue recognition. We will be intently focused on closing the EVERFI
bookings gap during the remainder of 2022. Additionally, we currently expect
one-time services and other revenue to be relatively flat during 2022 when
compared to 2021, inclusive of incremental one-time revenue expected from
EVERFI.

Income from operations decreased by $13.0 million and $25.6 million during the
three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, when compared to the
same periods in 2021, driven largely by the following:

      -           Increases in compensation costs other than stock-based 

compensation of $17.0 million


                  and $40.8 million, respectively, primarily due to 

increased employee headcount due to


                  our acquisition of EVERFI
      -           Increases in Security Incident-related expenses, net of

insurance, of $7.9 million


                  and $15.1 million, respectively. See "Security Incident 

update" below.


      -           Increases in third-party contractor costs of $7.0 million

and $14.8 million,


                  respectively, and hosting costs of $1.9 million and $4.6

million, respectively,


                  primarily attributable to our acquisition of EVERFI and, 

to a lesser extent, our


                  continued migration of our cloud infrastructure to 

leading public cloud service


                  providers and investments in security
      -           Increases in transaction-based costs of $4.2 million and

$9.3 million, respectively,


                  related to the increase in the volume of transactions for 

which we process payments


      -           Increases in amortization of intangible assets from 

business combinations of $3.8


                  million and $7.4 million, respectively, due to our 

acquisition of EVERFI


      -           Increases in infrastructure and building costs of $3.0

million and $4.2 million,


                  respectively, primarily related to our acquisition of 

EVERFI and investments in


                  security tools
      -           A $2.3 million noncash impairment charge during the three

and six months ended

June 30, 2022, against previously capitalized software 

development costs that reduced


                  the carrying value of those assets to zero. The 

impairment charge resulted primarily


                  from our decision to end customer support for certain 

solutions


      -           Increases in acquisition and disposition-related costs of

$2.2 million and $3.2


                  million, respectively, primarily related to a $2.0

million noncash impairment of


                  certain insignificant intangible assets held for sale
      -           Increases in marketing costs of $1.8 million and $4.0

million, respectively,


                  primarily due to our acquisition of EVERFI
      -           Increases in travel costs of $1.7 million and $2.6

million, respectively, due to our


                  easing of restrictions on non-essential employee travel, 

which went into effect


                  during March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic
      +           Increases in total revenue, as described above
      +           Decreases in stock-based compensation expense of $2.7

million and $4.8 million,


                  respectively, attributable to:
                  •A decrease in the grant date fair value of our annual 

equity awards granted to


                  employees during 2022 compared to 2021; and
                  •As a one-time response to COVID-19, replacement of our 

2020 base salary merit


                  increases with one-year time-based equity awards, which 

vested and were recognized as


                  expense between May 1, 2020 and May 1, 2021.


We are continuing to make critical investments in the business in areas such as
digital marketing, engineering, security, customer success and our continued
shift of cloud infrastructure to leading public cloud service providers. Our
profitability through the second quarter reflects the addition of EVERFI and
some of these incremental investments that were pushed from 2021 into 2022,
particularly in areas where we are increasing headcount.

We continuously seek opportunities to optimize our portfolio of solutions to
focus time and resources on innovation that will have the greatest impact for
our customers and the markets we serve, and drive the highest return on
investment. To that end, we will continue to simplify and rationalize our
portfolio through product sunsets and divestitures of non-core businesses and
technologies.

 Customer retention

[[Image Removed: blkb-20220630_g8.jpg]]



Our recurring revenue contracts are generally for a term of three years at
contract inception with one to three-year renewals thereafter. We anticipate a
continued decrease in maintenance contract renewals as we transition our
solution portfolio and maintenance customers from a perpetual license-based
model to a cloud subscription delivery model. In the long term, we also
anticipate an increase in recurring subscription contract renewals as we
continue focusing on innovation, quality and the integration of our cloud
solutions, which we believe will provide value-adding capabilities to better
address our customers' needs. Due primarily to these factors, we believe a
recurring revenue customer retention measure that combines recurring
subscription, maintenance and recurring service customer contracts provides a
better representation of our customers' overall behavior. For the twelve months
ended June 30, 2022, approximately 92% of our customers with recurring revenue
contracts were retained. This customer retention rate is materially unchanged
from our rate for the full year ended December 31, 2021 and reflects our
continuing efforts to rationalize our portfolio of solutions and migrate
customers from legacy solutions towards our next generation solutions.


Balance sheet and cash flow

At June 30, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents were $29.0 million and the carrying amount of our debt under the 2020 Credit Facility was $880.9 million. Our net leverage ratio was 3.42 to 1.00.



During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we generated $81.8 million in cash
from operations, had a net decrease in borrowings of $16.3 million, had
aggregate cash outlays of $34.7 million for purchases of property and equipment
and capitalized software and content development costs, and spent $19.0 million
on the purchase of EVERFI solely due to the timing of the acquisition on the
last day of 2021.

Security Incident update

As discussed in Note 10 to our unaudited, condensed consolidated financial
statements included in this report, total costs related to the Security Incident
that we expect will be recoverable has exceeded the limit of our insurance
coverage. Accordingly, we expect that the Security Incident will continue to
negatively impact our GAAP profitability and GAAP cash flow for the foreseeable
future (see discussion regarding our non-GAAP financial measures beginning on
page   36  ). For full year 2022, we currently expect net pre-tax expense of
approximately $30 million to $35 million for ongoing legal fees related to the
Security Incident. In line with our policy, legal fees are expensed as incurred.
For full year 2022, we currently expect net cash outlays of approximately $15
million to $25 million for ongoing legal fees related to the Security Incident.
We have not recorded a liability for a loss contingency related to the Security
Incident as of June 30, 2022 because we are unable at this time to reasonably
estimate the possible loss or range of loss.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021



We have included the results of operations of EVERFI in our consolidated results
of operations from the date of acquisition on December 31, 2022. We determined
that the EVERFI acquisition was not material to our consolidated financial
statements; therefore, separate presentation of revenue and earnings since the
acquisition date is not required.

Recurring revenue is comprised of fees for the use of our subscription-based
software solutions, which includes providing access to cloud solutions,
Impact-as-a-Service™ digital educational content, hosting services, payment
services, online training programs, subscription-based analytic services.
Recurring revenue also includes fees from maintenance services for our
on-premises solutions, services included in our renewable subscription
contracts, retained and managed services contracts that we expect to have a term
consistent with our cloud solution contracts, and variable transaction revenue
associated with the use of our solutions.

Cost of recurring revenue is primarily comprised of compensation costs for
customer support and production IT personnel, hosting and data center costs,
third-party contractor expenses, third-party royalty and data expenses,
allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs, amortization of
intangible assets from business combinations, amortization of software
development costs, transaction-based costs related to payments services
including remittances of amounts due to third-parties and other costs incurred
in providing support and recurring services to our customers.

Our customers continue to prefer cloud subscription offerings with integrated
analytics, training and payment services. Recurring subscription contracts are
typically for a term of three years at contract inception with one to three-year
renewals thereafter. We intend to continue focusing on innovation, quality and
integration of our cloud solutions, which we believe will drive future revenue
growth.

                  primarily related to an increase in headcount due to our 

acquisition of EVERFI, and


                  a continued shift in resources historically supporting 

one-time services and other


                  towards recurring revenue

cloud infrastructure to


                  leading public cloud service providers and make

                  we expect our cloud infrastructure migration efforts and 

increased level of


                  security investments to continue through 2024

+ Increases in overhead allocations of $1.2 million and $2.8 million, respectively,


                  related to the increased headcount discussed above

+ Increases in amortization of software development costs of $1.2 million and $2.3

                  respectively, primarily attributable to EVERFI, largely 

offset by less revenue


                  from implementation and customization services, in line 

with our multi-year


                  strategic shift from a license-based and one-time 

services business model to a


                  cloud subscription business model. Our cloud subscription 

offerings generally


                  require less implementation and customization services.

- Decreases in one-time analytics revenue of $0.9 million and $1.7 million,


                  respectively, as analytics are generally integrated in 

our cloud solutions




Cost of one-time services and other decreased by $2.5 million, or 18.4%, and
$5.8 million, or 20.8%, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022,
respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2021, driven primarily by the
following:

- Decreases in compensation costs of $2.6 million and $5.3 million,respectively, largely


                  due to a continued shift in resources historically 

supporting one-time services and


                  other towards recurring revenue as well as a decrease in 

professional services

One-time services and other gross margin increased by 19.9% and 23.4% during the
three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, when compared to the
same periods in 2021, primarily due to the significant reductions in

Sales, marketing and customer success expense includes compensation costs,
variable sales commissions, travel-related expenses, advertising and marketing
materials, public relations costs, variable reseller commissions and allocated
depreciation, facilities and IT support costs.

We see a large market opportunity in the long-term and will continue to make
investments to drive sales effectiveness. We have also implemented software
tools to enhance our digital footprint and drive lead generation. The
enhancements we are making in our go-to-market approach are expected to
significantly reduce our average customer acquisition cost per customer as well
as the related payback period while increasing sales velocity.

Sales, marketing and customer success expense increased by $7.3 million, or 16.0%, and $13.7 million, or 14.5%, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2021, primarily driven by the following:

+ Increases in compensation costs of $4.0 million and $7.7 million, respectively,


                  primarily related to increased employee headcount due to 

our acquisition of EVERFI

+ Increases in advertising costs of $1.8 million and $4.0 million, respectively,


                  primarily due to our acquisition of EVERFI

+ Increases in travel costs of $0.6 million and $1.0 million due to our easing of


                  restrictions on non-essential employee travel, which went 

into effect during March

Research and development

Research and development expense includes compensation costs for engineering and product management personnel, third-party contractor expenses, software development tools and other expenses related to developing new solutions or upgrading and enhancing existing solutions that do not qualify for capitalization, and allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs.



We continue to make investments to delight our customers with innovative and
secure cloud solutions. Research and development expenses increased by $8.1
million, or 26.8%, and $18.9 million or 31.8%, during the three and six months
ended June 30, 2022, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2021,
primarily driven by the following:

+ Increases in compensation costs of $5.8 million and $14.1 million, respectively,


                  primarily related to increased employee headcount due to 

our acquisition of EVERFI,


                  and to a lesser extent, our increased hiring of engineers

+ Increases in third-party contractor costs of $5.4 million and $11.0 million,


                  respectively, primarily due to our acquisition of EVERFI 

and, to a lesser extent, an


                  increase in our use of third-party software developers

+ Increases in overhead allocation costs of $0.8 million and $1.8 million, respectively,


                  primarily related to increased headcount discussed above

- Increases in development costs of $4.3 million and $9.0 million, respectively, that


                  were required to be capitalized under GAAP, of which $3.1

million and $6.6 million was


                  attributable to EVERFI software and content


Not included in research and development expense for the three months ended
June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $14.8 million and $10.4 million, respectively, and
for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $28.5 million and $19.5
million, respectively, of qualifying costs associated with software and content
development activities that are required to be capitalized under GAAP, such as
those for our cloud solutions, as well as development costs associated with
acquired companies. Qualifying capitalized development costs associated with our
cloud solutions are subsequently amortized to cost of subscriptions revenue over
the related assets' estimated useful life, which generally range from three to
seven years.

General and administrative

General and administrative expense consists primarily of compensation costs for
general corporate functions, including senior management, finance, accounting,
legal, human resources and corporate development, third-party professional fees,
insurance, allocated depreciation, facilities and IT support costs,
acquisition-related expenses and other administrative expenses.

General and administrative expense increased by $15.4 million or 48.1%, and
$28.6 million, or 45.6%, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022,
respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2021, primarily driven by the
following:

+ Increases in Security Incident-related expenses, net of insurance, of $7.9 million


                  and $15.1 million, respectively, consisting primarily of 

legal fees, as total costs


                  related to the Security Incident that we expect will be 

recoverable has exceeded the


                  limit of our insurance coverage.

+ A $2.3 million noncash impairment charge during the three and six months ended

June 30, 2022 against previously capitalized software 

development costs that reduced


                  the carrying value of those assets to zero. The 

impairment charge resulted primarily


                  from our decision to end customer support for certain 

solutions

+ Increases in acquisition and disposition-related costs of $2.2 million and $3.2


                  million, respectively, primarily related to a $2.0

million noncash impairment of


                  certain insignificant intangible assets held for sale

+ Increases in compensation costs of $2.0 million and $6.6 million, respectively,


                  primarily related to increased employee headcount due to 

our acquisition of EVERFI

+ Increases in third-party contractor costs of $0.7 million and $1.9 million,


                  respectively

+ Increases in rent expense of $0.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively, primarily


                  related to leases assumed from our acquisition of EVERFI

+ Increases in travel costs of $0.6 million and $0.9 million due to our easing of

The increases in interest expense in dollars and as a percentage of total
revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, when compared to
the same period in 2021, were primarily due to the new borrowings used to
finance our acquisition of EVERFI. We currently expect interest expense for the
full year 2022 to be approximately $34 million million to $37 million although
our interest expense in connection with the variable rate portion of our
outstanding debt could increase in a rising interest rate environment. See Note
9 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in this report for more
information regarding our derivative instruments, which we use to manage our
variable interest rate risk, and Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Market Risk: Interest Rate Risk (below) for more information
about our variable interest rate exposure and related risk.

Deferred Revenue

The table below compares the components of deferred revenue from our consolidated balance sheets:



                            June 30,    December 31,
(dollars in millions)           2022            2021    Change
Deferred revenue(1)       $  416.3   $       378.7      9.9  %
Less: Long-term portion        3.5             4.2    (16.5) %
Current portion(1)        $  412.7   $       374.5     10.2  %

(1)The individual amounts for each year may not sum to deferred revenue or current portion of deferred revenue due to rounding.



To the extent that our customers are billed for our solutions and services in
advance of delivery, we record such amounts in deferred revenue. Our recurring
revenue contracts are generally for a term of three years at contract inception,
billed annually in advance, and non-cancelable. We have been for several years
successfully shifting our legacy customer base away from annual renewals and
moving them onto multi-year renewal contracts. We generally invoice our
customers with recurring revenue contracts in annual cycles 30 days prior to the
end of each one-year period.

The increase in deferred revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was
primarily due to a seasonal increase in customer contract renewals.
Historically, due to the timing of customer budget cycles, we have an increase
in customer contract renewals at or near the beginning of our third quarter.
Generally, our lowest balance of deferred revenue during the year is at the end
of our first quarter.

Income Taxes


          Income tax (benefit) provision ($M)
    Percentages indicate effective income tax rates

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we have utilized the discrete effective
tax rate method, as allowed by ASC 740-270-30-18, Income Taxes-Interim
Reporting, to calculate its interim income tax provision. The discrete method is
applied when the application of the estimated annual effective tax rate is
impractical because it is not possible to reliably estimate the annual effective
tax rate. The discrete method treats the year-to-date period as if it was the
annual period and determines the income tax expense or benefit on that basis. We
believe that, at this time, the use of this discrete method is more appropriate
than the annual effective tax rate method as our as our full-year forecasted
pre-tax income, relative to our forecasted permanent differences, has the
potential to distort our estimated annual effective tax rate.

The increase in our effective income tax rate for the three months ended
June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily due to 2022
tax benefit attributable to foreign-derived intangible income ("FDII") deduction
not generated in the prior year. Furthermore, the 2021 effective tax rate was
positively impacted by benefit attributable to stock-based compensation,
partially offset against expense attributable to an income tax rate increase
enacted during the period.

The decrease in our effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30,
2022 when compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily attributable to 2022
tax benefit attributable to FDII deduction not generated in the prior year.
Furthermore, the 2022 effective tax rate was negatively impacted by tax expense
attributable to stock-based compensation against pre-tax loss for the period.
The 2021 effective tax rate was positively impacted by benefit attributable to
stock-based compensation, partially offset against expense attributable to an
income tax rate increase enacted during the period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures



The operating results analyzed below are presented on a non-GAAP basis. We use
non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our operational performance.
Accordingly, we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors, as a
supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance.
While we believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful supplemental
information, non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation
from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with
GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be completely
comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies due to potential
differences in the exact method of calculation between companies.

The non-GAAP financial measures discussed below exclude the impact of certain
transactions because we believe they are not directly related to our operating
performance in any particular period, but are for our long-term benefit over
multiple periods. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect our
ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful period-to-period
comparisons and analysis of trends in our business.

Non-GAAP organic revenue growth



In addition, we use non-GAAP organic revenue growth, non-GAAP organic revenue
growth on a constant currency basis and non-GAAP organic recurring revenue
growth, in analyzing our operating performance. We believe that these non-GAAP
measures are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, for
evaluating the periodic growth of our business on a consistent basis. Each of
these measures of non-GAAP organic revenue growth excludes incremental
acquisition-related revenue attributable to companies acquired in the current
fiscal year. For companies, if any, acquired in the immediately preceding fiscal
year, each of these non-GAAP organic revenue growth measures reflects
presentation of full year incremental non-GAAP revenue derived from such
companies as if they were combined throughout the prior period. In addition,
each of these non-GAAP organic revenue growth measures excludes prior period
revenue associated with divested businesses. The exclusion of the prior period
revenue is to present the results of the divested businesses within the results
of the combined company for the same period of time in both the prior and
current periods. We believe this presentation provides a more comparable
representation of our current business' organic revenue growth and revenue
run-rate.

(1)Non-GAAP acquisition-related revenue excludes incremental acquisition-related
revenue calculated in accordance with GAAP that is attributable to companies
acquired in the current fiscal year. For companies acquired in the immediately
preceding fiscal year, non-GAAP acquisition-related revenue reflects
presentation of full-year incremental non-GAAP revenue derived from such
companies, as if they were combined throughout the prior period.
(2)Non-GAAP organic revenue for the prior year periods presented herein will not
agree to non-GAAP organic revenue presented in the respective prior period
quarterly financial information solely due to the manner in which non-GAAP
organic revenue growth is calculated.
(3)To determine non-GAAP organic revenue growth on a constant currency basis,
revenues from entities reporting in foreign currencies were translated to U.S.
Dollars using the comparable prior period's quarterly weighted average foreign
currency exchange rates. The primary foreign currencies creating the impact are
the Australian Dollar, British Pound, Canadian Dollar and EURO.

Rule of 40

We previously defined Rule of 40 as non-GAAP organic revenue growth plus
non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA margin. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net
income plus interest, net; income tax provision (benefit); depreciation;
amortization of intangible assets from business combinations; amortization of
software and content development costs; stock-based compensation; employee
severance; acquisition and disposition-related costs; restructuring and other
real estate activities; Security Incident-related costs, net of insurance; and
impairment of capitalized software development costs. Beginning in the fiscal
quarter ended June 30, 2022, we now also include in non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA
impairment of capitalized software development costs because we believe it is
not directly related to our operating performance in any particular period.

Non-GAAP free cash flow and non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow

Non-GAAP free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow less capital expenditures, including costs required to be capitalized for software development, and capital expenditures for property and equipment.

Non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow is defined as operating cash flow less capital expenditures, including costs required to be capitalized for software development and capital expenditures for property and equipment, plus cash outflows, net of insurance, related to the Security Incident.



We believe non-GAAP free cash flow and non-GAAP adjusted free cash flow provides
useful measures of the company's operating performance. Non-GAAP adjusted free
cash flow is not intended to represent and should not be viewed as the amount of
residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures.

Seasonality



Our revenues normally fluctuate as a result of certain seasonal variations in
our business. Our first quarter has historically been the seasonal low for
bookings, with the second and fourth quarters historically being seasonally
higher, and our bookings tend to be back-end loaded within individual quarters
given our quarterly quota plans. Transactional revenue is non-contractual and
less predictable given the susceptibility to certain drivers such as timing and
number of events and marketing campaigns, as well as fluctuations in donation
volumes and tuition payments. Our transactional revenue has historically been at
its lowest in the first quarter due to the timing of customer fundraising
initiatives and events. We have historically experienced seasonal highs during
the fourth quarter due to year-end giving campaigns and during the second
quarter when a large number of events are held. Our revenue from professional
services has historically been lower in the first quarter when many of those
services commence and in the fourth quarter due to the holiday season. As a
result of these and other factors, our total revenue has historically been lower
in the first quarter than in the remainder of our fiscal year, with the fourth
quarter historically achieving the highest total revenue. Our expenses, other
than transaction-based costs related to our payments services, do not vary
significantly as a result of these factors, but do fluctuate on a quarterly
basis due to varying timing of expenditures.

Our cash flow from operations normally fluctuates quarterly due to the
combination of the timing of customer contract renewals including renewals
associated with customers of acquired companies, delivery of professional
services and occurrence of customer events, as well as merit-based salary
increases, among other factors. Historically, due to lower revenues in our first
quarter, combined with the payment of certain annual vendor contracts, our cash
flow from operations has been lowest in our first quarter. Due to the timing of
customer contract renewals and student enrollments, many of which take place at
or near the beginning of our third quarter, our cash flow from operations has
been lower in our second quarter as compared to our third and fourth quarters.
Partially, offsetting these favorable drivers of cash flow from operations in
our third and fourth quarters are base salary merit increases, which occur in
July. In addition, deferred revenues can vary on a seasonal basis due to the
timing of customer contract renewals and student enrollments. Our cash flow from
financing is negatively impacted in our first quarter when most of our equity
awards vest, as we pay taxes on behalf of our employees related to the
settlement or exercise of equity awards. These patterns may change as a result
of the continued shift to online giving, growth in volume of transactions for
which we process payments, or as a result of acquisitions, new market
opportunities, new solution introductions, the COVID-19 pandemic or other
factors.

Our principal sources of liquidity are our operating cash flow, funds available
under the 2020 Credit Facility and cash on hand. Our operating cash flow depends
on continued customer renewal of our subscription and maintenance arrangements,
market acceptance of our solutions and services and our customers' ability to
pay. Based on current estimates of revenue and expenses, we believe that the
currently available sources of funds and anticipated cash flows from operations
will be adequate for at least the next twelve months to finance our operations,
fund anticipated capital expenditures and meet our debt obligations. We also
believe that we will be able to continue to meet our long-term cash requirements
due to our anticipated cash flow from operations, solid financial position and
ability to access capital from financial markets. To the extent we undertake
future material acquisitions or, investments or unanticipated capital or
operating expenditures, including in connection with the Security Incident, we
may require additional capital. In that context, we regularly evaluate
opportunities to enhance our capital structure, including through potential debt
or equity issuances.

As a well-known seasoned issuer, we filed an automatic shelf registration
statement for an undetermined amount of debt and equity securities with the SEC
on January 14, 2022. Under this universal shelf registration statement we may
offer and sell, from time to time, debt securities, common stock, preferred
stock, depositary shares, warrants, stock purchase contracts and stock purchase
units. Subject to certain conditions, this registration statement will be
effective through January 13, 2024.

At June 30, 2022, our total cash and cash equivalents balance included
approximately $17.4 million of cash that was held by operations outside the U.S.
While these funds may not be needed to fund our U.S. operations for at least the
next twelve months, if we need these funds, we may be required to accrue and pay
taxes to repatriate the funds. We currently do not intend nor anticipate a need
to repatriate our cash held outside the U.S.

Operating Cash Flow



Our cash flows from operations are derived principally from: (i) our earnings
from on-going operations prior to non-cash expenses such as depreciation,
amortization, stock-based compensation, deferred taxes, amortization of deferred
financing costs and debt discount and adjustments to our provision for credit
losses and sales returns; and (ii) changes in our working capital.

                                  (Unaudited)

Working capital changes are composed of changes in accounts receivable, prepaid
expenses and other assets, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and other
liabilities, and deferred revenue.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $18.1 million during the
six months ended June 30, 2022, when compared to the same period in 2021,
primarily due to a $27.9 million decrease in net income adjusted for non-cash
expenses and a $9.8 million increase in cash flow from operations associated
with working capital.

The increase in cash flow from operations associated with working capital during
the six months ended June 30, 2022, when compared to the same period in 2021,
was primarily due to:

•fluctuations in the timing of vendor payments; and

•an increase in taxes payable; partially offset by

•timing associated with customer contract renewal billings and the collection of those amounts; and

•payment of assumed EVERFI accrued bonuses and other payroll-related liabilities during the first quarter of 2022.

Security Incident update



As discussed in Note 10 to our unaudited, condensed consolidated financial
statements included in this report, total costs related to the Security Incident
that we expect will be recoverable has exceeded the limit of our insurance
coverage. Accordingly, we expect that the Security Incident will continue to
negatively impact our GAAP profitability and GAAP cash flow for the foreseeable
future (see discussion regarding our non-GAAP financial measures beginning on
page   36  ). For full year 2022, we currently expect net pre-tax expense of
approximately $30 million to $35 million for ongoing legal fees related to the
Security Incident. In line with our policy, legal fees are expensed as incurred.
For full year 2022, we currently expect net cash outlays of approximately $15
million to $25 million for ongoing legal fees related to the Security Incident.
We have not recorded a liability for a loss contingency related to the Security
Incident as of June 30, 2022 because we are unable at this time to reasonably
estimate the possible loss or range of loss.

Investing Cash Flow

Net cash used in investing activities of $53.7 million increased by $27.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022, when compared to the same period in 2021.



During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we used $19.0 million for our
acquisition of EVERFI comprised primarily of (i) $17.4 million that had not been
paid by EVERFI to its former option holders as of December 31, 2021, solely due
to the timing of the acquisition on the last day of 2021; and (ii) $2.6 million
that was paid to a number of EVERFI's selling shareholders after determining
they would be paid in cash, rather than shares of our common stock.

We used $27.2 million for software development costs, which was up $7.3 million
from cash spent during the same period in 2021, primarily due to the inclusion
of EVERFI's software and content development activities. We also spent $7.5
million of cash for purchases of property and equipment during the six months
ended June 30, 2022, which was an increase of $1.4 million when compared to the
same period in 2021.

Financing Cash Flow

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had a net decrease in borrowings of $16.3 million.



We paid $35.6 million to satisfy tax obligations of employees upon settlement of
equity awards during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $38.7
million during the same period in 2021. The amount of taxes paid by us on behalf
of employees related to the settlement of equity awards varies from period to
period based upon the timing of grants and vesting, as well as the market price
for shares of our common stock at the time of settlement. Most of our equity
awards currently vest in our first quarter.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash flow from financing activities
associated with changes in restricted cash due to customers decreased $141.0
million, compared to a decrease of $170.1 million during the same period in
2021. This line in the statement of cash flows represents the change in the
amount of restricted cash held and payable by us to customers from one period to
the next.

Stock repurchase program

In December 2021, our Board of Directors reauthorized and replenished our stock
repurchase program that authorizes us to purchase up to $250.0 million of our
outstanding shares of common stock. The program does not have an expiration
date. Under the stock repurchase program, we are authorized to repurchase shares
from time to time in accordance with applicable laws both on the open market,
including under trading plans established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in privately negotiated
transactions. The timing and amount of repurchases depends on several factors,
including market and business conditions, the trading price of our common stock
and the nature of other investment opportunities. The repurchase program may be
limited, suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. During the
three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we did not purchase any shares. The
remaining amount available to purchase stock under the stock repurchase program
was $250.0 million as of June 30, 2022.

2020 Credit Facility



Historically, we have drawn on our credit facility from time to time to help us
meet financial needs, primarily due to the seasonality of our cash flows from
operations and financing for business acquisitions. At June 30, 2022, our
available borrowing capacity under the 2020 Credit Facility was $245.2 million.
The 2020 Credit Facility matures in October 2025.

At June 30, 2022, the carrying amount of our debt under the 2020 Credit Facility
was $880.9 million. Our average daily borrowings during the three and six months
ended June 30, 2022 were $917.3 million and $913.4 million, respectively.

The following is a summary of the financial covenants under the 2020 Credit
Facility:

Financial covenant          Requirement      Ratio as of June 30, 2022
Net leverage ratio(1)      ? 4.25 to 1.00          3.42 to 1.00
Interest coverage ratio    ? 2.50 to 1.00          11.91 to 1.00

(1)Under the terms of the 2020 Credit Facility, the Net Leverage Ratio requirement may be increased by up to 0.50 provided we satisfy certain requirements, including a permitted business acquisition, and provided that the maximum Net Leverage Ratio shall not exceed 4.25 to 1.00.



Under the 2020 Credit Facility, we also have restrictions on our ability to
declare and pay dividends and our ability to repurchase shares of our common
stock. In order to pay any cash dividends and/or repurchase shares of stock: (i)
no default or event of default shall have occurred and be continuing under the
2020 Credit Facility, and (ii) our pro forma net leverage ratio, as set forth in
the 2020 Credit Facility, must be 0.25 less than the net leverage ratio
requirement at the time of dividend declaration or share repurchase. At June 30,
2022, we were in compliance with our debt covenants under the 2020 Credit
Facility. See Note 8 to our unaudited, condensed consolidated financial
statements included in this report for additional information regarding the 2020
Credit Facility.
