Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Quarterly Report, including, without limitation, statements regarding our future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected costs, savings and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe” or “continue” or the negative thereof or variations thereon or similar terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct.

You should read the “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), on February 28, 2024, for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this report. There may be other factors not presently known to us or which we currently consider to be immaterial that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.

All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf apply only as of the date of this Quarterly Report and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in this Quarterly Report and in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

“DoubleVerify,” “the DV Authentic Ad,” “Authentic Brand Suitability,” “DV Pinnacle” and other trademarks of ours appearing in this report are our property and we deem them particularly important to the marketing activities conducted by each of our businesses. Solely for convenience, the trademarks, service marks and trade names referred to in this report are without the ® and ™ symbols, but such references are not intended to indicate, in any way, that we will not assert, to the fullest extent under applicable law, our rights to these trademarks, service marks and trade names. This report contains additional trade names and trademarks of other companies.

DoubleVerify Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is one of the industry’s leading media effectiveness platforms that leverages artificial intelligence (“AI”) to drive superior outcomes for global brands. By creating more effective, transparent ad transactions, we make the digital advertising ecosystem stronger, safer and more secure, thereby preserving the fair value exchange between buyers and sellers of digital media. The Company’s solutions provide advertisers unbiased data analytics that enable advertisers to increase the effectiveness, quality and return on their digital advertising investments. The DV Authentic Ad is our proprietary metric of digital media quality, which measures whether a digital ad was delivered in a brand suitable environment, fully viewable, by a real person and in the intended geography. The Company’s software interface, DV Pinnacle, delivers these metrics to our customers in real time, allowing them to access critical performance data on their digital transactions. The Company’s software solutions are integrated across the entire digital advertising ecosystem, including programmatic platforms, social media channels and digital publishers. The Company’s solutions are accredited by the Media Rating Council, which allows the Company’s data to be used as a single source standard in the evaluation and measurement of digital ads.

The Company was incorporated on August 16, 2017, is registered in the state of Delaware and is the parent company of DoubleVerify Midco, Inc.

Use of Estimates and Judgments in the Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

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 reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and judgments are inherent in the analysis and measurement of items including, but not limited to: revenue recognition criteria including the determination of principal versus agent revenue considerations, income taxes, the valuation and recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, the assessment of potential loss from contingencies, assumptions in valuing acquired assets and liabilities assumed in business combinations, the allowance for doubtful accounts, and assumptions used in determining the fair value of stock-based compensation. Management bases its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be affected by changes in those estimates. These estimates are based on the information available as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents amounts pledged as collateral for certain agreements with third parties. Upon satisfying the terms of the relevant agreements, the funds are expected to be released and available for use by the Company. Restricted cash is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in Prepaid expenses and other current assets or Other non-current assets, depending on if such funds will be released and available for use by the Company within the next twelve months.

Short-term Investments

Debt Securities

The Company’s accounting for debt securities varies depending on the legal form of the security, our intended holding period for the security, and the nature of the transaction. Investments in marketable debt securities include U.S. treasury bills. The Company considers all of its marketable debt securities as available for use in current operations and, therefore, classifies these securities as Short-term investments on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Marketable debt securities are classified as available-for-sale and are initially recorded at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses related to available-for-sale debt securities are recorded as a separate component of Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income until realized. Interest on marketable debt securities classified as available-for-sale is included as a component of Other income, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Refer to Note 8 for further information.

The Company accounts for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities in accordance with ASC 326, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses” (“ASC 326”). The Company uses ASC 326 to assess the investment portfolio for impairment at the individual security level and evaluates all securities in an unrealized loss position to determine if the impairment is credit related (realized loss recorded in earnings) or non-credit related (unrealized loss).

Debt Issuance Costs

The New Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 9) includes debt issuance costs that meet the definition of an asset and are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balances Sheets in Other non-current assets. Debt issuance costs for the New Revolving Credit Facility are amortized to interest expense over the contractual term of the underlying debt instrument on a straight-line basis through the maturity date of the New Revolving Credit Facility on August 12, 2029.

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 30,				September 30,
(in thousands)	2024		2023		2024		2023
Activation	$	96,791	$	81,700	$	263,584	$	229,534

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $29.7 million of remaining performance obligations which are expected to be recognized over the next one to three years. These non-cancelable arrangements have original expected durations longer than one year and for which the consideration is not variable. These obligations relate primarily to the Company’s Supply-side revenue which represented $40.1 million, or 8.6% of the Company’s total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The vast majority of the Company’s revenue is derived primarily from our advertising customers and partners based on the volume of media transactions, or ads, that our software platform measures, and not from supply-side arrangements. In determining the remaining performance obligations, the Company applied the allowable practical expedient and did not disclose information about (1) contracts remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less and (2) contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed.

4. Business Combinations

Scibids Technology SAS

On August 14, 2023, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Scibids Technology SAS (“Scibids”), a global leader in AI technology for digital campaign optimization. The acquisition combines DoubleVerify’s proprietary data with Scibids’ AI-powered optimization technology to provide advertiser customers with enhanced insights and control over their advertising performance.

The total purchase price of $121.1 million, net of cash acquired, includes measurement period adjustments of $0.3 million recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The effect of these adjustments on the preliminary purchase price allocation was a decrease to the purchase consideration of $0.3 million and a corresponding decrease recorded to Goodwill on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of September 30, 2024, the purchase price allocation for Scibids is final.
