Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements

(In thousands)

1. Organization

DoubleVerify Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is a leading software platform for digital media measurement and analytics. Our mission is to create stronger, safer, more secure digital transactions that drive optimal outcomes for global advertisers. Through our software platform and the metrics it provides, we help preserve 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. (“MidCo”), which is in turn the parent company of DoubleVerify Inc. On August 18, 2017, DoubleVerify Inc. entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Agreement”), whereby the Company and Pixel Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, agreed to provide for the merger of the Merger Sub with DoubleVerify Inc. pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement.

On the effective date, Merger Sub was merged with and into DoubleVerify Inc. whereupon the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased and DoubleVerify Inc. continued as the surviving corporation.

Through the merger, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding equity instruments of DoubleVerify Inc., (the “Acquisition”) resulting in a change of control at the parent level. The merger resulted in the application of acquisition accounting under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Topic Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, “Business Combinations.”

The Company is a holding company that does not conduct any business operations of its own and therefore its assets consist primarily of investments in subsidiaries and cash proceeds from stock option exercises, in accordance with the Company’s stock plan discussed further in Footnote 2, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. The amounts available to the Company to fulfill cash commitments or to pay cash dividends are also subject to the covenants and distribution restrictions in its subsidiaries’ loan agreements.

2. Basis of Preparation

The accompanying condensed parent company-only financial statements are required in accordance with Rule 5-04 of Regulation S-X. These condensed financial statements have been presented on a standalone basis for the Company and have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company’s financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

On March 29, 2021, the Company effected a 1 for 3 reverse stock split (“reverse stock split”) of its outstanding common stock and a proportional adjustment to the existing conversion ratio for the preferred stock described in Footnote 14, Stockholders’ Equity to the Company’s annual Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts for all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, have been adjusted retrospectively, where applicable, to reflect this reverse stock split.

3. Income Taxes

The income tax provision of $16.1 million, tax benefit of $3.5 million, and tax benefit of $3.1 million for years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, represent the Company’s consolidated income tax expense (benefit) as it relates to the Company’s subsidiaries, which have not been consolidated for this presentation.

4. Distributions

There were no distributions made to DoubleVerify Holdings, Inc. by its subsidiaries, for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.

5. Long-term debt and credit facilities

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, DoubleVerify Holdings, Inc. held no debt. Certain subsidiaries of the Company are subject to debt agreements.

For further discussion on the nature and terms of these agreements, refer to Footnote 9, Long-term Debt, to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
