CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) not based on historical facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, 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. These statements include statements about Sprout Social, Inc.’s (“Sprout Social”) plans, objectives, strategies, financial performance and outlook, trends, prospects or future events and involve known and unknown risks that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual financial results, performance, achievements or prospects may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “explore,” “intend,” “long-term model,” “may,” “might,” “outlook,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “strategy,” “target,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements, as they relate to Sprout Social, our business and our management. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Sprout Social and our management based on their knowledge and understanding of the business and industry, are inherently uncertain. These forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results, and stockholders should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report. Such risks, uncertainties and other important factors include, among others, the risks, uncertainties and factors set forth under “Part I—Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K under Part I—Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and the risks and uncertainties related to the following:

•our ability to attract, retain, and grow customers;

•our future financial performance, including our revenue, cost of revenue, gross profit, operating expenses, ability to generate positive cash flow, and ability to achieve and maintain profitability;

•our ability to access third-party APIs and data on favorable terms;

•our ability to increase spending of existing customers;

•the evolution of the social media industry, including technological advances and adapting to new regulations and use cases;

•the introduction of artificial intelligence technologies into our products, which may lead to increased governmental or regulatory scrutiny;

•our ability to innovate and provide a superior customer experience;

•our ability to successfully enter new markets, manage our international expansion and comply with any applicable laws and regulations;

•our ability to successfully adapt our sales, success, and compliance efforts to the demands of sophisticated enterprise customers;

•our ability to maintain and enhance our brand;

•our estimates of the size of our market opportunities;

•the effects of increased competition from our market competitors or new entrants to the market;

•our ability to securely maintain customer and other third-party data;

•our ability to comply with existing, modified or new laws and regulations applying to our business, including data privacy and security regulations;

•our ability to maintain, protect and enhance our intellectual property;

•worldwide economic conditions, including the macroeconomic impacts of high levels of inflation, high interest rates and ongoing overseas conflict, and their impact on demand for our platform and products;

•our ability to acquire, invest in, and integrate other businesses or technologies into our business or achieve the expected benefits of such acquisitions and technologies;

•our ability to attract and retain qualified employees and key personnel;

•our ability to manage our substantial debt in a way that does not adversely affect our business; and

•the other factors set forth in our Annual Report filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Form 10-K under Part I—Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”

These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause our actual financial results, performance, achievements or prospects to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by any of our forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could harm our results. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we do not undertake or assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions, laws or other factors affecting forward-looking information, except to the extent required by applicable laws. If we update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.

In addition, statements such as "we believe" and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this report. While we believe such information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, that information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

Sprout Social, Inc. (“Sprout Social” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, began operating on April 21, 2010 to design, develop and operate a web-based comprehensive social media management tool enabling companies to manage and measure their online presence. Customers access their accounts online via a web-based interface or a mobile application. Some customers also purchase the Company’s professional services, which primarily consist of consulting and training services. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. The Company’s customers are primarily located throughout the United States, and a portion of customers are located in foreign countries. The Company is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the applicable regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The Company has prepared the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on a basis substantially consistent with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year or any future period. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures including certain disclosures required by GAAP on an annual basis. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2024.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that its management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s estimates and judgments include, but are not limited to, the estimated period of benefit for incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer, the incremental borrowing rate for operating leases, calculation of allowance for credit losses, valuation of assets and liabilities acquired as part of business combinations, useful lives of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, income taxes, commitments and contingencies and litigation, among others. The Company is not aware of any events or circumstances that would require an update to its estimates and judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of August 2, 2024, the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Sales commissions earned by our sales force are considered incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Sales commissions are paid on initial contracts with new customers and for expansion of contracts with existing customers. Commissions are not paid on customer renewals. Sales commissions are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of benefit. The Company has historically estimated such period of benefit to be three years.

On an annual basis, the Company assesses the expected period of benefit by taking into consideration the products sold, mix of customers, expected customer life, expected contract renewals, technology life cycle and other factors. Based on the assessment performed during the first quarter of 2024, the Company updated the period of benefit from three years to five years. This change in accounting estimate was effective January 1, 2024 and is being accounted for prospectively in the condensed consolidated financial statements. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the change in amortization period resulted in a $3.9 million and $8.1 million reduction to sales and marketing expense, respectively, or an increase of $0.07 and $0.14 per share basic and diluted, respectively. The effects of this change in estimate were calculated based on the carrying value of deferred commissions as of December 31, 2023.

2.Revenue Recognition

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company provides disaggregation of revenue based on geographic region in Note 8 - “Segment and Geographic Data” of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report) and based on the subscription versus professional services and other classification on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, as it believes these best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue is recorded upon establishment of unconditional right to payment under non-cancellable contracts and is recognized as the revenue recognition criteria are met. The Company generally invoices customers in advance in monthly, quarterly, semi-annual and annual installments. The deferred revenue balance is influenced by several factors, including the compounding effects of renewals, invoice duration, timing and size. The amount of revenue recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 that was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of each period was $67.4 million and $50.2 million, respectively. The amount of revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 that was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of each period was $101.9 million and $71.1 million, respectively.

As of June 30, 2024, including amounts already invoiced and amounts contracted but not yet invoiced, $295.1 million of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations, of which 72% is expected to be recognized in the next 12 months, with the remainder thereafter.

3.Operating Leases

The Company has operating lease agreements for offices in Chicago, Illinois; Seattle, Washington; Santa Monica, California; and Dublin, Ireland. The Chicago lease expires in January 2028, the Seattle lease expires in January 2031, the Santa Monica lease expires in January 2025, and the Dublin lease expires in June 2025. These operating leases require escalating monthly rental payments ranging from approximately $14,000 to $280,000. Under the terms of the lease agreements, the Company is also responsible for its proportionate share of taxes and operating costs, which are treated as variable lease costs. The Company’s operating leases typically contain options to extend or terminate the term of the lease. The Company currently does not include any options to extend leases in its lease terms as it is not reasonably certain to exercise them. As such, it has recorded lease obligations only through the initial optional termination dates above.

The following table provides a summary of operating lease assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2024 (in thousands):


Assets
Operating lease right-of-use assets	$	7,844
Liabilities
Operating lease liabilities	4,003
Operating lease liabilities, non-current	13,071
Total operating lease liabilities	$	17,074

The following table provides information about leases on the condensed consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

Operating lease expense	$	686	$	649	$	1,374	$	1,297
Variable lease expense	856		893		1,712		1,786

Within the condensed consolidated statements of operations, operating and variable lease expense are recorded in General and administrative expenses. Cash payments related to operating leases for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $4.1 million and $4.1 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, the weighted-average remaining lease term is 4.5 years and the weighted-average discount rate is 5.5%.

Thereafter	2,326
Total future minimum lease payments	$	19,223
Less: imputed interest	(2,149)

Total operating lease liabilities	$	17,074

4.Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for interim periods is generally determined using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate, excluding jurisdictions for which no tax benefit can be recognized due to valuation allowances. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to a valuation allowance related to the Company’s federal and state deferred tax assets.

There is no provision for domestic income taxes because the Company has historically incurred operating losses and maintains a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized an immaterial provision related to foreign income taxes.

The Company assesses all available positive and negative evidence to evaluate the realizability of its deferred tax assets and whether or not a valuation allowance is necessary. The Company’s three-year cumulative loss position was significant negative evidence in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. The weight given to positive and negative evidence is commensurate with the extent such evidence may be objectively verified. Given the weight of objectively verifiable historical losses from operations, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. The Company may be able to reverse the valuation allowance when sufficient positive evidence exists to support the reversal of the valuation allowance.

5.Revolving Line of Credit

On August 1, 2023, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, the banks and other financial institutions or entities party thereto as lenders and MUFG Bank, LTD. as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $100 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”), maturing on August 1, 2028. Borrowings under the Facility may be used to finance acquisitions and other investments permitted under the terms of the Credit Agreement, to pay related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes. At June 30, 2024, the Company had an outstanding balance of $40.0 million under the Facility.


Sprout Social, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

ranging from 1.75% to 2.25% based on the Company’s liquidity. The Facility also includes a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the Facility of 0.30% or 0.35% based on the Company’s liquidity. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the borrowings under the Facility were designated as SOFR Loans and the weighted average interest rate in effect for the outstanding balance was approximately 8.18%.

Debt issuance costs associated with the Facility were recorded to Other assets, net within the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized as interest expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the Facility.

The Credit Agreement includes customary conditions to credit extensions, affirmative and negative covenants, and customary events of default. The customary conditions also include restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur liens, incur indebtedness, make or hold investments, execute certain change of control transactions, business combinations or other fundamental changes to its business, dispose of assets, make certain types of restricted payments or enter into certain related party transactions, subject to customary exceptions. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants as to (i) minimum liquidity, requiring the maintenance, at all times and measured at the end of each fiscal quarter, of cash and cash equivalents of not less than the greater of (x) $30 million and (y) 30% of the total revolving commitments, and (ii) minimum recurring revenue growth, requiring recurring revenue growth for the trailing four fiscal quarter period, measured at the end of each fiscal quarter, of not less than 115% of the actual recurring revenue for the same period in the prior fiscal year. As of June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement.

6.Incentive Stock Plan

Stock-based compensation expense is included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations as follows:

Legal Matters

From time to time in the normal course of business, the Company may be subject to various legal matters such as threatened or pending claims or proceedings.

Beginning on May 13, 2024, the Company and certain of its executives were named in two putative securities fraud class action cases filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois asserting claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and SEC Rule 10b-5. The first action, captioned Richard Munch v. Sprout Social, Inc., et al. (the “Munch Action”), was filed on May 13, 2024 and alleges that the defendants made false or misleading statements and omissions of fact relating to the Company’s business, operations and prospects, including (i) purported integration challenges arising from the Company’s August 2023 acquisition of Tagger Media, Inc., (ii) the Company’s ability to service (and the viability of its strategic plan to focus on) the enterprise market, and (iii) as a result, the Company’s financial guidance. The plaintiff in the Munch Action seeks damages and costs on behalf of a putative class of Company stockholders and alleges a class period beginning on November 3, 2023 and ending on May 2, 2024. The second case, captioned City of Hollywood Police Officers’ Retirement System v. Sprout Social, Inc., et al. (the “City of Hollywood Action” and, together with the Munch Action, the “Securities Actions”) was filed on July 2, 2024. It asserts claims under the same statutory provisions based on substantially similar allegations of misconduct as the Munch Action, but alleges a class period beginning on November 3, 2021 and ending on May 2, 2024.

On July 12, 2024, three purported Company stockholders, including the named plaintiffs in the Securities Actions, filed motions to consolidate the Securities Actions and for appointment as lead plaintiff under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Those motions remain pending. Based on a scheduling order entered by the Court in the first-filed Munch Action, the appointed lead plaintiff will have sixty days following a ruling on these motions to file a consolidated amended and/or consolidated complaint, after which Defendants will have sixty days to respond.

The Company intends to vigorously defend against the claims asserted in the Securities Actions. The outcomes of these actions are subject to inherent uncertainties, and the actual defense and disposition costs will depend upon many unknown factors. The Company could be forced to expend significant resources in the defense of these actions and may not prevail. The Company currently is not


Sprout Social, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

able to estimate the possible cost from these matters, as these actions are currently at an early stage, and the Company cannot be certain how long it may take to resolve these actions or the possible amount of any damages that the Company may be required to pay. Such amounts could be material to the Company’s financial statements. The Company has not established any reserve for any potential liability relating to these actions. It is possible that the Company could, in the future, incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims for monetary damages.

Indemnification

In the ordinary course of business, the Company often includes standard indemnification provisions in its arrangements with third parties, including vendors, customers, investors, and the Company’s directors and officers. Pursuant to these provisions, the Company may be obligated to indemnify such parties for losses or claims suffered or incurred. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential loss under these indemnification provisions due to the Company’s limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular provision. There were no material obligations under such indemnification agreements as of and for the period ended June 30, 2024.

8.Segment and Geographic Data

The Company operates as one operating segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its chief executive officer, who reviews financial information for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance and allocating resources. The Company’s CODM evaluates financial information on a consolidated basis. As the Company operates as one operating segment, all required segment financial information is found in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Long-lived assets by geographical region are based on the location of the legal entity that owns the assets. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no significant long-lived assets held by entities outside of the United States.

Revenue by geographical region is determined by location of the Company’s customers. Revenue from customers outside of the United States was approximately 27% and 28% for each of the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Revenue by geographical region is as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Americas	$	78,830	$	62,312	$	155,500	$	121,423
EMEA	15,646		13,054		31,017		25,554
Asia Pacific	4,920		3,949		9,663		7,550
Total	$	99,396	$	79,315	$	196,180	$	154,527

9.Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of outstanding shares of common stock for each period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by giving effect to all potential dilutive common stock equivalents, which includes stock options and restricted stock units. Because the Company incurred net losses each period, the basic and diluted calculations are the


Sprout Social, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

same. Basic and diluted net loss per share are the same for each class of common stock, as both Class A and Class B stockholders are entitled to the same liquidation and dividend rights.

The following table presents the calculation for basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except share and per share data):


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Net loss attributable to common shareholders	$	(16,892)	$	(13,085)	$	(30,467)	$	(23,337)
Weighted average common shares outstanding	56,699,148		55,499,399		56,521,490		55,331,151
Net loss per share, basic and diluted	$	(0.30)	$	(0.24)	$	(0.54)	$	(0.42)

The following outstanding shares of common stock equivalents were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share for each period, as the impact of including them would have been anti-dilutive.


	June 30,
	2024	2023
Stock options outstanding	2,010	27,010
RSUs outstanding	4,763,867	3,651,744
Total potentially dilutive shares	4,765,877	3,678,754

10. Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain financial assets at fair value. Fair value is determined based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, as determined by either the principal market or the most advantageous market. Inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values are classified based on a three-level hierarchy, as follows:

•Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2: Observable inputs, other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

•Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity.

The following tables present information about the Company’s financial assets that are measured at fair value and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs used (in thousands):

Asset-backed securities	—		367		—		367
Total assets	$	—	$	48,344	$	—	$	48,344

Marketable securities are classified within Level 2 because they are valued using inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable in the market.

The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash held in banks, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities and are excluded from the fair value tables above.

For the periods presented, the Company held investment-grade marketable securities which were accounted for as available-for-sale securities. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was not a significant difference between the amortized cost and fair value of these securities. The gross unrealized gains and losses associated with these securities were immaterial in the periods presented.

The following table classifies our marketable securities by contractual maturity (in thousands):

11. Business Combinations

Tagger Media, Inc.

On August 2, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of all the outstanding equity of Tagger, an influencer marketing and social intelligence platform. The Company acquired Tagger in order to expand into the influencer marketing category. Tagger’s platform enables marketers to discover influencers, plan and manage campaigns, analyze competitor strategies, report on trends and measure return on investment.

The Company acquired Tagger for a total final purchase consideration of $144 million in cash, which incorporates the impact of various customary adjustments such as working capital, cash and indebtedness. The Company funded the purchase consideration with a combination of cash on hand and $75 million borrowed under the Facility further described in Note 5 - “Revolving Line of Credit” of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report).

The excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill, and is primarily attributable to expanded market opportunities from integrating the acquired developed technologies with the Company’s offerings. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The fair values of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management’s estimates and assumptions. The allocation of fair value of purchase consideration was finalized in the second quarter of 2024.

The following table summarizes the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition (in thousands):


	August 2, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents	$	4,648
Accounts receivable	2,979
Other current and noncurrent assets	932
Intangible assets	27,800
Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities	(1,758)
Deferred revenue	(3,243)
Net assets acquired, excluding Goodwill	31,358
Goodwill	112,405
Total consideration	$	143,763
Cash and cash equivalents acquired	(4,648)
Cash paid for acquisition of business, net of cash acquired	$	139,115

The Company engaged a third-party valuation expert to aid its analysis of the acquired identifiable intangible assets. All estimates, key assumptions and forecasts were either provided by or reviewed by the Company. While the Company chose to utilize a third-party valuation expert for assistance, the fair value analysis and related valuations reflect the conclusions of management and not those of any third party.


Sprout Social, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The fair values of the acquired technology and the trademark identified intangible assets were determined utilizing the relief from royalty method under the income approach. The fair values of the customer relationships were valued using the multi-period excess-earnings method. The Company applied judgment which involved the use of assumptions with respect to revenue growth rates, customer attrition rate, discount rate, royalty rate, obsolescence rate and total operating expenses.

Acquired intangible assets are being amortized over the estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis. The following table summarizes the estimated fair values (in thousands) and estimated useful lives for the identifiable intangible assets acquired as of the acquisition date:


	Fair Value		Expected Useful Life
Customer Relationships	$	12,400	7 years
Acquired Technology	14,100		5 years
Trademark	1,300		5 years
	$	27,800

The Company has included the financial results of Tagger in its condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Separate financial results and pro forma financial information for Tagger have not been presented as the effect of this acquisition was not material to the Company’s financial results.

Repustate, Inc.

On January 19, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of all the outstanding equity of Repustate, Inc. The acquisition has increased the Company’s power, breadth and automation of social listening, messaging, and customer care capabilities with added sentiment analysis, natural language processing (NLP) and artificial-intelligence (AI).

The total final purchase consideration for the acquisition was $8.3 million, consisting of approximately $6.8 million in cash paid at the closing of the acquisition and a holdback of $1.5 million in cash to be paid as purchase consideration after the one-year anniversary of the closing of the acquisition, assuming no claims by the Company against the holdback amount for post-closing purchase price adjustments or indemnification matters. The purchase price holdback was paid in full in January 2024.

The excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill, and is primarily attributable to expected post-acquisition synergies from integrating the technology into Sprout’s platform. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current plans, expectations and beliefs involving risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under Part I—Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and in other parts of this Quarterly Report. See "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

Overview

Sprout Social is a powerful, centralized platform that provides the critical business layer to unlock the massive commercial value of social media. We have made it increasingly easy to standardize on Sprout Social as the centralized system of record for social and to help customers maximize the value of this mission critical channel. Currently, more than 30,000 customers across more than 100 countries rely on our platform.

Introduced in 2011, our cloud software brings together social messaging, data and workflows in a unified system of record, intelligence and action. Operating across major networks, including X (formerly known as Twitter), Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Google, Reddit, Glassdoor and YouTube, and commerce platforms Facebook Shops, Shopify and WooCommerce, we provide organizations with a centralized platform to manage their social media efforts across stakeholders and business functions. Virtually every aspect of business has been impacted by social media, from marketing, sales, commerce and public relations to customer service, product and strategy, creating a need for an entirely new category of software. We offer our customers a centralized, secure and powerful platform to manage this broad, complex channel effectively across their organization.

We generate revenue primarily from subscriptions to our social media management platform under a software-as-a-service model. Our subscriptions can range from monthly to one-year or multi-year arrangements and are generally non-cancellable during the contractual subscription term. Subscription revenue is recognized ratably over the contract terms beginning on the date the product is made available to customers, which typically begins on the commencement date of each contract. We also generate revenue from professional services related to our platform provided to certain customers, which is recognized at the time these services are provided to the customer. This revenue has historically represented less than 1% of our revenue and is expected to be immaterial for the foreseeable future.

Our tiered subscription-based model allows our customers to choose among three core plans to meet their needs. Each plan is licensed on a per user per month basis at prices dependent on the level of features offered. Additional product modules, which offer increased functionality depending on a customer’s needs, can be purchased by the customer on a per user per month basis.

We generated revenue of $99.4 million and $79.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, representing growth of 25%. We generated revenue of $196.2 million and $154.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, representing growth of 27%. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, software subscriptions contributed 99% of our revenue.

We generated net losses of $16.9 million and $13.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which included stock-based compensation expense of $20.6 million and $16.4 million, respectively. We generated net losses of $30.5 million and $23.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which included stock-based compensation expense of $38.7 million and $30.0 million, respectively. We expect to continue investing in the growth of our business and, as a result, generate net losses for the foreseeable future.

Impact of Macroeconomic Conditions

As a company with a global footprint, we are subject to risks and exposures caused by significant events and their macroeconomic impacts, including, but not limited to, high levels of inflation, high interest rates, ongoing overseas conflict, volatility in the capital markets and related market uncertainty. We continuously monitor the direct and indirect impacts, and the potential for future impacts, of these circumstances on our business and financial results, as well as the overall global economy and geopolitical landscape.

Our current and prospective customers are impacted by these worsening macroeconomic conditions to varying degrees. Potentially as a result of these various macroeconomic impacts on our current and prospective customers, we periodically have experienced more measured buying behavior by current and prospective customers and lengthening of the average sales cycle for certain types of customers and sales (including sales to prospective customers and expansion sales to current customers), which have contributed to a slowdown in our revenue growth as compared to historical levels. We believe macroeconomic uncertainty could persist, and as a result, we expect that some or all of these negative trends may emerge or recur during future quarters.

Acquisition of Tagger Media, Inc.

On August 2, 2023, we completed our acquisition of all the outstanding equity of Tagger Media, Inc. (“Tagger”), for a total purchase consideration of $144 million. We acquired Tagger in order to expand into the influencer marketing category. Tagger’s platform enables marketers to discover influencers, plan and manage campaigns, analyze competitor strategies, report on trends and measure return on investment. We funded the purchase consideration with a combination of cash on hand and $75 million borrowed under the Facility further described in Note 5 - “Revolving Line of Credit” of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report).

We have included the financial results of Tagger in our condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Refer to Note 11 - “Business Combinations” of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report) for further discussion regarding the acquisition.

Acquisition of Repustate, Inc.

On January 19, 2023, we completed the acquisition of Repustate, Inc. for a total purchase consideration of $8.3 million, consisting of approximately $6.8 million in cash paid at the closing time of the acquisition and a holdback of $1.5 million in cash to be paid as purchase consideration after the one-year anniversary of the closing of the acquisition, assuming no claims by the Company against the holdback amount for post-closing purchase price adjustments or indemnification matters. The purchase price holdback was paid in full in January 2024.

The Repustate acquisition has increased our power, breadth and automation of social listening, messaging, and customer care capabilities with added sentiment analysis, natural language processing (NLP) and artificial intelligence (AI). We have included the financial results of Repustate in our condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The impact of Repustate’s financial results following the date of acquisition were not significant to Sprout’s condensed consolidated financial

statements. Refer to Note 11 - “Business Combinations” of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report) for further discussion.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

Acquiring new customers

We are focused on continuing to organically grow our customer base by increasing demand for our platform and penetrating our addressable market. We have invested, and expect to continue to invest, heavily in expanding our sales force and marketing efforts to acquire new customers. Currently, we have more than 30,000 customers. In November 2022, we announced a price increase. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, this price increase contributed to an increase in our average revenue per customer. While our total number of customers decreased over this same period, our number of customers contributing over $10,000 in ARR and $50,000 in ARR increased. In addition, as we continue to focus on expanding our enterprise customer base, we have experienced and expect to continue to experience longer and more expansive average sale cycles and increased pricing pressure, which may be exacerbated by the macroeconomic factors described above. We expect these trends to continue as we remain focused on our most sophisticated customers.

Expanding within our current customer base

We believe that there is a substantial and largely untapped opportunity for organic growth within our existing customer base. Customers often begin by purchasing a small number of user subscriptions and then expand over time, increasing the number of users or social profiles, as well as purchasing additional product modules. Customers may then expand use-cases between various departments to drive collaboration across their organizations. Our sales and customer success efforts include encouraging organizations to expand use-cases to more fully realize the value from the broader adoption of our platform throughout an organization. We will continue to invest in enhancing awareness of our brand, creating additional uses for our products and developing more products, features and functionality of existing products, which we believe are vital to achieving increased adoption of our platform. We have a history of attracting new customers and we have increased our focus on expanding their use of our platform over time.

Sustaining product and technology innovation

Our success is dependent on our ability to sustain product and technology innovation and maintain the competitive advantage of our proprietary technology. We continue to invest resources to enhance the capabilities of our platform by introducing new products, features and functionality of existing products.

International expansion

We see international expansion as a meaningful opportunity to grow our platform. Revenue generated from non-U.S. customers during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately 27% of our total revenue. We have teams in Ireland, Canada, the United Kingdom, Singapore, India, Australia, the Philippines and Poland to support our growth internationally. We believe global demand for our platform and offerings will continue to increase as awareness of our platform in international markets grows. We plan to continue adding to our local sales, customer support and customer success teams in select international markets over time.

Key Business Metrics

We review the following key business metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions. Consistent with our communications in previous quarters, we no longer believe that ARR and total number of customers

are key performance indicators of Sprout Social’s business due to our evolving customer mix and we will no longer publicly disclose these metrics.

Number of customers contributing more than $10,000 in ARR

We define customers contributing more than $10,000 in ARR as those on a paid subscription plan that had more than $10,000 in ARR as of a period end.

We view the number of customers that contribute more than $10,000 in ARR as a measure of our ability to scale with our customers and attract larger organizations. We believe this represents potential for future growth, including expanding within our current customer base. Over time, larger customers have constituted a greater share of our revenue.


	As of June 30,
	2024	2023
Number of customers contributing more than $10,000 in ARR	8,966	7,391

Number of customers contributing more than $50,000 in ARR

We define customers contributing more than $50,000 in ARR as those on a paid subscription plan that had more than $50,000 in ARR as of a period end.

We view the number of customers that contribute more than $50,000 in ARR as a measure of our ability to scale with our largest customers and attract more sophisticated organizations. We believe this represents potential for future growth, including expanding within our current customer base. Over time, our largest customers have constituted a greater share of our revenue.


	As of June 30,
	2024	2023
Number of customers contributing more than $50,000 in ARR	1,545	1,119

While we no longer believe that ARR and total number of customers are key performance indicators of Sprout Social’s business, these metrics are necessary for an understanding of how we define number of customers contributing over $10,000 in ARR and number of customers contributing over $50,000 in ARR. For this purpose, we define ARR as the annualized revenue run-rate of subscription agreements from all customers as of the last date of the specified period and we define a customer as a unique account, multiple accounts containing a common non-personal email domain, or multiple accounts governed by a single agreement or entity.

Components of our Results of Operations

Revenue

Subscription

We generate revenue primarily from subscriptions to our social media management platform under a software-as-a-service model. Our subscriptions can range from monthly to one-year or multi-year arrangements and are generally non-cancellable during the contractual subscription term. Subscription revenue is recognized ratably over the contract terms beginning on the date our product is made available to customers, which typically begins on the commencement date of each contract. Our customers do not have the right to take possession of the online software solution. We also generate a small portion of our subscription revenue from third-party resellers.

Professional Services

We sell professional services consisting of, but not limited to, implementation fees, specialized training, one-time reporting services and recurring periodic reporting services. Professional services revenue is recognized at the time these services are provided to the customer. This revenue has historically represented less than 1% of our revenue and is expected to be immaterial for the foreseeable future.

Cost of Revenue

Subscription

Cost of revenue primarily consists of expenses related to hosting our platform and providing support to our customers. These expenses are comprised of fees paid to data providers, hosted data center costs and personnel costs directly associated with cloud infrastructure, customer success and customer support, including salaries, benefits, bonuses and allocated overhead. These costs also include depreciation expense and amortization expense related to acquired developed technologies that directly benefit sales. Overhead associated with facilities and information technology is allocated to cost of revenue and operating expenses based on headcount. Although we expect our cost of revenue to increase in absolute dollars as our business and revenue grows, we expect our cost of revenue to decrease as a percentage of our revenue over time.

Professional Services and Other

Cost of professional services primarily consists of expenses related to our professional services organization and are comprised of personnel costs, including salaries, benefits, bonuses and allocated overhead.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross margin is calculated as gross profit as a percentage of total revenue. Our gross margin may fluctuate from period to period based on revenue earned, the timing and amount of investments made to expand our hosting capacity, our customer support and professional services teams and in hiring additional personnel, and the impact of acquisitions. We expect our gross profit and gross margin to increase as our business grows over time.

Operating Expenses

Research and Development

Research and development expenses primarily consist of personnel costs, including salaries, benefits and allocated overhead. Research and development expenses also include depreciation expense and other expenses associated with product development. We plan to increase the dollar amount of our investment in research and development for the foreseeable future as we focus on developing new features and enhancements to our plan offerings.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of personnel costs directly associated with our sales and marketing department, online advertising expenses, as well as allocated overhead, including depreciation expense. Sales commissions and bonuses are considered incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Sales commissions are earned and recorded at contract commencement for both new customer contracts and expansion of contracts with existing customers. Sales commissions are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit, which we have determined to be five years. We plan to increase the dollar amount of our investment in sales and marketing for the foreseeable future, primarily for increased headcount for our sales department.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel expenses associated with our finance, legal, human resources and other administrative employees. Our general and administrative expenses also include professional fees for external legal, accounting and other consulting services, amortization of intangible assets, depreciation and amortization expense, as well as allocated overhead. We expect to increase the size of our general and administrative functions to support the growth of our business. We expect the dollar amount of our general and administrative expenses to increase for the foreseeable future. However, we expect our general and administrative expenses to decrease as a percentage of revenue over time.

Interest Income (Expense), Net

Interest income (expense), net consists primarily of interest expense related to the Facility and is offset by interest income earned on our cash and investment balances.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net consists of foreign currency transaction gains and losses.

Income Tax Provision

The income tax provision consists of current and deferred taxes for our United States and foreign jurisdictions. We have historically reported a taxable loss in our most significant jurisdiction, the United States, and have a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. We expect this trend to continue for the foreseeable future.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, we believe the following non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use the below non-GAAP financial information, collectively, to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and

comparability with past financial performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, operating results or future outlook.

However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Non-GAAP Gross Profit

We define non-GAAP gross profit as GAAP gross profit, excluding stock-based compensation expense and amortization expense associated with the acquired developed technology from the Tagger acquisition. We believe non-GAAP gross profit provides our management and investors consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of operations, as it eliminates the effect of stock-based compensation and amortization expense, which are often unrelated to overall operating performance. In 2023, we revised our definition of non-GAAP gross profit to exclude amortization expense associated with the acquired developed technology from the Tagger acquisition.

Non-GAAP Operating Income

We define non-GAAP operating income as GAAP loss from operations, excluding stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses and amortization expense associated with the acquired intangible assets from the Tagger acquisition. We believe non-GAAP operating income provides our management and investors consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of operations, as it eliminates the effect of stock-based compensation, acquisition-related expenses and amortization expense, which are often unrelated to overall operating performance. In 2023, we revised our definition of non-GAAP operating income to

exclude acquisition-related expenses in connection with the Tagger acquisition and amortization expense associated with the acquired intangible assets from the Tagger acquisition.

Non-GAAP Net Income

We define non-GAAP net income as GAAP net loss, excluding stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses and amortization expense associated with the acquired intangible assets from the Tagger acquisition. We believe non-GAAP net income provides our management and investors consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of operations, as this non-GAAP financial measure eliminates the effect of stock-based compensation, acquisition-related expenses and amortization expense, which are often unrelated to overall operating performance. In 2023, we revised our definition of non-GAAP net income to exclude acquisition-related expenses in connection with the Tagger acquisition and amortization expense associated with the acquired intangible assets from the Tagger acquisition.

Non-GAAP Net Income per Share

We define non-GAAP net income per share as GAAP net loss per share attributable to common shareholders, basic and diluted, excluding stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses and amortization expense associated with the acquired intangible assets from the Tagger acquisition. We believe non-GAAP net income per share provides our management and investors consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitates period-to-period comparisons of operations, as this non-GAAP financial measure eliminates the effect of stock-based compensation, acquisition-related expenses and amortization expense, which are often unrelated to overall operating performance.

Non-GAAP Free Cash Flow

We define non-GAAP free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less expenditures for property and equipment, acquisition-related costs and interest. Non-GAAP free cash flow does not reflect our future contractual obligations or represent the total increase or decrease in our cash balance for a given period. We believe that non-GAAP free cash flow is a useful indicator of liquidity that provides information to management and investors about the amount of cash used in our core operations that, after the expenditures for property and equipment, acquisition-related costs and interest, is available to be used for strategic initiatives. For example, if non-GAAP free cash flow is negative, we may need to access cash reserves or other sources of capital to invest in strategic initiatives. In 2023, we revised our definition of non-GAAP free cash flow to exclude payments related to acquisition-related costs associated with our acquisition of Tagger (which are not applicable for the periods presented) and cash paid for interest on our revolving line of credit.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2024, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents of $80.9 million, marketable securities of $12.3 million and net accounts receivable of $58.6 million. Historically, we have generated losses from operations as evidenced by our accumulated deficit and in previous years, we had negative cash flows from operations. However, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we generated positive cash flows from operations. We expect to continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future as we continue to grow the business. We may experience greater than anticipated operating losses in the short- and long-term due to macroeconomic, financial, and other factors that are beyond our control, such as high inflation rates and a potential recession. The impact of these factors on our customers and our operations going forward remains uncertain, and we continue to proactively monitor our liquidity position.

Prior to our IPO in December 2019, we financed our operations primarily through private issuance of equity securities and line of credit borrowings. In our IPO, we received net proceeds of $134.3 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $10.5 million and offering expenses of $5.2 million. We subsequently received an additional $10.0 million of net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions in January 2020 as a result of the over-allotment option exercise by the

underwriters of our IPO. In August 2020, we received $42.1 million of net proceeds from our equity follow-on offering after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. As described below, in August 2023, we borrowed $75 million under the Facility in connection with the Tagger acquisition. Our principal uses of cash in recent periods have been to fund operations, pay for acquisitions, invest in marketable securities, pay down our Facility, and invest in capital expenditures.

We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our operating and capital needs for at least the next 12 months. We believe we will meet longer-term expected future cash requirements and obligations through a combination of cash flows from operating activities, available cash and investment balances and potential future equity or debt transactions. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our subscription growth rate, subscription renewal activity, billing frequency, the impact of macroeconomic conditions on our customers and our operations, the timing and extent of spending to support our research and development efforts, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the introduction of new and enhanced product offerings, and the continuing market acceptance of our product. We have in the past, and may in the future, enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, products and technologies, including intellectual property rights. We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital or generate cash flows necessary to expand our operations, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Credit Agreement

On August 1, 2023, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, the banks and other financial institutions or entities party thereto as lenders and MUFG Bank, LTD. as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $100 million senior secured revolving credit facility, maturing on August 1, 2028. Borrowings under the Facility may be used to finance acquisitions and other investments permitted under the terms of the Credit Agreement, to pay related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes.

Borrowings under the Facility may be designated as SOFR Loans or ABR Loans (each as defined in the Credit Agreement), subject to certain terms and conditions under the Credit Agreement, and bear interest at a rate of either (i) SOFR (subject to a 1.0% floor), plus 0.10%, plus a margin ranging from 2.75% to 3.25% based on the Company’s liquidity or (ii) ABR (subject to a 2.0% floor) plus a margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.25% based on the Company’s liquidity. The Facility also includes a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the Facility of 0.30% or 0.35% based on the Company’s liquidity.

The Credit Agreement includes customary conditions to credit extensions, affirmative and negative covenants, and customary events of default. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants as to (i) minimum liquidity, requiring the maintenance, at all times and measured at the end of each fiscal quarter, of cash and cash equivalents of not less than the greater of (x) $30 million and (y) 30% of the total revolving commitments, and (ii) minimum recurring revenue growth, requiring recurring revenue growth for the trailing four fiscal quarter period, measured at the end of each fiscal quarter, of not less than 115% of the actual recurring revenue for the same period in the prior fiscal year.

On August 1, 2023, we borrowed $75 million under the Credit Agreement in connection with the Tagger acquisition. As of June 30, 2024, $40 million remains outstanding under the Credit Agreement. Refer to Note 11 - “Business Combinations” of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report) for further discussion.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023
	(in thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	13,227	$	14,578
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	33,391		(17,371)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities	(15,483)		87
Net increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	31,135	$	(2,706)

Operating Activities

Our largest source of operating cash is cash collections from our customers for subscription services. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are for personnel costs across the sales and marketing and research and development departments and hosting costs. In previous years, we have generated negative cash flows from operating activities. However, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we generated positive cash flows from operating activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $13.2 million, which resulted from a net loss of $30.5 million adjusted for non-cash charges of $52.5 million and net cash outflow of $8.8 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities. Non-cash charges primarily consisted of $38.7 million of stock-based compensation expense, $7.4 million for amortization of deferred contract acquisition costs, which were primarily commissions, $5.0 million of depreciation and intangible asset amortization expense and $0.9 million of amortization of right-of-use, or ROU, operating lease assets. The net cash outflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities was primarily the result of a $13.8 million increase in deferred commissions due to the addition of new customers and expansion of the business, a $4.7 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, a $2.0 million decrease in operating lease liabilities and a $0.2 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses. These outflows were primarily offset by a $7.8 million increase in deferred revenue and a $4.1 million decrease in accounts receivable.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $14.6 million, which resulted from a net loss of $23.3 million adjusted for non-cash charges of $44.1 million and net cash outflow of $6.2 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities. Non-cash charges primarily consisted of $30.0 million of stock-based compensation expense, $12.2 million for amortization of deferred contract acquisition costs, which were primarily commissions, $0.7 million of amortization of right-of-use, or ROU, operating lease assets, and $2.3 million of depreciation and intangible asset amortization expense. The net cash outflow from changes in operating assets and liabilities was primarily the result of a $16.6 million increase in deferred commissions due to the addition of new customers and expansion of the business, a $4.1 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, a $1.7 million decrease in operating lease liabilities, and a $7.2 million increase in accounts receivable. These outflows were primarily offset by a $3.0 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and a $20.4 million increase in deferred revenue.

Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $33.4 million, which was primarily due to $36.4 million in proceeds from the maturities of marketable securities and $0.1 million consideration received related to a purchase price adjustment from the Tagger acquisition, partially offset by $1.6 million in purchases of computer equipment and hardware and the $1.5 million payout of the Repustate acquisition purchase price holdback.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $17.4 million, which was primarily due to $63.1 million in purchases of marketable securities and $6.4 million for the acquisition of Repustate, partially offset by $52.8 million in proceeds from the maturities and sale of marketable securities.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $15.5 million, primarily driven by $15.0 million in repayments of the Facility and $1.7 million in payments related to employee withholding taxes as a result of the net settlement of stock-based awards, partially offset by $1.2 million in proceeds from purchases under our employee stock purchase plan.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $0.1 million, primarily driven by $1.4 million in payments related to employee withholding taxes as a result of the net settlement of stock-based awards, partially offset by $1.4 million in proceeds from purchases under our employee stock purchase plan.

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2024, we have non-cancellable contractual obligations related primarily to operating leases and minimum guaranteed purchase commitments for data and services. As of June 30, 2024, the total obligation for operating leases was $19.2 million, of which $4.8 million is expected to be paid in the next twelve months. As of June 30, 2024, our purchase commitment for primarily data and services was $13.8 million, of which $8.4 million is expected to be paid in the next twelve months. See Note 3 - “Operating Leases” and Note 7 - “Commitments and Contingencies” of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report) for more information regarding these obligations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to section titled “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in Note 1 of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report) for more information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. Our actual results may differ from these estimates.

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1 - “Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2024. There have been no significant changes to these policies during the six months ended June 30, 2024, except as noted in Note 1 of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report).

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

We had cash and cash equivalents totaling $80.9 million as of June 30, 2024, the majority of which was invested in money market accounts and money market funds. We also had marketable securities of $12.3 million which were invested in investment-grade corporate bonds and U.S. agency securities. Such interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk with respect to the interest income generated. Additionally, certain of these cash investments are maintained at balances beyond Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, coverage limits or are not insured by the FDIC. Accordingly, there may be a risk that we will not recover the full principal of our cash investments. To date, fluctuations in interest income have not been significant. Because these accounts are highly liquid, we do not have material exposure to market risk. Our cash is held for working capital purposes. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes.

As of June 30, 2024, we had $40 million in secured indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The revolving line of credit bears interest at a rate of either (i) SOFR (subject to a 1.0% floor), plus 0.10%, plus a margin ranging from 2.75% to 3.25% based on the Company’s liquidity or (ii) ABR (subject to a 2.0% floor) plus a margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.25% based on the Company’s liquidity. Refer to Note 5 - “Revolving Line of Credit” of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report).

We have not been exposed to, nor do we anticipate being exposed to, material risks due to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates during any of the periods presented would not have had a material impact on our financial statements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We are not currently subject to significant foreign currency exchange risk as our U.S. and international sales are predominantly denominated in U.S. dollars. However, we have some foreign currency risk related to a small amount of sales denominated in Canadian dollars. Sales denominated in Canadian dollars reflect the prevailing U.S. dollar exchange rate on the date of invoice for such sales. Decreases in the relative value of the U.S. dollar to the Canadian dollar may negatively affect revenue and other operating results as expressed in U.S. dollars. We do not believe that an immediate 10% increase or decrease in the relative value of the U.S. dollar to the Canadian dollars would have a material effect on operating results.

We have not engaged in the hedging of foreign currency transactions to date. However, as our international operations expand, our foreign currency exchange risk may increase. If our foreign currency exchange risk increases in the future, we may evaluate the costs and benefits of initiating a foreign currency hedge program in connection with non-U.S. dollar denominated transactions.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2024. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of June 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal controls

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations of Internal Controls

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management does not expect that our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company will have been detected.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

See Note 7 - “Commitments and Contingencies” of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report) for information regarding certain legal proceedings in which we are involved, which is incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

None.

Item 5. Other Information.

Securities Trading Plans of Directors and Executive Officers

During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024, none of our directors and officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) adopted, modified or terminated any “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements” (as defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act), that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions under 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act.

Our officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act), other than Mr. Howard, have entered into sell-to-cover arrangements, which constitute “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements,” authorizing the pre-arranged sale of shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations of the Company arising exclusively from the vesting of restricted stock units and the related issuance of shares. The amount of shares to be sold to satisfy the Company’s tax withholding obligations under these arrangements is dependent on future events which cannot be known at this time, including the future trading price of the Company’s Class A common stock. The expiration date relating to these arrangements is dependent on future events which cannot be known at this time, including the final vest date of the applicable restricted stock units and the officer’s termination of service.

Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	6 Months Ended

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of Operations Sprout Social, Inc. (“Sprout Social” or the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, began operating on April 21, 2010 to design, develop and operate a web-based comprehensive social media management tool enabling companies to manage and measure their online presence. Customers access their accounts online via a web-based interface or a mobile application. Some customers also purchase the Company’s professional services, which primarily consist of consulting and training services. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. The Company’s customers are primarily located throughout the United States, and a portion of customers are located in foreign countries. The Company is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the applicable regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The Company has prepared the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on a basis substantially consistent with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year or any future period. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures including certain disclosures required by GAAP on an annual basis. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2024. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that its management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s estimates and judgments include, but are not limited to, the estimated period of benefit for incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer, the incremental borrowing rate for operating leases, calculation of allowance for credit losses, valuation of assets and liabilities acquired as part of business combinations, useful lives of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, income taxes, commitments and contingencies and litigation, among others. The Company is not aware of any events or circumstances that would require an update to its estimates and judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of August 2, 2024, the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The Company’s significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 1 - “Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 23, 2024. There have been no significant changes to these policies during the six months ended June 30, 2024, except as noted below. Sales Commissions Sales commissions earned by our sales force are considered incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Sales commissions are paid on initial contracts with new customers and for expansion of contracts with existing customers. Commissions are not paid on customer renewals. Sales commissions are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of benefit. The Company has historically estimated such period of benefit to be three years. On an annual basis, the Company assesses the expected period of benefit by taking into consideration the products sold, mix of customers, expected customer life, expected contract renewals, technology life cycle and other factors. Based on the assessment performed during the first quarter of 2024, the Company updated the period of benefit from three years to five years. This change in accounting estimate was effective January 1, 2024 and is being accounted for prospectively in the condensed consolidated financial statements. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the change in amortization period resulted in a $3.9 million and $8.1 million reduction to sales and marketing expense, respectively, or an increase of $0.07 and $0.14 per share basic and diluted, respectively. The effects of this change in estimate were calculated based on the carrying value of deferred commissions as of December 31, 2023.

Revenue Recognition	Jun. 30, 2024
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition Disaggregation of Revenue The Company provides disaggregation of revenue based on geographic region in Note 8 - “Segment and Geographic Data” of the Notes to the Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report) and based on the subscription versus professional services and other classification on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, as it believes these best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue is recorded upon establishment of unconditional right to payment under non-cancellable contracts and is recognized as the revenue recognition criteria are met. The Company generally invoices customers in advance in monthly, quarterly, semi-annual and annual installments. The deferred revenue balance is influenced by several factors, including the compounding effects of renewals, invoice duration, timing and size. The amount of revenue recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 that was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of each period was $67.4 million and $50.2 million, respectively. The amount of revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 that was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of each period was $101.9 million and $71.1 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, including amounts already invoiced and amounts contracted but not yet invoiced, $295.1 million of revenue is expected to be recognized from remaining performance obligations, of which 72% is expected to be recognized in the next 12 months, with the remainder thereafter.

Income Taxes	Jun. 30, 2024
Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The provision for income taxes for interim periods is generally determined using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate, excluding jurisdictions for which no tax benefit can be recognized due to valuation allowances. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to a valuation allowance related to the Company’s federal and state deferred tax assets. There is no provision for domestic income taxes because the Company has historically incurred operating losses and maintains a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized an immaterial provision related to foreign income taxes. The Company assesses all available positive and negative evidence to evaluate the realizability of its deferred tax assets and whether or not a valuation allowance is necessary. The Company’s three-year cumulative loss position was significant negative evidence in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. The weight given to positive and negative evidence is commensurate with the extent such evidence may be objectively verified. Given the weight of objectively verifiable historical losses from operations, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. The Company may be able to reverse the valuation allowance when sufficient positive evidence exists to support the reversal of the valuation allowance.

The Facility also includes a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the Facility of 0.30% or 0.35% based on the Company’s liquidity. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the borrowings under the Facility were designated as SOFR Loans and the weighted average interest rate in effect for the outstanding balance was approximately 8.18%. Debt issuance costs associated with the Facility were recorded to Other assets, net within the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized as interest expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the Facility. The Credit Agreement includes customary conditions to credit extensions, affirmative and negative covenants, and customary events of default. The customary conditions also include restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur liens, incur indebtedness, make or hold investments, execute certain change of control transactions, business combinations or other fundamental changes to its business, dispose of assets, make certain types of restricted payments or enter into certain related party transactions, subject to customary exceptions. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants as to (i) minimum liquidity, requiring the maintenance, at all times and measured at the end of each fiscal quarter, of cash and cash equivalents of not less than the greater of (x) $30 million and (y) 30% of the total revolving commitments, and (ii) minimum recurring revenue growth, requiring recurring revenue growth for the trailing four fiscal quarter period, measured at the end of each fiscal quarter, of not less than 115% of the actual recurring revenue for the same period in the prior fiscal year. As of June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement.

Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2024
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the applicable regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The Company has prepared the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on a basis substantially consistent with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year or any future period. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures including certain disclosures required by GAAP on an annual basis. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
Principles of Consolidation	All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that its management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s estimates and judgments include, but are not limited to, the estimated period of benefit for incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer, the incremental borrowing rate for operating leases, calculation of allowance for credit losses, valuation of assets and liabilities acquired as part of business combinations, useful lives of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, income taxes, commitments and contingencies and litigation, among others. The Company is not aware of any events or circumstances that would require an update to its estimates and judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of August 2, 2024, the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Sales Commissions	Sales commissions earned by our sales force are considered incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Sales commissions are paid on initial contracts with new customers and for expansion of contracts with existing customers. Commissions are not paid on customer renewals. Sales commissions are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of benefit. The Company has historically estimated such period of benefit to be three years. On an annual basis, the Company assesses the expected period of benefit by taking into consideration the products sold, mix of customers, expected customer life, expected contract renewals, technology life cycle and other factors. Based on the assessment performed during the first quarter of 2024, the Company updated the period of benefit from three years to five years. This change in accounting estimate was effective January 1, 2024 and is being accounted for prospectively in the condensed consolidated financial statements. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the change in amortization period resulted in a $3.9 million and $8.1 million reduction to sales and marketing expense, respectively, or an increase of $0.07 and $0.14 per share basic and diluted, respectively. The effects of this change in estimate were calculated based on the carrying value of deferred commissions as of December 31, 2023.
Deferred Revenue	Deferred revenue is recorded upon establishment of unconditional right to payment under non-cancellable contracts and is recognized as the revenue recognition criteria are met. The Company generally invoices customers in advance in monthly, quarterly, semi-annual and annual installments. The deferred revenue balance is influenced by several factors, including the compounding effects of renewals, invoice duration, timing and size.
