Commitments and Contingencies Commitments and Contingencies
Minimum Guarantees
On October 8, 2021, the Company signed an amended agreement to revise and extend the existing partnership with U.S. News for six years. This agreement can be terminated after three years by either party. Under this amended agreement, the Company pays U.S. News a portion of the revenue generated with the end customers, subject to annual minimum guarantees. The annual minimum guarantees for all of the noncancelable periods have been paid as of March 31, 2024.
Other Contractual Commitments
Other contractual commitments relate mainly to third-party cloud infrastructure agreements and subscription agreements used to facilitate the Company’s operations.
The Company has a web hosting arrangement for 3 years ending December 31, 2024, with an annual commitment of $5.2 million. The Company made the final annual payment in January 2024 and no commitment remained as of March 31, 2024.
Indemnification
The Company enters into indemnification provisions under agreements with other companies in the ordinary course of business, including, but not limited to, clients, business partners, landlords, and other parties involved in the performance of the Company’s services. Pursuant to these arrangements, the Company has agreed to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse the indemnified party for certain losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party as a result of the Company’s activities. The terms of these indemnification agreements are generally perpetual. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these agreements is not determinable. The Company has not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. The Company maintains commercial general liability insurance and product liability insurance that may offset certain of its potential liabilities under these indemnification provisions.
In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify its officers and directors and certain key employees while they are serving in good faith in their respective capacities. To date, there have been no material claims under these indemnification provisions.
Legal Matters
Beginning in April 2024, the Company and certain of our directors and officers have been named in lawsuits in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The first lawsuit captioned Kissler v. Doximity, Inc., et al. (Apr. 17, 2024) is a putative securities class action brought on behalf of our investors from February 9, 2022 and April 1, 2024 and asserts claims against the Company, our CEO and CFO for misrepresentations and omissions about our growth and profitability. The second lawsuit captioned Dalton v. Doximity, Inc., et al. (May 9, 2024) is brought derivatively on behalf of the Company, and asserts claims for, among other things, breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste against certain of our directors and officers on a similar basis to the securities lawsuit. Other similar lawsuits or proceedings may be initiated in the future. The defendants intend to defend vigorously against these actions. In light
of, among other things, the early stage of the litigation, the Company is unable to predict the outcome of these matters and is unable to reasonably estimate the amount or range of loss, if any, that could result from an unfavorable outcome,
From time to time, the Company has become involved in claims and other legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company investigates these claims as they arise. Although claims are inherently unpredictable, the Company is currently not aware of any other matters that, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually or taken together have a material effect on its results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. No loss contingencies were recorded for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.
