1. | Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of the Business Compass, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 4, 2012 under the name Urban Compass, Inc. On January 8, 2021, the board of directors of the Company approved a change to the Company’s name from Urban Compass, Inc. to Compass, Inc. Compass provides an end-to-end platform that empowers its residential real estate agents to deliver exceptional service to seller and buyer clients. The Company’s platform includes an integrated suite of cloud-based software for customer relationship management, marketing, client service and other critical functionality, all custom-built for the real estate industry which enables the Company’s core brokerage services. The platform also uses proprietary data, analytics, AI, and machine learning to deliver high value recommendations and outcomes for Compass agents and their clients. The Company’s agents are independent contractors who affiliate their real estate licenses with Compass, operating their businesses on Compass’s platform and under the Compass brand. The Company generates revenue from clients through its agents by assisting home sellers and buyers in listing, marketing, selling and finding homes as well as through the provision of services adjacent to the transaction, like title and escrow services, which comprise a smaller portion of the Company’s revenue to date. The Company currently generates substantially all of its revenue from commissions paid by clients at the time that a home is transacted. Stock Split In March 2021, the Company’s board of directors and the stockholders of the Company approved a ten-for-one forward stock split of the Company’s common stock and convertible preferred stock (collectively, the “Capital Stock”), which became effective on March 19, 2021. The authorized number of each class and series of Capital Stock was proportiona l ly increased in accordance with the ten-for-one stock split and the par value of each class of Capital Stock was adjusted from $0.0001 to $0.00001 as a result of this forward stock split. All common stock, convertible preferred stock, stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and per share information presented within these condensed consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect this forward stock split on a retroactive basis for all periods presented, except where otherwise noted. Initial Public Offering On April 6, 2021, the Company completed its Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) and the Company’s Class A common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on April 1, 2021 under the symbol “COMP”. In connection with the IPO, the Company issued and sold 26,296,438 shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $18.00 per share. The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021 and for the period then-ended do not reflect the transaction since the IPO closed subsequent to the period end. The Company received aggregate proceeds of $449.7 million from the IPO, net of the underwriting discount and before offering costs of approximately $11.0 million. Offering costs, including the legal, accounting, printing and other IPO-related costs paid prior to the IPO, have been capitalized in Other non-current assets within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021 and upon completion of the IPO, these deferred offering costs will be reclassified to Additional paid-in capital and recorded against the proceeds from the offering. During April 2021, also in connection with the IPO, all series of the Company’s convertible preferred stock then outstanding were converted into 223,033,725 shares of common stock and the Company reclassified $1.4 billion of Convertible preferred stock to Additional paid-in-capital. On March 31, 2021, in connection with the effectiveness of the Company’s IPO registration statement, the Company recognized $148.5 million in stock-based compensation expense for (i) certain RSUs that contained both service-based and liquidity event-based vesting conditions as the liquidity event-based vesting condition was satisfied upon effectiveness of the registration statement and (ii) certain stock options and RSU awards with service, performance and market-based vesting conditions that include stock price targets to be met after the listing of the Company’s stock on a public exchange. Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of all controlled subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated statements of operations include the results of entities acquired from the date of the acquisition. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared by management on a basis consistent with the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods presented. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or any other future period. Certain information and notes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted under the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and regulations. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are included in the Company’s IPO prospectus on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
