Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable U.S. securities laws, including statements regarding our goal of driving profitable, efficient growth in both of our operating segments, with a particular emphasis on subscription revenue growth; our focus on high-margin software solutions and continued investment in hardware authentication solutions; revenue trends, including revenue expectations for our hardware business; estimates concerning the timing and amount of savings, improvements in Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization), and/or restructuring charges that may result from our cost reduction and restructuring actions; our plans for managing our Security Solutions and Digital Agreements segments; expectations about trends in our cost of goods sold, gross margin, and sales and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative expenses; the impact of foreign currency rate fluctuations; expectations regarding sources and uses of cash; and our general expectations regarding our operational or financial performance in the future.

PART I
Item 1 – Business
Overview
OneSpan delivers cutting-edge solutions in two key areas: advanced secure authentication and digital agreements. Our secure authentication solutions protect devices, users, and applications with robust multi-factor and passwordless authentication and other fraud prevention technologies. Our digital agreements solutions combine identity verification, electronic signatures, and digital workflows to streamline agreements, enhance compliance, and accelerate business processes. We empower organizations to automate and secure both customer-facing and revenue-generating processes, supporting a wide range of use cases—from simple transactions to complex workflows requiring elevated security. Trusted by global blue-chip enterprises, including more than 60% of the world’s 100 largest banks, OneSpan processes millions of digital agreements and billions of secure authentication transactions in more than 100 countries annually.
We offer our products primarily through a subscription licensing model and provide multiple deployment options, including cloud-based and on-premises solutions. Our solutions are sold worldwide through our direct sales force, as well as through distributors, resellers, systems integrators, and original equipment manufacturers.
Business Segments
We report our financial results under the following two lines of business, which are our reportable operating segments: Security Solutions and Digital Agreements
•Security Solutions. Security Solutions consists of our broad portfolio of software products, software development kits (SDKs), and Digipass authenticator devices that are used to build applications designed to defend against attacks on digital transactions across online environments, devices, and applications. The software products and SDKs included in the Security Solutions segment are on-premises and, to a lesser extent, cloud software products, and include multi-factor authentication and transaction signing solutions, such as mobile application security and mobile software tokens.
•Digital Agreements. Digital Agreements consists of solutions that enable our clients to secure and automate business processes associated with their digital agreement and customer transaction lifecycles that require consent, non-repudiation and compliance. These solutions, which are largely cloud-based, include OneSpan Sign e-signature, OneSpan Notary, and Identity Verification.
Business Developments
During 2022 and the first half of 2023, OneSpan was operating under a three-year strategic plan that focused on driving revenue growth in Digital Agreements. However, in mid-2023, we determined that we were unlikely to achieve the revenue growth levels set forth in that strategic plan within the contemplated three-year timeframe due to a number of factors, including increasing maturity and competitiveness in the market for e-signature solutions, limited awareness of our brand among buyers of e-signature tools, and higher pricing aggressiveness from competitors.
In response to these challenges, we modified our strategy to focus more heavily on improving profitability across the business. To this end, in August 2023, our Board approved additional restructuring actions designed to achieve higher levels of profitability while maintaining the Company's long-term growth potential.
We now seek to drive profitable, efficient growth in both operating segments, with a particular emphasis on subscription revenue growth. Digital Agreements became profitable for the first time in the third quarter of 2024 and both operating segments were profitable for the full year 2024. Security Solutions and Digital Agreements subscription revenue grew 33% and 28% year-over-year in 2024, respectively.
Security Solutions total revenue decreased 1% in 2024, largely due to a reduction in hardware revenues driven by certain customers adopting a “mobile first” approach, which prioritizes the mobile user experience over traditional desktop experiences, particularly for consumer banking. This approach has resulted in a reduction of Digipass hardware authenticator sales and an increase in sales of software authentication licenses delivered through software applications on mobile devices. As organizations embrace the convenience and accessibility of mobile technology, we expect to increase our focus on high-margin software solutions while continuing to invest in our hardware authentication solutions in order to meet diverse customer needs.

Digital Agreements total revenue increased 20% in 2024 and we substantially completed transitioning the segment to a software as a service ("SaaS") revenue model.
Industry Background
While digital transformation, the shift to cloud-delivered experiences and the growing adoption of artificial intelligence ("AI")-powered technologies across all industries have helped increase the pace of innovation and business execution, they have also increased security risks for organizations, their customers, and their employees. People and records associated with business interactions, transactions, and agreements have become the biggest attack surface, or point of vulnerability, to cyber-attacks.
Account takeover attacks ("ATO"), a rapidly growing cyber threat, are exploiting vulnerabilities in user authentication, targeting individuals and enterprises alike. Another growing threat is authorized push payment fraud (APP fraud), in which victims are manipulated into making real-time payments to fraudsters, typically by social engineering attacks involving impersonation. Additionally, the rise of generative AI in cyber threats has amplified the sophistication of phishing campaigns and social engineering attacks. Without secure and enforceable business processes and outcomes, companies everywhere are vulnerable to these and other cybersecurity threats. However, current security measures are typically at odds with the pressure for organizations to drive growth and support increasing customer expectations for frictionless user experiences.
For high-value transactions and agreements that have shifted to digital workflows, these challenges are amplified due to the fragmented legal requirements, regulatory rules, and complexity associated with doing business across state and national borders. In addition to automating and securing these digital workflows, cross-border identity verification, data privacy, and sovereignty regulations vary from one jurisdiction to the next, complicating compliance for organizations operating globally.
We expect that these trends will continue to accelerate and evolve, creating an opportunity for OneSpan to leverage our global security roots to deliver technology that enables intuitive yet secure customer experiences.
Our Products and Services Portfolio
We offer a portfolio of security, authentication, identity, electronic signature, and digital workflow products and solutions through our two business segments, Security Solutions and Digital Agreements.
Security Solutions
Cloud Authentication is a quick-to-deploy, cloud-based multi-factor authentication solution that supports a full range of authentication options including biometrics, push notification, visual cryptograms for transaction data security, SMS, and hardware authenticators. This allows customers to solve strong authentication problems across different endpoints to best meet their unique requirements through a single provider rather than integrating multiple modalities together. It eliminates cost associated with managing legacy on-premises authentication technology and provides a straightforward upgrade path to more comprehensive capabilities such as intelligent adaptive authentication.
Mobile Security Suite is a comprehensive software development Kit (SDK) and unique single framework that integrates built-in application security to allow for a variety of strong authentication technologies, dynamic linking, WYSIWYS (What-You-See-Is-What-You-Sign), authentication orchestration, and improved authentication user interface. Through a comprehensive library of APIs, customers can extend and strengthen security for applications, deliver user convenience, and streamline the application deployment and lifecycle management process.
Mobile Application Shielding protects mobile applications from attacks by malware, allowing secure usage of mobile applications even in hostile environments (e.g., on jailbroken mobile phones). The technology helps protect mobile application code against malicious code injection such that if a device becomes infected with malware, the application shielding technology will detect and prevent that code from running.
Authentication Server is a comprehensive, centralized, and flexible authentication platform designed to provide full lifecycle management through a single, integrated system. It enables secure multi-factor authentication for digital transactions and user access, supporting a wide range of authentication methods, including biometrics, one-time passwords, and mobile push notifications. By offering broad access to enterprise resources—from SSL VPNs to cloud-based applications—it enhances security while simplifying authentication management for both administrators and end users.
2

Authentication Suite is a comprehensive solution designed to protect organizations from cyber threats while offering authentication experiences across channels. With a flexible API-driven backend, support for both hardware and software authenticators, and a robust mobile SDK, the suite provides scalable security for high-volume applications like online banking, e-commerce, and gaming. Organizations can tailor authentication methods to meet their unique security needs, leveraging industry standards and technologies such as the FIDO and OATH standards, our Digipass technology, and our Cronto visual transaction signing solution for enhanced protection against sophisticated attacks. Its integration capabilities simplify deployment without disrupting existing systems, while built-in mobile authentication licenses enable secure user access across multiple devices.
Digipass Authenticators are our hardware authenticators, consisting of a wide variety of authentication devices, each of which has its own distinct characteristics to meet the needs of our customers. All models of Digipass authenticators are designed to work together so customers can switch devices without making changes to their existing infrastructure, and they are also fully interoperable with our mobile authentication software. Our Digipass models range from one-button devices and smart card readers to devices that include more advanced technologies, such as public key infrastructure ("PKI") and visual cryptography.
Our Digipass authenticators provide proven multi-factor authentication and transaction data signing. Our newer Digipass FX family of authenticators are FIDO2-certified phishing-resistant passkeys that enable passwordless authentication, significantly reducing the risk of social engineering. Our Digipass FX authenticators use the FIDO2 protocol, employing a private and public key pair system whereby private keys and biometric data never leave the device, thereby avoiding vulnerabilities associated with human error, such as phishing and password reuse.
Digital Agreements
OneSpan Sign supports a broad range of e-signature requirements from simple to complex, and from the occasional agreement to processing tens of thousands of transactions. OneSpan Sign provides multiple public cloud deployment options to meet global data residency needs. The solution is also available in a Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program ("FedRAMP") SaaS-level compliant cloud, allowing U.S. government agencies to implement e- signatures in the cloud and meet General Services Administration ("GSA") security requirements.
Customers can fully "white label" and configure OneSpan Sign to reinforce their brand for a seamless signing experience. Each step of the digital agreement workflow can be customized, from authentication to e-signing and secure digital storage. OneSpan Sign also provides comprehensive and secure electronic evidence for strong legal protection by capturing all actions that took place during the agreement process. This reduces the time and cost of gathering evidence and demonstrating legal and regulatory compliance. E-signature capabilities can be a critical component of the account opening and onboarding processes, providing a secure and user-friendly way to execute legally binding agreements.
OneSpan Notary is an online notary solution developed for organizations with in-house notaries. It includes live electronic signature, two-way secured videoconferencing, and strong identity proofing options, like ID Verification and Knowledge-based Authentication ("KBA"). It also simplifies the notarization process with guided workflows, the ability to upload eNotary Seal, recording, eJournaling, and audit trail capabilities in a single solution. OneSpan Notary is currently available for use in 30 U.S. states.
OneSpan Identity Verification gives banks and other financial institutions access to a wide range of identity verification services – all through a single API integration. This includes identity document (e.g., driver’s license, passport, etc.) capture and real-time authenticity verification, as well as facial comparison (“selfie”) and liveness detection (the ability to detect whether a digital interaction is with a live human being) to establish that the individual presenting the identity document is the same person whose picture appears on the authenticated identity document. Starting January 1, 2024, we began presenting OneSpan Identity Verification in the Digital Agreements segment to reflect the greater alignment of this solution with our Digital Agreements product portfolio.
OneSpan Integration Platform is a modern platform that enables organizations to easily integrate e-signatures powered by OneSpan Sign into well-known applications such as Microsoft Apps, Google Workspace, Salesforce, and Workday. These pre-built integrations allow organizations to manage an efficient, modern digital agreement process. Unlike traditional API-based e-signature implementations that demand significant time and budget, OneSpan Integration Platform offers a cost-effective, easy-to-deploy solution that addresses cross-departmental needs while enabling robust security and compliance. Leveraging pre-built low-code/no-code integrations reduces development costs and eliminates the need for specialized expertise.

Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights and Licenses
We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, design, and trade secret laws, as well as employee and third-party non-disclosure agreements to protect our intellectual property ("IP") and other proprietary rights. We hold patents in the U.S. and in other countries, which cover multiple aspects of our technology. These patents expire between 2026 and 2040. In addition to the issued patents, we also have several patent applications pending in the U.S., Europe, and other countries. Many of our issued and pending patents are related to our Digipass product line. In addition to our owned IP, we license software from third parties for integration into our solutions, including open-source software and other software available on commercially reasonable terms.
We furthermore have registrations for most of our trademarks in most of the markets where we sell the corresponding products and services, as well as registrations of the designs of many of our Digipass devices, primarily in the European Union ("EU") and China.
Protecting IP rights can be difficult, particularly in countries that provide less protection to IP rights and in the absence of harmonized international IP standards. Competitors and others may already have IP rights covering similar products. We may not be able to secure IP rights covering our own products or may have difficulties obtaining IP licenses from other companies on commercially favorable terms. For a discussion of IP-related risks, see Item IA, Risk Factors.
Research and Development
Our research and development efforts are focused primarily on enhancing our solutions by building new features, functionality, and applications; developing technology to support new products; enhancing our transaction-cloud platform; and conducting product and quality assurance testing. We employ a team of full-time engineers and, from time to time, also engage independent engineering firms to conduct certain product development efforts on our behalf. For fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, we incurred expenses, net of software capitalization, of $32.4 million, $38.4 million, and $41.7 million, respectively, for research and development.
Production
Our Digipass authentication devices are manufactured by third-party manufacturers at several independent factories in Southern China and one within the European Union, in Romania. We maintain local personnel in China to conduct quality control and quality assurance procedures. Periodic visits to the factories are conducted by our personnel for quality management, assembly process review, and supplier relations.
Digipass devices are made primarily from commercially available electronic components, including microprocessors purchased from several suppliers. We purchase microprocessors and arrange for shipment to our third-party manufacturers for assembly and testing in accordance with our design specifications. The microprocessors are the most important components of the devices which are not commodity items readily available on the open market.
During 2022, the supply chain for our Digipass devices was impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the inflationary cost environment, particularly with respect to materials in the semiconductor market, including part shortages, increased freight costs, diminished transportation capacity and labor constraints. This resulted in disruptions in our supply chain during 2022, as well as difficulties and delays in procuring certain microprocessors. In addition, since late 2021, our costs have increased due to elevated lead times and increased material costs, in particular the need to purchase microprocessors from alternative sources. Although the supply chain issues we saw in 2022 stabilized during 2023 and continued to be relatively stable during 2024, global supply chains for semiconductors and electronic components remain vulnerable to disruption from range of risks, including natural disasters and extreme weather, geopolitical disputes, tariffs or trade disputes, regional or global conflicts, and scarcity of certain minerals and components.
In response to these supply chain conditions, beginning in 2022, we focused on improving our supplier network, engineering alternative designs, and working to reduce supply shortages and mitigate their impact. We actively manage our inventory in an effort to minimize supply chain disruptions and enable continuity of supply and services to our customers, and we may maintain elevated levels of inventory for certain of our products to prepare for potential supply constraints. We also regularly evaluate alternative manufacturing and supply arrangements, including moving more of our manufacturing from China to Romania or other locations, to mitigate supply chain risks. Despite these efforts, we may experience additional supply chain disruptions or cost increases affecting our Digipass business in the future. Please see Item IA, Risk Factors, for additional information.

Our software solutions are produced in-house or developed by third parties and sold under license.
Competition
The market for digital solutions for security, authentication, identity, electronic signature, and digital workflow products is very competitive and, like most technology-driven markets, is subject to rapid change and constantly evolving solutions and services. Our identity verification and authentication products are designed to allow authorized users access to digital business processes and properties, in some cases using patented technology, as a replacement for or supplement to a static password. Our main competitors in our identity verification and authentication markets are Gemalto (a subsidiary of Thales Group), RSA Security and Yubico. There are also many other companies in adjacent areas, such as mobile device management "(MDM"), threat protection, and identity and access management ("IAM"), that offer competing services.
In addition to these companies, we face competition from many small authentication solution providers, many of whom offer new technologies and niche solutions such as biometric or risk and behavioral analysis. We believe that competition in this market is likely to intensify as a result of increasing demand for security products.
Our primary competitors for electronic signature solutions are DocuSign and Adobe Systems. Both companies are significantly larger than us. In addition to these companies, there are numerous smaller and regional or niche providers of electronic signing solutions.
We believe that the principal competitive factors affecting the market for digital solutions for security, authentication, identity, electronic signature, and digital workflow products include the strength and effectiveness of the solution, technical features, ease of use, quality and reliability, customer service and support, brand recognition, customer base, distribution channels, and the total cost of ownership of the solution. With the exception of brand recognition, we believe that our products are currently competitive with respect to these factors; nevertheless, we may not be able to maintain our competitive position against current and potential competitors. Some of our present and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, purchasing, and other resources. As a result, they may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of products, to establish and maintain greater brand recognition, or to deliver competitive products at a lower end-user price. Please see Item IA, Risk Factors, for additional information.
Sales and Marketing
Our solutions are sold worldwide through our direct sales force as well as through distributors, resellers, systems integrators, and original equipment manufacturers. Our sales staff coordinates sales activity through both our sales channels and those of our partners, making direct sales calls either alone or with the sales personnel of our partners. Our sales staff also provides product education seminars to sales and technical personnel of resellers and distributors and to potential end users of our products.
Customers and Markets
The majority of our revenue is derived from financial institutions, which include traditional banks, credit unions, and online-only banks. We also sell to the enterprise market segment, government, healthcare, and insurance industries in select regions around the globe.
Our top 10 customers contributed 20%, 22%, and 23% in 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively, of our total worldwide revenue.
Because a significant portion of our sales is denominated in foreign currencies, changes in exchange rates impact results of operations. To mitigate exposure to risks associated with fluctuations in currency exchange rates, we attempt to denominate an amount of billings in a currency such that it would provide a natural hedge against operating expenses being incurred in that currency. For additional information regarding how currency fluctuations can affect our business, please refer to Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Information included in the notes to consolidated financial statements in Part IV of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a breakdown of revenue, gross profit and long-lived assets between the U.S. and other regions.
Government Regulation
As a global cybersecurity and e-signature company, we are subject to complex and evolving global regulations in the various jurisdictions in which our products and services are used. Also, because banking and financial services is our largest industry target market, the government regulations affecting our customers in this area, such as the European Union Digital Operations Resilience Act, have a significant indirect effect on our business. Similar regulatory dynamics occur in the other primary markets where we have customers, such as healthcare and government. In addition, since we have significant operations in Europe, we are subject to many European Union laws concerning sustainability, which have been and may continue to be costly to comply with. Additional proposed or new legislation and regulations could also materially affect our business. Please see Item IA, Risk Factors, for additional information.
Human Capital
OneSpan is powered by a team of approximately 571 employees that spans the globe, consisting of approximately 317 employees in the Americas, 221 employees in EMEA (includes Europe, the Middle East, and Africa), and 33 employees in the Asia Pacific region. As of December 31, 2024, approximately 107 of our employees were in in cost of goods sold, 150 in sales and marketing, 220 in research and development, and 94 in general and administrative.
We understand that achieving our business objectives will depend primarily on the skills, creativity, and determination of our people. We believe that people do their best work in an environment built on a compelling shared purpose, openness, trust, mutual accountability, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact. We therefore seek to create an environment that will attract, retain and develop talented people who are motivated to find opportunities and create new possibilities for our customers, for themselves and their teams, and for OneSpan. To achieve this goal, we focus on the areas described below.
Competitive Compensation and Benefits. We seek to provide our employees with competitive and fair compensation and benefit offerings, and use market benchmarks to ensure external competitiveness while maintaining equity within the organization. We tie incentive compensation to business performance and provide a range of health, wellness, family leave, savings, retirement, and time-off benefits for our employees, which vary based on local regulations and norms.
Engagement. We seek input from our employees regularly through a variety of channels, including informal interactions, regular one-to-one meetings between managers and employees, department meetings, quarterly virtual all-company meetings and employee engagement surveys. This input helps us assess our progress in promoting an environment where employees are engaged, productive, and have a strong sense of belonging. We also use employee feedback to identify areas where we can do better and expect our managers to actively work to improve those areas.
Hybrid Workplace Policy. For our employees who live near one of our offices, we have adopted a hybrid work model whereby employees generally come to the office in person one to three times per week, on days designated by local office leadership. For the rest of the week, employees may work either remotely or from their local office. We believe this approach maintains the flexibility of remote work while also providing a regular opportunity for in-person interactions to collaborate, innovate, and build relationships with colleagues.
Workplace Environment and Access to Talent. With approximately 571 employees around the world and customers in more than 100 countries, we believe that our business benefits from a workplace that includes employees with a range of perspectives, experience, backgrounds and cultures. All of our employees take an annual training covering anti-harassment content and respect in the workplace.
We work with a variety of job sites and candidate application platforms to increase our access to a broad pool of potential employees. We also monitor the composition of our workforce by gender on an ongoing basis in order to make sure we are accessing and retaining the full range of available talent. We measure gender composition overall, by job level, and by job family. As of December 31, 2024, approximately 30% of our employees identified as female, down slightly from 31% in the end of 2023 and 2022 but up from 27% at the end of 2021. The percentage of women by job level (executive, vice president, director, manager, supervisor and individual) and job family (consisting of general and
6

administrative, research and development, sales and marketing, and Digipass) did not change materially in 2024 as compared to 2023.
Training and Talent Development. We promote and support employee development, compliance and organizational effectiveness by providing professional development and compliance training. All of our employees take a required annual training on the following topics: our code of conduct and ethics; cybersecurity; and preventing sexual harassment. In addition, we make a variety of professional development courses available to our employees at the Company's cost.
Feedback and Coaching. We believe regular feedback is an important component of employee development. Our managers provide ongoing feedback and performance coaching to their direct reports in regular one-to-one meetings, and are also encouraged to solicit their teams’ feedback on their own performance.
Employee Recognition. We recognize our employees for driving business results and exemplifying our company values. We believe that these recognition programs help drive strong employee performance. Employees also have access to an internal communications channel to recognize their peers for their contributions to the company.
Community Outreach. We encourage employee volunteerism in the communities where we live and work by providing each employee with one paid day off each year to participate in volunteer activities of their choice.
Monitoring Employee Turnover. We monitor voluntary turnover and total attrition, as a whole and by tenure, region, and by job family. Total attrition captures all reasons employees leave, including voluntary turnover and involuntary turnover due to job eliminations or performance reasons, whereas voluntary turnover is limited to elective departures by employees. Our voluntary turnover across our global employee base in 2024 was 12.4%, which we believe compares favorably with global voluntary turnover rates in the technology industry. Our total attrition in 2024 was 24.3%, primarily due to our cost reduction and restructuring efforts discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 1A - Risk Factors
Risk Factors Summary
Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” immediately following this Risk Factors Summary. These summary risks provide an overview of many of the risks we are exposed to in the normal course of our business, some of which have manifested and any of which may occur in the future. As a result, the following summary risks do not contain all of the information that may be important to you, and you should read them together with the more detailed discussion of risks set forth following this section under the heading “Risk Factors,” and with the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Additional risks beyond those summary risks discussed below, in “Risk Factors” or elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects, and could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline. Our business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects could also be harmed by risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently do not believe are material. Consistent with the foregoing, we are exposed to a variety of risks, including the following significant risks:
•We may experience difficulties increasing or maintaining our rate of revenue growth.
•If our new product offerings and product enhancements do not keep pace with the needs of our customers or do not achieve sufficient customer acceptance, our competitive position and financial results will be negatively impacted.
•A significant portion of our sales are to a limited number of customers. The loss of substantial sales to any one of them could have an adverse effect on revenues and profits.
•The markets we serve are highly competitive, which may negatively affect our ability to add new customers, retain existing customers and grow our business.
•If we are not able to enhance our brand recognition and maintain our brand reputation, our business may be adversely affected.
•Our Digipass authenticator business has a complex global supply chain and is dependent on a limited number of suppliers for certain components, such that supply chain disruptions could materially impact our operations. Our Digipass business may also experience inventory-related losses.
•The sales cycle for our products is often long, and we may incur substantial expenses for sales that do not occur when anticipated or at all.
•Security breaches or cyberattacks could expose us to significant liability, cause our business and reputation to suffer and harm our competitive position.
•Real or perceived malfunctions and errors in our products could result in warranty and product liability risks and economic and reputational damages.
•If we are unable to retain key employees and successfully hire and train qualified new employees, we may be unable to achieve our business objectives. In addition, we may experience negative effects from the significant workforce reductions we have completed over the past several years.
•We depend on third-party hosting providers and other technology vendors, as well as our own infrastructure, to provide our products and solutions to our customers in a timely manner. Interruptions or delays in performance of our products and solutions could result in customer dissatisfaction, damage to our reputation, loss of customers, and a reduction in revenue.
•Our success depends in part on establishing and maintaining relationships with other companies to distribute our technology and products or to incorporate their technology into our products and services, or vice versa.
•We have operated at a loss for two of the past three years, and we may not be profitable in the future.
•Our financial results may fluctuate from period to period, making it difficult to project future results. If we fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors, the price of our common stock could decline.
•Consolidations, failures and other developments in the banking and financial services industry may adversely impact our revenue.
•We face a number of risks associated with our international operations, any or all of which could result in a disruption in our business and a decrease in our revenue.
•Acquisitions or other strategic transactions may not achieve the intended benefits or may disrupt our current plans and operations.
•We may be subject to legal proceedings and/or liability for a variety of claims, including intellectual property disputes, labor and employment issues, commercial disagreements, securities law violations and other matters. These proceedings may be costly, subject us to significant liability, limit our ability to use certain technologies, increase our costs of doing business or otherwise adversely affect our business and operating results.
•We are subject to numerous laws, regulations and customer and product certification requirements governing the design, production, distribution, sale, use, and availability of our products. Any failure to comply with these laws,
9

regulations and requirements could result in unanticipated costs and other negative impacts, and could have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Risk Factors
Our business involves significant risks, some of which are described below. You should carefully consider the following risks, some of which have manifested and any of which may occur in the future, together with all of the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including in the preceding Risk Factors Summary, and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K before making an investment decision with respect to any of our securities.
Risks Related to our Business and Industry
We may experience difficulties increasing or maintaining our rate of revenue growth.
During 2024, we made significant strides in improving profitability across our business, including achieving profitability in our Digital Agreements segment for the first time. Our revenue also grew modestly during 2024, and we are aiming to continue to grow our revenue in both Security Solutions and Digital Agreements going forward; however, this may be challenging. We expect revenue from our Digipass authenticator tokens to decrease modestly on a year-over-year basis in 2025, consistent with trends over the past decade as our banking customers have generally moved toward “mobile-first” authentication (authentication solutions delivered through a software application on a mobile device), especially for consumer banking. We will therefore need to grow our revenue relatively more in the software component of our Security Solutions segment and in the Digital Agreements segment to compensate for the anticipated decline in hardware as well as, to a lesser extent, the impact of the sunsetting of certain of our products in 2022, 2023 and 2024 and the decrease in maintenance and support revenue as we continue to transition legacy perpetual maintenance contracts to term licenses. Although we are making additional investments in software product development and in channel partnerships to enhance our software solutions, these efforts may not yield the additional revenue we seek for various reasons, such as competition, delays and challenges in developing products that meet our customers’ needs, long sales cycles, lack of brand awareness, general economic conditions, and other risks described in these Risk Factors. If we are unable to grow our revenue as planned, we may also be unable to continue to gradually increase our profitability, since we have already implemented significant restructuring activities over the past several years.
If our new product offerings and product enhancements do not keep pace with the needs of our customers or do not achieve sufficient customer acceptance, our competitive position and financial results will be negatively impacted.
Technological changes occur rapidly in our industry and development of new products and features is critical to maintain and grow our revenue. Our ability to attract and retain customers will depend in part upon our ability to enhance our current products and develop innovative new solutions to distinguish us from the competition and to meet customers’ changing needs. For instance, we believe that our bank and financial institution customers, who account for a majority of our revenue, may increasingly move away from multi-factor authentication methods and toward passkeys that use the FIDO2 passwordless authentication standard. If we are unable to provide our customers with high quality and innovative passkey solutions, or if we otherwise do not anticipate or adapt to changing technology, industry standards or customer requirements on a timely basis, competitive position and financial results will be negatively impacted.
Product developments and technology innovations by others may adversely affect our competitive position. The introduction by our competitors of products embodying new technologies or the emergence of new industry standards could render our existing products obsolete and unmarketable. For example, if our competitors are able to more quickly and effectively integrate new technologies such as generative artificial intelligence into their products, our competitive position may suffer.
We spend substantial amounts of time and money to research and develop new offerings and enhanced versions of our existing offerings in order to meet our customers’ rapidly evolving needs. When we develop a new offering or an enhanced version of an existing offering, we typically incur expenses and expend resources upfront to market, promote and sell the new offering. Therefore, when we develop or acquire new or enhanced offerings, their introduction must achieve high levels of market acceptance in order to justify the amount of our investment in developing and bringing them to market. In some cases, we determine that product initiatives we initially believed were promising do not warrant further investment. For example, in 2023, we decided to discontinue investments in our Digipass CX product in order to rationalize and focus our product portfolio, and incurred non-cash charges as a result. If other recent or future new product
10

offerings do not garner widespread customer adoption and implementation, we may incur future non-cash charges and our business may be adversely affected.
A significant portion of our sales are to a limited number of customers. The loss of substantial sales to any one of them could have an adverse effect on revenues and profits.
We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from a limited number of customers. The loss of substantial sales to any one of them could adversely affect our operations and results. In 2024, 2023, and 2022, our top 10 largest customers contributed 20%, 22%, and 23%, respectively, of our total worldwide revenue.
The markets we serve are highly competitive, which may negatively affect our ability to add new customers, retain existing customers and grow our business.
The market for digital solutions for security, authentication, identity, electronic signature, and digital workflow solutions is very competitive and, like most technology-driven markets, is subject to rapid change and constantly evolving solutions and services.
Our identity verification and authentication products are designed to allow authorized users access to digital business processes and properties, in some cases using patented technology, as a replacement for or supplement to a static password. Our main competitors in our identity verification and authentication markets are Gemalto, a subsidiary of Thales Group, Yubico and RSA Security. There are also many other companies in adjacent areas, such as mobile device management ("MDM"), threat protection, and identity and access management ("IAM"), that offer competing services In addition to these companies, we face competition from many small authentication solution providers, many of whom offer new technologies and niche solutions such as biometric or risk and behavioral analysis. We believe that competition in this market is likely to intensify as a result of increasing demand for security products.
Our primary competitors for electronic signature solutions are DocuSign and Adobe Systems. Both companies are significantly larger than us. In addition to these companies, there are numerous smaller and regional or niche providers of electronic signing solutions.
Some of our present and potential competitors have significantly greater brand awareness and financial, technical, marketing, purchasing, and other resources than we do. As a result, they may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of products, or deliver competitive products at a lower end-user price than we do. These factors have made it more difficult for us to compete successfully and may continue to do so, which would negatively affect our business.
If we are not able to enhance our brand recognition and maintain our brand reputation, our business may be adversely affected.
We believe that enhancing our brand recognition is important to our efforts to attract new customers and channel partners, and that our relative lack of brand awareness has made it more challenging to acquire new customers. Our brand recognition and reputation are dependent upon numerous factors, including:
•our marketing efforts;
•our ability to continue to offer high quality, innovative and reliable products;
•our ability to maintain customer satisfaction with our products;
•our ability to be responsive to customer concerns and provide high quality customer support, training and professional services;
•any misuse or perceived misuse of our products;
•positive or negative publicity, including through reviews by industry analysts;
•our ability to prevent or quickly react to any cyberattack on our information technology systems or security breach of or related to our software; and
•litigation or regulatory-related developments.
Improving our brand recognition is likely to require significant additional expenditures and may not be successful or yield increased revenues. If we do not successfully enhance our brand and maintain our reputation, we may continue to have difficulties attracting new customers, including due to reduced pricing power relative to competitors with stronger brands, and we could lose customers or renewals, which would adversely affect our business.
11

Our Digipass authenticator business has a complex global supply chain and is dependent on a limited number of suppliers for certain components, such that supply chain disruptions could materially impact our operations. Our Digipass business may also experience inventory-related losses.
In the event that the supply of components or finished products for our Digipass authenticator business is interrupted or relations with any of our principal component vendors or contract manufacturers is terminated, there could be increased costs and considerable delay in finding suitable replacement sources for components or alternative manufacturers for our hardware products. Our Digipass authentication devices are currently assembled at several facilities located in mainland China and one facility in Romania. The importation of these products from China and Romania exposes us to the possibility of product supply disruption and increased costs in the event of changes in the policies of the Chinese, Romanian or EU governments, political unrest, natural disasters, extreme weather or unstable economic conditions in China, Romania or the EU, or developments in China, Romania, the U.S. or the EU that are adverse to trade, including enactment of tariffs or other protectionist legislation. We experienced supply chain disruption in 2022 as a result of China’s implementation and subsequent reversal of its “Zero COVID” policy and extreme heatwaves and drought affecting southern China, both of which affected our China-based contract manufacturers. We may experience similar disruptions again due to numerous factors, including tariffs and trade disputes, geopolitical tensions, armed conflict, impacts as a result of pandemics or other public health threats, and natural disasters and extreme weather, which may occur more frequently due to climate change. These factors have in the past, and may in the future, cause delays in our fulfillment of customer orders, which may in turn delay our recognition of revenue from such orders or cause customers not to place orders or to seek alternative suppliers.
To mitigate the risks associated with our China-based contract manufacturing facilities, we regularly evaluate alternative manufacturing and supply arrangements, such as moving some of the Digipass manufacturing currently done in China to Romania or to other locations. It is possible that such a transition, if it occurred, would cause a disruption in our Digipass manufacturing operations. Regardless of whether we undertake such a transition, supply chain disruptions or related cost increases affecting our Digipass devices could have a material adverse impact on our business.
Under some circumstances, we may purchase multiple years’ supply of parts for our Digipass authenticator devices based on internal forecasts of demand, anticipated supply chain constraints, or other reasons. To meet customers’ demands for accelerated delivery of product, we sometimes produce finished product for existing customers before we receive the executed order from the customer. Should our forecasts of future demand be inaccurate or if we produce product that is never ordered, we could incur substantial losses related to the realization of our inventory.
The sales cycle for our products is often long, and we may incur substantial expenses for sales that do not occur when anticipated or at all.
The sales cycle for our products, which is the period of time between the identification of a potential customer and completion of the sale, is typically lengthy and subject to a number of significant risks over which we have little control.
A typical sales cycle in the financial services market is often nine to 18 months long. We often need to spend significant time and resources to better educate and familiarize these potential customers with the value proposition of our products and solutions. Purchasing decisions for our products and services may be subject to delays due to a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control, such as:
•Time required for a prospective customer to recognize the need for our products;
•Effectiveness of our salesforce;
•Changes to regulatory requirements;
•The complexity of contracts with certain large business customers;
•The significant expense of some of our products and systems;
•Customer budgeting and procurement processes;
•Economic and other factors impacting customer budgets; and
•Customer evaluation, testing and approval process.
The timing of sales with our enterprise customers and related revenue recognition is difficult to predict because of the length and unpredictability of the sales cycle for these customers. As our operating expenses are based on anticipated revenue levels, a small fluctuation in the timing of sales can cause our operating results to vary significantly between
12

periods. In addition, during the sales cycle, we expend significant time and money on sales and marketing and contract negotiation activities, which may not result in a sale.
Security breaches or cyberattacks could expose us to significant liability, cause our business and reputation to suffer and harm our competitive position.
Our corporate infrastructure stores and processes our sensitive, proprietary and other confidential information (including information related to finance, technology, employees, marketing, sales, etc.) which is used daily in our operations. In addition, our solutions involve transmission and processing of our customers' confidential, proprietary, personal and sensitive information. We have legal and contractual obligations to protect the confidentiality and appropriate use of customer data. Because we are a digital agreements and cybersecurity company, and because the majority of our customers are banks and other financial institutions, which are frequent targets of cyberattacks, we may be an attractive target for cyber attackers or other data thieves.
High-profile cyberattacks and security breaches have increased in recent years, with the potential for such acts heightened because of the number of employees working remotely since the COVID-19 pandemic and the increase in sophisticated cyberattack methods, such as the use of artificial intelligence to launch automated, accelerated and enhanced cyberattacks. Because techniques used to obtain unauthorized access or to sabotage systems are constantly evolving, change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a specific target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. As we seek to increase our client base and expand awareness of our brand, we may become a greater target for third parties seeking to compromise our security systems and we anticipate that hacking attempts and cyberattacks will increase in the future.
We have experienced several security incidents in the past. None have been material to date, but it is possible that we will experience a material event in the future. Even though we have established teams, processes and strategies to protect our assets, we may not always be successful in preventing or repelling unauthorized access to our systems. We also may face delays in our ability to identify or otherwise respond to a cybersecurity incident or other breach. Additionally, we use third-party service providers to provide some services to us that involve the storage or transmission of data, such as SaaS, cloud computing, and internet infrastructure and bandwidth, and they face various cybersecurity threats and may suffer cybersecurity incidents or other security breaches. Despite our security measures, our IT and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks. Threats to IT security can take a variety of forms. Individuals and groups of hackers and sophisticated organizations, including state-sponsored organizations or nation-states, continuously undertake attacks that pose threats to our customers and our own IT. These actors may use a wide variety of methods, which may include utilizing our products to launch phishing attacks, developing and deploying malicious software or exploiting vulnerabilities in hardware, software, or other infrastructure in order to attack our products and services or gain access to our networks, using social engineering techniques to induce our employees, users, partners, or customers to disclose passwords or other sensitive information or take other actions to gain access to our data or our users’ or customers’ data, or acting in a coordinated manner to launch distributed denial of service or other coordinated attacks. Inadequate account security practices may also result in unauthorized access to confidential and/or sensitive data.
Security incidents may have a number of negative consequences to us, including the following: requiring us to expend significant capital and other resources to alleviate the incidents and to improve our security technologies; impairing our ability to provide services to our customers and protect the privacy of their data delaying product development efforts; compromising confidential or technical business information or personal data; harming our reputation or competitive position; resulting in theft or misuse of our intellectual property or other assets; and exposing us to substantial litigation expenses and damages, indemnity and other contractual obligations, government fines and penalties, mitigation expenses, costs for remediation and incentives offered to affected parties, including customers, other business partners and employees, in an effort to maintain business relationships after an incident. We are continuously working to improve our IT systems, together with creating security boundaries around our critical and sensitive assets. We provide security awareness training to our employees and our key contractors that focuses on various aspects of cybersecurity. All these steps are taken to mitigate the risk of attack and to ensure our readiness to responsibly manage a security violation or attack. However, we may nevertheless be unable to anticipate attacks or to implement adequate preventative measures. If an actual or perceived breach of our security occurs, the market perception of the effectiveness of our security measures and our products could be harmed, we could lose potential sales and existing customers, our ability to operate our business could be impaired, we may incur significant liabilities, we could suffer harm to our reputation and competitive position, and our business and financial condition could be negatively impacted.
13

Real or perceived malfunctions and errors in our products could result in warranty and product liability risks and economic and reputational damages.
Our products are inherently complex and may malfunction or contain undetected errors or defects when first introduced or as new versions are released. We have experienced these malfunctions and errors or defects in connection with new products and product upgrades, and we expect that these malfunctions, errors and defects will continue to be found from time to time in new or enhanced products. Malfunctions and defects may make our products vulnerable to attacks, prevent vulnerability detection, result in system instability or latency-related delays, or temporarily impact our customers' environments. These problems may result in a breach of a legal obligation or may cause physical harm or damage which could result in tort or warranty claims against us. We seek to reduce the risk of these losses by using qualified engineers in the design, manufacturing and testing of our hardware products, utilizing proper development, testing, and scanning of our software solutions (including SaaS), attempting to negotiate warranty disclaimers and liability limitation clauses in our sales agreements, and maintaining customary insurance coverage. However, these measures may ultimately prove ineffective in limiting our liability for damages.
In addition to any monetary liability for the failure of our products, a publicly known defect or perceived defect in our products could lead to customers delaying or withholding payments, regulatory audits, diverting the attention of our key personnel, an adverse impact on the market’s perception of us and our products, and negative effects on our reputation and the demand for our products.
If we are unable to retain key employees and successfully hire and train qualified new employees, we may be unable to achieve our business objectives. In addition, we may experience negative effects from the significant workforce reductions we have completed over the past several years.
Our ability to successfully attain our business objectives will depend significantly on our ability to retain and motivate key employees and attract qualified new hires. In 2022, 2023 and 2024, we terminated the employment of approximately 330 employees as part of our cost reduction and restructuring efforts. These reductions may make it more difficult, more time-consuming and more expensive for us to retain key employees and attract new hires, both because our reputation in the hiring market may have been negatively affected by the reductions and because the remaining employees have had to assume additional work. We face intense competition for these employees from numerous technology, software and other companies, many of whom have greater resources than we do, and our employees are generally employed on an at-will basis, which means that they could terminate their employment with us at any time. The temporary or permanent loss of the services of our CEO, other members of senior management or other key employees for any reason could significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our objectives and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, the loss of key employees, particularly those in senior management roles, could be negatively perceived in the capital markets, which could reduce the market value of our securities.
Difficulties retaining, motivating and attracting qualified employees could have an adverse effect on our ability to achieve our business objectives and, as a result, our ability to compete could decrease and our financial results could be adversely affected. In addition, even if we are able to identify and recruit a sufficient number of new hires, these new hires will require significant training before they achieve full productivity, particularly in the case of sales employees.
In addition, while we believe the significant workforce reductions we completed in the past three years were necessary in order to position the company for profitable growth, it is possible that we could experience various negative effects from these reductions, including slower customer service response times and reduced ability to complete or undertake new product development projects and other business, product, technical, compliance or risk mitigation initiatives.
Our financial results may fluctuate from period to period, making it difficult to project future results. If we fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors, the price of our common stock could decline.
Our revenue and results of operations have historically varied from period to period, and we expect that they will continue to do so as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control, including:
•The size, timing, and payment terms of significant orders, and any unexpected delay or cancellation of such orders;
•The variability of revenue realized from individual customers, as their buying patterns can vary significantly from period to period and are affected by the individual solutions purchased and the structure of the contract;
14

•Larger customers delaying renewal of their subscriptions or failing to renew at all;
•Changes in customer budgets;
•The effectiveness of our sales and marketing programs, including our ability to hire, train and retain our sales personnel;
•Changes in pricing by competitors;
•New product announcements or introductions by competitors;
•Technological changes in the market for our products, including the adoption of new technologies and standards;
•Our ability to develop, introduce and market new products and product enhancements on a timely basis;
•Market and customer acceptance of any new products and product enhancements that we introduce;
•With respect to our Digipass business, component costs and availability;
•Network outages, security breaches, technical difficulties or interruptions affecting our products;
•Seasonality in our business;
•Changes in foreign currency exchange rates;
•General economic and political conditions, as well as economic conditions specifically affecting industries in which our customers operate; and
•Other events or factors, including those resulting from pandemics, war, natural disasters, incidents of terrorism or responses to these events.
Any one of these or other factors discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, or the cumulative effect of a combination of these factors, may result in fluctuations in our financial results, which may cause us to miss our guidance and analyst expectations and cause the price of our common stock to decline.
We have operated at a loss for two of the past three fiscal years, and we may not be profitable in the future.
Over our approximately 30-year operating history, we have operated at a loss for many of those years, including for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, for which we reported a net loss of $29.8 million and $14.4 million, respectively. Although we were profitable in 2024, we may not be able to maintain or increase our level of profitability. We intend to continue to incur significant expenses to maintain, develop and enhance our products and solutions, improve our infrastructure and technology, and grow our customer base. These efforts may be costlier than we expect, and we may not be able to increase our revenue enough to offset our increased operating expenses. We may incur significant losses in the future for a number of reasons, including the other risks described herein, and experience unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications and delays and other unknown events. If we are unable to achieve and sustain profitability, the value of our business and common stock may significantly decrease.
We depend on third-party hosting providers and other technology vendors, as well as our own infrastructure, to provide our products and solutions to our customers in a timely manner. Interruptions or delays in performance of our products and solutions could result in customer dissatisfaction, damage to our reputation, loss of customers, and reduction in revenue.
We outsource portions of our cloud infrastructure to third-party hosting providers, principally Amazon Web Services, ("AWS"). We also outsource components of our services to third-party technology vendors who host their products in the cloud. Customers of our products need to be able to access our platform at any time, without interruption or degradation of performance. AWS and other third-party hosting providers run their own platforms that we access, and we are therefore vulnerable to service interruptions on these third-party platforms, as well as to service interruptions affecting our own infrastructure and our third-party technology vendors. We have experienced interruptions, delays and outages in service and availability from time to time due to a variety of factors impacting our third-party hosting providers, our own infrastructure or other vendors, and we expect to experience these types of incidents in the future.
If our products or platform are unavailable or our users are otherwise unable to use our products within a reasonable amount of time or at all, then our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. In some instances, we may not be able to identify the cause or causes of these performance problems within a period of time acceptable to our customers. It may become increasingly difficult to maintain and improve our platform performance, especially during peak usage times, as our products become more complex and the usage of our products increases. We have in the past and may in the future experience capacity constraints that affect our product performance and cause us to miss our service level agreements with our customers. These capacity constraints can be due to a number of causes, including technical failures, natural disasters, fraud or security attacks. To the extent that we do not effectively address capacity constraints, either through our own infrastructure, our current third-party providers or alternative providers of cloud infrastructure, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected. In
15

addition, any changes in service levels from our third-party hosting providers or other cloud-based technology vendors may adversely affect our ability to meet our customers' requirements.
Our third-party hosting providers have no obligations to renew their agreements with us on commercially reasonable terms or at all, and the agreements governing these relationships can generally be terminated by either party with limited notice. Access to hosting services may also be restricted by the provider at any time, with no or limited notice. Although we expect that we could receive similar services from other third parties, if any of our arrangements with AWS or other third-party hosting providers are terminated, we could experience interruptions on our platform and in our ability to make our platform available to customers, as well as downtime, delays and additional expenses in arranging alternative cloud infrastructure services.
It is also possible that our customers and potential customers would hold us accountable for any breach of security affecting infrastructure of our third-party hosting providers. We may incur significant liability from those customers and from third parties with respect to any such breach, and we may not be able to recover a material portion of our liabilities to our customers and third parties from our hosting providers in the event of any breach affecting their systems.
Any of the above circumstances or events may harm our reputation, cause customers to stop using our products, impair our ability to increase revenue from existing customers, impair our ability to grow our customer base, subject us to financial penalties and liabilities under our service level agreements and otherwise harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our success depends in part on establishing and maintaining relationships with other companies to distribute our technology and products or to incorporate their technology into our products and services, or vice versa.
Part of our business strategy is to enter into partnerships and other cooperative arrangements with third parties. We are regularly involved in cooperative efforts with respect to the incorporation of our products into products of others and vice versa, research and development efforts, and marketing, distributor and reseller arrangements. These relationships are generally non-exclusive, and some of our partners also have cooperative relationships with certain of our competitors or offer some products and services that are competitive with ours. If we lose third-party relationships, if these relationships are not commercially successful, or if we are unable to enter into third-party relationships on commercially reasonable terms in the future, our business could be negatively impacted.
SaaS offerings, which involve various risks, constitute an important part of our business.
We expect that our SaaS offerings will constitute an increasingly important part of our business. As a result, we will need to continue to evolve our processes to meet a number of regulatory, intellectual property, contractual, service, and security compliance challenges. These challenges include: compliance with licenses for open-source and third-party software embedded in our SaaS offerings; maintaining compliance with global export control, privacy, data security, and resiliency regulations (including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA"), the EU General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), and the EU Digital Operational Resilience Act ("DORA")); supporting contractual requirements that our customers impose on us due to their own legal obligations, such as compliance with DORA; protecting our products from external threats; maintaining continuous service levels and data security practices expected by our customers; and preventing inappropriate use of our products. In addition to using our internal resources, we also utilize third-party resources to deliver SaaS offerings, such as third-party data hosting vendors. The failure of a third-party provider to prevent service disruptions, data losses or security breaches may require us to issue credits or refunds or to indemnify or otherwise be liable to customers or third parties for damages that may occur. Additionally, if these third-party providers fail to deliver on their obligations, our reputation could be damaged, and our customers could lose confidence in us and our ability to maintain and expand our SaaS offerings. Finally, our SaaS offerings must be designed to operate at significant transaction volumes. When combined with third-party software and hosting infrastructure, our SaaS offerings may not perform as designed, which could lead to service disruptions and associated damages.
Failure to maintain high-quality customer support could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our business relies on our customers’ satisfaction with the technical and customer support and professional services we provide to support our products. If we fail to provide customer and technical support services that are high-quality, responsive, and able to promptly resolve issues that our customers encounter with our products and services, then they may elect not to purchase or renew subscription licenses or may otherwise reduce or discontinue their business
16

relationship with us. Maintaining high-quality customer support can be costly, and it is possible that we will need to rely more heavily on online self-help tools or AI technology in order to meet our profitability objectives. These types of changes could result in difficulties maintaining the service levels our customers expect. This could result in loss of revenue and damage to our reputation, which could have an adverse effect on our business.
Failure to effectively manage our product and service lifecycles could harm our business.
As part of the natural lifecycle of our products and services, we periodically inform customers that products or services have reached their end of life or end of availability and will no longer be supported or receive updates and security patches. Failure to effectively manage our product and service lifecycles could lead to customer dissatisfaction and contractual liabilities, which could adversely affect our business and operating results. In addition, the failure to generate new revenue to replace and/or expand the revenue realized from discontinued products or services could adversely affect our business and operating results.
We are subject to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Because a significant number of our principal customers are located outside the United States, we expect that international sales will continue to generate a significant portion of our total revenue. We are subject to foreign exchange fluctuations and risks because the majority of our product costs are denominated in U.S. dollars, whereas a significant portion of the sales and expenses of our foreign operating subsidiaries are denominated in various foreign currencies. A decrease in the value of any of these foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar could adversely affect our revenue and profitability in U.S. dollars of our products sold in these markets. Furthermore, a strengthening of the U.S. dollar could increase the cost in local currency of our products and services to customers outside the United States, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
The exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies has fluctuated in recent years and may fluctuate substantially in the future. For example, the U.S. dollar’s strength against foreign currencies, particularly the Euro, during 2022 had a significant impact on our 2022 financial results. Although foreign exchange impact was not significant to our 2023 and 2024 results, it could adversely affect our results for 2025 and beyond. We do not currently use forward contracts or other hedging strategies such as options or foreign exchange swaps to mitigate our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations.
Consolidations, failures and other developments in the banking and financial services industry may adversely impact our revenue.
Mergers, acquisitions, and personnel changes at key banks and financial services organizations have the potential to adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations. A majority of our revenue is derived from customers in the banking and financial services industry, making us susceptible to consolidation in, or contraction of, the number of participating institutions within that industry. In addition, other factors affecting the banking and financial services industry, such as economic and credit conditions or additional regulations, may create uncertainty or financial pressures that cause our customers or potential customers to adopt cost reduction measures or reduce capital spending, resulting in longer sales cycles, deferrals or delays in purchases of our products, delays in paying our accounts receivable, and increased price competition, any of which could negatively impact our revenue. Furthermore, if customers respond to a negative or unpredictable economic climate by consolidating with other banks or financial institutions, it could reduce the number of our current and/or potential customers.
We face a number of risks associated with our international operations, any or all of which could result in a disruption in our business and a decrease in our revenue.
In 2024, approximately 83% of our revenue and approximately 59% of our operating expenses were generated/incurred outside of the U.S. In 2023, approximately 83% of our revenue and approximately 58% of our operating expenses were generated/incurred outside of the U.S. In 2022, approximately 83% of our revenue and approximately 66% of our operating expenses were generated/incurred outside of the U.S. A severe economic decline in any of our major foreign markets could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
17

In addition to exposures to changes in the economic conditions of our major foreign markets, we are subject to a number of risks related to our international operations, any or all of which could result in a disruption in our business and a decrease in our revenue. These include:
•increased management, infrastructure and legal costs associated with having international operations;
•costs of compliance with foreign legal and regulatory requirements, including, but not limited to data privacy, data protection and data security regulations and sustainability reporting requirements and the risks and costs of non-compliance;
•costs of compliance with U.S. laws and regulations for foreign operations, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"), import and export control laws, tariffs, trade barriers, economic sanctions and other regulatory or contractual limitations on our ability to sell or provide our solutions in certain foreign markets, and the risks and costs of non-compliance;
•heightened risks of unfair or corrupt business practices in certain geographies and of improper or fraudulent sales arrangements that may impact financial results and result in restatements of, and irregularities in, financial statements;
•costs of compliance with multiple and possibly overlapping tax structures, and related potential adverse tax impacts;
•risks of reliance on channel partners for sales in some countries;
•differing technology standards in certain international markets;
•the uncertainty and limitation of protection for intellectual property rights in some countries;
•greater difficulty in enforcing contracts, accounts receivable collection and longer collection periods;
•difficulties and costs of staffing and managing international operations, including maintaining internal controls and challenges in closing or restructuring such operations;
•difficulty in providing support and training to customers in certain international locations;
•management communication and integration problems resulting from cultural and linguistic differences and geographic dispersion;
•foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations;
•adverse tax burdens and foreign exchange controls that could make it difficult to repatriate earnings and cash;
•increased exposure to climate change, natural disasters, armed conflict, terrorism, epidemics, or pandemics and other health crises; and
•economic or political instability in foreign markets, including instability related to the impact of geopolitical tensions between China and the U.S. over Taiwan, Hong Kong, and tariffs and trade, particularly if the current U.S. presidential administration continues or expands tariffs on Chinese or other imports into the U.S.
Our business, including the sales of our products and professional services by us and our channel partners, may be subject to foreign governmental regulations, which vary substantially from country to country and change from time to time. Our failure, or the failure by our channel partners, to comply with these regulations could adversely affect our business. Further, in some foreign countries, it may be more common for others to engage in business practices that are prohibited by our internal policies and procedures or U.S. regulations applicable to us. Violations of laws or internal policies by our employees, contractors, channel partners or agents could result in delays in revenue recognition, financial reporting misstatements, fines, penalties or the prohibition of the importation or exportation of our products and could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. If we are unable to successfully manage the challenges of international expansion and operations, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.
If our goodwill or intangible assets become impaired, we may be required to record a significant charge to earnings.
We review our goodwill and intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Goodwill is required to be tested for impairment at least annually. At December 31, 2024, we had goodwill and intangible assets with a net book value of $99.8 million primarily related to our acquisitions. An adverse change in market conditions, particularly if such change has the effect of changing one of our critical assumptions or estimates, could result in a change to the estimation of fair value that could result in an impairment charge to our goodwill or intangible assets.
The revenue recognition treatment of SaaS subscriptions and term subscription licenses for on-premises software may make it more challenging to accurately assess our operating results and the condition of our business.
Approximately 57% of our total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 was attributable to our SaaS and on-premises term subscription contracts, and the revenue recognition treatment of both of these types of contracts under
18

applicable accounting rules may make it more difficult for investors to accurately assess our operating results and the condition of our business.
We recognize SaaS subscription revenue ratably over the term of each of our contracts, which are typically one year in length but may be up to three years or longer. As a result, much of our SaaS revenue in a particular quarter is generated from the recognition of revenue from SaaS contracts we entered during previous periods, which can make it more challenging to assess the current state of our business. For instance, a shortfall in demand for our SaaS solutions or a decline in new or renewed SaaS contracts in any one quarter may not significantly reduce our revenue for that quarter (and may therefore not be apparent from our financial statements for that quarter), but could negatively affect our revenue in future quarters. In addition, the SaaS-based model of our Digital Agreements business unit makes it difficult for us to rapidly increase our Digital Agreements revenue through additional sales contracts in any period, since revenue from new customers is recognized over the applicable term of their contracts.
We recognize revenue from on-premises term subscription contracts upon delivery of the software to the customer, which is the latter of when the customer receives the ability to access the software or when they are legally allowed to use the software. Maintenance revenue associated with these contracts is recognized ratably over the term of their agreements, which typically range from one to five years in length. Although on-premises subscription contracts may have a term of up to five years, we generally recognize most of the revenue (the revenue associated with the license component of the contract) soon after the contract becomes effective. This can result in uneven revenue from quarter to quarter depending upon the number and timing of term licenses we sign, and results in a particular quarter provide minimal visibility into our performance in future periods.
In addition, our sales arrangements often include multiple elements, including hardware, services, software, maintenance and support, which complicates their treatment under the accounting rules and can result in further variations in the timing of revenue recognition. In addition, if applicable accounting standards or practices change, or if the judgments or estimates we use when applying existing standards prove to be incorrect, our financial results may be adversely affected.
We could be subject to additional tax liabilities, and our ability to use our net operating losses may be limited.
We are subject to U.S. federal, state, local and sales taxes in the United States and foreign income taxes, withholding taxes and transaction taxes in numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in evaluating our tax positions and our worldwide provision for taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many activities and transactions for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain and the relevant taxing authorities may disagree with our determinations as to the income and expenses attributable to specific jurisdictions. In addition, our tax obligations and effective tax rates could be adversely affected by changes in the relevant tax, accounting and other laws, regulations, principles and interpretations by recognizing tax losses or lower than anticipated earnings in jurisdictions where we have lower statutory rates and higher than anticipated earnings in jurisdictions where we have higher statutory rates, by changes to our operating structure (including a currently in-process revenue of our intellectual property structure), by changes in foreign currency exchange rates, or by changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. We may be audited in various jurisdictions, and such jurisdictions may assess additional taxes, sales taxes and value-added taxes against us. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable, the final determination of any tax audits or litigation could be materially different from our historical tax provisions and accruals, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results or cash flows in the period for which a determination is made.
At December 31, 2024 we had U.S. federal, state, and foreign net operating losses ("NOLs"), of $22.7 million, $44.1 million, and $117.0 million, respectively, available to offset future taxable income, some of which begin to expire in 2025. Federal NOLs incurred in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 can be carried forward indefinitely, but the deductibility of federal NOLs in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2021 is subject to certain limitations. A lack of future taxable income would adversely affect our ability to utilize these NOLs before they expire.
In addition, under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Internal Revenue Code"), substantial changes in our ownership may limit the amount of pre-change NOLs that can be utilized annually in the future to offset taxable income. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code imposes limitations on a company’s ability to use its NOLs if one or more stockholders or groups of stockholders that own at least 5% of the company’s stock increase their ownership by more than 50 percentage points over their lowest ownership percentage within a rolling three-year period. Similar rules may apply under state tax laws. Based upon an analysis as of December 31, 2024, we determined that we do not expect these limitations to materially impair our ability to use our NOLs prior to expiration. However, if changes in our ownership occurred after such date, or occur in the future, our ability to use our NOLs may be further limited. Subsequent statutory or regulatory changes in respect of the utilization of NOLs for federal or state purposes, such as suspensions on the use of NOLs or limitations on the deductibility of NOLs carried forward, or other unforeseen reasons,
19

may result in our existing NOLs expiring or otherwise being unavailable to offset future income tax liabilities. For these reasons, we may not be able to utilize a material portion of the NOLs, even if we achieve profitability.
Acquisitions or other strategic transactions may not achieve the intended benefits or may disrupt our current plans and operations.
To remain competitive, we have in the past and may in the future seek to acquire additional businesses, products or technologies or to make investments in, or enter into joint ventures or similar transactions with, third parties. These transactions involve numerous risks, including the following:
•Difficulties or delays in integrating the acquired businesses, which could prevent us from realizing the anticipated benefits of acquisitions;
•Delays or reductions in customer purchases for both us and the company we acquired due to customer uncertainty about continuity and effectiveness of service from either company;
•Challenges in successfully cross-selling acquired products to our existing customer base, or in cross-selling our products to the acquired company’s customer base;
•Difficulties in supporting and migrating acquired customers, if any, to our platforms, which could cause customer churn, unanticipated costs, and damage to our reputation;
•Disruption of our ongoing business and diversion of management and other resources from existing operations;
•Constraints on our liquidity in the event that we use cash or incur debt to fund an acquisition, or dilution to existing stockholders in the event we issue equity securities as part of the consideration for the acquisition;
•Our use of cash to pay for acquisitions would limit other potential uses for our cash and affect our liquidity;
•Assumption of debt or other actual or contingent liabilities of the acquired company, including litigation risk;
•Differences in corporate culture, compliance protocols, and risk management practices between us and acquired companies;
•Potential loss of the key employees of an acquired business;
•Potential loss of the customers or partners of an acquired business due to the actual or perceived impact of the acquisition;
•Difficulties associated with governance, management, and control matters in majority or minority investments or joint ventures;
•Unforeseen or undisclosed liabilities or challenges associated with the companies, businesses, or technologies we acquire;
•Adverse tax consequences, including exposure of our entire business to taxation in additional jurisdictions; and
•Accounting effects, including potential impairment charges and requirements that we record acquired deferred revenue at fair value.
Any of these risks could result in acquisitions or other strategic transactions disrupting our business and/or failing to achieve their intended objectives.
We also review our product portfolio from time to time for contributions to our objectives and alignment with our strategy, and we may pursue divestiture activities as a result of these reviews. However, we may not be successful in separating any underperforming or non-strategic assets, and gains or losses on any divestiture of, or lost operating income from, such assets may adversely affect our results of operations. Divestitures could also expose us to unanticipated liabilities or result in ongoing obligations, including transition service obligations and indemnity obligations.
Provisions in various agreements potentially expose us to substantial liability for intellectual property infringement and other losses.
Our agreements with customers, solution partners and channel partners generally include provisions under which we agree to indemnify them for losses suffered or incurred as a result of claims of intellectual property infringement and, in some cases, for damages caused by us to property or persons or for other damages. In the past, we worked with a customer at our expense to resolve a claim brought against the customer related to our technology, and it is likely that we will need to indemnify our customers for similar claims in the future. The expense of defending these types of claims may adversely affect our financial results and may not be covered by any insurance policies we maintain. In addition, any such disputes and litigation could divert management attention and harm our reputation in the market.
We also make certain representations and warranties and incur obligations under our contracts in the ordinary course of business, including for items related to data security and potential data privacy breaches. Although we normally contractually limit our liability with respect to such representations, warranties and other contractual obligations, we may
20

still incur substantial liability related to them. Not all of our potential losses under our contracts are covered by insurance policies, which could increase the impact of any such loss should it occur. Large indemnity payments or damages resulting from our contractual obligations could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.
Any failure to protect our proprietary technology and intellectual property rights could substantially harm our business and operating results.
Our success is dependent, in part, upon protecting our proprietary technology. We rely on a combination of patents, copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade secret laws and contractual provisions in an effort to establish and protect our proprietary rights. However, the steps we take to protect our intellectual property may be inadequate. While we have been issued patents in the U.S. and other countries and have additional patent applications pending, we may be unable to obtain patent protection for the technology covered in our patent applications. In addition, any patents issued in the future may not provide us with competitive advantages or may be successfully challenged by third parties. Any of our patents, trademarks or other intellectual property rights may be challenged or circumvented by others or invalidated through administrative process or litigation. There can be no guarantee that others will not independently develop similar products, duplicate any of our products or design around our patents. Furthermore, legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of intellectual property rights are uncertain. Despite our precautions, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy our products and use information that we regard as proprietary to create products and solutions that compete with ours. Some license provisions protecting against unauthorized use, copying, transfer and disclosure of our products may be unenforceable under the laws of jurisdictions outside the U.S. To the extent we expand our international activities, our exposure to unauthorized copying and use of our products and proprietary information may increase.
We enter into confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with our employees and consultants and enter into confidentiality agreements with parties with whom we have strategic relationships and business alliances. These agreements may not be effective in controlling access to and distribution of our products and proprietary information. Further, these agreements do not prevent our competitors or partners from independently developing technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our products and solutions.
In order to protect our intellectual property rights, we may be required to spend significant resources to monitor and protect and enforce these rights, including through litigation. Litigation brought to protect and enforce our intellectual property rights could be costly, time-consuming and distracting to management and could result in the impairment or loss of portions of our intellectual property. Furthermore, our efforts to enforce our intellectual property rights may be met with defenses, counterclaims and countersuits attacking the validity and enforceability of our intellectual property rights. Our inability to protect our proprietary technology against unauthorized copying or use, as well as any costly litigation or diversion of our management’s attention and resources, could delay further sales or the implementation of our products and solutions, impair the functionality of our products and solutions, delay introductions of new solutions, result in our substituting inferior or more costly technologies into our products and solutions or injure our reputation. We will not be able to protect our intellectual property if we are unable to enforce our rights or if we do not detect unauthorized use of our intellectual property. Moreover, policing unauthorized use of our technologies, trade secrets and intellectual property may be difficult, expensive and time-consuming, particularly in foreign countries where the laws may not be as protective of intellectual property rights as those in the U.S. and where mechanisms for enforcement of intellectual property rights may be weak. If we fail to adequately protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.
We may be subject to legal proceedings and/or liability for a variety of claims, including intellectual property disputes, labor and employment issues, commercial disagreements, securities law violations and other matters. These proceedings may be costly, subject us to significant liability, limit our ability to use certain technologies, increase our costs of doing business or otherwise adversely affect our business and operating results.
From time to time, we are involved as a party or an indemnitor in disputes or regulatory inquiries. These may include alleged claims, lawsuits and proceedings regarding intellectual property disputes, labor and employment issues, commercial disagreements, securities law violations and other matters. In particular, companies in the software industry are often required to defend against litigation or claims based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. In certain instances, we have received claims that we have infringed the intellectual property rights of others, including claims regarding patents, copyrights, and trademarks. Because of constant technological change in the markets in which we compete, the extensive patent coverage of existing technologies, and the rapid rate of issuance of new patents, it is possible that the number of these claims may grow. Such claims sometimes involve patent holding companies
21

or other adverse patent owners that have no relevant product revenue and against which our own patents may therefore provide little or no deterrence. In addition, former employers of our former, current, or future employees may assert claims that such employees have improperly disclosed to us the confidential or proprietary information of these former employers. If we are not successful in defending such claims, we could be required to stop selling our products, delay shipments, redesign our products, pay monetary amounts as damages, enter into royalty or licensing arrangements (which may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms), or satisfy indemnification obligations to our customers, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Regardless of the merits or ultimate outcome of any claims that have been or may be brought against us or that we may bring against others, lawsuits are time-consuming and expensive to resolve, divert management’s time and attention, and could harm our reputation. Although we carry general liability and other forms of insurance, our insurance may not cover potential claims that arise or may not be adequate to indemnify us for all liability that may be imposed. We may also determine that the most cost-effective way to resolve a dispute is to enter into a settlement agreement. Litigation is inherently unpredictable and we cannot predict the timing, nature, controversy or outcome of lawsuits, and it is possible that litigation could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition.
We use open-source software in our products, which could subject us to litigation or other actions.
We use open-source software in our products and solutions. Any use of open-source software may expose us to greater risks than the use of commercial software because open-source licensors generally do not provide warranties or controls on the functionality or origin of the software. Any use of open-source software may involve security risks, making it easier for hackers and other third parties to determine how to compromise our platform. From time to time, there have been claims challenging the ownership of open-source software against companies that incorporate open-source software into their products. As a result, we could be subject to lawsuits by parties claiming ownership of what we believe to be open-source software. Litigation could be costly for us to defend, have a negative effect on our operating results and financial condition or require us to devote additional research and development resources to change our products. In addition, if we were to combine our proprietary software products with open-source software in a certain manner, we could, under certain of the open-source licenses, be required to release the source code of our proprietary software products. If we inappropriately use or incorporate open-source software subject to certain types of open-source licenses that challenge the proprietary nature of our software products, we may be required to re-engineer our products, discontinue the sale of our products and solutions or take other remedial actions.
There is significant government regulation of technology imports and exports. If we cannot meet the requirements of applicable regulations, we may be prohibited from exporting some of our products, which could negatively impact our revenue.
Our international sales and operations are subject to risks such as the imposition of government controls, new or changed export license requirements, restrictions on the export of critical technology, trade restrictions and changes in tariffs. If we are unable to obtain regulatory approvals on a timely basis, our business may be impacted. Certain of our products are subject to export controls under U.S. law including the U.S. Export Administration Regulations, U.S. Customs regulations, and various economic and trade sanctions administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. The list of products and countries for which export approval is required, and the regulatory policies with respect thereto, may be revised from time to time and our inability to obtain required approvals under these regulations could materially and adversely affect our ability to make international sales. Additionally, we may be negatively affected if our third-party technology partners fail to obtain proper licenses and permits for the import and export of their products. We maintain trade control compliance requirements for our partners; however, we cannot guarantee that our partners will comply with these requirements. Violations of export control and international trade laws could result in penalties, fines, adverse reputational consequences, and other materially adverse consequences. In the past, we voluntarily disclosed a trade control matter to the U.S. government. Although this matter was closed during 2019 with no fines, penalties, or finding of wrongdoing, similar issues could arise in the future. In addition, future changes in government regulation of technology imports and exports, including tariffs and other protective measures that have been or may be imposed by the current U.S. presidential administration, could negatively affect our business.
We employ cryptographic technology in our authentication products. If the codes used in our cryptographic technology are eventually broken or become subject to additional government regulation, our technology and products may become less effective, which would have a material adverse effect on our business.
22

A portion of our products are based on cryptographic technology. With cryptographic technology, a user is given a key that is required to encrypt and decode messages. The security afforded by this technology depends on the integrity of a user’s key and in part on the application of algorithms, which are advanced mathematical factoring equations. These codes may eventually be broken or become subject to government regulation regarding their use, which would render our technology and products less effective. The occurrence of any one of the following could result in a decline in demand for our technology and products, which would have a material adverse effect on our business:
•Any significant advance in techniques for attacking cryptographic systems, including the development of an easy factoring method or faster, more powerful computers, such as quantum computing;
•Publicity of the successful decoding of cryptographic messages or the misappropriation of keys; and
•Increased government regulation limiting the use, scope or strength of cryptography.
International and domestic privacy and data protection laws and regulations could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations.
The regulatory framework for the collection, use, access, sharing, transfer and other processing of information worldwide is rapidly evolving and is likely to remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. Globally, virtually every jurisdiction in which we operate has established its own data security and privacy frameworks with which we must comply. We collect, transmit, store, and otherwise process (on our systems and on our third-party partners’ systems) our customers’ and our employees’ data that includes personal data subject to these international and domestic privacy and data protection laws and regulations. For example, in the European Union, we are required to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation, (EU) 2016/679 as well as supplementary laws implemented by EU member states of the European Economic Area (“EEA”) (collectively, “GDPR”). The GDPR is wide-ranging in scope and imposes numerous requirements on companies that process personal data, including requirements relating to processing biometric and other sensitive data, obtaining consent of the individuals to whom the personal data relates, providing information to individuals regarding data processing activities, implementing safeguards to protect the security and confidentiality of personal data, providing notification of data breaches, and taking certain measures when engaging third-party processors. The GDPR also imposes strict rules on the transfer of personal data from the EEA to other countries that are not viewed as providing an adequate level of data protection. In addition, the GDPR permits data protection authorities to require destruction of improperly gathered or used personal information and/or impose substantial fines for violations of the GDPR, which can be up to four percent of global revenues or 20 million Euros, whichever is greater, and it also confers a private right of action on data subjects and consumer associations to lodge complaints with supervisory authorities, seek judicial remedies, and obtain compensation for damages resulting from violations of the GDPR. We continue to adapt our compliance with GDPR using standard contractual clauses and other methods; however, it is difficult to be certain that compliance has been achieved. We have expended significant resources to comply, but those methods may be subject to scrutiny by data protection authorities in EEA member states.
There are ongoing concerns about the ability of companies to transfer personal data from the EEA to other countries. In October 2022, President Biden signed an executive order to implement the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (“DPF”). The European Commission adopted an adequacy decision to permit data transfers from the EEA to the United States going forward. This development permits data transfers at this point under this framework and more broadly has made international data transfers more straightforward, but these provisions are being challenged in court. The new U.S. presidential administration may also impact whether the DPF remains an adequate data transfer framework. The continuing uncertainty around this issue may further impact our business operations in the EEA.
Beyond the GDPR, there are privacy and data security laws in a growing number of countries around the world. For example, other jurisdictions such as Brazil, Canada, and the United Kingdom have enacted privacy and data protection laws and regulations that impose similar restrictions and obligations on products and services we sell and that otherwise may impact our ability to conduct our business activities.
In the United States, the federal and state governments have also enacted privacy and data protection laws and regulations that impact us, our customers, and partners. At the federal level, we could potentially be subject to privacy enforcement from the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”), which has been particularly focused on the processing of biometric and other sensitive data through its recent enforcement actions. The FTC’s enforcement priorities (as well as those of other federal regulators) may be impacted by the change in administration and new leadership. These shifts in enforcement priorities may also impact our business. At the state level, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”)—which went into effect on January 1, 2020—is creating similar risks and obligations as those created by GDPR. The CCPA also has been amended through a recent referendum in California that creates additional obligations beginning in 2023.
23

The California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (“CPRA”) also created a new enforcement agency – the California Privacy Protection Agency – whose sole responsibility is to enforce the CPRA, which will further increase compliance risks. In addition, more than 18 other states already have passed comprehensive privacy laws. States are also passing laws regulating specific categories of information that may impact our business. For example, the State of Washington passed the My Health My Data Act in 2023, which specifically regulates health information, including biometric data, that is not otherwise regulated by the HIPAA rules and includes a private right action. A broad range of legislative measures also have been introduced at the federal level. Accordingly, failure to comply with federal and state laws (both those currently in effect and future legislation) regarding privacy and security of personal information could expose us to fines and penalties under such laws. There also is the threat of consumer class actions related to these laws and the overall protection of personal data. Even if we are not determined to have violated these laws, government investigations into these issues typically require the expenditure of significant resources and generate negative publicity, which could harm our reputation and our business.
In addition, several jurisdictions have imposed legal and compliance requirements on biometric data that are more stringent than requirements on other classifications of personal data. For example, in the U.S., the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (“BIPA”) regulates the collection, use, safeguarding, and storage of biometric identifiers and information, requires informed consent before collection, imposes fines for non-compliance, and grants residents a private right of action over improper collection and mishandling of biometric data. The U.S. state comprehensive privacy laws generally treat biometric data as sensitive personal data, subject to heightened requirements around its processing. Similarly, Québec's Act respecting the protection of personal data in the private sector (“Law 25”, formerly known as “Bill 64”) introduces substantial changes to the privacy landscape in Quebec, enhancing protection for personal data and introducing new obligations for transparency and accountability in data processing activities, including those involving biometric data.
Our activities as a SaaS solution provider mainly involve the processing of personal data on behalf of our customers. Our operations as a processor of our customers’ data relate to collecting, transmitting, storing, and processing a wide array of data, including personal data and biometric information of individuals worldwide. This data is handled both on our systems and those of our third-party partners, making us subject to a complex web of regulations across various jurisdictions. Adapting to these requirements may entail significant operational changes, including revising data processing and storage practices, enhancing data security measures, ensuring transparent communication with data subjects about their rights and our data handling practices, and it may impact our business activities, including our relationships with business partners and the marketing and distribution of our products.
We work to comply with all applicable international and domestic privacy and data protection laws and regulations; however, these laws and regulations vary greatly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, change rapidly, and are subject to interpretation, all of which leads to uncertainty in their applicability. The costs of compliance with these laws and regulations that apply to us, and other burdens imposed by them, may limit our use of personal data and could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. Compliance may require that we implement new processes and policies or change our existing processes and policies or features of our systems, which may require substantial financial and other resources, and which otherwise may be difficult to undertake. Any failure or perceived failure by us (or our third-party partners) to comply with these privacy and data protection laws and regulations, our processes and policies, contractual provisions, or an actual, perceived or suspected data privacy or information security incident could result in serious consequences for us. These consequences may include enforcement actions, audits, investigations, prosecutions, fines, penalties, debarment, litigation, claims for damages by customers and other affected individuals, reputational loss, and financial and business losses.
We must comply with the requirements of being a public company, including developing and maintaining proper and effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. Any failure to comply with these requirements may adversely affect investor confidence in our company and, as a result, the value of our common stock.
As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of Nasdaq and other applicable securities rules and regulations that impose various requirements on public companies. Our management and other personnel devote a substantial amount of time to compliance with these requirements and such compliance requires significant ongoing legal, accounting and financial reporting costs.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and furnish a report by management on, among other things, the effectiveness of our
24

internal control over financial reporting on an annual basis. This assessment includes disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by our management in our internal control over financial reporting. We are also required to have our independent registered public accounting firm issue an opinion annually on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. During the evaluation and testing process, if we identify one or more material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we will be unable to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective.
We have identified a material weakness in the past and it is possible that other material weaknesses, or significant deficiencies, in our internal controls will be identified in the future. Failure to maintain effective controls or implement new or improved controls could result in significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, affect management evaluations and auditor attestations regarding the effectiveness of our internal controls, failure to meet periodic reporting obligations, and material misstatements in our financial statements. Any material misstatement of our financial statements may result in a restatement, loss of investor and customer confidence, a decline in the market price of our common stock, and potential sanctions or investigations by Nasdaq, the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Failure to remedy any material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, or to implement or maintain other effective control systems required of public companies, could also restrict our future access to the capital markets.
Our business in certain countries and transactions with foreign governments increase the risks associated with our international activities.
We are subject to anti-corruption laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including the FCPA, the U.K. Bribery Act, and other similar laws that prohibit improper payments or offers of payments to foreign governments and their officials and political parties by U.S. and other business entities for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. We have operations, deal with and make sales to governmental or quasi-governmental customers in countries known to experience corruption, particularly certain countries in the Middle East, Africa, Asia and South and Central America. Our activities in these countries create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by one of our employees, consultants, sales agents or channel partners that could be in violation of various laws, including the FCPA and the U.K. Bribery Act, even though these parties are not always subject to our control. While we have implemented policies and training that mandate compliance with these anti-corruption laws, we cannot guarantee that these policies and procedures will prevent reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees, consultants, sales agents or channel partners. Violations of these laws may result in materially significant diversion of management’s resources as well as significant investigation and outside counsel expense. Violations of these laws may also result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, including suspension or debarment from government contracting, and we may be subject to other liabilities which could disrupt our business and result in a materially adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We are subject to numerous laws, regulations and customer and product certification requirements governing the design, production, distribution, sale and use of our products. Any failure to comply with these laws, regulations and requirements could result in unanticipated costs and other negative impacts, and could have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We are subject to global legal, regulatory, and customer compliance requirements that span many different areas. For example, we are subject to the Directive on Measures for a High Common Level of Cybersecurity Across the Union (EU) 2022/2555 (known as NIS2), which introduces a common cybersecurity framework that imposes stringent security and cybersecurity incident reporting obligations on organizations operating in the European Union. Our ability to comply with these requirements, including enhanced reporting obligations, risk management process, and network security standards, may require additional investment in technology, personnel, and training. Non-compliance with NIS2 could result in significant penalties, legal liabilities, reputational damage, and operational disruptions.
In addition, as an information communication technology provider to financial entities in the European Union, we are affected by the Regulation on Digital Operational Resilience for the Financial Sector (EU) 2022/2554 (known as DORA). DORA imposes significant obligations on our financial entity customers to ensure their third-party technology vendors, such as OneSpan, protect against disruptions in their products or services that could affect important or critical financial services in the EU. In order to meet their own compliance obligations under DORA, our customers are imposing additional contractual requirements on OneSpan to ensure the security, continuity, and resilience of our products and services, increase oversight of our critical third-party service providers, and undergo additional audits, all of which may require significant investment in technology, personnel, and training. If we fail to meet DORA’s requirements, our financial entity customers could be negatively impacted, and we could incur liabilities, suspension or termination of our products and services, reputational damage, loss of competitive positioning, and potential loss of business. Furthermore,
25

evolving interpretations of DORA or additional regulatory updates could lead to unexpected compliance challenges and costs.
Our Digipass authenticator devices are subject to a variety of laws applicable to electronic devices, such as the EU Regulation on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), the EU Restriction on the Use of Hazardous Substances Directive (the RoHS Directive), the EU Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (the WEE Directive) and “conflict minerals” regulations that require us to perform supply chain due diligence to determine the sources and origin of certain minerals used in our devices. We expect to incur ongoing costs associated with complying with these requirements, and may be subject to reputational damage, fines, penalties or loss of customers if we fail to comply. These requirements may also affect pricing, sourcing and availability of materials used to produce our Digipass devices. Our products, including our Digipass authenticators, may also require various industry certifications, including certifications under the Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) and from industry standards organizations such as the FIDO Alliance. Failure to obtain these certifications in a timely manner could harm our business.
Efforts to manage and mitigate climate change, pollution, biodiversity loss, human rights violations in corporate supply chains, and other environmental and social impacts have produced significant regulatory and legislative efforts on a global basis, a trend we expect to continue. We anticipate that new laws and regulations in this area will result in added compliance requirements and increased costs for us and our suppliers, which could result in a significant negative impact on our ability to operate profitably. In particular, we expect to be subject to the EU Corporate Social Responsibility Directive and the EU Taxonomy Regulation beginning for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. We have incurred and believe we will need to continue to incur significant costs, including third-party audit costs, to comply with these requirements. We also expect to become subject to several complex and costly new EU sustainability laws over the next five years, including laws addressing sustainable product design and packaging. In addition, many of our customers are also subject to significant new environmental and climate-related regulations or stakeholder pressure, which may affect their purchasing decisions in ways unfavorable to us. For instance, customers who purchase our Digipass authenticator devices sometimes inquire about the environmental impact of the devices, and customers who are especially focused on carbon footprint or waste minimization may choose software-based authentication methods rather than physical authentication devices. Finally, disclosures we may be required to make with respect to climate change, pollution or other environmental or social impacts may damage our reputation and have an adverse impact on our business.
We sell products and services to U.S. federal, state and local governments as well as foreign government entities. Risks associated with selling our products and services to government entities include compliance with complex procurement regulations and government-specific contractual requirements that may vary from our standard terms and conditions, longer sales cycles that are not easy to predict, and varying government funding and budgeting processes. Selling to these entities is expensive and time-consuming and often requires significant up-front effort and expense. We have processes in place to aid in compliance with applicable government contracting requirements; however, it is difficult to be certain that compliance has been achieved. Non-compliance with government entity requirements may result in significant material risk to the Company including debarment, reputational loss, and financial and business losses.
New laws and regulations and changes to current laws and regulations are always possible and, in some cases they may be introduced with little or no time to bring related products into compliance. Furthermore, our products are used by customers to assist with achieving compliance with laws and regulations that apply to their industry. Our failure to comply with laws and regulations and to adapt to our customers’ needs may prevent us from selling our products in a certain country or to a particular customer. In addition, these laws, regulations, and requirements may increase our cost of supplying the products by forcing us to redesign existing products, change manufacturing practices, or to use more expensive designs or components. In these cases, we may experience unexpected disruptions in our ability to supply customers with products, or we may incur unexpected costs or operational complexities to bring products into compliance, and we may experience lowered customer demand. This could have an adverse effect on our revenues, gross profit margins and results of operations and increase the volatility of our financial results.
We may require additional capital to support our business objectives, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Our estimate as to how long we expect our cash and cash equivalents to be able to fund our operations is based on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Further, changing circumstances, some of which may be beyond our control, could cause us to consume capital significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need
26

to seek additional funds sooner than planned. We intend to continue to make investments to support our business objectives and may require additional funds to achieve our objectives and respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new features or enhance our products, improve our operating infrastructure or acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Accordingly, we may need to engage in equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock.
General economic conditions and geopolitical events have resulted in significant volatility in global financial markets in recent years. If this volatility persists or becomes more pronounced, we could experience an inability to access additional capital, which could in the future negatively affect our capacity for certain corporate development transactions or our ability to make other important, opportunistic investments. In addition, market volatility, high levels of inflation and interest rate fluctuations may increase our cost of financing or restrict our access to potential sources of future liquidity. Adequate additional financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business objectives and to respond to business challenges could be significantly impaired, and our business may be adversely affected.
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock
Our stock price has been and will likely continue to be volatile.
The market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially as a result of a variety of factors, including those described in this “Risk Factors” section, many of which are beyond our control and may not be related to our operating performance. Factors that could cause fluctuations in the market price of our common stock include the following:
•Actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly or annual operating results;
•Variance in our financial performance from our own financial guidance or from expectations of securities analysts;
•The trading volume of our common stock;
•Failure of securities analysts to maintain coverage of our company or changes in financial estimates by any securities analysts who follow our company;
•Changes in market valuations of other technology companies;
•Announcements by us or our competitors of significant technical innovations, contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
•Our involvement in any litigation or investigations by regulators;
•Our sale of our common stock or other securities in the future;
•Sales of large blocks of our common stock, including sales by our executive officers, directors and significant stockholders;
•Repurchases pursuant to Board-authorized share repurchase programs, or announcements of the inception or discontinuation of any such program;
•Increases or decreases in the dividend amount paid under our quarterly dividend program announced in December 2024, the modification or discontinuation of such program, or other changes in our capital allocation strategy;
•Mergers, acquisitions, or divestitures;
•Short sales, hedging and other derivative transactions involving our capital stock;
•Additions or departures of any of our key personnel;
•Changing legal or regulatory developments;
•The inclusion or exclusion of our stock in ETFs, indices and other benchmarks, and changes made to related methodologies;
•Reactions by investors to uncertainties in the world economy, the global geopolitical environment, and financial markets.
In recent years, the stock markets have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies due to, among other factors, the actions of market participants or other actions outside of our control, including market volatility caused by geopolitical events, and general economic developments. These fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. Broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political, regulatory and market conditions, may negatively impact the market price of our common stock. In the past, companies that have experienced
27

volatility in the market price of their securities have been subject to securities class action litigation. We have been the target of this type of litigation in the past, and may be targeted again the future, which could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention.
A small group of shareholders control a substantial amount of our common stock and could promote, delay or prevent a change of control.
A small number of shareholders control a significant amount of our outstanding common stock, as follows (based on the number of our shares of common stock o utstanding as of December 31, 2024 and the most recent Schedule 13G or Schedule 13G/A filing made by each of these parties): Blackrock, Inc. holds approximately 9.8% of our outstanding common stock; Vanguard Group Holdings holds approximately 9.2%; Legal & General Group Plc holds approximately 5.7%; and Global X Management CO LLC holds approximately 5.6%. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of a small number of investors promoting, discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control and may also have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.
Certain provisions of our charter and of Delaware law make a takeover of our Company more difficult.
Our corporate charter and Delaware law contain provisions, such as a class of authorized but unissued preferred stock which may be issued by our board of directors without stockholder approval that might enable our management to resist a takeover of our Company. Delaware law also limits business combinations with interested stockholders. These provisions might discourage, delay or prevent a change in control or a change in our management. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for stockholders to elect directors and take other corporate actions. The existence of these provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.
Future issuances of blank check preferred stock may reduce voting power of common stock and may have anti-takeover effects that could prevent a change in control.
Our corporate charter authorizes the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of preferred stock with such designations, rights, powers and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our Board of Directors, including such dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights, powers and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors without further stockholder approval.
The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. In addition, the authorized shares of preferred stock and common stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control.
Our business could be adversely affected as a result of actions of activist stockholders.
Although we strive to maintain constructive, ongoing communications with all of our stockholders, and welcome their views and opinions with the goal of enhancing value for all of our stockholders, our stockholders have in the past, and may from time to time in the future, engage in proxy solicitations, advance stockholder proposals or otherwise attempt to effect changes at or acquire control of the Company. Campaigns by stockholders to effect changes at publicly traded companies are sometimes led by investors seeking to increase short-term stockholder value through actions such as stock repurchases or sales of assets or the entire company. Responding to proxy contests and other actions by activist stockholders can be costly and time-consuming and could divert the attention of our Board of Directors and senior management from the management of our operations and the pursuit of our business strategy. We cannot predict whether additional proxy contests or related matters will occur in the future and the time and cost associated with such matters.
Any perceived uncertainties as to our future direction and control, our ability to execute on our strategy or changes to the composition of our Board of Directors or senior management team arising from proposals by activist stockholders or a proxy contest could lead to the perception of a change in the direction of our business or instability that may be exploited by our competitors and/or other activist stockholders, result in the loss of customers or potential business opportunities, and make it more difficult to pursue our strategic initiatives or attract and retain qualified employees and business partners, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.
General Risks
28

Economic uncertainties or downturns could materially adversely affect our business.
Negative economic conditions, including conditions resulting from changes in foreign currency rates, changes in interest rates, gross domestic product growth, financial and credit market fluctuations, inflation, political turmoil, geopolitical tensions, tariffs, international trade disputes, natural catastrophes, regional and global conflicts, natural disasters, and terrorist attacks, could cause a decrease in business investments, including spending on information technology, and negatively affect the performance of our business. If global or regional economic and financial market conditions remain uncertain and/or weak for an extended period of time, any of the following factors, among others, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations:
•slower consumer or business spending may result in reduced demand for our products and services, reduced orders from customers, order cancellations, lower revenues, increased inventories, and lower gross margins;
•volatility in global markets, tariffs or international trade disputes, and fluctuations in exchange rates for foreign currencies could negatively impact our reported financial results and condition;
•volatility in the prices for materials and components we use in our Digipass products could have a material adverse effect on our costs, gross margins, and profitability;
•restructurings, reorganizations, consolidations and other corporate events could affect our customers’ budgets and buying cycles, particularly in the banking and financial services industry, where we have particular exposure due to the majority of our customers being banks and financial institutions;
•if our customers experience declining revenues, or experience difficulty obtaining financing in the capital and credit markets to purchase our products and services, this could result in reduced orders, longer sales cycles, order cancellations, inability of customers to timely meet their payment obligations to us, extended payment terms, higher accounts receivable, reduced cash flows, greater expense associated with collection efforts and increased bad debt expense;
•severe financial difficulty experienced by our customers (such as the mid-market bank failures that occurred in 2023) may cause them to become insolvent or cease business operations, which could reduce sales, cash collections and revenue streams; and
•any difficulty or inability on the part of manufacturers of our products or other participants in our supply chain in obtaining sufficient financing to purchase raw materials or to finance general working capital needs may result in delays or non-delivery of shipments of our products.
Furthermore, in an adverse economic environment there is a risk that customers may delay their orders until the economic conditions improve. If a significant number of orders are delayed for an indefinite period of time, our revenue and cash receipts may not be sufficient to meet the operating needs of the business. If this is the case, we may need to significantly reduce our workforce, sell certain of our assets, enter into strategic relationships or business combinations, discontinue some or all of our operations, or take other similar restructuring actions. While we expect that these actions would result in a reduction of recurring costs, they also may result in a reduction of recurring revenue and cash receipts. It is also likely that we would incur substantial non-recurring costs to implement one or more of these restructuring actions.
Catastrophic events may disrupt our business.
Our business operations are subject to interruption by natural disasters, including extreme weather related to the effects of climate change, and other catastrophic events such as fire, floods, power loss, telecommunications failure, cyberattack, war or terrorist attack, or epidemic or pandemic. To the extent such events impact our facilities or off-premises or third-party infrastructure, we may be unable to continue our operations and may endure system interruptions, reputational harm, delays in our software development, lengthy interruptions in our services, breaches of data security and loss of critical data, all of which could have an adverse effect on our future operating results.
Item 1B - Unresolved Staff Comments
None.
Item 1C - Cybersecurity
Risk Management and Strategy
As a cloud-based digital agreements and identity and authentication security solutions provider servicing customers in regulated industries, cybersecurity risk management is an important part of our identity. We maintain an enterprise cybersecurity risk management program designed to assess, identify, and manage material cybersecurity risks
29

within our corporate information security environment and the systems we develop and operate for the benefit of our customers. Our cybersecurity risk management program is based upon best practices and standards for cybersecurity and information technology, including the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”) Cybersecurity Framework (“CSF”) and the International Organization Standardization (“ISO”) 27001 Information Security Management System Requirements.
Policies and Training. We maintain security policies, standards, and processes that apply across our operations and that are approved by management, communicated to our personnel, and reviewed on an annual basis. We provide a global security awareness education program that includes mandatory security and privacy awareness training for all personnel, regular phishing identification exercises, focused training opportunities for particular roles, and incident response training for key individuals.
Risk Assessment and Safeguards. We conduct regular assessments of risks and vulnerabilities to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data in our systems, and we implement safeguards to reduce these risks and vulnerabilities to a reasonable and appropriate level. For internal information systems and assets, we conduct regular internal reviews, employ continuous security monitoring, and conduct periodic independent reviews of the key components of our security program. For customer-facing products and services, in addition to internal reviews and testing, we undergo external reviews and penetration testing using an independent third party provider. Our cloud platforms for SaaS solutions are audited annually by external independent auditors who review our platforms against the Service Organization Controls (“SOC”) 2 and ISO 27001, 27017 and 27018 standards, and some of our Digital Agreement products are available on a FedRAMP compliant platform. Some of our products are certified under specific technical standards or industry guidelines, such as FIPS 140-2 and FIDO. Our Digipass authentication fulfillment services are also audited annually by external independent auditors against the SOC 2 standard. We conduct self-assessment activities for those standards or regulations that are not covered by the external auditors, such as the General Data Protection Regulation in Europe. Additionally, we periodically engage third party consultants to assist with identifying, assessing, and/or managing cybersecurity threats.
Incident Management. We have a documented incident response plan for identifying and responding to cybersecurity incidents that focuses on isolating, containing, mitigating, and eradicating the threat as quickly as possible. In the event of a cybersecurity incident, we will follow a documented incident escalation procedure. For a discussion of whether any cybersecurity risks have, or are likely to materially affect us, please see 1A, Risk Factors, for a discussion of identified cybersecurity risks.
Third Party Risk Management. Our vendor security risk management program covers vendors that require connectivity to our systems or access to confidential information. We utilize a trust intelligence platform for managing data privacy and data governance which includes third party risk management. Security reviews are performed periodically, based on vendor criticality, to identify potential security issues with the vendor systems or practices. New vendor contracts are reviewed by our legal and security teams, as appropriate, to confirm that security and data protection are appropriately addressed.
Material Cybersecurity Incidents. While we have experienced several security incidents in the past, we have not experienced any material cybersecurity incidents for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. We do not believe that there are currently any known risks from cybersecurity threats that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company or our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.
Governance
Our Board is primarily responsible for overseeing the assessment and management of our risk exposure, including the balance between risk and opportunity and the totality of risk exposure across the organization. The Audit Committee oversees the company’s cybersecurity risks and exposures. We operate our security program under a global Information Security Charter approved by the Audit Committee, and the Audit Committee receives security updates and information about cybersecurity risks from the Chief Information Officer ("CIO") and Chief Information Security Officer ("CISO") at least quarterly. Our Board generally reviews the company’s overall risk management program at least annually, including the corporate insurance program which includes our cybersecurity insurance policy. We maintain an Information Security Steering Committee which is composed of key senior leaders who oversee the corporate information security program and our cybersecurity posture. Cybersecurity threats with the possibility of heightened criticality are escalated to a management team comprised of C-level executives and legal department representatives.
The CIO leads our global information technology organization and has nearly 30 years of information technology leadership experience, including acting as CIO at two cloud-based technology providers. The Chief Technology Officer has over 20 years of experience leading product management, engineering, and operational teams at global organizations, including at a fraud management and information security company. The Senior Vice President of Research and Development has more than 25 years of information technology experience, including at another publicly traded
30

technology company. Our CISO reports to the CIO and is responsible for leading our information security organization and overseeing our information security program. The CISO has over 20 years experience in information technology and security, including serving as Chief Information Security Officer at another cloud-based technology provider. Team members who support our cybersecurity risk management program have relevant education and experience in the fields of cybersecurity, risk management, security architecture, data protection, application security, audit, compliance, incident response, identity governance and governance of enterprise information technology.

Business Segments
We report our financial results under the following two lines of business, which are our reportable operating segments: Security Solutions and Digital Agreements.
•Security Solutions. Security Solutions consists of our broad portfolio of software products, software development kits (SDKs), and Digipass authenticator devices that are used to build applications designed to defend against attacks on digital transactions across online environments, devices, and applications. The software products and SDKs included in the Security Solutions segment are on-premises and, to a lesser extent, cloud software products, and include multi-factor authentication and transaction signing solutions, such as mobile application security and mobile software tokens.
•Digital Agreements. Digital Agreements consists of solutions that enable our clients to secure and automate business processes associated with their digital agreement and customer transaction lifecycles that require consent, non-repudiation and compliance. These solutions, which are largely cloud-based, include OneSpan Sign e-signature, OneSpan Notary, and Identity Verification.

Business Developments
During 2022 and the first half of 2023, OneSpan was operating under a three-year strategic plan that focused on driving revenue growth in Digital Agreements. However, in mid-2023, we determined that we were unlikely to achieve the revenue growth levels set forth in that strategic plan within the contemplated three-year timeframe due to a number of factors, including increasing maturity and competitiveness in the market for e-signature solutions, limited awareness of our brand among buyers of e-signature tools, and higher pricing aggressiveness from competitors.
In response to these challenges, we modified our strategy to focus more heavily on improving profitability across the business. To this end, in August 2023, our Board approved the 2023 Actions (discussed below) to achieve higher levels of profitability while maintaining the Company's long-term growth potential. .
We now seek to drive profitable, efficient growth in both operating segments, with a particular emphasis on subscription revenue growth. Digital Agreements became profitable for the first time in the third quarter of 2024 and both operating segments were profitable for the full year 2024. Security Solutions and Digital Agreements subscription revenue grew 33% and 28% year-over-year in 2024, respectively.
Security Solutions total revenue decreased 1% in 2024, largely due to a reduction in hardware revenues driven by certain customers adopting a “mobile-first” approach, which prioritizes the mobile user experience over traditional desktop and hardware experiences, particularly for consumer banking. This approach has resulted in a reduction of Digipass hardware authenticator sales and an increase in sales of software authentication licenses delivered through software applications on mobile devices. As organizations embrace the convenience and accessibility of mobile technology, we expect to increase our focus on high-margin software solutions while continuing to invest in our hardware authentication solutions in order to meet diverse customer needs.
Digital Agreements total revenue increased 20% in 2024 and we substantially completed transitioning the segment to a SaaS revenue model.
Restructuring Plan
In December 2021, our Board approved a restructuring plan designed to advance our operating model, streamline our business, improve efficiency, and enhance our capital resources. The first phase of this restructuring plan began and was substantially completed during the three months ended March 31, 2022. In May 2022, our Board approved additional actions related to the restructuring plan through the year ending December 31, 2025. The additional actions consisted primarily of headcount-related reductions designed to continue to advance the same objectives as the first phase of the plan.
In August 3, 2023, our Board of Directors approved further cost reduction actions (the "2023 Actions"). In connection with the 2023 Actions, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur restructuring charges, most of which relate to employee transition and severance payments and employee benefit s, with a significantly smaller amount of charges relating to vendor contract termination and rationalization actions. We currently expect that we will incur restructuring charges of approximately $0.5 million to $1.0 million related to the 2023 Actions in periods after 2024, substantially all of which relate to employee transition and severance payments.
We plan to incrementally take actions under the restructuring plan until December 31, 2025, when the plan terminates. We completed substantially all of the workforce reductions planned as part of the 2023 Actions in 2023 and 2024. The vendor contract component of the 2023 Actions is planned for completion by the end of 2025.
As part of the restructuring plan (including the 2023 Actions), we reduced headcount by eliminating approximately 330 positions. We incurred severance and related benefits costs, recorded in “Restructuring and other related charges” in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022.
Recent Developments
On December 16, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend as part of the initiation of a recurring quarterly dividend program. The initial quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share was paid on February 14, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on January 31, 2025. The declaration and payment of future dividends is subject to the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.

Components of Operating Results
Revenue
We generate revenue from the sale of our subscriptions, maintenance and support, professional services, and Digipass hardware products. We believe comparison of revenues between periods is heavily influenced by the timing of orders and shipments reflecting the transactional nature of significant parts of our business.
•Product and license revenue. Product and license revenue includes Digipass hardware products and software licenses, which are provided on a perpetual or term basis subscription model.
•Service and other revenue. Service and other revenue includes solutions that are provided on a cloud-based subscription model, maintenance and support, and professional services.
Cost of Goods Sold
Our total cost of goods sold consists of cost of product and license revenue and cost of service and other revenue. We expect our cost of goods sold to increase in absolute dollars as our business grows, although it may fluctuate as a percentage of total revenue from period to period.
•Cost of product and license revenue. Cost of product and license revenue primarily consists of direct product and license costs, including personnel costs, production costs, freight, and inventory write-off adjustments for discontinued products and services.
•Cost of service and other revenue. Cost of service and other revenue primarily consists of costs related to cloud subscription solutions, including personnel and equipment costs, depreciation, amortization, and personnel costs of employees providing professional services and maintenance and support.
Gross Profit
Gross profit is revenue net of the cost of goods sold. Gross profit as a percentage of total revenue, or gross margin, has been and will continue to be affected by a variety of factors, including our average selling price, manufacturing costs, the mix of products sold, and the mix of revenue among products, subscriptions and services. We expect our gross margins to fluctuate over time depending on these factors.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses are generally based on anticipated revenue levels and fixed over short periods of time. As a result, small variations in revenue may cause significant variations in the period-to-period comparisons of operating income or operating income as a percentage of revenue.
Generally, the most significant factor driving our operating expenses is headcount. Direct compensation and benefit plan expenses generally represent between 50% and 60% of our operating expenses. In addition, a number of other expense categories are directly related to headcount. We attempt to manage our headcount within the context of the economic environments in which we operate, restructuring activities, and the investments we believe we need to make for our infrastructure to support future growth and for our products to remain competitive.
Historically, operating expenses have been impacted by changes in foreign exchange rates. We estimate the change in currency rates in 2024 compared to 2023 resulted in a decrease in operating expenses of less than $0.1 million in 2024.
The comparison of operating expenses can also be impacted significantly by costs related to our share-based and long-term incentive plans. In 2024, 2023, and 2022, operating expenses included $9.2 million, $14.6 million, and $8.8 million, respectively, of expenses related to share-based and long-term incentive plans. For the year ended December 31, 2024, stock-based compensation declined as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, which was largely due to the departure of our former CEO and forfeitures recorded upon his termination, timing of annual grants, and a lower level of employee equity awards granted in 2024 compared to 2023. However, this decline was partially offset by the awards granted to our current CEO when he accepted his permanent role of President and CEO in 2024. Long-term incentive plan compensation expense consists of share-based incentives and an immaterial amount of cash-based incentives.
35

•Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, commissions and bonuses, trade shows, marketing programs and other marketing activities, travel, outside consulting costs, and long-term incentive compensation. Our sales and marketing expenses may fluctuate as a percentage of total revenue.
•Research and development. Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs and long-term incentive compensation. Our research and development expenses may fluctuate as a percentage of total revenue.
•General and administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, legal, consulting and other professional fees, and long-term incentive compensation. Our general and administrative expenses may fluctuate as a percentage of total revenue.
•Restructuring and other related charges. Restructuring and other related charges consists of employee costs which include severance, retention pay, and related benefits incurred in connection with headcount reductions as part of our restructuring plan, including the 2023 Actions; real estate rationalization costs incurred to optimize our real estate footprint which include lease contract termination costs, asset impairment charges, and lease right-of-use asset and lease liability write-off gains or losses; product and services optimization costs incurred to advance our operating model, which include write-offs of capitalized software assets no longer in use; write-offs of acquired blockchain technology and related capitalized software due to the discontinuation of incremental development investments in this technology and related commercial efforts; and vendor rationalization costs for contractually committed services that we are no longer utilizing. We plan to incrementally incur additional restructuring costs through December 31, 2025, when the restructuring plan terminates and the 2023 Actions are completed.
•Impairment of intangible assets. Impairment of intangible assets are incurred when we determine that the carrying value of an asset exceeds its fair value. We test annually, or when triggering events arise. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we performed an impairment review of the customer relationships intangible assets obtained in our 2018 acquisition of Dealflo Limited (“Dealflo”). The impairment review was triggered by our July 2022 notification to customers regarding our intent to gradually sunset our Dealflo solution in the months leading up to December 31, 2023. The results of the impairment review indicated that the carrying value of the Dealflo customer relationships exceeded the fair value, and we recorded a $3.8 million impairment charge on the entire remaining value of the asset during the year ended December 31, 2022. This was recorded in "restructuring and other related charges" on the consolidated statements of operations.
•Amortization of intangible assets. Acquired intangible assets are amortized over their respective amortization periods and are periodically evaluated for impairment or changes in estimated useful life.
Segment Results
Segment operating income (loss) consists of the revenue generated by a segment, less the direct costs of revenue, sales and marketing, research and development and amortization and any impairment charges that are incurred directly by a segment. Unallocated corporate costs include general and administrative expense and other company-wide costs that are not attributable to a particular segment. Financial results by operating segment are included below under Results of Operations. As of December 31, 2024, we adopted ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. See Note 3, Segment Information, for additional information.
Interest Income, Net
Interest income, net, consists of income earned on our cash equivalents and short-term investments. Our cash equivalents and short-term investments are invested in short-term instruments at current market rates.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net, primarily includes exchange gains (losses) on transactions that are denominated in currencies other than our subsidiaries’ functional currencies, subsidies received from foreign governments in support of our research and development in those countries, and other miscellaneous non-operational expenses.
Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate reflects our global structure related to the ownership of our intellectual property (“IP”). Our IP in our Security Solutions business is owned by a U.S. operating subsidiary. The e-signature IP in our Digital
36

Agreements business is owned by a subsidiary in Canada. These subsidiaries have entered into agreements with most of the other OneSpan entities under which those other entities provide services to the IP owners on a cost plus basis. In addition, many of our OneSpan entities operate as distributors for all of our OneSpan products. Under this structure, the earnings of our service provider and distributor subsidiaries are relatively constant. These subsidiaries tend to be in jurisdictions with higher effective tax rates. Fluctuations in earnings flow to the IP owners.
We record changes in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets that, based on management’s assessment, are considered not to be more likely than not to be realized. The decrease in the valuation allowance in 2024 reflects a change in management's assessment of the ability to use existing deferred tax assets, including NOLs, due to an increase in the operating profit and intra-entity asset transfer of certain intellectual property ("IP Transfer") discussed in Note 13, Income Taxes. The increase in the valuation allowance in 2023 reflects Net Operating Losses (“NOLs”), other deduction carryforwards, and credits for which the realization is not more likely than not. The change in valuation allowance in 2024 also reflects other factors including, but not limited to, changes in management’s assessment of the ability to use existing deferred tax assets, including NOLs and other deduction carryforwards.
Management assesses the need for a valuation allowance on a regular basis, weighing all positive and negative evidence to determine whether a deferred tax asset will be fully or partially realized. In evaluating the realizability of deferred tax assets, significant pieces of negative evidence such as 3-year cumulative losses are considered. Management also reviews reversal patterns of temporary differences to determine if the Company would have sufficient taxable income due to the reversal of temporary differences to support the realization of deferred tax assets. Management continues to maintain a valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets in jurisdictions where assets are not more likely than not to be realized. For all other remaining deferred tax assets, management believes it is still more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.
Impact of Currency Fluctuations
In 2024 and 2023, we generated approximately 83% of our revenue for both years and incurred approximately 59% and 58% of our operating expenses outside of the U.S., respectively. As a result, changes in currency exchange rates, especially the Euro exchange rate and the Canadian dollar exchange rate, can have a significant impact on our revenue and operating expenses.
While the majority of our revenue is generated outside of the U.S., a significant amount of our revenue earned during the year ended December 31, 2024 was denominated in U.S. dollars. In 2024, approximately 55% of our revenue was denominated in U.S. dollars, 41% was denominated in Euros and 4% was denominated in other currencies. In 2023, approximately 53% of our revenue was denominated in U.S. dollars, 43% was denominated in Euros and 4% was denominated in other currencies.
In general, to minimize the net impact of currency fluctuations on operating income, we attempt to denominate an amount of billings in a currency such that it would provide a natural hedge against the operating expenses being incurred in that currency. We expect that changes in currency rates may impact our future results if we are unable to match amounts of revenue with our operating expenses in the same currency. If the amount of our revenue in Europe denominated in Euros continues as it is now or declines, we may not be able to balance fully the exposures of currency exchange rates on revenue and operating expenses.
The financial position and the results of operations of our foreign subsidiaries, with the exception of our subsidiaries in Switzerland, Singapore and Canada, are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. The functional currency for our subsidiaries in Switzerland, Singapore and Canada is the U.S. dollar. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments arising from differences in exchange rates generated comprehensive loss of $3.3 million in 2024 and a comprehensive gain of $3.7 million in 2023. These amounts are included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.
Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations in other income (expense). Foreign exchange transaction losses aggregated $0.9 million and $1.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

(1) Professional services and other includes perpetual software licenses revenue, which was immaterial for the year ended December 31, 2024 and approximately 1% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, total revenue increased by $8.1 million, or 3%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. Changes in foreign exchange rates as compared to the same period in 2023 negatively impacted total revenue by approximately $0.1 million.
Additional information on our revenue by segment follows.
•Security Solutions revenue decreased $2.0 million, or approximately 1%, during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This decrease was driven primarily by lower volumes of hardware devices sold, lower perpetual software license and perpetual-based maintenance revenues as we focus on transitioning to on-premises and cloud subscription license models, and the sunsetting of our Dealflo solution. The decrease was largely offset by higher on-premises subscription revenue from existing customer expansion, including an increase in multi-year contracts, for which we recognize most of the revenue early in the contract term. Changes in foreign exchange rates compared to the same period in 2023 negatively impacted Security Solutions revenue by $0.1 million.
•Digital Agreements revenue increased $10.1 million, or approximately 20%, during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in Digital Agreements revenue was driven by higher cloud subscription revenue from existing customer expansion and new customers (which we sometimes refer to as "new logos"), partially offset by lower maintenance revenue related to the sunsetting of our on-premises e-signature product. Changes in foreign exchange rates as compared to the same period in 2023 favorably impacted Digital Agreements revenue by less than $0.1 million.
Revenue by Geographic Regions: We classify our sales by customer location in three geographic regions: 1) EMEA, which includes Europe, Middle East and Africa; 2) the Americas, which includes sales in North, Central, and South America; and 3) Asia Pacific (APAC), which also includes Australia, New Zealand, and India. The breakdown of revenue in each of our major geographic areas was as follows:

Americas | 36 | % |  | 34 | % |  |  |  |
APAC | 20 | % |  | 19 | % |  |  |  |

For the year ended December 31, 2024, revenue generated in EMEA was $3.0 million or 3% lower than the same period in 2023, primarily driven by a decrease in hardware revenue due to lower volumes sold and the impact of sunsetting our Dealflo solution, largely offset by an increase in software authentication revenue from customer expansions.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, revenue generated in the Americas was $6.7 million or 8% higher than the same period in 2023, primarily driven by an increase in e-signature revenue from customer expansion and new logos and an increase in software authentication revenue from customer expansion, partially offset by a decrease in hardware revenue due to lower volumes sold.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, revenue generated in APAC was $4.3 million or 10% higher than the same period in 2023, primarily driven by an increase in software authentication revenue from customer expansions, partially offset by a decrease in hardware revenue due to lower volumes sold.
Cost of Goods Sold, Gross Profit and Gross Margin
The following table presents costs of goods sold for our products and services for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023:

| Years Ended December 31, |  |  |  |
(In thousands, except percentages) | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | $ Change |  | % Change
Cost of goods sold |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Product and license | $ | 36,732 |  |  | $ | 48,676 |  |  | $ | (11,944) |  |  | (25) | %
Services and other | 31,871 |  |  | 28,715 |  |  | 3,156 |  |  | 11 | %
Total cost of goods sold | $ | 68,603 |  |  | $ | 77,391 |  |  | $ | (8,788) |  |  | (11) | %
Gross profit | $ | 174,576 |  |  | $ | 157,715 |  |  | $ | 16,861 |  |  | 11 | %
Gross margin |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Services and other | 71 | % |  | 72 | % |  |  |  |
Total gross margin | 72 | % |  | 67 | % |  |  |  |

The cost of product and license revenue decreased $11.9 million or 25% for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in cost of product and license revenue was primarily driven by lower hardware revenues.
The cost of services and other revenue increased $3.2 million or 11% for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was largely due to higher cloud platform costs related to
40

higher volume usage and the write-off of acquired technology and capitalized internally developed software costs due to our decision to discontinue our investment in blockchain technology in 2024.
Gross profit increased $16.9 million, or 11% for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. Total gross margin was 72% for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to 67% for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in total gross profit was driven by higher software versus hardware revenue mix and the changes in cost of revenue discussed above.
The majority of our inventory purchases are denominated in U.S. dollars. Our sales are denominated in various currencies, including the Euro. The impact of changes in currency rates are estimated to have had a unfavorable impact on overall cost of goods sold of approximately $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Had currency rates in 2024 been equal to rates in the comparable period of 2023, the gross profit margin would have been less than 1 percentage point higher for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Additional information on our gross profit by segment follows.
•Security Solutions gross profit increased $12.9 million, or approximately 11%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the prior year. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by an increase in subscription revenue. Security Solutions gross margin was 73% and 65% for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in gross margin is primarily the result of increased subscription revenue which is a higher margin product, combined with a decline in hardware revenue, which has lower margins.
•Digital Agreements gross profit increased $4.0 million, or approximately 11%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the prior year. The increase in gross profit was driven by higher overall revenue, partially offset by higher cloud platform costs and higher depreciation of capitalized software costs. Digital Agreements gross margin for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was 68% and 74%, respectively. The decrease in gross margin is primarily the result of an increase in depreciation of capitalized software costs and the write-off in 2024 of the previously capitalized software costs discussed above.
Operating Expenses
For the year ended December 31, 2024, operating expenses decreased by $56.8 million, or 30%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. Changes in foreign exchange rates favorably impacted operating expenses by approximately less than $0.1 million as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023.
The following table presents the breakout of operating expenses by category as of December 31, 2024 and 2023:

Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses decreased $25.7 million, or 37%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by lower employee compensation costs which included decreases in commissions, salaries, and benefits as a result of headcount reductions, decreased consulting and marketing costs, and lower travel and entertainment expenses.
Average full-time sales and marketing employee headcount for year ended December 31, 2024 was 161, compared to 339 for year ended December 31, 2023. Average headcount in 2024 was 53% lower than in 2023 due to the restructuring activities discussed elsewhere in this Item 7.
41

Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses decreased $6.0 million, or 16%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily driven by lower compensation costs, which included a decrease in salaries, payroll taxes, and related benefits as a result of lower headcount and lower consulting expenses, partially offset by increased bonus expense accruals.
Average full-time research and development employee headcount for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 234, compared to 305 for year ended December 31, 2023. Average headcount in 2024 was 23% lower than in 2023 due to the restructuring activities discussed elsewhere in this Item 7.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased $12.3 million, or 21%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. This decrease in expense was largely due to lower employee compensation costs, which included a decrease in salaries, severance, payroll taxes, and related benefits as a result of lower headcount. Additionally, stock-based compensation expense was lower year-over-year due to lower headcount, including the termination of our former CEO, and lower annual equity awards granted to employees. These decreases were offset by higher bonus accruals and other non-recurring expenses.
Average full-time general and administrative employee headcount for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 100, compared to 139 for the year ended December 31, 2023. Average headcount in 2024 was 28% lower than in 2023 due to the restructuring activities discussed elsewhere in this Item 7.
Restructuring and Other Related Charges
Restructuring and other related charges were $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $17.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of $12.9 million or 74%. The year-over-year decrease was due to higher restructuring costs in 2023, including more significant headcount reductions and the termination of the Brussels and Chicago leases, partially offset by an increase in capitalized software costs and acquired technology write-offs in 2024.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets was $2.4 million for both years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Segment Operating Income (Loss)
Information on our operating income (loss) by segment follows.
•Security Solutions: For the year ended December 31, 2024, Security Solutions operating income was $90.1 million, which was $29.9 million, or 50%, higher than the prior year. This increase was driven by higher gross profit (discussed above), a result of favorable product and revenue mix, and lower sales and marketing expenses, research and development expenses, and restructuring expenses all largely due to lower employee costs due to lower headcount.
•Digital Agreements: Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $5.6 million, compared to an operating loss of $18.5 million for the prior year. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by higher revenue, lower sales and marketing expenses and research and development expenses, including lower employee compensation costs, marketing expenses, travel and entertainment costs, and lower restructuring expenses, partially offset by the write-off of our acquired blockchain technology and related capitalized software in 2024.

Interest income, net, was $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in interest income is due to lower average excess cash invested and a lower average rate yield in the period compared to the prior year.

Other income (expense), net | $ | (125) |  |  | $ | (532) |  |  | $ | 407 |  |  | (77)%

Other income (expense), net, includes subsidies received from foreign governments in support of our research and development in those countries, exchange gains (losses) on transactions that are denominated in currencies other than our subsidiaries’ functional currencies, and other miscellaneous non-operational, non-recurring income and expenses.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, other income (expense), net was $(0.1) million, compared to $(0.5) million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The fluctuation was primarily driven by a decrease in subsidies received from foreign governments, offset by lower transaction losses due to the favorable US dollar rate against other functional currencies and lower loss on disposal of assets.

(Benefit) provision for income taxes | $ | (10,595) |  |  | $ | 2,486 |  |  | $ | (13,081) |  | NM

We recorded an income tax benefit of $10.6 million and income tax expense of $2.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The income tax benefit recorded for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily attributable to the worthless stock deduction, release of valuation allowance, income tax benefit attributable to the IP Transfer, offset by income tax expense attributable to an increase in income before taxes.
Loss Carryforwards Available
At December 31, 2024, we have gross deferred tax assets of $56.8 million resulting from U.S. federal, foreign and state NOL carryforwards of $183.7 million and other foreign deductible carryforwards of $130.3 million. At December 31, 2024, we have a valuation allowance of $37.2 million against deferred tax assets related to certain carryforwards (see Note 13, Income Taxes.
Key Business Metrics and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In our quarterly earnings press releases and conference calls, we discuss the below key metrics and financial measures that are not calculated according to generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These metrics and non-GAAP financial measures help us monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our operations and evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Management believes that these metrics and non-GAAP financial measures help illustrate underlying trends in our business. We use these metrics and non-GAAP financial measures to establish budgets and operational goals (communicated internally and externally), manage our business and evaluate our performance. We also believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these metrics and non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental information in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. We believe these metrics and non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because they allow for greater transparency with respect to financial measures used by management in their financial and operational decision-making and also because they are used by investors and the analyst community to help evaluate the health of our business.
Annual Recurring Revenue
We use annual recurring revenue ("ARR") as an approximate measure to monitor the revenue growth of our recurring business. ARR represents the annualized value of the active portion of SaaS, term-based license, and maintenance and support contracts at the end of the reporting period. For term-based license arrangements, the amount included in ARR is consistent with the amount that we invoice the customer annually for the term-based license transaction. A customer with a one-year term-based license contract will be invoiced for the total value of the contract at the beginning of the contractual term, while a customer with a multi-year term-based license contract will be invoiced for each annual period at the
43

beginning of each year of the contract. For contracts that include annual values that increase over time because there are additional deliverables in subsequent periods, we include in ARR only the annualized value of components of the contract that are considered active as of the date of the ARR calculation. We do not include the future committed increases in the contract value as of the date of the ARR calculation.
We consider a contract to be active from when the product or service contractual term commences (the “start date”) until the right to use the product or service ends (the “expiration date”). Even if the contract with the customer is executed before the start date, the contract will not count toward ARR until the customer's right to receive the benefit of the products or services has commenced.
To the extent that we are negotiating a renewal with a customer within 90 days after the expiration of a recurring contract, we continue to include that revenue in ARR if we are actively in discussions with the customer for a new recurring contract or renewal and the customer has not notified us of an intention not to renew. We exclude from the calculation of ARR renewal contracts that are more than 90 days after their expiration date, even if we are continuing to negotiate a renewal at that time.
ARR is not calculated based on recognized or unearned revenue and there is no direct relationship between revenue recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and the Company’s ARR business metric. We believe ARR is a valuable operating measure to assess the health of our SaaS, term-based license, and maintenance and support contracts because it illustrates our customer recurring contracts as of the measurement date. ARR is not a forecast of future revenue, which can be impacted by contract start and end dates and renewal rates, and does not include revenue from perpetual licenses, purchases of Digipass authenticators, training, professional services or other sources of revenue that are not deemed to be recurring in nature.
ARR does not have any standardized meaning and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. ARR should be viewed independently of revenue and deferred revenue as ARR is an operating metric and is not intended to be combined with or replace these items. Investors should consider our ARR operating measure only in conjunction with our GAAP financial results.
At December 31, 2024, we reported ARR of $167.7 million, which was 8% higher than 2023 ARR of $154.6 million. Changes in foreign exchange rates during the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the prior year negatively impacted ARR by approximately $0.1 million. ARR growth was primarily driven by an increase in subscription contracts and new logos, partially offset by the sunsetting of our on-premises e-signature and Dealflo solutions.
Net Retention Rate
Net Retention Rate ("NRR") is defined as the approximate year-over-year percentage growth in ARR from the same set of customers at the end of the prior year period. It measures the Company’s ability to increase revenue across our existing customer base through expanded use of our platform, offset by customers whose subscription contracts with us are not renewed or renew at a lower amount. The Company’s ability to drive growth and generate incremental revenue depends, in part, on our ability to maintain and grow our relationships with customers. NRR is an important way in which we track our performance in this area.
We reported NRR of 106% and 110% at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Year-over-year, NRR was primarily impacted by the same factors that affected ARR, as discussed above.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, long-term incentive compensation, restructuring and other related charges, and certain non-recurring items, including acquisition related costs, rebranding costs, and non-routine shareholder matters. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a simplified measure of performance for use in communicating our performance to investors and analysts and for comparisons to other companies within our industry.
As a performance measure, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA presents a view of our operating results that is most closely related to serving our customers. By excluding interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, long-term incentive compensation, restructuring costs, and certain other non-recurring items, we are able to evaluate performance without considering decisions that, in most cases, are not directly related to meeting our customers’ requirements and were either made in prior periods (e.g., depreciation, amortization, long-term incentive compensation, non-routine shareholder
44

matters), deal with the structure or financing of the business (e.g., interest, one-time strategic action costs, restructuring costs, impairment charges) or reflect the application of regulations that are outside of the control of our management team (e.g., taxes). In addition, removing the impact of these items helps us compare our core business performance with that of our competitors.
Non-GAAP financial metrics such as Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of performance under GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives or substitutes for the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, but, rather, should be considered together with our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP and included in Part IV, Item 15, Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.
The following table reconciles net income as reported on our consolidated statements of operations to non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA:

|  | Years Ended December 31,

Other non-recurring items (4) |  | 4,223 |  |  | 3,048 |
Adjusted EBITDA |  | $ | 72,502 |  |  | $ | 11,997 |

(1) Includes cost of sales depreciation and amortization expense directly related to delivering cloud subscription revenue of $3.4 million and $1.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Costs are recorded in “Services and other cost of goods sold” on the consolidated statements of operations.
(2) Long-term incentive compensation includes share-based compensation and cash incentive grants awarded to employees located in jurisdictions where we do not issue share-based compensation due to tax, regulatory or similar reasons. The immaterial expense associated with these cash incentive grants was $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
(3) Includes write-offs of intangible assets and property and equipment, net of $0.8 million and $1.0 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2023. Costs are recorded in "Services and other costs of good sold" and "Restructuring and other related charges," respectively, on the consolidated statements of operations. Also, includes restructuring and other related charges of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2023. These charges are recorded in "Services and other costs of good sold" on the consolidated statements of operations.
(4) For the year ended December 31, 2024, other non-recurring items consist of $4.2 million of fees related to non-recurring projects. For the year ended December 31, 2023, other non-recurring items consist of $1.6 million of fees related to non-recurring projects and our acquisition of substantially all of the assets of the ProvenDB business of Southbank Software Pty Ltd., and $1.4 million of fees related to non-recurring items, primarily severance payable to our former chief executive officer.
Adjusted EBITDA increased during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, primarily due to higher revenue and gross profit dollars as well as lower operating expenses as a result of restructuring activities described elsewhere in Item 7. Year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates favorably impacted Adjusted EBITDA by approximately $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Please see further discussion in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for an analysis of what comprises net income (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, and additional detail around items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents balances of $83.2 million and $43.0 million, respectively. Our cash and cash equivalents balance includes money market funds and U.S. treasury bills with maturities at acquisition of less than three months.
We are party to lease agreements that require letters of credit and guarantees to secure the obligations and a cash guarantee with a payroll vendor which totaled $0.2 million and $0.5 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The restricted cash related to the letters of credit and guarantees is recorded in "Restricted cash" on the consolidated balance sheets.
As of December 31, 2024, we held $63.6 million of cash and cash equivalents in subsidiaries outside of the United States. Of that amount, $63.3 million is not subject to repatriation restrictions, but may be subject to taxes upon repatriation.
We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months.
Our cash flows are as follows:

| Years Ended December 31,
(In thousands) | 2024 |  | 2023
Cash provided by (used in): |  |  |
Operating activities | $ | 55,667 |  |  | $ | (10,735) |
Investing activities | $ | (9,305) |  |  | $ | (12,013) |
Financing activities | $ | (5,244) |  |  | $ | (32,094) |
Effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents | $ | (1,317) |  |  | $ | 997 |

Operating Activities
Cash provided by (used in) operating activities is primarily comprised of net income (loss), as adjusted for non-cash items, and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Non-cash adjustments consist primarily of allowance for credit losses, amortization of intangible assets, deferred taxes, depreciation of property and equipment, and share-based compensation. We expect cash inflows from operating activities to be affected by increases or decreases in sales and timing of collections. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities have been for personnel and vendor costs. We expect cash outflows from operating activities to be affected by changes in personnel costs and the payments of expenditures.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, $55.7 million of cash was provided by operating activities. This was primarily driven by a significant increase in net income for the period as a result of the restructuring and cost savings initiatives. For the year ended December 31, 2023, $10.7 million of cash was used in operating activities.
Our working capital at December 31, 2024 was $64.8 million, a increase of $33.3 million, or 106%, from $31.5 million at December 31, 2023. The increase was due to a significantly higher cash balance, partially offset by lower accounts receivable, and lower accounts payable, accrued wages and payroll taxes, and deferred revenue.
Investing Activities
The changes in cash flows from investing activities primarily relate to timing of purchases of property and equipment, capitalized software activities, and activity in connection with acquisitions. We expect to continue to purchase property and equipment to support the growth of our business as well as to continue to invest in our infrastructure and activity in connection with acquisitions.
For the year ended December 31, 2024 cash of $9.3 million was used in investing activities, compared to cash of $12.0 million used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2023. The cash used for the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily attributable to additions to capitalized software activities.
46

Financing Activities
The changes in cash flows from financing activities primarily relate to the purchases of common stock under our share repurchase program and tax payments for restricted stock issuances.
For the year ended December 31, 2024, net cash used in financing activities was $5.2 million, which consisted primarily of $5.0 million of tax payments for restricted stock issuances and cash paid for the holdback component of our acquisition of substantially all of the assets of the ProvenDB business of Southbank Software Pty Ltd..
For the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in financing activities was $32.1 million, which consisted of $29.2 million of common stock repurchases, both in open market repurchases and pursuant to the Tender Offer discussed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Part IV, Item 15, Exhibits and Financial Statements Schedules, and $2.9 million of tax payments for restricted stock issuances.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
We have unrecognized purchase obligations of $5.0 million for software agreements related to the administration of our business which range from 1 to 3 years.
We have operating lease obligations of $9.3 million which will expire in the next 1 to 9 years. The operating lease obligations do not include common area maintenance charges or real estate taxes under our operating leases, for which we are also obligated. These charges are generally not fixed and can fluctuate from year to year.
We have taxes payable of $0.5 million due within 1 year, which primarily represent deemed repatriation tax from 2017. We had $0 of unrecognized tax benefits as of both December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to bad debts, net realizable value of inventory and intangible assets. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following critical accounting policies affect significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
We record revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:
•Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
•Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
•Determination of the transaction price;
•Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
•Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.
47

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services, which excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by us from a customer, are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight before control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in "Cost of goods sold".
Nature of Goods and Services
We derive our revenues primarily from product and license revenue, which includes hardware products and on-premises subscription revenue, and services and other, which is inclusive of cloud subscription revenue, maintenance and support, and professional services.
Subscription: Subscription includes cloud and on-premises subscription revenue.
We generate cloud subscription revenues from our Security Solutions and Digital Agreements cloud service offerings. Our standard customer arrangements do not provide the customer with the right to take possession of the software supporting the cloud-based application service at any time. As such, these arrangements are considered service contracts and revenue is recognized ratably over the service period of the contract. Customer payments are normally in advance for annual service.
Revenue from the sale of on-premises subscription revenue is recorded upon delivery which is the latter of when the customer receives the ability to access the software or when they are legally allowed to use the software. No significant obligations or contingencies exist with regard to delivery, customer acceptance or rights of return at the time revenue is recognized. We offer term licenses for on-premises subscription revenue ranging from one to five years in length. For term licenses, payments are either on installment or in advance. In limited circumstances, we integrate third-party software solutions into our software products. We have determined that, consistent with our conclusion under prior revenue recognition rules, generally we act as the principal with respect to the satisfaction of the related performance obligation and record the corresponding revenue on a gross basis from these transactions. For transactions in which we do not act as the principal, we recognize revenue on a net basis. The fees owed to the third parties are recognized as a component of cost of goods sold when the revenue is recognized.
In addition, we also offer annual or multi-year customer support subscription services, whereby customers can buy different levels of customer support packages for an annual recurring subscription fee.
Maintenance and support: Maintenance and support agreements generally call for us to provide software updates and technical support, respectively, to customers. The annual fee for maintenance and technical support is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance and support agreement as this is the period the services are delivered. Customer payments are normally in advance for annual service.
Professional services and other revenue: Professional services revenues are primarily comprised of implementing, automating and extending business processes, technology infrastructure, and software applications. Professional services revenues are recognized over time as services are rendered, usually over a period of time that is generally less than 12 months. Most projects are performed on a time and materials basis while a portion of revenues is derived from projects performed on a fixed fee. For time and material contracts, revenues are generally recognized and invoiced by multiplying the number of hours expended in the performance of the contract by the contractual hourly rates. For fixed fee contracts, revenues are generally recognized using an input method based on the ratio of hours expended to total estimated hours to complete the services. Customer payments normally correspond with delivery. Professional services and other revenue includes perpetual licenses revenue, which was immaterial for the year ended December 31, 2024 and approximately 1% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023. Perpetual licenses grant the customer unlimited access to the software.
Hardware products: Revenue from the sale of security hardware is recorded upon shipment, which is the point at which control of the goods are transferred and the completion of the performance obligations, unless there are specific terms that would suggest control is transferred at a later date (e.g. delivery). No significant obligations or contingencies typically exist with regard to delivery, customer acceptance or rights of return at the time revenue is recognized. Customer invoices and subsequent payments normally correspond with delivery.
48

The Company also enters into separate service agreements with certain hardware customers to perform distribution services. In these situations, revenue is recognized prior to physical delivery of a good (i.e. “bill-and-hold arrangements). The Company evaluates bill-and-hold arrangements, and records revenue accordingly when the following criteria are met:
•The reason for the bill-and-hold arrangement is substantive;
•The product is identified separately as belonging to the customer;
•The product currently is ready for physical transfer to the customer; and
•OneSpan does not have the ability to use the product or to direct it to another customer.
Multiple-Element Arrangements
In our typical multiple-element arrangement, the primary deliverables include:
1.A client component (i.e. an item that is used by the person being authenticated in the form of either a new standalone hardware device or software that is downloaded onto a device that the customer already owns);
2.Server system software that is installed on the customer’s systems (i.e., software on the server system that verifies the identity of the person being authenticated) or licenses for additional users on the server system software if the server system software had been installed previously; and
3.Post contract support ("PCS") in the form of maintenance on the server system software or support.
Our multiple-element arrangements may also include other items that are usually delivered prior to the recognition of any revenue and are incidental to the overall transaction such as initialization of the hardware device, customization of the hardware device itself or the packaging in which it is delivered, deployment services where we deliver the device to our customer’s end-use customer or employee and, in some limited cases, professional services to assist with the initial implementation of a new customer.
Significant Judgments
We enter into contracts to deliver a combination of hardware devices, software licenses, subscriptions, maintenance and support and, in some situations, professional services. The Company evaluates the nature of the goods or services promised in these arrangements to identify the distinct performance obligations. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment depending on the terms and conditions of the respective customer arrangement. When a hardware client device and licenses to server software are sold in a contract, they are treated as a single performance obligation because the software license is deemed to be a component of the hardware that is integral to the functionality of the hardware that is used by our customers for identity authentication. When a software client device is sold in a contract server software, the licenses are considered a single performance obligation to deliver the authentication solution to the customer. In either of these types of arrangements, maintenance and support and professional services are typically distinct separate performance obligations from the hardware or software solutions. Our contracts to deliver subscription services typically do not include multiple performance obligations; however, in certain limited cases customers may purchase professional services that are distinct performance obligations.
For contracts that contain multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations based on their estimated relative standalone selling price. Judgment is required to determine the stand-alone selling price (“SSP”) of each distinct performance obligation. We determine SSP for maintenance and support and professional services based on observable inputs; specifically, the range of prices charged to customers to renew annual maintenance and support contracts and the range of hourly rates we charge our customers in standalone professional services contracts. In instances where SSP is not directly observable, and when we sell at a highly variable price range, such as for transactions involving software licenses or subscriptions, we determine the SSP for those performance obligations using the residual approach.
49

Credit Losses
In accordance with Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, the Company evaluates its allowance based on expected losses rather than incurred losses, which is known as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model. The allowance is determined using the loss rate approach and is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Where financial instruments do not share risk characteristics, they are evaluated on an individual basis. The allowance is based on relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
Income Taxes
As a global company, we calculate and provide for income taxes in each tax jurisdiction in which we operate. The provision for income taxes includes the amounts payable or refundable for the current year, the effect of deferred taxes and impacts from uncertain tax positions. Our provision for income taxes is significantly affected by shifts in the geographic mix of our pre-tax earnings across tax jurisdictions, changes in tax laws and regulations, and tax planning opportunities available in each tax jurisdiction.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of our assets and liabilities and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates that will apply to taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. We recognize the effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities and in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
We recognize tax benefits for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. Unrecognized tax benefits are tax benefits claimed in our income tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. Assumptions, judgments, and the use of estimates are required in determining whether the “more-likely-than-not” standard has been met when developing the provision for income taxes.
We recognize the tax impact of including certain foreign earnings in U.S. taxable income as a period cost. We have recognized deferred income taxes for local country income and withholding taxes that could be incurred on distributions of non-U.S. earnings because we do not plan to indefinitely reinvest such earnings.
We monitor for changes in tax laws and reflect the impacts of tax law changes in the period of enactment.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
For information regarding our new accounting pronouncements, see Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Part IV, Item 15, Exhibits and Financial Statements Schedules.
Item 7A - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk (In thousands)
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk – In 2024, we generated approximately 83% of our revenue outside the United States, primarily in Europe, Latin America and Asia Pacific. A significant portion of our business operations is transacted in foreign currencies. As a result, we have exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations. We are affected by both foreign currency translation and transaction adjustments. Translation adjustments result from the conversion of the foreign subsidiaries’ balance sheets and income statements to U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates and weighted average exchange rates, respectively. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are recorded directly into stockholders’ equity. Transaction adjustments result from currency exchange movements when one of our companies transacts business in a currency that differs from its local currency. These adjustments are recorded as gains or losses in our consolidated statements of operations. Our business transactions are spread across numerous countries and currencies. As noted in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations above, we attempt to minimize the net impact of currency on operating earnings by denominating an amount of billings in a currency such that it would provide a natural hedge against the operating expenses being incurred in that currency. We do not believe that an immediate 10% increase or decrease in the relative value of the U.S. dollar to other currencies would have a material effect on our operating results.
50

Interest Rate Risk – We have minimal interest rate risk. We had no debt outstanding at December 31, 2024. Our cash and cash equivalents are invested in short-term instruments at current market rates. The effect of a hypothetical one percentage point increase or decrease would not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Item 8 - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
The information in response to this item is included in our consolidated financial statements, together with the report thereon of KPMG LLP, in Item 15, Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.
Item 9 - Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
None.
Item 9A - Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), 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 (the "Exchange Act")) as of December 31, 2024.
Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2024, to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The management of OneSpan Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act ). Management, led by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based upon the criteria set forth in the Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013).
Management has concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024 to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, included on page F-2 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Management believes that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and are effective at the reasonable assurance level. However, our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and
51

instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.
Item 9B - Other Information
Director and Officer Trading Arrangements
None of our directors or executive officers adopted or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or a non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement (as those terms are defined in Item 408(c) of Regulation S-K) during the fourth quarter of 2024.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
OneSpan Inc.:
Opinions on the Consolidated Financial Statements and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of OneSpan Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Basis for Opinions
The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
F-2

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Identification of performance obligations in contracts containing multiple goods and services
As discussed in Notes 2 and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company enters into contracts to deliver a combination of hardware devices, software licenses, subscriptions, maintenance and support and, in some situations, professional services. The Company evaluates the nature of the goods and services promised in these arrangements to identify the distinct performance obligations. The Company recognized total revenue of $243 million, a portion of which related to contracts containing multiple performance obligations, for the year ended December 31, 2024. We identified the evaluation of the Company’s identification of performance obligations in contracts containing multiple goods and services as a critical audit matter. Specifically, complex auditor judgment was required to evaluate the Company's identification of performance obligations in such contracts, including for contracts with new customers or contracts that were amended with existing customers.
The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the Company’s revenue recognition process. This included controls related to the identification of performance obligations and evaluation of terms and conditions present in individual contracts containing multiple goods and services. We tested a selection of contracts, including contracts with new customers and contracts that were amended with existing customers, by obtaining and reading the underlying contract and accounting analysis to evaluate the Company’s identification of performance obligations. Specifically, we evaluated the completeness and accuracy of the Company’s identification of terms and conditions that were unique to the selected contracts and the Company’s determination of the impact of those terms and conditions on revenue recognition.

OneSpan Inc.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Unless otherwise noted, references in this Annual Report on Form 10-K to “OneSpan” and “Company” refer to OneSpan Inc. and its subsidiaries.
Note 1 – Description of the Company and Basis of Presentation
Description of the Company
OneSpan delivers cutting-edge solutions in two key areas: advanced secure authentication, which is provided through its Security Solutions business unit, and digital agreements, which is provided through its Digital Agreements business unit. The Company's secure authentication solutions protect devices, users, and applications with robust multi-factor and passwordless authentication and other fraud prevention technologies. Its digital agreements solutions combine identity verification, electronic signatures, and digital workflows to streamline agreements, enhance compliance, and accelerate business processes. OneSpan empowers organizations to automate and secure both customer-facing and revenue-generating processes, supporting a wide range of use cases—from simple transactions to complex workflows requiring elevated security. OneSpan has operations in Austria, Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, France, Japan, The Netherlands, Singapore, Switzerland, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom (U.K.), and the United States (U.S.).
Business Developments
The Company's two business units, Security Solutions and Digital Agreements, are also its reportable operating segments. During 2022 and the first half of 2023, the Company was operating under a three-year strategic plan that focused on driving revenue growth in Digital Agreements. However, in mid-2023, the Company determined it was unlikely to achieve the revenue growth levels set forth in that strategic plan within the contemplated three-year timeframe due to a number of factors, including increasing maturity and competitiveness in the market for e-signature solutions, limited awareness of the OneSpan brand among buyers of e-signature tools, and higher pricing aggressiveness from competitors.
In response to these challenges, the Company modified its strategy to focus more heavily on improving profitability margins across the business. To this end, in August 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved additional restructuring actions designed to drive higher levels of profitability while maintaining the Company's long-term growth potential. The Company now plans to drive profitable, efficient growth in both operating segments, with a particular emphasis on growing subscription revenue and sales of high-margin software solutions.
Dividends
On December 16, 2024, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend as part of the initiation of a recurring quarterly dividend program. The initial quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share was paid on February 14, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on January 31, 2025. The declaration and payment of future dividends is subject to the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of OneSpan Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
F-9

The Company regularly assesses its estimates. Estimates are based on historical experience and on various other market-specific and relevant assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions
The financial position and results of operations of the majority of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments arising from differences in exchange rates are charged or credited to other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations in other income (expense), net. Foreign exchange transaction losses aggregated to $0.9 million, $1.1 million, and $1.9 million in 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents are high-quality short-term money market instruments and commercial paper with maturities at acquisition of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents are held by a number of U.S. and non-U.S. commercial banks and money market investment funds.
The Company is party to lease agreements that require letters of credit to secure the obligations and is also required to maintain a cash guarantee with a payroll vendor, which totaled $0.2 million and $0.5 million at December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The restricted cash related to the letters of credit and the payroll vendor cash guarantee is recorded in "Restricted cash" on the consolidated balance sheets.
Credit Losses
Reasonable assurance of collection is a requirement for revenue recognition. Credit limit adjustments for existing customers may result from the periodic review of outstanding accounts receivable. The Company records trade accounts receivable at invoice values, which are generally equal to fair value.
In accordance with accounting standards update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, the Company evaluates its allowance based on expected losses rather than incurred losses, which is known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. The allowance is determined using the loss rate approach and is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Where financial instruments do not share risk characteristics, they are evaluated on an individual basis. The allowance is based on relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company's financial instruments were cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities. The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined by using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies, as defined in Accounting Standards Codification "ASC" 820, Fair Value Measurements. The fair values of the financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying amounts at December 31, 2024 and 2023. See Note 10, Fair Value Measurements, for additional detail.
Inventories, net
Inventories, consisting principally of hardware and component parts, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method. The Company writes down inventory when it appears that the carrying cost of the inventory may not be recovered through subsequent sale of the inventory. The Company analyzes the quantity of inventory on hand, the quantity sold in the past year, the anticipated sales volume in the form of sales to new customers as well as sales to previous customers, the expected sales price and the cost of making the
F-10

sale when evaluating the valuation of inventory. If the sales volume or sales price of a specific model declines significantly, additional write downs may be required.
Property and Equipment, net
Property and equipment, net, is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets ranging from three to ten years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the remaining lease term or ten years. Additions and improvements are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Gains or losses resulting from sales or retirements are recorded as incurred, at which time related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. All of the Company's leases are classified as operating leases. Operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. Operating lease ROU assets are comprised of the lease liability plus prepaid rents and are reduced by lease incentives. The Company recognizes lease expense for operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Under Topic ASC 842, Leases, the Company made an accounting policy election to not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term of twelve months or less. Certain lease agreements contain lease and non-lease components. For automobile leases, lease and non-lease components are accounted for together, and for office leases, the components are accounted for separately using a relative standalone selling basis. The Company applies the portfolio approach to automobile leases with similar characteristics that commence in the same period. The majority of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate of return. As a result, the Company uses its imputed collateralized rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Certain lease agreements include payments adjusted periodically for inflation based on the consumer price index. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired in a business combination. The Company assesses the impairment of goodwill annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The annual impairment test date is October 1.
The Company’s impairment assessment begins with a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. The qualitative assessment includes comparing the overall financial performance of the reporting unit against the planned results. Additionally, the reporting unit’s fair value is assessed in light of certain events and circumstances, including macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, and other relevant entity and reporting unit specific events. The selection and assessment of qualitative factors used to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds the carrying value involves significant judgments. If it is determined under the qualitative assessment that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value.
No goodwill impairment was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.
Long-Lived and Intangible Assets, net
Finite-lived intangible assets include proprietary technology, customer relationships, and other intangible assets. Intangible assets, other than certain patents and trademarks with indefinite lives, are amortized over the useful life, which range from three to seven years for proprietary technology, five to twelve years for customer relationships, and ten to twenty years for patents and trademarks. Intangible assets arising from business combinations, such as acquired technology, customer relationships, and other intangible assets, are originally recorded at fair value.
F-11

Long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, finite-lived intangible assets being amortized and capitalized software costs for internal use, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the long-lived asset group may not be recoverable. An impairment loss shall be recognized if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset group exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If it is determined that an impairment loss has occurred, the loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the long-lived asset group exceeds its fair value. Long-lived assets held for sale are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less cost to sell.
Equity Method Investment
On January 31, 2022, the Company sold its equity interest in Promon AS (Promon) for $18.9 million and recorded the gain on sale of $14.8 million in “Other income (expense), net”, on the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022. Promon is a technology company headquartered in Norway that specializes in mobile app security, whose solutions focus largely on Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP).
Prior to January 31, 2022, the Company held a 17% interest in Promon and applied the equity method of accounting to its investment in Promon because it exercised significant influence on, but did not hold a controlling interest in, the investee. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s proportionate share of the net earnings (losses) of Promon was reported in “Other income (expense), net”, on the consolidated statements of operations. The impact of the proportionate share of net earnings (losses) was immaterial for the year ended December 31, 2022, as were the relative size of Promon’s assets and operations in relation to the Company’s.
The Company intends to continue to purchase and integrate Promon’s RASP technology into its customer software solutions.

Share Repurchase Program
On May 9, 2024, the Board of Directors terminated the stock repurchase program adopted on May 11, 2022 and adopted a new stock repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $50.0 million of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Share purchases under the program will take place in open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or tender offers, and may be made from time to time depending on market conditions, share price, trading volume, and other factors. The timing of the repurchases and the amount of stock repurchased in each transaction is subject to OneSpan’s sole discretion and will depend upon market and business conditions, applicable legal and credit requirements and other corporate considerations. The authorization is effective until May 9, 2026 unless the total amount has been used or authorization has been cancelled. The Company did not repurchase any shares for the year ended December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2024, approximately $50.0 million remained available for potential future repurchases under the repurchase program.
In December 2023 and under the previous stock repurchase program, the Company repurchased 2,380,834 shares of its issued and outstanding common stock pursuant to a modified “Dutch auction” tender offer (the "Tender Offer"). The purchase price paid for these shares was $10.50, or an aggregate cost of approximately $25.0 million, excluding fees and expenses related to the Tender Offer. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company repurchased 2.7 million
F-12

shares of the Company’s stock for $29.2 million in the aggregate, both in open market transactions and pursuant to the Tender Offer, at an average cost of $10.62 per share under its repurchase program.
Revenue Recognition
The Company records revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:
•Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
•Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
•Determination of the transaction price;
•Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
•Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.
Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company's customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services, which excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight before control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in Cost of goods sold.
Nature of Goods and Services
The Company derives its revenues primarily from product and license revenue, which includes hardware products and on-premises subscription revenue, and services and other, which is inclusive of cloud subscription revenue, maintenance and support, and professional services.
Subscription: Subscription includes cloud and on-premises subscription revenue.
Cloud subscription revenues are generated from the Company's Security Solutions and Digital Agreements service offerings. Standard customer arrangements do not provide the customer with the right to take possession of the software supporting the cloud-based application service at any time. As such, these arrangements are considered service contracts and revenue is recognized ratably over the service period of the contract. Customer payments are normally in advance for annual service.
Revenue from the sale of on-premises subscription revenue is recorded upon delivery which is the latter of when the customer receives the ability to access the software or when they are legally allowed to use the software. No significant obligations or contingencies exist with regard to delivery, customer acceptance or rights of return at the time revenue is recognized. The Company offers term licenses for on-premises subscription revenue ranging from one to five years in length. For term licenses, payments are either on installment or in advance. In limited circumstances, the Company integrates third-party software solutions into its software products. The Company has determined that, consistent with its conclusion under prior revenue recognition rules, the Company acts as the principal with respect to the satisfaction of the related performance obligation and records the corresponding revenue on a gross basis from these transactions. For transactions in which the Company does not act as the principal, the Company recognizes revenue on a net basis. The fees owed to the third parties are recognized as a component of cost of goods sold when the revenue is recognized.
Maintenance and support: Maintenance and support agreements generally call for the Company to provide software updates and technical support, respectively, to customers. The annual fee for maintenance and technical support is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance and support agreement as this is the period the services are delivered. Customer payments are normally in advance for annual service.
Professional services and other revenue: Professional services revenues are primarily comprised of implementing, automating and extending business processes, technology infrastructure, and software applications. Professional services revenues are recognized over time as services are rendered, usually over a period of time that is generally less than 12 months, most of which, are derived from projects performed on a fixed fee. For fixed fee contracts,
F-13

revenues are generally recognized using an input method based on the ratio of hours expended to total estimated hours to complete the services. Customer payments normally correspond with delivery. Professional services and other includes perpetual software licenses revenue, which was immaterial and approximately 1% and 2% of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. Perpetual licenses grant the customer unlimited access to the software.
Hardware products: Revenue from the sale of security hardware is recorded upon shipment, which is the point at which control of the goods are transferred and the performance obligations are completed, unless there are specific terms that would suggest control is transferred at a later date (e.g. delivery). No significant obligations or contingencies typically exist with regard to delivery, customer acceptance or rights of return at the time revenue is recognized. Customer invoices and subsequent payments normally correspond with delivery.
The Company also enters into separate service agreements with certain hardware customers to perform distribution services. In these situations, revenue is recognized prior to physical delivery of a good (i.e. “bill-and-hold arrangements). The Company evaluates bill-and-hold arrangement, and records revenue accordingly when the following criteria is met:
•The reason for the bill-and-hold arrangement is substantive;
•The product is identified separately as belonging to the customer;
•The product currently is ready for physical transfer to the customer;
•The Company does not have the ability to use the product or to direct it to another customer.
Multiple-Element Arrangements
In the Company's typical multiple-element arrangement, the primary deliverables include:
1.A client component (i.e. an item that is used by the person being authenticated in the form of either a new standalone hardware device or software that is downloaded onto a device that the customer already owns);
2.Server system software that is installed on the customer’s systems (i.e. software on the server system that verifies the identity of the person being authenticated) or licenses for additional users on the server system software if the server system software had been installed previously; and
3.Post contract support ("PCS") in the form of maintenance on the server system software or support.
The Company's multiple-element arrangements may also include other items that are usually delivered prior to the recognition of any revenue and are incidental to the overall transaction such as initialization of the hardware device, customization of the hardware device itself or the packaging in which it is delivered, deployment services where the Company delivers the device to its customer’s end-use customer or employee and, in some limited cases, professional services to assist with the initial implementation of a new customer.
For contracts that contain multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations based on their estimated relative standalone selling price. Judgment is required to determine the stand-alone selling price (“SSP”) of each distinct performance obligation. We determine SSP for maintenance and support and professional services based on observable inputs; specifically, the range of prices charged to customers to renew annual maintenance and support contracts and the range of hourly rates we charge customers in standalone professional services contracts. In instances where SSP is not directly observable, and when we sell at a highly variable price range, such as for transactions involving cloud and on-premise subscription-based licenses or hardware, we determine the SSP for those performance obligations using the residual approach.
Significant Judgments
The Company enters into contracts to deliver a combination of hardware devices, software licenses, subscriptions, maintenance and support and, in some situations, professional services. The Company evaluates the nature of the goods or
F-14

services promised in these arrangements to identify the distinct performance obligations. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment depending on the terms and conditions of the respective customer arrangement. When a hardware client device and licenses to server software are sold in a contract, they are treated as a single performance obligation because the software license is deemed to be a component of the hardware that is integral to the functionality of the hardware that is used by customers for identity authentication. When a software client device is sold in a contract server software, the licenses are considered a single performance obligation to deliver the authentication solution to the customer. In either of these types of arrangements, maintenance and support and professional services are typically distinct separate performance obligations from the hardware or software solutions. Contracts to deliver subscription services typically do not include multiple performance obligations; however, in certain limited cases customers may purchase professional services that are distinct performance obligations.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold related to product and license include direct product costs and direct costs, including personnel costs, production costs, and freight costs. Cost of goods sold related to service and other revenues are primarily costs related to cloud subscription solutions, including personnel, equipment costs, and capitalized software costs and internal professional services and maintenance support.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, commissions and bonuses, trade shows, marketing programs and other marketing activities, travel, outside consulting costs, and long-term incentive compensation. The Company's solutions are sold worldwide through a direct sales force as well as through distributors, resellers, systems integrators, and original equipment manufacturers.
Research and Development Costs
As part of its strategic plan in effect during 2022 and the first half of 2023, the Company began investing in its Digital Agreements operating segment for accelerated growth. In conjunction with expanded research and development activities to grow the Company’s transaction cloud platform and Digital Agreements product offerings, the Company began capitalizing certain costs incurred in connection with obtaining or developing internal-use software during the year ended December 31, 2022. These costs include payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with the internal-use software projects, external direct costs of materials and services costs while developing the software. Capitalized software costs are included in “Property and equipment, net” on the consolidated balance sheets and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated life of three years. Capitalization of such costs ceases when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose. Costs incurred during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages, as well as software maintenance and training costs, are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Other costs for research and development, principally the design and development of hardware, and the design and development of software prior to the determination of technological feasibility, are expensed as incurred on a project-by-project basis.
The Company capitalized $8.3 million and $10.1 million of internal-use software during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company has share-based employee compensation plans, described in Note 14, Share Compensation Plans. ASC 718, Stock Compensation, requires the Company to estimate the fair value of restricted stock granted to employees, directors and others to record compensation expense equal to the estimated fair value. Compensation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the vesting period for time-based awards and performance and market-based awards with cliff vesting provisions and on a graded basis for performance and market-based awards with graded vesting provisions. Forfeitures are recorded as incurred.
Retirement Benefits
The Company records annual expenses relating to defined benefit pension plans based on calculations which include various actuarial assumptions, including discount rates, assumed asset rates of return, compensation increases, and
F-15

turnover rates. The Company reviews its actuarial assumptions on an annual basis and makes modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends. The effects of gains, losses, and prior service costs and credits are amortized over the average service life. The funded status, or projected benefit obligation less plan assets, for each plan, is reflected in the consolidated financial statements using a December 31 measurement date.
Other Income (Expense), net
Other income (expense), net, consists primarily of exchange gains (losses) on transactions that are denominated in currencies other than the Company’s subsidiaries’ functional currencies, subsidies received from foreign governments in support of the Company's research and development in those countries and other miscellaneous non-operational income and expenses.
Income Taxes
The Company calculates and provides for income taxes in each tax jurisdiction in which it operates. The provision for income taxes includes the amounts payable or refundable for the current year, the effect of deferred taxes and impacts from uncertain tax positions. The Company’s provision for income taxes is significantly affected by shifts in the geographic mix of its pre-tax earnings across tax jurisdictions, changes in tax laws and regulations, and tax planning opportunities available in each tax jurisdiction.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities and for operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates that will apply to taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. The Company recognizes the effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities and in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company recognizes tax benefits for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. Unrecognized tax benefits are tax benefits claimed in the Company's income tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. Assumptions, judgments, and the use of estimates are required in determining whether the “more-likely-than-not” standard has been met when developing the provision for income taxes.
The Company recognizes the tax impact of including certain foreign earnings in U.S. taxable income as a period cost. The Company has recognized deferred income taxes for local country income and withholding taxes that could be incurred on distributions of non-U.S. earnings because management does not plan to indefinitely reinvest such earnings.
The Company monitors for changes in tax laws and reflect the impacts of tax law changes in the period of enactment.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) – Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted the standard of as of December 31, 2024 and adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which is intended to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. Public business entities are required to adopt for annual fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and early adoption is
F-16

permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, to improve financial reporting by requiring disclosures in the notes to financial statements about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the statement of operations. The requirements of the ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Note 3 – Segment Information
Segments are defined as components of a company that engage in business activities from which they may earn revenues and incur expenses, and for which separate financial information is available and is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company's reportable segments are businesses units that offer different products and services and are as follows:
•Security Solutions. Security Solutions consists of our broad portfolio of software products, software development kits (SDKs), and Digipass authenticator devices that are used to build applications designed to defend against attacks on digital transactions across online environments, devices, and applications. The software products and SDKs included in the Security Solutions segment are on-premises and, to a lesser extent, cloud software products, and include multi-factor authentication and transaction signing solutions, such as mobile application security and mobile software tokens.
•Digital Agreements. Digital Agreements consists of solutions that enable our clients to secure and automate business processes associated with their digital agreement and customer transaction lifecycles that require consent, non-repudiation and compliance. These solutions, which are largely cloud-based, include OneSpan Sign e-signature, OneSpan Notary, and Identity Verification.
The CODM evaluates performance for both reportable segments based on segment revenue, gross margins and operating income (loss). When using these metrics, the CODM considers forecast-to-actual variances on a quarterly basis when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. The CODM also uses these metrics for evaluating pricing strategy to assess the performance of each segment by comparing the results of each segment with one another and in determining the compensation of certain employees.
Segment operating income (loss) consists of the revenues generated by a segment, less the direct costs of revenue, sales and marketing expenses, research and development expenses, general and administrative expenses, restructuring and other related charges, and amortization of intangible assets expense that are incurred directly by a segment. Sales and marketing and research and development expenses were determined to be significant segment expenses. Unallocated corporate costs include costs related to administrative functions that are performed in a centralized manner that are not attributable to a particular segment. The accounting policies of both reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
Prior to 2023, the Company allocated certain cost of goods sold and operating expenses to its two reportable operating segments using a direct cost allocation and an allocation based on revenue split between the segments. As a result of the ongoing strategic transformation, the Company refined its operating segment allocation methodology to better align internal and external costs more directly to where the employee efforts are being spent on each segment moving forward. The revised methodology was applied on a prospective basis beginning in 2023. As a result of this change, there was an increase in cost of goods sold and operating expenses being allocated to the Digital Agreements segment, which better aligned with the investments the Company is making in that segment.
The tables below set forth information about the Company’s operating segments for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, along with the items necessary to reconcile the segment information to the totals reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Contract Liabilities (deferred revenue current and non-current) | $ | 70,855 |  |  | $ | 73,483 |

Contract assets relate primarily to multi-year term license arrangements and the remaining contractual billings. These contract assets are transferred to receivables when the right to billing occurs over a 2- to 5-year period. The contract
F-20

liabilities primarily relate to the advance consideration received from customers for subscription and maintenance services. Revenue is recognized for these services over time.
As a practical expedient, the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component when it is expected, at contract inception, that the period between the Company's transfer of a promised product or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that product or service will be one year or less. Extended payment terms are not typically included in contracts with customers.
Revenue recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024 included $66.1 million that was included on the December 31, 2023 consolidated balance sheet in contract liabilities. Deferred revenue increased in the same period due to timing of annual renewals.
Transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent the revenue that is expected to be recognized in future periods related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied, or partially unsatisfied, as of the end of the period. The following table includes estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) as of December 31, 2024:

The Company applies practical expedients and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations (a) that have original expected durations of one year or less, or (b) where revenue is recognized as invoiced.
Costs of obtaining a contract
The Company incurs incremental costs related to commissions, which can be directly tied to obtaining a contract. The Company capitalizes commissions associated with certain new contracts and amortizes the costs over a period of up to seven years, which is the determined benefit period based on the estimated customer relationship period or customer benefit period. The Company determined the period of benefit by taking into consideration the customer contracts, its technology and other factors, including customer attrition. Commissions are earned upon invoicing to the customer. For contracts with multiple year payment terms, because the commissions that are payable after year 1 are payable based on continued employment, they are expensed when incurred. Commissions and amortization expense are included in “Sales and marketing” expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Applying the practical expedient, the Company recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining contracts as an expense when incurred if the amortization period for the assets that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. These costs are included in the “Sales and marketing” caption in the consolidated statements of operations.
The following tables provide information related to the capitalized costs and amortization recognized in the current and prior period within "Other current assets" and "Other assets" on the consolidated balance sheets:

Note 6 - Business Acquisitions
On February 22, 2023, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of the ProvenDB business of Southbank Software Pty Ltd. ("ProvenDB") under the terms of an asset purchase agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the asset purchase agreement, the total consideration for the acquisition was $2.0 million, of which $1.8 million was paid in cash at closing. The remaining $0.2 million was held back as security for any indemnity claims made by the Company. If no indemnity claims are made by the Company this amount is required to be paid to the seller 12 months after the acquisition date. The Company paid the full amount of $0.2 million to the seller in February 2024.
ProvenDB is a developer of secure storage that leverages blockchain technology in order to prevent data tampering or alteration of documents. The technology acquired in the acquisition is expected to provide a foundational architecture for future blockchain-based digital solutions, including secure storage, and is allocated entirely to our Digital Agreements reportable operating segment.
During 2024, the Company made the decision to discontinue its investment supporting the previously acquired blockchain technology and related commercial efforts. As a result, the Company wrote-off the related acquired technology and previously capitalized software. See Note 9, Property and Equipment, net, Note 8, Intangible Assets, net, and Note 19, Restructuring and Other Related Charges for further information.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company determined the purchase price allocation of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed which is shown in the table below.

Amortization expense was $2.6 million, $2.8 million, and $4.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. Amortization expense includes cost of sales amortization expense directly related to delivering cloud subscription revenue of $0.2 million, $0.4 million, and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. Costs are recorded in "Services and other cost of goods sold" on the consolidated statements of operations.
Certain intangible assets are denominated in local currencies and are subject to currency fluctuations.
In connection with the continued execution of cost reductions, during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company decided to stop any incremental development investments supporting its previously acquired blockchain technology and related commercial efforts (see Note 19, Restructuring and Other Related Charges). This asset contributed no revenue as it was still in its investment stage. As a result, the Company wrote-off $0.8 million associated with the remaining unamortized value of this intangible asset in "Services and other cost of goods sold" on the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company performed an impairment review of the customer relationships intangible assets obtained in its 2018 acquisition of Dealflo Limited (“Dealflo”). The impairment review was triggered by the Company’s July 2022 notification to customers regarding its intent to gradually sunset its Dealflo solution in the months leading up to December 31, 2023. As a result, substantially all Dealflo solution customer contracts terminated on or before December 31, 2023. The results of the impairment review indicated that the carrying value of the Dealflo customer relationships exceeded the fair value, and the Company recorded a $3.8 million impairment charge on the entire remaining value of the asset during the year ended December 31, 2022. The charge is included in “Restructuring and
F-23

other related charges” on the consolidated statements of operations and is included in "Operating income" of the Security Solutions reportable operating segment.
There were no additional write-offs or impairments of intangible assets recorded during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.

Costs are recorded in "Services and other cost of goods sold" on the consolidated statements of operations.
In connection with the continued execution of cost reductions, the Company decided to stop any incremental development investments supporting its previous acquired blockchain technology and related commercial efforts. As a result, the Company wrote-off the internal capitalized software used to build out connection points for its blockchain technology and its e-signature product (see Note 19, Restructuring and Other Related Charges). The total write-off amounted to $1.0 million within property and equipment, net, of which $0.7 million was recognized in "Services and other cost of goods sold" on the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024. The remaining write-off amount of $0.3 million was recognized in "Restructuring and other related charges" on the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Note 10 – Fair Value Measurements
The fair values of cash equivalents, accounts receivables, and accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts due to their short duration. The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing base upon its own market assumptions.
The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined by using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies, as defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:
•Level 1 – Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•Level 2 – Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data.
•Level 3 – Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.
The following tables summarize the Company’s financial assets by level in the fair value hierarchy, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as of December 31, 2024 and 2023:

|  |  | Fair Value Measurement at Reporting Date Using

The Company classifies its investments in debt securities as available-for-sale. The Company reviews available-for-sale debt securities for impairments related to losses and other factors each quarter. The unrealized gains and losses on the available-for-sale debt securities were not material as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company did not have any financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.
The Company’s non-financial assets and liabilities, which include goodwill and long-lived assets held and used, are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur, or if an
F-25

annual impairment test is required, the Company would evaluate the non-financial assets and liabilities for impairment. If an impairment was to occur, the asset or liability would be recorded at its estimated fair value.

Note 12 – Leases
The Company leases certain real estate and automobiles, which are classified as operating leases. The real estate leases have remaining lease terms of two to nine years. Automobile leases have a remaining lease term of one to five years.
Some of the Company's leases include options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease from one to five years. The exercise of a lease renewal option typically occurs at the discretion of both parties. Certain leases include options to purchase the leased property at fair value. For purposes of calculating operating lease liabilities, lease terms are deemed not to include options to extend the lease termination until it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.

The Company's release of the valuation allowance for the year ended December 31, 2024 was partly due to the IP transfer discussed below and the Company's reassessment of its deferred tax assets that are more likely than not to be realized. The Company determined that there is sufficient positive evidence, including recent cumulative pretax income, that the Company will generate significant income in the future. Based on the review of this evidence, the Company determined that it is more likely than not deferred tax assets are realizable and therefore released a portion of the valuation allowance during the year.
During 2024, the Company completed an intra-entity asset transfer of certain intellectual property (“IP Transfer”) to the U.S., which was classified as an arm’s length transaction at fair value pursuant to the asset transfer agreement. The fair value of the IP asset was a non-recurring fair value measurement. With the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist, the fair value of the IP was determined using the income method,which reflects the Company's assumptions regarding projected revenue, earnings before interest and taxes and a discount rate. The assumptions used in the estimation of the IP asset involved Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. The tax deduction amortization related to the IP asset will be recognized in future periods over the next fifteen years.
The transaction resulted in a step-up of tax-deductible basis driven by the fair value of the IP Transfer, and accordingly, created a temporary difference where the tax basis exceeded the financial statement basis of such intangible asset, which resulted in the recognition of a discrete tax benefit of $3.7 million. The tax-deductible amortization related to the transferred IP rights will be recognized in future periods. The deferred tax asset and the tax benefit were measured based on the enacted tax rates expected to apply in the years the asset is expected to be realized. The Company expects to realize the deferred tax asset resulting from the IP Transfer and will assess the realizability of the deferred tax asset quarterly.
The Company recorded an income tax benefit related to a worthless stock deduction for the Company’s investment in one of its wholly owned subsidiaries. The worthless stock deduction was $60.2 million, resulting in an estimated tax benefit of $12.6 million.
In addition, the Company received a favorable response in connection with its Mutual Agreement Procedure ("MAP") request related to a Belgium audit concluded in 2020. The Company recorded a net tax benefit of $1.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2024 in connection with the MAP request.
The Company's policy is to record interest and penalties on income taxes as income tax expense. It recorded a benefit of $0.2 million in 2024 and expense of less than $0.1 million in 2023 and 2022.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are netted by tax jurisdiction.
The valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 was $37.2 million and $47.8 million, respectively.
The Company recorded changes in valuation allowance of $(10.5) million and $8.5 million, during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, against deferred tax assets that, based on the Company's assessment are considered not to be more likely than not to be realized. The decrease in the valuation allowance in 2024 reflects changes in management's assessment of the ability to use existing deferred tax assets, including NOLs, due to an increase in operating profit and IP Transfer.
The Company assesses the need for a valuation allowance on a regular basis, weighing all positive and negative evidence to determine whether a deferred tax asset will be fully or partially realized. In evaluating the realizability of deferred tax assets, significant pieces of negative evidence such as 3-year cumulative losses are considered. The Company also reviews reversal patterns of temporary differences to determine if the Company would have sufficient taxable income due to the reversal of temporary differences to support the realization of deferred tax assets. In 2022, the Company established a valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets in jurisdictions that were not previously valued as the deferred tax assets were no longer more likely than not to be realized. In 2023, the Company continued to maintain a valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets in jurisdictions where assets are not more likely than not to be
F-30

realized. In 2024, the Company reversed the valuation allowance in certain jurisdictions based on an assessment of the ability to utilize the deferred tax assets. For all other remaining deferred tax assets, the Company believes it is still more likely than not that the results of future operations or tax planning strategies will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets.
At December 31, 2024, the Company had foreign and state net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards and other foreign deductible carryforwards as shown in the following table:

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in many state and foreign jurisdictions, and is subject to examination of its income tax returns by the IRS and other tax authorities. The Company reduced an uncertain tax position in the U.S. upon filing of an accounting method change and receiving audit protection.
The Company believes that an adequate provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations. However, the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company's tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with the Company's expectations, there could be a requirement to adjust the provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs. There are no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2024 that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.

Note 14 – Share Compensation Plans
The Company has a share-based compensation plan, the OneSpan Inc. 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Plan”), under which the Board of Directors may grant share-based awards including restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance restricted stock units (PSUs).
The Plan may provide performance incentives to employees and non-employee directors, consultants and other key persons of the Company. The plan is administered by the Compensation Committee as appointed by the Board of Directors and is intended to be a non-qualified plan.
As of December 31, 2024, the remaining number of shares allowed to be issued under the Plan was approximately 1.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock, representing 3% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company as of such date.
The following table presents share-based compensation expense and other long-term incentive plan compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022.

| Years Ended December 31,
(In thousands) | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Share-based compensation | $ | 8,955 |  |  | $ | 14,252 |  |  | $ | 8,642 |

Time-Based Restricted Stock Awards
Non-forfeited time-based restricted stock awards granted to certain executive officers and other employees under the VASCO Data Security International, Inc. 2009 Equity Plan became fully vested during the year ended December 31, 2022. Certain shares became subject to forfeiture when the service requirement was not met. No awards were outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and, therefore, there was no compensation expense, no tax benefit or any time-based restricted stock activity for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. Compensation expense and related tax benefit were both less than $0.1 million for 2022.
There was no unamortized future compensation expense for time-based restricted stock awards at December 31, 2024.

Note 15 – Earnings per Common Share
Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding and excludes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding and includes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents to the extent they are not anti-dilutive. Because the Company was in a net loss position for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, diluted net loss per share for these periods exclude the effects of all common stock equivalents, which are anti-dilutive.
A reconciliation of the shares included in the basic and fully diluted earnings per share calculations is as follows:

Note 16 – Employee Benefit Plans
U.S. Plan
The Company maintains a defined contribution pension plan for U.S. employees established pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The plan allows voluntary employee contributions and discretionary employer contributions. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, the Company expensed contributions of $0.2 million, $0.6 million, and $0.5 million, respectively.
Non-U.S. Plans
The Company is subject to national mandatory pension systems and other compulsory plans, or makes contributions to social pension funds based on local regulations. When the Company's obligation is limited to the payment of the contribution into these plans or funds, the recognition of such liabilities is not required.
In addition, the Company has, in some countries, defined benefit plans consisting of final retirement salary and committed pension payments.
In Switzerland, the pension plan is a cash balance plan where contributions are expressed as a percentage of the pensionable salary. Contributions to Swiss plans are paid by the employees and the employer. The pension plan guarantees the amount accrued on the members’ savings accounts, as well as a minimum interest on those savings accounts. The plan assets are held in guaranteed investment contracts.
The Company also maintains a pension plan for Belgian employees, in compliance with Belgian law. Contributions to Belgium plans are paid by the employees and the employer. Certain features of the plans require them to be categorized as defined benefit plans under ASC 715 due to Belgian social legislation, which prescribes a minimum annual return of 1.8% on employer contributions and 1.8% for employee contributions. The plan assets are held in guaranteed investment contracts.
The Company also includes a liability related to obligations to provide retirement benefits to employees who retire from the Company’s French subsidiary, as required by law. Per French regulations, each employee is entitled to a lump sum payment upon retirement based on years of service and salary at retirement. Benefit rights vest upon the statutory retirement age of 62. The obligation recorded represents the present value of amounts the Company expects to pay.
Components of net periodic pension cost included in earnings:

Foreign exchange adjustment | (1,180) |  |  | 913 |
Benefit obligations at December 31 | $ | 16,333 |  |  | $ | 19,014 |

The decrease in benefit obligations at December 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 was primarily driven by benefits paid and the weakened Euro and Swiss Franc currencies. The increase in benefit obligations at December 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022 was primarily driven by actuarial gains and foreign exchange adjustments, the strengthened Euro and Swiss Franc currencies, offset by benefits paid.
The Company's investment policy meets the responsibility under local social legislation and aligns plan assets with liabilities, while minimizing risk. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, plan assets are invested in guaranteed investment contracts. Fair value of guaranteed investment contracts is surrender value. Fair value for the year ended December 31, 2024 was determined using Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements. Changes in plan assets are attributable to benefit payments and contributions as the Company has not actively traded assets during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Other
The accumulated benefit obligation for the plans were $15.6 million and $17.8 million as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The Company expects to pay approximately $0.6 million of contributions over the next twelve months.
The amounts reclassified out of other comprehensive income during the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 were not material.
Actuarial Assumptions
Certain actuarial assumptions such as the discount rate and the long-term rate of return on plan assets have a significant effect on the amounts reported for net periodic cost and the benefit obligation. The assumed discount rates reflect the prevailing market rates of a universe of high-quality, non-callable, corporate bonds currently available that, if the
F-36

obligation were settled at the measurement date, would provide the necessary future cash flows to pay the benefit obligation when due. In determining the long-term return on plan assets, the Company considers long-term rates of return of comparable low risk investments, such as Euro AA bonds.
The following range of assumptions between all plans were utilized in the pension calculations:

| December 31,
| 2024 |  | 2023
| (%)
Discount rates | 0.95 | - | 3.40 |  | 1.40 | - | 4.10
Inflation | 1.10 | - | 2.00 |  | 1.25 | - | 2.20

Note 18 – Commitments and Contingencies
The Company leases office space and automobiles under operating lease agreements. See Note 12, Leases, for future minimum rental payments required under non-cancelable leases.
At December 31, 2024, the Company has purchase obligations of $5.0 million for other software agreements related to the administration of the Company's business which range from 1 to 3 years.
The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings and claims incidental to the operations of its business. The Company is also subject to certain other legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business and that have not been fully adjudicated. The Company currently does not anticipate that these matters, if resolved against the Company, will have a material adverse impact on its financial results or financial condition.
The Company accrues loss contingencies when losses become probable and are reasonably estimable. If the reasonable estimate of the loss is a range and no amount within the range is a better estimate, the minimum amount of the range is recorded as a liability. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has recorded an accrual of $0.5 million for loss contingencies related to all probable losses where a reasonable estimate could be made.
The Company does not accrue for contingent losses that, in the judgment of the Company, are considered to be reasonably possible, but not probable. Although the Company intends to defend its legal matters vigorously, the ultimate outcome of these matters is uncertain. However, the Company does not expect the potential losses, if any, to have a material adverse impact on its operating results, cash flows, or financial condition. As of December 31, 2024, the Company does not have any reasonably possible losses for which an estimate can be made.
Note 19 – Restructuring and Other Related Charges
In December 2021, the Company's Board approved a restructuring plan (“Plan”) designed to advance the Company’s operating model, streamline its business, improve efficiency, and enhance its capital resources. As part of the first phase of the Plan, the Company reduced headcount by eliminating positions in certain areas of its organization. The first phase of the Plan began and was substantially completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2022. In May 2022, the Board approved additional actions related to the Plan through the year ending December 31, 2025. This second phase of the Plan consisted primarily of headcount-related reductions and was designed to achieve the same objectives as the first phase of the Plan.
On August 3, 2023, the Board approved further cost reduction actions (the "2023 Actions") to seek to drive higher levels of Adjusted EBITDA while maintaining the Company's long-term growth potential. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur restructuring charges in connection with the 2023 Actions, and anticipates that these charges will consist primarily of charges related to employee transition and severance payments, with a significantly smaller amount of charges relating to vendor contract termination and rationalization actions.
In connection with the Plan (including the 2023 Actions), the Company recorded a total of $6.0 million in restructuring charges during the year ended December 31, 2024, of which $1.6 million is recorded in "Services and other cost of goods sold" in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 and $4.4 million is recorded in “Restructuring and other related charges” in the consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2024. The Company recorded $17.3 million and $13.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, in "Restructuring and other related charges" in the consolidated statements of operations.
The main categories of charges are in the following areas:
•Employee costs – include severance, related benefits, and retention pay costs incurred as a result of eliminating positions in certain areas of the Company. For the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, severance-related costs were $4.0 million, $11.7 million, and $9.5 million, respectively. In total, there were approximately 330 employees, across multiple functions, whose positions were made redundant. The $1.3 million current portion of the restructuring liability at December 31, 2024 is included in "Accrued wages and payroll taxes" in the consolidated balance sheet and is expected to be paid within the next 12 months.
•Real estate rationalization costs – includes costs to align the real estate footprint with the Company’s needs. During 2023, the Company vacated its Chicago and former Brussels office spaces, which resulted in the abandonment and termination of the underlying leases. In August 2024, the Company finalized its early termination agreement with the Chicago office landlord to terminate and release any further obligations for either

party. As of December 31, 2024, the Company accrued contract termination fees of $0.5 million for the Chicago office, which are included in "Current lease liabilities" in the consolidated balance sheet and which was paid in January 2025. In conjunction with the abandonment of the Chicago and former Brussels office leases in 2023, the underlying right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were written off and a $0.3 million gain and $0.1 million loss, respectively, were recorded related to rent concessions and tenant improvement allowances for restructuring. The Company wrote off $0.7 million and $0.6 million of fixed assets in its Chicago and Brussels leased office space, respectively (See Note 9, Property and Equipment, net). During 2023, the Company terminated its Brussels warehouse lease, effective July 31, 2024, and incurred settlement costs associated with the lease termination.
•Product and services optimization costs – includes costs to discontinue products and services that are no longer advancing the Company's operating model. The Company made the decision to stop any incremental development investments supporting its previously acquired blockchain technology, and related commercial efforts. As a result, the Company wrote-off the related acquired technology and previously capitalized software. The Company recorded a $0.8 million write-off of intangible assets in "Services and other costs of goods sold" on the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 (see Note 8, Intangible Assets, net). For capitalized software, the Company recorded a write-off of $1.0 million of property and equipment, net, of which $0.7 million was recognized in "Services and other costs of goods sold" on the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 (see Note 9, Property and Equipment, net). The remaining write-off amount of $0.3 million was recognized in "Restructuring and other related charges" on the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024. During 2023, the Company made the decision to discontinue investments in its Digipass CX product and incurred $1.5 million of write-offs for capitalized software. The charges are recorded in "Restructuring and other related charges" on the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 (see Note 9, Property and Equipment, net).
•Vendor rationalization costs – includes costs for contractually committed services the Company is no longer utilizing. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, these costs totaled $0.2 million and $1.2 million, and are included in "Restructuring and other related charges" on the consolidated statements of operations.
•Impairment of intangibles – include impaired Dealflo customer relationships where the carrying value exceeded the fair value for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company recorded a $3.8 million impairment charge on the entire remaining value of the asset during the year ended December 31, 2022. The charge is included in “Restructuring and other related charges” on the consolidated statement of operations and is included in "Operating income" of the Security Solutions reportable operating segment (See Note 8, Intangible Assets, net).
The table below sets forth the changes in the carrying amount of the restructuring charge liability for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024.
