NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Background and Basis of Presentation

Company and Background

Chegg, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Company” or “Chegg”), headquartered in Santa Clara, California, was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in July 2005. Millions of people all around the world Learn with Chegg. Our mission is to improve learning and learning outcomes by putting students first. We support life-long learners starting with their academic journey and extending into their careers. The Chegg platform provides products and services to support learners to help them better understand their academic course materials, and also provides personal and professional development skills training, to help them achieve their learning goals.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of Chegg, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2023, our results of operations, results of comprehensive income (loss), and stockholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Our results of operations, results of comprehensive income (loss), stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

We have a single operating and reportable segment and operating unit structure. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the Annual Report on Form 10-K) filed with the SEC.

Except for our policies on strategic investments, there have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Strategic Investments

Investments in partnerships where we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Equity method investments are initially recorded at cost and adjusted for our share of the investees' earnings or losses, based on our percentage ownership, recognized on a one-quarter lag basis within other income, net on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Investments in entities where we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence and which do not have readily determinable fair values are accounted for at cost, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, if any.

Strategic investments are included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We assess our strategic investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may be impaired. The factors we consider in our evaluation include, but are not limited to, a significant deterioration in the earnings performance or business prospects of the investee or factors that raise significant concerns about the investee’s ability to continue as a going concern, such as negative cash flows from operations or working capital deficiencies.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities; the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience, knowledge of current business conditions, and various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge about current events and

Table of Contents

expectations about actions we may undertake in the future. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material to our financial position and results of operations. There have been no material changes in our use of estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the use of estimates disclosed in Part II, Item 8 “Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Reclassification of Prior Period Presentation

In order to conform with current period presentation, $0.3 million of deferred tax assets during the six months ended June 30, 2022 has been reclassified from other non-cash items on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. This change in presentation does not affect previously reported results.

Leases

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we extended our existing lease agreement related to our corporate headquarters in Santa Clara and reassessed lease terms related to office spaces internationally in India, resulting in the recording of $12.4 million of right of use assets in exchange for lease liabilities.

The aggregate future minimum lease payments and reconciliation to operating lease liabilities as of June 30, 2023, are as follows (in thousands):

Note 2. Revenues

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when control of the 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 goods or services. The majority of our revenues are recognized over time, with certain revenues being recognized at a point in time.

We have changed our revenue disaggregation to Subscription Services and Skills and Other to better reflect the nature and timing of revenue and cash flows. Subscription Services includes revenues from our Chegg Study Pack, Chegg Study, Chegg Writing, Chegg Math, and Busuu offerings. Skills and Other includes revenues from our Skills, advertising services, print textbooks and eTextbooks offerings. We no longer present our Required Materials product line separately as we no longer recognize significant revenue from our print textbook and eTextbooks offerings.

The following tables set forth our total net revenues for the periods shown disaggregated for our Subscription Services and Skills and Other product lines (in thousands, except percentages):


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Change
	2023		2022		$		%

Total net revenues	$	370,454	$	396,965	$	(26,511)	(7)

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized revenues of $41.1 million and $47.9 million, respectively, that were included in our deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each respective reporting period. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized revenues of $42.2 million and $32.9 million, respectively, that were included in our deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each respective reporting period.

Contract Balances

The following table presents our accounts receivable, net, contract assets and deferred revenue balances (in thousands, except percentages):

During the six months ended June 30, 2023 our accounts receivable, net balance decreased by $2.8 million, or 12%, primarily due to timing of billings and seasonality of our business. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, our contract assets balance decreased by $1.3 million, or 10%, primarily due to our Thinkful service. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, our deferred revenue balance decreased by $3.1 million, or 5%, primarily due to timing of bookings and seasonality of our business.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we did not recognize any losses on our investments due to credit related factors. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, our realized gains and losses on investments were not significant.

Strategic Investments

In May 2023, we entered into a $15.0 million commitment to invest in Sound Ventures AI Fund, L.P. (Sound Ventures), a limited partnership that invests in artificial intelligence companies, for an approximate 6% ownership. We accounted for our investment under the equity method of accounting. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we funded $9.6 million of our investment commitment. As part of the conditions for entering into the investment, we are contractually required to provide additional investment commitments. As of June 30, 2023, we have unfunded investment commitments of $5.4 million, which can be issued at any time within five years of the commencement of the partnership, which occurred in February 2023.

In July 2022, we completed an investment of $6.0 million in Knack Technologies, Inc. (Knack), a privately held U.S. based peer-to-peer tutoring platform for higher education institutions. We do not have the ability to exercise significant influence over Knack's operating and financial policies and have elected to account for our investment at cost as it does not have a readily determinable fair value. We did not record any impairment charges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as there were no significant identified events or changes in circumstances that would be considered an indicator for impairment. There were no observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investments of the same issuer during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

We report our financial instruments at fair value with the exception of the notes. The estimated fair value of the notes was determined based on the trading price of the notes as of the last day of trading for the period. We consider the fair value of the notes to be a Level 2 measurement due to the limited trading activity. The estimated fair value of the 2026 notes as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $312.7 million and $385.0 million, respectively. The estimated fair value of the 2025 notes as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $318.5 million and $640.5 million, respectively. For further information on the notes, refer to Note 5, “Convertible Senior Notes.”

Note 5. Convertible Senior Notes

In August 2020, we issued $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due in 2026 (2026 notes). The aggregate principal amount of the 2026 notes includes $100 million from the initial purchasers fully exercising their option to purchase additional notes. In March 2019, we issued $700 million in aggregate principal amount of 0.125% convertible senior notes due in 2025 (2025 notes, together with the 2026 notes, the notes) and in April 2019, the initial purchasers fully exercised their option to purchase $100 million of additional 2025 notes for aggregate total principal amount of $800 million. The notes were issued in private placements to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The total net proceeds from the notes are as follows (in thousands):


	2026 Notes		2025 Notes
Principal amount	$	1,000,000	$	800,000
Less initial purchasers’ discount	(15,000)		(18,998)
Less other issuance costs	(904)		(822)
Net proceeds	$	984,096	$	780,180

Table of Contents

The notes are our senior, unsecured obligations and are governed by indenture agreements by and between us and Computershare Trust Company, National Association (as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association), as Trustee (the indentures). The 2026 notes bear no interest and will mature on September 1, 2026, unless repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. The 2025 notes bear interest of 0.125% per year which is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2019. The 2025 notes will mature on March 15, 2025, unless repurchased, redeemed or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date.

Each $1,000 principal amount of the 2026 notes will initially be convertible into 9.2978 shares of our common stock. This is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $107.55 per share, which is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Each $1,000 principal amount of the 2025 notes will initially be convertible into 19.3956 shares of our common stock. This is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $51.56 per share, which is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.

Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding June 1, 2026 for the 2026 notes and December 15, 2024 for the 2025 notes, the notes are convertible at the option of holders only upon satisfaction of the following circumstances:

•during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2020 for the 2026 notes and June 30, 2019 for the 2025 notes, if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the respective conversion price for the notes on each applicable trading day;

•during the five-business day period after any 10 consecutive trading day period (the measurement period) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day;

•if we call any or all of the notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or

•upon the occurrence of certain specified corporate events described in the indentures.

On or after June 1, 2026 for the 2026 notes and December 15, 2024 for the 2025 notes until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the respective maturity dates, holders may convert their notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, the notes may be settled in shares of our common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election.

If we undergo a fundamental change, as defined in the indentures, prior to the respective maturity dates, subject to certain conditions, holders of the notes may require us to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, if specific corporate events, described in the indentures, occur prior to the respective maturity dates, we will also increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert their notes in connection with such specified corporate events.

In May 2023, in connection with our securities repurchase program, we extinguished $85.8 million and $341.1 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 notes and 2025 notes, respectively, in privately-negotiated transactions for a total consideration of $368.6 million, which was paid to the holders in cash. We also incurred approximately $1.2 million in fees resulting in a total reacquisition price of $369.8 million. The carrying amount of the extinguished notes was $423.5 million resulting in a $53.8 million gain on early extinguishment of debt. We elected to reacquire and not cancel the extinguished 2026 notes and the 2025 notes were canceled with the trustee. Additionally, we terminated 2025 notes capped call transactions underlying 6,615,161 shares of our common stock and received aggregate cash proceeds of $0.3 million. As of June 30, 2023, we had 9,297,800 and 6,961,352 shares remaining underlying the 2026 notes and 2025 notes, respectively.

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the conditions allowing holders of the 2026 notes and 2025 notes to convert were not met and therefore the 2026 notes and 2025 notes are not convertible the following quarter.

Capped Call Transactions

Concurrently with the offering of the 2026 notes and 2025 notes, we used $103.4 million and $97.2 million, respectively, of the net proceeds to enter into privately negotiated capped call transactions which are expected to reduce or offset potential dilution to holders of our common stock upon conversion of the notes or offset the potential cash payments we would be required to make in excess of the principal amount of any converted notes. The capped call transactions automatically exercise upon conversion of the notes and as of June 30, 2023, cover 9,297,800 and 6,961,352 shares of our common stock for the 2026 notes and 2025 notes, respectively. These are intended to effectively increase the overall conversion price from $107.55 to $156.44 per share for the 2026 notes and $51.56 to $79.32 per share for the 2025 notes. The effective increase in conversion price as a result of the capped call transactions serves to reduce potential dilution to holders of our common stock and/or offset the cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of any converted notes. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, they are recorded in stockholders’ equity as a reduction of additional paid-in capital on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and are not accounted for as derivatives. The fair value of the capped call instrument is not remeasured each reporting period. The cost of the capped call is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies

We may from time to time be subject to certain legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business, including claims of alleged infringement of trademarks, patents, copyrights, and other intellectual property rights; employment claims; and general contract or other claims. We may also, from time to time, be subject to various legal or government claims, demands, disputes, investigations, or requests for information. Such matters may include, but not be limited to, claims, disputes, or investigations related to warranty, refund, breach of contract, employment, intellectual property, government regulation, or compliance or other matters.

Aside from the loss contingency accrual recorded related to the Frank matter, we have not recorded any additional loss contingency accruals related to the above matters as we do not believe that a loss is probable in these matters. We are not aware of any other pending legal matters or claims, individually or in the aggregate, that are expected to have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, our analysis of whether a claim will proceed to litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, nor can the results of litigation be predicted with certainty. Nevertheless, defending any of these actions, regardless of the outcome, may be costly, time consuming, distract management personnel and have a negative effect on our business. An adverse outcome in any of these actions, including a judgment or settlement, may cause a material adverse effect on our future business, operating results and/or financial condition.

Note 7. Guarantees and Indemnifications

We have agreed to indemnify our directors and officers for certain events or occurrences, subject to certain limits, while such persons are or were serving at our request in such capacity. We may terminate the indemnification agreements with these persons upon termination of employment, but termination will not affect claims for indemnification related to events occurring prior to the effective date of termination. We have a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy that limits our potential exposure up to the limits of our insurance coverage. In addition, we also have other indemnification agreements with various vendors against certain claims, liabilities, losses, and damages. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited.

We believe the fair value of these indemnification agreements is immaterial. We have not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of June 30, 2023.

Note 8. Common Stock

We are authorized to issue 400 million shares of our common stock, with a par value per share of $0.001. As of June 30, 2023, we have reserved the following shares of our common stock for future issuance:


			June 30, 2023

Outstanding stock options			257,542
Outstanding RSUs and PSUs			11,162,669
Shares available for grant under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan			12,070,617

Total common shares reserved for future issuance			27,490,828

Stock Plans

2023 Equity Incentive Plan

On April 7, 2023, our Board of Directors adopted our 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 EIP”), which was subsequently approved by our stockholders and became effective on June 7, 2023, replacing our 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”). On the effective date of the 2023 EIP, 12,000,000 shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance under the 2023 EIP. On June 6, 2023, the date on which the 2013 Plan expired, all remaining shares available for grant under the 2013 Plan were cancelled, and we will not make any additional grants under the 2013 Plan. In addition, any shares subject to awards, including shares subject to awards granted under the 2013 Plan that were outstanding on June 7, 2023, that are cancelled, forfeited, repurchased, expire by their terms without shares being issued, are used to pay the exercise price of an option or stock appreciation right or withheld to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to any award, will be returned to the pool of shares available for grant and issuance under the 2023 Plan. As of June 30, 2023, there were 12,070,617 shares available for grant under the 2023 EIP. The 2023 EIP permits the granting of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, RSUs, restricted stock awards, stock bonus awards, stock appreciation rights and performance awards. The 2023 EIP terminates on April 7, 2033.

Amended and Restated 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On April 7, 2023, our Board of Directors adopted our Amended and Restated 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “A&R ESPP”), which was subsequently approved by our stockholders and became effective on June 7, 2023. The A&R ESPP permits eligible employees to purchase shares of our common stock by accumulating funds through periodic payroll deductions.

Table of Contents

The A&R ESPP is intended to qualify as an "employee stock purchase plan" under Section 423 of the Code. Under the A&R ESPP, eligible employees will be granted an option to purchase shares of our common stock at a 15% discount to the lesser of the fair market value of our common stock on (i) the first trading day of the applicable offering period or (ii) the last day of each purchase period in the applicable offering period. The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors shall determine the duration and commencement date of each offering period, provided that an offering period shall in no event be longer than twenty-seven (27) months, except as otherwise provided by an applicable sub-plan. Upon approval of the A&R ESPP, the available share pool under our existing 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan was reduced, and we have reserved 4,000,000 shares of our common stock under the A&R ESPP. As of June 30, 2023, there were 4,000,000 shares of common stock available for future issuance under the A&R ESPP.

Note 9. Stockholders' Equity

Share Repurchases

In June 2023, we repurchased 3,433,157 shares of our common stock in open market transactions for $34.5 million.

In February 2023, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase (ASR) agreement with a financial institution (2023 ASR). We accounted for the 2023 ASR as two separate transactions, a repurchase of our common stock and an equity-linked contract indexed to our common stock that met certain accounting criteria for classification in stockholders' equity. Upon execution, we paid a fixed amount of $150.0 million and received an initial delivery of 7,599,747 shares of our common stock, which were retired immediately. The initial delivery of shares of our common stock represented approximately 80 percent of the fixed amount paid of $150.0 million, which was based on the share price of our common stock on the date of execution. The 2023 ASR, along with $1.9 million in associated costs, primarily consisting of an estimated 1% excise tax, were recorded as a reduction to additional paid in capital on our condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity. The 2023 ASR settled during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and we received an additional delivery of 1,974,762 shares of our common stock, which were retired immediately. The 2023 ASR resulted in a total repurchase of 9,574,509 shares of our common stock at a volume-weighted-average price, less an agreed upon discount, of $15.67 per share. We were not required to make any additional cash payments or delivery of common stock to the financial institution upon settlement.

In February 2022 and December 2021, we entered into ASR agreements with financial institutions. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we received a total of 11,562,475 shares of our common stock from these ASR agreements, which were retired immediately. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2022, we repurchased 1,146,803 shares of our common stock in open market transactions.

Securities Repurchase Program

As of December 31, 2022, we had $642.6 million remaining under the securities repurchase program. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we repurchased shares of our common stock for $184.5 million and a portion of our notes for $368.6 million. As of June 30, 2023, we had $89.4 million remaining under the securities repurchase program, which has no expiration date and will continue until otherwise suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason by our board of directors.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we capitalized share-based compensation expense of $0.7 million and $1.7 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we capitalized share-based compensation expense of $2.3 million and $4.1 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense was approximately $204.8 million, which is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted-average vesting period of approximately 2.1 years.

Note 10. Restructuring

In June 2023, we announced a reduction in workforce to better position the Company to execute against its AI strategy and to create long-term, sustainable value for its students and investors. This resulted in a management approved restructuring plan that impacted approximately 90 employees primarily in the United States. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded restructuring charges of $5.7 million related to one-time employee termination benefits classified on our condensed consolidated statements of operations based on the employees' job function. As of June 30, 2023, $2.0 million in payments have been made and the $3.7 million liability is included within accrued liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The total cost of the restructuring plan has been recorded and we expect it to be completed by the end of fiscal 2023. We expect cost savings from the restructuring plan to be reinvested in future growth opportunities.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements (unaudited)” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition to historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. See the section titled “Note about Forward-Looking Statements” for additional information. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Millions of people all around the world Learn with Chegg. Our mission is to improve learning and learning outcomes by putting students first. We support life-long learners starting with their academic journey and extending into their careers. The Chegg platform provides products and services to support learners to help them better understand their academic course materials, and also provides personal and professional development skills training, to help them achieve their learning goals.

Our long-term strategy is centered upon our ability to utilize Subscription Services to increase student engagement with our learning platform. We continue to invest in the expansion of our offerings and technology platform to provide a more compelling and personalized solution and deepen engagement with students. More recently, we have rapidly realigned our resources around our artificial intelligence efforts, including developing the large language models required for our students to have a fully generative, conversational experience. In addition, we believe these investments will allow us to sustain profitability and remain cash-flow positive in the long-term. Our ability to achieve these long-term objectives is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties including our ability to attract, retain, and increasingly engage the student population, reduced traffic to our services, and other factors, such as the rapidly changing development of artificial intelligence technologies and global macroeconomic conditions, which continue to evolve and affect our business and results of operations. Student interest in and usage of artificial intelligence technologies have increased, which we believe has and may continue to negatively impact the number of subscriber acquisitions. As a result, we are experiencing an adverse effect on our operating results, growth and financial condition, which may continue. These risks and uncertainties are described in greater detail in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we generated net revenues of $182.9 million and $370.5 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we generated net revenues of $194.7 million and $397.0 million, respectively.

We have changed our revenue disaggregation to Subscription Services and Skills and Other to better reflect the nature and timing of revenue and cash flows. Subscription Services includes revenues from our Chegg Study Pack, Chegg Study, Chegg Writing, Chegg Math, and Busuu offerings. Skills and Other includes revenues from our Skills, advertising services, print textbooks and eTextbooks offerings. We no longer present our Required Materials product line separately as we no longer expect to have significant revenue from our print textbook and eTextbooks offerings.

We have presented revenues for our two product lines, Subscription Services and Skills and Other, based on how students view us and the utilization of our products by them. More detail on our two product lines is discussed in the next two sections titled “Subscription Services” and “Skills and Other.”

Subscription Services

Our Subscription Services can be accessed internationally through our websites and on mobile devices and include Chegg Study Pack, Chegg Study, Chegg Writing, Chegg Math, and Busuu and students typically pay to access our Subscription Services on a monthly basis. Revenues from our Subscription Services are primarily recognized ratably over the monthly subscription period whereas the number of subscribers are determined as those who have paid to access our services at any time during the period. Changes in revenues are primarily related to changes in subscribers however they may not necessarily coincide as a result of timing. Our Chegg Study subscription service provides “Expert Questions and Answers” and step-by-step “Textbook Solutions,” helping students with their course work. When students need writing help, including plagiarism detection scans and creating citations for their papers, they can use our Chegg Writing subscription service. Our Chegg Math subscription service, including Mathway, helps students understand math by providing a step-by-step math solver and calculator. We also offer our Chegg Study Pack as a premium subscription bundle of our Chegg Study, Chegg Writing, and Chegg Math services, which also includes additional features such as flashcards, concept videos, practice questions and quizzes,

Table of Contents

and instructor-created materials through Uversity. Our Busuu language learning platform offers a comprehensive solution through a combination of self-paced lessons, live classes with expert tutors and the ability to learn and practice with members of the Busuu language learning community.

In the aggregate, Subscription Services revenues were 91% and 90% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to 90% and 88% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Skills and Other

Our Skills and Other product line includes revenues from Skills, advertising services, print textbooks and eTextbooks. Our skills-based learning platform offers professional courses focused on the most in-demand technology skills. We work with leading brands and programmatic partners to deliver advertising across our platforms. We also provide a platform for students to rent or buy print textbooks and eTextbooks, which helps students save money compared to the cost of buying new.

In the aggregate, Skills and Other revenues were 9% and 10% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to 10% and 12% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Seasonality of Our Business

Revenues from Subscription Services are primarily recognized ratably over the subscription term which has generally resulted in our highest revenues and profitability in the fourth quarter as it reflects more days of the academic year. Certain variable expenses, such as marketing expenses, remain highest in the first and third quarters such that our profitability may not provide meaningful insight on a sequential basis. As a result of these factors, the most concentrated periods for our revenues and expenses do not necessarily coincide, and comparisons of our historical quarterly results of operations on a sequential basis may not provide meaningful insight into our overall financial performance.

Subscription Services revenues decreased $9.6 million, or 5%, and $14.2 million, or 4%, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a 9% and 5% decrease in subscribers who have paid to access our services during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2022. Subscription Services revenues were 91% and 90% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to 90% and 88% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Skills and Other revenues decreased $2.3 million, or 12%, and $12.3 million, or 25%, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower revenues from print textbooks and eTextbooks as a result of recognizing revenue on a net basis from our partnership with GT Marketplace, LLC that began in April 2022 of $4.9 million and $19.2 million, respectively. Skills and Other revenues were 9% and 10% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to 10% and 12% of net revenues during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Cost of revenues increased $1.7 million, or 4%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher other depreciation and amortization expense of $4.9 million, partially offset by the absence of transitional logistic charges of $1.2 million. Gross margins decreased to 74% during the three months ended June 30, 2023, from 77% during the same period in 2022.

Table of Contents

Cost of revenues decreased $4.2 million, or 4%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to the absence of print textbook and eTextbook related costs of $9.5 million, lower transitional logistic charges of $1.3 million, and lower employee-related expenses, including share-based compensation expense, of $1.3 million partially offset by higher other depreciation and amortization expense of $10.2 million.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased $0.4 million, or 1%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, primarily attributable to restructuring charges of $1.7 million. Research and development expenses as a percentage of net revenues were 29% during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 27% during the same period in 2022.

Research and development expenses decreased $5.1 million, or 5%, during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower employee-related expenses, including share-based compensation expense, of $2.1 million, and lower contractor spend of $1.0 million, partially offset by restructuring charges of $1.7 million. Research and development expenses as a percentage of net revenues were 27% during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased $16.4 million, or 30%, during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher employee-related expenses, including share-based compensation expense, of $10.6 million, a loss contingency accrual of $7.0 million, and restructuring charges of $2.8 million, which was partially offset by the absence of the impairment on lease related assets of $3.4 million.

Interest expense, net decreased $0.5 million, or 31%, and $0.8 million, or 26%, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in 2022, primarily due to the partial extinguishment of the 2026 notes in August 2022.

Other income, net increased $62.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to a $53.8 million gain on early extinguishment of a portion of the 2026 notes and 2025 notes and an increase in interest income of $8.6 million. Other income, net increased $68.2 million, during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to a $53.8 million gain on early extinguishment of a portion of the

Provision for income taxes increased $19.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to the absence of a valuation allowance benefit as a result of releasing our valuation allowance against a substantial amount of our U.S. deferred tax assets in 2022.

Provision for income taxes increased $19.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to the absence of a valuation allowance benefit as a result of releasing our valuation allowance against a substantial amount of our U.S. deferred tax assets in 2022 partially offset by the benefit of releasing uncertain tax positions in India.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2023, our principal sources of liquidity were cash, cash equivalents, and investments totaling $807.8 million, which were held for working capital purposes. The substantial majority of our net revenues are from e-commerce transactions with students, which are settled immediately through payment processors, as opposed to our accounts payable, which are settled based on contractual payment terms with our suppliers.

In June 2022, our board of directors approved a $1.0 billion increase to our existing securities repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $2.0 billion of our common stock and/or convertible notes, through open market purchases, block trades, and/or privately negotiated transactions or pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans, in compliance with applicable securities laws and other legal requirements. The timing, volume, and nature of the repurchases will be determined by management based on the capital needs of the business, market conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other factors. We have entered into accelerated share repurchase programs with financial institutions for $750.0 million, repurchased shares in open market transactions for $57.6 million and repurchased our convertible senior notes in privately-negotiated transactions for aggregate consideration of $1,103.0 million. As of June 30, 2023, we had $89.4 million remaining under the securities repurchase program, which has no expiration date and will continue until otherwise suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason by our board of directors.

In February 2021, we completed an equity offering in which we raised net proceeds of $1,091.5 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses (2021 equity offering). In August 2020 and March/April 2019, we closed offerings of our 2026 notes and 2025 notes, generating net proceeds of approximately $984.1 million and $780.2 million, respectively, in each case after deducting the initial purchasers’ discount and estimated offering expenses payable by us. The 2026 notes and 2025 notes mature on September 1, 2026 and March 15, 2025, respectively, unless converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms prior to such dates.

As of June 30, 2023, we have incurred cumulative losses of $43.8 million from our operations and we may incur additional losses in the future. Our operations have been financed primarily by equity and convertible senior notes offerings as well as cash generated from operations.

Aside from the changes in operating lease obligations and unfunded commitments as disclosed in Note 1, “Background and Basis of Presentation,” and Note 4, “Cash and Cash Equivalents, Investments and Fair Value Measurements,” respectively,

Table of Contents

of our accompanying Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements (Unaudited)” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there were no other material changes in our commitments under contractual obligations, as disclosed in Part II, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

We believe that our existing sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund our operations and debt service obligations for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, our investments in research and development activities, our acquisition of new products and services, and our sales and marketing activities. To the extent that existing cash and cash from operations are insufficient to fund our future activities, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing. Additional funds may not be available on terms favorable to us or at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, or at all, we may be unable to adequately fund our business plans and it could have a negative effect on our business, operating cash flows and financial condition.

Most of our cash, cash equivalents, and investments are held in the United States. As of June 30, 2023, our foreign subsidiaries held an insignificant amount of cash in foreign jurisdictions. We currently do not intend or foresee a need to repatriate these foreign funds; however, as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, we anticipate the U.S. federal impact to be minimal if these foreign funds are repatriated. In addition, based on our current and future needs, we believe our current funding and capital resources for our international operations are adequate.

The following table sets forth our cash flows (in thousands):


	Six Months Ended June 30,

Critical Accounting Policies, Significant Judgments and Estimates

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. These estimates form the basis for judgments we make about the carrying values of our assets and liabilities, which are not readily apparent from other sources. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in Part II, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in our market risk during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the disclosures in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report.

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Based on management’s evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to, and are effective to, provide assurance at a reasonable level that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

(b)Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Such matters may include, but not be limited to, claims, disputes, or investigations related to warranty, refund, breach of contract, employment, intellectual property, government regulation, or compliance or other matters. On March 1, 2023, Plaintiff Shiva Stein, derivatively on behalf of Chegg, filed a stockholder derivative complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (Case No. 2023-0244-NAC) asserting breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and waste of corporate asset claims against members of Chegg’s Board and certain Chegg officers. The matter is stayed. The Company disputes these claims and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter. On February 14, 2023, Plaintiff Brian Stansell, individually and on behalf of other similarly situated stockholders of Chegg, filed a putative class action complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (Case No. 2023-0180) on behalf of all Chegg stockholders who were eligible to vote at Chegg's 2022 Annual Stockholders' Meeting, asserting breach of fiduciary duty claims against the members of Chegg's Board.

On December 27, 2022, Plaintiff Sheri Moyer, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, filed a putative consumer class action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (Case No. 22-cv-09123) on behalf of all purchasers of a Chegg product or service as part of an automatic renewal plan or continuous service offer within the past four years. On July 25, 2023, the Company received an order granting its motion to compel arbitration, and the case will be stayed pending arbitration.

(JPMC) asserted a demand for repayment by the Company of certain investment proceeds received by the Company in its capacity as an investor in TAPD, Inc. (more commonly known as “Frank”). JPMC seeks such repayment pursuant to certain provisions in the existing Support Agreement between JPMC and the Company that was entered into in connection with JPMC's acquisition of Frank. JPMC has alleged fraud on the part of certain former Frank executives regarding the quantity and quality of its customer accounts. The Company is not at fault however is pursuing a settlement agreement with JPMC. As of June 30, 2023, a loss is probable and reasonably estimable, therefore we have recognized an estimated loss contingency accrual of $7.0 million within general and administrative expense on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. On November 9, 2022, Plaintiff Joshua Keller, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, filed a putative class action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (Case No. 22-cv-06986) on behalf of individuals whose data was allegedly impacted by past data breaches. The Company disputes these claims and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter. On March 30, 2022, Joseph Robinson, derivatively on behalf of Chegg, filed a shareholder derivative complaint against Chegg and certain of its current and former directors and officers in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging violations of securities laws and breaches of fiduciary duties. On February 22, 2023, Plaintiff filed an Amended Shareholder Derivative Complaint. This matter has been consolidated with Choi, below, and both matters are stayed. The Company disputes these claims and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter. On January 12, 2022, Rak Joon Choi, derivatively on behalf of Chegg, filed a shareholder derivative complaint against Chegg and certain of its current and former directors and officers in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging violations of securities laws, breaches of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets. On February 22, 2023, Plaintiff filed an Amended Shareholder Derivative Complaint. This matter has been consolidated with Robinson, above, and both matters are stayed. The Company disputes these claims and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter. On December 22, 2021, Steven Leventhal, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated, filed a purported securities fraud class action on behalf of all purchasers of Chegg common stock between May 5, 2020 and November 1, 2021, inclusive, against Chegg and certain of its current and former officers in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (Case No. 5:21-cv-09953), alleging that Chegg and several of its officers made materially false and misleading statements in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On September 7, 2022, KBC Asset Management and The Pompano Beach Police & Firefighters Retirement System were appointed as lead plaintiff in the case. On December 8, 2022, Plaintiff filed his Amended Complaint and seeks unspecified compensatory damages, costs, and expenses, including counsel and expert fees. The Company disputes these claims and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter. On September 13, 2021, Pearson Education, Inc. (Pearson) filed a complaint captioned Pearson Education, Inc. v. Chegg, Inc. (Pearson Complaint) in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey against the Company (Case 2:21-cv-16866), alleging infringement of Pearson’s registered copyrights and exclusive rights under copyright in violation of the United States Copyright Act. Pearson is seeking injunctive relief, monetary damages, costs, and attorneys’ fees. The Company filed its answer to the Pearson Complaint on November 19, 2021. Pearson’s June 29, 2022 Motion for Leave to File Amended Complaint seeking to add Bedford, Freeman & Worth Publishing Group, LLC d/b/a Macmillan Learning as a plaintiff was denied. Pearson filed an Amended Complaint on May 10, 2023, and the Company filed an amended answer on June 7, 2023. The Company disputes these claims and intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter. On June 18, 2020, we received a Civil Investigative Demand (CID) from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regarding certain alleged deceptive or unfair acts or practices related to consumer privacy and/or data security. On October 31, 2022, the FTC published the parties’ agreed-upon consent order regarding Chegg’s privacy and data security practices. On January 27, 2023, the FTC finalized its order ("Final Order") requiring Chegg to implement a comprehensive information security program, limit the data the Company can collect and retain, offer users multi factor authentication to secure their accounts, and allow users to request access to and delete their data. No monetary penalties or fines were included in the Final Order. Aside from the loss contingency accrual recorded related to the Frank matter, we have not recorded any additional loss contingency accruals related to the above matters as we do not believe that a loss is probable in these matters. We are not aware of any other pending legal matters or claims, individually or in the aggregate, that are expected to have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, our analysis of whether a claim will proceed to litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, nor can the results of litigation be predicted with certainty. Nevertheless, defending any of these actions, regardless of the outcome, may be costly, time consuming, distract management personnel and have a negative effect on our business. An adverse outcome in any of these actions, including a judgment or settlement, may cause a material adverse effect on our future business, operating results and/or financial condition.

Guarantees And Indemnifications [Abstract]
Guarantees and Indemnifications	Guarantees and Indemnifications We have agreed to indemnify our directors and officers for certain events or occurrences, subject to certain limits, while such persons are or were serving at our request in such capacity. We may terminate the indemnification agreements with these persons upon termination of employment, but termination will not affect claims for indemnification related to events occurring prior to the effective date of termination. We have a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy that limits our potential exposure up to the limits of our insurance coverage. In addition, we also have other indemnification agreements with various vendors against certain claims, liabilities, losses, and damages. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited. We believe the fair value of these indemnification agreements is immaterial. We have not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of June 30, 2023.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]
Restructuring	RestructuringIn June 2023, we announced a reduction in workforce to better position the Company to execute against its AI strategy and to create long-term, sustainable value for its students and investors. This resulted in a management approved restructuring plan that impacted approximately 90 employees primarily in the United States. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded restructuring charges of $5.7 million related to one-time employee termination benefits classified on our condensed consolidated statements of operations based on the employees' job function. As of June 30, 2023, $2.0 million in payments have been made and the $3.7 million liability is included within accrued liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The total cost of the restructuring plan has been recorded and we expect it to be completed by the end of fiscal 2023. We expect cost savings from the restructuring plan to be reinvested in future growth opportunities.

Background and Basis of Presentation (Policies)	6 Months Ended
Background and Basis of Presentation (Policies)	Jun. 30, 2023
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of Chegg, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2023, our results of operations, results of comprehensive income (loss), and stockholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Our results of operations, results of comprehensive income (loss), stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. We have a single operating and reportable segment and operating unit structure. The condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the Annual Report on Form 10-K) filed with the SEC. Except for our policies on strategic investments, there have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Strategic Investments	Strategic Investments Investments in partnerships where we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Equity method investments are initially recorded at cost and adjusted for our share of the investees' earnings or losses, based on our percentage ownership, recognized on a one-quarter lag basis within other income, net on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Investments in entities where we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence and which do not have readily determinable fair values are accounted for at cost, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, if any. Strategic investments are included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We assess our strategic investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may be impaired. The factors we consider in our evaluation include, but are not limited to, a significant deterioration in the earnings performance or business prospects of the investee or factors that raise significant concerns about the investee’s ability to continue as a going concern, such as negative cash flows from operations or working capital deficiencies.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities; the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience, knowledge of current business conditions, and various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates are based on management’s knowledge about current events and expectations about actions we may undertake in the future. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and such differences could be material to our financial position and results of operations.
Reclassification of Prior Period Presentation	Reclassification of Prior Period Presentation In order to conform with current period presentation, $0.3 million of deferred tax assets during the six months ended June 30, 2022 has been reclassified from other non-cash items on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. This change in presentation does not affect previously reported results.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted There were no accounting pronouncements issued during the six months ended June 30, 2023 that would have a material impact on our financial statements. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements We did not adopt any accounting pronouncements during the six months ended June 30, 2023 that had a material impact on our financial statements.
