Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

As of January 29, 2024, BigCommerce Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) expects that its financial results for the three months ended December 31, 2023 will exceed the high ends of the ranges of revenue and non-GAAP operating income provided on the earnings call discussing the Company’s third quarter financial results held on November 8, 2023, with corresponding improved financial performance relative to the ranges presented for revenue and non-GAAP operating loss for the full year 2023. The Company’s financial statements for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023 are preliminary at this time and the information set forth above is subject to change until the Company files its annual report on Form 10-K. Further details with respect to fourth quarter 2023 and full year 2023 results will be discussed in the Company’s next earnings call scheduled for Thursday, February 22, 2024.

The information contained in this Item 2.02 of the Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On January 23, 2024, Steven Chung, the President of the Company, informed the Company that he will be stepping down from his position as President effective as of February 16, 2024. Mr. Chung’s resignation is a result of his decision to relocate internationally for personal and professional reasons. The Company thanks Mr. Chung for his contributions, including his leadership in the Company’s recent restructuring to combine Sales, Marketing and Customer Success in one go-to-market organization intended to drive continued profitable growth and net revenue retention.

Effective as of February 16, 2024, Brent Bellm, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, will be fulfilling the role of President on an interim basis, until a successor for Mr. Chung has been identified.

The Company has commenced a national search for a new President.
