Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

Company Overview - Progress Software Corporation ("Progress," the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") provides enterprise software products for the development, deployment and management of responsible, AI-powered applications and experiences.

Our products are generally sold as perpetual licenses, but certain products also use term licensing models and our cloud-based offerings use a subscription-based model. More than half of our worldwide license revenue is realized through relationships with indirect channel partners, principally independent software vendors, original equipment manufacturers, distributors and value-added resellers. Independent software vendors develop and market applications using our technology and resell our products in conjunction with sales of their own products that incorporate our technology. Original equipment manufacturers are companies that embed our products into their own software products or devices. Value-added resellers are companies that add features or services to our product, then resell it as an integrated product or complete "turn-key" solution.

We operate in North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa ("EMEA"), and Asia and Australia ("Asia Pacific"), through local subsidiaries as well as independent distributors.

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies - We prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete financial statements and these unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2023, as filed with the SEC on January 26, 2024 (our "2023 Annual Report").

We made no material changes in the application of our significant accounting policies that were disclosed in our 2023 Annual Report. We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as the audited financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report, and these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and records changes in estimates in the period in which they become known. These estimates are based on historical data and experience, as well as various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates relate to revenue recognition, loss contingencies and the MOVEit Vulnerability, and business combinations. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The amendments in this update expand segment disclosure requirements, including new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment among other disclosure requirements. This update is effective for the Company in the consolidated financial statements for the year ending November 30, 2025, and interim periods beginning after December 1, 2025. The adoption of this standard only impacts disclosures and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 is intended to improve the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company beginning with the annual period ending November 30, 2026, allowing for adoption on a prospective basis or a retrospective option. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard only impacts disclosures and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

10

In March 2024, the SEC adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors. This rule will require registrants to disclose certain climate-related information in registration statements and annual reports. The disclosure requirements will apply to the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the final rule to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.

Note 3: Derivative Instruments

Cash Flow Hedge

Our interest rate swap contract with an initial notional amount of $150.0 million matured on April 30, 2024. We entered into the contract to manage the variability of cash flows associated with approximately one-half of our variable rate debt. The contract required periodic interest rate settlements, and we received a floating rate based on the greater of 1-month SOFR or 0.00% and paid a fixed rate of 1.855% on the outstanding notional amount.

The interest rate swap was designated as a cash flow hedge and the effectiveness of the hedge was assessed both at the onset of the hedge and at regular intervals throughout the life of the derivative. As the interest rate swap was highly effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the fair value of the derivative were included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss on our condensed consolidated balance sheets through the first quarter of fiscal year 2024.

On March 1, 2024, we repaid our variable rate debt in full and reclassified an unrealized gain of $0.6 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The net amount of accumulated other comprehensive loss reclassified to interest expense during the nine months ended August 31, 2024 and August 31, 2023 was $1.5 million and $2.6 million, respectively.

The following table presents our interest rate swap contract where the notional amount was equal to approximately one-half of the corresponding reduction in the balance of our term loan. The fair value of the derivative represented the discounted value of the expected future discounted cash flows for the interest rate swap, based on the payment schedule and the current forward curve for the remaining term of the contract, as of the date of each reporting period:

Forward Contracts

We use forward contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments to hedge economically the impact of the variability in exchange rates on intercompany accounts receivable and loans receivable denominated in certain foreign currencies. We generally do not hedge the net assets of our international subsidiaries.

All forward contracts are recorded at fair value in other current assets, other assets, other accrued liabilities, or other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at the end of each reporting period and generally expire between thirty days and 3 years from the date the contract was entered. At August 31, 2024, $0.3 million, $0.1 million and $0.2 million was recorded in other current assets, other assets and other accrued liabilities, respectively, on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. At November 30, 2023, $2.5 million was recorded in other accrued liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, net realized and unrealized gains of $1.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively, from our forward contracts were recognized in foreign currency loss, net, on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. In the three and nine months ended August 31, 2023, net realized and unrealized gains of $1.1 million and $2.7 million, respectively, from our forward contracts were recognized in foreign currency loss, net, on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The table below details outstanding foreign currency forward contracts where the notional amount is determined using contract exchange rates:

When developing fair value estimates, we maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. When available, we use quoted market prices to measure fair value. The valuation technique used to measure fair value for our Level 1 and Level 2 assets is a market approach, using prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets. If market prices are not available, the fair value measurement is based on models that use primarily market-based parameters including yield curves, volatilities, credit ratings and currency rates.

Assets and Liabilities Not Carried at Fair Value

Fair Value of the Convertible Senior Notes

The following table details the fair value and carrying value of our Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 and 2030 (together referred to as “the Notes”):

Total			$	795,282					$	873,456					$	354,772					$	377,125

(1) The carrying value of the convertible senior notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes"), are reflected net of $3.6 million and $5.2 million of unamortized debt issuance costs as of August 31, 2024 and November 30, 2023, respectively.

(2) The carrying value of the convertible senior notes due 2030 (the "2030 Notes"), are reflected net of $11.1 million of unamortized debt issuance costs as of August 31, 2024.

The fair value of the Notes is based on quoted prices in an over-the-counter market on the last trading day of the reporting period and classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Value of Other Financial Assets and Liabilities

The carrying amounts of other financial assets and liabilities including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, unbilled accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their respective fair values due to their immediate or short-term maturities.

Note 6: Business Combinations

MarkLogic Acquisition

On February 7, 2023, we completed the acquisition of the parent company of MarkLogic, pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 3, 2023. The acquisition was completed for a base purchase price of $355.0 million, subject to certain customary adjustments, in cash.

The acquisition consideration for MarkLogic has been allocated to MarkLogic’s tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values. The excess of total consideration over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill.

During the first fiscal quarter of 2024, the measurement period adjustments were completed, which resulted in a $0.7 million increase in goodwill. The purchase price allocation is now complete.

The allocation of the purchase price is as follows:


(in thousands)			Purchase Price Allocation						Life
Net working capital			$	46,335
Property, plant and equipment			723
Purchased technology			67,300						7 years
Trade name			12,500						7 years
Customer relationships			152,300						7 years
Other assets, including long-term unbilled receivables			4,477
Deferred taxes			(24,478)
Deferred revenue			(32,418)
Goodwill			161,770
Net assets acquired			$	388,509

14

The fair value of the intangible assets was estimated using the income approach in which the after-tax cash flows are discounted to present value. The cash flows are based on estimates used to value the acquisition, and the discount rates applied were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the transaction model as well as the weighted average cost of capital. The valuation assumptions take into consideration our estimates of customer attrition, technology obsolescence, and revenue growth projections.

Tangible assets acquired and assumed liabilities were recorded at fair value. We determined the acquisition date deferred revenue balances based on our assessment of the individual contracts acquired. A significant portion of the deferred revenue was recognized in the 12 months following the acquisition.

We recorded the excess of the purchase price over the identified tangible and intangible assets as goodwill. We believe that the investment value of the future enhancement of our product and solution offerings created as a result of this acquisition has principally contributed to a purchase price that resulted in the recognition of $161.8 million of goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

Acquisition-related transaction costs (e.g., legal, due diligence, valuation, and other professional fees) and certain acquisition restructuring and related charges are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are required to be expensed as incurred.

We determined that disclosing the amount of MarkLogic related earnings included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations is impracticable, as certain operations of MarkLogic were integrated into the operations of the Company from the date of acquisition.

Pro Forma Information

The following pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations of Progress and MarkLogic as if the acquisition had occurred on December 1, 2021, after giving effect to certain pro forma adjustments. The pro forma adjustments reflected herein include only those adjustments that are directly attributable to the MarkLogic acquisition and factually supportable. These pro forma adjustments include: (i) a net increase in amortization expense to record amortization expense relating to the $232.1 million of acquired identifiable intangible assets, (ii) an increase in interest expense to record interest for the period presented as a result of drawing down our revolving line of credit in connection with the acquisition, and (iii) the income tax effect of the adjustments made at the statutory tax rate of the U.S. (approximately 24.5%).

The pro forma financial information does not reflect any adjustments for anticipated expense savings resulting from the acquisition and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have actually occurred had the transaction been consummated on December 1, 2021.

Note 7: Debt

In March of 2024, the Company refinanced its debt by issuing the 2030 Notes and used the proceeds to pay off the outstanding balance of the term loan and revolving line of credit under our previous credit agreement. We also entered into an amended and restated credit facility as described below.

Notes Payable

2030 Convertible Senior Notes

On March 1, 2024, the Company issued, in a private placement, convertible senior notes with an aggregate principal amount of $450 million, due March 1, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The proceeds from the 2030 Notes were used in part to enter into the 2024 Capped Call Transactions, described below, for working capital, and for other general corporate purposes, including paying off the existing term loan and revolving line of credit. There are no required principal payments prior to the maturity of the 2030 Notes. The 2030 Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 3.5%, payable semi-annually in arrears on September 1 and March 1 of each year, beginning on September 1, 2024. The Company incurred approximately $12.0 million in issuance costs for the issuance of the 2030 Notes.

Conversion Rights

Before November 1, 2029, Noteholders may convert their 2030 Notes in the following circumstances:

•During any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ending on May 31, 2024, if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for each of at least twenty trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the thirty consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter; or

•During the five consecutive business days immediately after any ten consecutive trading day period (the “Measurement Period”), if 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 per share of Company’s common stock on such trading day and the conversion rate on such trading day; or

•Upon the occurrence of distributions on the Company’s common stock, which distribution per share of common stock has a value exceeding 10% of the last reported sale price per share on the trading day immediately before the date such distribution is announced; or

•Upon the occurrence of certain corporate events or if the Company calls such Notes for redemption, then the Noteholder of any Note may convert such Note.

From and after November 1, 2029, Noteholders may convert their 2030 Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. The Company will satisfy its conversion obligations by paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes to be converted, by issuing shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at its election. The initial conversion rate is 14.7622 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2030 Notes, representing an initial conversion price of approximately $67.74 per share of common stock. The conversion rate will be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events, including spin-offs, tender offers, exchange offers, make-whole fundamental change and certain stockholder distributions.

Repurchase Rights

On or after March 5, 2027, and on or before the 60th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, the Company may redeem for cash all or part of the 2030 Notes, subject to partial redemption limitation, at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeded 130% of the conversion price on (1) each of at least twenty trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any thirty consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides a redemption notice and (2) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. Pursuant to the partial redemption limitation, the Company may not elect to redeem less than all of the outstanding 2030 Notes unless at least $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes are outstanding and not subject to redemption as of the time it sends the related redemption notice.

16

If certain corporate events that constitute a fundamental change (e.g., events such as business combination transactions involving the Company, shareholder approval of liquidation or dissolution of the Company, and certain de-listing events with respect to the Company’s common stock) occur at any time, holders may, subject to certain exceptions, require the Company to purchase their 2030 Notes in whole or in part for cash at a price equal to the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

2024 Capped Call Transactions

On February 27, 2024, in connection with the pricing of the 2030 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (“2024 Capped Call Transactions”). The 2024 Capped Call Transactions cover approximately 6.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock, which represent the number of shares of common stock initially underlying the 2030 Notes. The 2024 Capped Call Transactions are generally expected to reduce potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the 2030 Notes and/or offset any potential cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The cap price of the 2024 Capped Call Transactions will initially be $92.98 per share of common stock, which represents a premium of 75% over the last reported sale price of the common stock of $53.13 per share on February 27, 2024, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the 2024 Capped Call Transactions. The cost of the purchased capped calls of $42.2 million was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in-capital upon settlement in March 2024.

Accounting for the 2030 Notes

The 2030 Notes are classified as a non-current liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and the conversion option does not require bifurcation as an embedded derivative. Issuance costs of $12.0 million were recorded as a reduction to the principal balance of the 2030 Notes and will be amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the contractual term.

(1)Amortization based upon an effective interest rate of 4.0%.

Credit Facility

On March 7, 2024, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with certain lenders, which provides a $900.0 million secured revolving credit facility ("revolving credit facility"). The revolving credit facility may be made available in U.S. Dollars and certain other currencies and may be increased, and new term loan commitments may be entered into, by up to an additional $260.0 million if the existing or additional lenders are willing to make such increased commitments. The revolving credit facility has sublimits for swing line loans up to $25.0 million and for the issuance of standby letters of credit in a face amount up to $25.0 million. We expect to use the revolving credit facility to fund our proposed acquisition of ShareFile and for general corporate purposes.

Interest rates for the revolving credit facility are determined by reference to a Term Benchmark Rate or a base rate at our option and would range from 1.50% to 3.00% above the Term Benchmark Rate for Term Benchmark-based borrowings or from 0.50% to 2.00% above the defined base rate for base rate borrowings, in each case based upon our consolidated total net leverage ratio. Additionally, we may borrow certain foreign currencies at rates set in the same range above the respective Term Benchmark Rates for those currencies, based on our consolidated total net leverage ratio. A quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the revolving credit facility is required, ranging from 0.150% to 0.400% per annum, based upon our consolidated total net leverage ratio.

The credit facility matures on March 7, 2029. The revolving credit facility does not require amortization of principal. Revolving loans may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed until the maturity date, at which time all amounts outstanding must be repaid. Accrued interest on the loans is payable quarterly in arrears. As of August 31, 2024, the revolving credit facility was undrawn.

Costs incurred to obtain our long-term debt of $6.0 million, along with $1.0 million of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the previous credit agreement, were recorded as debt issuance costs and will be amortized over the term of the debt agreement using the effective interest method. Unamortized debt issuance costs related to the repaid term loan were expensed.

17

We are the sole borrower under the credit facility and our obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by each of our material domestic subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all of our assets and each of our material domestic subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict our ability to, among other things, grant liens, make investments, make acquisitions, incur indebtedness, merge or consolidate, dispose of assets, pay dividends or make distributions, repurchase stock, change the nature of the business, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and enter into burdensome agreements, in each case subject to customary exceptions for a credit facility of this size and type. We are also required to maintain compliance with a consolidated interest charge coverage ratio, a consolidated senior secured net leverage ratio and a consolidated total net leverage ratio.

Note 8: Common Stock Repurchases

In January 2023, our Board of Directors increased the share repurchase authorization by $150.0 million to an aggregate authorization of $228.0 million. In the three months ended August 31, 2024, we repurchased and retired 0.3 million shares for $14.3 million. In the three months ended August 31, 2023, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. In the nine months ended August 31, 2024 and August 31, 2023, we repurchased and retired 1.6 million shares for $86.8 million and 0.5 million shares for $30.0 million, respectively. As of August 31, 2024, there was $107.2 million remaining under the current authorization.

Note 9: Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense reflects the fair value of stock-based awards measured at the grant date and recognized over the relevant service period. We estimate the fair value of each stock-based award on the measurement date using either the current market price of the stock, the Black-Scholes option valuation model, or the Monte Carlo Simulation valuation model. The Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo Simulation valuation models incorporate assumptions as to stock price volatility, the expected life of options or awards, a risk-free interest rate, and dividend yield. We recognize stock-based compensation expense related to options and restricted stock units on a straight-line basis over the service period of the award, which is generally four or five years for options and three or four years for restricted stock units, and adjust the expense each period for actual forfeitures. We recognize stock-based compensation expense related to performance stock units and our employee stock purchase plan using an accelerated attribution.

In 2022, 2023, and 2024, we granted performance-based restricted stock units that include two performance metrics under our Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") where the performance measurement period is three years. Vesting of the LTIP awards in the 2022, 2023, and 2024 plans are based on the following: (i) 75% is based on achievement of a three-year cumulative operating income, and (ii) 25% is based on our level of attainment of specified TSR targets relative to the percentage appreciation of a specified index of companies for the respective three-year periods. The vesting of LTIP awards is also subject to continued employment of the grantees through the performance period, except in the event of a qualifying termination. In order to estimate the fair value of such awards, we use a Monte Carlo Simulation valuation model for the market condition portion of the award, which uses the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant, less the present value of expected dividends when applicable, for the portion related to the performance condition.

The following table provides the classification of stock-based compensation as reflected on our condensed consolidated statements of operations:


			Three Months Ended												Nine Months Ended

The changes in net deferred revenue for the nine months ended August 31, 2024 were as follows:


(in thousands)
Balance, December 1, 2023			$	295,036
Billings and other			528,796
Revenue recognized that was deferred in prior periods			(235,649)
Revenue recognized from current period arrangements			(302,799)
Balance, August 31, 2024			$	285,384

As of August 31, 2024, transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $346 million. We expect to recognize approximately 73% of the revenue within the next year and the remainder thereafter.

Deferred Contract Costs

Certain of our sales incentive programs meet the requirements to be capitalized. Depending upon the sales incentive program and the related revenue arrangement, such capitalized costs are amortized over the longer of (i) the product life, which is generally three to five years; or (ii) the term of the related revenue contract. We determined that a three to five year product life represents the period of benefit that we receive from these incremental costs based on both qualitative and quantitative factors, which include customer contracts, industry norms, and product upgrades. Total deferred contract costs were $6.1 million and $7.6 million as of August 31, 2024 and November 30, 2023, respectively, and are included in other current assets and other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of deferred contract costs is included in sales and marketing expense on our condensed consolidated statement of operations and was minimal in all periods presented.

Note 12: Restructuring Charges

The following table provides a summary of activity for our restructuring actions:


(in thousands)			Excess Facilities and Other Costs						Employee Severance and Related Benefits						Total
Balance, December 1, 2023			$	3,297					$	1,890					$	5,187
Costs incurred			2,904						404						3,308
Cash disbursements			(2,056)						(2,231)						(4,287)
Balance, August 31, 2024			$	4,145					$	63					$	4,208

Costs incurred during the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024 are primarily related to a facility closure in connection with the restructuring action from the first fiscal quarter of 2023. We do not expect to incur additional material expenses as part of this action.

Note 13: Earnings per share

We compute basic earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. We compute diluted earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding dilutive stock options, restricted stock units, and deferred stock units, using the treasury stock method. The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share on an interim basis:


			Three Months Ended												Nine Months Ended
(in thousands, except per share data)			August 31, 2024						August 31, 2023						August 31, 2024						August 31, 2023
Net income			$	28,464					$	19,098					$	67,291					$	54,862
Weighted average shares outstanding			42,872						43,452						43,296						43,365
Basic earnings per common share			$	0.66					$	0.44					$	1.55					$	1.27

Diluted earnings per common share:
Net income			$	28,464					$	19,098					$	67,291					$	54,862
Weighted average shares outstanding			42,872						43,452						43,296						43,365
Effect of dilution from common stock equivalents			839						1,353						871						1,178
Effect of dilution from if-converted 2026 Notes			—						176						—						—
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding			43,711						44,981						44,167						44,543
Diluted earnings per share			$	0.65					$	0.42					$	1.52					$	1.23

We excluded stock awards representing approximately 560,000 and 849,000 shares of common stock from the calculation of diluted earnings per share in the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, respectively, as these awards were anti-dilutive. We excluded stock awards representing approximately 252,000 and 286,000 shares of common stock from the calculation of diluted earnings per share in the three and nine months ended August 31, 2023, respectively, as these awards were anti-dilutive.

The dilutive impact of the Notes on our calculation of diluted earnings per share is considered using the if-converted method. However, because the principal amount of the Notes must be settled in cash, the dilutive impact of applying the if-converted method is limited to the in-the-money portion, if any, of the Notes. During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, we did not include the Notes in our diluted earnings per share calculation because the conversion feature in the Notes was out of the money.

For the three months ended August 31, 2023, the average daily closing price of the Company's common stock was greater than the conversion price for the 2026 Notes outstanding as of August 31, 2023. Therefore, for this period, the Company applied the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per common share. During the nine months ended August 31, 2023, the average daily closing price of the Company's common stock was less than the conversion price for the 2026 Notes. Therefore, for this period, the 2026 Notes had no impact on the computation of diluted earnings per common share.

Note 14: Segment Information

Operating segments are components of an enterprise that engage in business activities for which discrete financial information is available and regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. Our CODM is our Chief Executive Officer.

We operate as one operating segment: software products to develop, deploy, and manage high-impact applications. Our CODM evaluates financial information on a consolidated basis. As we operate as one operating segment, the required financial segment information can be found in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 15: Cyber Related Matters

November 2022 Cyber Incident

Following the detection of irregular activity on certain portions of our corporate network, we engaged outside cybersecurity experts and other incident response professionals to conduct a forensic investigation and assess the extent and scope of the incident. We did not incur costs related to this incident during fiscal year 2024 and do not expect to incur additional costs as the investigation is closed. We did not incur any meaningful costs related to this cyber incident for the three months ended August 31, 2023. We incurred net expenses of $4.2 million related to this incident during the nine months ended August 31, 2023.

MOVEit Vulnerability

As previously reported, on the evening of May 28, 2023, we learned that our MOVEit Transfer (the on-premise version) and MOVEit Cloud (a cloud-hosted version of MOVEit Transfer) products were attacked via a “zero-day vulnerability” that could provide for unauthorized escalated privileges and access to the customer’s underlying environment (the “MOVEit Vulnerability”). A "zero-day vulnerability" is a vulnerability that has been publicly disclosed and/or exploited (e.g., by an independent researcher or threat actor) before the software vendor has an opportunity to patch it. We continue to monitor the impact of the MOVEit Vulnerability on our business, operations, and financial results. MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud represented less than 4% in aggregate of our revenue for the nine months ended August 31, 2024.

Litigation and Governmental Investigations Arising from the MOVEit Vulnerability

As previously reported, as a result of the MOVEit Vulnerability, we are party to certain class action lawsuits filed by individuals who claim to have been impacted by the exfiltration of data from the environments of our MOVEit Transfer customers, which the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred to the District of Massachusetts for coordinated and consolidated proceedings (the "MDL"). The MDL also includes the previously disclosed subrogation claim (where an insurer is seeking recovery for expenses incurred on behalf of its insured in connection with the MOVEit Vulnerability).

Also as previously disclosed, we have also been cooperating with inquires and investigations from: (i) several domestic and foreign data privacy regulators (a number of which have been closed without regulatory action), (ii) several state attorneys general, and (iii) one formal investigation from a U.S. federal law enforcement agency (as of the date of the filing of the financial statements, this is not an enforcement action or formal governmental investigation of which we have been told that we are a target).

As previously disclosed, we received a subpoena from the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Enforcement (the “SEC”) on October 2, 2023, as part of a fact-finding inquiry seeking various documents and information relating to the MOVEit Vulnerability. In a letter dated August 7, 2024, the SEC notified us that the Commission had concluded its investigation and did not intend to recommend an enforcement action against Progress (the “Termination Letter”). The Termination Letter was provided under the guidelines set out in the final paragraph of Securities Act Release No. 5310.

Expenses Incurred and Future Costs

For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, we incurred net costs of $0.9 million and $5.0 million, respectively, related to the MOVEit Vulnerability. The costs recognized are net of insurance recoveries of $0.6 million and $2.5 million for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, respectively. The timing of recognizing insurance recoveries may differ from the timing of recognizing the associated expenses.

22

We expect to continue to incur investigation, legal and professional services expenses associated with the MOVEit Vulnerability in future periods. We will recognize these expenses as services are received, net of insurance recoveries. While a loss from these matters is reasonably possible, we cannot reasonably estimate a range of possible losses at this time, particularly while the foregoing matters remain ongoing. Furthermore, with respect to the litigation, the proceedings remain in the early stages, alleged damages have not been specified, there is uncertainty as to the likelihood of a class or classes being certified or the ultimate size of any class if certified, and there are significant factual and legal issues to be resolved. Also, each of the governmental inquiries and investigations mentioned above could result in adverse judgements, settlements, fines, penalties, or other resolutions, the amount, scope and timing of which could be material, but which we are currently unable to predict. Therefore, we have not recorded a loss contingency liability for the MOVEit Vulnerability as of August 31, 2024.

In addition, we may accelerate or make additional investments in our information technology systems, infrastructure, software products or networks following the MOVEit Vulnerability, however, we currently do not expect such amounts to be material to any fiscal period.

Insurance Coverage

During the period when the November 2022 cyber incident and the MOVEit Vulnerability occurred, we maintained $15.0 million of cybersecurity insurance coverage, which is expected to reduce our exposure to expenses and liabilities arising from these events. As of August 31, 2024, we have recorded approximately $7.5 million in insurance recoveries, of which $2.5 million was related to the November 2022 cyber incident and $5.0 million was related to the May 2023 MOVEit Vulnerability, providing us with approximately $7.5 million of additional cybersecurity insurance coverage under the applicable policy (which is subject to a $0.5 million retention per claim). We will pursue recoveries to the maximum extent available under our insurance policies.

Note 16: Subsequent Events

On September 9, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire ShareFile from Cloud Software Group, Inc. for approximately $875 million in cash, subject to a $25 million working capital credit. The closing of the acquisition (the “Closing”) is expected to occur in the quarter ending November 30, 2024. The acquisition is expected to be funded with a combination of existing cash on hand and borrowings under our existing revolving credit facility. The acquisition will add product and service solutions to our capabilities with ShareFile’s SaaS-native, AI-powered document-centric collaboration and workflows, client portal, secure file sync and share and eSignature abilities.

Our Board of Directors has approved the suspension of Progress’ quarterly dividend in connection with the Closing and plans to redirect such capital toward the repayment of debt to increase liquidity for future M&A and for share repurchases.

Overview

Progress provides enterprise software products for the development, deployment and management of responsible, AI-powered applications and experiences.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. We make estimates and assumptions in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from these estimates. The most significant estimates relate to revenue recognition, loss contingencies and the MOVEit Vulnerability, and business combinations. For further information regarding the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 1: Basis of Presentation to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of our 2023 Annual Report. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates since our 2023 Annual Report.

Use of Constant Currency

Revenue from our international operations has historically represented a substantial portion of our total revenue. As a result, our revenue results have been impacted, and we expect will continue to be impacted, by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For example, if the local currencies of our foreign subsidiaries strengthen, our consolidated results stated in U.S. dollars are positively impacted.

As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, we believe the presentation of revenue growth rates on a constant currency basis enhances the understanding of our revenue results and evaluation of our performance in comparison to prior periods. The constant currency information presented is calculated by translating current period results using prior period weighted average foreign currency exchange rates. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP.

Total revenue generated in North America increased $2.4 million and increased $8.1 million in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal year 2024, respectively. The increase in the first nine months of fiscal year 2024 in North America was primarily due to the timing of our acquisition of MarkLogic, as described above. Total revenue generated in EMEA remained relatively flat in the third quarter. Total revenue in EMEA increased by $11.3 million in the nine month period of fiscal year 2024 due to a slight increase across multiple product offerings. Total revenue in Latin America and Asia Pacific remained relatively flat in all periods presented.

In the first nine months of fiscal year 2024 revenue generated in markets outside North America represented 42% of total revenue and on an actual and constant currency basis. In the first nine months of fiscal year 2023 revenue generated in markets outside North America represented 41% of total revenue on an actual and a constant currency basis.

Cost of maintenance and services consists primarily of costs of providing customer support, consulting, and education. The decrease in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 was primarily due to decreased personnel related costs and contractor and outside services costs. The increase in first nine months of fiscal year 2024 is due to increased personnel related costs resulting from our acquisition of MarkLogic.

Amortization of Intangibles

Amortization of intangibles included in costs of revenue primarily represents the amortization of the value assigned to technology-related intangible assets obtained in business combinations. The decrease in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 is due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024. The year over year decrease in the first nine months of fiscal year 2024 is due certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized in the period, offset by the acquisition of MarkLogic.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 primarily due to decreased personnel related costs as a result of lower headcount. Sales and marketing expenses increased in the first nine months of fiscal year 2024 primarily due to increased personnel related costs associated with our acquisition of MarkLogic, as well as increases in marketing and sales events costs, partially offset by decreases in contractors and outside services costs.

General and administrative expenses include the costs of our finance, human resources, legal, information systems and administrative departments. General and administrative expenses remained relatively flat during the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year. General and administrative expenses increased in the first nine months of fiscal year 2024 primarily due to higher personnel costs and other general and administrative costs. These increases were offset by decreases in contractors and outside services costs.

Amortization of Intangibles

Amortization of intangibles included in operating expenses primarily represents the amortization of value assigned to intangible assets obtained in business combinations other than assets identified as purchased technology. The decrease in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 is due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024. Amortization of intangibles decreased in the first nine months of fiscal year 2024 due to certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized in the period, offset by the addition of MarkLogic intangible assets, as discussed above.

Cyber incident and MOVEit Vulnerability costs relate to the engagement of external cybersecurity experts and other incident response professionals and are net of received and expected insurance recoveries. We did not incur costs related to the November 2022 cyber incident during fiscal year 2024 and do not expect to incur additional costs as the investigation is closed. Please refer to Note 15: Cyber Related Matters for additional details and updates regarding the MOVEit Vulnerability.

Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred and include those costs incurred as a result of a business combination. These costs consist of professional service fees, including third-party legal and valuation-related fees. Acquisition-related expenses in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 were primarily related to our pursuit of ShareFile. Acquisition-related expenses in the first nine months of fiscal year 2024 were primarily related to our pursuit of ShareFile and other acquisition opportunities. Acquisition-related expenses in the same periods of fiscal year 2023 were primarily related to our acquisition of MarkLogic.

Other expense, net, decreased in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 due to lower interest rates as a result of our debt refinancing in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024, in which we issued the 2030 Notes and entered into an amended and restated credit facility. Please refer to Note 7: Debt for further discussion. Interest income and other, net, was higher in fiscal year 2024, resulting from higher interest rates on our invested cash balance. Foreign currency loss increased year over year due to rate volatility and timing of intercompany and hedge settlement activities.

Our effective tax rate was 17% and 9% in the third fiscal quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. The primary reason for the increase in the effective rate was due to discrete tax benefits in the third fiscal quarter of 2023 related to stock-based compensation and the impacts of Notice 2023-55, which was issued by the Internal Revenue Service during July 2023 and provided temporary relief for taxpayers in determining whether a foreign tax is eligible for a foreign tax credit under Sections 901 and 903 of the Internal Revenue Code. There were no significant discrete tax items in the third fiscal quarter of 2024.

Select Performance Metrics:

Management evaluates our financial performance using a number of financial and operating metrics. These metrics are periodically reviewed and revised to reflect changes in our business.

Annualized Recurring Revenue ("ARR")

We disclose ARR as a performance metric to help investors better understand and assess the performance of our business because our mix of revenue generated from recurring sources currently represents the substantial majority of our revenues and is expected to continue in the future. We define ARR as the annualized revenue of all active and contractually binding term-based contracts from all customers at a point in time. ARR includes revenue from maintenance, software upgrade rights, public cloud, and on-premises subscription-based transactions and managed services. ARR mitigates fluctuations in revenue due to seasonality, contract term and the sales mix of subscriptions for term-based licenses and SaaS. Management uses ARR to understand customer trends and the overall health of the Company’s business, helping it to formulate strategic business decisions.

We calculate the annualized value of annual and multi-year contracts, and contracts with terms less than one year, by dividing the total contract value of each contract by the number of months in the term and then multiplying by 12. Annualizing contracts with terms less than one-year results in amounts being included in our ARR that are in excess of the total contract value for those contracts at the end of the reporting period. We generally do not sell contracts with a term of less than one year unless a customer is purchasing additional licenses under an existing annual or multi-year contract. The expectation is that at the time of renewal, contracts with a term less than one year will renew with the same term as the existing contracts being renewed, such that both contracts are co-termed. Historically contracts with a term of less than one year renew at rates equal to or better than annual or multi-year contracts.

Revenue from term-based license and on-premises subscription arrangements include a portion of the arrangement consideration that is allocated to the software license that is recognized up-front at the point in time control is transferred under ASC 606 revenue recognition principles. ARR for these arrangements is calculated as described above. The expectation is that the total contract value, inclusive of revenue recognized as software license, will be renewed at the end of the contract term.

The calculation is done at constant currency using the current year budgeted exchange rates for all periods presented.

ARR is not defined in GAAP and is not derived from a GAAP measure. Rather, ARR generally aligns to billings (as opposed to GAAP revenue which aligns to the transfer of control of each performance obligation). 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 and is not intended to be combined with or to replace either of those

31

items. ARR is not a forecast and the active contracts at the end of a reporting period used in calculating ARR may or may not be extended or renewed by our customers.

Our ARR was $582.0 million and $581.0 million as of August 31, 2024 and August 31, 2023, respectively, which is relatively flat year-over-year.

Net Retention Rate

We calculate net retention rate as of a period end by starting with the ARR from the cohort of all customers as of 12 months prior to such period end ("Prior Period ARR"). We then calculate the ARR from these same customers as of the current period end ("Current Period ARR"). Current Period ARR includes any expansion and is net of contraction or attrition over the last 12 months but excludes ARR from new customers in the current period. We then divide the total Current Period ARR by the total Prior Period ARR to arrive at the net retention rate. Net retention rate is not defined in accordance with GAAP.

Our net retention rates have generally ranged between 99% and 101% for all periods presented. Our high net retention rates illustrate our predictable and durable top line performance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and Cash Equivalents


(in thousands)			August 31, 2024						November 30, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents			$	232,713					$	126,958

The increase in cash and cash equivalents of $105.8 million from the end of fiscal year 2023 was due to proceeds from the issuance of convertible senior notes of $396.5 million (net of purchases of capped calls in connection with the convertible notes offering of $42.2 million and issuance costs of $11.2 million), cash inflows from operations of $191.8 million, $6.8 million in cash received from the issuance of common stock, and the effect of exchange rates on cash of $1.5 million. We refinanced our debt by issuing the convertible senior notes and used the proceeds to pay off the outstanding balance of the term loan and revolving line of credit under our previous credit agreement. As such, the cash inflows described above were offset by cash outflows of $261.3 million to pay off the balance of the term loan, $110.0 million to pay off the revolving line of credit, repurchases of common stock of $86.8 million, dividend payments of $23.8 million, payment of debt issuance costs of $6.8 million, and purchases of property and equipment of $2.3 million. Except as described below, there are no limitations on our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents.

As of August 31, 2024, $77.2 million of our cash and cash equivalents was held by our foreign subsidiaries. Foreign cash includes unremitted foreign earnings, which are invested indefinitely outside of the U.S. As such, the foreign cash is not available to fund our domestic operations. If we were to repatriate these earnings, we may be subject to income tax withholding in certain tax jurisdictions and a portion of the repatriated earnings may be subject to U.S. income tax. However, we do not anticipate that this would have a material adverse impact on our liquidity.

Share Repurchase Program

In January 2023, our Board of Directors increased our share repurchase authorization by $150 million, to an aggregate authorization of $228.0 million. In the three months ended August 31, 2024, we repurchased and retired 0.3 million shares for $14.3 million. In the three months ended August 31, 2023, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. In the nine months ended August 31, 2024 and August 31, 2023, we repurchased and retired 1.6 million shares for $86.8 million and 0.5 million shares for $30.0 million, respectively. The shares were repurchased in both periods as part of our Board of Directors authorized share repurchase program. As of August 31, 2024, there was $107.2 million remaining under the current authorization.

Dividends

As announced on September 9, 2024, Progress’ Board of Directors approved the suspension of Progress’ quarterly dividend in connection with the ShareFile acquisition and plans to redirect such capital toward the repayment of debt to increase liquidity for future M&A and for share repurchases, both of which are prioritized in our capital allocation policy.

Our financing activities are significantly impacted by non-recurring financing transactions, including those detailed above and as explained in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Further, we repurchased $86.8 million of our common stock under our share repurchase plan compared to $30.0 million in the same period of the prior year. Finally, we made dividend payments of $23.8 million to our stockholders during the first nine months of fiscal year 2024 and $23.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal year 2023. As noted above, the Board of Directors has announced a suspension of future dividends.

Liquidity Outlook

Cash from operations in fiscal year 2024 could be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the effects of various risks detailed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2023 Annual Report, including increased disruption and volatility in capital markets and credit markets that could adversely affect our liquidity and capital resources in the future. However, based on our current business plan, we believe that existing cash balances, together with funds generated from operations and amounts available under our revolving credit facility, will be sufficient to finance our operations and meet our foreseeable cash requirements through at least the next twelve months, including funding our proposed acquisition of ShareFile with a combination of existing cash on hand and borrowings under our existing revolving credit facility. We do not contemplate a need for any foreign repatriation of the earnings which are deemed invested indefinitely outside of the U.S. Our foreseeable cash needs include capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt repayments, share repurchases, lease commitments, restructuring obligations and other long-term obligations.

Legal and Other Regulatory Matters

MOVEit Vulnerability

As previously reported, on the evening of May 28, 2023, we learned that our MOVEit Transfer (the on-premise version) and MOVEit Cloud (a cloud-hosted version of MOVEit Transfer) products were attacked via a “zero-day vulnerability” that could provide for unauthorized escalated privileges and access to the customer’s underlying environment (the “MOVEit Vulnerability”). A "zero-day vulnerability" is a vulnerability that has been publicly disclosed and/or exploited (e.g., by an independent researcher or threat actor) before the software vendor has an opportunity to patch it. We continue to monitor the impact of the MOVEit Vulnerability on our business, operations, and financial results. MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud represented less than 4% in aggregate of our revenue for the nine months ended August 31, 2024.

We are subject to litigation and governmental investigations related to the MOVEit Vulnerability, for which we have incurred expenses and will incur future costs. We expect our exposure to such expenses and liabilities to be reduced by insurance.

Please refer to Note 15: Cyber Related Matters to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1, Financial Statements for additional details and updates regarding the MOVEit Vulnerability.

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our management maintains disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the requisite time periods and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation Company Overview - Progress Software Corporation ("Progress," the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") provides enterprise software products for the development, deployment and management of responsible, AI-powered applications and experiences. Our products are generally sold as perpetual licenses, but certain products also use term licensing models and our cloud-based offerings use a subscription-based model. More than half of our worldwide license revenue is realized through relationships with indirect channel partners, principally independent software vendors, original equipment manufacturers, distributors and value-added resellers. Independent software vendors develop and market applications using our technology and resell our products in conjunction with sales of their own products that incorporate our technology. Original equipment manufacturers are companies that embed our products into their own software products or devices. Value-added resellers are companies that add features or services to our product, then resell it as an integrated product or complete "turn-key" solution. We operate in North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa ("EMEA"), and Asia and Australia ("Asia Pacific"), through local subsidiaries as well as independent distributors. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies - We prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete financial statements and these unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2023, as filed with the SEC on January 26, 2024 (our "2023 Annual Report"). We made no material changes in the application of our significant accounting policies that were disclosed in our 2023 Annual Report. We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as the audited financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report, and these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and records changes in estimates in the period in which they become known. These estimates are based on historical data and experience, as well as various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates relate to revenue recognition, loss contingencies and the MOVEit Vulnerability, and business combinations. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The amendments in this update expand segment disclosure requirements, including new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment among other disclosure requirements. This update is effective for the Company in the consolidated financial statements for the year ending November 30, 2025, and interim periods beginning after December 1, 2025. The adoption of this standard only impacts disclosures and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 is intended to improve the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company beginning with the annual period ending November 30, 2026, allowing for adoption on a prospective basis or a retrospective option. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard only impacts disclosures and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In March 2024, the SEC adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors. This rule will require registrants to disclose certain climate-related information in registration statements and annual reports. The disclosure requirements will apply to the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the final rule to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.

Cash Flow Hedge

Our interest rate swap contract with an initial notional amount of $150.0 million matured on April 30, 2024. We entered into the contract to manage the variability of cash flows associated with approximately one-half of our variable rate debt. The contract required periodic interest rate settlements, and we received a floating rate based on the greater of 1-month SOFR or 0.00% and paid a fixed rate of 1.855% on the outstanding notional amount.

The interest rate swap was designated as a cash flow hedge and the effectiveness of the hedge was assessed both at the onset of the hedge and at regular intervals throughout the life of the derivative. As the interest rate swap was highly effective in offsetting the variability of the hedged cash flows, changes in the fair value of the derivative were included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss on our condensed consolidated balance sheets through the first quarter of fiscal year 2024.

On March 1, 2024, we repaid our variable rate debt in full and reclassified an unrealized gain of $0.6 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The net amount of accumulated other comprehensive loss reclassified to interest expense during the nine months ended August 31, 2024 and August 31, 2023 was $1.5 million and $2.6 million, respectively.

The following table presents our interest rate swap contract where the notional amount was equal to approximately one-half of the corresponding reduction in the balance of our term loan. The fair value of the derivative represented the discounted value of the expected future discounted cash flows for the interest rate swap, based on the payment schedule and the current forward curve for the remaining term of the contract, as of the date of each reporting period:

Forward Contracts

We use forward contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments to hedge economically the impact of the variability in exchange rates on intercompany accounts receivable and loans receivable denominated in certain foreign currencies. We generally do not hedge the net assets of our international subsidiaries.

All forward contracts are recorded at fair value in other current assets, other assets, other accrued liabilities, or other noncurrent liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at the end of each reporting period and generally expire between thirty days and 3 years from the date the contract was entered. At August 31, 2024, $0.3 million, $0.1 million and $0.2 million was recorded in other current assets, other assets and other accrued liabilities, respectively, on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. At November 30, 2023, $2.5 million was recorded in other accrued liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, net realized and unrealized gains of $1.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively, from our forward contracts were recognized in foreign currency loss, net, on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. In the three and nine months ended August 31, 2023, net realized and unrealized gains of $1.1 million and $2.7 million, respectively, from our forward contracts were recognized in foreign currency loss, net, on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

When developing fair value estimates, we maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. When available, we use quoted market prices to measure fair value. The valuation technique used to measure fair value for our Level 1 and Level 2 assets is a market approach, using prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets. If market prices are not available, the fair value measurement is based on models that use primarily market-based parameters including yield curves, volatilities, credit ratings and currency rates.

MarkLogic Acquisition

On February 7, 2023, we completed the acquisition of the parent company of MarkLogic, pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 3, 2023. The acquisition was completed for a base purchase price of $355.0 million, subject to certain customary adjustments, in cash.

The acquisition consideration for MarkLogic has been allocated to MarkLogic’s tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values. The excess of total consideration over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill.

During the first fiscal quarter of 2024, the measurement period adjustments were completed, which resulted in a $0.7 million increase in goodwill. The purchase price allocation is now complete.

The allocation of the purchase price is as follows:


(in thousands)			Purchase Price Allocation						Life
Net working capital			$	46,335
Property, plant and equipment			723
Purchased technology			67,300						7 years
Trade name			12,500						7 years
Customer relationships			152,300						7 years
Other assets, including long-term unbilled receivables			4,477
Deferred taxes			(24,478)
Deferred revenue			(32,418)
Goodwill			161,770
Net assets acquired			$	388,509

The fair value of the intangible assets was estimated using the income approach in which the after-tax cash flows are discounted to present value. The cash flows are based on estimates used to value the acquisition, and the discount rates applied were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the transaction model as well as the weighted average cost of capital. The valuation assumptions take into consideration our estimates of customer attrition, technology obsolescence, and revenue growth projections.

Tangible assets acquired and assumed liabilities were recorded at fair value. We determined the acquisition date deferred revenue balances based on our assessment of the individual contracts acquired. A significant portion of the deferred revenue was recognized in the 12 months following the acquisition.

We recorded the excess of the purchase price over the identified tangible and intangible assets as goodwill. We believe that the investment value of the future enhancement of our product and solution offerings created as a result of this acquisition has principally contributed to a purchase price that resulted in the recognition of $161.8 million of goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes.

Acquisition-related transaction costs (e.g., legal, due diligence, valuation, and other professional fees) and certain acquisition restructuring and related charges are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are required to be expensed as incurred.

We determined that disclosing the amount of MarkLogic related earnings included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations is impracticable, as certain operations of MarkLogic were integrated into the operations of the Company from the date of acquisition.

Pro Forma Information

The following pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations of Progress and MarkLogic as if the acquisition had occurred on December 1, 2021, after giving effect to certain pro forma adjustments. The pro forma adjustments reflected herein include only those adjustments that are directly attributable to the MarkLogic acquisition and factually supportable. These pro forma adjustments include: (i) a net increase in amortization expense to record amortization expense relating to the $232.1 million of acquired identifiable intangible assets, (ii) an increase in interest expense to record interest for the period presented as a result of drawing down our revolving line of credit in connection with the acquisition, and (iii) the income tax effect of the adjustments made at the statutory tax rate of the U.S. (approximately 24.5%).

The pro forma financial information does not reflect any adjustments for anticipated expense savings resulting from the acquisition and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have actually occurred had the transaction been consummated on December 1, 2021.

Line of Credit Facility [Abstract]

Debt

In March of 2024, the Company refinanced its debt by issuing the 2030 Notes and used the proceeds to pay off the outstanding balance of the term loan and revolving line of credit under our previous credit agreement. We also entered into an amended and restated credit facility as described below.

Notes Payable

2030 Convertible Senior Notes

On March 1, 2024, the Company issued, in a private placement, convertible senior notes with an aggregate principal amount of $450 million, due March 1, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The proceeds from the 2030 Notes were used in part to enter into the 2024 Capped Call Transactions, described below, for working capital, and for other general corporate purposes, including paying off the existing term loan and revolving line of credit. There are no required principal payments prior to the maturity of the 2030 Notes. The 2030 Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 3.5%, payable semi-annually in arrears on September 1 and March 1 of each year, beginning on September 1, 2024. The Company incurred approximately $12.0 million in issuance costs for the issuance of the 2030 Notes.

Conversion Rights

Before November 1, 2029, Noteholders may convert their 2030 Notes in the following circumstances:

•During any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ending on May 31, 2024, if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for each of at least twenty trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the thirty consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter; or

•During the five consecutive business days immediately after any ten consecutive trading day period (the “Measurement Period”), if 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 per share of Company’s common stock on such trading day and the conversion rate on such trading day; or

•Upon the occurrence of distributions on the Company’s common stock, which distribution per share of common stock has a value exceeding 10% of the last reported sale price per share on the trading day immediately before the date such distribution is announced; or

•Upon the occurrence of certain corporate events or if the Company calls such Notes for redemption, then the Noteholder of any Note may convert such Note.

From and after November 1, 2029, Noteholders may convert their 2030 Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. The Company will satisfy its conversion obligations by paying cash up to the aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes to be converted, by issuing shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at its election. The initial conversion rate is 14.7622 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2030 Notes, representing an initial conversion price of approximately $67.74 per share of common stock. The conversion rate will be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events, including spin-offs, tender offers, exchange offers, make-whole fundamental change and certain stockholder distributions.

Repurchase Rights

On or after March 5, 2027, and on or before the 60th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, the Company may redeem for cash all or part of the 2030 Notes, subject to partial redemption limitation, at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeded 130% of the conversion price on (1) each of at least twenty trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any thirty consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides a redemption notice and (2) the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends such notice. Pursuant to the partial redemption limitation, the Company may not elect to redeem less than all of the outstanding 2030 Notes unless at least $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2030 Notes are outstanding and not subject to redemption as of the time it sends the related redemption notice.

If certain corporate events that constitute a fundamental change (e.g., events such as business combination transactions involving the Company, shareholder approval of liquidation or dissolution of the Company, and certain de-listing events with respect to the Company’s common stock) occur at any time, holders may, subject to certain exceptions, require the Company to purchase their 2030 Notes in whole or in part for cash at a price equal to the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

2024 Capped Call Transactions

On February 27, 2024, in connection with the pricing of the 2030 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (“2024 Capped Call Transactions”). The 2024 Capped Call Transactions cover approximately 6.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock, which represent the number of shares of common stock initially underlying the 2030 Notes. The 2024 Capped Call Transactions are generally expected to reduce potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the 2030 Notes and/or offset any potential cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The cap price of the 2024 Capped Call Transactions will initially be $92.98 per share of common stock, which represents a premium of 75% over the last reported sale price of the common stock of $53.13 per share on February 27, 2024, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the 2024 Capped Call Transactions. The cost of the purchased capped calls of $42.2 million was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in-capital upon settlement in March 2024.

Accounting for the 2030 Notes

The 2030 Notes are classified as a non-current liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and the conversion option does not require bifurcation as an embedded derivative. Issuance costs of $12.0 million were recorded as a reduction to the principal balance of the 2030 Notes and will be amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the contractual term.

Credit Facility

On March 7, 2024, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with certain lenders, which provides a $900.0 million secured revolving credit facility ("revolving credit facility"). The revolving credit facility may be made available in U.S. Dollars and certain other currencies and may be increased, and new term loan commitments may be entered into, by up to an additional $260.0 million if the existing or additional lenders are willing to make such increased commitments. The revolving credit facility has sublimits for swing line loans up to $25.0 million and for the issuance of standby letters of credit in a face amount up to $25.0 million. We expect to use the revolving credit facility to fund our proposed acquisition of ShareFile and for general corporate purposes.

Interest rates for the revolving credit facility are determined by reference to a Term Benchmark Rate or a base rate at our option and would range from 1.50% to 3.00% above the Term Benchmark Rate for Term Benchmark-based borrowings or from 0.50% to 2.00% above the defined base rate for base rate borrowings, in each case based upon our consolidated total net leverage ratio. Additionally, we may borrow certain foreign currencies at rates set in the same range above the respective Term Benchmark Rates for those currencies, based on our consolidated total net leverage ratio. A quarterly commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the revolving credit facility is required, ranging from 0.150% to 0.400% per annum, based upon our consolidated total net leverage ratio.

The credit facility matures on March 7, 2029. The revolving credit facility does not require amortization of principal. Revolving loans may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed until the maturity date, at which time all amounts outstanding must be repaid. Accrued interest on the loans is payable quarterly in arrears. As of August 31, 2024, the revolving credit facility was undrawn.

Costs incurred to obtain our long-term debt of $6.0 million, along with $1.0 million of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the previous credit agreement, were recorded as debt issuance costs and will be amortized over the term of the debt agreement using the effective interest method. Unamortized debt issuance costs related to the repaid term loan were expensed.

We are the sole borrower under the credit facility and our obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by each of our material domestic subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all of our assets and each of our material domestic subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict our ability to, among other things, grant liens, make investments, make acquisitions, incur indebtedness, merge or consolidate, dispose of assets, pay dividends or make distributions, repurchase stock, change the nature of the business, enter into certain transactions with affiliates and enter into burdensome agreements, in each case subject to customary exceptions for a credit facility of this size and type. We are also required to maintain compliance with a consolidated interest charge coverage ratio, a consolidated senior secured net leverage ratio and a consolidated total net leverage ratio.

In the three months ended August 31, 2024, we repurchased and retired 0.3 million shares for $14.3 million. In the three months ended August 31, 2023, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. In the nine months ended August 31, 2024 and August 31, 2023, we repurchased and retired 1.6 million shares for $86.8 million and 0.5 million shares for $30.0 million, respectively. As of August 31, 2024, there was $107.2 million remaining under the current authorization.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense reflects the fair value of stock-based awards measured at the grant date and recognized over the relevant service period. We estimate the fair value of each stock-based award on the measurement date using either the current market price of the stock, the Black-Scholes option valuation model, or the Monte Carlo Simulation valuation model. The Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo Simulation valuation models incorporate assumptions as to stock price volatility, the expected life of options or awards, a risk-free interest rate, and dividend yield. We recognize stock-based compensation expense related to options and restricted stock units on a straight-line basis over the service period of the award, which is generally four or five years for options and three or four years for restricted stock units, and adjust the expense each period for actual forfeitures. We recognize stock-based compensation expense related to performance stock units and our employee stock purchase plan using an accelerated attribution.

In 2022, 2023, and 2024, we granted performance-based restricted stock units that include two performance metrics under our Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") where the performance measurement period is three years. Vesting of the LTIP awards in the 2022, 2023, and 2024 plans are based on the following: (i) 75% is based on achievement of a three-year cumulative operating income, and (ii) 25% is based on our level of attainment of specified TSR targets relative to the percentage appreciation of a specified index of companies for the respective three-year periods. The vesting of LTIP awards is also subject to continued employment of the grantees through the performance period, except in the event of a qualifying termination. In order to estimate the fair value of such awards, we use a Monte Carlo Simulation valuation model for the market condition portion of the award, which uses the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant, less the present value of expected dividends when applicable, for the portion related to the performance condition.

The following table provides the classification of stock-based compensation as reflected on our condensed consolidated statements of operations:

Contract Balances

Unbilled Receivables and Contract Assets

As of August 31, 2024, billing of our long-term unbilled receivables is expected to occur as follows:


(in thousands)
2025			$	10,564
2026			20,507
2027			3,565

Total			$	34,636

Our contract assets and liabilities are reported in a net position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. We did not have any net contract assets as of August 31, 2024 or November 30, 2023.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue expected to be recognized as revenue more than one year subsequent to the balance sheet date is included in long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our deferred revenue balance is primarily made up of deferred maintenance.

The changes in net deferred revenue for the nine months ended August 31, 2024 were as follows:


(in thousands)
Balance, December 1, 2023			$	295,036
Billings and other			528,796
Revenue recognized that was deferred in prior periods			(235,649)
Revenue recognized from current period arrangements			(302,799)
Balance, August 31, 2024			$	285,384

As of August 31, 2024, transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $346 million. We expect to recognize approximately 73% of the revenue within the next year and the remainder thereafter.

Deferred Contract Costs

Certain of our sales incentive programs meet the requirements to be capitalized. Depending upon the sales incentive program and the related revenue arrangement, such capitalized costs are amortized over the longer of (i) the product life, which is generally three to five years; or (ii) the term of the related revenue contract. We determined that a three to five year product life represents the period of benefit that we receive from these incremental costs based on both qualitative and quantitative factors, which include customer contracts, industry norms, and product upgrades. Total deferred contract costs were $6.1 million and $7.6 million as of August 31, 2024 and November 30, 2023, respectively, and are included in other current assets and other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of deferred contract costs is included in sales and marketing expense on our condensed consolidated statement of operations and was minimal in all periods presented.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings per share

Earnings per share

We compute basic earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. We compute diluted earnings per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding dilutive stock options, restricted stock units, and deferred stock units, using the treasury stock method. The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share on an interim basis:


			Three Months Ended												Nine Months Ended
(in thousands, except per share data)			August 31, 2024						August 31, 2023						August 31, 2024						August 31, 2023
Net income			$	28,464					$	19,098					$	67,291					$	54,862
Weighted average shares outstanding			42,872						43,452						43,296						43,365
Basic earnings per common share			$	0.66					$	0.44					$	1.55					$	1.27

Diluted earnings per common share:
Net income			$	28,464					$	19,098					$	67,291					$	54,862
Weighted average shares outstanding			42,872						43,452						43,296						43,365
Effect of dilution from common stock equivalents			839						1,353						871						1,178
Effect of dilution from if-converted 2026 Notes			—						176						—						—
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding			43,711						44,981						44,167						44,543
Diluted earnings per share			$	0.65					$	0.42					$	1.52					$	1.23

We excluded stock awards representing approximately 560,000 and 849,000 shares of common stock from the calculation of diluted earnings per share in the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, respectively, as these awards were anti-dilutive. We excluded stock awards representing approximately 252,000 and 286,000 shares of common stock from the calculation of diluted earnings per share in the three and nine months ended August 31, 2023, respectively, as these awards were anti-dilutive.

The dilutive impact of the Notes on our calculation of diluted earnings per share is considered using the if-converted method. However, because the principal amount of the Notes must be settled in cash, the dilutive impact of applying the if-converted method is limited to the in-the-money portion, if any, of the Notes. During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, we did not include the Notes in our diluted earnings per share calculation because the conversion feature in the Notes was out of the money.

For the three months ended August 31, 2023, the average daily closing price of the Company's common stock was greater than the conversion price for the 2026 Notes outstanding as of August 31, 2023. Therefore, for this period, the Company applied the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per common share. During the nine months ended August 31, 2023, the average daily closing price of the Company's common stock was less than the conversion price for the 2026 Notes. Therefore, for this period, the 2026 Notes had no impact on the computation of diluted earnings per common share.

Our CODM is our Chief Executive Officer. We operate as one operating segment: software products to develop, deploy, and manage high-impact applications. Our CODM evaluates financial information on a consolidated basis. As we operate as one operating segment, the required financial segment information can be found in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Health Care Organizations [Abstract]
Cyber Related Matters	Cyber Related Matters November 2022 Cyber Incident Following the detection of irregular activity on certain portions of our corporate network, we engaged outside cybersecurity experts and other incident response professionals to conduct a forensic investigation and assess the extent and scope of the incident. We did not incur costs related to this incident during fiscal year 2024 and do not expect to incur additional costs as the investigation is closed. We did not incur any meaningful costs related to this cyber incident for the three months ended August 31, 2023. We incurred net expenses of $4.2 million related to this incident during the nine months ended August 31, 2023. MOVEit Vulnerability As previously reported, on the evening of May 28, 2023, we learned that our MOVEit Transfer (the on-premise version) and MOVEit Cloud (a cloud-hosted version of MOVEit Transfer) products were attacked via a “zero-day vulnerability” that could provide for unauthorized escalated privileges and access to the customer’s underlying environment (the “MOVEit Vulnerability”). A "zero-day vulnerability" is a vulnerability that has been publicly disclosed and/or exploited (e.g., by an independent researcher or threat actor) before the software vendor has an opportunity to patch it. We continue to monitor the impact of the MOVEit Vulnerability on our business, operations, and financial results. MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud represented less than 4% in aggregate of our revenue for the nine months ended August 31, 2024. Litigation and Governmental Investigations Arising from the MOVEit Vulnerability As previously reported, as a result of the MOVEit Vulnerability, we are party to certain class action lawsuits filed by individuals who claim to have been impacted by the exfiltration of data from the environments of our MOVEit Transfer customers, which the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred to the District of Massachusetts for coordinated and consolidated proceedings (the "MDL"). The MDL also includes the previously disclosed subrogation claim (where an insurer is seeking recovery for expenses incurred on behalf of its insured in connection with the MOVEit Vulnerability). Also as previously disclosed, we have also been cooperating with inquires and investigations from: (i) several domestic and foreign data privacy regulators (a number of which have been closed without regulatory action), (ii) several state attorneys general, and (iii) one formal investigation from a U.S. federal law enforcement agency (as of the date of the filing of the financial statements, this is not an enforcement action or formal governmental investigation of which we have been told that we are a target). As previously disclosed, we received a subpoena from the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Enforcement (the “SEC”) on October 2, 2023, as part of a fact-finding inquiry seeking various documents and information relating to the MOVEit Vulnerability. In a letter dated August 7, 2024, the SEC notified us that the Commission had concluded its investigation and did not intend to recommend an enforcement action against Progress (the “Termination Letter”). The Termination Letter was provided under the guidelines set out in the final paragraph of Securities Act Release No. 5310. Expenses Incurred and Future Costs For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, we incurred net costs of $0.9 million and $5.0 million, respectively, related to the MOVEit Vulnerability. The costs recognized are net of insurance recoveries of $0.6 million and $2.5 million for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2024, respectively. The timing of recognizing insurance recoveries may differ from the timing of recognizing the associated expenses. We expect to continue to incur investigation, legal and professional services expenses associated with the MOVEit Vulnerability in future periods. We will recognize these expenses as services are received, net of insurance recoveries. While a loss from these matters is reasonably possible, we cannot reasonably estimate a range of possible losses at this time, particularly while the foregoing matters remain ongoing. Furthermore, with respect to the litigation, the proceedings remain in the early stages, alleged damages have not been specified, there is uncertainty as to the likelihood of a class or classes being certified or the ultimate size of any class if certified, and there are significant factual and legal issues to be resolved. Also, each of the governmental inquiries and investigations mentioned above could result in adverse judgements, settlements, fines, penalties, or other resolutions, the amount, scope and timing of which could be material, but which we are currently unable to predict. Therefore, we have not recorded a loss contingency liability for the MOVEit Vulnerability as of August 31, 2024. In addition, we may accelerate or make additional investments in our information technology systems, infrastructure, software products or networks following the MOVEit Vulnerability, however, we currently do not expect such amounts to be material to any fiscal period. Insurance Coverage During the period when the November 2022 cyber incident and the MOVEit Vulnerability occurred, we maintained $15.0 million of cybersecurity insurance coverage, which is expected to reduce our exposure to expenses and liabilities arising from these events. As of August 31, 2024, we have recorded approximately $7.5 million in insurance recoveries, of which $2.5 million was related to the November 2022 cyber incident and $5.0 million was related to the May 2023 MOVEit Vulnerability, providing us with approximately $7.5 million of additional cybersecurity insurance coverage under the applicable policy (which is subject to a $0.5 million retention per claim). We will pursue recoveries to the maximum extent available under our insurance policies.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events On September 9, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire ShareFile from Cloud Software Group, Inc. for approximately $875 million in cash, subject to a $25 million working capital credit. The closing of the acquisition (the “Closing”) is expected to occur in the quarter ending November 30, 2024. The acquisition is expected to be funded with a combination of existing cash on hand and borrowings under our existing revolving credit facility. The acquisition will add product and service solutions to our capabilities with ShareFile’s SaaS-native, AI-powered document-centric collaboration and workflows, client portal, secure file sync and share and eSignature abilities. Our Board of Directors has approved the suspension of Progress’ quarterly dividend in connection with the Closing and plans to redirect such capital toward the repayment of debt to increase liquidity for future M&A and for share repurchases.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies	Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies - We prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete financial statements and these unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2023, as filed with the SEC on January 26, 2024 (our "2023 Annual Report"). We made no material changes in the application of our significant accounting policies that were disclosed in our 2023 Annual Report. We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as the audited financial statements included in our 2023 Annual Report, and these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and records changes in estimates in the period in which they become known. These estimates are based on historical data and experience, as well as various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates relate to revenue recognition, loss contingencies and the MOVEit Vulnerability, and business combinations. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The amendments in this update expand segment disclosure requirements, including new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment among other disclosure requirements. This update is effective for the Company in the consolidated financial statements for the year ending November 30, 2025, and interim periods beginning after December 1, 2025. The adoption of this standard only impacts disclosures and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 is intended to improve the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company beginning with the annual period ending November 30, 2026, allowing for adoption on a prospective basis or a retrospective option. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard only impacts disclosures and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In March 2024, the SEC adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-11275, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors. This rule will require registrants to disclose certain climate-related information in registration statements and annual reports. The disclosure requirements will apply to the Company's fiscal year beginning December 1, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the final rule to determine its impact on the Company's disclosures.
