Notes to Consolidated and Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
Wayfair Inc. (the "Company") is one of the world's largest online destinations for the home. Through its e-commerce business model, the Company offers visually inspired browsing, compelling merchandising, easy product discovery and attractive prices for over fourteen million products from over 11,000 suppliers.
The consolidated and condensed financial statements and other disclosures contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are those of the Company. The consolidated and condensed balance sheet data as of December 31, 2018 was derived from audited financial statements. The accompanying consolidated and condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2019, the consolidated and condensed statements of operations, consolidated and condensed statements of comprehensive loss, consolidated and condensed statements of stockholders' deficit, and consolidated and condensed statements of cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 are unaudited. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2019 and statements of operations, comprehensive loss, statements of stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The financial data and the other information disclosed in these notes to the consolidated and condensed financial statements related to these periods are unaudited.
The consolidated and condensed statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the period ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations and cash flows that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019, or for any other period.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company has identified the significant accounting policies that are critical to understanding its business and results of operations.
Leases
The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases" ("ASU 2016-02") on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. The Company also elected the package of practical expedients, which among other things, allowed the Company to carryforward historical lease classification. The adoption of the standard resulted in (1) the derecognition of building assets and finance lease obligations for certain leases that did not pass the sale-leaseback criteria, (2) the derecognition of construction in progress assets and other long-term liabilities for certain lease arrangements whereby the Company is no longer considered the deemed construction owner of the construction projects, and (3) the recognition of operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities for lease arrangements with an initial term greater than twelve months.
Adoption of ASU 2016-02 resulted in the following adjustments to the balance sheet (in thousands):

The adoption of the standard did not have a notable impact on the Company's liquidity or a materially adverse impact on the Company's debt covenant compliance.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in "Operating lease right-of-use assets," "Other current liabilities," and "Operating lease liabilities" on our consolidated and condensed balance sheets. As of September 30, 2019, the Company has not entered into material financing lease arrangements.
Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that management will exercise that option. The Company has lease arrangements with lease and non-lease components. For the Company's warehouse and fulfillment center lease arrangements, the Company accounts for lease and non-lease components separately. For all other lease arrangements, the Company accounts for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.
Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The determination of the Company’s incremental borrowing rate requires judgment. The incremental borrowing rate for each lease is primarily based on publicly-available information for companies within the same industry and with similar credit profiles. The rate is then adjusted for the impact of collateralization, the lease term and other specific terms included in the Company’s lease arrangements. The incremental borrowing rate was determined at lease commencement, or as of January 1, 2019 for operating leases existing upon adoption of ASC 842. The incremental borrowing rate is subsequently reassessed upon a modification to the lease arrangement. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made prior to commencement date and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. ROU assets are subsequently assessed for impairment in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy for long-lived assets.
Stock Compensation
The Company adopted ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting ("ASU 2018-07") on January 1, 2019. The ASU simplifies aspects of share-based compensation issued to non-employees by making the guidance consistent with the accounting for employee share-based compensation. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 did not have a material impact the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders' deficit or cash flows.
Hosting Arrangements
In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance related to a customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in hosting arrangements. The guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in cloud computing arrangements with the requirements for capitalizing costs to develop or obtain internal-use software. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. This guidance may be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. The Company early adopted the guidance on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2019. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders' deficit or cash flows.
The Company believes that other than the implementation of ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2018-07, there have been no significant changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 to the items disclosed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, included in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.
3. Marketable Securities and Fair Value Measurements
Marketable Securities
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, all of the Company’s marketable securities were classified as available-for-sale and their estimated fair values were $6.0 million and $120.8 million, respectively. The Company periodically reviews its available-for-sale securities for other-than-temporary impairment. The Company considers factors such as the duration, severity and the reason for the decline in value, the potential recovery period, and its intent to sell. As of September 30, 2019, the Company’s available-for-sale securities primarily consisted of corporate bonds and other government obligations that are priced at fair value. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary impairment losses. The maturities of the Company’s long-term marketable securities generally range from one to two years. The cost basis of a marketable security sold is determined by the Company using the specific identification method. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not have any realized gains or losses.
The following tables present details of the Company’s marketable securities as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (in thousands):

Fair Value Measurements
The Company's financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value, which is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
|
|
▪
|
Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
|
|
|
▪
|
Level 2—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full-term of the asset or liability
|
|
|
▪
|
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability
|
This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. The Company measures its cash equivalents and short-term and long-term investments at fair value. The Company classifies its cash equivalents and restricted cash within Level 1 because the Company values these investments using quoted market prices. The fair value of the Company's Level 1 financial assets is based on quoted market prices of the identical underlying security. The Company classifies short-term and long-term investments within Level 2 because unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets are not active. The Company does not have any assets or liabilities classified as Level 3 financial assets.
The following tables set forth the fair value of the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 based on the three-tier value hierarchy (in thousands):

As of September 30, 2019, the Company has entered into $332.6 million of additional operating leases, primarily related to build-to-suit warehouse leases that have not yet commenced. As the Company does not control the underlying assets during the construction period, the Company is not considered the owner of the construction projects for accounting purposes. These operating leases will commence between 2019 and 2021 with lease terms of 2 to 15 years.
Before Adoption of ASU 2016-02
The Company established assets and liabilities for the estimated construction costs incurred under lease arrangements where the Company is considered the owner for accounting purposes only to the extent the Company is involved in the construction of structural improvements or takes construction risk prior to commencement of a lease. These are referred to as "build-to-suit leases". Upon occupancy of facilities under build-to-suit leases, the Company assesses whether these arrangements qualify for sales recognition under the sale-leaseback accounting guidance. If the Company continues to be the deemed owner, the facilities are accounted for as financing leases.
In the year ended December 31, 2018, the construction efforts related to three warehouse lease arrangements were completed. In the first warehouse lease arrangement, the Company concluded it had a letter of credit of $2.5 million and as a result the Company did not meet the sale-leaseback criteria for derecognition of the building assets and liabilities. In both the
second and third warehouse lease arrangements, the Company provided non-recourse financing to the lessor and as a result the Company did not meet the sale-leaseback criteria for derecognition of the building assets and liabilities.
Accordingly, these leases were accounted for as financing leases and $101.0 million was recorded in "Lease financing obligation, net of current portion" and "Property and equipment, net," respectively, in the Company’s consolidated and condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2018.
7. Commitments and Contingencies
Letters of Credit
The Company has issued letters of credit for approximately $46.4 million and $26.8 million, primarily as security for certain lease agreements as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Legal Matters
On January 10, 2019 and January 16, 2019, putative securities class action complaints were filed against the Company and three of its officers in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The two complaints allege violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, relating to certain prior disclosures of the Company. Each plaintiff seeks to represent a class of shareholders who purchased or acquired stock of the Company between August 2, 2018 and October 31, 2018 and seeks damages and other relief based on allegations that the defendants' conduct affected the value of such stock. The Company intends to defend these lawsuits vigorously. On August 30, 2019 the Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint with prejudice. At this time, based on available information regarding this litigation, the Company is unable to reasonably assess the ultimate outcome of these cases or determine an estimate, or a range of estimates, of potential losses.
From time to time the Company is involved in claims that arise during the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not currently believe that the outcome of any of these other legal matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operation or financial condition. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can be costly and time consuming, as it can divert management's attention from important business matters and initiatives, negatively impacting the Company's overall operations. In addition, the Company may also find itself at greater risk to outside party claims as it increases its operations in jurisdictions where the laws with respect to the potential liability of online retailers are uncertain, unfavorable, or unclear.
8. Equity-Based Compensation
The board of directors of the Company (the "Board") adopted the 2014 Incentive Award Plan ("2014 Plan") to grant cash and equity incentive awards to eligible participants in order to attract, motivate and retain talent. The 2014 Plan is administered by the Board with respect to awards to non-employee directors and by the compensation committee of the Board with respect to other participants and provides for the issuance of stock options, stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), performance shares, stock payments, cash payments, dividend awards and other incentives. Prior to the adoption of the 2014 Plan, Wayfair LLC issued certain equity awards pursuant to the Wayfair LLC Amended and Restated Common Unit Plan (the "2010 Plan"), which was administered by the board of directors of Wayfair LLC. Awards issued under the 2010 Plan that remain outstanding currently represent Class A or Class B common stock of the Company.
8,603,066 shares of Class A common stock were initially available for issuance under awards granted pursuant to the 2014 Plan. The 2014 Plan also contains an evergreen provision whereby the shares available for future grant are increased on the first day of each calendar year beginning January 1, 2016 and ending on and including January 1, 2024. As of January 1, 2019, 6,202,378 shares of Class A common stock were available for future grant under the 2014 Plan. Shares or RSUs forfeited, withheld for minimum statutory tax obligations, and unexercised stock option lapses from the 2010 and 2014 Plans are available for future grant under the 2014 Plan.

9. Unearned Revenue
The Company has three types of contractual liabilities: (i) cash collections from its customers prior to delivery of products purchased, which are initially recorded in "Unearned revenue," and are recognized as net revenue when the products are delivered, (ii) unredeemed gift cards and store credits, which are initially recorded in "Unearned revenue," and are recognized in the period they are redeemed, and (iii) membership rewards redeemable for future purchases, which are earned by customers on purchases made with the Company's Wayfair branded, private label credit card, and are initially recorded in "Other current liabilities," and are recognized as net revenue when redeemed. The portion of gift cards and store credits not expected to be redeemed are recognized as net revenue based on historical redemption pattern, which is substantially within twenty-four months from the date of issuance.
Contractual liabilities included in "Unearned revenue" and "Other current liabilities" in the consolidated and condensed balance sheets were $151.4 million and $1.5 million at September 30, 2019 and $148.1 million and $3.1 million at December 31, 2018, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recognized $125.1 million and $1.6 million of net revenue included in "Unearned revenue" and "Other current liabilities," respectively, at December 31, 2018.
Net revenue from contracts with customers is disaggregated by Direct Retail and Other net revenue and by geographic region because this manner of disaggregation best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Refer to Note 10, Segment and Geographic Information, for additional detail.
10. Segment and Geographic Information
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated on a regular basis by the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer.
The Company's operating and reportable segments are U.S. and International. These segments reflect the way the CODM allocates resources and evaluates financial performance, which is based upon each segment's Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as loss before depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation and related taxes, interest and other income and expense, provision for income taxes, and non-recurring items. These charges are excluded from evaluation of segment performance because it facilitates reportable segment performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis.
The Company allocates certain operating expenses to the operating and reportable segments, including "Customer service and merchant fees" and "Selling, operations, technology, general and administrative" based on the usage and relative contribution provided to the segments. It excludes from the allocations certain operating expense lines, including "Depreciation and amortization," "Equity-based compensation and related taxes," "Interest expense, net," "Other (income), net," and "Provision for income taxes." There are no revenue transactions between the Company's reportable segments.
U.S.
The U.S. segment primarily consists of amounts earned through product sales through the Company's five distinct sites in the U.S. and through websites operated by third parties in the U.S.
International
The International segment primarily consists of amounts earned through product sales through the Company's international sites.
Revenue from external customers for each group of similar products and services are not reported to the CODM. Separate identification of this information for purposes of segment disclosure is impractical, as it is not readily available and the cost to develop it would be excessive. No individual country outside of the U.S. provided greater than 10% of total revenue.

U.S. and International segment assets consist primarily of "Accounts receivable," "Inventories," "Prepaid expenses and other current assets," "Property and equipment, net" and "Operating lease right-of-use assets." Corporate assets include "Cash and cash equivalents," marketable securities, "Long-term investments," corporate facilities, "Goodwill and intangible assets, net," and capitalized internal-use software and website development costs.
11. Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $0.1 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $1.5 million and $1.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The income tax expense recorded in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 is primarily related to income earned in certain foreign jurisdictions and U.S. state income taxes.
Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts as measured by tax laws. The Company has deferred tax assets related to its net operating loss carryforwards accumulated since the fourth quarter of 2014 and related to net operating loss carryforwards of certain of its foreign subsidiaries. A valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets is required if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company reassesses the valuation allowance on a quarterly basis and has provided a valuation allowance on substantially all of its worldwide net deferred tax assets.
The Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.
12. Stockholders’ Deficit
Preferred Stock
The Company authorized 10,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, for future issuance. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had no shares of undesignated preferred stock issued or outstanding.
Common Stock
The Company authorized 500,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 164,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of which 65,502,165 and 62,329,701 shares of Class A common stock and 27,372,273 and 28,417,882 shares of Class B common stock were outstanding as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The rights of the holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting and conversion rights. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share and each share of Class B common stock is entitled to ten votes per share. Each share of Class B common stock may be converted into one share of Class A common stock at the option of its holder and will be automatically converted into one share of Class A common stock upon transfer thereof, subject to certain exceptions. In addition, upon the date on which the outstanding shares of Class B common stock represent less than 10% of the aggregate number of shares of the then outstanding Class A common stock and Class B common stock, or in the event of the affirmative vote or written consent of holders of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock, all outstanding shares of Class B common stock shall convert automatically into Class A common stock. Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of funds legally available if the Board, in its discretion, determines to issue dividends and then only at the times and in the amounts that the Board may determine. Since the Company's initial public offering through September 30, 2019, 54,667,389 shares of Class B common stock were converted to Class A common stock.
13. Credit Agreement
On February 21, 2019 (the "Closing Date"), the Company, as guarantor, and Wayfair LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, as borrower (the “Borrower”) entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) with Citibank, in its capacity as administrative agent, swing line lender and letter of credit issuer, and certain other lenders party thereto. The Amended Credit Agreement replaced the Company's existing credit facility with Citibank. The Amended Credit Agreement consists of:
|
|
•
|
A secured revolving credit facility under which the Borrower may borrow up to $165 million, subject to certain sublimits, with a final maturity date of February 21, 2022 (the “Revolver”).
|
|
|
•
|
The Borrower also has the right, subject to certain customary conditions, to increase the Revolver by $50 million.
|
|
|
•
|
The Revolver has the following sublimits:
|
|
|
◦
|
a $100 million letter of credit sublimit; and
|
|
|
◦
|
a $15 million swing line sublimit.
|
The Borrower’s obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (together, the “Guarantors”). The obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors are secured by first-priority liens on substantially all of the assets of the Borrower and the Guarantors, including, with certain exceptions, all of the capital stock of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of the Company’s first-tier foreign subsidiaries.
The proceeds of the Revolver may be used to finance working capital, to refinance certain existing indebtedness and to provide funds for permitted acquisitions, repurchases of equity interests and other general corporate purposes.
Borrowings under the Revolver will bear interest through maturity at a variable rate based upon, at the Borrower’s option, either the Eurodollar rate or the base rate (which is the highest of (x) Citibank’s prime rate, (y) one-half of 1.00% in excess of the federal funds effective rate, and (z) 1.00% in excess of the one-month Eurodollar rate), plus, in each case an applicable margin. As of the Closing Date, the applicable margin for Eurodollar rate loans was 1.75% per annum and the applicable margin for base rate loans was 0.75% per annum. The applicable margin is subject to specified changes depending on the Liquidity (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) of the Company.
Any amounts outstanding under the Revolver are due at maturity. In addition, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, the Borrower is required to make certain mandatory prepayments prior to maturity.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customarily applicable to senior secured credit facilities, including covenants that, among other things, will limit or restrict the ability of the Borrower and the Guarantors, subject to negotiated exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness and additional liens on their assets, engage in mergers or acquisitions or dispose of assets, pay dividends or make other distributions, voluntarily prepay other indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliated persons, make investments, and change the nature of their businesses. The Amended Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, subject to thresholds and grace periods, including, among others, payment default, covenant default, cross default to other material indebtedness, and judgment default. In addition, the Amended Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain certain levels of Free Cash Flow (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement).
The Company did not borrow any amounts under its credit agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018.
14. Convertible Debt
On September 15, 2017, the Company issued $431.25 million aggregate principal amount of 0.375% Convertible Senior Notes due 2022 (the "2017 Notes"), which includes the exercise in full of a $56.25 million over-allotment option, to certain financial institutions as the initial purchasers of the 2017 Notes (the "2017 Initial Purchasers"). On September 11, 2017, in connection with the pricing of the 2017 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the "2017 Base Capped Call Transactions") with two of the 2017 Initial Purchasers and certain other financial institutions (the "2017 Option Counterparties") and, in connection with the exercise in full of the over-allotment option by the 2017 Initial Purchasers, on September 14, 2017, entered into additional capped call transactions (such additional capped call transactions, the "2017 Additional Capped Call Transactions” and, together with the 2017 Base Capped Call Transactions, the "2017 Capped Call Transactions") with the 2017 Option Counterparties. Collectively, the 2017 Capped Call Transactions covered, initially, the number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock underlying the 2017 Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the 2017 Notes.
On November 15, 2018, the Company amended and restated the 2017 Capped Call Transactions (the "Restated 2017 Capped Call Transactions") with each of the 2017 Option Counterparties in order to, among other things, provide that the options underlying the Restated 2017 Capped Call Transactions can, at the Company’s option, remain outstanding until September 1, 2022, which is the maturity date for the 2017 Notes, even if all or a portion of the 2017 Notes are converted, repurchased or redeemed prior to such date.
In November 2018, the Company issued $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2024 (the "2018 Notes"), which includes the exercise in full of a $75.0 million option granted to the initial purchasers, to certain financial institutions as the initial purchasers of the 2018 Notes (the "2018 Initial Purchasers"). The issuance of $500.0 million of 2018 Notes closed on November 19, 2018 and the additional $75.0 million of additional 2018 Notes, which were issued pursuant to the exercise of the 2018 Initial Purchasers' option to purchase such additional 2018 Notes, closed on November 29, 2018. On November 14, 2018, in connection with the pricing of the 2018 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the "2018 Base Capped Call Transactions") with one of the 2018 Initial Purchasers and certain other financial institutions (the "2018 Option Counterparties") and, in connection with the exercise in full of the 2018 Initial Purchasers' option to purchase such additional 2018 Notes, on November 27, 2018, entered into additional capped call transactions (such additional capped call transactions, the "2018 Additional Capped Call Transactions" and, together with the 2018 Base Capped Call Transactions, the "2018 Capped Call Transactions") with the 2018 Option Counterparties. Collectively, the 2018 Capped Call Transactions cover, initially, the number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock underlying the 2018 Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the 2018 Notes.
On August 19, 2019, the Company issued $948.75 million aggregate principal amount of 1.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2019 Notes" and together with the 2017 Notes and 2018 Notes, the "Notes"), which includes the exercise in full of a $123.75 million option granted to the initial purchasers, to certain financial institutions as the initial purchasers of the 2019 Notes (the "2019 Initial Purchasers"). On August 14, 2019, in connection with the pricing of the 2019 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the "2019 Base Capped Call Transactions") with certain of the 2019 Initial Purchasers or their affiliates and another financial institution (the "2019 Option Counterparties") and, in connection with the exercise in full of the 2019 Initial Purchasers' option to purchase such additional 2019 Notes, on August 16, 2019, entered into additional capped call transactions (such additional capped call transactions, the "2019 Additional Capped Call Transactions" and, together with the 2019 Base Capped Call Transactions, the "2019 Capped Call Transactions") with the 2019 Option Counterparties. Collectively, the 2019 Capped Call Transactions cover, initially, the number of shares of the Company’s
Class A common stock underlying the 2019 Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the 2019 Notes.
The net proceeds from the sale of the 2017 Notes, 2018 Notes, and 2019 Notes were approximately $420.4 million, $562.0 million, and $935.1 million, respectively, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and the offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company used approximately $44.2 million, $93.4 million and $145.7 million, respectively, of the net proceeds from the 2017 Notes, 2018 Notes, and 2019 Notes to pay the cost of the 2017 Capped Call Transactions, the 2018 Capped Call Transactions, and the 2019 Capped Call Transactions, respectively. The Company intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the Notes for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Company may also use a portion of the net proceeds to finance acquisitions, strategic transactions, investments or the repayment, purchase or exchange of indebtedness (including its existing convertible notes).
The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company. The Notes rank senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes; rank equal in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated; are effectively subordinated in right of payment to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and are structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries.
In accounting for the issuance of the Notes, the Company separated the Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of the liability component was calculated by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated convertible feature. The carrying amount of the equity component, representing the conversion option, which does not meet the criteria for separate accounting as a derivative as it is indexed to the Company's own stock, was determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the par value of the Notes. The difference between the principal amount of the Notes and the liability component represents the debt discount, which is recorded as a direct deduction from the related debt liability in the consolidated and condensed balance sheet and amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the Notes. The effective interest rate of the 2017 Notes, 2018 Notes, and 2019 Notes is 6.0%, 8.1%, and 6.4%, respectively. The equity component of the 2017 Notes, 2018 Notes, and 2019 Notes of approximately $95.8 million, $181.5 million, and $280.3 million, respectively, is included in additional paid-in capital in the consolidated and condensed balance sheet and is not remeasured as long as it continues to meet the conditions for equity classification. The Company allocated transaction costs related to the Notes using the same proportions as the proceeds from the Notes. Transaction costs attributable to the liability component were recorded as a direct deduction from the related debt liability in the consolidated and condensed balance sheet and amortized to interest expense over the term of the Notes, and transaction costs attributable to the equity component were netted with the equity component in shareholders’ equity.

The estimated fair value of the 2017 Notes, the 2018 Notes, and the 2019 Notes was $533.3 million, $694.3 million, and $973.9 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2019. The estimated fair value of the Notes was determined through consideration of quoted market prices. The fair value is classified as Level 2, as defined in Note 3, Marketable Securities and Fair Value Measurements. As of September 30, 2019, the if-converted value of the 2017 Notes exceeded the principal amount by $33.4 million. The if-converted value of both the 2018 and 2019 Notes did not exceed the principal value as of September 30, 2019.
2017 Notes
The 2017 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated September 15, 2017 (the "2017 Indenture"), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Company pays interest on the 2017 Notes semiannually in arrears at a rate of 0.375% per annum on March 1 and September 1 of each year. The 2017 Notes are convertible based upon an initial conversion rate of 9.61 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2017 Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $104.06 per share of the Company’s Class A common stock). The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including certain distributions and dividends to all or substantially all of the holders of the Company’s Class A common stock, but will not be adjusted for accrued and unpaid interest. The Company will settle any conversions of the 2017 Notes in cash, shares of the Company’s Class A common stock or a combination thereof, with the form of consideration determined at the Company’s election.
The 2017 Notes will mature on September 1, 2022, unless earlier purchased, redeemed or converted. Prior to June 1, 2022, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2017 Notes only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the 5 business day period after any 10 consecutive trading day period (the "2017 Notes measurement period") in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2017 Notes for each trading day of the 2017 Notes measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (3) with respect to any 2017 Notes called for redemption by the Company, at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On and after June 1, 2022 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their 2017 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Holders of 2017 Notes who convert their 2017 Notes in connection with a notice of a redemption or a make-whole fundamental change (each as defined in the 2017 Indenture) may be entitled to a premium in the form of an increase in the conversion rate of the 2017 Notes.
The 2017 Notes are not convertible during the fourth quarter of 2019 and none of the 2017 Notes has been converted to date.
The Company may not redeem the 2017 Notes prior to September 8, 2020. On or after September 8, 2020, the Company may redeem for cash all or part of the 2017 Notes if the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including at least one of the five trading days immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption, during
any 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of the redemption. The redemption price will be 100% of the principal amount of the 2017 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the 2017 Indenture), holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 2017 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2017 Notes to be repurchased plus any accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.
The 2017 Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2017 Notes then outstanding may declare the entire principal amount of all the 2017 Notes plus accrued interest, if any, to be immediately due and payable.
2018 Notes
The 2018 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated November 19, 2018 (the "2018 Indenture"), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Company will pay interest on the 2018 Notes semiannually in arrears at a rate of 1.125% per annum on May 1 and November 1 of each year commencing on May 1, 2019. The 2018 Notes are convertible based upon an initial conversion rate of 8.5910 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2018 Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $116.40 per share of the Company’s Class A common stock). The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including certain distributions and dividends to all or substantially all of the holders of the Company’s Class A common stock, but will not be adjusted for accrued and unpaid interest. The Company will settle any conversions of the 2018 Notes in cash, shares of the Company’s Class A common stock or a combination thereof, with the form of consideration determined at the Company’s election.
The 2018 Notes will mature on November 1, 2024, unless earlier purchased, redeemed or converted. Prior to August 1, 2024, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2018 Notes only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (the "2018 Notes measurement period") in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2018 Notes for each trading day of the 2018 Notes measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (3) with respect to any 2018 Notes called for redemption by the Company, at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On and after August 1, 2024 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their 2018 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Holders of 2018 Notes who convert their 2018 Notes in connection with a make-whole fundamental change or a notice of redemption (each as defined in the 2018 Indenture) may be entitled to a premium in the form of an increase in the conversion rate of the 2018 Notes.
The 2018 Notes are not convertible during the fourth quarter of 2019 and none of the 2018 Notes has been converted to date.
The Company may not redeem the 2018 Notes prior to May 8, 2022. On or after May 8, 2022, the Company may redeem for cash all or part of the 2018 Notes if the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including at least one of the five trading days immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of the redemption. The redemption price will be 100% of the principal amount of the 2018 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the 2018 Indenture), holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 2018 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2018 Notes to be repurchased plus any accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.
The 2018 Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2018 Notes then outstanding may declare the entire principal amount of all the 2018 Notes plus accrued interest, if any, to be immediately due and payable.
2019 Notes
The 2019 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated August 19, 2019 (the "2019 Indenture"), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Company will pay interest on the 2019 Notes semiannually in arrears at a rate of 1.00% per annum on February 15 and August 15 of each year commencing on February 15, 2020. The 2019 Notes are convertible based upon an initial conversion rate of 6.7349 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $148.48 per share of the Company’s Class A common stock). The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including certain distributions and dividends to all or substantially all of the holders of the Company’s Class A common stock, but will not be adjusted for accrued and unpaid interest. The Company will settle any conversions of the 2019 Notes in cash, shares of the Company’s Class A common stock or a combination thereof, with the form of consideration determined at the Company’s election.
The 2019 Notes will mature on August 15, 2026, unless earlier purchased, redeemed or converted. Prior to May 15, 2026, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2019 Notes only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on December 31, 2019 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (the “2019 Notes measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes for each trading day of the 2019 Notes measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (3) with respect to any 2019 Notes called for redemption by the Company, at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On and after May 15, 2026 until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their 2019 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Holders of 2019 Notes who convert their 2019 Notes in connection with a make-whole fundamental change or a notice of redemption (each as defined in the 2019 Indenture) may be entitled to a premium in the form of an increase in the conversion rate of the 2019 Notes.
The 2019 Notes are not convertible during the fourth quarter of 2019 and none of the 2019 Notes has been converted to date.
The Company may not redeem the 2019 Notes prior to August 20, 2023. On or after August 20, 2023, the Company may redeem for cash all or part of the 2019 Notes if the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including at least one of the five trading days immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of the redemption. The redemption price will be 100% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the 2019 Indenture), holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 2019 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes to be repurchased plus any accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.
The 2019 Indenture contains customary terms and covenants, including that upon certain events of default occurring and continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes then outstanding may declare the entire principal amount of all the 2019 Notes plus accrued interest, if any, to be immediately due and payable.
Capped Call Transactions
The Restated 2017 Capped Call Transactions, 2018 Capped Call Transactions, and 2019 Capped Call Transactions (collectively, the "Capped Call Transactions") are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution and/or offset the cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the Notes upon conversion of the Notes in the event that the market price per share of the Company’s Class A common stock is greater than the strike price of the Capped Call Transactions (which initially corresponds to the initial conversion price of the Notes and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions), with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap based on the cap price of the Capped Call Transactions. The Restated 2017 Capped Call Transactions have an initial cap price of $154.16 per share of the Company’s Class A common stock, which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock on September 11, 2017, which is the date the 2017 Notes priced, and is subject to certain adjustments
under the terms of the Restated 2017 Capped Call Transactions. The 2018 Capped Call Transactions have an initial cap price of $219.63 per share of the Company’s Class A common stock, which represents a premium of 150% over the last reported sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock on November 14, 2018, which is the day the 2018 Notes priced, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the 2018 Capped Call Transactions. The 2019 Capped Call Transactions have an initial cap price of $280.15 per share of the Company's Class A common stock, which represents a premium of 150% over the last reported sale price of the Company's Class A common stock on August 14, 2019, which is the day the 2019 Notes priced, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the 2019 Capped Call Transactions. Collectively, the Capped Call Transactions cover, initially, the number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock underlying the Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Notes.
The Capped Call Transactions are separate transactions, in each case, entered into by the Company with the 2017 Option Counterparties, the 2018 Option Counterparties, and 2019 Option Counterparties, and are not part of the terms of the Notes and will not affect any holder’s rights under the Notes. Holders of the Notes will not have any rights with respect to the Capped Call Transactions. The Capped Call Transactions do not meet the criteria for separate accounting as a derivative as they are indexed to the Company's stock. The premiums paid for the Capped Call Transactions have been included as a net reduction to additional paid-in capital within shareholders’ equity.
15. Net Loss per Share
Basic and diluted net loss per share is presented using the two-class method required for participating securities: Class A and Class B common stock. The rights of the holders of Class A and Class B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting and conversion. For more information on the rights of Class A and Class B common stockholders, see Note 12, Stockholders’ Deficit.
Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and, if dilutive, common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. The Company's common stock equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the release of restricted stock units, and to a lesser extent, the incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and unvested restricted stock. The dilutive effect of these common stock equivalents is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. The Company's basic and diluted net loss per share are the same because the Company has generated net loss and common stock equivalents are excluded from diluted net loss per share because they have an antidilutive impact.
The Company allocates undistributed earnings between the classes on a one-to-one basis when computing net loss per share. As a result, basic and diluted net loss per Class A and Class B shares are equivalent.

Dilutive common stock equivalents, representing potentially dilutive common stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units, of 7.9 million and 7.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, were excluded from diluted earnings per share calculations for these periods because of their anti-dilutive effect. Furthermore, the shares of Class A common stock that would be issuable if the Company elects to settle the Notes in shares were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation (using the if-converted method) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
The Company may settle the conversions of the Notes in cash, shares of the Company's Class A common stock or any combination thereof at its election. For the 2017 Notes, the number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock issuable at the conversion price of $104.06 per share is expected to be 4.1 million shares, for the 2018 Notes, the number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock issuable at the conversion price of $116.40 is expected to be 4.9 million shares, and for the 2019 Notes, the number of shares of the Company's Class A common stock issuable at the conversion price of $148.48 is expected to be 6.4 million shares. However, the Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential
dilution of the Company's Class A common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset the cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the Notes. Under the Restated 2017 Capped Call Transactions, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable at the conversion price of $154.16 is expected to be 2.8 million. Under the 2018 Capped Call Transactions, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable at the conversion price of $219.63 is expected to be 2.6 million shares. Under the 2019 Capped Call Transactions, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable at the conversion price of $280.15 is expected to be 3.4 million shares. For more information on the Notes and the Capped Call Transactions, see Note 14, Convertible Debt.
16. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Credit Impairment
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). This ASU revises how entities account for credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. For public entities, ASU 2016-13 is required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders' deficit or cash flows.
