On July 22, 2024, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of Envato Pty Ltd. (“Envato”) pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) entered into on May 1, 2024, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Envato (the "Envato Acquisition"). The aggregate consideration paid by the Company, after customary working capital and other adjustments in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, was $250 million.
The Envato acquisition was funded through an amended and restated credit agreement (the “A&R Credit Agreement”), which was entered into among the Company, as borrower, certain direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, the lenders party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the lenders. The A&R Credit Agreement provides for a five-year (i) senior unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) in an aggregate principal amount of $125 million and (ii) senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) in an aggregate principal amount of $250 million. The A&R Credit Agreement provides for a letter of credit subfacility and a swingline facility.
The Envato Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”).
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, as amended by SEC Final Rule Release No. 33-10786, Amendments to Financial Disclosures About Acquired and Disposed Businesses and are presented to illustrate the estimated effects of the Envato Acquisition.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
Note 1 – Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

On July 22, 2024, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of Envato Pty Ltd. (“Envato”) pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) entered into on May 1, 2024, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Envato (the "Envato Acquisition"). The aggregate consideration paid by the Company, after customary working capital and other adjustments in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, was $250 million.
The Envato acquisition was funded through an amended and restated credit agreement (the “A&R Credit Agreement”), which was entered into among the Company, as borrower, certain direct and indirect subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, the lenders party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the lenders. The A&R Credit Agreement provides for a five-year (i) senior unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”) in an aggregate principal amount of $125 million and (ii) senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) in an aggregate principal amount of $250 million. The A&R Credit Agreement provides for a letter of credit subfacility and a swingline facility.
The Envato Acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”).
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, as amended by SEC Final Rule Release No. 33-10786, Amendments to Financial Disclosures About Acquired and Disposed Businesses and are presented to illustrate the estimated effects of the Envato Acquisition.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024, was prepared as if the Envato Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2024.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is derived from the historical financial statements of Shutterstock and Envato, and should be read in conjunction with:

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what Shutterstock’s results of operations would have been had the Envato Acquisition occurred on the date indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of what the financial position or results of operations of the combined company will be in future periods. The historical financial information has been adjusted to reflect transaction related adjustments that management believes are necessary to present fairly Shutterstock’s pro forma results of operations following the closing of the Envato Acquisition for the period indicated. Additionally, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations does not reflect any benefits that may result from potential revenue enhancements, anticipated cost savings and expense efficiencies or other synergies that may be achieved from the transaction.

Envato's financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). There were no material adjustments required to convert these financial statements to United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The pro forma adjustments include certain reclassifications to conform Envato’s historical accounting presentation to Shutterstock’s accounting presentation. Shutterstock’s management believes that its assumptions provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the transactions and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
Note 2 – Preliminary Fair Value Allocation of Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed

The allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows (in thousands):

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed:As of July 22, 2024
Cash and cash equivalents1
$90,591 
Accounts receivable6,818 
Other assets5,404 
Right of use assets273 
Fixed assets895 
Intangible assets:
Trademark31,000 
Developed technology61,000 
Customer relationships14,200 
Intangible assets, net106,200 
Deferred tax asset37,350 
Total assets acquired247,531 
Accounts payable4,173 
Contributor royalties payable11,917 
Accrued expenses30,233 
Deferred revenue46,888 
Other liabilities1
71,487 
Lease liability190 
Total liabilities assumed164,888 
Net assets acquired82,643 
Purchase consideration250,215 
Goodwill167,572 
1Envato’s cash includes $63.4 million for the funding of Envato obligations that were triggered upon the closing of the acquisition (the “Envato Seller Obligations”). These obligations are also reported as assumed liabilities within Other liabilities. The Envato Obligations would not have been incurred had the acquisition not closed, and are presented “on-the-line” because they are not reflected in either the acquirer’s or acquiree’s statement of operations.

The purchased assets included identifiable intangible assets, comprised of trademark, developed technology and customer relationships, which have weighted average useful lives of approximately 10 years, 5 years and 6 years, respectively. Fair values of the trademark and developed technology were determined using the relief-from-royalty method, and the fair value of the customer relationships was determined using the excess of earnings method. Determining the fair value requires management to use significant judgement and estimates, including revenue growth rates, the royalty rate and the discount rate, and the economic life related to developed technology and revenue growth rates, the royalty rate, and the discount rate related to the trademark, among others. The goodwill arising from the transaction is primarily attributable to expected operational synergies and is not deductible for income tax purposes.
