1.    Basis of Presentation
Commvault Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Commvault," "we," "us," or "our") provides its customers with a data protection platform that helps them secure, defend and recover their most precious asset, their data. We provide these products and services for their data across the following environments: on-premises, hybrid, or multi-cloud. Our data protection offerings are delivered via self-managed software, software-as-a-service (SaaS), integrated appliances, or managed by partners. Customers use our technology to protect themselves from threats like ransomware and recover their data efficiently.

The consolidated financial statements of Commvault as of September 30, 2023 and for the three and six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited, and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2023. The results reported in these financial statements should not necessarily be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported in our balance sheets and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each of our periods presented are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for revenue recognition, income taxes and related reserves, deferred commissions and goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Reclassification of Prior Year Balances
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on the amount of total revenues or net income. Beginning in fiscal 2024, the software and services line items on the consolidated statements of operations, related to revenues and cost of revenues, will be presented in the following categories:

Subscription - The amounts on this line include the revenues and costs of recurring time-based arrangements, including the software portion of term-based licenses and SaaS offerings. The software component of term-based licenses is typically recognized when the software is delivered or made available for download. For SaaS offerings, revenue is generally recognized ratably over the contract term beginning on the date that the service is made available to the customer.
Perpetual license - The amounts on this line include the revenues and costs from the sale of perpetual software licenses. Perpetual software license revenue is typically recognized when the software is delivered or made available for download.

Customer support - The amounts on this line include customer support revenues and costs associated with our software products. Customer support includes software updates on a when-and-if-available basis, telephone support, integrated web-based support, and other premium support offerings, for both subscription software and perpetual software license arrangements. Customer support revenue is typically recognized ratably over the term of the customer support agreement.

(In thousands, except per share data)

Other services - The amounts included on this line consist primarily of revenues and costs related to professional service offerings, including consultation, assessment and design, installation services, and customer education. Revenues related to other professional services are typically recognized as the services are performed.
Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Standards
There were no recently adopted accounting standards that had a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures, and no recently issued accounting standards that are expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures.
Concentration of Credit Risk
We grant credit to customers in a wide variety of industries worldwide and generally do not require collateral. Historically, credit losses relating to these customers have been minimal.
Sales through our distribution agreement with Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, Inc. (“Arrow”) totaled 35% and 36% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 36% for both the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Arrow accounted for approximately 25% and 34% of total accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively.
Sales through our distribution agreement with Carahsoft Technology Corp. resulted in approximately 15% of total accounts receivable as of September 30, 2023.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of our cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. Our cash equivalents balance consists primarily of U.S. Treasury Bills with maturities of one month or less.
The following table summarizes the composition of our financial assets measured at fair value at September 30, 2023:
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Cash equivalents $ 24,903  —  —  $ 24,903 

There were no financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022.
Equity Securities Accounted for at Net Asset Value
We held equity interests in private equity funds of $6,659 as of September 30, 2023, which are accounted for under the net asset value practical expedient as permitted under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. These investments are included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The net asset values of these investments are determined using quarterly capital statements from the funds, which are based on our contributions to the funds, allocation of profit and loss and changes in fair value of the underlying fund investments. Changes in fair value as reported on the capital statements are recorded through the consolidated statements of operations as non-operating income or expense. These private equity funds focus on making investments in key technology sectors, principally by investing in companies at expansion capital and growth equity stages. We had total unfunded commitments in private equity funds of $3,501 as of September 30, 2023.
Deferred Commissions Cost
Sales commissions, bonuses, and related payroll taxes earned by our employees are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Our typical contracts include performance obligations related to term-based software licenses, SaaS offerings, perpetual software licenses, software updates, and customer support. In these contracts, incremental costs of obtaining a contract are allocated to the performance obligations based on the relative estimated standalone selling prices and then recognized on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer of the goods or services to which the asset relates. We do not pay commissions on annual renewals of customer support contracts for perpetual licenses. The costs allocated to software and products are expensed at the time of sale, when revenue for the functional software license or appliance is recognized.

(In thousands, except per share data)

The costs allocated to software updates and customer support for perpetual licenses are amortized ratably over a period of approximately five years, the expected period of benefit of the asset capitalized. We currently estimate a period of five years is appropriate based on consideration of historical average customer life and the estimated useful life of the underlying software sold as part of the transaction. The commission paid on the renewal of subscription arrangements is not commensurate with the commission paid on the initial purchase. As a result, the cost of commissions allocated to as-a-service subscription offerings, software updates and customer support on the initial term-based software license transactions are amortized over a period of approximately five years, consistent with the accounting for these costs associated with perpetual licenses. The costs of commissions allocated to as-a-service offerings, software updates and support for the renewal of term-based software licenses is limited to the contractual period of the arrangement, as we pay a commensurate renewal commission upon the next renewal of the subscription software license and related updates and support.

The incremental costs attributable to professional services are generally amortized over the period the related services are provided and revenue is recognized. Amortization expense related to these costs is included in sales and marketing expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
3.    Revenue
We derive revenues from various sources, including subscriptions, perpetual software licenses, customer support contracts and other services.
Subscription
Subscription includes the revenues derived from time-based arrangements, including the software portion of term-based licenses and SaaS offerings. The software component of term-based licenses is typically recognized when the software is delivered or made available for download. The term of our subscription arrangements is typically one to three years, but can range between one and five years. For SaaS offerings, revenue is generally recognized ratably over the contract term beginning on the date that the service is made available to the customer.
Perpetual License
Perpetual license includes the revenues from the sale of perpetual software licenses. Perpetual software license revenue is typically recognized when the software is delivered or made available for download.
Customer Support
Customer support includes revenues associated with support contracts tied to our software products. Customer support includes software updates on a when-and-if-available basis, telephone support, integrated web-based support, and other premium support offerings, for both subscription software and perpetual software license arrangements. We sell our customer support contracts as a percentage of net software purchases. Customer support revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the customer support agreement, which is typically one year on our perpetual licenses and over the term on our term-based licenses.
Other Services
Other services consist primarily of revenues related to professional service offerings, including consultation, assessment and design, installation services, and customer education. Revenues related to other professional services are typically recognized as the services are performed.
We do not customize our software licenses (both perpetual and term-based) and installation services are not required. Software licenses are delivered before related services are provided and are functional without professional services, updates and technical support. We have concluded that our software licenses (both perpetual and term-based) are functional intellectual property that is distinct, as the user can benefit from the software on its own. Revenues for both perpetual and term-based licenses are typically recognized when the software is delivered and/or made available for download as this is the point the user of the software can direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the functional intellectual property. We do not recognize subscription revenue related to the renewal of that subscription earlier than the beginning of the new subscription period.

We also offer appliances that integrate our software with hardware and address a wide-range of business needs and use cases, ranging from support for remote or branch offices with limited IT staff up to large corporate data centers. Our appliances are almost exclusively sold via a software only model in which we sell software to a third party, which assembles an integrated appliance that is sold to end user customers. As a result, the revenues and costs associated with hardware are usually not included in our financial statements.
Our typical performance obligations include the following:

Education services When the class is taught (point in time)

Observable in transactions without multiple performance obligations

Judgments related to revenue recognition
Most of our contracts contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, we evaluate and account for individual performance obligations separately if they are determined to be distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices of software licenses (both perpetual and term-based) are typically estimated using the residual approach. Standalone selling prices for SaaS, customer support contracts, and other services are typically estimated based on observable transactions when these services are sold on a standalone basis. We recognize revenue net of sales tax.

Disaggregation of Revenues

We disaggregate revenues from contracts with customers into geographical regions. Our Americas region includes the United States, Canada, and Latin America. Our International region primarily includes Europe, Middle East, Africa, Australia, India, Southeast Asia, and China.
Three Months Ended September 30, Six Months Ended September 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022
Americas $ 120,300  $ 116,191  $ 242,424  $ 238,800 
International 80,697  71,866  156,723  147,238 
Total revenues $ 200,997  $ 188,057  $ 399,147  $ 386,038 


Remaining Performance Obligations

Remaining performance obligations represent expected future revenues from existing contracts where performance obligations are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at the end of the reporting period. As of September 30, 2023, our remaining performance obligations (inclusive of deferred revenues) were $547,762 of which approximately 64% is expected to be recognized as revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder recognized thereafter. The vast majority of these revenues consist of customer support, other services and SaaS arrangements. Other services consists primarily of professional services revenue which is contingent upon a number of factors, including customers' needs and scheduling.

The amount of revenue recognized in the period that was included in the opening deferred revenue balance was $85,420 and $193,365 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The amount of revenue recognized from performance obligations satisfied in prior periods was not significant.

Information about Contract Balances

Amounts collected in advance of services being provided are accounted for as deferred revenue. Nearly all of our deferred revenue balance is related to customer support, SaaS arrangements, and other services.

In some arrangements we allow customers to pay for term-based software licenses and products over the term of the software license. Amounts recognized as revenue in excess of amounts billed are recorded as unbilled receivables. Unbilled receivables, which are anticipated to be invoiced in the next twelve months, are included in accounts receivable on the consolidated balance sheets. Long-term unbilled receivables are included in other assets. The opening and closing balances of our accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, and deferred revenues are as follows:
Accounts receivable Unbilled receivable
(current)
Unbilled receivable
(long-term)
Deferred revenue
(current)
Deferred revenue
(long-term)
Opening balance as of March 31, 2023
$ 188,736  $ 21,705  $ 9,867  $ 307,562  $ 174,393 
Increase (decrease), net (17,607) 3,600  1,954  (2,585) (332)
Ending balance as of September 30, 2023
$ 171,129  $ 25,305  $ 11,821  $ 304,977  $ 174,061 

The net decrease in accounts receivable (inclusive of unbilled receivables) is a result of a decrease in revenues relative to the fourth quarter of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in deferred revenue is primarily the result of the decrease in customer support contract billings, partially offset by an increase in SaaS contracts which are billed upfront but recognized ratably over the contract period.

4.    Assets Held for Sale
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, we entered into an agreement to sell our owned corporate headquarters in Tinton Falls, New Jersey for $40,000 in cash consideration and determined the assets and land related to headquarters met the criteria for classification as assets held for sale in accordance with ASC 360, Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The property's estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell, is $38,680. The sale is expected to close in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Upon closing of the transaction, we will enter into a lease for a portion of the premises.

5.    Net Income per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the vesting of restricted stock units, shares to be purchased under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP"), and the exercise of stock options. The dilutive effect of such potential common shares is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of basic and diluted net income per common share:
Three Months Ended September 30, Six Months Ended September 30,
2023 2022 2023 2022
Net income $ 13,017  $ 4,518  $ 25,646  $ 8,029 
Basic net income per common share:
Basic weighted average shares outstanding 43,949  44,759  44,003  44,751 
Basic net income per common share $ 0.30  $ 0.10  $ 0.58  $ 0.18 
Diluted net income per common share:
Basic weighted average shares outstanding 43,949  44,759  44,003  44,751 
Dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock units 954  781  1,007  994 
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding 44,903  45,540  45,010  45,745 
Diluted net income per common share $ 0.29  $ 0.10  $ 0.57  $ 0.18 

The diluted weighted average shares outstanding exclude restricted stock units, performance restricted stock units, shares to be purchased under the ESPP and outstanding stock options totaling 498 and 882 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 526 and 523 for the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

6.    Commitments and Contingencies
We do not believe that we are currently party to any pending legal action that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business or operating results.

7.    Capitalization
Our stock repurchase program has been funded by our existing cash and cash equivalent balances, as well as cash flows provided by our operations.

On April 20, 2023, the Board of Directors (the "Board") approved an increase of the existing share repurchase program so that $250,000 was available. The Board's authorization has no expiration date. For the six months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased $82,357 of our common stock, or approximately 1,221 shares. The remaining amount available under the current authorization as of September 30, 2023 was $173,609.

8.    Stock Plans
The following table presents the stock-based compensation expense included in cost of revenues, sales and marketing, research and development, general and administrative and restructuring expenses for the three and six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Stock-based compensation is attributable to restricted stock units, performance-based awards and the ESPP.
  Three Months Ended September 30, Six Months Ended September 30,
  2023 2022 2023 2022
Cost of revenues $ 1,599  $ 1,226  $ 3,289  $ 2,469

Restructuring —  —  —  1,287 
Stock-based compensation expense $ 23,615  $ 25,327  $ 47,339  $ 56,422 
As of September 30, 2023, there was $123,069 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.72 years. We account for forfeitures as they occur. To the extent that awards are forfeited, stock-based compensation will be different from our current estimate.
Stock option activity was not significant for both the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.
Restricted Stock Units
Restricted stock unit activity for the six months ended September 30, 2023 was as follows:
Non-vested Restricted Stock Units Number of
Awards

In the six months ended September 30, 2023, we granted 120 performance restricted stock units ("PSUs") to certain executives. Vesting of these awards is contingent upon i) us meeting certain non-GAAP performance goals (performance-based) in fiscal 2024 and ii) our customary service periods. The awards vest over three years and have the potential to vest between 0% and 200% (240 shares) based on actual fiscal 2024 performance. The vesting quantity of these awards may vary based on actual fiscal 2024 performance. The related stock-based compensation expense is determined based on the value of the underlying shares on the date of grant and is recognized over the vesting term using the accelerated method. During the interim financial periods, management estimates the probable number of PSUs that would vest until the ultimate achievement of the performance goals is known. The awards are included in the restricted stock unit table.
Awards with a Market Condition
In the six months ended September 30, 2023, we granted 120 market performance stock units to certain executives. The vesting of these awards is contingent upon us meeting certain total shareholder return ("TSR") levels as compared to the Russell 3000 market index over the next three years. The awards vest in three annual tranches and have the potential to vest between 0% and 200% (240 shares) based on TSR performance. The related stock-based compensation expense is determined based on the estimated fair value of the underlying shares on the date of grant and is recognized using the accelerated method over the vesting term. The estimated fair value was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The fair value of the awards granted during the six months ended September 30, 2023 was $87.90 per unit. The awards are included in the restricted stock unit table.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The ESPP is a shareholder approved plan under which substantially all employees may purchase our common stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market values of the stock as of the beginning or the end of six-month offering periods. An employee’s payroll deductions under the ESPP are limited to 10% of the employee’s salary and employees may not purchase more than $25 of stock during any calendar year. Employees purchased 96 shares in exchange for $5,164 of proceeds in the six months ended September 30, 2023, and 107 shares in exchange for $5,418 of proceeds in the six months ended September 30, 2022. The ESPP is considered compensatory and the fair value of the discount and look back provision are estimated using the Black-Scholes formula and recognized over the six-month withholding period prior to purchase. The total expense associated with the ESPP for the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $1,662 and $1,927, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, there was approximately $1,091 of unrecognized cost related to the current offering period of our ESPP.

9.    Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $5,720 and $12,596 in the three and six months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, compared to expense of $5,135 and $8,840 in the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The increase in income tax expense relative to the prior year relates primarily to current federal and state taxes driven by the increase of pre-tax income relative to the prior year quarter. We believe that it is more likely than not that we will not realize the benefits of our gross deferred tax assets and therefore continue to record a valuation allowance to reduce the carrying value of these gross deferred tax assets, net of the impact of the reversal of taxable temporary differences, to zero as of September 30, 2023.

10.    Revolving Credit Facility
On December 13, 2021, we entered into a five-year $100,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The Credit Facility is available for share repurchases, general corporate purposes, and letters of credit. The Credit Facility contains financial maintenance covenants, including a leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains certain customary events of default which would permit the lender to, among other things, declare all loans then outstanding to be immediately due and payable if such default is not cured within applicable grace periods. The Credit Facility also limits our ability to incur certain additional indebtedness, create or permit liens on assets, make acquisitions, make investments, loans or advances, sell or transfer assets, pay dividends or distributions, and engage in certain transactions with foreign affiliates. Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 1.25% subject to increases based on our actual leverage. The unused balance on the Credit Facility is also subject to a 0.25% annual interest charge subject to increases based on our actual leverage. As of September 30, 2023, there were no borrowings under the Credit Facility and we were in compliance with all covenants.
We have deferred the expense related to debt issuance costs, which are classified as other assets, and will amortize the costs into interest expense over the term of the Credit Facility. Unamortized amounts at September 30, 2023 were $370. The amortization of debt issuance costs and interest expense incurred was $93 for both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and $185 for both the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
You should read the following discussion and analysis along with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The statements in this discussion regarding our expectations of our future performance, liquidity and capital resources, and other non-historical statements are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, changes in demand as well as the risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any forward-looking statements.
Overview
Incorporated in Delaware in 1996, Commvault Systems, Inc. provides its customers with a data protection platform that helps them secure, defend and recover their most precious asset, their data. We provide these products and services for their data across the following environments: on-premises, hybrid, or multi-cloud. Our data protection offerings are delivered via self-managed software, software-as-a-service (SaaS), integrated appliances, or managed by partners. Customers use our technology to protect themselves from threats like ransomware and recover their data efficiently.
    
Sources of Revenues
We generate revenues through subscription arrangements, perpetual software licenses, customer support contracts and other services. A significant portion of our total revenues comes from subscription arrangements, which include both sales of term-based licenses and SaaS offerings. We are focused on these types of recurring revenue arrangements.
We expect our subscription arrangements will continue to generate revenues from the renewals of term-based licenses and SaaS offerings sold in prior years. Any of our pricing models (capacity, instance based, etc.) can be sold via a subscription arrangement, either through term-based licensing or hosted services. In term-based license arrangements, the customer has the right to use the software over a designated period of time. The capacity of the license is fixed and the customer has made an unconditional commitment to pay. Software revenue in these arrangements is generally recognized when the software is delivered. In SaaS offerings, revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period.
We sell to end-user customers both directly through our sales force and indirectly through our global network of value-added reseller partners, systems integrators, corporate resellers and original equipment manufacturers. Subscription revenue generated through indirect distribution channels accounted for approximately 90% of total subscription revenue in both the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Subscription revenue generated through direct distribution channels accounted for approximately 10% of total subscription revenue in both the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Deals initiated by our direct sales force are sometimes transacted through indirect channels based on end-user customer requirements, which are not always in our control and can cause this overall percentage split to vary from period-to-period. As such, there may be fluctuations in the dollars and percentage of subscription revenue generated through our direct distribution channels from time-to-time. We believe that the growth of our subscription revenue, derived from both our indirect channel partners and direct sales force, are key attributes to our long-term growth strategy. We intend to continue to invest in both our channel relationships and direct sales force in the future, but we continue to expect more revenue to be generated through indirect distribution channels over the long term. The failure of our indirect distribution channels or our direct sales force to effectively sell our software applications could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.
We have a non-exclusive distribution agreement with Arrow pursuant to which Arrow's primary role is to enable a more efficient and effective distribution channel for our products and services by managing our reseller partners and leveraging their own industry experience. We generated 36% of our total revenues through Arrow for both the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. If Arrow were to discontinue or reduce the sales of our products or if our agreement with Arrow were terminated, and if we were unable to take back the management of our reseller channel or find another distributor to replace Arrow, there could be a material adverse effect on our future business.
Our customer support revenue includes support contracts tied to our software products. Customer support includes software updates on a when-and-if-available basis, telephone support, integrated web-based support, and other premium support offerings, for both subscription software and perpetual software license arrangements.
16

Table of Contents
We sell our customer support contracts as a percentage of net software. Customer support revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the customer support agreement.
Our other services revenue consists primarily of professional service offerings, including consultation, assessment and design, installation services, and customer education. Revenues from other services can vary period over period based on the timing services are delivered and are typically recognized as the services are performed.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates’ Impact on Results of Operations
Sales outside the United States were 46% of our total revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 45% of our total revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2022. The income statements of our non-U.S. operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates for each applicable month in a period. To the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions generally results in increased revenues, operating expenses and income from operations for our non-U.S. operations. Similarly, our revenues, operating expenses and net income will generally decrease for our non-U.S. operations if the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies.
Using the average foreign currency exchange rates from the three months ended September 30, 2022, our total revenues would have been lower by $2.6 million, our cost of revenues would have been lower by $0.1 million and our operating expenses would have been lower by $0.8 million from non-U.S. operations for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Using the average foreign currency exchange rates from the six months ended September 30, 2022, our total revenues would have been lower by $1.4 million, our cost of revenues would have been higher by $0.2 million and our operating expenses would have been higher by $0.1 million from non-U.S. operations for the six months ended September 30, 2023.
In addition, we are exposed to risks of foreign currency fluctuation primarily from cash balances, accounts receivables and intercompany accounts denominated in foreign currencies and are subject to the resulting transaction gains and losses, which are recorded as a component of general and administrative expenses. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $0.3 million and gains of approximately $0.2 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.
Critical Accounting Policies
In presenting our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, we are required to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported therein. Some of the estimates and assumptions we are required to make relate to matters that are inherently uncertain as they pertain to future events. We base these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable and appropriate. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be affected.
In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by U.S. GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application, while in other cases, significant judgment is required in selecting among available alternative accounting standards that allow different accounting treatment for similar transactions. We consider these policies requiring significant management judgment to be critical accounting policies. These critical accounting policies are:
•Revenue Recognition
•Accounting for Income Taxes
•Goodwill
There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies during the six months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
In recent fiscal years, our principal source of liquidity has been cash provided by operations. As of September 30, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents balance was $283.3 million, of which approximately $190.0 million was held outside of the United States by our foreign legal entities. These balances are dispersed across approximately 35 international locations around the world. We believe that such dispersion meets the current and anticipated future liquidity needs of our foreign legal entities. In the event we need to repatriate funds from outside of the United States, such repatriation would likely be subject to restrictions by local laws and/or tax consequences, including foreign withholding taxes.
On December 13, 2021, we entered into a five-year $100 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The Credit Facility is available for share repurchases, general corporate purposes, and letters of credit. The Credit Facility contains financial maintenance covenants, including a leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains certain customary events of default which would permit the lender to, among other things, declare all loans then outstanding to be immediately due and payable if such default is not cured within applicable grace periods. The Credit Facility also limits our ability to incur certain additional indebtedness, create or permit liens on assets, make acquisitions, make investments, loans or advances, sell or transfer assets, pay dividends or distributions, and engage in certain transactions with foreign affiliates. Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 1.25% subject to increases based on our actual leverage. The unused balance on the Credit Facility is also subject to a 0.25% annual interest charge subject to increases based on our actual leverage. As of September 30, 2023, there were no borrowings under the Credit Facility and we were in compliance with all covenants.
On April 20, 2023, the Board of Directors approved an increase of the existing share repurchase program so that $250.0 million was available. The Board's authorization has no expiration date. For the six months ended September 30, 2023, we have repurchased $82.4 million of our common stock. The remaining amount available under the current authorization as of September 30, 2023 was $173.6 million.
Our summarized cash flow information is as follows (in thousands):
  Six Months Ended September 30,

–Net cash provided by operating activities was impacted by net income adjusted for the impact of non-cash charges and a decrease in accounts receivable partially offset by a decrease in accrued liabilities.
–Net cash used in investing activities was related to $0.6 million for the purchase of equity securities and $1.4 million of capital expenditures.
–Net cash used in financing activities was the result of $82.4 million of repurchases of common shares, partially offset by $6.4 million of proceeds from employee purchases of common shares under the ESPP and the exercise of stock options.
Working capital decreased $4.6 million from $140.8 million as of March 31, 2023 to $136.2 million as of September 30, 2023. The net decrease in working capital was primarily driven by decreases in accounts receivable and accrued liabilities.
We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and our cash from operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital, income taxes, capital expenditures and potential stock repurchases for at least the next twelve months. We may seek additional funding through public or private financings or other arrangements during this period. Adequate funds may not be available when needed or may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities, dilution to existing stockholders will result. If we raise additional funds by obtaining loans from third parties, the terms of those financing arrangements may include negative covenants or other restrictions on our business that could impair our operational flexibility, and would also require us to fund additional interest expense. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, we may be unable to develop or enhance our products or services, take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2023, we did not have off-balance sheet financing arrangements, including any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
There were no recently issued accounting standards that had a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures, and no recently issued accounting standards that are expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures.

Foreign Currency Risk
Economic Exposure
As a global company, we face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our international sales are generally denominated in foreign currencies and these revenues could be materially affected by currency fluctuations. Approximately 46% of our revenues were from outside the United States for the six months ended September 30, 2023. Our primary exposures are to fluctuations in exchange rates for the U.S. dollar versus the Euro, and to a lesser extent, the Australian dollar, British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, Chinese yuan, Indian rupee, Korean won and Singapore dollar. Changes in currency exchange rates could adversely affect our reported revenues and require us to reduce our prices to remain competitive in foreign markets, which could also have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Historically, we have periodically reviewed and revised the pricing of our products available to our customers in foreign countries and we have not maintained excess cash balances in foreign accounts.
Transaction Exposure
Our exposure to foreign currency transaction gains and losses is primarily the result of certain net receivables due from our foreign subsidiaries and customers being denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the subsidiary. Our foreign subsidiaries conduct their businesses in local currency and we generally do not maintain excess U.S. dollar cash balances in foreign accounts.
Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. We recognized net foreign currency transaction losses of approximately $0.3 million and gains of approximately $0.2 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are subject to claims in legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business. We do not believe that we are currently party to any pending legal action that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business or operating results. Please refer to Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023 for additional information.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023, which are incorporated herein by reference, and could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, financial conditions or results of operations could be negatively affected. In that case, the trading price of our stock could decline, and our stockholders may lose part or all of their investment. There have been no material changes from the risk factors set forth in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023.

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of September 30, 2023. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2023.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Table of Contents
Inherent Limitations on Internal Controls
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

AMENDED AND RESTATED
CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
OF
COMMVAULT SYSTEMS, INC.

August 29, 2023

Commvault Systems, Inc. (the “Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended (the “DGCL”), does hereby certify as follows:

FIRST: That at a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, resolutions were duly adopted setting forth a proposed amendment of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, declaring such amendment to be advisable and calling a meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation for consideration thereof. The resolution setting forth the proposed amendment is as follows:

RESOLVED: that the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of this Corporation be amended by changing Article IX (a) so that, as amended, said Article shall be and read as follows:

“(a) No director or Officer (as defined below) shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or Officer, except for liability of: (i) a director or Officer for any breach of the director’s or Officer’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders; (ii) a director or Officer for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) a director under Section 174 of the DGCL; (iv) a director or Officer for any transaction from which the director or Officer derived an improper personal benefit; or (v) an Officer in any action by or in the right of the Corporation. Any amendment, repeal or elimination of this Article IX shall not affect its application with respect to an act or omission by a director or Officer occurring before such amendment, repeal or elimination. If the DGCL is amended hereafter to authorize the further elimination or limitation of liability of directors or Officers, then the liability of a director or Officer, as applicable, shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as so amended. All references in this Article IX to an “Officer” shall mean only a person who, at the time of an act or omission as to which liability is asserted, falls within the meaning of the term “officer,” as defined in Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL.”

SECOND: That thereafter, pursuant to resolution of its Board of Directors, a
meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation was duly called and held upon notice in accordance with DGCL at which meeting the necessary number of shares were voted in favor of the amendment.




THIRD: The amendment set forth herein was duly adopted in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 242 of the DGCL.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Certificate of Amendment to be duly executed on its behalf as of the date first indicated above.
