Unless the context requires otherwise, in this Semiannual Report on Form 1-SA/A, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Exodus” refer to Exodus Movement, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiary, Proper Trust AG, a Swiss
corporation.
Explanatory Note
As we previously reported on our Current Report on Form 1-U filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 7, 2022, the Company has undertaken a restatement of its unaudited interim financial statements
for the period ended June 30, 2021, included in its Semiannual Report on Form 1-SA filed with the SEC on August 18, 2021 (the “Original Filing”). The Company is filing this Form 1-SA/A (the “Amendment”) to amend and restate
certain items in the Original Filing, as further described below.
This Amendment is presented as of the filing date of the Original Filing and does not reflect events occurring after that date, nor does it modify or update disclosures in any way other than as required to reflect the
restatement, as described below. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with our filings with the SEC subsequent to the date on which we filed the Original Filing.
Background of Restatement
In connection with the audit of the Company’s 2021 audited financial statements, management and the board of directors of the Company evaluated a non-cash adjustment related to the conversion of
SAFEs to 2.9 million Class B shares in early 2021, and concluded that the Company’s previously issued unaudited interim financial statements for the three and six-month period ending June 30, 2021 (the “Prior Period”), included
in the Original Filing, should no longer be relied upon because of an incorrect application of certain accounting principles in such financial statements. As such, the Company is filing this Amendment to amend and restate its
unaudited interim financial statements for the Prior Period.
The restated unaudited interim financial statements will record a loss on extinguishment of SAFE notes of $61.0 million, which was omitted in the previously reported unaudited interim financial statements. Although this
restatement results in noncash, financial statement corrections and will have no impact on the Company’s reported operating revenues or reported operating costs and expenses, the Company determined that these changes have a
material impact on the as-filed unaudited interim financial statements for the Prior Period, and as a result, the restatement of its unaudited interim financial statements and this Amendment is required.
The Company has identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting specific to its accounting for this restatement. The Company currently has no derivative instruments and has no plans to issue
derivative instruments in the future. In the unexpected event that the Company enters into or issues derivative instruments, it will engage outside experts to consult on such complex, non-routine derivative transactions.
This Amendment sets forth the Original Filing in its entirety, as amended, to reflect the restatement and to reflect an adjustment made to reclassify the non-cash activities settled in cryptocurrency on the statement of cash
flow. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Original Filing have not been revised to reflect events that occurred or facts that became known to the Company after the filing of the Original Filing, and such
forward-looking statements should be read in their historical context.
The following items have been amended as a result of the restatement:
“Item 1. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,”
“Item 2. Other Information” and
“Item 3. Financial Statements.”
In accordance with applicable SEC rules, this Amendment includes an updated signature page.
Refer to Note 11, Restatement, of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included within “Item 3. Financial Statements” of this Amendment for additional information and for
a summary of the accounting impacts of the restatement of the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
|
You should read the following discussion and analysis of Exodus’ financial condition and results of operations together with the consolidated financial statements and
related notes that are included elsewhere in this quarterly report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current plans, expectations and beliefs that involve risks and uncertainties. Exodus’ actual results may differ
materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors,” “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements,” and in other parts of Exodus’ Offering
Circular dated April 9, 2021.
Overview of Our Business
Exodus’ mission is to help half of the world exit the traditional finance system by 2030. Exodus allows people to secure, manage, and use their digital assets without compromising privacy or security. On
December 9, 2015, we launched Exodus for our customers to hold and control their own assets. Every two weeks since then, we have released new updates and improved its user experience.
Digital assets should be easy to use and easy to understand. Our platform allows customers to store and access their assets in a secure environment that only they control. On desktop and mobile devices alike,
Exodus delivers a simple, elegant, and intuitive experience. By eliminating technical jargon and irrelevant complexities obscuring core features, Exodus puts users first.
We operate in the financial technology (FinTech) subsector of the greater blockchain and digital asset industry. Our customers range from people or entities familiar with digital assets to those new to
financial solutions powered by blockchain technology.
The Exodus platform supports over 140 crypto assets, as well as integrations with multiple crypto-to-crypto exchanges and third-party applications, such as Compound Finance. We are relentlessly focused on
delivering the best customer experience in the blockchain and crypto asset industry.
Our platform is intended to provide the trustworthiness of your bank’s online portal without service windows and clunky interfaces, and the speed of centralized crypto exchanges without the risk of
third-party custody – we aim to provide our customers with the best of both worlds in Exodus.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
Exodus has entered into agreements with various third-party API providers whereby the provider is allowed to integrate their services into the Exodus Platform for use by users of the Exodus
Platform. These integrations are known as APIs, and we earn revenue based on the API fees detailed in the associated API agreements. Most, but not all, of our revenue is earned on a transactional basis whereby users of the Exodus Platform
access the services of the API providers through the API. Certain interactions generate API fees, and we track fees earned on a daily basis. Examples of services provided by API providers include cryptocurrency-to-cryptocurrency exchanges,
fiat-to-cryptocurrency conversions, and cryptocurrency staking.
For transaction-based API fees, the transaction price is allocated per qualified interaction between the provider and the user and is paid by the provider. As each interaction occurs, we
recognize revenue. With the majority of our revenue being transaction-based, our revenue can vary significantly based on the type and number of interactions that occur each day. We believe that there will be additional demand for the API
services in the future as a greater number of people begin to use cryptocurrencies. We anticipate that proceeds from the API fees, if and when recognized as revenue under our current accounting policy (or if and when recognized as revenue
under an appropriate future accounting policy) will continue to generate the majority of our revenue for the foreseeable future.
For non-transaction-based API fees, we recognize revenues based on when performance obligations in the underlying contracts have been identified, priced, allocated, and satisfied. No
non-transaction-based fees were recognized until July 2020.
Cost of Revenues
Exodus’ costs of revenues are classified as software development, customer support, and security and wallet operations.
Software Development
Software development expenses represent costs incurred by Exodus for the development of the Exodus Platform, individual API integrations, as well as our application ecosystem, and include:
related salaries and costs, fees paid to consultants and outside service providers. Our application ecosystem is still under development, and there are significant hurdles to overcome before critical components of the ecosystem become
operational. As a result, we expect our software development expenses to increase over the next several years as we accelerate improvements to the user experience and functionality of the wallet, integrate new APIs services, and develop the
Exodus ecosystem.
Customer Support
Customer support includes related salaries and costs, and fees paid to consultants and outside service providers. Exodus views customer support as an integral part of its product offerings
and made significant investments in this area in 2021 and 2020. Further investments in customer support are expected as the development of the Exodus ecosystem continues.
Security and Wallet Operations
Security and wallet operations expenses consist of development operations and security related activities. As the Exodus application ecosystem is still under development, Exodus expects
security and wallet operations expenses to increase over the next several years as we accelerate improvements to the user experience and functionality of the wallet. We continually explore and evaluate ways to make the Exodus Platform and
ecosystem more secure.
Operating Expenses
Exodus’ operating expenses are classified as general and administrative, and advertising and marketing, depreciation and amortization, and impairment of digital assets.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist of administrative, compliance, legal, investor relations, and financial operations and foreign currency gain or loss. They include related
department salaries, office expenses, meals and entertainment costs, software/applications for operational use, and other general and administrative expenses, including but not limited to technology subscriptions, travel, utilities, and
vehicle expenses. These expenses account for a significant portion of our operating expenses. We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future to support our continued growth, regulatory compliance, and
the costs associated with increased reporting requirements.
Advertising and Marketing
Advertising and marketing expenses include marketing and business development related activities consisting primarily of advertising, corporate marketing, public relations, promotional
items, events and conferences and fees paid for software applications used for advertising and marketing as well as related department salaries. We have traditionally focused on low cost marketing channels and word-of-mouth advertising.
However, more sophisticated marketing strategies are being explored to increase our outreach efforts; as such corresponding investments in advertising and marketing are expected to increase significantly.

Software development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 were $2.0 million compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $0.8 million or
74%. This growth was primarily due to $0.8 million of fiat onboarding expenses.

offset by a decrease of $0.3 million of stock-based compensation and $0.5 million related to increased software capitalization due to change in development mix away from internal use projects.

We will webcast via our investor relations website our earnings calls and certain events we participate in or host with members of the investment community. Our investor relations website
also provides notifications of news or announcements regarding our financial performance and other items of interest to our investors, including SEC filings, investor events, quarterly financials, press and earnings releases, and blogs. We
also share news and product updates on our YouTube channel, which may be of interest or material to our investors. The content of our websites are not incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report or in any report or document we file
with the SEC, and any references to our websites are intended to be inactive textual references only.
Controls and Procedures
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We rely extensively on information systems to manage our business and summarize and report operating results. In 2021, we will begin an implementation of a new Enterprise Resource Planning system (“ERP”), which
will replace much of our existing core financial systems. The ERP system is designed to accurately maintain our financial records, enhance the flow of financial information, improve data management and provide timely information to our
management team. The implementation is expected to occur in phases over the next year. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2021 that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, as the phased implementation of the new ERP system continues, we will change our processes and procedures, which in turn, could
result in changes to our internal control over financial reporting. As such changes occur, we will evaluate quarterly whether such changes materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
In connection with the audit of the Company’s 2021 audited financial statements, management and the board of directors of the Company evaluated a non-cash adjustment related to the conversion of SAFEs to 2.9
million Class B shares in early 2021, and concluded that the Company’s previously issued unaudited interim financial statements for the Prior Period, included in the Original Filing, should no longer be relied upon because of an incorrect
application of certain accounting principles in such financial statements. As such, the Company is filing this Amendment to amend and restate its unaudited interim financial statements for the Prior Period.
The restated unaudited interim financial statements will record a loss on extinguishment of SAFE notes of $61.0 million, which was omitted in the previously reported unaudited interim financial statements. Although this restatement
results in noncash, financial statement corrections and will have no impact on the Company’s reported operating revenues or reported operating costs and expenses, the Company determined that these changes have a material impact on the
as-filed unaudited interim financial statements for the Prior Period, and as a result, the restatement of its unaudited interim financial statements and this Amendment is required. The Company has identified a material weakness in its
internal control over financial reporting specific to its accounting for previously issued derivative instruments. The Company currently has no derivative instruments and has no plans to issue derivative instruments in the future. In
the unexpected event that the Company enters into or issues derivative instruments, it will engage outside experts to consult on such complex, non-routine derivative transactions.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of
achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits
of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Legal Proceedings
For a description of our material pending legal proceedings, see Note 10 “Legal Proceedings” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included within the Financial Statements section of this Quarterly
Report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Risk Factors
Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described in, “Risk Factors” in our Offering Circular as filed on April 9, 2021, which could adversely affect
our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and the trading price of our stock. There have been no material changes to our risk factors since our Offering Circular was filed on April 9, 2021

Exodus Movement, Inc. and Subsidiary
As of June 30, 2021 (unaudited) and December 31, 2020
and for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (unaudited)
(In Thousands)
1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
Exodus Movement, Inc. and Subsidiary (“Exodus” or “the Company” or “we”) is a technology company incorporated in Delaware in July 2016 that has developed the Exodus
Platform, which is an unhosted and non-custodial cryptocurrency software wallet for multiple types of cryptocurrency. We have created a non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet (meaning we never have any access to wallet holders’ crypto assets)
and partnered with third parties to provide various services that utilize our wallet through our crypto app store. Exodus earns revenue from providers of these services, which include crypto to crypto exchanges, and the ability to earn
rewards on crypto assets, with more to come in the future. We operate in the blockchain and crypto asset industry and our customers range from people completely unfamiliar to quite familiar with this technology. The Exodus Platform can
currently be downloaded from the exodus.io website, the iOS app store, and the Google Play store.
Basis of Presentation and Principles for Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. Dollars in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order to make the consolidated financial statements not misleading have been included.
The Company determines the consolidation for affiliated entities using Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). ASC 810 requires
consolidation if the reporting entity has a controlling financial interest in another entity, through voting interests or other means. We consolidate a variable interest entity (“VIE”) if it has the power to direct the activities that most
significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and if the reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of the affiliated entity. We have no VIEs for any of the periods presented. Prior to 2020, we had no subsidiaries or controlling
interests. In March 2020, we incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Proper Trust AG (“Proper Trust”), based in Zug, Switzerland.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported revenue generated and expenses incurred during the reporting periods. The most significant estimates are loss on
extinguishment of SAFE notes, fair value of digital currency, and stock-based compensation. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results
of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions,
including uncertainty in the current economic environment due to COVID-19. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more
significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates.
Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. An adjustment has been
made to the consolidated balance sheets as of the year ended December 31, 2020, to identify the U.S. Dollar Coin, a digital stablecoin (USDC), separate from cash and cash equivalents. This change in classification impacts operating
activities and cash balances on the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Foreign Currency Translation
The assets and liabilities of the Company’s subsidiary are translated into U.S Dollars at exchange rates in effect at the consolidated balance sheet date. Income and
expense items are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The effects of these translation adjustments are presented in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and in the consolidated statements of
operations and comprehensive income (loss).
Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income
Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income includes any gain or loss on foreign currency translation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of cash, money market funds and short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less in
which the Company is exposed to market and credit risk. The Company maintains its cash in deposit accounts which at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts and does not believe
it is exposed to any significant credit risk from cash. In addition, the Company holds cash at licensed crypto currency exchanges. The balances of cash at licensed crypto currency exchanges as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was less
than 10% of cash and cash equivalents.
U.S. Dollar Coin
USDC is a stablecoin digital asset that is backed by U.S. dollars or other liquid assets and accounted for as a financial instrument. USDC can be redeemed for one U.S. Dollar on demand from the issuer.
The Company held $54.9 million and $1.2 million of USDC as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The Company’s USDC holdings increased significantly in 2021 as a result of the Regulation A Offering which was conducted
entirely through digital assets and USDC. No fiat currency was accepted in the Regulation A Offering; therefore, the impact to the Company is recorded on the supplemental disclosure of cash flow information of non-cash investing and
financing activities.
Accounts Receivable
We record accounts receivable at the invoiced amount. We do not maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reserve for potentially uncollectible receivables as we
have no history of past due payments or disputes with our current customers.
The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company has two types of financial statement instruments subject to credit risk. The Company maintains bank accounts in which the balances sometimes exceed the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limit of $250,000. The Company’s receivables also subject the Company to credit risk.
Adoption of Accounting Standards
In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt—debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and
Hedging—Contracts in Entity’ Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’ Own Equity (ASU 2020-06), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation
models required under current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation
in certain areas. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021. Adoption of the ASU did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently
issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU will
require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets, including account receivables, held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The guidance
is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2020. The adoption of this update did not have a material
impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; major renewals and betterments are
capitalized. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which generally range from 3-5 years for equipment and furniture and 8 years for vehicles.
Intangible Assets
Digital Assets
Digital assets are recorded at cost less impairment and are classified as indefinite-lived intangible assets. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not
amortized but assessed for impairment daily, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired. Impairment exists when the carrying amount
exceeds its fair value. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized, the loss establishes the new cost basis of the asset. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted.
Software Development Costs
The Company applies ASC 985-20, Software—Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed, in analyzing our software
development costs. ASC 985-20 requires the capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility for a software product in development. Software development costs associated with
establishing technological feasibility are expensed as incurred. Technological feasibility is established upon the completion of a working model. Based on our software development process, the working model is almost immediately placed in
service. As such, we have not capitalized any costs under ASC 985-20.
The Company applies ASC 350-40, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal Use Software, in review of certain system projects.
These system projects generally relate to software not hosted on our users’ systems, where the user has no access to source code, and it is infeasible for the user to operate the software themselves. In these reviews, all costs incurred
during the preliminary project stages are expensed as incurred. Once the projects have been committed to and it is probable that the projects will meet functional requirements, costs are capitalized. These capitalized software costs are
amortized on a project-by-project basis over the expected economic life of the underlying product on a straight-line basis, which is typically three years. Amortization commences when the software is available for its intended use.
The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with ASC 350-50, Website Development Costs. We capitalize
internally developed website costs when the website under development has reached technological feasibility. We amortize these costs over an estimated life of three years.
Indefinite-Lived Asset
The Company applies ASC 350-30, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill in analyzing our
indefinite-lived asset. ASC 350-30 requires that the cost included in the purchase of indefinite-lived asset, such as our domain name, should be recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. The domain name does not have a definite life,
therefore no amortization will be recognized on this asset. The Company will perform an annual impairment review of fair market value of this indefinite-lived asset.
Non-Cash Activities Settled In Cryptocurrency
For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company had the following non-cash activities settled in cryptocurrency on the statement of cash flows:

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The following fair value hierarchy is used in selecting inputs, with the highest priority given to Level 1, as these are the most transparent or reliable:
• Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
• Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and modelderived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.
• Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are not observable.
Prices may fall within Level 1, 2 or 3 depending upon the methodology and inputs used to estimate fair value for each specific security. In general, securities are priced using third-party pricing services. Securities not priced by pricing services are submitted to independent brokers for valuation and, if those are not available, internally developed pricing models are used to value assets using a methodology and inputs that market participants presumably would use to value the assets. Prices obtained from third-party pricing services or brokers are not adjusted.
Control procedures are performed over information obtained from pricing services and brokers to ensure prices received represent a reasonable estimate of fair value and to confirm representations regarding whether inputs are observable or unobservable. Procedures may include: (i) the review of pricing service methodologies or broker pricing qualifications, (ii) back-testing, where past fair value estimates are compared to actual transactions executed in the market on similar dates, (iii) exception reporting, where period-over-period changes in price are reviewed and challenged with the pricing service or broker based on exception criteria and (iv) detailed analysis, where an independent analysis of the inputs and assumptions used to price individual securities is performed.
Our financial assets and liabilities are summarized below as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, with fair values shown according to the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Revenue Recognition
The Company applies the provisions of ASC 606 to determine the measurement of revenue and the timing of when it is recognized. Under ASC 606, revenue is measured as the
amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to, in exchange for transferring products or providing services to our customers and is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of contracts with our customers are satisfied.
ASC 606 prescribes a five-step model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers: (1) identify contract(s) with the customer; (2) identify the separate performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price;
(4) allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied.
The Company recognizes various charges to application programming interface (“API”) providers which are based on user interactions conducted through APIs as revenue.
Currently, the Company has API agreements with providers of cryptocurrency-to-cryptocurrency exchanges, fiat-to-cryptocurrency conversions, and cryptocurrency staking. The Company allows the providers to provide software services, which
permit a user of our unhosted and non-custodial cryptocurrency software wallet to access the services of the provider through the APIs. Under the terms and conditions of the agreements, the Company and the providers have integrated the APIs
into the Exodus Platform. In consideration for the integration by the Company of the APIs into the Exodus Platform software, API providers pay us an API fee for certain user interactions with API. These interactions are typically transactions
of services between provider and a user, effected through the API.
Operating revenues from major API providers exceeding 10% of the total operating revenues for the three and six months ended June 20, 2021 and 2020 were as follows (in

Includes $0.1 million of related party revenues
|
For transaction-based API fees, the transaction price is allocated per qualified interaction between the provider and the user. As each interaction occurs, we recognize
revenue. With the majority of our revenue being transaction based, our revenue can vary significantly based on the type and number of interactions that occur each day.
For non-transaction-based API fees, the Company recognizes revenues based on performance obligations in the underlying contracts having been identified, priced,
allocated, and satisfied.
The Company concluded that the contracts do not contain any significant financing components, as either much of the transaction consideration is variable, and is not
substantially within the control of the Company or its customers, or the period between receipt of the funds and the satisfaction of performance obligations is largely within one year.
Cost of Revenues
Software Development
Software development costs consist primarily of related salaries and related costs, fees paid to consultants and outside service providers. Most costs are expensed as
incurred except for costs associated with Internal Use Software.
Customer Support
Customer support includes related salaries and costs, fees paid to consultants and outside service providers, and software or applications used for customer support.
Customer support expenses are expensed as incurred.
Security and Wallet Operations
Security and wallet operations expenses consist of development operations and security related activities. Costs are primarily related salaries and related costs, fees
paid to consultants and outside service providers, and costs related to web hosting and maintaining servers. Most costs are expensed as incurred except for costs associated with internal use software
Operating Expenses
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist of administrative, compliance, legal, investor relations, and financial operations. They include office expenses, meals and
entertainment costs, software/applications for operational use, and other general and administrative expenses, including but not limited to technology subscriptions, travel, utilities, and vehicle expenses.
Advertising and Marketing
Sales and marketing costs are expenses associated with advertising, corporate marketing, public relations, promotional items, events and conferences, related salaries,
and fees paid for software or applications used for advertising and marketing. Advertising and marketing expenses are expensed as incurred.
Stock-based Compensation
Stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the option award and is recognized as expense ratably over the vesting period of
the award. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent the Company’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. As a result, if factors
change and the Company uses different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. The Company elected to account for its graded vesting awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite
service period for the entire award. Stock-based compensation is recorded in cost of revenues and selling, general, and administrative to align this benefit with employee salary expense on the consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive income.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at currently enacted tax rates.
These temporary differences primarily relate to net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, if
necessary, to reduce a deferred tax asset to the amount that will more likely than not be realized.
The Company recognizes tax liabilities from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will not be sustained upon examination by
the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the tax position. There are no uncertain tax positions that have been recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company is required to file tax returns in
the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states and local municipalities. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits in operating expenses. The Company paid no penalties during the six
months ended June 30, 2021 or 2020.
Earnings per Share
The Company uses the if converted method to calculate earnings per share. Basic net income per share was computed by allocating undistributed earnings to common shares
and using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net income per share was computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and, if dilutive, the potential common shares outstanding during the period.
Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options. The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options is reflected in diluted earnings per share. All outstanding dilutive securities
have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as they are anti-dilutive.
The following table set forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share of common stock (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Risks Associated with Digital Assets
Private Key Security
We currently hold significant amounts of bitcoin, USDC, and other digital assets, and security breaches, computer malware, and other computer hacking attacks could result
in a loss of these assets with no adequate source of recovery. Cryptocurrency holdings are anonymous and have an association with a set of private keys. Control of these private keys are necessary to demonstrate ownership and control,
transfer or sell our cryptocurrency holdings.
Although we take significant steps to secure these private keys, to help better ensure they are not destroyed or stolen, we—like any other holder of cryptocurrency—cannot
guarantee that the loss, destruction, or theft of its private keys is not possible. In the event that we lose one or more of our private keys, one or more of those private keys are somehow destroyed, or one or more if our private keys are
somehow stolen or disclosed to another party, we could lose access to our cryptocurrency holdings, or our cryptocurrency holdings could be stolen.
The majority of our cryptocurrency holdings are held in non-custodial wallets with a multi-signature private key set up. Any transfer of cryptocurrency requires the use
of multiple private keys that are separately controlled and secured by executive officers and directors of Exodus. A single executive officer or director is unable, on his or her own, to transfer any of our cryptocurrency. We have policies
and procedures in place in case of death or disability on the part of these executive officers and directors that vest control of the private keys in our board of directors including the safekeeping of backup private keys.
From time to time, we may use custodial services for exchanging or investing certain assets. Procedures for these services are similar to that of traditional banks. When
available, we utilize enhanced security measures such as Whitelisting approved receiving addresses.
Market Volatility
The prices of digital assets are extremely volatile. Fluctuations in the price of digital assets could materially and adversely affect our results of operations. The
prices of cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin, and other digital assets have historically been subject to dramatic fluctuations, and in the event of a decline in value of bitcoin, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows
could be materially and adversely affected.
Digital Assets are Currently Unregulated
As of the date of these consolidated financial statements, digital assets are not subject to specific regulation. Accordingly, there are uncertainties related to the
regulatory regimes governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, digital assets, and cryptocurrency exchanges, and new international, federal, state and local regulations or policies may materially adversely affect Exodus and the value
of the Exodus Platform.
Cryptocurrency networks and blockchain technologies also face an uncertain regulatory landscape in many foreign jurisdictions, including (among others) the European
Union, China, and Russia. Various foreign jurisdictions may, in the future, adopt laws, regulations or directives that affect Exodus. These laws, regulations or directives may conflict with those of the United States or may directly and
negatively impact results of operations. The effect of any future regulatory change is impossible to predict, but any change could be substantial and materially adverse to Exodus, our results of operations, and adoption and value of the
Exodus Platform.
Value of Crypto Assets
In December 2019, Association of International Certified Public Accountants (‘‘AICPA’’) produced a nonauthoritative practice aid titled, ‘‘Accounting for and auditing of digital assets.’’ The practice aid discusses initial classification, ongoing valuation and measurement, as well as sales of digital assets.
There is also no currently authoritative literature under GAAP that specifically addresses the accounting for crypto asset holdings, including digital assets like
bitcoin. We have determined that crypto assets should be classified as intangible assets with indefinite useful lives; as such, they are recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. We do not amortize intangible assets
with indefinite useful lives. We review indefinite-lived intangible assets at least monthly for possible impairment. We recognize impairment on these assets caused by decreases in market value based upon quoted prices for identical
instruments in active markets. In addition, indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for possible impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the
indefinite-lived intangible assets below their carrying values.

In March 2021 and June 2021, the Company entered into note receivable agreements and has earned interest of less than $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The note
receivable is due on demand, earns 5.5% and 11% interest, and the original note was funded in cryptocurrency.
4. Intangible Assets
Indefinite-Lived Asset
The Company purchased the exodus.com domain name in the first quarter of 2021 for $1.9 million. The Company considers the domain name to be an indefinite-lived asset so
no amortization will be recognized. An annual review will be performed to ensure no impairment is needed.
Digital Assets
The Company uses bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in the ordinary course of its business and includes them as digital assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The
Company considers these digital assets to be intangible assets and record them at cost less impairment. Digital assets not directly exchanged from the Company’s U.S. Dollar holdings are valued based on publicly available pricing data obtained
from a well-known pricing service. The Company tracks its digital assets on a first in, first out basis and evaluates daily holdings for impairment. Realized gains or losses on cryptocurrency transactions are calculated as the difference
between the value received versus the lower of the initial cost or the impaired value of the units being disposed.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, impairment charges of $11.6 million and $1.9 million were recorded in our consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive income, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, impairment charges of $13.2 million and $1.9 million were recorded in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, respectively.
During the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, realized gains of $3.6 million and $2.6 million were recorded in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2021
and 2020, realized gains of $7.4 million and $2.6 million were recorded in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, respectively.
