(the &#8220;Company&#8221;) was formed in November 2009 as a Delaware corporation. The Company is headquartered in Ventura, California and has offices in various cities in North America, Europe, Asia and Australia. The Company is a technology company that empowers buyers of advertising by providing a self-service cloud-based platform on which ad buyers can create, manage, and optimize more expressive data-driven digital advertising campaigns across ad formats, including display, video, audio, native and, social, on a multitude of devices, such as computers, mobile devices, and connected TV (CTV).</p>

Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.</p> <p style="margin-top:12pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-indent:4.54%;font-size:10pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates, primarily those related to: (1)&#160;revenue recognition criteria, including the determination of revenue reporting as net versus gross in the Company&#8217;s revenue arrangements, (2)&#160;allowances for doubtful accounts, (3)&#160;the useful lives of property and equipment and capitalized software development costs, (4)&#160;income taxes, (5)&#160;assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock-based compensation, (6)&#160;the recognition and disclosure of contingent liabilities and (7) <font style="color:#000000;">the assumptions used in valuing acquired assets and assumed liabilities in business combinations</font>. These estimates are based on historical data and experience, as well as, various other factors that management believes to be 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. Prior to the IPO in September 2016, the Company used estimates to determine the value of common and preferred stock which required the selection of appropriate valuation methodologies and models, and significant judgment in evaluating ranges of assumptions and financial inputs. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions or circumstances.</p>
