PEGASYSTEMS INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Pegasystems Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “the Company”) has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information required by the generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America (“U.S.”) for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
In the opinion of management, the Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as its audited financial statements, and these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented.
All intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation. The operating results for the interim periods presented do not necessarily indicate the expected results for fiscal year 2026.
NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (ASU “2024-03”). Among other items, the requirements include expanded disclosures around employee compensation and selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 will be effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2027. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements but expects the adoption to result in disclosure changes only.
Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”). ASU 2025-06 introduces a more principles-based framework to the capitalization of software intended for internal use focused on management’s authorization and commitment to fund a development project and the probability of whether the project will be completed and used for its intended function. ASU 2025-06 will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2028. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2025-06 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 8. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company derives substantially all of its revenue from the sale and support of one group of similar products and services – software that provides case management, business process management, and real-time decisioning solutions to improve customer engagement and operational excellence in the enterprise applications market. To assess performance, the Company’s CODM, the Chief Executive Officer, reviews financial information on a consolidated basis. Therefore, the Company determined it has one operating segment and one reportable segment. The accounting policies of the Company’s operating segment are the same as those described in "Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies" included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The CODM uses consolidated net income to set financial performance targets, assess performance, and make expense allocation decisions.

Credit facility
In November 2019, and as since amended, the Company entered into a five-year $100 million senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association.

NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis
The Company records its cash equivalents, marketable securities, and venture investments at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
As a basis for classifying the fair value measurements, a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which classifies the fair value measurements based on the inputs used in measuring fair value, was established as follows:
Level 1 - observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - significant other inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs with little or no market data, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions.
This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data when available and minimize unobservable inputs when determining fair value.
The Company’s venture investments are recorded at fair value based on multiple valuation methods, including observable public companies and transaction prices and unobservable inputs, including the volatility, rights, and obligations of the securities the Company holds.

NOTE 16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal proceedings
In addition to the matters below, the Company is or may become involved in a variety of claims, demands, suits, investigations, and proceedings that arise from time to time relating to matters incidental to the ordinary course of the Company’s business, including actions concerning contracts, intellectual property, employment, benefits, and securities matters. Regardless of the outcome, legal disputes can have a material effect on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.
In addition, as the Company is a party to ongoing litigation, it is at least reasonably possible that the Company’s estimates will change in the near term, and the effect may be material. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company recorded an estimated $9.75 million accrued loss related to the agreed in principle settlement of the In re Pegasystems Inc. Derivative Litigation matter, see additional discussion below.
Appian Corp. v. Pegasystems Inc. & Youyong Zou
The Company is a defendant in litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia titled Appian Corp. v. Pegasystems Inc. & Youyong Zou, No. 2020-07216 (Fairfax Cty. Ct.). On May 9, 2022, the jury rendered its verdict finding that the Company had misappropriated one or more of Appian’s trade secrets, that the Company had violated the Virginia Computer Crimes Act, and that the trade secret misappropriation was willful and malicious. The jury awarded damages of $2,036,860,045 for trade secret misappropriation and $1.00 for violating the Virginia Computer Crimes Act. On September 15, 2022, the circuit court of Fairfax County entered judgment of $2,060,479,287, consisting of the damages previously awarded by the jury plus attorneys’ fees and costs, and stating that the judgment is subject to post-judgment interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum, from the date of the jury verdict (May 9, 2022) as to the amount of the jury verdict and from September 15, 2022 as to the amount of the award of attorneys’ fees and costs.
On September 15, 2022, the Company filed a notice of appeal from the Virginia Uniform Trade Secrets Act judgment. On September 29, 2022, the circuit court of Fairfax County approved a $25,000,000 letter of credit obtained by the Company to secure the judgment and entered an order suspending the judgment during the pendency of the Company’s appeal. A panel of the Court of Appeals of Virginia heard oral arguments on November 15, 2023, and issued a written opinion on July 30, 2024. The Court of Appeals reversed the judgment and ordered a new trade secrets claim trial. Appian filed a petition for appeal with the Supreme Court of Virginia on August 29, 2024, and the Company filed a response to the petition on October 21, 2024. On March 7, 2025, the Supreme Court of Virginia granted Appian’s petition for appeal and Pega’s assignments of cross-error. The Supreme Court of Virginia heard appellate oral argument on October 28, 2025.
On January 8, 2026, the Supreme Court of Virginia issued a written opinion unanimously affirming the ruling of the Court of Appeals of Virginia. On January 13, 2026, the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia notified the parties that this case has been reassigned to Judge David A. Oblon for further proceedings. On January 29, 2026, the Supreme Court of Virginia remanded Appian’s trade secret case to the Court of Appeals with direction to remand to the Circuit Court of Fairfax County for further proceedings in accordance with its written opinion. On May 7, 2026 Judge Oblon held a first status conference for the remanded trial proceedings and set the retrial to commence on January 11, 2027.
On February 27, 2026, the Court of Appeals of Virginia issued a mandate stating that the judgment is affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded to the Circuit Court of Fairfax County for further proceedings consistent with the views expressed in the written opinion of the Court of Appeals of Virginia. On May 7, 2026, the Court released the Company from its obligation to maintain the $25,000,000 letter of credit securing the judgment and the letter of credit was released on June 29, 2026.
The Company continues to believe that it did not misappropriate any alleged trade secrets and that its sales of the Company’s products at issue were not caused by, or the result of, any alleged misappropriation of trade secrets. The Company is unable to reasonably estimate possible damages because of, among other things, uncertainty as to the outcome of a new trial resulting from the appellate proceedings.

Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell
Federal court cases
On December 4, 2024, the shareholders representing approximately 3% of the settlement class that opted out of the court approved settlement in the class action matter captioned City of Fort Lauderdale Police and Firefighters’ Retirement System, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated v. Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case 1:22-cv-00578-LMB-IDD) (the “Class Action”) filed two lawsuits against the Company, the Company’s chief executive officer, and the Company’s chief operating and financial officer in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The first is captioned Eminence Fund Long Master, Ltd., Eminence Fund Master, Ltd., Eminence Fund II Master, LP, Eminence Partners Long II, LP, Eminence Fund Leveraged Master, Ltd., Eminence Partners, L.P., and Eminence Partners II, L.P. v. Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case 1:24-cv-12999-WGY); the second is captioned PS Lit Recovery, LLC v. Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case 1:24-cv-11220-WGY). The complaints, which are substantially similar, generally allege, among other things, that the defendants violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and that the individual defendants violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, in each case by allegedly making materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as allegedly failing to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects, which caused the Company’s securities to trade at artificially inflated prices. The complaints also assert claims for common law fraud and negligent misrepresentation, and seek unspecified damages. The defendants moved to dismiss the complaints on March 13, 2025 and on May 21, 2025, the Court held a hearing on the motion to dismiss. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Court (i) granted the motion to dismiss as to the plaintiffs’ scheme liability claims; (ii) granted the motion to dismiss as to certain claims against Ken Stillwell; and (iii) took the motion to dismiss under advisement as to all other claims. On January 8, 2026, the Court issued a written order granting the motion to dismiss as to the Section 10(b) and common law fraud claims against Ken Stillwell and denying the motion to dismiss as to the remaining claims. The Court also entered a scheduling order setting trial for February 2027.
State court cases
On February 26, 2025, the same shareholders filed two lawsuits against the Company, the Company’s chief executive officer, and the Company’s chief operating and financial officer in Massachusetts Superior Court. The first is captioned Eminence Fund Long Master, Ltd., Eminence Fund Master, Ltd., Eminence Fund II Master, LP, Eminence Partners Long II, LP, Eminence Fund Leveraged Master, Ltd., Eminence Partners, L.P., and Eminence Partners II, L.P. v. Pegasystems Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case No. 2584CV00541-BLS1); the second is captioned PS Lit Recovery, LLC v. Pegasystems, Inc., Alan Trefler, and Kenneth Stillwell (Case No. 2584CV00539-BLS1). The complaints, which are substantially similar, allege the same state law claims raised in the two federal lawsuits brought by the same plaintiffs in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. On April 14, 2025, the court granted the parties’ joint stipulations to stay both cases pending the resolution of the parallel federal actions and ordered the plaintiffs to file periodic status reports regarding the federal cases showing cause why the state cases should remain open.
The Company believes it has strong defenses to the claims brought against the defendants and intends to defend against these claims vigorously. The Company is unable to reasonably estimate possible damages or a range of possible damages in these matters given the stage of the lawsuits.
In re Pegasystems Inc. Derivative Litigation
Federal court cases
On November 21, 2022, a lawsuit was filed against the members of the Company’s board of directors, the Company’s chief operating and financial officer and the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, captioned Mary Larkin, derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant Pegasystems Inc. v. Peter Gyenes, Richard Jones, Christopher Lafond, Dianne Ledingham, Sharon Rowlands, Alan Trefler, Larry Weber, and Kenneth Stillwell, defendants, and Pegasystems Inc., nominal defendant (Case 1:22-cv-11985). On April 28, 2023, a lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by Dag Sagfors, derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant Pegasystems Inc., asserting breach of fiduciary duty and related claims relating to the Virginia Appian litigation against the same defendants as the Larkin lawsuit. On May 17, 2023, the Larkin and Sagfors cases were consolidated (the “Consolidated Action”) and, after defendants moved to dismiss the complaint in the Consolidated Action on December 4, 2024, the plaintiffs moved to voluntarily dismiss the Consolidated Action, and the Court granted the motion to dismiss on December 18, 2024.

PEGASYSTEMS INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)



The Company separately received confidential demand letters raising substantially the same allegations set forth in the Consolidated Action. On April 12, 2023, the Company’s board of directors (other than Mr. Trefler, who recused himself), formed a committee consisting solely of independent directors, to review, analyze, and investigate the matters raised in the demands and to determine in good faith what actions (if any) were reasonably believed to be appropriate under similar circumstances and reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company in response to the demand letters (the “Demand Review Committee”). The Demand Review Committee, with the assistance of independent legal counsel, conducted an extensive investigation of the allegations raised in the demand letters and on October 7, 2024 issued a report concluding that there are no valid claims against the Company’s directors and officers with respect to the matters raised in the demands and that it would not be in the Company’s best interests to pursue litigation against them.
On February 7, 2025, the plaintiffs in the Consolidated Action filed a new complaint against the members of the Company’s board of directors, certain employees of the Company, and the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, captioned Mary Larkin and Dag Sagfors, derivatively on behalf of nominal defendant Pegasystems Inc. v. Alan Trefler, Peter Gyenes, Richard Jones, Christopher Lafond, Dianne Ledingham, Sharon Rowlands, Leon Trefler, Larry Weber, Kenneth Stillwell, Don Schuerman, Kerim Akgonul, and Benjamin Baril, (the “Defendants”), and Pegasystems Inc., nominal defendant (Case 1:25-cv-10303). The complaint asserts against Defendants claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and violations of the Exchange Act relating to (i) the litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, described above; (ii) alleged misconduct by Company employees alleged in that litigation; and the Class Action, described above. The Defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint on April 28, 2025. On June 6, 2025, the plaintiffs in the consolidated derivative matter currently pending in Massachusetts Superior Court, Case No. 2484CV01734 (discussed below), moved to intervene in this matter and to stay it pending the resolution of the state derivative matter. The Court held a hearing on defendants’ motions to dismiss and state court plaintiffs’ motion to intervene on July 21, 2025. Following argument, the Court took the motions under advisement.
On October 14, 2025, the parties jointly notified the Court that on October 2, 2025 the Massachusetts Superior Court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss the related state court derivative action (see below) and proposed that the Court refrain from issuing a decision on the motions to dismiss pending a joint submission by the parties of their respective positions on the impact of the state court dismissal on the federal court case within thirty (30) days. On December 17, 2025, the court entered an order administratively closing this action in light of the developments in the State court cases, described below.
On January 7, 2026, the Collective Plaintiffs agreed in principle to a proposed settlement of the litigation, and a final order approving the proposed settlement was entered by the Massachusetts Superior Court on June 30, 2026. See discussion below within the “State court cases” subsection. On July 2, 2026, in light of the settlement, the parties to the federal court Consolidated Action filed a stipulation and proposed order of dismissal with prejudice as to all claims. On July 16, 2026, the Court signed the order dismissing the Consolidated Action with prejudice.
State court cases
On June 28, 2024, a lawsuit was filed against members of the Company’s board of directors, certain employees of the Company and the Company in the Business Litigation Section of the Superior Court in Suffolk County, Massachusetts, captioned John Dwyer and Ray Gerber, Plaintiffs, v. Alan Trefler, Peter Gyenes, Richard Jones, Christopher Lafond, Dianne Ledingham, Sharon Rowlands, Larry Weber, Leon Trefler, Don Schuerman, Kerim Akgonul, and Benjamin Baril, (“Defendants”), and Pegasystems Inc., Nominal Defendant (Case 2484CV01734) (“Dwyer Action”). The complaint generally alleges the Defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with alleged misconduct by Company employees alleged in the litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, described above, and alleges damages from the approximately $2 billion verdict in the litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, described above, the settlement of the Class Action, and litigation costs from various proceedings.
On November 22, 2024, a lawsuit was filed against members of the Company’s board of directors, certain employees of the Company and the Company in the Business Litigation Section of the Superior Court in Suffolk County, Massachusetts, captioned Jayne Birch and Robert Garfield, Plaintiffs, v. Alan Trefler, Peter Gyenes, Richard Jones, Christopher Lafond, Dianne Ledingham, Sharon Rowlands, Larry Weber, Kerim Akgonul, Don Schuerman, Leon Trefler, Douglas Kim, John Petronio, Benjamin Baril, and Kenneth Stillwell, (“Defendants”), and Pegasystems Inc., Nominal Defendant (Case 2484CV03076-BLS-1) (“Birch Action”). The complaint generally asserts the same claims asserted in the Dwyer Action.
On February 12, 2025, after submission by the parties of a stipulation and proposed order, an order was entered consolidating the Dwyer and Birch Actions and approving the schedule for the filing of a consolidated complaint and a motion to dismiss. On March 14, 2025, the plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint in Case No. 2484CV01734. The consolidated complaint generally alleges the Defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with alleged misconduct by Company employees alleged in the litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, described above, and in connection with the investigation conducted and the report issued by the Demand Review Committee of the Company’s board regarding the same. The Defendants moved to dismiss the complaint and after briefing by the parties, the Court held a hearing on defendants’ motion on September 4, 2025. On October 2, 2025, the Court granted Defendants’ motion to dismiss. On January 13, 2026, the court entered final judgment in defendants’ favor.

PEGASYSTEMS INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)



On January 7, 2026, the parties to the federal and state court cases agreed in principle to a proposed settlement of the litigation. Under the terms of the proposed settlement, the plaintiffs in the federal and state court cases (“Collective Plaintiffs”) agreed to the dismissal of all claims upon the Company adopting certain governance reforms and payment of an estimated aggregate sum of $9.75 million, inclusive of a $7 million special dividend to shareholders (excluding defendants) and Collective Plaintiffs’ attorney fees.
On January 23, 2026, the parties jointly moved the court for relief from the final judgment in this action for the sole purpose of permitting the parties to seek Court approval of the proposed settlement. On February 10, 2026, the plaintiffs submitted the proposed settlement to the Court for preliminary approval. On March 18, 2026, the Court held a preliminary approval hearing and granted the parties relief from the final judgment. On April 16, 2026, the Court preliminarily approved the proposed settlement and it held a final settlement approval hearing on June 25, 2026. On June 30, 2026, the Court entered an order for final approval of the settlement, including a $7 million special dividend to shareholders (excluding defendants) and payment by the Company of $2.75 million in Collective Plaintiffs’ attorney fees. Also on July 2, 2026, the Court entered a final judgment and order of dismissal dismissing the consolidated complaint with prejudice.
Pegasystems v. Appian Defamation Litigation
On August 2, 2023, the Company filed a complaint against Appian in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts, captioned Pegasystems Inc. v. Appian Corporation, 1:23-cv-11776-LTS (D. Mass.). The complaint asserts claims for defamation, trade libel, and violations of the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1125(a) based on statements Appian made following the verdict in the litigation brought by Appian in the Circuit Court of Fairfax County, Virginia, described above. In response to a motion to dismiss filed by Appian on August 18, 2023, the Company amended the complaint to add additional factual allegations in support of the same claims. On September 22, 2023, Appian moved to dismiss the amended complaint, which the Court denied on January 5, 2024. On February 20, 2024, Appian answered the complaint, asserted counterclaims against the Company for defamation, trade libel, violations of the Lanham Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1125(a), and violations of Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 93A §§ 2 and 11, and sought a declaratory judgment that the Company was not entitled to the recovery sought in the amended complaint. On April 11, 2024, the Company moved for a more definite statement and to partially strike the counterclaims, which the Court denied on August 1, 2024. On August 15, 2024, the Company moved to dismiss the counterclaims, which the Court allowed in part and denied in part on October 8, 2024; specifically, the Court allowed the Company’s motion to dismiss the trade libel counterclaim with respect to Appian’s allegations regarding the Company’s Code of Conduct. On November 26, 2024, Appian moved for judgment on the pleadings. On March 11, 2025, the Court allowed the motion for judgment on the pleadings in part and entered judgment for Appian on the basis of a statement made by Appian’s chief executive officer, but otherwise denied the motion.
The parties exchanged opening expert reports in March 2026. The Company claims $41.9 million in damages from Appian’s conduct. Appian seeks $31.8 million in lost profits damages and further requests that the Company be required to disgorge $109.5 million in profits as unjust enrichment arising from business contracts Appian contends it competed with Pegasystems on from 2022-2025. Apart from Company revenues in which Appian contends it competed with Pegasystems for business, Appian further seeks that the Company be forced to disgorge the entirety of its profits ($2.33 billion) from 2022-2025. The Company vehemently disagrees with Appian’s entitlement to any recovery, and believes the disgorgement claim is consistent with Appian’s efforts to denigrate the Company that are the subject of the Company’s claims asserted in this litigation. The Company remains confident in the merits of its claims against Appian and the damages claimed, and disputes Appian’s counterclaims, including the amount of and legal basis for the damages sought, believes it has strong defenses to the counterclaims, and intends to vigorously defend against the counterclaims. Summary judgment briefing was completed on July 16, 2026 and oral argument on summary judgment motions is scheduled for July 24, 2026. Briefing on Daubert motions pertinent to summary judgment is expected to be completed on July 23, 2026, with any remaining Daubert motions due on September 18, 2026. A jury trial is currently scheduled for November 2026. The Company is unable to reasonably estimate likelihood of success for either party or a range of possible gain or loss given the uncertainty as to the likelihood, amount, and timing of any potential gain or loss related to its claims or Appian’s counterclaims.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) contains or incorporates forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including the sufficiency of our capital, our position and estimates relating to tax, and legal proceedings.
Words such as expects, anticipates, intends, plans, believes, will, could, should, estimates, may, targets, strategies, intends to, projects, positions, forecasts, guidance, likely, and usually or variations of such words and other similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. These statements represent our views only as of the date the statement was made and are based on current expectations and assumptions.
Forward-looking statements deal with future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict, including, but not limited to:
our future financial performance and business plans;
the adequacy of our liquidity and capital resources;
the successful execution of investments in artificial intelligence;
our ability to protect our intellectual property rights, costs associated with defending such rights, intellectual property rights claims, and other related claims by third parties against us, including related costs, damages, and other relief that may be granted against us;
our ongoing litigation with Appian Corp. and associated legal proceedings; and
management of our growth.
These risks and others that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements are described further in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and other filings we make with the SEC.
Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, and there are no assurances that the results included in such statements will be achieved. Although subsequent events may cause our view to change, except as required by applicable law, we do not undertake and expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as the result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report represent our views as of July 21, 2026.
NON-GAAP MEASURES
Our non-GAAP financial measures should only be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these measures help investors understand our core operating results and prospects, which is consistent with how management measures and forecasts our performance without the effect of often one-time charges and other items outside our normal operations. Management uses these measures to assess the performance of the company's operations and establish operational goals and incentives. They are not a substitute for financial measures prepared under U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP measures is located with each non-GAAP measure.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Performance metrics
We use performance metrics to analyze and assess our overall performance, make operating decisions, and forecast and plan for future periods, including:
20


Annual contract value (“ACV”)
ACV represents the annualized value of our active contracts as of the measurement date. The contract's total value is divided by its duration in years to calculate ACV. ACV is a performance measure that we believe provides useful information to our management and investors.

Unprecedented changes in the AI market caused clients to delay their purchasing decisions. As a result, our ACV growth rate significantly slowed during the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period last year. These factors may continue to adversely affect the ACV growth rate for the rest of the year.

As a result of the factors discussed under ACV above, our cash flow generation may continue to be adversely affected for the rest of the year.
(1) Our non-GAAP free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities less investment in property and equipment. Investment in property and equipment fluctuates in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the timing and size of investments in our facilities and equipment. We provide information on free cash flow to enable investors to assess our ability to generate cash without incurring additional external financings. This information is not a substitute for financial measures prepared under U.S. GAAP.
(2) The supplemental information below identifies certain items included in operating cash flow that may affect comparability between periods.
Legal fees: Legal and related fees arising from proceedings outside the ordinary course of business.
Restructuring: Restructuring fluctuates in amount and frequency and is significantly affected by the timing and size of our restructuring activities.
Interest on convertible senior notes: In February 2020, we issued convertible senior notes (the “Notes”), due March 1, 2025, in a private placement. The Notes accrued interest at an annual rate of 0.75%, paid semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1. The outstanding Notes were repaid in their entirety at maturity.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared following accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. and the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Preparing these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions, and expectations of what could occur in the future based on the available information.
For more information about our critical accounting policies, we encourage you to read the discussion in the following locations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025:
“Critical Accounting Estimates and Significant Judgments” in Item 7; and
“Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies” in Item 8.
No significant changes have been made to our critical accounting policies as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The increases in Pega Cloud revenue in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to expanded adoption of Pega Cloud by our clients.
The decreases in maintenance revenue in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to our clients’ shift to Pega Cloud-based offerings, which do not result in maintenance revenue.
The increase in subscription license revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to the timing of client contract renewals. The decrease in subscription license revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to several large multi-year contracts recognized in revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2025.
The decreases in consulting revenue in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to a decrease in consultant billable hours in our Americas region.

The decreases in Pega Cloud gross profit percent in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to increases in personnel-related costs associated with investments made to support the expansion of our cloud operations.
The decreases in maintenance gross profit percent in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to higher compensation and benefits from increased headcount.
The increases in consulting gross profit percent in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to decreases in compensation and benefits of $12.1 million and $18.5 million, respectively, which were attributable to our restructuring initiatives in 2025. As our technology strategy continues to evolve, we may periodically evaluate our organizational structure to align resources with business priorities.

The increases in selling and marketing in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits of $12.6 million and $23.2 million, respectively, attributable to higher headcount as we continue to expand our prospective and current client engagement.
The increase in research and development in the three months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in outside professional services of $2.1 million and an increase in cloud hosting expenses of $1.5 million. The increase in research and development in the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in compensation and benefits of $4.7 million attributable to increases in headcount and equity compensation and an increase in cloud hosting expenses of $2.8 million.
The increases in general and administrative in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to increases of $11.5 million and $25 million, respectively, in legal fees and related expenses arising from legal proceedings outside the ordinary course of business. We expect to continue to incur additional costs for these proceedings. For additional information, see "Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies" in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
The increases in restructuring in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to cash severance and related costs incurred in connection with workforce reductions intended to better align roles to an AI-first delivery model.

The changes in foreign currency transaction (loss) gain in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates associated with foreign currency-denominated receivables and intercompany balances held by our subsidiary in the United Kingdom.
The decreases in interest income in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were primarily due to lower investment balances.
The decrease in interest expense in the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to the repayment of the Notes at maturity on March 3, 2025.
The changes in (loss) on capped call transactions were due to the expiration of the capped call transactions in the three months ended March 31, 2025.
The decrease in other income (loss), net in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to the gain from the partial sale of a venture investment in 2025. For additional information, see "Note 11. Fair Value Measurements" in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Effective income tax rate21 %24 %
Our effective income tax rate decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the prior period, primarily due to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation recognized in the current period and the absence of a valuation allowance on substantially all of our U.S. and U.K. deferred tax assets.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) has introduced Pillar Two, a global minimum tax framework supported by more than 130 countries, with certain provisions effective for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2024.
On January 5, 2026, the OECD issued administrative guidance introducing a side‑by‑side system that would exempt U.S.‑parented multinational groups from certain Pillar Two rules beginning in fiscal years starting on or after January 1, 2026. We will continue to monitor developments in countries’ domestic laws as they relate to the OECD model rules and the Pillar Two global minimum tax. Based on information currently available, we do not expect Pillar Two to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We believe that our current cash, marketable securities, cash flow provided by operations, borrowing capacity, and ability to engage in capital market transactions will be sufficient to fund our operations, stock repurchases, and quarterly cash dividends for at least the next 12 months and to meet our known long-term cash requirements. Whether these resources are adequate to meet our liquidity needs beyond that period will depend on our future growth, operating results, and the investments needed to support our operations. We may utilize available funds or seek external financing if we require additional capital resources.
If it becomes necessary or desirable to repatriate foreign funds, we may have to pay federal, state, and local income taxes as well as foreign withholding taxes upon repatriation. However, estimating the taxes we would have to pay on the amounts we consider indefinitely reinvested is impracticable due to the complexity of income tax laws and regulations. We have provided a deferred tax liability associated with the tax cost of repatriating unremitted earnings which we do not consider indefinitely reinvested.
Operating activities
The change in cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to increase in client collections.
Investing activities
The change in cash provided by investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to scheduled maturities of our investments in financial instruments in anticipation of the repayment of the maturing Notes in 2025.
Financing activities
Debt financing
In November 2019, and as since amended, we entered into a five-year $100 million senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association. Effective as of February 4, 2025, the Credit Facility was amended to extend the expiration date to February 4, 2027.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had letters of credit of $1.7 million and $26.7 million, respectively, under the Credit Facility; however we had no cash borrowings. For additional information, see "Note 9. Debt" in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in financial market prices and rates.
Foreign currency exposure
Translation risk
Our international operations’ operating expenses are primarily denominated in foreign currencies. However, our international sales are also primarily denominated in foreign currencies, partially offsetting our foreign currency exposure.

We are primarily exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with the Australian dollar, Euro, and U.S. dollar-denominated cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, receivables, and intercompany balances held by our U.K. subsidiary, a British pound functional entity.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2026. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our management necessarily applied its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2026.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
