Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the SEC and, in the opinion of management, reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results for the unaudited interim periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for the full fiscal year.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its directly and indirectly wholly-owned or controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated through
consolidation. The Company consolidated the financial results of CWAN Holdings as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc. owns the majority economic interest and has the power to control all the business and affairs of CWAN Holdings.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the related disclosures at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Items subject to estimates and assumptions include the useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, the average period of benefit associated with deferred contract costs, sales reserves, the incremental borrowing rate applied in lease accounting, accruals for sales tax liabilities, the fair value of converted equity awards, the fair value and probability of achieving performance conditions of equity awards, and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for business combinations, among others. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the result of which forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities, and measurement of revenues and expenses. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates, judgments, or assumptions and actual results, the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements will be affected.
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company's significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Annual Report. There have been no significant changes to these policies that have had a material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.
