1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Preparation—The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Fortinet, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, as well as the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 26, 2024. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any future periods. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fortinet, Inc. and its subsidiaries. We consolidate all legal entities in which we have an absolute controlling financial interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC.

Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective

Segment Reporting

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. The amendments are effective for our annual reporting for fiscal year 2024, and for our interim period reporting starting in fiscal year 2025 retrospectively, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on our disclosures.

Income Taxes

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for our annual period beginning fiscal year 2025, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on our disclosures.

2. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following table presents our revenue disaggregated by major product and service lines (in millions):

			Three Months Ended												Six Months Ended
			June 30, 2024						June 30, 2023						June 30, 2024						June 30, 2023
Product			$	451.9					$	472.6					$	860.8					$	973.3
Service:
Security subscription			558.7						457.3						1,095.6						879.0
Technical support and other			423.7						362.9						831.2						702.8
Total service revenue			982.4						820.2						1,926.8						1,581.8
Total revenue			$	1,434.3					$	1,292.8					$	2,787.6					$	2,555.1

Deferred Revenue

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized $764.3 million and $1.62 billion in revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2023, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $609.8 million and $1.29 billion in revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2022, respectively.

Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations

As of June 30, 2024, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $5.92 billion, which was substantially comprised of deferred security subscription and technical support services revenue that will be recognized in future periods. We expect to recognize approximately $2.99 billion as revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of an allowance for expected credit losses. We measure expected credit losses of accounts receivable on a collective (pooled) basis, aggregating accounts receivable that are either current or no more than 60 days past due, and aggregating accounts receivable that are more than 60 days past due. We apply a credit-loss percentage to each of the pools that is based on our historical credit losses. We review whether each of our significant accounts receivable that is more than 60 days past due continues to exhibit similar risk characteristics with the other accounts receivable in the pool. If we determine that it does not, we evaluate it for expected credit losses on an individual basis. Expected credit losses are recorded as general and administrative expenses on our condensed consolidated statements of income.

The allowance for credit losses was $5.7 million and $8.2 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Provisions, write-offs and recoveries were not material during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Deferred Contract Costs

Amortization of deferred contract costs during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $72.7 million and $65.4 million, respectively. Amortization of deferred contract costs during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $144.7 million and $127.9 million, respectively.

The contractual maturities of our investments were (in millions):

Due within one year			$	1,114.9					$	1,021.5
Due within one to three years			—						—
Total			$	1,114.9					$	1,021.5

Available-for-sale investments are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses and the related tax impact included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity (deficit) and in comprehensive income. We do not intend to sell any of the securities in an unrealized loss position and it is not more likely than not that we would be required to sell these securities before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.

Realized gains and losses on available-for-sale investments were insignificant in the periods presented.

Marketable Equity Securities

Our marketable equity securities were $21.2 million and $21.0 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The changes in fair value of our marketable equity securities are recorded in other expense—net on the condensed consolidated statements of income. We recognized a $0.2 million loss and $0.1 million gain during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. We recognized a $4.0 million loss and $3.4 million loss during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Accounting—We apply the following fair value hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels:

Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2—Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs based on our own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. The inputs require significant management judgment or estimation.

We measure the fair value of money market funds, certain U.S. government and agency securities and marketable equity securities using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The fair value of all other financial instruments was based on quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, or model-driven valuations using significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

We classify investments within Level 1 if quoted prices are available in active markets for identical securities.

We classify items within Level 2 if the investments are valued using model-driven valuations using observable inputs such as quoted market prices, benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Investments are held by custodians who obtain investment prices from a third-party pricing provider that incorporates standard inputs in various asset price models.

6. INVESTMENT IN PRIVATELY HELD COMPANY

Linksys Holdings, Inc.

During 2021, we invested $160.0 million in cash for shares of the Series A Preferred Stock of privately held Linksys Holdings, Inc. (“Linksys”), for a 50.8% ownership interest in outstanding equity of Linksys. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our ownership interest remained the same. Linksys provides router connectivity solutions to the consumer and small business markets.

We have concluded that our investment in Linksys is an in-substance common stock investment and that we do not hold an absolute controlling financial interest in Linksys, but that we have the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of Linksys. Therefore, we determined to account for this investment using the equity method of accounting. We record our share of Linksys’ financial results on a three-month lag basis, with the exception of material transactions or events that occur during the intervening period that materially affect the financial position or results of operations. We determined that there was a basis difference between the cost of our investment in Linksys and the amount of underlying equity in net assets of Linksys.

Due to the presence of impairment indicators, such as a series of operating losses, current expected performance relative to expected performance as of the most recent previous quarter, organizational and go to market changes, performance relative to peers and the results of a discounted cash flows analysis, we evaluated our equity method investment for an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) during the second quarter of 2024. We considered various factors in determining whether an OTTI has occurred, including Linksys’ financial results, operating history, our ability and intent to hold the investment until its fair value recovers, the discounted cash flows analysis, Linksys’ ability to achieve milestones and any notable operational and strategic changes. After this evaluation, we noted that certain factors were present that indicate that the equity method investment’s decline in value is other-than-temporary, primarily driven by Linksys’ continuous losses, decrease in revenue and operating results, current forecasted results for the foreseeable future as compared to the expected performance as of the most recent previous quarter, and the results of a discounted cash flows analysis. To determine the fair value of our investment in Linksys, we utilized a market approach referencing revenue multiples from publicly traded peer companies and concluded that

the estimated fair value of the investment was lower than its carrying value. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded a non-cash charge of $8.0 million related to impairment recognized on our equity method investment in Linksys.

Our loss from our Linksys investment totaled $11.8 million and $18.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, which comprised of our proportionate share of Linksys' financial results as well as the amortization of the basis differences of $3.8 million and $10.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and an OTTI charge of $8.0 million. Our share of loss of Linksys’ financial results, as well as our share of the amortization of the basis differences, totaled $5.3 million and $27.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. These losses and the OTTI charge were recorded in loss from equity method investments on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The carrying amount of our Linksys investment was $24.0 million and $42.2 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and the investment was included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

8. NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effects of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock options and performance stock units (“PSUs”). Dilutive shares of common stock are determined by applying the treasury stock method.

9. DEBT

2026 and 2031 Senior Notes

On March 5, 2021, we issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes (collectively, the “Senior Notes”), consisting of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.0% notes due March 15, 2026 (the “2026 Senior Notes”) and $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.2% notes due March 15, 2031 (the “2031 Senior Notes”), in an underwritten registered public offering. The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally with each other in right of payment and with our other outstanding obligations. We may redeem the Senior Notes at any time in whole or in part for cash, at specified redemption prices that include accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and a make-whole premium. However, no make-whole premium will be paid for redemptions of the 2026 Senior Notes on or after February 15, 2026, or the 2031 Senior Notes on or after December 15, 2030. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2021. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Senior Notes were recorded as long-term debt, net of discount and issuance costs, which are amortized to interest expense over the respective contractual terms of these notes using the effective interest method.

The total outstanding debt is summarized below (in millions, except percentages):

			Maturity						Coupon Rate						Effective Interest Rate						June 30, 2024						December 31, 2023
Debt
2026 Senior Notes			March 2026						1.0%						1.3%						$	500.0					$	500.0

Total long-term debt																					$	993.3					$	992.3

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we accrued interest payable of $4.7 million, and there are no financial covenants with which we must comply. During the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded $4.5 million of total interest expense in relation to these Senior Notes in each period. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded $9.0 million of total interest expense in relation to these Senior Notes in each period. No interest costs were capitalized for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, as the costs that qualified for capitalization were not material.

The total estimated fair value of the outstanding Senior Notes was approximately $880.6 million, including accrued and unpaid interest, as of June 30, 2024. The fair value was determined based on observable market prices of identical instruments in less active markets. The estimated fair values are based on Level 2 inputs.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The following table summarizes our inventory purchase commitments as of June 30, 2024 (in millions):

			Total						2024						Thereafter
Inventory purchase commitments			$	566.7					$	500.1					$	66.6

Inventory Purchase Commitments—We purchase components of our inventory from certain suppliers and use several independent contract manufacturers to provide manufacturing services for our products. During the normal course of business, in order to manage manufacturing lead times and help ensure adequate component supply, we enter into agreements with contract manufacturers and suppliers that allow them to procure inventory based upon criteria as defined by us or establish the parameters defining our requirements. A significant portion of our reported purchase commitments arising from these agreements consists of firm, non-cancelable and unconditional commitments. Certain of these inventory purchase commitments with contract manufacturers and suppliers relate to arrangements to secure supply and pricing for certain product components for multi-year periods. In certain instances, these agreements allow us the option to reschedule and adjust our requirements based on our business needs prior to firm orders being placed.

As of June 30, 2024, we had $566.7 million of non-cancelable inventory purchase commitments with our independent contract manufacturers. We recorded a liability for these purchase commitments for quantities in excess of our future estimated demand forecasts, consistent with the valuation of our excess and obsolete inventory. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the liability for these inventory purchase commitments was $105.2 million and $84.7 million, respectively, and was recorded in accrued liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The expense related to such accrued liability for inventory purchase commitments was $7.0 million and $12.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and was recorded in cost of product revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The expense related to such accrued liability for inventory purchase commitments was $38.6 million and $22.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and was recorded in cost of product revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Other Contractual Commitments and Open Purchase Orders—In addition to commitments with contract manufacturers, we have open purchase orders and contractual obligations in the ordinary course of business for which we have not received goods or services. A significant portion of our reported purchase commitments consist of non-cancelable commitments. In certain instances, contractual commitments allow us the option to cancel, reschedule and adjust our requirements based on our business needs prior to firm orders being placed. As of June 30, 2024, we had $40.4 million in other contractual commitments having a remaining term in excess of one year that are non-cancelable.

As of June 30, 2024, we had $82.9 million in contractual commitments related to payments for operating leases.

Litigation—We are involved in disputes, litigation, and other legal actions. For lawsuits where we are the defendant, we are in the process of defending these litigation matters, and while there can be no assurances and the outcome of certain of these matters is currently not determinable and not predictable, we currently are unaware of any existing claims or proceedings that we believe are likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position. There are many uncertainties associated with any litigation and these actions or other third-party claims against us may cause us to incur costly litigation fees, costs and substantial settlement charges, and possibly subject us to damages and other penalties. In addition, the resolution of any intellectual property (“IP”) litigation may require us to make royalty payments, which could adversely affect our gross margins in future periods. If any of those events were to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be adversely affected. Litigation is unpredictable and the actual liability in any such matters may be materially different from our current estimates, which could result in the need to adjust any accrued liability and record additional expenses. We accrue for contingencies when we believe that a loss is probable and that we can reasonably estimate the amount of any such loss. These accruals are generally based on a range of possible outcomes that require significant management judgement. If no amount within a range is a better estimate than any other, we accrue the minimum amount. Litigation loss contingency accruals associated with outstanding cases were not material as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023.

On March 21, 2019, we were sued by Alorica Inc. (“Alorica”) in Santa Clara County Superior Court in California. Alorica has alleged breach of warranty and misrepresentation claims, which we deny. Fact discovery closed during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and trial is currently set for September 2024. Although we believe that the ultimate outcome of this matter will not materially impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and an unfavorable ruling could occur, which may result in a material adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows. No loss accrual had been recorded as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023 related to this litigation.

FORTINET, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Indemnification and Other Matters—We enter into indemnification provisions in the ordinary course of business with other companies such as partners, customers, and vendors, where we agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse the indemnified party for certain losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party as a result of our activities, including defending against third-party claims asserting various allegations such as product defects, breach of representations or covenants, and infringement of certain IP rights, which may include patents, copyrights, trademarks or trade secrets, and to pay judgments entered on such claims. In some contracts, our exposure under these indemnification provisions is limited by the terms of the contracts to certain defined limits, such as the total amount paid by our customer under the agreement. However, certain agreements include covenants, penalties and indemnification provisions including and beyond indemnification for third-party claims of IP infringement that could potentially expose us to losses in excess of the amount received under the agreement, and in some instances to potential liability that is not contractually limited. Although from time to time there are indemnification claims asserted against us and currently there are pending indemnification claims, to date there have been no material awards under such indemnification provisions.

Similar to other security companies and companies in other industries, we have experienced and may experience in the future, cybersecurity threats, malicious activity directed against our information technology infrastructure or unauthorized attempts to gain access to our and our customers’ sensitive information and systems. We currently are unaware of any existing claims or proceedings related to these types of matters, including any that we believe are likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position.

11. EQUITY PLANS AND SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

We maintain the Amended and Restated Fortinet, Inc. 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Amended Plan”) pursuant to which we have granted RSUs, stock options and PSUs. As of June 30, 2024, there were a total of 51.2 million shares of common stock available for grant under the Amended Plan.

Restricted Stock Units

The following table summarizes the activity and related information for RSUs for the periods presented below (in millions, except per share amounts):

			Restricted Stock Units Outstanding

Forfeited			(0.5)						56.99
Vested			(2.7)						48.62
Balance—June 30, 2024			8.9						$	58.81

Stock compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each RSU. As of June 30, 2024, total compensation expense related to unvested RSUs granted to employees and non-employees under the Amended Plan, but not yet recognized, was $477.6 million, with a weighted-average remaining vesting period of 2.7 years.

RSUs settle into shares of common stock upon vesting. Upon the vesting of the RSUs, we net-settle the RSUs and withhold a portion of the shares to satisfy employee withholding tax requirements. The payment of the withheld taxes to the tax authorities is reflected as a financing activity within the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

Market/Performance-Based PSUs

We granted market/performance-based PSUs under the Amended Plan to certain of our executives. Based on the achievement of the market/performance-based vesting conditions during the performance period, the final settlement of the PSUs will range between 0% and 200% of the target shares underlying the PSUs based on the percentile ranking of our total stockholder return over one-, two-, three- and four-year periods among companies included in the S&P 500 Index. 20%, 20%, 20% and 40% of the PSUs vest over one-, two-, three- and four-year service periods, respectively.

The following table summarizes the weighted-average assumptions relating to our PSUs:

			Three Months Ended												Six Months Ended

We granted less than 0.1 million shares of PSU awards and approximately 0.3 million shares of PSU awards with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $73.00 and $97.22 per share to certain of our executives during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. We granted approximately 0.3 million shares of PSU awards with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $90.96 per share to certain of our executives during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The grant date fair value of these awards was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model. Approximately 0.1 million shares of PSU awards vested during the first quarter of 2024. No shares of PSU awards vested during the second quarter of 2024 or the six months ended June 30, 2023. Approximately 0.1 million shares of PSU awards were forfeited during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. None of these PSU awards were forfeited during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

As of June 30, 2024, total compensation expense related to unvested PSUs that were granted to certain of our executives, but not yet recognized, was $31.6 million. This expense is expected to be amortized on a graded vesting method over a weighted-average vesting period of 2.4 years.

Share Repurchase Program

In January 2024, our board of directors approved a $500.0 million increase in the authorized share repurchase amount under the Repurchase Program, bringing the aggregate amount authorized to be repurchased to $7.25 billion of our outstanding common stock. In February 2024, our board of directors approved an extension of the Repurchase Program to February 28, 2025. Share repurchases may be made by us from time to time in privately negotiated transactions or in open-market transactions. The Repurchase Program does not require us to purchase a minimum number of shares, and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

There were no shares repurchased under the Repurchase Program during the six months ended June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, $1.03 billion remained available for future share repurchases under the Repurchase Program.

12. INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rate was 16% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to an effective tax rate of 9% for the same period last year. Our effective tax rate was 14% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to an effective tax rate of 8% for the same period last year. The tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were composed of U.S. federal and state taxes, withholding taxes and foreign taxes that amounted to $109.9 million and $84.8 million, respectively. The tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was impacted by a tax benefit of $27.2 million from the foreign-derived intangible income (“FDII”) deduction, and excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation expense of $6.2 million. The tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was impacted by a tax benefit of $25.8 million from the FDII deduction, excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation expense of $13.3 million, and the release of reserves of $18.1 million on uncertain tax positions and the accrued interest thereon due to the expiration of statues of limitations.

The tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were composed of U.S. federal and state taxes, withholding taxes and foreign taxes that amounted to $191.3 million and $170.6 million, respectively. The tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was impacted by a tax benefit of $50.8 million from the FDII deduction, and excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation expense of $24.5 million. The tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was impacted by a tax benefit of $64.0 million from the FDII deduction, excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation expense of $39.6 million, and the release of reserves of $18.1 million on uncertain tax positions and the accrued interest thereon due to the expiration of statutes of limitations.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, unrecognized tax benefits were $68.3 million and $65.8 million, respectively. If recognized, $57.4 million of the unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2024 would favorably affect our effective tax rate. It is our policy to include accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, accrued interest and penalties were $7.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively. It is reasonably possible that our gross unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by up to $3.9 million in the next 12

months, due to the lapse of statutes of limitation in various jurisdictions. This decrease, if recognized, would favorably impact our effective tax rate, and would be recognized as an additional tax benefit.

We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in various U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions. Generally, we are no longer subject to examination by U.S federal income tax authorities for tax years prior to 2015. We are no longer subject to U.S. state and foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years prior to 2010. We currently have ongoing tax audits in the United Kingdom, Canada and several other foreign jurisdictions. The focus of these audits is the inter-company profit allocation.

On January 4, 2022, the U.S. Treasury published another tranche of final regulations regarding the foreign tax credit. These final regulations impose new requirements that a foreign tax must meet in order to be creditable against U.S. income taxes, and generally apply to tax years beginning on or after December 28, 2021. On July 26, 2022, the U.S. Treasury released corrections to the final regulations. On July 21, 2023, the IRS released a notice that suspended the application of significant portions of the final regulations regarding the foreign tax credit for tax years 2022 and 2023. The notice released in July 2023 favorably impacted our ability to claim foreign tax credits in the United States for certain taxes imposed by certain foreign jurisdictions. On December 11, 2023, the IRS released a notice that extended the suspension of significant portions of the final regulations beyond December 31, 2023, until further guidance is issued.

In December 2021, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (the “OECD”) enacted model rules for a new global minimum tax framework (“BEPS Pillar Two”), and various governments around the world have enacted, or are in the process of enacting, legislation on this. The OECD continues to release additional guidance on these rules. Based on the enacted laws, BEPS Pillar Two has no impact to our effective tax rate or cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024. We will continue to evaluate the impact of these tax law changes on future reporting periods.

13. DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS

Our tax-deferred savings plan under our 401(k) Plan permits participating U.S. employees to contribute a portion of their pre-tax or after-tax earnings. In Canada, we have a Group Registered Retirement Savings Plan Program (the “RRSP”), which permits participants to make pre-tax contributions. Our board of directors approved 50% matching contributions on employee contributions up to 4% of each employee’s eligible earnings. Our matching contributions to our 401(k) Plan and the RRSP for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $4.3 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Our matching contributions to our 401(k) Plan and the RRSP for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $10.6 million and $10.1 million, respectively.

14. 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 in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our chief operating decision maker is our chief executive officer. Our chief executive officer reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by information about revenue by geographic region for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. We have one business activity, and there are no segment managers who are held accountable for operations, operating results and plans for levels or components below the consolidated unit level. Accordingly, we have determined that we have one operating segment, and therefore, one reportable segment.

Revenue by geographic region is based on the billing address of our customers. The following tables set forth revenue and property and equipment—net by geographic region (in millions):
