SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presenta tion—The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the condensed consolidated statements of mezzanine equity and stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 have been prepared by the Company and have not been audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments except where disclosed) necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been made. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any future period.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements may not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies since December 31, 2025.

Basis of Accounting—The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include 100% of the accounts of wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. The ownership interest of the minority investor as of December 31, 2024 is recorded as a non-controlling interest in CCCIS Cayman Holdings Limited (“CCC Cayman”), the parent of the Company’s China operations.

Use of Estimates—The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts, and the disclosures of contingent amounts, in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Although the Company regularly assesses its estimates, actual results could differ from management’s estimates if past experience or other assumptions are not substantially accurate. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Significant estimates in these condensed consolidated financial statements include the estimation of contract transaction prices, the determination of the amortization period for contract assets, the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, and the estimates and assumptions associated with stock incentive plans.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In September 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-06, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. Among other things, this update removes the accounting consideration of software project development stages, and requires an entity to start capitalizing software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and used to perform its intended function. The guidance can be applied on a prospective basis, modified basis, or retrospective basis. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods in those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2025-06 to its consolidated financial statements.

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. This update requires new disclosures aimed at enhancing transparency in financial reporting by requiring disaggregation of specific expense captions within the statement of operations. Under the update, entities are required to disclose a breakdown of certain expense categories, such as: employee compensation; depreciation; amortization, and other material components. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the disclosure requirements related to this update.

There have been no other recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements that are of significance or potential significance to us.

BUSINESS ACQUISITION

Refer to Note 3, “Business Acquisition,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for additional details, including the final purchase price allocation.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification 805. The purchase price allocation was finalized during the quarter ended December 31, 2025. The transaction resulted in the recognition of $537.8 million of goodwill and $167.9 million of identifiable intangible assets (consisting of acquired technology, customer relationships, and a trademark), which remain unchanged from year-end 2025. Goodwill and intangible assets are not deductible for tax purposes.

In accordance with the acquisition agreement, $8.9 million of the purchase price was held in escrow for post-closing adjustments and indemnity holdbacks. During 2025, the purchase price adjustment escrow was settled, with $2.6 million paid to the sellers and $4.7 million returned to the Company (reducing the purchase consideration and related goodwill). As of September 30, 2026, the remaining escrow for general indemnity was $1.6 million, unchanged from December 31, 2025, and subject to release within 36 months of the closing date, pending any indemnity claims. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2026, the $3.2 million option holdback related to certain unvested EvolutionIQ stock options was settled, with the Company retaining $3.1 million in cash and returning $0.1 million to the selling shareholders, consistent with the terms of the acquisition agreement.

No business combinations were completed during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Interest Rate Swaps—In February 2025, the Company entered into three interest rate swap agreements to reduce its exposure to variability from future cash flows resulting from interest rate risk related to its floating rate long-term debt (see Note 14). The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements was estimated using inputs that were observable or that could be corroborated by observable market data and therefore was classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2026.

The Company does not designate its interest rate swap agreements as hedging instruments and records the changes in fair value within other income (expense)-net on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As of September 30, 2026, the Company's interest rate swap agreements were in asset positions, with a total fair value of $2.6 million recorded within other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2026.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis—The Company has assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets include those associated with acquired businesses, including goodwill and other intangible assets. For these assets, measurement at fair value in periods subsequent to their initial recognition is applicable if one or more is determined to be impaired.

The Company didnot recognize any impairment charges related to these assets during thethree and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments—The following table presents the carrying amounts, net of debt discount, and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments that are not recorded at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets (in thousands):

DescriptionAmountFair ValueAmountFair Value
Term Loan, including current maturities$1,280,303$1,276,411$1,289,968$1,294,220

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, including current maturities, was estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar instruments and fluctuates with changes in applicable interest rates among other factors. The fair value of long-term debt is classified as a Level 2 measurement in the fair value hierarchy and is established based on observable inputs in less active markets.

LONG-TERM DEBT

On September 21, 2021, CCC Intelligent Solutions Inc., the Company’s operating subsidiary, entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “2021 Credit Agreement”). Refer to Note 15, “Long-Term Debt,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for a full description of the 2021 Credit Agreement (including detailed terms and amendments). The Company’s long-term debt comprises a senior secured term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a revolving credit facility (the “2021 Revolving Credit Facility”) under the 2021 Credit Agreement.

Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility – At September 30, 2026, the Term Loan had an outstanding principal balance of$1,281.2 million (with $13.0 million classified as current), compared to $1,291.0 million at December 31, 2025. The Term Loan matures on January 23, 2032 and requires quarterly principal payments of $3.3 million through December 31, 2031, with the remaining balance due at maturity. No amounts were drawn on the $250.0 million 2021 Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2026. The 2021 Revolving Credit Facility matures on September 23, 2029 (subject to a springing maturity on June 22, 2028 if more than $234.0 million of Term Loan remains outstanding at that date).

As of September 30, 2026, the Companyhad $1.0 million of outstanding standby letters of credit, which reduced the available borrowing capacity under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility to $249.0 million. As of September 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, $249.0 million and $248.9 million were available to be borrowed, respectively, under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility.

Interest Rates – Borrowings under the 2021 Credit Agreement bear interest at variable rates (Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") or base rate) plus an applicable margin. Under the 2021 Credit Agreement’s current terms, the Term Loan interest margin is 2.00% for SOFR-based loans (1.00% for base rate loans), with a potential 0.25% margin reduction if the Company’s first lien debt credit ratings reach specified thresholds (BB-/Ba3 or better). A quarterly commitment fee of up to 0.50% applies to unused commitments under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility.

During the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the weighted-average interest rate on the outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan was 5.8%and 6.4%, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, the weighted-average interest rate on the outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan was 5.8%and 6.3%, respectively.

Collateral and Covenants – The Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility are senior secured obligations, guaranteed by the Cypress Intermediate Holdings II, LLC, and certain of the Company's other U.S. subsidiaries, and secured by first-priority liens on the equity of CCC Intelligent Solutions Inc. and substantially all of its assets (subject to customary exceptions). The 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants (including limitations on additional debt, liens, mergers, dividends, and investments) and a financial covenant requiring that if Revolver borrowings exceed 35% ofthe aggregate commitments of the Company, the leverage ratio of CCC Intelligent Solutions Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries cannot exceed 6.25 to 1.00. Revolver borrowings did not exceed this threshold as of September 30, 2026, and the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.

Long-term debt as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, consists of the following (in thousands):

20262025
Term Loan$1,281,216$1,290,990

Less: Current portion(13,033)(13,033)
Total long-term debt—Net of current portion$1,256,563$1,264,941
