Talkspace, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company” or “Talkspace”) is a leading behavioral healthcare company enabled by a purpose-built technology platform. Talkspace provides individuals and licensed therapists, psychologists and psychiatrists with an online platform for one-on-one therapy delivered via messaging, audio and video.

The Company's principal executive office is located in New York, NY. The Company has three wholly owned subsidiaries, Talkspace LLC, Talkspace Network LLC and Groop Internet Platform LTD. In addition, the Company holds a variable interest in one professional association and six professional corporations, which have been established pursuant to the requirements of their respective domestic jurisdiction governing the corporate practice of medicine.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

NOTE 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, when the Company satisfies its performance obligation to perform its defined contractual obligations to provide virtual behavioral healthcare services. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company will be entitled in exchange for the service rendered. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

Through its platform, Talkspace serves its business-to-business (“B2B”) channel, comprised of large health insurance plans and employee assistance programs (“Payors”), and large enterprise clients (“DTE”) who offer their insured members and employees access to the Company's platform at in-network reimbursement rates, or while their employer is under an active contract with Talkspace, where applicable, and its business-to-consumer (“Consumer”) channel, comprised of individual consumers who subscribe directly to the Company's platform.

The Company contracts with Payors to provide its therapy and psychiatry services to their eligible covered members. Revenue is recognized at a point in time, as virtual therapy or psychiatry session is rendered. The transaction price is determined based on contracted rates and includes variable consideration in the form of implicit price concessions. The Company determines the total transaction price, including an estimate of variable consideration, at contract inception and reassesses this estimate at each reporting date. The Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that is included in the transaction price primarily based on historical collection experience for each insurance payor. Revenue from Payors is presented net of implicit price concessions. Contracts with Payors include annual evergreen clauses and generally may be terminated by either party typically upon a minimum 60-day advance notice.

The Company contracts with enterprises to provide access to its therapist platform for their employees, primarily based on a per-member-per-month access fee model. Revenues from access fees are recognized ratably over the contractual term. The majority of contracts with enterprise clients typically range in length from one to three years and are generally non-cancelable during the initial contractual term.

The Company also generates revenues from the sale of monthly, quarterly, bi-annual and annual membership subscriptions to the Company's therapy platform as well as supplementary a la carte offerings directly to individual consumers through a subscription plan. The Company recognizes consumer revenues ratably over the subscription period, beginning when therapy services commence. The Company recognizes revenues from supplementary a la carte offerings at a point in time, as virtual therapy session is rendered. Members may cancel their subscription at any time and will receive a pro-rata refund for the subscription price. The transaction price from member subscription revenue and supplementary a la carte offerings includes variable consideration in the form of refunds. The Company estimates the refund liability for the variable consideration portion of the transaction price primarily based on historical experience. The refund liability is recorded within the “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” line item in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Revenue from individual consumers is presented net of refunds.

The following table presents the Company’s revenues from sales to unaffiliated customers disaggregated by revenue source:

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

Accounts receivables are stated net of credit losses allowance. The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through its contracts with health insurance plans, employee assistance programs and enterprise clients. The Company’s methodology for estimating credit loss is based on historical collection experience, customer creditworthiness, current and future economic condition and market condition. Additionally, specific allowance amounts are established to record the appropriate provision for customers that have a higher probability of default. Accounts receivables are written off after all reasonable means to collect the full amount have been exhausted. The allowance for credit losses was immaterial as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Deferred Revenue

The Company records deferred revenues when cash payments from customers are received in advance of the Company's performance obligation to provide services. As of June 30, 2023, deferred revenue related mainly to the Company’s consumer channel. The Company expects to satisfy the majority of its performance obligations associated with deferred revenue within one year or less.

NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The carrying value of the Company’s cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the relatively short-term nature of the underlying assets. The Company’s Private Placement Warrants are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each period.

The Private Placement Warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and are presented within warrant liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrant liabilities were measured at fair value at inception and thereafter on a recurring, quarterly basis, with changes in fair value presented within financial (income) expense, net, in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The Private Placement Warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes-Merton Model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement. The primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants is the implied volatility from the trading prices of the Public Warrants.

NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Litigation

In January 2022, the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors were named as defendants in securities class action complaints filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York under the case headings: (1) Baron v. Talkspace et al., No. 22-cv-00163 (S.D.N.Y.) and (2) Valdez v. Talkspace et al., No. 22-cv-00840 (S.D.N.Y.), which were subsequently consolidated under the caption In re Talkspace, Inc. Securities Litigation, No. 22-cv-00163 (S.D.N.Y) (the “Securities Action”). The Securities Action asserts violations of sections 10(b), 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rules 10b-5 and 14a-9 promulgated thereunder. These actions generally relate to public disclosures and statements by the Company in connection with its merger with Hudson Executive Investment Corp. (“HEIC”).

In December 2022, the Company’s subsidiary Tailwind Merger Sub II, LLC, certain of the Company’s current and former directors and officers, and others were named as defendants in a putative class action complaint filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery under the case caption Valdez v. Braunstein, et al., C.A. No. 2022-1148 (Del. Ch.) (the “Delaware Action”). The Delaware Action asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty relating to the merger with HEIC, among other things, based on many of the same facts at issue in the Securities Action. The complaint seeks, among other things damages on behalf of putative class members who did not redeem their shares in connection with the Company’s merger with HEIC.

In February 2023, the Company resolved the Securities Action and the Delaware Action through mediation. The settlement resolves these litigations with respect to all named defendants. The settlement will have to be approved by the court, which the Company expects will occur in the third quarter of 2023.

In June and July 2022, two individuals filed stockholder derivative lawsuits on behalf of Talkspace in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York under the case captions: (1) Odsvall v. Oren Frank et al., No. 22-cv-05016 (S.D.N.Y.) and (2) Nayman v. Berg, et al., No. 22-cv-06258 (S.D.N.Y.), which were subsequently consolidated under the caption In re Talkspace Stockholder Derivative Litigation, No. 22-cv-05016 (S.D.N.Y.) in September 2022 (the “Derivative Action”). The Derivative Action named certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors as defendants and the Company as a nominal defendant. The Derivative Action asserted claims for violations of federal securities laws, breach of fiduciary duty, and aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duty relating to the merger with HEIC, among other things, based on many of the same facts at issue in the Securities Action.

In February 2023 the parties reached an agreement in principle to resolve the Derivative Action with respect to all named defendants in exchange for certain changes to the Company’s Corporate Governance environment, including the declassification of the Company’s board of directors, creation of a management-level disclosure committee, enhancements to the responsibilities and duties of the Company’s Audit Committee, the addition of independent directors, enhancements to employee compliance training and retention of an internal controls consultant. In addition, the Company agreed to pay or cause to be paid $550,000 in attorney’s fees and expenses. On May 18, 2023, the parties entered into a Stipulation of Settlement and Release Agreement (the “Stipulation”) that sets forth the terms and conditions for the proposed settlement and dismissal with prejudice of the Derivative Action (the “Settlement”). On June 30, 2023, the court entered an order preliminarily approving the Stipulation and proposed Settlement of the Derivative Action and scheduling a hearing for August 16, 2023 to determine whether to give final approval to the Settlement. The defendants have not admitted any liability or wrongdoing in connection with the Settlement and have entered into the Settlement solely to avoid the costs, risks, distraction, and uncertainties of continued litigation of the Derivative Action.

In addition to the foregoing, the Company may in the future be involved in various legal proceedings, claims and litigation that arise in the normal course of business. The Company accrues for estimated loss contingencies related to legal matters when available information indicates that it is probable a liability had been incurred and the Company can reasonably estimate the amount of that loss. In many proceedings, however, it is inherently difficult to determine whether any loss is probable or even possible or to estimate the amount of any loss. In addition, even where a loss is possible or an exposure to loss exists in excess of the liability already accrued with respect to a previously recognized loss contingency, it is often not possible to reasonably estimate the size of the possible loss or range of loss or possible additional losses or range of additional losses.

Warranties and Indemnification

The Company’s arrangements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying clients against liabilities if there is a breach of a client’s data or if the Company’s service infringes a third party’s intellectual property rights. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications.

The Company has also agreed to indemnify its directors and executive officers for costs associated with any fees, expenses, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any of these persons in any action or proceeding to which any of those persons is, or is threatened to be, made a party by reason of the person’s service as a director or officer, including any action by the Company, arising out of that person’s services as a director or officer or that person’s services provided to any other company or enterprise at the Company’s request. The Company maintains director and officer liability insurance coverage that would generally enable it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. The Company may also be subject to indemnification obligations by law with respect to the actions of its employees under certain circumstances and in certain jurisdictions.

NOTE 6. CAPITAL STOCK
