CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may be forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “targets,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions.

The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, risks related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business or future results; risks related to supply chain disruptions; increases in interest rates; fluctuations in energy prices; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates in the markets in which we operate internationally; inflation; prolonged power outages, shortages or capacity constraints; physical and electronic security breaches and cyber-attacks, which could disrupt our operations; any failure of our physical infrastructure or negative impact on our ability to provide our services, or damage to customer infrastructure within our data centers; inadequate or inaccurate external and internal information, including budget and planning data, which could lead to inaccurate financial forecasts and inappropriate financial decisions; our fluctuating operating results; our ability to maintain our credit ratings; our government contracts, which are subject to early termination, audits, investigations, sanctions and penalties; our reliance on third parties to provide internet connectivity to our data centers; the incurrence of goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges, or impairment charges to our property and equipment, which could result in a significant reduction to our earnings; our ability to access external sources of capital on favorable terms or at all, which could limit our ability to execute our business and growth strategies; the requirements of being a public company, including maintaining adequate internal controls over financial and management systems; our ability to manage our growth; volatility of the market price of our Class A common stock; future sales, or the perception of future sales, of our Class A common stock by existing security holders in the public market, which could cause the market price for our Class A common stock to decline; and our ability to use our United States federal and state net operating losses to offset future United States federal and applicable state taxable income may be subject to certain limitations that could accelerate or permanently increase taxes owed; and other factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the documents that we reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and have filed as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and achievements may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of any new information, future events or otherwise.

Note 1.    Organization and description of the business

Cyxtera Technologies, Inc. (“Cyxtera”) is a global data center leader in retail colocation and interconnection services. Cyxtera’s data center platform consists of 66 data centers across 33 markets on three continents.

Cyxtera was incorporated in Delaware as Starboard Value Acquisition Corp. (“SVAC”) on November 14, 2019. On July 29, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), SVAC consummated the previously announced business combination pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated February 21, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among SVAC, Cyxtera Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (now known as Cyxtera Technologies, LLC) (“Legacy Cyxtera”), Mundo Merger Sub 1, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of SVAC (“Merger Sub 1”), Mundo Merger Sub 2, LLC (now known as Cyxtera Holdings, LLC), a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of SVAC (“Merger Sub 2”), and Mundo Holdings, Inc. (“NewCo”), a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of SIS Holdings LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“SIS”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Legacy Cyxtera was contributed to NewCo and then converted into a limited liability company and, thereafter, Merger Sub 1 was merged with and into NewCo, with NewCo surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of SVAC and immediately following such merger and as part of the same overall transaction NewCo was merged with and into Merger Sub 2, with Merger Sub 2 surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of SVAC (the “Business Combination” and, collectively with the other transactions described in the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”). On the Closing Date, and in connection with the closing of the Business Combination, SVAC changed its name to Cyxtera Technologies, Inc.

Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Cyxtera” refer to the consolidated operations of Cyxtera Technologies, Inc. and its subsidiaries. References to “SVAC” refer to Starboard Value Acquisition Corp. prior to the consummation of the Business Combination and references to “Legacy Cyxtera” refer to the former Cyxtera Technologies, Inc. (now known as Cyxtera Technologies, LLC) prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

Legacy Cyxtera was deemed the accounting acquirer in the Business Combination based on an analysis of the criteria outlined in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805. This determination was primarily based on Legacy Cyxtera’s shareholders prior to the Business Combination having a majority of the voting power in the combined company, Legacy Cyxtera having the ability to appoint a majority of the board of directors of the combined company, Legacy Cyxtera’s existing management comprising the senior management of the combined company, Legacy Cyxtera’s operations comprising the ongoing operations of the combined company, Legacy Cyxtera being the larger entity based on historical revenues and business operations and the combined company assuming Legacy Cyxtera’s name. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Legacy Cyxtera issuing stock for the net assets of SVAC, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of SVAC are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

While SVAC was the legal acquirer in the Business Combination, because Legacy Cyxtera was deemed the accounting acquirer, the historical financial statements of Legacy Cyxtera became the historical financial statements of the combined company upon the consummation of the Business Combination. As a result, the financial statements included in this report reflect: (i) the historical operating results of Legacy Cyxtera prior to the Business Combination; (ii) the consolidated results of SVAC and Legacy Cyxtera following the close of the Business Combination; (iii) the assets and liabilities of Legacy Cyxtera at their historical cost; and (iv) the Company’s equity structure for all periods presented.

In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, the equity structure has been restated in all comparative periods up to the Closing Date to reflect the number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class A common stock”), issued to Legacy Cyxtera’s shareholders in connection with the Business Combination. As such, the shares and corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share related to Legacy Cyxtera common stock prior to the Business Combination have been retroactively restated as shares of Class A common stock reflecting the effective exchange ratio of 120,568,182 utilized in the Business Combination. Refer to Note 3 for further discussion of the Cyxtera and SVAC Business Combination.

Note 2.    Basis of presentation and significant accounting policies

a)Basis of presentation and use of estimates

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Cyxtera and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to fairly state the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2021 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) but omit certain information and footnote disclosure necessary to present the statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). For further information, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report on Form 10-K”). Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year.

b)Risks and uncertainties

Preparing financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Examples include, but are not limited to, asset and goodwill impairments, allowance of doubtful accounts, future asset retirement obligations and the potential outcome of future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results and outcomes may differ from these estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties, including uncertainty in the current economic environment.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The full impact that the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will have on our future unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements remains uncertain and ultimately will depend on many factors, including the duration and potential cyclicity of the health crisis, further public policy actions to be taken in response, as well as the continued impact of the pandemic on the global economy and our customers and vendors. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of these potential impacts to our business and unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

c)Update to significant accounting policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are detailed in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 included within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Significant updates to our accounting policies as a result of the adoption of Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-12, Leases, as well as the initial implementation guidance and subsequent amendments to ASU 2017-13, ASU 2018-01, ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-11, ASU 2018-20 and ASU 2020-05 (collectively referred to as “Topic 842”) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are discussed below.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at its inception. The Company enters into lease arrangements primarily for data center spaces, office spaces and equipment. The Company recognizes a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets for all leases with a term longer than 12 months, including renewals.

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. Lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are classified and recognized at the commencement date. Lease liabilities are measured based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets consist of (i) initial measurement of the lease liability; (ii) lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received; and (iii) initial direct costs incurred by the Company. Lease payments may vary because of changes in facts or circumstances occurring after the commencement, including changes in inflation indices. Variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate (such as the Consumer Price Index or a market interest rate) are included in the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities using the index or rate at the commencement date. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are excluded from the measurement of ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Since most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its own incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) on a collateralized basis in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company utilizes a market-based approach to estimate the IBR. The approach requires significant judgment. Therefore, the Company utilizes different data sets to estimate IBRs via an analysis of (i) yields on our outstanding traded bank loans (ii) yields on comparable credit rating composite curves and (iii) yields on comparable market curves.

The majority of the Company’s lease arrangements include options to extend the lease. If the Company is reasonably certain to exercise such options, the periods covered by the options are included in the lease term. The Company recognizes rental expenses for operating leases that contain predetermined fixed escalation clauses on a straight-line basis over the expected term of the lease. The depreciable lives of certain fixed assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term. The Company has certain leases that have an initial term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. For such leases, the Company elected not to recognize any ROU asset or lease liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. The Company elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets for which the Company has identified lease arrangements with non-lease components.

Lease modifications

In the normal course of business, the Company may modify leases which could result in a change from the original lease classification (i.e. finance or operating leases). The Company remeasures the lease liability based on the lease term of the modified leases by discounting revised lease payments using a revised IBR at the effective date of the modification. The Company accounts for the remeasurement of lease liabilities and lease incentives from lessor by making corresponding adjustments to the relevant right-of-use asset.

d)Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company is as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (“JOBS Act”). The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards, such that an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company has elected to avail itself of the extended transition periods and, as a result, the Company will not be required to adopt new or revised accounting standards on the adoption dates required for other public companies so long as the Company remains an emerging growth company.

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022 that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The amendments are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020, through December 31, 2022. The Company is evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326)-Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires companies to measure and recognize lifetime expected credit losses for certain financial instruments, including trade accounts receivable. Expected credit losses are estimated using relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. This amendment is effective commencing in 2023 with early adoption permitted, and the Company expects to adopt the new standard on the effective date or the date it no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company, whichever is earlier. Entities are permitted to use a modified retrospective approach. The Company is evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. We adopted the amendments in Topic 740 as of January 1, 2022, without a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, FASB issued Topic 842, which replaced the guidance in former ASC Topic 840, Leases. The new lease guidance increases transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (1) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s future obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) an operating lease ROU asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The accounting for the Company’s finance leases remains substantially unchanged. Topic 842 allows entities to adopt using one of two methods: the modified retrospective transition method or the alternative transition method.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company adopted Topic 842, with an effective date of January 1, 2022, using the alternative transition method. Therefore, results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2022 are presented under Topic 842, while comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company recognized the cumulative effects of initially applying the standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption.

In adopting the new guidance, the Company elected to apply the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allows the Company not to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases under the new definition of a lease; (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (3) whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under Topic 842.

Adoption of the standard had a significant impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, including the (1) recognition of new ROU assets and liabilities on its balance sheet for all operating leases; and (2) reclassification of previously recognized lease abandonment liabilities, deferred rent, and favorable and unfavorable lease interests, as a reduction of or addition to the ROU assets recognized at adoption. The adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and statements of cash flow.

Note 3.    Business combination

Acquisition of Legacy Cyxtera

On July 29, 2021, Legacy Cyxtera consummated the Business Combination with SVAC, with Legacy Cyxtera deemed the accounting acquirer. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with US GAAP. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Legacy Cyxtera issuing stock for the net assets of SVAC, accompanied by a recapitalization. As stated in Note 1, in connection with the closing of the Business Combination, SVAC was renamed Cyxtera Technologies, Inc.

Of the 40,423,453 shares of SVAC’s Class A common stock (“Public Shares”) issued in its initial public offering (“IPO”) in September 2020, holders of 26,176,891 shares of SVAC’s Class A common stock properly exercised their right to have such shares redeemed for a full pro rata portion of the trust account holding the proceeds from the IPO, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, which was approximately $10.00 per share or $261.8 million in the aggregate. As a result, 14,246,562 shares of Class A common stock remained outstanding leaving $142.5 million in the trust account.

As a result of the Business Combination, 106,100,000 shares of Class A common stock were issued to SIS, the sole shareholder of Legacy Cyxtera prior to the Business Combination, and 25,000,000 shares of Class A common stock were issued to certain qualified institutional buyers and accredited investors, at a price of $10.00 per share, for aggregate consideration of $250.0 million, for the purpose of raising additional capital for use by the combined company following the closing of the Business Combination and satisfying one of the conditions to the closing (the “PIPE Investment”). Additionally, as a result of the Business Combination, 10,526,315 shares of Class A common stock were issued to certain clients of Starboard Value LP (the “Forward Purchasers”) for $100.0 million and 10,105,863 shares of SVAC Class B common stock held by SVAC Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), automatically converted to 10,105,863 shares of Class A common stock.

In connection with the IPO, the Forward Purchasers and SVAC entered into an Optional Share Purchase Agreement, dated September 9, 2020 (the “Optional Share Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Forward Purchasers were granted the option, exercisable anytime or from time to time for the six-month period following the day that is the first business day following the closing of the Company’s initial business combination, to purchase common equity of the surviving entity in the initial business combination (the “Optional Shares”) at a price per Optional Share of $10.00, subject to adjustments. In connection with the Merger Agreement, Legacy Cyxtera and

the Forward Purchasers entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which the Forward Purchasers agreed not to purchase Optional Shares for an aggregate amount exceeding $75.0 million. On July 29, 2021, immediately prior to the consummation of the Transactions, Legacy Cyxtera entered into a second letter agreement (the “Optional Purchase Letter Agreement”) with the Forward Purchasers pursuant to which the parties agreed to amend the Optional Share Purchase Agreement to limit the number of Optional Shares available for purchase by the Forward Purchasers in the six-month period following the Transactions from $75.0 million to $37.5 million. Additionally, pursuant to an assignment agreement entered into concurrently with the Optional Purchase Letter Agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”), the Forward Purchasers agreed to assign an option to purchase $37.5 million of Optional Shares under the Optional Share Purchase Agreement to SIS. As a result of the Optional Purchase Letter Agreement and the Assignment Agreement, each of SIS and the Forward Purchasers had the ability to purchase, at a price of $10.00 per share, up to 3.75 million shares of Class A common stock (for a combined maximum amount of $75.0 million or 7.5 million shares) during the six-month period following the day that is the first business day following the closing date of the Transactions. The exercise price of $10.00 per share was subject to adjustment in proportion to any stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits or similar transactions. On January 31, 2022, SIS and the Forward Purchasers exercised the option, and Cyxtera issued 7.5 million shares of Class A common stock to SIS and the Forward Purchasers at a price of $10.00 per share, for aggregate consideration of $75.0 million. Since SIS and the Forward Purchasers exercised the option, the Company was obligated to issue shares of Class A common stock in exchange for cash (and the option settled on a gross basis). The accounting guidance in ASC Subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC Subtopic 815-40”), states that contracts should be classified as equity instruments (and not as an asset or liability) if they are both (1) indexed to the issuer’s own stock and (2) classified in stockholders’ equity in the issuer’s statement of financial position. The optional share purchase options were indexed to the Company’s Class A common stock because the options were considered a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares, pursuant to which the option holder would receive a fixed number of Class A common stock for a fixed conversion price of $10.00 per share. The Optional Share Purchase Agreement contained no contingent exercise or settlement provisions that would preclude equity classification.

After giving effect to the Transactions, the redemption of the Public Shares as described above, the issuance of shares as part of the forward purchase and the consummation of the PIPE Investment, there were 165,978,740 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding. The Class A common stock and Public Warrants (as defined in Note 4) commenced trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC (“Nasdaq”) on July 30, 2021. As noted above, an aggregate of $261.8 million was paid from SVAC’s trust account to holders that properly exercised their right to have Public Shares redeemed, and the remaining balance immediately prior to the closing remained in the trust account. After taking into account the funds of $142.5 million in the trust account and $1.4 million from SVAC’s cash operating accounts after redemptions, the $250.0 million in gross proceeds from the PIPE Investment and the $100.0 million in gross proceeds from the forward purchase, the Company received approximately $493.9 million in total cash from the Business Combination, before direct and incremental transaction costs of approximately $59.4 million and debt repayment of $433.0 million plus accrued interest. The $433.0 million debt repayment includes the full repayment of Legacy Cyxtera’s 2017 Second Lien Term Facility (as defined in Note 11) of $310.0 million and pay down of Legacy Cyxtera’s Revolving Facility and 2021 Revolving Facility (each as defined in Note 11) of $123.0 million, plus accrued interest.

In December 2021, the Company announced that it would redeem all of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants (as defined in Note 4) that remained outstanding as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 19, 2022. On January 26, 2022, the Company announced that it had completed the redemption of all of its outstanding warrants that were issued under the warrant agreement and that remained outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 19, 2022. Upon completion of the redemption, the Public Warrants ceased trading on the Nasdaq and were deregistered.

Prior to the Business Combination, Legacy Cyxtera and SVAC filed separate standalone federal, state and local income tax returns. As a result of the Business Combination, which qualified as a reverse recapitalization, SVAC (now known as Cyxtera Technologies, Inc.) became the parent of the consolidated filing group, with Legacy Cyxtera (now known as Cyxtera Technologies, LLC) as a subsidiary.

Note 4.    Loss per common share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding (the denominator) for the period. Diluted loss per share assumes that any dilutive equity instruments were exercised with outstanding Class A common stock adjusted accordingly when the conversion of such instruments would be dilutive.

The Company’s potential dilutive shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, including public warrants (“Public Warrants”) and private placement warrants (“Private Placement Warrants”), unvested employee stock options, unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”), unvested performance stock units (“PSUs”) and options issued to the Forward Purchasers and SIS pursuant to the Optional Share Purchase Agreement, have been excluded from diluted net loss per share as the effect would be to reduce the net loss per share. The Company excluded the following potential shares of Class A common stock, from the computation of diluted net loss per share during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 because including them would have an anti-dilutive effect:

(1) Optional shares were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share for the periods these instruments represented potential dilutive common stock equivalents during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

In addition, 19.4 million of Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, were excluded from the computation of net loss per share for the period January 1, 2022 through January 24, 2022, because they would have had an anti-dilutive effect on the computation of diluted net loss.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company did not have any potential dilutive shares.

Note 5.    Restructuring, impairment, site closures and related costs

Addison site

In January 2021, the Company notified the landlord of the Addison office space in Texas of its intent to sublease the property for the remaining 10 years. The Company ceased use of and subleased the space during the three months ended March 31, 2021. In connection with this decision, the Company incurred $7.9 million of expenses, including $5.9 million of accrued lease termination costs and $2.0 million of asset disposals.

Moses Lake site

In February 2021, the Company notified the landlord of the Moses Lake data center facility in the State of Washington of its intent to cease the use of the space. Accordingly, the Company accelerated depreciation and amortization of all assets on the site, including favorable leasehold interest amortization, which resulted in additional depreciation and amortization of $0.9 million and $1.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and $0.3 million and $0.6 million of additional favorable leasehold interest amortization, recorded in cost of revenues, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The Company ceased use of the property in June 2021 at which time it met the conditions for recording a charge related to the remaining lease obligation of $58.5 million. There is no sublease in place on this property. Furthermore, management believes the ability to sublease the property is remote and as such has not made any assumption for the future cash flows from a potential sublease in making this estimate.

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted Topic 842, and reclassified $53.0 million of the restructuring liability reserve representing lease abandonment liabilities to the ROU asset. As of June 30, 2022, the restructuring liability reserve relates to the ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, lease abandonment liability for Moses Lake, which was in excess of the ROU asset adjustment. The restructuring liability reserve is included in other liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The activity in restructuring liability reserve for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was as follows (in millions):

Note 6.    Revenue

Disaggregation of revenue

The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers into recurring revenues and non-recurring revenues. Cyxtera derives the majority of its revenues from recurring revenue streams, consisting primarily of colocation service fees. These fees are generally billed monthly and recognized ratably over the term of the contract. The Company’s non-recurring revenues are primarily comprised of installation services related to a customer’s initial deployment and professional services the Company performs. These services are considered to be non-recurring because they are billed typically once, upon completion of the installation or the professional services work performed. The majority of these non-recurring revenues are typically billed on the first invoice distributed to the customer in connection with their initial installation. However, revenues from installation services are deferred and recognized ratably over the period of the contract term in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC Topic 606”) as discussed in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, included within the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The difference between the opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract assets and deferred revenues primarily results from the timing difference between the Company’s performance obligation and the customer’s payment. The amounts of revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 from the opening deferred revenue balance was $7.7 million and $8.4 million, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, no impairment loss related to contract balances was recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

In addition to the contract liability amounts shown above, deferred revenue on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets includes $48.5 million and $46.1 million of advanced billings as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Contract costs

The ending balance of net capitalized contract costs as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $28.3 million and $29.3 million, respectively, $14.3 million and $17.2 million of which were included in prepaid and other current assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and $14.0 million and $12.1 million of which were included in other assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, $10.7 million and $14.5 million, respectively, of contract costs were amortized, $4.6 million and $8.7 million of which were included in cost of revenues, excluding depreciation and amortization in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $6.1 million and $5.8 million of which were included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Remaining performance obligations

Under colocation contracts, Cyxtera’s performance obligations are to provide customers with space and power through fixed duration agreements, which are typically three years. Under these arrangements, the Company bills customer on a monthly basis. Under interconnection agreements, Cyxtera’s performance obligations are to provide customers the ability to establish connections to their network service providers and business partners. Interconnection services are typically offered on month-to-month contract terms and generate recurring revenue.

Cyxtera’s remaining performance obligations under its colocation agreements represent contracted revenue that has not been recognized, which includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized in future periods. The remaining performance obligations do not include estimates of variable consideration related to unsatisfied performance obligations, such as the usage of metered power, or any contracts that could be terminated without significant penalties such as the majority of interconnection revenues. The aggregate amount allocated to performance obligations that were unsatisfied or partially satisfied as of June 30, 2022 was $825.1 million, of which 47%, 27% and 26% is expected to be recognized over the next year, the next one to two years, and thereafter, respectively. The aggregate amount allocated to performance obligations that were unsatisfied as of December 31, 2021 was $818.0 million, of which 45%, 27% and 28% is expected to be recognized over the next year, the next one to two years, and thereafter, respectively.

While initial contract terms vary in length, substantially all contracts automatically renew in one-year increments. Included in the performance obligations is either 1) remaining performance obligations under the initial contract terms or 2) remaining performance obligations related to contracts in the renewal period once the initial terms have lapsed.

Factored receivables

On February 9, 2021, a subsidiary of Cyxtera entered into a Master Receivables Purchase Agreement with Nomura Corporate Funding America, LLC (the “Factor”) to factor up to $37.5 million in open trade receivables at any point during the term of the commitment, which extends for a period of 540 days provided that the Factor has the right to impose additional conditions to its obligations to complete any purchase after 360 days. The Factor has not imposed any such additional conditions. Pursuant to the terms of the arrangement, a subsidiary of the Company shall, from time to time, sell to the Factor certain of its accounts receivable balances on a non-recourse basis for credit approved accounts. The agreement allows for up to 85% of the face amount of an invoice to be factored. The unused balance fee under the arrangement is 2%. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s subsidiary factored $10.9 million of receivables and received $10.7 million, net of fees of $0.2 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company factored $77.0 million of receivables and collected $76.3 million, net of fees of $0.7 million.

On May 1, 2017, a subsidiary of the Company (the “Borrower”) entered into credit agreements for up to $1,275.0 million of borrowings under first and second lien credit agreements (collectively, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”). The Senior Secured Credit Facilities consist of (a) a first lien credit agreement providing for (i) a $150.0 million first lien multi-currency revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) and (ii) (a) an $815.0 million first lien term loan borrowing (the “2017 First Lien Term Facility”), and (b) a second lien credit agreement

(Unaudited)


providing for a $310.0 million second lien term loan credit borrowing (the “2017 Second Lien Term Facility”). On May 13, 2019, the Borrower borrowed an additional $100.0 million under the incremental first lien loan under the first lien credit agreement (the “2019 First Lien Term Facility”). On May 7, 2021, certain of the lenders under the Revolving Facility entered into an amendment with the Borrower pursuant to which they agreed to extend the maturity date for certain revolving commitments from May 1, 2022 to November 1, 2023. Under these terms of the amendment, $141.3 million of commitments under the existing Revolving Facility were exchanged for $120.1 million of commitments under a new revolving facility (the “2021 Revolving Facility”). The 2021 Revolving Facility has substantially the same terms as the Revolving Facility, except that the maturity date of the 2021 Revolving Facility is November 1, 2023. In connection with the amendment, the Company repaid $19.6 million of the outstanding balance under the Revolving Facility on May 10, 2021. The amounts owed under the 2017 Second Lien Term Facility, the Revolving Facility and the 2021 Revolving Facility were repaid in July and August 2021 following the consummation of the Business Combination (see Note 3, Business Combination). Subsequent to the consummation of the Business Combination and the pay-down of the Revolving Facility and the 2021 Revolving Facility, the Company drew down an additional $40.0 million from such revolving facilities during the year ended December 31, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repaid $40.0 million of the outstanding balance under the revolving facilities. Subsequent to paying down the revolving facilities, the Company drew down $20.0 million from the 2021 Revolving Facility during the six months ended June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, a total of $20.0 million was outstanding and approximately $95.1 million was available under the revolving facilities. As of December 31, 2021, a total of $40.0 million was outstanding and approximately $88.8 million was available under the revolving facilities.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities, including the 2019 First Lien Term Facility, are secured by substantially all assets of the Borrower and contain customary covenants, including reporting and financial covenants, some of which require the Borrower to maintain certain financial coverage and leverage ratios, as well as customary events of default, and are guaranteed by certain of the Borrower’s domestic subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2022, the Company believes the Borrower was in compliance with these covenants. The Revolving Facility matured in May 2022 and was not renewed. The 2021 Revolving Facility, the 2017 First Lien Term Facility and the 2019 First Lien Term Facility have an 18 month, seven and five year term, respectively, and are set to expire on November 1, 2023, May 1, 2024, and May 1, 2024, respectively.

The Borrower is required to make amortization payments on each of the 2017 First Lien Term Facility and the 2019 First Lien Term Facility at a rate of 1.0% of the original principal amount per annum, payable on a quarterly basis, with the remaining balance to be repaid in full at maturity. The 2017 First Lien Term Facility bears interest at a rate based on LIBOR plus a margin that can vary from 2.0% to 3.0%. The 2019 First Lien Term Facility bears interest at a rate based on LIBOR plus a margin that can vary from 3.0% to 4.0%. As of June 30, 2022, the rate for the 2017 First Lien Term Facility was 4.0% and the rate for the 2019 First Lien Term Facility was 5.0%.

The 2021 Revolving Facility allows the Borrower to borrow, repay and reborrow over its stated term. The 2021 Revolving Facility provides a sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit of up to $30.0 million at any one time. Borrowings under the 2021 Revolving Facility bear interest at a rate based on LIBOR plus a margin that can vary from 2.5% to 3.0% or, at the Borrower’s option, the alternative base rate, which is defined as the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus, 0.5%, (b) the JP Morgan prime rate or (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1.0%, in each case, plus a margin that can vary from 1.5% to 3.0%. The Borrower is required to pay a letter of credit fee on the face amount of each letter of credit, at a 0.125% rate per annum. The Revolving Facility matured in May 2022 and was not renewed. As of June 30, 2022, the rate for the 2021 Revolving facility was 4.6%. The balance of the 2021 Revolving Facility was $20.0 million as of June 30, 2022.

Note 12.    Warrant liabilities

In September 2020, in connection with the IPO, SVAC issued Public Warrants to purchase shares of the SVAC Class A common stock at $11.50 per share. Simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO, SVAC issued Private Placement Warrants to purchase shares of its Class A common stock at $11.50 per share to the Sponsor and to SVAC’s underwriters. In July 2021, in connection with the Business Combination transaction described in Note 3, additional Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were issued to SVAC common shareholders, including the Forward Purchasers.

In December 2021, the Company announced that it would redeem all of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants that remained outstanding as of 5:00 p.m., New York time, on January 19, 2022 (the “Redemption Time”). Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, prior to the Redemption Time, the warrant holders were permitted to exercise their warrants either (a) on a cash basis by paying the exercise price of $11.50 per warrant in cash or (b) on a “cashless basis,” in which case the holder would receive 0.265 shares of Class A common stock per warrant. As a result of the redemption notice for the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, the valuation method for the Private Placement Warrants was changed from the Monte Carlo Simulation to utilizing a fair value based on the publicly traded closing price of the Public Warrants given that, in connection with the terms of the redemption notice, the exercise and settlement provision of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were substantially the same. Such fair value determination represents a Level 2 fair value input.

On January 26, 2022, the Company completed the redemption of all of its outstanding warrants that were issued under the Warrant Agreement and that remained outstanding at the Redemption Time, at a redemption price of $0.10 per warrant. Between January 1, 2022, and the Redemption Time, warrant holders elected to exercise 126,641 warrants on a cash basis for $1.5 million, and 17,859,466 warrants on a “cashless basis,” resulting in the issuance by the Company of 4,859,162 shares of Class A common stock. On January 26, 2022, the Company redeemed 1,370,760 warrants for $0.1 million, which was recorded as an expense in the change of fair value of warrant liabilities in other income (expenses), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The warrant shares were issued in transactions not requiring registration under the Securities Act in reliance on the

exemption contained in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. Upon completion of the redemption, the Public Warrants ceased trading on the Nasdaq and were deregistered, to the extent unsold.

For the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants exercised through the Redemption Time, the warrants were marked to market through the settlement date utilizing the publicly traded closing stock price of the Public Warrants on the settlement date, with changes in the fair value through the settlement date recorded as change of fair value of warrant liabilities in other income (expenses), net in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Upon settlement, the remaining warrant liabilities were derecognized and the liabilities and cash received from warrant holders was recorded as consideration for the common shares issued (an increase of $54.2 million was recorded to additional paid in capital).

There were no Level 3 warrant liabilities outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Performance Stock Units

The Company has granted PSUs under the Company’s 2021 Plan. The Company has the intent and ability to settle the PSU awards with shares. The PSU will vest based on both the passage of time and achievement of certain market and performance conditions that are measured during a three-year period beginning on January 1, 2022, subject to continued employment on the applicable vesting dates. The actual number of PSUs earned with respect to an award is based upon the target number of PSUs, multiplied by a “payout percentage” ranging from 0% to 200% of target level and determined by the level of performance against pre-established performance or market components for the applicable performance period. The PSUs are subject to two types of performance conditions: relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) based on achievement of certain market conditions, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adj. EBITDA”), each of which is weighted one-half of the PSU, as shown in more detail below.

The award of PSUs will vest in three equal installments on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd anniversary of the grant date. The PSUs will be earned based on the Company’s achievement of the applicable performance goals as follows:

Year One of the performance period: Award will vest based on performance during the first year of the performance period;
Year Two: Award will vest based on cumulative performance during the first two years of the performance period;
Year Three: Award will vest based on cumulative performance during the three years of the performance period.

The payout percentage will be linearly interpolated if achievement falls between the threshold and target or target and maximum levels of performance.

With respect to the TSR measured component, the PSUs were valued using a Monte-Carlo simulation. The key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the TSR measured component of the PSUs at March 23, 2022 (grant date) using the Monte Carlo simulation model were as follows:

InputsAs of March 23, 2022
Risk-free interest rate2.3 %
Volatility for Least-Square Monte Carlo Model39.0 %
Expected Term in Years2.8
Dividend Yield— %
Fair Value of Class A Common Stock$11.66 

With respect to the Adj. EBITDA measured component, the PSUs for the first year were valued using the fair value of the Company’s Class A common stock on the date of the grant, which was $11.66 multiplied by the number of shares of Class A common stock expected to be earned based on the Company’s estimate of future Adj. EBITDA, to be realized in Year One. The Adj. EBITDA measured PSUs for Year Two and Year Three, are not deemed granted for accounting purposes because the adjusted EBITDA targets for 2023 and 2024 are not yet determinable as they have not been approved by the board of directors.

As of June 30, 2022, the total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense, related to unvested PSUs was approximately $5.5 million, before income taxes, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted period of approximately 1.5 years. No PSUs vested during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company estimates that all PSU awards outstanding at June 30, 2022 will vest.

Total PSU compensation expense was $0.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The related income tax benefit for the year ended June 30, 2022 was inconsequential.


Note 15.    Income taxes

The income tax (benefit) and expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, was $(2.0) million and $2.1 million, respectively. The income tax expense on the pre-tax loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to an incremental valuation allowance recorded due to continued losses in the U.S. and other loss jurisdictions, tax expense recorded in foreign jurisdictions where income is generated, certain permanent book to tax differences, as well as an effective settlement with the tax authorities. The effective tax rate was different than the amount expected at the statutory federal income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 as a result of additional state income tax benefits, an increase in the valuation allowance recorded on certain deferred tax assets that management believes are not more likely than not to be fully realized in future periods, certain nondeductible remuneration to covered employees under Internal Revenue Code section 162(m), nondeductible equity-based compensation, the change in fair value of the warrant liabilities, miscellaneous transfer pricing true-ups for final statutory and/or tax returns in certain foreign jurisdictions, and the recognition of a tax expense related to an effective settlement of the Company’s tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for the 2017 tax year. The settlement with the IRS resulted in additional tax expense of $1.2 million from a reduction of the net operating loss carryforward balance. The net additional tax expense resulting from the settlement was $0.2 million after considering the corresponding reduction to the valuation allowance.

The income tax (benefit) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, was $(12.9) million and $(25.8) million, respectively. The income tax (benefit) on the pre-tax loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was different than the amount expected at the statutory federal income tax rate as a result of additional state income tax benefits, an increase in the valuation allowance recorded on certain deferred tax assets that management believes are not more likely than not to be fully realized in future periods, nondeductible equity-based compensation, and the remeasurement of the Company’s net deferred tax assets in the United Kingdom due to an enacted tax rate change.

Note 16.    Commitments and contingencies

Purchase obligations

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $3.0 million and $4.4 million, respectively, of purchase commitments related to IT licenses, utilities and colocation operations. These amounts do not represent the Company’s entire anticipated purchases in the future but represent only those items for which the Company was contractually committed as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Litigation

From time to time, the Company is involved in certain legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. It is the Company’s policy to accrue for amounts related to these legal matters if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable. In the opinion of management, based on consultations with counsel, the results of any of these matters individually and in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.


Note 17.    Segment reporting

Cyxtera’s chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company manages its operations as a single operating segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions – the colocation segment.

The Company derives almost all of its colocation revenue from sales to customers in the United States, based upon the service address of the customer. Revenue derived from customers outside the United States, based upon the service address of the customer, was not significant in any individual foreign country.



Note 18.    Certain relationships and related party transactions

Relationships

The Company is party to the following agreements and key relationships:

Promissory Notes

On March 31, 2019, Appgate Inc., formerly known as Cyxtera Cybersecurity, Inc. (“Appgate”) issued promissory notes to each of the Company and Cyxtera Management, Inc. (the “Management Company”) (together, the “Promissory Notes”) evidencing certain funds borrowed by Appgate from each of the Company and the Management Company as well as potential future borrowings. The Promissory Notes had a combined initial aggregate principal amount of $95.2 million and provided for additional borrowings during the term of the Promissory Notes for additional amounts not to exceed approximately $52.5 million in the aggregate (approximately $147.7 million including the initial aggregate principal amount). Interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance of the Promissory Notes at a rate per annum equal to 3%; provided; that with respect to any day during the period from the date of the Promissory Notes through December 31, 2019, interest was calculated assuming that the unpaid principal balance of the Promissory Notes on such day is the unpaid principal amount of the notes on the last calendar day of the quarter in which such day occurs. Interest was payable upon the maturity date of the notes. Each of the Promissory Notes had an initial maturity date of March 30, 2020, and was extended through March 30, 2021 by amendments entered into effective as of March 30, 2020.

On February 8, 2021, the Company received $120.6 million from Appgate. Approximately $117.1 million and $1.1 million were designated as repayment of the full balance of the $154.3 million outstanding principal and accrued interest, respectively, on the Promissory Notes at that time. On the same date, the Company issued a payoff letter to Appgate extinguishing the remaining unpaid balance of the Promissory Notes.

Recent Developments

On January 31, 2022, Cyxtera issued a total of 7.5 million Optional Shares at a price of $10.00 per share, for aggregate consideration of $75.0 million to SIS and the Forward Purchasers pursuant to the Optional Share Purchase Agreement.

In December 2021, the Company announced that it would redeem all of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants that remained outstanding as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 19, 2022. On January 26, 2022, the Company announced that it had completed the redemption of all of its outstanding warrants that were issued under the Warrant Agreement and that remained outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 19, 2022. Upon completion of the redemption, the Public Warrants ceased trading on the Nasdaq and were deregistered, to the extent unsold.

Factors Affecting Cyxtera’s Business

The Business Combination with Legacy Cyxtera and SVAC

On July 29, 2021, we consummated the Business Combination, with Legacy Cyxtera deemed the accounting acquirer. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with US GAAP.

Of the 40,423,453 Public Shares issued in SVAC’s IPO in September 2020, holders of 26,176,891 shares of SVAC’s Class A common stock properly exercised their right to have such shares redeemed for a full pro rata portion of the trust account holding the proceeds from the IPO, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, which was approximately $10.00 per share or $261.8 million in the aggregate. As a result, 14,246,562 shares of Class A common stock remained outstanding leaving $142.5 million in the trust account.

As a result of the Business Combination, 106,100,000 shares of Class A common stock were issued to SIS and 25,000,000 shares of Class A common stock were issued to the PIPE Investors, at a price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate consideration of $250.0 million in the PIPE Investment for purposes of raising additional capital for use by the combined company following the closing of the Business Combination and satisfying one of the conditions to the closing. Additionally, as a result of the Business Combination, 10,526,315 shares of Class A
36


common stock were issued to the Forward Purchasers at a price of $9.50 per share, for aggregate consideration of $100.0 million and 10,105,863 shares of SVAC Class B common stock held by the Sponsor automatically converted into 10,105,863 shares of Class A common stock.

After giving effect to the Transactions, the redemption of Public Shares, the issuance of the forward purchase shares and the consummation of the PIPE Investment, there were 165,978,740 shares of our Class A common stock issued and outstanding as of immediately following the completion of the Business Combination. Our Class A common stock and Public Warrants commenced trading on the Nasdaq under the symbols “CYXT” and “CYXTW,” respectively, on July 30, 2021, subject to ongoing review of our satisfaction of all listing criteria following the Business Combination. As noted above, an aggregate of $261.8 million was paid from SVAC’s trust account to holders that properly exercised their right to have Public Shares redeemed, and the remaining balance of $142.5 million immediately prior to the closing remained in the trust account. After taking into account the funds in the trust account after redemptions, the $250.0 million in gross proceeds from the PIPE Investment and the $100.0 million in gross proceeds from the sale of the forward purchase shares, we received approximately $493.9 million in total cash from the Business Combination, before fees, expenses and debt repayment.

Public Company Costs

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, we became an SEC-registered and Nasdaq-listed company, which required us to hire additional staff and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. We expect to incur substantial additional annual expenses for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees and additional internal and external costs for investor relations, accounting, audit, legal and other functions.

2021 Restructuring and Site Closures

Addison site

In January 2021, we notified the landlord of our office space in Addison, Texas of our intent to sublease the property for the remaining lease term of ten years. We ceased use of and subleased the space during the three months ended March 31, 2021. In connection with this decision, we incurred $7.9 million of expenses, including $5.9 million of accrued lease termination costs and $2.0 million of asset disposals, which is recognized in the results for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Moses Lake site

In February 2021, the Company notified the landlord of the Moses Lake data center facility in the State of Washington of our intent to cease the use of the space. Accordingly, the Company accelerated depreciation and amortization of all assets on the site, including favorable leasehold interest amortization, which resulted in additional depreciation and amortization of $0.9 million and $1.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, and $0.3 million and $0.6 million additional favorable leasehold interest amortization, recorded in cost of revenues, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The Company ceased use of the property in June 2021 at which time it met the conditions for recording a charge related to the remaining lease obligation of $58.5 million. There is no sublease in place on this property. Furthermore, management believes the ability to sublease the property is remote and as such has not made any assumption for the future cash flows from a potential sublease in making this estimate.

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted Topic 842, and reclassified $53.0 million of the restructuring liability reserve representing lease abandonment liabilities to the ROU asset. As of June 30, 2022, the restructuring liability reserve relates to the ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, liability for Moses Lake, which was in excess of the ROU asset adjustment. The restructuring liability reserve is included in other liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The accretion expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded accretion of $0.1 million, in connection with the exits, recorded in restructuring, impairment, site closures and related costs in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized $1.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively, of restructuring expenses recorded in restructuring, impairment, site closures and related costs in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The restructuring costs were composed of $3.2 million of operating leases costs and $0.3 million of accretion expense, net of $0.9 million of income recognized from the Addison sublease.

Impact of COVID-19

Although there has been an increasing availability and administration of vaccines against COVID-19, as well as an easing of restrictions on social, business, travel and government activities and functions, infection rates and regulations continue to fluctuate in various regions as new variants arise and there are ongoing global impacts resulting from the pandemic, including (1) COVID-19 lockdowns in China and (2) challenges and increases in costs for logistics and supply chains, such as increased port congestion, intermittent supplier delays and a shortfall of semiconductor supply, all of which could be inflated due to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Ultimately, we cannot predict the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Key Operational and Business Metrics

In addition to the Company’s financial results determined in accordance with US GAAP, our management uses the following key operational and business metrics to manage its data center business and to assess the results of operations:

recurring and non-recurring revenues;
bookings; and
churn.

These metrics are important indicators of the overall direction of our business, including trends in sales and the effectiveness of operations and growth initiatives. The following table presents our recurring and nonrecurring revenues from the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and certain operating metrics for each of the periods indicated, which have been derived from the Company’s internal records. These metrics may differ from those used by other companies in our industry who may define these metrics differently.

Revenues: We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into recurring revenues and non-recurring revenues. We derive the majority of our revenues from recurring revenue streams, consisting primarily of colocation service fees, which include fees for the licensing of space and power and interconnection service fees. We consider our colocation service offerings recurring because customers are generally committed to such services under long term contracts, typically three years in length. Our interconnection services are typically on month-to-month contracts but are considered recurring because customers’ use of interconnection services generally remains
38


stable over time. This is because interconnection services facilitate a customer’s full use of the colocation environment or support the business function housed within the customer’s colocation environment by establishing connections between colocation customers within our data center facilities and their preferred network service providers, low latency public cloud on-ramps and a wide range of technology and network service providers and business partners. Our colocation and interconnection service offerings are generally billed monthly and recognized ratably over the term of the contract. Our management reviews monthly recurring revenue by reference to the metric of “MRR,” which is calculated as of the last day of a given month and represents the sum of all service charges for recurring services provided during such month. Our MRR was $54.9 million and $52.9 million as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Our non-recurring revenues are primarily comprised of installation services related to a customer’s initial deployment and professional services we perform. These services are considered to be non-recurring because they are billed typically once, upon completion of the installation or the professional services work performed. The majority of these non-recurring revenues are typically billed on the first invoice distributed to the customer in connection with their initial installation. However, revenues from installation services are deferred and recognized ratably over the period of the contract term in accordance with ASC Topic 606 as discussed in Note 6 of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Bookings: We define Bookings for a given period as the new monthly recurring service fees for colocation and interconnection services committed under service contracts during the relevant period. Bookings are measured for the respective reporting period and represent the monthly service fees – based on the service fees for one month of services – attributable to new service contracts entered into and additional services committed under existing service contracts during the relevant period. Bookings is a key performance measure that management uses to assess the productivity of our sales force and anticipate data center inventory requirements. In addition, our management considers Bookings together with Churn (described below) to anticipate future changes to MRR.

Bookings was calculated for each period presented (i.e., the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021) and represents the new monthly recurring service fees – based on the service fees for one month of services – attributable to new service contracts and additional services committed under existing service contracts during the period presented.
During the three ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the total amount of new monthly recurring service fees for colocation and interconnection services committed under service contracts (i.e., Bookings) totaled $2.4 million and $2.8 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the total amount of new monthly recurring service fees for colocation and interconnection services committed under service contracts (i.e., Bookings) totaled $4.6 million and $5.1 million, respectively.

Churn: We define Churn for a given period as the decrease in MRR during the relevant period attributable to service terminations and reductions. Churn is calculated for the respective reporting period and represents the sum of the total amount of MRR for which a service contract was terminated or reduced during the relevant period, based on the last month’s service charges. Churn is a key performance measure that management uses to assess our customer satisfaction and performance against competition. In addition, our management considers Churn together with Bookings to anticipate future changes to MRR.

As presented in the table above, Churn was calculated for each period presented (i.e., the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021) and represents the sum of the total amount of MRR for which a service contract was terminated or reduced during the period presented.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the total amount of MRR for which a service contract was terminated or reduced (i.e., Churn) totaled $1.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the total amount of MRR for which a service contract was terminated or reduced (i.e., Churn) totaled $2.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Revenues:

We derive the majority of our revenues from recurring revenue streams, consisting primarily of colocation service fees, which include fees for the licensing of space and power, as well as interconnection service fees. We consider our colocation service offerings recurring because our customers are generally committed to such services under long term contracts, typically three years in length. Our interconnection services are typically on month-to-month contracts but are considered recurring because customers’ use of interconnection services generally remains stable over time. This is because interconnection services facilitate the customer’s full use of the colocation environment or support the business function housed within the customer’s colocation environment by establishing connections between colocation customers within our data center facilities and their preferred network service providers, low latency public cloud on-ramps and a wide range of technology and network service providers and business partners. Our colocation and interconnection service offerings are generally billed monthly and recognized ratably over the term of the contract. Our recurring revenues have comprised more than 95% of total revenues for each of the past three years. In addition, during 2021 and 2020, 84% and 77%, respectively, of our Bookings came from existing customers. For purposes of calculating Bookings attributable to existing customers, an existing customer is a customer with an active service contract that executes an order for additional services. Our largest customer accounted for approximately 15% of recurring revenues on average for each of the years ended December 31, 2021, and 2020. Our 50 largest customers accounted for approximately 55% and 57%, respectively, of recurring revenues for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Our interconnection revenues represented approximately 11% of total revenues for both the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

Our non-recurring revenues are primarily composed of installation services related to a customer’s initial deployment, professional services we perform and sale of equipment. Non-recurring installation fees, although generally invoiced in a lump sum upon installation, are deferred and recognized ratably over the contract term. Professional service fees and equipment sales are also generally invoiced in a lump sum upon service delivery and are recognized in the period when the services are provided or the equipment is delivered. As a percentage of total revenues, we expect non-recurring revenues to represent less than 5% of total revenues for the foreseeable future.

Operating Costs and Expenses:

Cost of Revenue, excluding Depreciation and Amortization. The largest components of our cost of revenues are rental payments related to our leased data centers; utility costs, including electricity and bandwidth access; data center employees’ salaries and benefits, including stock-based compensation; repairs and maintenance; supplies and equipment; and security. A majority of our cost of revenues is fixed in nature and is not expected to vary significantly from period to period unless we expand our existing data centers or open or acquire new data centers. However, there are certain costs that are considered more variable in nature, including utilities and supplies that are directly related to growth in our existing and new customer base. Recently, the cost of electricity has generally risen due to macroeconomic natural gas supply and demand constraints, initially beginning with inadequate natural gas reserves in Europe to meet European demand. These supply and demand issues have been further exacerbated by the conflict in the Ukraine. In addition, we expect the cost of utilities, specifically electricity, will generally continue to increase in the future on a cost per-unit or fixed basis and for growth in consumption of electricity by our customers. Furthermore, the cost of electricity is generally higher in the summer months, as compared to other times of the year. Our costs of electricity may also increase as a result of the physical effects of climate change, increased regulations driving alternative electricity generation due to environmental considerations or as a result of our election to use renewable energy sources. To the extent we incur increased utility costs, such increased costs could materially impact our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation for our sales and marketing, executive, finance, human resources, legal and IT functions and administrative personnel, third-party professional services fees, insurance premiums and administrative-related rent expense.

40


Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses are primarily comprised of depreciation and amortization on our property, plant and equipment and amortization related to intangible assets.

Restructuring, Impairment, Site Closures and Related Cost. Restructuring, impairment, site closures and related costs are primarily comprised of costs incurred to dispose of a long-lived asset and includes an impairment charge of the leased asset, related liabilities that may arise as a result of the underlying action (such as severance), contractual obligations and other accruals associated with the site closures. Should we commit to a plan to dispose a long-lived asset before the end of its previously estimated useful life or change its use, estimated cash flows are revised accordingly.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net is primarily comprised of interest incurred under our credit facilities and on finance leases.

Other Income (Expenses), Net. Other income (expenses), net primarily includes the impact of foreign currency gains and losses.

    Change in Fair Value of the Warrant Liabilities. Warrants that were assumed in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination were initially measured at fair value at the Closing Date of the Business Combination and were subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at the end of each reporting period, with changes in estimated fair value of the respective warrant liability recognized as change of fair value of warrant liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. In December 2021, the Company announced that it would redeem all Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants that remained outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 19, 2022. In January 2022, the remaining Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants were either exercised by the holders, or were redeemed by the Company (see Note 12 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q).

Revenues

Revenues increased by $8.7 million, or 5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in revenue is attributable to an increase in recurring revenues due to a net increase in customer installations compared to the same period in the prior year.
41



Operating Costs and Expenses

Cost of Revenues, excluding Depreciation and Amortization

Cost of revenues, excluding depreciation and amortization increased by $2.9 million, or 3%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase in cost of revenues was primarily attributable to the cost of power, causing utilities expenses to increase by $7.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase of expenses were offset by our exit from Moses Lake, completed in the second quarter of 2021, which resulted in a reduction in rent expense of $1.3 million in 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. Customer installation, security services, and rent expense decreased by $2.7 million in the second quarter of 2022 driven by cost management efforts.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $11.8 million, or 52%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. Personnel and related expenses increased by $7.1 million due to an increase in employee headcount, merit increases, and increases in stock-based compensation driven by equity awards granted in the latter half of 2021. Professional services and insurance expenses increased by $4.3 million as a result of the additional costs associated with being a public company compared to the same period in the prior year.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased by $0.3 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to higher depreciation of leasehold improvements and higher finance lease asset amortization from new finance leases that commenced in the latter half of 2021.

Restructuring, Impairment, Site Closures and Related Costs

Restructuring, impairment, site closures and related costs decreased by $57.6 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. In June 2021, the Company ceased use of the Moses Lake property and wrote off the remaining lease obligation of $58.5 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized $1.3 million of restructuring costs in connection with the Addison and Moses Lake exits. As a result of adopting Topic 842 on January 1, 2022, the Company reclassified $53.0 million of restructuring liability reserve to the ROU asset. As a result of the reclassification, the accretion expense decreased by $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net decreased by $4.2 million, or 10%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. We incurred less interest expense period over period as a result of the payoff of the 2017 Second Lien Term Facility and the pay down of the Revolving Facility and 2021 Revolving Facility in July and August 2021 following the consummation of the Business Combination.

Other Expenses, Net

Other expenses, net, increased by $0.3 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in other expenses, net, was driven by the change of foreign currency translation for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Income Tax Benefit

The income tax (benefit) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $(2.0) million and $(12.9) million, respectively. The effective tax rate was different than the amount expected at the statutory federal income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as a result of additional state income tax benefits, an increase in the valuation allowance recorded on certain deferred tax assets that management believes are not more likely than not to be fully realized in future periods, certain nondeductible remuneration to covered employees under Internal Revenue Code section 162(m), nondeductible equity-based compensation, the change in fair value of the warrant liabilities, miscellaneous transfer pricing true-ups for final statutory and/or tax returns in certain foreign jurisdictions, and the recognition of a tax expense related to an effective settlement of the Company’s tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2017 tax year. The effective tax rate was different than the amount expected at the statutory federal income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of additional state income tax benefits, an increase in the valuation allowance recorded on certain deferred tax assets that management believes are not more likely than not to be fully realized in future periods, nondeductible equity-based compensation, and the remeasurement of the Company’s net deferred tax assets in the United Kingdom due to an enacted tax rate change.

Revenues

Revenues increased by $18.2 million, or 5%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in revenue is attributable to an increase in recurring revenues due to a net increase in customer installations, and an increase of approximately $2.1 million in variable recurring revenue recognized compared to the same period in the prior year.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Cost of Revenues, excluding Depreciation and Amortization

Cost of revenues, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased by $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase in cost of revenues was primarily attributable in the cost of power, causing utilities expenses to increase by $11.5 million during six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase of expenses were offset by our exit from Moses Lake, completed in the second quarter of 2021, which resulted in a reduction in rent expense of $3.2 million
43


in 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. Customer installation, customer contract fee, and security cost decreased by $5.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 driven by cost management efforts.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $15.5 million, or 31%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. Personnel and related expenses increased by $9.2 million due to an increase in employee headcount and increases in stock-based compensation driven by equity awards granted in the latter half of 2021. Professional services and insurance expenses increased by $6.3 million as a result of the additional costs associated with being a public company compared to the same period in the prior year.
Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased by $2.0 million, or 2%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to higher depreciation of leasehold improvements and higher finance lease asset amortization from new finance leases that commenced in the latter half of 2021.

Restructuring, Impairment, Site Closures and Related Costs

Restructuring, impairment, site closures and related costs decreased by $64.4 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. In the six months ended June 30, 2021, we exited the Addison office space and incurred $7.9 million in exit expenses. In June 2021, the Company ceased use of the Moses Lake property and wrote off the remaining lease obligation of $58.5 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized $2.6 million of restructuring costs in connection with the Addison and Moses Lake exits.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net, decreased by $8.8 million, or 10%, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. We incurred less interest expense period over period as a result of the payoff of the 2017 Second Lien Term Facility and the pay down of the Revolving Facility and 2021 Revolving Facility in July and August 2021 following the consummation of the Business Combination.

Other Income (Expenses), Net

Other income (expenses), net increased by $1.3 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in other income (expenses) was driven by the change of foreign currency translation for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Change in Fair Value of the Warrant Liabilities

For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a gain of $11.8 million on our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations in connection with the change of the fair value of the warrant liabilities. In December 2021, the Company announced that it would redeem all of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants that remained outstanding as of the Redemption Time. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, prior to the Redemption Time, the warrant holders were permitted to exercise their warrants either (a) on a cash basis by paying the exercise price of $11.50 per warrant in cash or (b) on a “cashless basis,” in which case the holder would receive 0.265 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock per warrant. On January 26, 2022, the Company announced the completion of the redemption. Of the 11,620,383 Public Warrants that were outstanding as of the time of the Business Combination, 134,443 were exercised for cash at an exercise price of $11.50 per share of Class A common stock and 10,115,180 were exercised on a cashless basis in exchange for an aggregate of 2,680,285 shares of Class A common stock, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement, representing approximately 88% of the Public Warrants. In addition, of the 8,576,940 Private Placement Warrants that were outstanding as of the date of the Business Combination, 8,576,940 were exercised on a cashless basis in exchange
44


for an aggregate of 2,272,884 shares of Class A common stock, in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement, representing 100% of the Private Placement Warrants. Total cash proceeds generated from exercises of the warrants were $1.5 million, As of January 25, 2022, the Company had no warrants outstanding. The Company recorded a decrease in the warrant liability of $64.7 million and increase to additional paid in capital of $54.2 million in connection with the warrants that were exercised.

Income Tax Expense and (Benefit)

The income tax expense and (benefit) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $2.1 million and $(25.8) million, respectively. The income tax expense on the pre-tax loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to an incremental valuation allowance recorded due to continued losses in the U.S. and other loss jurisdictions, tax expense recorded in foreign jurisdictions where income is generated, certain permanent book to tax differences, as well as an effective settlement with the tax authorities. The effective tax rate was different than the amount expected at the statutory federal income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as a result of additional state income tax benefits, an increase in the valuation allowance recorded on certain deferred tax assets that management believes are not more likely than not to be fully realized in future periods, certain nondeductible remuneration to covered employees under Internal Revenue Code section 162(m), nondeductible equity-based compensation, the change in fair value of the warrant liabilities, miscellaneous transfer pricing true-ups for final statutory and/or tax returns in certain foreign jurisdictions, and the recognition of a tax expense related to an effective settlement of the Company’s tax examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2017 tax year. The effective tax rate was different than the amount expected at the statutory federal income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of additional state income tax benefits, an increase in the valuation allowance recorded on certain deferred tax assets that management believes are not more likely than not to be fully realized in future periods, nondeductible equity-based compensation, and the remeasurement of the Company’s net deferred tax assets in the United Kingdom due to an enacted tax rate change.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had cash of $39.7 million and $52.4 million, respectively, and had $95.1 million and $88.8 million, respectively, of our revolving credit facilities available. Historically, customer collections are our primary source of cash. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, the cash generated from operations and the borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facilities will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months and the long-term foreseeable future. We intend to continue to make significant investments to support our business growth, which may include pursuing additional expansion opportunities. To the extent that current and anticipated future sources of liquidity are insufficient to fund our future business activities and requirements, we may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. The sale of additional equity would result in additional dilution to our shareholders. The occurrence of debt financing would result in debt service obligations and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital. The inability to raise capital would adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objectives. If current market conditions were to deteriorate, some of our customers may have difficulty paying us and we may experience increased churn in our customer base, including reductions in their commitments to us, and we may be unable to secure additional financing, or any such additional financing may only be available to us on unfavorable terms, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity. Additionally, an inability to pursue additional expansion opportunities will have a material adverse effect on our ability to maintain our desired level of revenue growth in future periods.

Debt

As of June 30, 2022, we had $1,121.3 million and $887.9 million in finance lease obligations and long-term debt outstanding under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, we had $976.3 million and $908.3 million in finance lease obligations and long-term debt outstanding under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities, respectively. Following receipt of $75.0 million in connection with the exercise of the optional shares purchase options, we repaid the entire balance owed under the Revolving Facility and the 2021 Revolving
45


Facility of $40.0 million. The Revolving Facility matured in May 2022 and was not renewed. Subsequent to the paying down of the Revolving Facility and the 2021 Revolving Facility, the Company drew down $20.0 million from the 2021 Revolving Facility.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by our operations is generated by colocation service fees, which includes fees for the licensing of space, power and interconnection services.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, operating activities provided $11.7 million of net cash as compared to $6.3 million during the same period in the prior year. On February 19, 2021, we repaid $22.7 million of fees related to the Structuring Fee, Service Provider Fee and other Sponsor related expenses that were owed under the Services Agreement as described in Note 18 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Furthermore, there was no such payment that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2022. This cash savings was offset by a decrease in collections of $37.9 million in accounts receivable as a result of the practice of factoring receivables. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we factored $77.0 million of receivables and received $76.3 million, net of fees of $0.7 million compared to same period in the current year, where we factored $10.9 million of receivables and received $10.7 million, net of fees of $0.2 million. The remaining change was to other changes in working capital.

Investing Activities

Our investing activities are primarily focused on capital expenditures due to expansion activities and overall modernization of our data centers.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, investing activities used $62.3 million of net cash as compared to net cash provided by $89.0 million during the same period in the prior year. The decrease in net cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, was primarily due to the one-time payment of $117.1 million received from Appgate in February 2021 in settlement of the Promissory Notes and $34.2 million in additional cash used for the purchase of property and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Financing Activities

Our cash flow from financing activities is centered around the use of our credit facilities and lease financings.
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, financing activities provided for use of $39.6 million of net cash as compared to net cash used of $155.9 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in net cash used from financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, was primarily due to the receipt of $75.0 million in proceeds during the period due to the exercise of the optional share purchase options. These cash inflows were partially offset by the paydown of $40.0 million on the Revolving Facility and the 2021 Revolving Facility and a paydown of $2.3 million in principal of the First Lien Term Facility. Since the paydown of the revolving facilities, we re-borrowed $20.0 million from the 2021 Revolving Facility. Repayments on finance leases were lower in the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the same period in the prior year by $11.8 million, which was a result of finance leases that converted to the operating lease
46


classification, effective January 1, 2022. In the current period, we additionally received $10.0 million in proceeds from an equipment sale-leaseback transaction, compared to $2.4 million in the same period in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we paid a one-time capital redemption payment of $97.9 million when we redeemed, cancelled and retired 9,645,455 shares of the Class A Common Stock of Legacy Cyxtera held by SIS in exchange for such payment by Legacy Cyxtera to SIS.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Material Cash Commitments

As of June 30, 2022, our principal commitments were primarily comprised of:

approximately $887.9 million of principal from the 2017 and 2019 First Lien Term Facility and balance on the 2021 Revolving Facility (net of debt issuance cost and debt discount);
approximately $1,439.9 million of total lease payments, net interest expense, which represents lease payments under finance and operating lease arrangements, including renewal options that are reasonably certain to be exercised; and
approximately $3.0 million of other non-capital purchase commitments related to IT licenses, utilities and our colocation operations. These commitments to purchase IT contractually bind us for goods, services or arrangements to be delivered or provided during 2022 and beyond.

We believe that our sources of liquidity, including our expected future operating cash flows, are sized to adequately meet both our near and long-term material cash commitments for the foreseeable future. For further information on maturities of lease liabilities and long-term debt, see Notes 10 and 11, respectively, to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Other Contractual Obligations

Additionally, we entered into lease agreements with various landlords primarily for data center spaces which have not yet commenced as of June 30, 2022. For additional information, see “Maturities of Lease Liabilities” in Note 10 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We entered into an agreement for power redundancy supply at a facility in Massachusetts, which has not yet commenced as of June 30, 2022. For additional information, see “Lease Commitments” in Note 16 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses at the date of the financial statements. Generally, we base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions in accordance with US GAAP that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe that there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates described in our “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as noted below.

Leases

A significant portion of our data center spaces, office spaces and equipment are leased. Each time we enter into a new lease or lease amendments, we analyze each lease or lease amendment for the proper accounting, including determining if the arrangement is or contains a lease at inception and making assessment of the leased properties to determine if they are operating or finance leases. Determination of accounting treatment, including the result of the lease classification test for each new lease or lease amendment, is dependent on a variety of judgements, such as identification of lease and non-lease components, determination of lease term, including assessing the likelihood of lease renewals, valuation of leased property and establishing incremental borrowing rate to calculate the present value of the minimum lease payment for the lease test. As our lessee leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate estimated based on information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments under each finance lease When determining the incremental borrowing rate, we utilize a market-based approach. The approach requires significant judgment. Therefore, we utilize different data sets to estimate IBRs via an analysis of (i) yields on our outstanding public debt (ii) yields on comparable credit rating composite curves and (iii) yields on comparable market curves.

Warrant Liabilities

In January 2022, the Company completed the redemption of the Public and Private Placement Warrants. As a result, the Company derecognized the $64.7 million of the warrant liabilities and recognized a gain of $11.8 million. See Note 12 in the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the warrants redeemed. As a result of the redemption, we do not believe warrant liabilities is a critical accounting estimate.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

JOBS Act Accounting Election

We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an emerging growth company or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not Applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of
48


achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed so that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on management’s evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2022.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 5. Other Information

On July 29, 2022, SIS Holdings LP distributed 100% of its outstanding shares of Cyxtera’s Class A common stock to its limited partners. Following such distribution, there is no longer a single shareholder or group that owns a majority of Cyxtera’s Class A common stock. As a result, our board of directors intends to present a proposal at our 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to amend our Certificate of Incorporation to revise the voting requirement for our shareholders to adopt, amend, alter or repeal our Amended and Restated By Laws from 66.6% to a majority in voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of our Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.
