We caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all of the forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, including those described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our Risk Factors are not guarantees that no such conditions exist as of the date of this report and should not be interpreted as an affirmative statement that such risks or conditions have not materialized, in whole or in part. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We cannot assure you that the results, events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results, events or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.
Neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. Moreover, the forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may make.
In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements 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.

1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of Business
Blend Labs, Inc. (the “Company,” “Blend,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) was incorporated on April 17, 2012. The Company offers a cloud-based software platform for financial services firms that is designed to power the end-to-end consumer journey for banking products. The Company’s solutions make the journey from application to close fast, simple, and transparent for consumers, while helping financial services firms increase productivity, deepen customer relationships, and deliver exceptional consumer experiences.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of redeemable noncontrolling interest, Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock” or “Series A Preferred Stock”), and stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, and the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 reflect all adjustments that are of a normal, recurring nature and that are considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods shown in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting periods. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted that would ordinarily be required under U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Blend Labs, Inc. and its subsidiaries in which the Company holds a controlling financial interest. Noncontrolling interest represents the minority stockholder’s share of the net income or loss and equity in a consolidated subsidiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make, on an ongoing basis, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, estimates of variable consideration, evaluation of contingencies, determination of the incremental borrowing rates used in calculations of lease liabilities, determination of fair values of stock-based compensation, marketable securities, determination of the fair value of each of the Series A Preferred Stock and the Warrant, determination of fair values of assets transferred and performance obligations committed to under the strategic partnership agreement, assessment of expected credit losses on notes receivable, valuation of deferred tax assets, valuation of acquired intangible assets, valuation of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, determination of useful lives of tangible and intangible assets and capitalized internal-use software development costs, assessment of impairment of long-lived assets, and valuation of equity securities without readily determinable fair value.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company has been and may continue to be affected by various macroeconomic factors, including interest rate environment, housing affordability, and worldwide political and economic conditions. The global financial markets have recently experienced extreme volatility and disruptions, including diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, rising interest rates, inflation, increases in unemployment rates and uncertainty about economic stability. The real estate environment, including interest rates and the general economic environment, typically impacts the demand for mortgage and mortgage related products. Recent changes in these areas have impacted the Company’s results of operations. Recent increases in interest rates due to efforts by the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Federal Reserve”) to manage rising inflation, combined with ongoing supply constraints, resulted in a decline in mortgage origination activity for 2022 and 2023. The demand for mortgage and mortgage related products continued to be sensitive to these factors, and any material changes in Federal Reserve policy, interest rates or housing supply are expected to impact overall origination activity levels

during 2024.
The Company’s operations are principally funded by available liquidity from cash, cash equivalents and investments. The Company has incurred net losses in each period since inception, and its limited operating history in an evolving industry makes it difficult to accurately forecast the impact of macroeconomic or other external factors on its business and may increase the risk that the Company may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability in the future, or otherwise suffers adverse impacts on its operational and financial results.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no significant changes to these policies during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, with the exception of the policy related to the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock as described below.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company places its cash with high credit quality and federally insured institutions. Cash with any one institution may be in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes the exposure to credit risk is not significant. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash, money market accounts, and highly liquid investments with original maturities less than 90 days. The carrying amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the investments.
Restricted Cash
The Company has classified cash that is not available for use in its operations as restricted cash. Restricted cash consists primarily of collateral for letters of credit related to security deposits for the Company’s office facility lease arrangements and collateral for surety bonds related to the Title segment. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had restricted cash of $7.3 million, all of which was classified as non-current.
Trade and Other Receivables and Credit Loss Reserves
The Company reports trade and other receivables net of the allowance for credit losses, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses. ASC 326 requires an entity to recognize an allowance that reflects the entity’s current estimate of credit losses expected to be incurred over the life of the financial instrument. The Company’s estimate of expected credit losses is determined based on expected lifetime loss rates calculated from historical data and adjusted for the impact of current and future conditions, such as the age of outstanding receivables, historical payment patterns, any known or expected changes to the customers’ ability to fulfill their payment obligations, or assessment of broader economic conditions that may impact the customers’ ability to pay the outstanding balances. As of each of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the reserve for expected credit losses was $0.1 million. The provision for expected credit losses and the uncollectible portion of the receivables written off against reserve for expected credit losses were not material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
Capitalized Internal-Use Software
The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred in the development of its platform and product offerings when (i) the preliminary project stage is completed, (ii) management has authorized further funding for the completion of the project, and (iii) it is probable that the project will be completed and performed as intended. These capitalized costs include personnel and related expenses and stock-based compensation for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to internal-use software projects. Capitalization of these costs ceases once the project is substantially complete and the software is ready for its intended purpose. Costs incurred for significant upgrades and enhancements to the existing software are also capitalized, while the costs incurred for minor modifications, as well as training and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The capitalized internal-use software development costs are reported in property and equipment, net, in the condensed consolidated
Blend Labs, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
balance sheets. Capitalized internal-use software development costs are amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of the software, as the straight-line recognition method best approximates the manner in which the expected benefit will be derived. The Company does not transfer ownership of its software, license, or lease the software to third parties.
Concentrations of Credit Risk and Significant Customers
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities, and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash equivalents primarily in money market funds and highly liquid investments that are issued or guaranteed by the United States government or its agencies. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents was $55.0 million and $31.0 million, respectively, and included $2.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively, of cash held in a foreign jurisdiction. Collateral is not required for trade accounts receivable.
Title365 has agreements with insurance underwriters authorizing the Company to issue title insurance policies on behalf of the insurance underwriters. The policies are underwritten by two title insurance companies, which accounted for approximately 61% and 39% during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 70% and 30% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, of title policy fees earned during the period.
The following customer comprised 10% or more of the Company’s revenue for the following periods:

C | | 11% | | N/A1 |
(1) trade and unbilled receivable balance from this customer did not exceed 10% as of the date presented |
|
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
The Company’s 90.1% ownership of Title365 results in recognition of 9.9% noncontrolling interest, which represents the minority stockholder’s share of the net income and equity in Title365. The Title365 stockholders agreement includes a provision whereby the Company has a call option to purchase the 9.9% noncontrolling interest at a purchase price equal to the greater of (1) $49.5 million plus an amount of interest calculated using an interest rate of 5.0% per annum compounding annually; or (2) 4.4 multiplied by the trailing 12-month EBITDA multiplied by the noncontrolling interest ownership percentage (the “Title365 Call Option”). The Title365 Call Option became exercisable beginning 2 years following the acquisition closing date. The noncontrolling interest holder also holds an option to compel the Company to purchase the remaining 9.9% noncontrolling interest at a price calculated in the same manner as the Title365 Call Option (the “Title365 Put Option”). The Title365 Put Option is exercisable beginning 5 years following the acquisition closing date. Neither the Title365 Call Option nor the Title365 Put Option have an expiration date. However, pursuant to the Title365 stockholders agreement, the Company also has certain bring-along rights that it can exercise under certain circumstances, which may result in the Title365 Put Option being extinguished. As the Title365 Put Option is not solely within the Company’s control, the Company classified this interest as redeemable noncontrolling interest (“RNCI”) within the mezzanine equity section of the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The RNCI is accreted to the redemption value under the interest method from the acquisition date through the date the Title365 Put Option becomes exercisable. At each balance sheet date, the RNCI is reported at the greater of the initial carrying amount adjusted for the RNCI's share of earnings or losses and other comprehensive income or loss, or its accreted redemption value. The changes in the redemption amount are recorded with corresponding adjustments against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in-capital. For each reporting period, the entire periodic
Blend Labs, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
change in the redemption amount is reflected in the computation of net loss per share under the two-class method as being akin to a dividend. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the redemption amount of the Title365 Put Option as if it was currently redeemable was $58.0 million and $55.9 million, respectively.
Series A Preferred Stock
On April 29, 2024, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Haveli Brooks Aggregator, L.P. (“Haveli”) and issued 150,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock is classified as mezzanine equity due to the redemption features that are not solely within the Company’s control. The Series A Preferred Stock is accreted to its maximum redemption value over the seven year term, using the effective interest method. The increases in the redemption amount are recorded with corresponding adjustments against additional paid-in capital, in the absence of retained earnings. For each reporting period, the entire periodic change in the redemption amount is reflected in the computation of net loss per share under the two-class method as being akin to a dividend, by reducing the income (or increasing the loss) attributable to common stockholders.
JOBS Act Accounting Election
As an emerging growth company (“EGC”), the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”) allows the Company to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are applicable to private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). The Company intends to use this extended transition period under the JOBS Act until such time as the Company is no longer considered to be an EGC. The adoption dates discussed below reflect this election.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The guidance simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20 that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock. The guidance is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2024. ASU 2020-06 should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis and early adoption is permitted. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820). This update clarifies the guidance in Topic 820 when measuring the fair value of an equity security subject to contractual restrictions that prohibit the sale of an equity security and introduces new disclosure requirements for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820. The amendments affect all entities that have investments in equity securities measured at fair value that are subject to a contractual sale restriction. The guidance is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning January 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). This update improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, for all public entities to enable investors to develop more decision-useful financial analyses. The guidance is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740). This update improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (2) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The guidance is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or

made available for issuance. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This update improves the disclosures about a public entity’s expenses, primarily through additional disclosures of specific information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to financial statements. The guidance is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Contract Balances
The following table provides information about contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Contract Accounts | | Balance Sheet Line Reference | | September 30, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 |

Contract liabilities—current | | Deferred revenue, current | | $ | (19,857) | | | $ | (8,984) | |
There were no long-term contract assets or deferred revenue as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
During the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $8.6 million and $5.6 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balances at the beginning of the respective periods. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $6.7 million and $7.7 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balances at the beginning of the respective periods.
Blend Labs, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recognized revenue of approximately $1.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively, related to performance obligations satisfied in previous periods. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized revenue of approximately $0.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively, related to performance obligations satisfied in previous periods. The revenue reduced or recognized from performance obligations satisfied in the prior periods primarily related to changes in the transaction price, including changes in the estimate of variable consideration.
Remaining Performance Obligations
As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations was $107.4 million. These remaining performance obligations represent commitments in customer contracts for services expected to be provided in the future that have not been recognized as revenue. The expected timing of revenue recognition for these commitments is largely driven by the Company’s ability to deliver in accordance with relevant contract terms and when the Company’s customers utilize services, which could affect the Company’s estimate of when the Company expects to recognize revenue for these remaining performance obligations. The Company expects to recognize approximately half of the remaining performance obligations as revenue over the next 12 months. The Company expects the majority of non-current remaining performance obligations to be recognized over the next 13 to 24 months.

Restricted cash that is not available for use in operations consisted of $5.0 million collateral for standby letters of credit related to the Company’s office lease facilities, $1.9 million collateral for surety bonds related to the Title segment and $0.3 million statutory deposits required under the California insurance code as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Marketable securities consist primarily of U.S. treasury and agency securities, commercial paper, and corporate debt securities. The Company classifies its marketable securities as available-for-sale securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such classification at each balance sheet date. The Company has classified its investments as current based on the nature of the investments and their availability for use in current operations.
The fair value of the Company’s investments in money market funds classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy is based on real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets. The fair value of the Company’s investments in commercial paper and marketable securities classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy is based on quoted market prices for similar instruments. The Company’s certificates of deposit are short-term in nature and are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value; as such, the certificates of deposit are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The following table summarizes the stated maturities of the Company’s marketable securities and other investments:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| September 30, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 | |
| (In thousands) | |
Due within one year | $ | 38,365 | | | $ | 66,620 | | |
Due after one year through two years | 23,379 | | | 39,340 | | |
Total marketable securities and other investments | $ | 61,744 | | | $ | 105,960 | | |
The Company evaluates marketable securities in unrealized loss positions to determine whether the impairment is due to credit-related factors or other factors. The Company considers the extent to which the fair value is less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the security issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
The Company does not have an intent to sell any of these securities prior to maturity and believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date. Accordingly, the Company believes that generally the unrealized losses are due to noncredit-related factors, including changes in interest rates and other market conditions, and therefore no impairment charges or allowance for credit losses have been recognized in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the number of investment positions that are in an unrealized loss position were 0 and 28, respectively. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had no securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or greater. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had four securities, with an aggregate fair value of $16.0 million, that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for twelve months or greater. The Company determines realized gains or losses on the sale of marketable securities based on a specific identification method.
The Company recognized interest income from its investment portfolio of $1.5 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and $4.2 million and $8.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Accrued interest receivable related to marketable securities was $0.3 million and $0.9 million, as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and is presented within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not measure an allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivable and recognizes interest receivable write offs as a reversal of interest income. No accrued interest was written off during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
