The words "believe," "may," "will," "potentially," "plan," "could," "should," "predict," "ongoing," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "project," "expect," "seek," or the negative of these words, or terms or similar expressions conveying uncertainty of future events or outcomes, or that concern our expectations, strategy, plans or intentions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, anticipated, or expected. When considering forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" and in our publicly available filings and press releases.

as well as other statements regarding our future operations, financial condition, growth prospects and business strategies.
We operate in very competitive and rapidly-changing environments, and new risks emerge from time-to-time. It is not possible for us to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this Quarterly Report may not occur, and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those implied in our forward-looking statements.
You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee the future results, levels of activity, performance or events and circumstances described in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. Neither we, nor any other person, assume responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this Quarterly Report to conform such statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.
Unless expressly indicated or the context suggests otherwise, references to "GoDaddy," "company," "we," "us" and "our" refer to GoDaddy Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Desert Newco, LLC and its subsidiaries (Desert Newco).

GoDaddy Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
(In millions, except shares in thousands and per share amounts)
1.    Organization and Background
Organization
We are the sole managing member of Desert Newco, LLC (Desert Newco), and as a result, we consolidate its financial results into the results and financial position of the Company. As of June 30, 2024, we owned 100% of Desert Newco.
On December 11, 2023, we completed a series of transactions (the DNC Restructure) designed to simplify our then existing capital structure, commonly referred to as an "Up-C" structure, and provide us with additional strategic flexibility. Completion of these transactions resulted in Desert Newco becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of GoDaddy Inc. Pursuant to the DNC Restructure, all Limited Liability Company Units of Desert Newco not held by us or our subsidiaries were cancelled and converted into newly issued shares of our Class A common stock. Subsequent to the DNC Restructure, on January 1, 2024, Desert Newco was converted from a partnership to a disregarded entity and as a result we are now treated as a consolidated C corporation group for U.S. income tax purposes.
Basis of Presentation
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and include our accounts and the accounts of our subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Our interim financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent period or for the year ending December 31, 2024.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the 2023 Form 10-K).
Prior Period Presentation
Certain immaterial prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
7
Use of Estimates
GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions affecting amounts reported in our financial statements. We periodically evaluate our estimates and adjust prospectively, if necessary. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable; however, actual results may differ.
Segments
We report our operating results through two reportable segments: Applications and Commerce (A&C) and Core Platform (Core), as further discussed in Note 16.
2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment, net by geography was as follows:

$1,124.5 $1,048.1 $2,233.0 $2,084.1 
No single international country represented more than 10% of total revenue in any period presented.
See Note 7 for information regarding our deferred revenue.
Assets Recognized from Contract Costs
Fees paid to various registries at the inception of a domain registration or renewal represent costs to fulfill a contract. We capitalize and amortize these prepaid domain name registry fees to cost of revenue consistent with the pattern of transfer of the product to which the asset relates. Amortization expense of such assets was $195.8 million and $192.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and was $389.6 million and $377.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Restructuring and Other
Restructuring and other primarily represents: (i) charges related to restructuring activities undertaken to reduce future operating expenses and improve cash flows through a combination of reductions in force during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 and the sale of certain assets and liabilities of our hosting business within our Core segment during the six months ended June 30, 2023; (ii) charges incurred related to the abandonment of right-of-use assets associated with certain operating leases during the six months ended June 30, 2024; and (iii) a charge related to the termination of a revenue sharing arrangement during the three months ended June 30, 2023. See Note 13 for further discussion.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. The framework for measuring fair value provides a three-tier hierarchy prioritizing inputs to valuation techniques used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1— Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
Level 2— Inputs, other than quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets, which are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3— Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data requiring the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
We hold certain assets required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These include time deposits and notice deposits, which we classify within Level 1 because we use quoted market prices to determine their fair value. Level 2 assets and liabilities include commercial paper and derivative financial instruments associated with hedging activity, as further discussed in Note 10. Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value on the contract date and are subsequently remeasured each reporting period using inputs such as spot rates, discount rates and forward rates. There are no active markets for the hedge contracts themselves; however, the inputs used to calculate the fair value of the instruments are tied to active markets.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Standards Accounting Board (FASB) issued guidance to update reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance. This update is effective for the 2024 fiscal year and interim periods in fiscal year 2025, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this guidance require additional disclosures about income taxes, primarily focused on the disclosure of income taxes paid and the rate reconciliation table. The new guidance will be effective for the 2025 fiscal year, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our disclosures within our consolidated financial statements.

4.    Stockholders' Equity
Share Repurchases
Our board of directors has authorized a share repurchase program of up to $4,000.0 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased a total of 3,303 shares of our Class A common stock in the open market, which were retired upon repurchase, for an aggregate purchase price of $404.2 million. As of June 30, 2024, we had $1,031.3 million of remaining authorization available for repurchases.
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we entered into accelerated repurchase agreements (ASRs) to repurchase shares of our Class A common stock in exchange for an upfront payment of $245.0 million. No shares were initially received in connection with these ASRs. The total number of shares ultimately delivered under each ASR, and therefore the average purchase price paid per share, will be determined based on the volume weighted-average price of our stock during the applicable purchase period. The shares received will be retired at the time of delivery and the upfront payment was accounted for as an increase in accumulated deficit. The ASRs are forward contracts indexed to our Class A common stock and met all of the applicable criteria for equity classification; therefore, the ASRs were not accounted for as derivative instruments. The ASRs are expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2024.

6.    Equity-Based Compensation Plans
Equity Plans
At our Annual Meeting of Stockholders on June 6, 2024 (the Annual Meeting), our stockholders approved the adoption of the GoDaddy Inc. 2024 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the 2024 Plan), which will replace our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan on a prospective basis. Under the 2024 Plan, we may grant shares of our Class A common stock in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards, performance stock units and other stock- and cash-based awards. 9,085 shares of Class A common stock were initially reserved for issuance under the 2024 Plan. If any award granted under the 2024 Plan or the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan expires or is canceled, forfeited, or otherwise settled without the issuance of Class A common stock, the Class A common stock covered by such award will return to the pool of reserved shares for issuance and will be available for subsequent grants under the terms of the 2024 Plan.
At the Annual Meeting, our stockholders also approved the adoption of the GoDaddy Inc. 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the 2024 ESPP), which will replace the 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan with the first offering period commencing in November 2024 upon the completion of the then in effect offering period under the 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, with any subsequent offering periods being administered under the 2024 ESPP for as long as it is in effect. Under the 2024 ESPP, 4,605 shares of our Class A common stock are reserved for issuance. The 2024 ESPP enables eligible employees to purchase our Class A common stock at a price per share equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of our Class A common stock on the first trading day of the offering period or the last trading day of the offering period, whichever is lower.
Equity Plan Activity
We have granted stock options at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of our Class A common stock on the grant date as well as granted both stock options and restricted stock awards (RSUs) vesting solely upon the continued service of the recipient. Performance-based awards (PSUs) vest based on our relative total stockholder return (TSR) as compared to an index of public internet companies.
