RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below before making an investment decision. Our business, prospects, financial condition, or operating results could be harmed by any of these risks, as well as other risks not known to us or that we consider immaterial as of the date of this prospectus.

Risks Related to Cellebrite’s Business and Industry

If we do not continue to develop technologically advanced solutions and successfully integrate with the software solutions used by our customers, our future revenue and operating results may be negatively affected.

Cellebrite offers a comprehensive DI platform that includes a variety of solutions designed to help law enforcement collect, review, analyze and manage investigative data. We specialize in collecting, decoding, decrypting and analyzing digital devices and sources from a variety of OEMs as well as the applications installed on such sources. Because OEMs and other software manufacturers are continuously changing their products, our success depends on our ability to design and develop new solutions and upgrades to our existing software that keep up with these changes. For example, we are developing new products to assist our customers with consent-based remote collection capabilities and currently plan to introduce these products in 2021. However, there can be no assurance that we are able to design and develop adequate solutions and upgrades that will be compatible with products from OEMs and other software manufacturers. If we are unable to update our software to keep up with the evolving security and encryption strategies in the industry, the utility of our solutions may decrease over time if it becomes unable to extract data from certain digital devices and our software may be vulnerable to malicious attacks. As a result, our reputation might be harmed and our operating results may be negatively affected. For example, while we aim to maintain adequate research and development personnel and resources to meet the demands of the market, Cellebrite’s Ffmpeg DLL software bundles have not been updated since 2012 and therefore may be vulnerable to security threats.

If we experience high turnover of our product and development personnel, a lack of managerial resources to guide our research and development, or a lack of other research and development resources, we may miss or fail to execute on new product development and strategic opportunities and consequently lose potential and actual market share. The success of our business is dependent on our product and development teams developing and executing on a product roadmap that allows us to retain and increase the spending of our existing customers and attract new customers. We believe we offer high-quality solutions with features not offered by competitors selling at a lower price point, and so a failure to continue offering the same caliber of solutions will adversely affect revenue and operating results.

We are materially dependent on acceptance of our solutions by law enforcement markets and government agencies, both domestic and international. If law enforcement and other government agencies do not continue to purchase, accept and use our solutions, our revenue will be adversely affected.

Sales to law enforcement agencies accounted for approximately 90% of our revenue in 2018, 2019 and 2020. At any point, due to external factors and opinions, whether or not related to product performance, law enforcement agencies may elect to no longer purchase our solutions. The key dynamics and trends affecting the digital investigations and intelligence market include: (i) the explosive growth in the volume of data production and availability, (ii) the increases in data complexity, (iii) the lack of digital forensic professionals, (iv) constraints in resources in the public sector, (v) the growing frequency, sophistication and business impact of cybercrimes in the private sector, (vi) the growing risk of insider threats and employee misconduct in private enterprises and (vii) the substantial increase in the remote workforce. For example, while we have not yet had any government clients cancel contracts due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the outbreak may adversely impact the operating budgets of local governments, which may reduce the budget for law enforcement and corrections. In addition, although we have experienced no negative impact on our revenue from the recent changes in public sentiment around police funding, such as the “Defund the Police” movement, these changes may impact our revenue in the future. Revenue growth may be impacted by changes in organizational structure leading to complex decision-making processes within the public sector or by a reduction in the pace of adoption of investigation and justice acceleration related technologies.

Real or perceived errors, failures, defects or bugs in our DI solutions could adversely affect our results of operations, growth prospects and reputation.

Because we offer a complex platform, undetected errors, defects, failures or bugs may occur, especially when solutions or capabilities are first introduced or when new versions or other product or infrastructure updates are released. Despite frequent testing by us and regular software updates, errors, failures, or bugs may not be found in new software or releases until after they are implemented, and this could adversely affect our reputation and our customers’ willingness to buy solutions from us, and adversely affect market acceptance or perception of our solutions.

Many of our customers, especially those in law enforcement, use our solutions in applications that are of public interest or critical to their businesses or missions and may thus have a lower risk tolerance to defects in our solutions than to defects in other, less critical, software solutions. Errors or delays in releasing software updates or allegations of unsatisfactory performance or errors, defects or failures in released software could cause us, in the long run, to lose sales opportunities, increase our service costs, incur substantial software redesigning costs, lose customers or subject us to liability for damages and divert our resources from other tasks, any one of which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, our solutions could be perceived as ineffective for reasons outside of our control.

An error, failure or bug in any of our solutions by our law enforcement customers could lead to interference with the administration of justice, for example by corrupting digital evidence. Real or perceived errors, failures, or bugs in our solutions, or dissatisfaction with our solutions and outcomes, could result in customer terminations. In such an event, we may be required, or we may choose, for customer relations or other reasons, to expend additional resources in order to help correct any such errors, failures, or bugs.

A failure to maintain sales and marketing personnel productivity or hire, integrate and retain additional sales and marketing personnel could adversely affect our results of operations and growth prospects.

Our business requires intensive sales and marketing activities. Part of our strategy is to attract a larger number of large law enforcement customers to use more of our solutions. Our sales and marketing personnel are essential to this effort and to attracting new customers and expanding sales to existing customers generally. We require personnel with expertise in government contracting at both the federal and local level in a variety of countries, and expertise in the private market, and with sufficient technical literacy to discuss our solutions’ features. There is a limited number of individuals with this experience and competition for them is intense. Furthermore, once hired it takes at least three months before a new sales force member is fully trained and operating at a level that meets our expectations, and during the COVID-19 pandemic such training may take even longer. We invest significant time and resources in training new members of our sales force, and we may be unable to achieve our target performance levels with new sales personnel as rapidly as we have done in the past, or at all, due to larger numbers of hires or lack of experience training sales personnel to operate in new jurisdictions or because of the remote hiring and training process. Our failure to hire a sufficient number of qualified individuals, to integrate new sales force members within the time periods we have achieved historically, and to contain sales force attrition rates may materially impact the growth of our business.

The global COVID-19 pandemic could negatively impact our business, installations, trainings, and general operations.

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus and the COVID-19 disease that it causes has evolved into a global pandemic. In light of the uncertain and rapidly evolving situation relating to the spread of COVID-19, we have taken precautionary measures intended to minimize the risk of the virus to our employees, our customers, and the communities in which we operate, including temporarily limiting in-person customer training events, which may negatively impact our business.

While the COVID-19 pandemic to date has not had any noticeable impact on our contract renewal rate, it is possible that it will in the future. Many of our customers are government agencies, and their budgets may have been and may continue to be stretched thin due to the efforts taken to combat the pandemic. If some of our government customers experience budget shortfalls, they may decide to forgo using our platform.

Further, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused and may continue to cause delays in onboarding new customers. In certain countries, customers have had issues accessing their systems remotely in order to generate purchase orders, and this has led to some processing delays. While none of these delays has been significant, they may become significant in the future or transition from delays to outright cancellation. Further, some on-premise POCs of our solutions may be postponed or cancelled due to COVID-19 which may delay the closing of sales transactions with certain customers.

Additionally, a significant portion of our training activities are usually in person. In the normal course of business, our on-premises training staff teach in physical classrooms either at the customers’ facilities or in facilities rented by us. Currently, due to travel restriction and personal distance requirements, the Company offers its classes either in a remote format or on-premises. Also, in the normal course of business, our on-the-ground on-premises deployment staff travel to our customers’ workplaces to demonstrate how to use our solutions. Currently, however, as a result of the work and travel restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the precautionary measures that we have adopted or that local governments prescribe, substantially all of our training activities are being conducted remotely. The remote offering of our services could lead to a decrease in efficacy or value, potentially making our solutions less appealing.

Furthermore, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, our employees are currently required to work from the office three times a week and work remotely the remaining two days a week. It is possible that widespread remote work arrangements may have a negative impact on our operations, the execution of our business plans, the productivity and availability of key personnel and other employees necessary to conduct our business, and on third-party service providers who perform critical services for us, or otherwise cause operational failures due to changes in our normal business practices necessitated by the outbreak and related governmental actions. If a natural disaster, power outage, connectivity issue, or other event occurred that impacted our employees’ ability to work remotely, it may be difficult or, in certain cases, impossible, for us to continue our business for a substantial period of time. The increase in remote working may also result in increased consumer privacy, data security, and fraud risks, and our understanding of applicable legal and regulatory requirements, as well as the latest guidance from regulatory authorities in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, may be subject to legal or regulatory challenge, particularly as regulatory guidance evolves in response to future developments.

More generally, the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected and may continue to adversely affect economies and financial markets globally, which may lead to a continued economic downturn, which may decrease technology spending generally and could adversely affect demand for our solutions. It is not possible at this time to estimate the full impact that COVID-19 will have on our business, as the impact will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Current and future competitors could have a significant impact on our ability to generate future revenue and profits.

The markets for our solutions are competitive and are subject to rapid technological change and other pressures created by changes in our industry. We face varying levels of competition across our product offerings. We face varying levels of competition depending on our product offerings. Our Collect & Review solutions, including the UFED series and Cellebrite Premium, face significant competition. Our competitors offer products similar to our Collect & Review solution with fewer capabilities but lower price points, and some customers may determine that they prefer these competitors’ products based on cost. Our Analyze and Manage solutions, such as Cellebrite Pathfinder and Commander, currently face relatively limited competition but this could change in the future. Some customers have decided to purchase both our solutions and a competitor’s products for verification purposes, but these customers may later decide to terminate their use of a second product, potentially ours, depending on which of our solutions the customers are purchasing. Competition may increase and intensify in the future as the pace of technological change and adaptation quickens and as additional companies enter our markets, including those competitors who offer solutions similar to ours, but offer it through a different form of delivery. Numerous releases of competitive products have occurred in recent history and are expected to continue in the future. We may not be able to compete effectively with current competitors and potential entrants into our marketplace. We could lose market share if our current or prospective competitors: (i) develop technologies that are perceived to be substantially equivalent or superior to our technologies, (ii) introduce new competitive products or services, (iii) add new functionality to existing products and services, (iv) acquire competitive products and services, (v) reduce prices, or (vi) form strategic alliances or cooperative relationships with other companies. If other businesses were to engage in aggressive pricing policies with respect to competing products, or if the dynamics in our marketplace resulted in increasing bargaining power by the consumers of our solutions, we might need to lower the prices we charge for the solutions we offer. This could result in lower revenue or reduced profit margins, either of which may materially adversely affect our business and operating results.

We face intense competition and could face pricing pressure from, and lose market share to, our competitors, which would adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Many of our current and potential competitors are larger and may have substantially greater resources than we have and expect to have in the future. They may also be able to devote greater resources to the development of their current and future technologies or the promotion of their offerings or offer lower prices. Our current and potential competitors may also establish cooperative or strategic relationships among themselves or with third parties that may further enhance their resources and offerings. Further, it is possible that domestic or foreign companies or governments, some with greater experience in the DI industry or greater financial resources than we possess, will seek to provide solutions or solutions that compete directly or indirectly with ours in the future. Any such foreign competitor, for example, could benefit from subsidies from, or other protective measures by, its home country.

We believe our ability to compete successfully in delivering DI at significantly reduced cost to customers does and will depend on a number of factors, which may change in the future due to increased competition, our ability to meet our customers’ needs and the frequency and availability of our offerings. If we are unable to compete successfully, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

If our solutions are inadvertently or deliberately misused by customers, such customers may achieve sub-optimal results, which could lead to the perception that our solutions are low-quality.

Once purchased, our solutions are operated by our customers, and if our customers do not use the platform correctly or as intended, inadequate performance or outcomes may result. Our solutions are sometimes used by customers with smaller or less sophisticated IT departments, potentially resulting in such platform performing at a lower level than anticipated by the customer. Our customers rely on our solutions to address important business goals and challenges, and so the incorrect or improper use or configuration of our solutions may result in contract terminations or non-renewals, reduced customer payments, negative publicity, or legal claims against us.

Furthermore, if customer personnel are not well trained in the use of our platform, customers may defer the deployment of our platform and solutions, may deploy them in a more limited manner than originally anticipated, or may not deploy them at all. If there is substantial turnover of Cellebrite or customer personnel responsible for procurement and/or use of our platform, our platform may go unused or be adopted less broadly, and our ability to make additional sales may be substantially limited, which could negatively impact our business, results of operations, and growth prospects.

Our reputation and brand are important to our success, and we may not be able to maintain and enhance our reputation and brand, which would adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We believe that our brand and reputation are critical to driving our business. Building our brand will depend largely on our ability to continue to provide top-tier service, including high quality valued solutions, and appropriate price points, which we may not do successfully. Negative reviews or publicity about our solutions, services, deliverables, or customer support, especially on media outlets, could harm our reputation and diminish our ability to make additional sales, which would adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth included in this prospectus may prove to be inaccurate, and even if the market in which we compete achieves the forecasted growth, our business could fail to grow at similar rates, if at all.

Due to the multiple and complex drivers of technological change, and the diversified nature and global scope of the investigative customer base, it is difficult to estimate the size of our market and predict with certainty the rate at which the market for our solutions will grow, if at all. While our market potential estimate was made in good faith and is based on assumptions and underlying estimates we believe to be reasonable, this estimate may not be accurate and the market potential might not materialize. If our estimate of the future size of our addressable market does not materialize, our future growth may be lower than we currently anticipate, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Changes to our packaging and licensing models could adversely affect our ability to attract or retain customers.

As we expand our offerings, we will face additional competition. For example, in the DI market, there are numerous brands and solutions that compete for sales, with competition based upon brand recognition and loyalty, product packaging, quality and innovation, licensing models, price and convenience. Hence, changes in our image, packaging and licensing models that are done for marketing and branding purposes could have a negative impact on our customers’ preference for us, which could adversely affect our ability to attract or retain customers.

If we fail to manage future growth effectively, our business could be harmed.

For the last several years, we have experienced rapid growth. For example, our revenue has grown from $111 million in 2017 to $195 million in 2020, and our headcount has increased from 475 employees as of December 31, 2017 to 819 employees as of June 30, 2021. We operate in a growing market and have experienced, and may continue to experience, significant expansion of our operations. This growth has placed, and may continue to place, a strain on our employees, management systems, operational, financial, and other resources. As we have grown, we have increasingly managed larger and more complex deployments of our solutions with a broader base of government and commercial customers. As we continue to grow, we face challenges of integrating, developing, retaining, and motivating a rapidly growing employee base in various countries around the world. In the event of continued growth of our operations, our operational resources, including our information technology systems, our employee base, or our internal controls and procedures may not be adequate to support our operations and deployments. Managing our growth may require significant expenditures and allocation of valuable management resources, improving our operational, financial, and management processes and systems, and effectively expanding, training, and managing our employee base. If we fail to achieve the necessary level of efficiency in our organization as it grows, our business, financial condition, and results of operations would be harmed. As our organization continues to grow, we may find it increasingly difficult to maintain the benefits of our traditional company culture, including our ability to quickly respond to customers, and avoid a formal corporate structure. This could negatively affect our business performance or ability to hire or retain personnel in the near or long-term.

In addition, our rapid growth may make it difficult to evaluate our future prospects. Our ability to forecast our future results of operations is subject to a number of uncertainties, including our ability to effectively plan for and model future growth. We may encounter risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies with global operations in rapidly changing industries. If we fail to achieve the necessary level of efficiency in our organization as it grows, or if we are not able to accurately forecast future growth, our business, financial condition, and results of operations would be harmed.

Our future growth depends in part on our ability to introduce new solutions and add-ons and our failure to do so may harm business and operating results.

To remain competitive, we must continue to develop new product offerings, as well as features and enhancements to our existing platform. For example, we are developing new solutions to assist our customers with consent-based remote collection capabilities and currently plan to introduce this product in 2021. Maintaining adequate research and development personnel and resources to meet the demands of the market is essential. If we experience high turnover of our product and development personnel, a lack of management ability to guide our research and development, or a lack of other research and development resources, we may miss or fail to execute on new product development and strategic opportunities and consequently lose potential and actual market share. The success of our business is dependent on our product and development teams developing and executing on a product roadmap that allows us to retain and increase the spending of our existing customers and attract new customers. Our failure to do so could materially adversely affect our business.

We do not generally engage in e-commerce, which may result in the purchase process being more difficult for customers compared to other businesses.

We do not generally sell our core solutions over the Internet. While customers can initiate contact with us using our website, the ultimate purchase is not made through our website and is made only after an interactive discussion of the customer’s needs and, for customers in the private sector considering purchasing Cellebrite Premium, completion of appropriate “know your customer” procedures by us. As a result, the purchase process can be lengthy compared to many e-commerce transactions, and it is possible that the length of the process may discourage some customers from completing the transaction with us rather than a competitor which offers online sales.

We engage in e-commerce for purchasing vouchers for our solutions, software renewals, and training. Our vouchers can be purchased online, but they may only be used by customers who have a valid license to use our solutions, meaning that some interaction with us is generally required in order for the vouchers to be used. Our existing customers can renew their software online and action for Cellebrite’s Advanced Services can be purchased by existing customers on the Internet. Customer training can be purchased online by existing customers and potential customers. See risk factor titled “The sales cycle for some of our solutions can be lengthy.”

Issues in the use of artificial intelligence (“AI”) (including machine learning) in our platform may result in reputational harm or liability.

AI is enabled by or integrated into our platform. For example, our Cellebrite Pathfinder solution, our principal investigative analytics tool, uses AI to allow customers to create unique search categories for reviewing video and image evidence. As with many developing technologies, AI presents risks and challenges that could affect its further development, adoption, and use, and therefore our business. AI algorithms may be flawed and may present risks due to a lack of backtesting. Datasets may be insufficient, of poor quality, or contain biased information. Inappropriate or controversial data practices by data scientists, engineers, and end-users of our systems could impair the acceptance of AI solutions. If the recommendations, forecasts, or analyses that AI applications assist in producing are deficient or inaccurate, we could be subjected to competitive harm, potential legal liability, and brand or reputational harm. Some AI scenarios present ethical issues, for example, due to unintentional basis that may stem from the predictive nature of AI algorithms. Though our business practices are designed to mitigate many of these risks, if we enable or offer AI solutions that are controversial because of their purported or real impact on human rights, privacy, employment, or other social issues, we may experience brand or reputational harm.

We may require additional capital to support the growth of our business, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

We might require substantial additional project financing in order to meet our financial projections, execute our growth strategy and expand our service capabilities. Such financing might not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. In particular, our ability to obtain financing for growth may depend in part on our ability to first enter into customer agreements sufficient to demonstrate such growth. If we are unable to obtain such financing, or secure sufficient customer agreements, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, we will not be able to execute our growth strategy.

To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms of those securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a holder of Ordinary Shares. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making acquisitions or capital expenditures or declaring dividends. Debt financing could also have significant negative consequences for our business, results of operations and financial condition, including, among others, increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions, limiting our ability to obtain additional financing, requiring the dedication of a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, thereby reducing the amount of our cash flow available for other purposes, limiting our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business, and placing us at a possible competitive disadvantage compared to less leveraged competitors or competitors that may have better access to capital resources.

If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or solutions, or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or other arrangements when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our commercialization, research and development efforts or grant rights to third parties to market and/or develop solutions that we would otherwise prefer to market and develop ourselves.

Higher costs or unavailability of materials used to create hardware could adversely affect our financial results.

We depend on certain suppliers for the delivery of components used in the assembly of our hardware products. In particular, we use specialized adapters to connect the phone being examined and a computer. If we become unable to obtain any components necessary for our hardware products, we may struggle to fulfill contracts and acquire new

customers. We keep in average six months of inventory on hand for long lead-time components to mitigate this risk, which we believe would give us enough time to resolve any shortage due to an issue with a particular supplier, but it might not be enough time to resolve a shortage that stems from resource scarcity. Any interruption of supply for any material components of our products could significantly delay the shipment of our products and have a material adverse effect on our revenue, profitability and financial condition. International or domestic geopolitical or other events, including the imposition of new or increased tariffs and/or quotas by the U.S. federal government on any of these raw materials or components, could adversely impact the supply and cost of these raw materials or components, and could adversely impact the profitability of our operations. Additionally, if we experience an unpredicted increase in customer demand, we might not be able to acquire enough materials to meet that demand in a timely manner.

Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could materially affect our financial results.

Our financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars. For current and potential international customers whose contracts are denominated in U.S. dollars, the relative change in local currency values creates relative fluctuations in our product pricing. These changes in international end-user costs may result in lost orders and reduce the competitiveness of our solutions in certain foreign markets. Additionally, intercompany sales to our non-U.S. dollar functional currency international subsidiaries are transacted in U.S. dollars which could increase our foreign exchange rate risk caused by foreign currency transaction gains and losses.

For non-U.S. dollar denominated sales, weakening of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar generally leads us to raise international pricing, potentially reducing demand for our solutions. Should we decide not to raise local prices to fully offset the U.S. dollar’s strengthening, the U.S. dollar value of our foreign currency denominated sales and earnings would be adversely affected. Fluctuations in foreign currency could result in a change in the U.S. dollar value of our foreign denominated assets and liabilities including accounts receivable. Therefore, the U.S. dollar equivalent collected on a given sale could be less than the amount invoiced causing the sale to be less profitable than contemplated.

We also import selected components which are used in the manufacturing of some of our hardware products. Although our purchase orders are generally in U.S. dollars, weakness in the U.S. dollar could lead to price increases for the components.

Approximately 40% of our expenses, primarily payroll and rent, are paid in Israeli new shekels (ILS). The U.S. dollar has generally weakened compared to the ILS over the last several years, which could have an adverse impact on our expenses and profitability. Although we take steps to hedge our foreign currency exposures related to our ILS expenses, there is no assurance that our hedging strategy will be successful.

The sales cycle for some of our solutions can be lengthy.

Most of our sales transactions involve a short sales cycle; however, larger transactions often involve a longer sales cycle and may require, for example, discussions about budget and which potential solution is most suitable to the customer. The larger the sale, the longer these consultations tend to last. If our sales efforts to a potential customer do not result in sufficient revenue to justify our time and investments, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. We are currently expanding our sales of Premium Enterprise, and Pathfinder Enterprise and so the impact of these longer sales cycles could become more significant over time.

If we are unable to retain qualified personnel and senior management, including Yossi Carmil, our Chief Executive Officer, and hire and retain additional qualified personnel, our business could suffer.

Our ability to compete in the highly competitive technology industry depends upon our ability to attract, motivate, and retain qualified personnel. We are highly dependent on the continued contributions and customer relationships of our management and particularly on the solutions of Yossi Carmil, our Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Carmil has served as our Chief Executive Officer for fifteen years, and has been integral to our growth over this period. We believe that Mr. Carmil’s management experience would be difficult to replace. All of our executive officers and key personnel are at-will employees and may terminate their employment relationship with us at any time. The loss of the services of our key personnel and any of our other executive officers, and our inability to find suitable replacements, could result in a decline in sales, delays in product development, and harm to our business and operations.

Our success also depends on our ability to effectively source and staff people with the right mix of skills and experience to perform services for our customers, including our ability to transition personnel to new assignments on a timely basis. If we are unable to effectively utilize our personnel on a timely basis to fulfill the needs of our customers, our business could suffer.

We face intense competition for qualified personnel, especially personnel in research and development. Further, many of the companies with which we compete for qualified personnel have greater resources than we have. We seek to retain and motivate existing personnel through our compensation practices, company culture, and career development opportunities. If we fail to attract new personnel or to retain our current personnel, our business and operations could be harmed.

Certain of our key employees participate in a share option plan and receive options to purchase Ordinary Shares. If there is volatility in the trading price of Ordinary Shares, this may also affect our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel. Personnel may be more likely to leave us if the Ordinary Shares they own have significantly appreciated in value relative to the original purchase price of these shares or the exercise price of the options, or conversely, if the exercise price of the options that they hold are significantly above the trading price. In addition, some of our personnel may receive significant proceeds from sales of Ordinary Shares in the public markets, which may reduce their motivation to continue to work for us. Any of these factors could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The security of our operations and the integrity of our software solutions are critical to our operations and to maintaining the trust and confidence of our customers.

We have established practices and procedures intended to protect the security, integrity, availability and confidentiality of our systems and the integrity of our software solutions. However, there can be no assurance that such measures will prevent all malicious activities, including deliberate insertion of exploitative code, malware or cyberattacks, or inadvertent disclosures (including of personal or confidential business information) or unauthorized access, from impacting our system and information. We monitor new technological developments and new threats, and consistently update our software as needed to enhance its security. We may experience breaches of our security due to human error, malfeasance, system errors or vulnerabilities, or other irregularities. As the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access change frequently, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. Although to date, malicious activities directed at us have not had a material impact on our business nor, to our knowledge, have they impacted the integrity of the data that our solutions extract from devices, future malicious activities could compromise our solutions and cause us to incur liabilities that may have a material adverse impact on our reputation and business. While we maintain insurance coverage that we believe is adequate for our business, such coverage may not cover all potential costs and expenses associated with incidents that may occur in the future.

Risks Related to the Businesses of Cellebrite’s Customers

Our sales to government customers expose us to business volatility and risks, including government budgeting cycles and appropriations, early termination, audits, investigations, sanctions and penalties.

We generate revenue from contracts with federal, state, provincial and local governments of several countries, and these government customers may terminate most of these contracts at any time, without cause. There is increased pressure on governments and their agencies, both domestically and internationally, to reduce spending. Further, the U.S. federal government contracts are subject to the approval of appropriations made by the U.S. Congress to fund the expenditures under these contracts. Similarly, our contracts with U.S. state and local governments, Canadian federal, provincial and local governments and other foreign governments and their agencies are generally subject to government funding authorizations. Additionally, government contracts are generally subject to audits and investigations which could result in various civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, including termination of contracts, refund of a portion of fees received, forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines and suspensions or debarment from future government business.

A decline in government budgets, changes in spending or budgetary priorities, or delays in contract awards may significantly and adversely affect our future revenue and limit our growth prospects.

We generated approximately 90% of our revenue in 2018, 2019 and 2020 from contracts with governments and government agencies, our results of operations could be adversely affected by government spending caps or changes in government budgetary priorities, as well as by delays in the government budget process, program starts, or the award of contracts or orders under existing contract vehicles. Further, these government clients may terminate most of these contracts at any time, without cause and face increased pressure to reduce spending see “— Risks Related to Our Business and Industry —.” We are materially dependent on acceptance of our solutions by law enforcement markets and government agencies, both domestic and international. If law enforcement and other government agencies do not continue to purchase, accept and use our solutions, our revenue will be adversely affected.” Future spending and program authorizations may not increase or may decrease or shift to programs in areas in which we do not provide services or are less likely to be awarded contracts. We face these risks in every country in which we operate.

Revenues from the U.S. federal government customers comprised over 20% of our total revenue in 2020. When the U.S. Congress does not complete a budget before the end of the fiscal year, government operations typically are funded through one or more continuing resolutions that authorize agencies of the U.S. federal government to continue to operate consistent with funding levels from the prior year’s appropriated amounts, but do not authorize new spending initiatives. When the U.S. federal government operates under a continuing resolution, contract awards may be delayed, canceled, or funded at lower levels, which could adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations. If appropriations or continuing resolutions for the U.S. federal government departments and agencies with which we work or have prospective business are not made by September 30 (the last day of the federal fiscal year) of any given year, the lapse in appropriations may also have negative impacts on our ability to continue work and to recognize revenue from those customers, for so long as the lapse continues.

The U.S. federal government may also shift spending away from one or more of the federal agencies from which we derive much of our revenue, such as Immigration and Customs Enforcement, for budgetary or political reasons. A significant decline in overall U.S. federal government spending, a significant shift in spending priorities, the substantial reduction or elimination of particular law enforcement-related programs, or significant budget-related delays in contract or task order awards for large programs could adversely affect our future revenue and limit our growth prospects.

Evolving government procurement policies and increased emphasis on cost over performance could adversely affect our business.

A significant majority of our customers are in the public sector. The procurement process for government agencies can be more challenging than contracting in the private sector and can impose additional costs and complicate sales efforts. Further, changes in the political landscape or required procurement procedures that affect our target customers could be introduced prior to the completion of our sales cycle, making it more difficult or costly to finalize a contract with a new customer or expand or renew an existing customer relationship. For example, customers may require a competitive bidding process with extended response deadlines, review or appeal periods, or customer attention may be diverted to other government matters, postponing the consideration of the purchase of our solutions. Such delays could harm our ability to provide our solutions efficiently and to grow or maintain our customer base. In addition, the majority of our government contracts include the right for government agencies to delay, curtail, renegotiate or terminate contracts and subcontracts at their convenience any time prior to their completion. Any decision by a government customer to exercise any of these rights in our contracts may result in a decline in our profits and revenue.

Changes in civil forfeiture laws may affect our customers’ ability to purchase our solutions.

Many of our law enforcement customers in the United States use funds seized through civil forfeiture proceedings to fund the purchase of our solutions. State civil forfeiture statutes permit state governments to seize property with limited judicial oversight, often based on a preponderance of the evidence that the property was connected to criminal activity even if the owner of the property is not subject to criminal charges. A one-justice U.S. Supreme Court opinion in March 2017 sharply criticized civil forfeiture as possibly violating the due process clause of the U.S. Constitution, although the U.S. Supreme Court in that instance declined to hear the case on procedural grounds. An adverse U.S. Supreme Court decision or changes in state legislation could impact our customers’ ability to seize funds or use seized funds to fund purchases. Changes in civil forfeiture statutes or regulations are outside of our control and could limit the amount of funds available to our customers, which could adversely affect the sale of our solutions.

Our revenue from private sector customers could be adversely affected by any weakening of economic conditions.

Our private sector customers may be more susceptible to weakening economic conditions than our public sector customers. Certain economies have experienced periods of downturn as a result of a multitude of factors, including, but not limited to, turmoil in the credit and financial markets, concerns regarding the stability and viability of major financial institutions, declines in gross domestic product, increases in unemployment, volatility in commodity prices and worldwide stock markets, excessive government debt and disruptions to global trade or tariffs. The severity and length of time that a downturn in economic and financial market conditions may persist, as well as the timing, strength and sustainability of any recovery, are unknown and are beyond our control. Recently, COVID-19 has raised additional concerns regarding economic uncertainties. Moreover, any instability in the global economy affects countries in different ways, at different times and with varying severity, which makes the impact to our business complex and unpredictable. During such downturns, many customers may delay or reduce technology purchases. Contract negotiations may become more protracted or conditions could result in reductions in the sales of our software, hardware and solutions, longer sales cycles, pressure on our margins, difficulties in collection of accounts receivable or delayed payments, increased default risks associated with our accounts receivables, slower adoption of new technologies and increased price competition. In addition, deterioration of the global credit markets could adversely impact our ability to complete licensing transactions and services transactions, including maintenance and support renewals. Any of these events, as well as a general weakening of, or declining corporate confidence in, the global economy, or a curtailment in corporate spending could delay or decrease our revenue and therefore have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. For more information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on our business and global economic conditions, see “— Risks Related to Our Business and Industry — The global COVID-19 pandemic could negatively impact our business, installations, trainings, and general operations.”

Risks Related to Cellebrite’s Intellectual Property

Failure to adequately obtain, maintain, protect and enforce our intellectual property and other proprietary rights could adversely affect our business.

Our success and ability to compete depends in part on our ability to maintain, protect, enforce and defend our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. We rely upon a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as certain contractual provisions, to establish, maintain, protect and enforce our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. Despite our efforts, third parties may attempt to disclose, obtain, copy, or use our intellectual property or other proprietary information or technology without our authorization, and our efforts to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights may not prevent such unauthorized disclosure or use, misappropriation, infringement, reverse engineering or other violation of our intellectual property or other proprietary rights. Effective protection of our rights may not be available to us in every country in which our platform or solutions are available. The laws of some countries may not be as protective of intellectual property and other proprietary rights as those in Israel or the United States, and mechanisms for enforcement of intellectual property and other proprietary rights may be inadequate. Also, our involvement in standard setting activity or the need to obtain licenses from others may require us to license our intellectual property. Accordingly, despite our efforts, we may be unable to prevent third parties from using our intellectual property or other proprietary information or technology. The violation of our end-user license agreement by transferring or allowing the use of our proprietary information or technology without a license may pose additional risks.

In addition, we may be the subject of intellectual property infringement or misappropriation claims, which could be very time-consuming and expensive to settle or litigate and could divert our management’s attention and other resources. These claims could also subject us to significant liability for damages if we are found to have infringed patents, copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights, or breached trademark co-existence agreements or other intellectual property licenses and could require us to cease using or to rebrand all or portions of our platform.

Any of our intellectual property rights may be challenged, narrowed, invalidated, held unenforceable, or circumvented in litigation or other proceedings, including, where applicable, opposition, re-examination, inter partes review, post-grant review, interference, nullification and derivation proceedings, and equivalent proceedings in foreign jurisdictions, and such intellectual property or other proprietary rights may be lost or no longer provide us meaningful competitive advantages. Such proceedings may result in substantial cost and require significant time from our management, even if the eventual outcome is favorable to us.

While we currently have no outstanding patents, we may in the future determine that we require patents in order to protect our software and processes, and we may be unable to obtain patent protection for the technology covered in our patent applications or such patent protection may not be obtained quickly enough to meet our business needs. Furthermore, the patent prosecution process is expensive, time-consuming, and complex, and we may not be able to prepare, file, prosecute, maintain, and enforce all necessary or desirable patent applications at a reasonable cost or in a timely manner. The scope of patent protection also can be reinterpreted after issuance and issued patents may be invalidated. Even if our patent applications do issue as patents, they may not issue in a form that is sufficiently broad to protect our technology, prevent competitors or other third parties form competing with us or otherwise provide us with any competitive advantage.

Third parties may legitimately and independently develop products, services, and technology similar to or duplicative of our platform. In addition to protection under intellectual property laws, we rely on confidentiality or license agreements that we generally enter into with our corporate partners, employees, consultants, advisors, vendors, and customers, and generally limit access to and distribution of our proprietary information. However, we cannot be certain that we have entered into such agreements with all parties who may have or have had access to our confidential information or that the agreements we have entered into will not be breached or challenged, or that such breaches will be detected. Furthermore, non-disclosure provisions can be difficult to enforce, and even if successfully enforced, may not be entirely effective. We cannot guarantee that any of the measures we have taken will prevent infringement, misappropriation, or other violation of our technology or other intellectual property or proprietary rights.

Because we have historically been targeted by cyberattacks and may continue to be an attractive target for cyberattacks, we also may have a heightened risk of unauthorized access to, and misappropriation of, our proprietary and competitively sensitive information. We spend significant resources to monitor and protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights from cyberattacks and potential infringement, and in the future we may conclude that in at least some instances the benefits of protecting our intellectual property or other proprietary rights may be outweighed by the expense or distraction to our management. We may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for infringement, misappropriation, or other violation of our intellectual property or other proprietary rights or to establish the validity of our intellectual property or other proprietary rights. Any such litigation, whether or not it is resolved in our favor, could be time-consuming, result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel. Furthermore, attempts to enforce our intellectual property rights against third parties could also provoke these third parties to assert their own intellectual property or other rights against us, or result in a holding that invalidates or narrows the scope of our rights, in whole or in part.

Some of our software and systems contain open source software, which may pose particular risks to our proprietary software and information technology systems.

We utilize open source software in the development and application of our software solutions, and we will use open source software in the future. Such open source software is generally licensed by its authors or other third parties under open source licenses and is typically freely accessible, usable, and modifiable. Pursuant to such open source licenses, we may be subject to certain conditions, including requirements that we offer our proprietary software that incorporates the open source software for no cost, that we make available source code for modifications or derivative works we create based upon, utilizing open source software, and that we license such modifications or derivative works under the terms of the particular open source license. We may face claims from third parties claiming ownership of, or demanding the release or license of, the open source software or derivative works that we developed from such software (which could include our proprietary source code), or otherwise seeking to enforce the terms of the applicable open source license. These claims could result in litigation and could require us to purchase a costly license, publicly release the affected portions of our source code, or cease offering the implicated software unless and until we can re-engineer it to avoid infringement. We also may be required to re-engineer solutions if the license terms for incorporated open source software change. The re-engineering process of some or all of our software could require significant additional research and development resources, and we may not be able to complete it successfully. In addition, use of open source software can lead to greater risks than use of third-party commercial software because open source licensors generally do not provide warranties or controls on the origin of the software. Use of open source software may also present additional security risks because the public availability of such software may make it easier for hackers and other third parties to determine how to breach our website and systems that rely on open source software. These risks could be difficult to eliminate or manage and, if not addressed, could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial conditions.

Other companies may claim that we infringe their intellectual property, which could materially increase costs and materially harm our ability to generate future revenue and profits.

Claims of infringement (including misappropriation and/or other intellectual property violation) are common in the software industry and increasing as related legal protections, including copyrights and patents, are applied to software solutions. Although most of our technology is proprietary in nature, we do include certain third party and open source software in our software solutions. In the case of third party software, we believe this software is licensed from the entity holding the intellectual property rights. While we believe that we have secured proper licenses for all material third-party intellectual property that is integrated into our solutions in a manner that requires a license, third parties have and may continue to assert infringement claims against us in the future, including the sometimes aggressive and opportunistic actions of non-practicing entities whose business model is to obtain patent-licensing revenue from operating companies such as us. Any such assertion, regardless of merit, may result in litigation or may require us to obtain a license for the intellectual property rights of third parties. Such licenses may not be available, or they may not be available on commercially reasonable terms. In addition, as we continue to develop software solutions and expand our portfolio using new technology and innovation, our exposure to threats of infringement may increase. Any infringement claims and related litigation could be time-consuming, expensive to settle or litigate, disruptive to our ability to generate revenue or enter into new market opportunities, could divert our management’s attention and other resources, and may result in significant liability for damages if we are found to have infringed third party rights, and/or significantly increased costs as a result of our defense against those claims or our attempt to license the intellectual property rights or rework or rebrand our solutions to avoid infringement of third party rights. Typically, our agreements with our partners and customers contain provisions which require us to indemnify them for damages sustained by them as a result of any infringement claims involving our solutions. Any of the foregoing infringement claims and related litigation could have a significant adverse impact on our business and operating results as well as our ability to generate future revenue and profits.

Risks Related to Data Privacy and Human Rights

Certain of our solutions may be perceived as, or determined by the courts to be, a violation of privacy rights and related laws. Any such perception or determination could adversely affect our revenue and results of operations.

Because of the nature of certain of our solutions, including those used for digital investigations, the general public could perceive that the deployment of our solutions may result in violations of individual privacy rights. In addition, certain courts or regulatory authorities could determine that the use of our software solutions is a violation of privacy laws. Any such determination or perception by potential customers, the general public, government entities or the judicial system could harm our reputation and adversely affect our revenue and results of operations. We are dedicating substantial resources to mitigate these risks by complying with applicable laws and requiring all licensees to comply with applicable laws and to refrain from violation of privacy rights, but we have been advised that even if we have no access to the data stored on a customer’s devices, we may still be held liable for how the customer uses such data, including if the customer uses the data in a way that is a violation of privacy rights or related laws or our End User License Agreement (“EULA”).

Some of our solutions may be used by customers in a way that is, or that is perceived to be, incompatible with human rights. Any such perception could adversely affect our reputation, revenue and results of operations.

We strive to sell our solutions to customers who will use them in a lawful and ethical manner. See “— We may not enter into relationships with potential customers if we consider their activities to be inconsistent with our organizational mission or values.” For example, all users are required to confirm, before activation, that they will only use the system for lawful uses, but Cellebrite cannot verify that this undertaking is accurate. Further, some of our government customers may use our solutions in a manner that is incompatible with, or perceived to be incompatible with, human rights without our knowledge or permission. For example, in August 2020, a group of 61 petitioners, including a number of human rights activists, filed a petition before the District Court in Tel Aviv against various Israeli government entities and Cellebrite. The petition asked the District Court to exercise its power under the Defense Export Control Law to stop the exportation of our UFED solution to police forces in Hong Kong. Activists alleged that UFED was being used against pro-democracy protestors in Hong Kong and that this was resulting in human rights abuses. We have since stopped operating in China and Hong Kong and have proactively stopped selling to Russia, but this petition as well as petitions relating to Russia and Bangladesh and the corresponding media coverage may have negatively impacted our reputation. Our end use license agreements prohibit customers from using our products in a

manner that violates applicable laws (including laws with respect to human rights and the rights of individuals) or in support of any illegal activity or to violate the rights of any third party, and requires our customers to indemnify us for losses that we suffer due to their actions; however, we cannot provide any assurance that we will not be subject to claims from third parties alleging that their rights were infringed. In the future, other allegations of misuse by our customers may damage our reputation, even if we took no part in the misuse or take immediate action to sever ties with such customers.

We may not enter into relationships with potential customers if we consider their activities to be inconsistent with our organizational mission or values.

We generally do not enter into business with customers whose positions or actions we consider inconsistent with our mission to support law enforcement acting in a legal manner. We pursue only those customers who we believe will act lawfully and not in a manner incompatible with privacy rights or human rights. For example, we have chosen not to do business in Bangladesh, Belarus, China, Hong Kong, Macau, Russia and Venezuela partially due to concerns regarding human rights and data security, and we may in the future decide not to do business in other countries or with other potential customers for similar reasons.

Our products are used as an on-premise solution for our customers, many of which are required to host their proprietary data within their own organization, and are operated by our customers without our involvement other than with respect to troubleshooting and support from time to time. As a result, we rely on a range of information sources, and largely depend on media and other reports, to learn if our products are being used inconsistent with our organizational mission and values. Third party reports may be incomplete, unreliable or unavailable. In addition, a determination as to whether our products are being misused may involve subjective determinations or being the subject of differing opinions. The board of the Company has approved the formation of an Ethics and Integrity Committee that will serve as an advisory body to the board. It is intended that the committee that will be comprised of approximately eight industry experts, which may include ethics experts, legal experts, former members of the police force, former members of ministries of defense, technology experts, academic experts and community leaders. The mission of the Ethics and Integrity Committee is expected to include advising on ethical considerations related to the use of the Company’s technologies.

The license to use our products prohibits customers from using our solutions in violation of applicable laws (including laws with respect to human rights and the rights of individuals) or in support of any illegal activity or to violate the rights of any third party. We may terminate any license, among other things, in the event of a material breach that is not cured after 30 days’ notice. In addition, we may disable the use of the software, among other things, if it is used in violation of the license. A determination regarding whether a breach of our license will result in termination or other corrective action involves judgment and depends on the facts and circumstances of each case.

We cannot be sure that the foregoing safeguards will be sufficient to identify misuse of our products or prevent any such misuse. Our decisions not to do business with these countries may alter our expectations surrounding our long-term financial benefits and results, which may harm our growth prospects, business, and results of operations. Although we endeavour to do business with customers and governments that are aligned with our mission and values, we cannot predict how the activities and values of our government and private sector customers will evolve over time, and they may evolve in a manner inconsistent with our mission.

We occasionally have limited access to third party data, and if our security measures are breached and unauthorized access to this data is obtained, our systems, data centers and our solutions may be perceived as not being secure, customers may curtail or stop using our service and we may incur significant legal and financial exposure and liabilities.

We do not generally store customer data nor have access to the data processed by customers using our solutions. Nevertheless, our service operators occasionally have brief and limited access to data, including personally identifiable information (PII), when they receive calls for technical support. When a customer calls for technical support, they sometimes grant our service operators remote access to their device, which may result in the brief sharing of data with the service operator. In rare cases the customer may share the data with the technical support for further bug fixing research and analysis. We have internal processes for deleting such data shortly after the completion of the customer support and ensuring bug fix is sustainable and consistent, but the data is still shared for these limited periods and could potentially be, or be perceived as, more vulnerable as a result. In addition, we may have access to customer data, including PII, in connection with the provision of our Advanced Services in which we serve as an outsourced lab for

the extraction of data from devices that are sent to us by our customers. Any actual or perceived unauthorized access, use, disclosure or modification to this data, could result in our solutions being viewed as less secure, which could lead to liability and a significant adverse effect on our reputation and operating results.

Risks Related to Legal Compliance and Regulatory Matters

Our business is subject to complex and evolving U.S. and non-U.S. laws and regulations regarding privacy, data protection and security, technology protection, and other matters. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation, and could result in claims, changes to our business practices, monetary penalties, increased cost of operations, or otherwise harm our business.

Our products are used as an on-premise solution and are generally operated by our customers without our involvement. Nevertheless, our service operators occasionally have brief and limited access to customer data, including personally identifiable information (PII), when they receive calls for technical support. In addition, we may extract files containing customer data, including PII, in connection with the provision of our Advanced Services in which we serve as an outsourced lab for the extraction of data from devices that are sent to us by our customers. In both of those situations, we do not access or view customer data, maintain such data securely with limited access, and delete all such data following the confirmation that the data has been received by the customer. As a result, for the purposes of the GDPR and the UK equivalent legislation, we are not considered to be a controller and serve as a processor in a number of circumstances, within the meaning of those terms.

Given the global nature of our operations, we are subject to a variety of local, state, national, and international laws and directives and regulations in the United States and abroad related to privacy and data protection, data security, data storage, retention, transfer and deletion, technology protection, and personal information, including:

•        The European General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) took effect in May 2018 and applies to many of our products and services that provide service in Europe. The GDPR includes operational requirements for companies that receive or process personal data of residents of the EU. We are required to comply with the GDPR and, following the exit of the United Kingdom (“UK”) from the European Union, the UK equivalent, the implementation of which exposes us to two parallel data protection regimes in Europe, each of which impose several stringent requirements for controllers and processors of personal data and could make it more difficult to and/or more costly for us to collect, store, use, transmit and process personal and sensitive data. In 2016, the EU and the U.S. agreed to an alternative transfer framework for data transferred from the EU to the United States called the Privacy Shield Framework. However, in 2020, the EU’s Court of Justice invalidated the use of this framework moving forward. The court ruled that the framework did not ensure an adequate level of protection for data transferred from the EU to the United States. Notably, there are alternative legal mechanisms available that allow the compliant transfer of data from the EU to the United States, however, they may also be challenged by national regulators or private parties. Non-compliance with the GDPR and the UK legislation equivalent may result in administrative fines or monetary penalties of up to 4% of worldwide annual revenue in the preceding financial year or €20 million (whichever is higher) for the most serious infringements, and could result in proceedings against us by governmental entities or other related parties and may otherwise adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

•        The California Consumer Privacy Act, or the CCPA, went into effect on January 1, 2020 and became enforceable by the California Attorney General on July 1, 2020, along with related regulations that came into force on August 14, 2020. The CCPA gives California residents new rights to access and require deletion of their personal information, opt out of the sale of personal information, and receive detailed information about how their personal information is collected, used, and shared. The CCPA provides for civil penalties for violations, as well as a private right of action for security breaches that may increase security breach litigation. The effects of the CCPA potentially are significant and may require us to modify our data collection or processing practices and policies and to incur substantial costs and expenses in an effort to comply. Additionally, in November 2020, California voters passed the California Privacy Rights and Enforcement Act of 2020, or the CPRA. The CPRA will impose additional data protection obligations on companies doing business in California, including additional consumer rights processes and opt outs for certain uses of sensitive data and establishes a regulatory agency dedicated to enforcing those requirements. The majority of the provisions will go into effect on January 1, 2023, and additional compliance investment and potential business process changes may be required.

Certain other state laws in the United States impose similar privacy obligations and all 50 states have laws including obligations to provide notification of certain security breaches to affected individuals, state officials and others. For example, on March 2, 2021, Virginia enacted the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (“VCDPA”), creating the second truly comprehensive U.S. state privacy law, which will take effect on January 1, 2023 (the same day as CPRA takes effect). Further, there currently are also a number of proposals related to data privacy or security pending before federal, state, and foreign legislative and regulatory bodies, including in a number of states considering consumer protection laws similar to the CCPA and VCDPA. This legislation may add additional complexity, variation in requirements, restrictions and potential legal risk, require additional investment in resources to compliance programs, and could impact strategies and availability of previously useful data and could result in increased compliance costs and/or changes in business practices and policies. These developments may require us to review and amend the legal mechanisms by which we make and, or, receive personal data transfers from other countries to Israel. As data protection regulators issue further guidance on personal data export mechanisms, including circumstances where the standard contractual clauses cannot be used, and/or start taking enforcement action, we could suffer additional costs, complaints and/or regulatory investigations or fines, and/or if we are otherwise unable to transfer personal data between and among countries and regions in which we operate, it could affect the manner in which we provide our services, the geographical location or segregation of our relevant systems and operations, and could adversely affect our financial results.

These existing and proposed laws and regulations can be costly to comply with and can make our platform solutions less effective or valuable, delay or impede the development of new solutions, result in negative publicity, increase our operating costs, require us to modify our data handling practices, limit our operations, impose substantial fines and penalties, require significant management time and attention, or put our data or technology at risk. Any failure or perceived failure by us or our platform to comply with U.S., EU, UK or other foreign laws, regulations, directives, policies, industry standards, or legal obligations relating to privacy, data protection, or information security, or any security incident that results in loss of or the unauthorized access to, or acquisition, use, release, or transfer of, personal information, personal data, or other customer or sensitive data or information may result in governmental investigations, inquiries, enforcement actions and prosecutions, private claims and litigation, indemnification or other contractual obligations, other remedies, including fines or demands that we modify or cease existing business practices, or adverse publicity, and related costs and liabilities, which could significantly and adversely affect our business, reputation and results of operations.

We may in the future become involved in legal, regulatory, or administrative inquiries and proceedings, and unfavorable outcomes in litigation or other of these matters could negatively impact our business, financial conditions, and results of operations.

From time to time, we receive formal and informal inquiries from governmental agencies and regulators regarding our compliance with laws and regulations or otherwise relating to our business or transactions. We may also become subject to claims, lawsuits, proceedings and inquiries which could involve labor and employment disputes, discrimination and harassment allegations, commercial disputes, intellectual property rights (including patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret, and other proprietary rights), class actions, general contract, tort, or defamation, data privacy rights, antitrust concerns, common law fraud, government regulation, compliance, alleged federal and state securities and “blue sky” law violations or other investor related questions. Derivative claims, lawsuits, and proceedings, which may, from time to time, be asserted against our directors by our shareholders, could involve breach of fiduciary duty, breach of duty of loyalty, failure of oversight, corporate waste claims, and other matters. One of our shareholders, with respect to whom we are currently engaged in litigation as described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements has threatened to bring various of these claims. In addition, our business and results may be adversely affected by the outcome of currently pending and any future legal, regulatory, and/or administrative claims or proceedings, including through monetary damages or injunctive relief. In addition, over the last several years, lawsuits have been filed against cyber-related companies by large multinationals that claim that their terms of use have been violated and breached by the activities of the cyber companies. While we are not a cyber company, such a risk could potentially also apply to us and our solutions.

The number and significance of our legal disputes and inquiries may increase as we continue to grow larger, as our business has expanded in customer count and geographic reach, and as our platform solutions have become more complex. Additionally, if customers fail to pay us under the terms of our agreements, we may be adversely affected due to the cost of enforcing the terms of our contracts through litigation. Litigation or other proceedings can be expensive

and time consuming and can divert our resources and leadership’s attention from our primary business operations. The results of our litigation also cannot be predicted with certainty. If we are unable to prevail in litigation, we could incur payments of substantial monetary damages or fines, or undesirable changes to our platform or business practices, and accordingly, our business, financial condition, or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Furthermore, if we accrue a loss contingency for pending litigation and determine that it is probable, any disclosures, estimates, and reserves we reflect in our financial statements with regard to these matters may not reflect the ultimate disposition or financial impact of litigation or other such matters. These proceedings could also result in negative publicity, which could harm customer and public perception of our business, regardless of whether the allegations are valid or whether we are ultimately found liable.

We have taken steps to mitigate the impact of any potential legal disputes, but the steps we have taken may not be enough to prevent damage to our reputation and financial results. Although we have limitation of liability provisions in our standard software licensing and service agreement terms and conditions, these provisions may not be enforceable in some circumstances, may vary in levels of protection across our agreements, or may not fully or effectively protect us from such claims and related liabilities and costs. We generally provide a warranty for our software and hardware solutions in our EULAs. In the event that there is a failure of warranties in such agreements, we are generally obligated to correct the product to conform to the warranty provision as set forth in the applicable EULA, or, if we are unable to do so, the customer is entitled to seek a refund of the purchase price of the product and service. The sale and support of our solutions also entail the risk of product liability claims. We maintain errors and omissions insurance to protect against certain claims associated with the use of our solutions, but our insurance coverage may not adequately cover any claim asserted against us. In addition, even claims that ultimately are unsuccessful could result in our expenditure of funds in litigation and divert management’s time and other resources.

We are subject to Israeli encryption laws and governmental trade controls, including export and regulations, and any noncompliance with these laws could negatively impact our operating results.

The export of our solutions is subject to Israeli encryption control laws. Our export license under the Israeli encryption control regime prohibits us from exporting of our products to customers in certain countries and require us to obtain the consent of the Ministry of Defense to export to customers in certain other countries. Our failure to comply with these requirements could subject us to financial and other penalties, and harm our reputation.

Although Israel is not a party to the Wassenaar Arrangement, it has adopted the Wassenaar Arrangement List of Dual Use Goods and Technologies and the goods and technologies listed therein are subject to Israeli export control laws and regulations. However, cryptography that is subject to Israeli encryption laws is not regulated under the Israeli export control regime, even if its capabilities would otherwise place it within Part 2 of Chapter 5 of the Wassenaar Arrangement Dual Use List which relates to Information Security. In 2016, the Israeli Ministry of Defense published draft regulations proposing to cancel the existing encryption control regime and to bring Part 2 of Chapter 5 of the Wassenaar Arrangement into full force and effect in its place. If our solutions do become subject to the Wassenaar Arrangement dual use list as adopted by Israel, then they likely will be controlled under either the Israeli Defense Export Control Law, 5767-2007 or the Import and Export Order (Export Control over Dual Use Goods, Services and Technology), 5766-2006, depending on the nature of the customer. The application of these requirements to us could subject us to different licensing requirements and may require us to adapt our marketing and export practices to accommodate this change. This development could adversely impact our ability to sell our products.

In addition, various other countries regulate the import of certain encryption solutions and technology, including import permitting and licensing requirements, and have enacted laws that could limit our ability to distribute our solutions or could limit our customers’ ability to implement our solutions in those countries. Any new export restrictions, new import restrictions, new legislation, changes in economic sanctions, or shifting approaches in the enforcement or scope of existing regulations, or in the countries, persons, or technologies targeted by such regulations, could result in decreased use of our platform by existing customers with non-U.S. operations, declining adoption of our platform by new customers with non-U.S. operations, limitation of our expansion into new markets, and decreased revenue.

Our activities may be subject to certain economic sanctions laws including the laws of the Israel and the United States. We have adopted policies and procedures to restrict sales to countries subject to comprehensive U.S. and Israeli sanctions and to designated entities and individuals. Our solutions and technologies could be exported to these sanctioned targets by our resellers despite the contractual undertakings they have given us and any such export could

have negative consequences, including government investigations, penalties and reputational harm. Any change in export regulations, economic sanctions or related legislation, shift in the enforcement or scope of existing regulations, or change in the countries, governments, persons or technologies targeted by such regulations, could result in decreased use of our solutions by, or in our decreased ability to export or sell our solutions to, existing or potential customers with international operations. Any decreased use of our solutions or limitation on our ability to export or sell our solutions would likely adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Differing regulatory and legal requirements and the possible enactment of additional regulations or restrictions on the use, import, or re-export of our platforms or the provision of services, could delay, restrict, or prevent the sale or use of our platform and solutions in some jurisdictions. If we or our business partners or counterparties, including licensors and licensees, prime contractors, subcontractors, sublicensors, vendors, customers, shipping partners, or contractors, fail to obtain appropriate import, export, or re-export licenses or permits, notwithstanding regulatory requirements or contractual commitments to do so, or if we fail to secure such contractual commitments where necessary, we may also be adversely affected, through reputational harm as well as other negative consequences, including government investigations and penalties.

These laws and regulations are subject to change over time and thus we must continue to monitor and dedicate resources to ensure continued compliance. Although we take precautions to prevent our software from being provided in violation of such laws, the software could be provided inadvertently in violation of such laws, despite the precautions we take. Non-compliance with applicable regulations or requirements could subject us to investigations, sanctions, enforcement actions, disgorgement of profits, fines, damages, civil and criminal penalties, or injunctions. If any governmental sanctions are imposed, or if we do not prevail in any possible civil or criminal litigation, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. We may also be adversely affected through penalties, reputational harm, loss of access to certain markets, or otherwise. In addition, responding to any action will likely result in a significant diversion of management’s attention and resources and an increase in professional fees. Enforcement actions and sanctions could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our largest shareholder, SUNCORPORATION, is a Japanese public company and currently a holder of 51.1% of Cellebrite’s outstanding shares.

SUNCORPORATION (TSE JASDAQ: 6736), a Japanese public company, beneficially owns 51.1% of Ordinary Shares. Therefore, SUNCORPORATION has significant influence on the outcome of all decisions at our shareholders’ meetings including:

•        the election of the Cellebrite Board;

•        amendments to our articles of association; and

•        our ability to enter into a change of control transaction.

SUNCORPORATION’s decisions as to how it votes its Ordinary Shares may be contrary to your expectations or preferences. The influence exerted by SUNCORPORATION may limit your ability as an investor to influence corporate matters and could also discourage other companies from pursuing any potential merger, takeover, or other change of control transactions with us. Further, SUNCORPORATION is a controlling shareholder and controls elections to the Cellebrite Board and, therefore, our general corporate activities.

A variety of new and existing laws and/or interpretations could materially and adversely affect our business.

We are subject to a variety of laws and regulations in Israel and abroad that involve matters central to our business, including privacy, data protection and personal information, rights of publicity, content, intellectual property, advertising, marketing, distribution, data security, data retention and deletion, electronic contracts and other communications, competition, consumer protection, telecommunications, product liability, taxation, labor and employment, economic or other trade prohibitions or sanctions, securities law compliance, and online payment services. The introduction of new solutions, expansion of our business to certain jurisdictions, or other actions that we may take may subject us to additional laws, regulations, or other government scrutiny. In addition, foreign data

protection, privacy, content, competition, and other laws and regulations can impose different obligations or be more restrictive than those in Israel or the United States. These laws and regulations, which in some cases can be enforced by private parties in addition to government entities, are constantly evolving and can be subject to significant change. As a result, the application, interpretation, and enforcement of these laws and regulations are often uncertain and may be interpreted and applied inconsistently from country to country and inconsistently with our current policies and practices. New laws and regulations (or new interpretations of existing laws and regulations) may require us to incur substantial costs, expose us to unanticipated civil or criminal liability, or cause us to change our business practices. The costs of compliance with these laws and regulation are high and are likely to increase in the future. Additionally, these laws and regulations, or any associated inquiries or investigations or other government actions, may delay or impede the development of new solutions, result in negative publicity, require significant management time and attention, and subject us to remedies that may harm our business, including fines or demands or orders that we modify or cease existing business practices.

Failure to comply with laws, regulations, or contractual provisions applicable to our business could cause us to lose government customers or our ability to contract with the U.S. and other governments.

As a government contractor, we must comply with laws, regulations, and contractual provisions relating to the formation, administration, and performance of government contracts and inclusion on government contract vehicles, which affect how we and our partners do business with government agencies. As a result of actual or perceived non-compliance with government contracting laws, regulations, or contractual provisions, we may be subject to audits and internal investigations which may prove costly to our business financially, divert management time, or limit our ability to continue selling our platform and solutions to our government customers. Further, regulatory requirements imposed by foreign governments may be more stringent and non-compliance may subject us to investigations, proceedings, sanctions, or other consequences. These consequences remain uncertain because of the dynamic nature of governmental action and responses. These laws and regulations may impose other added costs on our business, and failure to comply with these or other applicable regulations and requirements, including non-compliance in the past, could lead to claims for damages from our channel partners, penalties, and termination of contracts and suspension or debarment from government contracting for a period of time with government agencies. Any such damages, penalties, disruption, or limitation in our ability to do business with a government could adversely impact, and could have a material adverse effect on, our business, results of operations, financial condition, public perception, and growth prospects.

Risks Relating to Cellebrite’s Incorporation and Location in Israel

Conditions in Israel could materially and adversely affect our business.

Many of our employees, including certain management members, operate from our offices that are located in Israel. In addition, a number of our officers and directors are residents of Israel and we have a small assembly facility in Israel. Accordingly, political, economic, and military conditions in Israel and the surrounding region may directly affect our business and operations. In recent years, Israel has been engaged in sporadic armed conflicts with terrorist and military groups. Further certain countries have threatened Israel and may be developing nuclear weapons. In recent years, some of these hostilities were accompanied by missiles being fired from the Gaza Strip against civilian targets in various parts of Israel, including areas in which our employees and some of our consultants are located, and potentially negatively affected business conditions in Israel. Any hostilities involving Israel or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its trading partners could adversely affect our operations and results of operations.

Our commercial insurance does not cover losses that may occur as a result of events associated with war and terrorism. Although the Israeli government currently covers the reinstatement value of direct damages that are caused by terrorist attacks or acts of war, we cannot assure you that this government coverage will be maintained or that it will sufficiently cover our potential damages. Any losses or damages incurred by us could have a material adverse effect on our business. Any armed conflicts or political instability in the region would likely negatively affect business conditions and could harm our results of operations.

Further, in the past, the State of Israel and Israeli companies have been subjected to economic boycotts. Several countries still restrict business with the State of Israel and with Israeli companies. These restrictive laws and policies may have an adverse impact on our operating results, financial condition or the expansion of our business. A campaign of boycotts, divestment and sanctions has been undertaken against Israel, which could also adversely impact our business.

In addition, many Israeli citizens are obligated to perform several days, and in some cases more, of annual military reserve duty each year until they reach the age of 40 (or older, for reservists who are military officers or who have certain occupations) and, in the event of a military conflict, may be called to active duty. In response to increases in terrorist activity, there have been periods of significant call-ups of military reservists. It is possible that there will be military reserve duty call-ups in the future. Our operations could be disrupted by such call-ups, which may include the call-up of members of our management. Such disruption could materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

It may be difficult to enforce a U.S. judgment against us, our officers and directors or the experts named in this prospectus in Israel or the United States, or to assert U.S. securities laws claims in Israel or serve process on our officers and directors or experts.

Most of our directors or officers are not residents of the United States and most of their and our assets are located outside the United States. Most of the experts named in this prospectus are also not residents of the United States. Service of process upon us or our non-U.S. resident directors and officers, and the experts named in this prospectus, and enforcement of judgments obtained in the United States against us or our non-U.S. our directors and executive officers or such experts may be difficult to obtain within the United States. We have been informed by our legal counsel in Israel that it may be difficult to assert claims under U.S. securities laws in original actions instituted in Israel or obtain a judgment based on the civil liability provisions of U.S. federal securities laws. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation of U.S. securities laws against us or our non-U.S. officers and directors because Israel may not be the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that Israeli law and not U.S. law is applicable to the claim. If U.S. law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact, typically through an expert witness, which can be a time-consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law. There is little binding case law in Israel addressing the matters described above. Israeli courts might not enforce judgments rendered outside of Israel, which may make it difficult to collect on judgments rendered outside of Israel against us or our non-U.S. officers and directors.

Moreover, an Israeli court will not enforce a non-Israeli judgment if it was given in a state whose laws do not provide for the enforcement of judgments of Israeli courts (subject to exceptional cases), if its enforcement is likely to prejudice the sovereignty or security of the State of Israel, if it was obtained by fraud or in the absence of due process, if it is at variance with another valid judgment that was given in the same matter between the same parties, or if a suit in the same matter between the same parties was pending before a court or tribunal in Israel at the time the foreign action was brought.

Your rights and responsibilities as our shareholder are governed by Israeli law, which may differ in some respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders of U.S. corporations.

We are incorporated under Israeli law. The rights and responsibilities of holders of Ordinary Shares are governed by the Amended Articles and the Companies Law. These rights and responsibilities differ in some respects from the rights and responsibilities of shareholders in typical U.S. corporations. In particular, pursuant to the Companies Law each shareholder of an Israeli company has to act in good faith and in a customary manner in exercising his, her or its rights and fulfilling his, her or its obligations toward the Company and other shareholders and to refrain from abusing his, her or its power in the Company, including, among other things, in voting at the general meeting of shareholders, on one of the following: (i) amendments to a company’s articles of association, (ii) increases in a company’s authorized share capital, (iii) mergers and (iv) certain transactions requiring shareholders’ approval under the Companies Law. In addition, a controlling shareholder of an Israeli company or a shareholder who knows that it possesses the power to determine the outcome of a shareholder vote or who has the power according to the Amended Articles to appoint or prevent the appointment of a director or officer in the Company, or has other powers toward the Company according to the Amended Articles, has a duty of fairness toward the Company. However, Israeli law does not define the substance of this duty of fairness. There is little case law available to assist in understanding the implications of these provisions that govern shareholder behavior.

Provisions in the Amended Articles may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against us and our directors and officers.

Under the Amended Articles, the competent courts of Tel Aviv, Israel are the exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of Cellebrite, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty or a claim of breach of the duty of loyalty owed by any of Cellebrite’s directors, officers or other employees or our shareholders, or (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Companies Law or the Israeli Securities Law.

Additionally, unless Cellebrite consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the U.S. federal courts shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act against us or any of our directors, officers, other employees or agents. Section 22 of the Securities Act, however, creates concurrent jurisdiction for U.S. federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such provisions, and the enforceability of similar choice of forum provisions in other companies’ charter documents has been challenged in legal proceedings. While Delaware and certain U.S. courts have determined that such exclusive forum provisions are facially valid, a shareholder may nevertheless seek to bring a claim in a venue other than those designated in the exclusive forum provisions, and there can be no assurance that such provisions will be enforced by a court in those other jurisdictions. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in our securities shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to these provisions; however, we note that investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Amended Articles provide that the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

These exclusive forum provisions may limit a shareholders ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum of its choosing for disputes with us or our directors or other employees which may discourage lawsuits against us, our directors, officers and employees.

Risks Relating to Regulation

Future resales of the Ordinary Shares issued in connection with the Business Combination may cause the market price of the Ordinary Shares to drop significantly, even if Cellebrite’s business is doing well.

In connection with the Business Combination, each of Cellebrite, TWC and certain Cellebrite shareholders entered into the Sponsor Support Agreement. Pursuant to such Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor has agreed that it shall not transfer 55.6% of its Lock-up Shares. Pursuant to its terms, if at any time between the Closing Date and the five year anniversary of the Closing Date the volume weighted average price of Ordinary Shares is over any 20 trading days within any 30 trading days period greater than the applicable price per share, that portion of Sponsor’s Lock-up Shares are released from the lock-up. See the section of this prospectus titled “Vesting, Lock-up Periods and Registration Rights.”

Further, concurrently with the Closing, the Sponsor entered into the Investor Rights Agreement, which provided the Sponsor and the other parties thereto with customary demand registration rights and piggy-back registration rights with respect to registration statements filed by Cellebrite. See the section of this prospectus titled “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Cellebrite — Investor Rights Agreement.”

Upon expiration of the applicable lock-up period and upon the effectiveness of any registration statement Cellebrite filed pursuant to the above-referenced Investor Rights Agreement, in a registered offering of securities pursuant to the Securities Act or otherwise in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the Cellebrite shareholders may sell large amounts of Ordinary Shares in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, which could have the effect of increasing the volatility in the trading price of the Ordinary Shares or putting significant downward pressure on the price of the Ordinary Shares. Further, sales of Ordinary Shares upon expiration of the applicable lockup period could encourage short sales by market participants. Generally, short selling means selling a

security, contract or commodity not owned by the seller. The seller is committed to eventually purchase the financial instrument previously sold. Short sales are used to capitalize on an expected decline in the security’s price. As such, short sales of Ordinary Shares could have a tendency to depress the price of the Ordinary Shares, which could increase the potential for short sales.

We cannot predict the size of future issuances of Ordinary Shares or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of Ordinary Shares will have on the market price of the Ordinary Shares. Sales of substantial amounts of Ordinary Shares (including those shares issued in connection with the Business Combination), or the perception that such sales could occur, may materially and adversely affect prevailing market prices of Ordinary Shares.

TWC and Cellebrite may be materially adversely affected by negative publicity related to the Business Combination and in connection with other matters.

From time to time, political and public sentiment in connection with the Business Combination and in connection with other matters could result in a significant amount of adverse press coverage and other adverse public statements affecting TWC and Cellebrite. Adverse press coverage and other negative publicity, whether or not driven by political or public sentiment, may also result in investigations by regulators, legislators and law enforcement officials or ultimately in legal claims. Responding to these investigations and lawsuits, regardless of the ultimate outcome of the proceeding, can divert the time and effort of senior management from the management of TWC’s and Cellebrite’s respective businesses. Addressing any adverse publicity, governmental scrutiny or enforcement or other legal proceedings is time consuming and expensive and, regardless of the factual basis for the assertions being made, can have a negative impact on the reputation of TWC and Cellebrite, on the morale and performance of their employees and on their relationships with regulators. It may also have an adverse impact on their ability to take timely advantage of various business and market opportunities. The direct and indirect effects of negative publicity, and the demands of responding to and addressing it, may have a material adverse effect on TWC’s and Cellebrite’s respective businesses, financial condition and results of operations.

As a “foreign private issuer” under applicable securities laws and regulations, Cellebrite is permitted to, and may, file less or different information with the SEC than a company incorporated in the United States, and will follow certain home country governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements applicable to U.S. issuers.

Cellebrite is considered a “foreign private issuer” under the Exchange Act and is therefore exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act. Moreover, Cellebrite is not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or within the same time frames as U.S. issuers with securities registered under the Exchange Act. Cellebrite is not required to comply with Regulation FD, which imposes restrictions on the selective disclosure of material information to shareholders. In addition, Cellebrite’s officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules under the Exchange Act with respect to their purchases and sales of Cellebrite’s securities. Accordingly, if you hold Cellebrite’s securities, you may receive less or different information about Cellebrite than you may have received about TWC or that you would receive about a U.S. issuer.

In addition, as a “foreign private issuer” whose Ordinary Shares are listed on Nasdaq, Cellebrite is permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices in lieu of certain Nasdaq requirements. A “foreign private issuer” must disclose in its annual reports filed with the SEC each Nasdaq requirement with which it does not comply, followed by a description of its applicable home country practice. Cellebrite currently intends to follow the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq. However, Cellebrite cannot make any assurances that it will continue to follow such corporate governance requirements in the future, and may therefore in the future, rely on available Nasdaq exemptions that would allow Cellebrite to follow its home country practice. Unlike the requirements of Nasdaq, there are currently no mandatory corporate governance requirements in Israel that would require Cellebrite to (i) have a majority of its board of directors be independent, (ii) establish a nominating/governance committee, or (iii) hold regular executive sessions where only independent directors may be present. Such Israeli home country practices may afford less protection to holders of Cellebrite Shares.

Cellebrite could lose its status as a “foreign private issuer” under applicable securities laws and regulations if more than 50% of Cellebrite’s outstanding voting securities become directly or indirectly held of record by U.S. holders and any one of the following is true: (i) the majority of Cellebrite’s directors or executive officers are U.S. citizens or residents; (ii) more than 50% of Cellebrite’s assets are located in the United States; or (iii) Cellebrite’s business is administered principally in the United States. If Cellebrite loses its status as a “foreign private issuer” in the future, it will no longer be exempt from the rules described above and, among other things, will be required to file periodic reports and annual and quarterly financial statements as if it were a company incorporated in the United States. If this were to happen, Cellebrite would likely incur substantial costs in fulfilling these additional regulatory requirements and members of Cellebrite’s management would likely have to divert time and resources from other responsibilities to ensuring these additional regulatory requirements are fulfilled.

Cellebrite is an “emerging growth company” and as a result of the reduced disclosure and governance requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, Ordinary Shares may be less attractive to investors.

Cellebrite is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act, and it intends to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Cellebrite cannot predict if investors will find Ordinary Shares less attractive because it will rely on these exemptions, including delaying adoption of new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation. If some investors find Ordinary Shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market and its stock price may be more volatile. Cellebrite may take advantage of these reporting exemptions until it is no longer an “emerging growth company.” Cellebrite will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of the IPO, (b) in which it has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which it is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of Ordinary Shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last day of the second fiscal quarter of such fiscal year, and (2) the date on which it has issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.

The process of taking a company public by means of a business combination with a special purpose acquisition company is different from taking a company public through an IPO and may create risks for our unaffiliated investors.

An IPO involves a company engaging underwriters to purchase its shares and resell them to the public. An underwritten offering imposes statutory liability on the underwriters for material misstatements or omissions contained in the registration statement unless they are able to sustain the burden of providing that they did not know and could not reasonably have discovered such material misstatements or omissions. This is referred to as a “due diligence” defense and results in the underwriters undertaking a detailed review of an IPO company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Going public via a business combination with a SPAC does not involve any underwriters and may therefore result in less careful vetting of information that is presented to the public.

In addition, going public via a business combination with a SPAC does not involve a book-building process as is the case in an IPO. In any IPO, the initial value of a company is set by investors who indicate the price at which they are prepare to purchase shares from the underwriters. In the case of a business combination involving a SPAC, the value of the target company is established by means of negotiations between the target company, the SPAC and, in many cases, “PIPE” investors who agree to purchase shares at the time of the business combination. The process of establishing the value of a target company in a SPAC business combination may be less effective than an IPO bookbuilding process and also does not reflect events that may have occurred between the date of the business combination agreement and the closing of the transaction. In addition, IPOs are frequently oversubscribed resulting in additional potential demand for shares in the aftermarket following the IPO. There is no comparable process of generating investor demand in connection with business combination between a target company and a SPAC, which may result in lower demand for the surviving company’s shares after closing, which could in turn, decrease liquidity and trading prices as well as increase share price volatility.

Risks Related to Ownership of the Ordinary Shares

The IRS may not agree that Cellebrite should be treated as a non-U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Although Cellebrite is incorporated and tax resident in Israel, the IRS may assert that it should be treated as a U.S. corporation (and therefore a U.S. tax resident) for U.S. federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 7874 of the Code. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, a corporation is generally considered a U.S. “domestic” corporation (or U.S. tax resident) if it is organized in the United States, and a corporation is generally considered a “foreign” corporation (or non-U.S. tax resident) if it is not a U.S. corporation. Because Cellebrite is an entity incorporated and tax resident in Israel, it would generally be classified as a foreign corporation (or non-U.S. tax resident) under these rules. Section 7874 of the Code provides an exception under which a foreign incorporated and foreign tax resident entity may, in certain circumstances, be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

As more fully described in the section titled “Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment of Cellebrite — Tax Residence of Cellebrite for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes”, based on the terms of the Merger and certain factual assumptions, Cellebrite is not intended to be treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Code Section 7874 after the Merger. However, the application of Section 7874 of the Code is complex, is subject to detailed regulations (the application of which is uncertain in various respects, could be impacted by changes in such U.S. Treasury regulations with possible retroactive effect), and is subject to certain factual uncertainties. Accordingly, potential application of Section 7874 is inherently uncertain and there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge the status of Cellebrite as a foreign corporation under Code Section 7874 or that such challenge would not be sustained by a court.

If the IRS were to successfully challenge under Code Section 7874 Cellebrite’s status as a foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, Cellebrite and certain Cellebrite shareholders would be subject to significant adverse tax consequences, including a higher effective corporate income tax rate on Cellebrite and future withholding taxes on certain Cellebrite shareholders, depending on the application of any income tax treaty that might apply to reduce such withholding taxes. In particular, holders of Ordinary Shares and Warrants would be treated as holders of stock and warrants of a U.S. corporation.

See “Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment of Cellebrite — Tax Residence of Cellebrite for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes” for a more detailed discussion of the application of Code Section 7874 to the Merger. Investors in Cellebrite should consult their own advisors regarding the application of Code Section 7874 to the Merger.

Code Section 7874 may limit the ability of TWC to use certain tax attributes following the Merger, increase Cellebrite’s U.S. affiliates’ U.S. taxable income or have other adverse consequences to Cellebrite and Cellebrite’s shareholders.

Following the acquisition of a U.S. corporation by a foreign corporation, Code Section 7874 can limit the ability of the acquired U.S. corporation and its U.S. affiliates to use U.S. tax attributes (including net operating losses and certain tax credits) to offset U.S. taxable income resulting from certain transactions, as well as result in certain other adverse tax consequences, even if the acquiring foreign corporation is respected as a foreign corporation for purposes of Code Section 7874. In general, if a foreign corporation acquires, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the properties held directly or indirectly by a U.S. corporation and after the acquisition, the former shareholders of the acquired U.S. corporation hold at least 60% (by either vote or value) but less than 60% (by vote and value) of the shares of the foreign acquiring corporation by reason of holding shares in the acquired U.S. corporation, subject to other requirements, certain adverse tax consequences under Section 7874 of the Code may apply.

If these rules apply to the Merger, Cellebrite and certain of Cellebrite’s shareholders may be subject to adverse tax consequences including, but not limited to, restrictions on the use of tax attributes with respect to “inversion gain” recognized over a 10-year period following the transaction, disqualification of dividends paid from preferential “qualified dividend income” rates and the requirement that any U.S. corporation owned by Cellebrite include as “base erosion payments” that may be subject to a minimum U.S. federal income tax any amounts treated as reductions in gross income paid to certain related foreign persons. Furthermore, certain “disqualified individuals” (including officers and directors of a U.S. corporation) may be subject to an excise tax on certain stock-based compensation held thereby at a rate of 20%.

As more fully described in the section titled “Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment of Cellebrite — Utilization of TWC’s Tax Attributes and Certain Other Adverse Tax Consequences to Cellebrite and Cellebrite’s Shareholders,” based on the terms of the Merger and certain factual assumptions, Cellebrite is not currently intended to be subject to these rules under Code Section 7874 after the Merger. The above determination, however, is subject to detailed regulations (the application of which is uncertain in various respects and could be impacted by future changes in such U.S. Treasury regulations, with possible retroactive effect) and is subject to certain factual uncertainties. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge whether Cellebrite is subject to the above rules or that such a challenge would not be sustained by a court.

However, even if Cellebrite is not subject to the above adverse consequences under Section 7874, Cellebrite may be limited in using its equity to engage in future acquisitions of U.S. corporations over a 36-month period following the Merger. If Cellebrite were to be treated as acquiring substantially all of the assets of a U.S. corporation within a 36-month period after the Merger, the Section 7874 Regulations (as defined in “Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment of Cellebrite — Tax Residence of Cellebrite for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes”) would exclude certain shares of Cellebrite attributable to the Merger for purposes of determining the Section 7874 Percentage of that subsequent acquisition, making it more likely that Code Section 7874 will apply to such subsequent acquisition.

See “Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment of Cellebrite — Utilization of TWC’s Tax Attributes and Certain Other Adverse Tax Consequences to Cellebrite and Cellebrite’s Shareholders” for a more detailed discussion of the application of Code Section 7874 to the Merger. Investors in Cellebrite should consult their own advisors regarding the application of Code Section 7874 to the Merger.

Risks Related to the Israeli Tax Treatment of Cellebrite and the Merger

If we do not qualify for Israeli tax benefits, our effective tax rate on our business income and the Israeli withholding tax on distributions of dividends by us to our shareholders may be higher than expected.

Cellebrite believes that it is currently entitled to claim certain tax benefits in Israel, including reduced corporate tax rates, reduced withholding tax rates with respect to dividend distributions and higher depreciation rates. These tax benefits require us to satisfy each tax year certain conditions that included in the provisions of Israeli tax laws. There can be no assurances that we will qualify for such tax benefits in any given year. If we do not qualify for such tax benefits, the effective Israeli tax rate on our business income and the withholding tax rate with respect to dividend that we will distribute to our shareholders may be higher than we expect.

We may be subject to deferred Israeli corporate tax liability with respect to certain payments out of income that was previously exempt from Israeli corporate tax.

We have previously generated income from a Beneficiary Enterprise that was exempt from Israeli corporate tax. If we pay dividends out of previously-exempt income we will be subject to deferred Israeli corporate tax upon payment. In addition, payments pursuant to certain transactions in which we may participate may be considered a deemed distribution for this purpose, including certain payments made, whether directly or indirectly, to certain related parties or controlling shareholders (including entities controlled by such controlling shareholders), payments in liquidation and consideration paid to our shareholders in a buyback of shares.

We may be required to pay Israeli taxes, including by way of withholding from our shareholders, as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, and if we do not receive the Transaction Tax Ruling exempting the Indemnified TWC Parties from certain taxes we may be required to indemnify the Indemnified TWC Parties for such Israeli withholding tax liability.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement we have agreed to file and have filed an application to receive the Transaction Tax Ruling from the Israel Tax Authority, which shall seek to determine (i) that none of the Indemnified TWC Parties are subject to Israeli tax with respect to receipt of Ordinary Shares and/or Warrants and/or any cash amount from the Trust Account or with respect to the Per Share Cash Consideration, Per Share Equity Consideration, the Price Adjustment Shares or the Additional Dividend, (ii) the tax treatment of the issuance of the Price Adjustment Shares and the Additional Dividend for Israeli Tax purposes and (iii) that the Capital Restructuring is not subject to Israeli withholding Tax.

We may be required to pay Israeli taxes, including by way of withholding, regardless of whether the Transaction Tax Ruling is obtained or not. If the Transaction Tax Ruling shall not be obtained in a form and substance reasonably satisfactory to TWC, we may make an irrevocable written undertaking to fully indemnify and hold harmless (on a grossed up basis, to account for their related tax liability and for their Cellebrite holdings) the Indemnified TWC Parties from any Israeli tax actually incurred by such Indemnified TWC Parties which should have been exempted by the Transaction Tax Ruling and from any Israeli tax actually incurred by Cellebrite as a result of the Capital Restructuring, the Additional Dividend and Price Adjustment Shares (including from all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney costs, associated with such tax, including in defending such matters).

General Risk Factors

Joint ventures, partnerships, and strategic alliances may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and prospects.

We expect to continue to enter into joint ventures, partnerships, and strategic alliances as part of our long-term business strategy. Joint ventures, partnerships, strategic alliances, and other similar arrangements involve significant investments of both time and resources, and there can be no assurances that they will be successful. They may present significant challenges and risks, including that they may not advance our business strategy, we may get an unsatisfactory return on our investment or lose some or all of our investment, they may distract management and divert resources from our core business, they may expose us to unexpected liabilities, or we may choose a partner that does not cooperate as we expect them to and that fails to meet its obligations or that has economic, business, or legal interests or goals that are inconsistent with ours. For example, we partner with various resellers who coordinate the provision of our solutions to the end customer. We believe this arrangement can offer strategic advantages, but it does increase our dependence on third parties to achieve our objectives.

Entry into certain joint ventures, partnerships, or strategic alliances now or in the future may be subject to government regulation, including review by U.S. or foreign government entities related to foreign direct investment. If a joint venture or similar arrangement were subject to regulatory review, such regulatory review might limit our ability to enter into the desired strategic alliance and thus our ability to carry out our long-term business strategy.

As our joint ventures, partnerships, and strategic alliances come to an end or terminate, we may be unable to renew or replace them on comparable terms, or at all. Each of our agreements with resellers have terms of just one year, and so these agreements are frequently up for renewal or termination. When we enter into joint ventures, partnerships, and strategic alliances, our partners may be required to undertake some portion of sales, marketing, implementation solutions, engineering solutions, or software configuration that we would otherwise provide. In such cases, our partner may be less successful than we would have otherwise been absent the arrangement. In the event we enter into an arrangement with a particular partner, we may be less likely (or unable) to work with one or more direct competitors of our partner with which we would have worked absent the arrangement. We may have interests that are different from our joint venture partners and/or which may affect our ability to successfully collaborate with a given partner. Similarly, one or more of our partners in a joint venture, platform partnership, or strategic alliance may independently suffer a bankruptcy or other economic hardship that negatively affects its ability to continue as a going concern or successfully perform on its obligation under the arrangement. In addition, customer satisfaction with our solutions provided in connection with these arrangements may be less favorable than anticipated, negatively impacting anticipated revenue growth and results of operations of arrangements in question. Further, some of our strategic partners offer competing solutions or work with our competitors. As a result of these and other factors, many of the companies with which we have joint ventures, partnerships, or strategic alliances may choose to pursue alternative technologies and develop alternative solutions in addition to or in lieu of our platform, either on their own or in collaboration with others, including our competitors. If we are unsuccessful in establishing or maintaining our relationships with these partners, our ability to compete in a given marketplace or to grow our revenue would be impaired, and our results of operations may suffer. Even if we are successful in establishing and maintaining these relationships with our partners, we cannot assure you that these relationships will result in increased customer usage of our platform or increased revenue.

Further, winding down joint ventures, partnerships, or other strategic alliances can result in additional costs, litigation, and negative publicity. Any of these events could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and growth prospects.

We may acquire or invest in companies and technologies, which may divert our management’s attention, and result in additional dilution to our shareholders. We may be unable to integrate acquired businesses and technologies successfully or achieve the expected benefits of such acquisitions or investments.

As part of our business strategy, we have engaged in strategic transactions in the past and expect to evaluate and consider potential strategic transactions, including acquisitions of, or investments in, businesses, technologies, products, services and other assets in the future. For example, in 2020 we acquired BlackBag Technologies Inc., a United States-based seller of computer forensic acquisition and analysis solutions. While this acquisition has thus far gone smoothly, this acquisition or any future acquisition, investment or business relationship may result in unforeseen risks, operating difficulties and expenditures, including the following:

•        An acquisition may negatively affect our financial results because it may require us to incur charges or assume substantial debt or other liabilities, may cause adverse tax consequences or unfavorable accounting treatment, may expose us to claims and disputes by third parties, including intellectual property claims and disputes, or may not generate sufficient financial return to offset additional costs and expenses related to the acquisition;

•        Potential goodwill impairment charges related to acquisitions;

•        Costs and potential difficulties associated with the requirement to test and assimilate the internal control processes of the acquired business;

•        We may encounter difficulties or unforeseen expenditures assimilating or integrating the businesses, technologies, infrastructure, solutions, personnel, or operations of the acquired companies, particularly if the key personnel of the acquired company choose not to work for us or if we are unable to retain key personnel, if their technology is not easily adapted to work with ours, or if we have difficulty retaining the customers of any acquired business due to changes in ownership, management, or otherwise;

•        We may not realize the expected benefits of the acquisition;

•        An acquisition may disrupt our ongoing business, divert resources, increase our expenses, and distract our management;

•        An acquisition may result in a delay or reduction of customer purchases for both us and the company acquired due to customer uncertainty about continuity and effectiveness of service from either company;

•        The potential impact on relationships with existing customers, vendors, and distributors as business partners as a result of acquiring another company or business that competes with or otherwise is incompatible with those existing relationships;

•        The potential that our due diligence of the acquired company or business does not identify significant problems or liabilities, or that we underestimate the costs and effects of identified liabilities;

•        Exposure to litigation or other claims in connection with, or inheritance of claims or litigation risk as a result of, an acquisition, including but not limited to claims from former employees, customers, or other third parties, which may differ from or be more significant than the risks our business faces;

•        We may encounter difficulties in, or may be unable to, successfully sell any acquired solutions;

•        An acquisition may involve the entry into geographic or business markets in which we have little or no prior experience or where competitors have stronger market positions;

•        An acquisition may require us to comply with additional laws and regulations, or to engage in substantial remediation efforts to cause the acquired company to comply with applicable laws or regulations, or result in liabilities resulting from the acquired company’s failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations;

•        Our use of cash to pay for an acquisition would limit other potential uses for our cash;

•        If we incur debt to fund such acquisition, such debt may subject us to material restrictions on our ability to conduct our business as well as financial maintenance covenants; and

•        To the extent that we issue a significant amount of equity securities in connection with future acquisitions, existing shareholders may be diluted and earnings per share may decrease.

The occurrence of any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Moreover, we cannot assure you that we would not be exposed to unknown liabilities.

Our international operations expose us to business, political and economic risks that could cause our operating results to suffer.

We intend to continue to make efforts to increase our international operations and anticipate that international sales will continue to account for a significant portion of our revenue. These international operations are subject to certain risks and costs, including the difficulty and expense of administering business and compliance abroad, differences in business practices, compliance with domestic and foreign laws (including without limitation domestic and international import and export laws and regulations and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, including potential violations by acts of agents or other intermediaries), costs related to localizing solutions for foreign markets, costs related to translating and distributing software solutions in a timely manner, costs related to increased financial accounting and reporting burdens and complexities, longer sales and collection cycles for accounts receivables, failure of laws or courts to protect our intellectual property rights adequately, local competition, and economic or political instability and uncertainties, including inflation, recession, interest rate fluctuations and actual or anticipated military or geopolitical conflicts. In addition, regulatory limitations regarding the repatriation of earnings may adversely affect the transfer of cash earned from foreign operations. Significant international sales may also expose us to greater risk from political and economic instability, unexpected changes in Israeli, U.S. or other governmental policies concerning import and export of goods and technology, regulatory requirements, tariffs and other trade barriers. Additionally, international earnings may be subject to taxation by more than one jurisdiction, which may materially adversely affect our effective tax rate. Also, international expansion may be difficult, time consuming, and costly. These risks and their potential impacts may be exacerbated by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. See “— Risks Related to Cellebrite’s Business and Industry — The global COVID-19 pandemic could negatively impact our business, installations, trainings, and general operations.” As a result, if revenue from international operations do not offset the expenses of establishing and maintaining foreign operations, our business, operating results and financial condition will suffer.

If our goodwill or intangible assets become impaired, we may be required to record a significant charge to earnings.

We have acquired and may acquire other companies and intangible assets, and we may not realize all the economic benefit from those acquisitions, which could cause an impairment of goodwill or intangibles. We review our amortizable intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually. If such goodwill is deemed to be impaired, an impairment loss equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the assets would be recognized. Events which might indicate impairment include, but are not limited to, declines in stock price market capitalization or cash flows, adverse cost factors, deteriorating financial performance, strategic decisions made in response to economic, market and competitive conditions, the impact of the economic environment on us and our customer base, and/or relevant events such as changes in management, key personnel, litigation or customers.

We may be required to record a significant charge in our financial statements during the period in which any impairment of our goodwill or intangible assets is determined, which would negatively affect our results of operations.

Our provision for income taxes and effective income tax rate may vary significantly and may adversely affect our results of operations and cash resources.

Significant judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes. Various internal and external factors may have favorable or unfavorable effects on our future provision for income taxes, income taxes receivable, and our effective income tax rate. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes in tax laws, regulations and/or rates, results of audits by tax authorities, changing interpretations of existing tax laws or regulations, changes in estimates of prior years’ items, the impact of transactions we complete, future levels of research and development spending, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, transfer pricing adjustments, changes in the overall mix of income among the different jurisdictions in which we operate, and changes in overall levels of income before taxes. Furthermore, new accounting pronouncements or new interpretations of existing accounting pronouncements, and/or any internal restructuring initiatives we may implement from time to time to streamline our operations, can have a material impact on our effective income tax rate.

Tax examinations are often complex as tax authorities may disagree with the treatment of items reported by us and our transfer pricing methodology based upon our limited risk distributor model, the result of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Although we believe our estimates are reasonable, the ultimate outcome with respect to the taxes we owe may differ from the amounts recorded in our financial statements, and this difference may materially affect our financial position and financial results in the period or periods for which such determination is made.

We are subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, and similar laws, and non-compliance with such laws can subject us to criminal penalties or significant fines, harm and reputation, and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and growth prospects.

We are or will be subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering and financial and economic sanctions laws and regulations in various jurisdictions in which we conduct or in the future may conduct activities, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, and other anti-corruption laws and regulations. The FCPA and the U.K. Bribery Act 2010 prohibit us and our officers, directors, employees and business partners acting on our behalf, including agents, from corruptly offering, promising, authorizing or providing anything of value to a “foreign official” for the purposes of influencing official decisions or obtaining or retaining business or otherwise obtaining favorable treatment. The FCPA also requires companies to make and keep books, records and accounts that accurately reflect transactions and dispositions of assets and to maintain a system of adequate internal accounting controls. The U.K. Bribery Act also prohibits non-governmental “commercial” bribery and soliciting or accepting bribes. A violation of these laws or regulations could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and reputation.

Non-compliance with anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering or financial and economic sanctions laws could subject us to whistleblower complaints, adverse media coverage, investigations, and severe administrative, civil and criminal sanctions, collateral consequences, remedial measures and legal expenses, all of which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and reputation. In addition, changes in economic sanctions laws in the future could adversely impact our business and investments in Ordinary Shares.

Our pricing structures for our solutions may change from time to time.

We offer our solutions at a higher price point than many of our competitors, and this may change in the future. We expect that we may change our pricing model from time to time, including as a result of competition, global economic conditions, general reductions in our customers’ spending levels, pricing studies, or changes in how our solutions are broadly consumed. Similarly, as we introduce new, or as a result of the evolution of our existing solutions, we may have difficulty determining the appropriate price structure for our solutions. In addition, as new and existing competitors introduce new solutions that compete with ours, or revise their pricing structures, we may be unable to attract new customers at the same price or based on the same pricing model as we have used historically. Moreover, as we continue to target selling our solutions to larger organizations, these larger organizations may demand substantial price concessions. In addition, we may need to change pricing policies to accommodate government pricing guidelines for our contracts with federal, state, local, and foreign governments and government agencies. If we are unable to modify or develop pricing models and strategies that are attractive to existing and prospective customers, while enabling us to significantly grow our sales and revenue relative to our associated costs and expenses in a reasonable period of time, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely impacted.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be impaired.

As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the rules and regulations of the listing standards of Nasdaq. We expect that the requirements of these rules and regulations will continue to increase our legal, accounting, and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming, and costly, and place significant strain on our personnel, systems, and resources. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. We are continuing to develop and refine our disclosure controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we will file

with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed in reports under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive and financial officers. We may also need to improve our internal control over financial reporting. Some members of our management team have limited or no experience managing a publicly traded company, interacting with public company investors, and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies, and we have limited accounting and financial reporting personnel and other resources with which to address our internal controls and related procedures, including complying with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act that we will eventually be required to include in our annual reports filed with the SEC. We may need to hire and successfully integrate additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate company experience and technical accounting knowledge. In order to maintain and improve the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, we have expended, and anticipate that we will continue to expend, significant resources, including accounting-related costs and significant management oversight.

Our current controls and any new controls that we develop may become inadequate because of changes in conditions in our business. Further, we may identify in the future deficiencies in our controls. Any failure to develop or maintain effective controls or any difficulties encountered in their implementation or improvement could harm our results of operations or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations and may result in a restatement of our financial statements for prior periods. Any failure to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting also could adversely affect the results of periodic management evaluations and annual independent registered public accounting firm attestation reports. Ineffective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial and other information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of Ordinary Shares. In addition, if we are unable to continue to meet these requirements, we may not be able to remain listed on Nasdaq. We are not currently required to comply with the SEC rules that implement Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and are therefore not required to make a formal assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for that purpose. As a public company, we are required to provide an annual management report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting commencing with our second Annual Report on Form 20-F.

Our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting until after we are no longer an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. At such time, our independent registered public accounting firm may issue a report that is adverse in the event it is not satisfied with the level at which our internal control over financial reporting is documented, designed, or operating. Any failure to maintain effective disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting could have a material and adverse effect on our business and results of operations and could cause a decline in the price of Ordinary Shares.

USE OF PROCEEDS

All of the ordinary shares offered by the Selling Securityholders pursuant to this prospectus will be sold by the Selling Securityholders for their respective amounts. We will not receive any of the proceeds from these sales.

We will receive up to an aggregate of approximately $341 million from the exercise of the warrants, assuming the exercise in full of all such warrants for cash. We expect to use the net proceeds from the exercise of the warrants for general corporate purposes, which may include acquisitions and other business opportunities and the repayment of indebtedness. Our management will have broad discretion over the use of proceeds from the exercise of the warrants.

There is no assurance that the holders of the warrants will elect to exercise any or all of the warrants. To the extent that the warrants are exercised on a “cashless basis,” the amount of cash we would receive from the exercise of the warrants will decrease.

MARKET PRICE OF OUR SECURITIES

Our Ordinary Shares began trading on The Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “CLBT” August 30, 2021. On October 4, 2021, the closing sale prices of our Ordinary Shares were $8.99. As of October 4, 2021, there were approximately 66 holders of record of our Ordinary Shares. Such numbers do not include beneficial owners holding our securities through nominee names.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Introduction

Additionally, each option and restricted stock unit of Cellebrite remains outstanding, subject to adjusted terms to reflect the effect of the Stock Split on Cellebrite Ordinary Shares.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

1.      Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Transaction and has been prepared for informational purposes only.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 are based on the historical financial statements of Cellebrite and TWC.

The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based on information currently available, and assumptions and estimates underlying the unaudited pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes.

Cellebrite and TWC did not have any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, assumes that the Business Combination occurred on June 30, 2021. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 presents pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been completed on January 1, 2020.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 has been prepared using, and should be read in conjunction with, the following:

•        TWC’s unaudited condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, and the related notes for the six months ended June 30, 2021, included elsewhere in this prospectus; and

•        Cellebrite’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, and the related notes for the six months ended June 30, 2021 included elsewhere in this prospectus.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 has been prepared using, and should be read in conjunction with, the following:

•        TWC’s unaudited condensed statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus; and

•        Cellebrite’s unaudited consolidated interim statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 included elsewhere in this prospectus.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 has been prepared using, and should be read in conjunction with, the following:

•        TWC’s audited statement of operations for the period from July 20, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, as restated, and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus; and

•        Cellebrite’s audited consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus.

Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not give effect to any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings, or cost savings that may be associated with the Business Combination.

The pro forma adjustments reflecting the consummation of the Business Combination are based on certain currently available information and certain assumptions and methodologies that TWC believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited condensed pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised as additional information becomes available and is evaluated.

Therefore, it is likely that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments, and it is possible the difference may be material. TWC believes that these assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the Business Combination based on information available to management at the time and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position would have been had the Business Combination taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of Cellebrite. They should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of TWC and Cellebrite.

2.      Accounting Policies

Management is performing a comprehensive review of the two entities’ accounting policies. As a result of the review, management may identify differences between the accounting policies of the two entities which, when conformed, could have a material impact on the financial statements of Cellebrite. Based on its initial analysis, management did not identify any differences that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.

3.      Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Business Combination and has been prepared for informational purposes only. The pro forma financial information reflects transaction related adjustments management believes are necessary to present fairly Cellebrite’s pro forma results of operations and financial position following the closing of the Business Combination and related transactions as of and for the periods indicated.

The unaudited pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share amounts presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations were based upon the number of outstanding Cellebrite Ordinary Shares, assuming the Business Combination occurred on January 1, 2020.

In addition, holders of Cellebrite Ordinary Shares prior to the consummation of the Effective time have the right to receive up to 15,000,000 Cellebrite Ordinary Shares in three equal tranches upon achievement of the Triggering Events; if at any time during the Price Adjustment Period the price of Cellebrite Ordinary Shares will be greater than or equal to $12.50, $15.00 and $17.50, respectively, over any twenty trading days within any thirty trading day period. In the event of a post-Closing change of control transaction involving Cellebrite, any amount of the Price Adjustment not previously issued will be issued and will be entitled to participate in the change of control transaction (the “Price Adjustment Shares”).

In accordance with the Sponsor Support Agreement, the Sponsor Parties agreed to forfeit 1,500,000 out of their 15,000,000 TWC Shares. The remaining Cellebrite Ordinary Shares issued to the Sponsor Parties are subject to vesting criteria; 6,000,000 of the Cellebrite Ordinary Shares automatically vested at the Closing, and the remainder of the Cellebrite Ordinary Shares will vest in three tranches of 3,000,000, 3,000,000 and 1,500,000 Cellebrite Ordinary Shares, upon achievement of the Triggering Events; if at any time during the Price Adjustment Period the price of Cellebrite Ordinary Shares will be greater than or equal to $12.50, $15.00 and $30.00, respectively, over any twenty trading days within any thirty trading day period. In the event of a post-Closing change of control transaction involving Cellebrite, any Restricted Sponsor Shares not previously vested will vest and will be entitled to participate in the change of control transaction (the “Restricted Sponsor Shares”). Upon the expiration of the Price Adjustment Period (a period of seven years), any unvested Cellebrite Shares that have not vested as of such time will be forfeited. Each Sponsor Party shall be entitled to vote its unvested Restricted Sponsor Shares and receive dividends and other distribution, and to have all other economic rights, in each case, with respect to such Restricted Sponsor Shares while they remain unvested.

The Restricted Sponsor Shares and the Cellebrite Price Adjustment Shares are classified as a liability in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet and vest or issued upon the Triggering Events, during the Price Adjustment Periods, as outlined in the Sponsor Support agreement and the Business Combination Agreement Post-Business Combination, these liabilities will be remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period and subsequent changes in the fair value post-Business Combination will be recognized in the combined company’s statement of operations.

(O)    Reflects the number of Cellebrite Ordinary Shares issued between June 30, 2021 and the Closing Date.

(P)    Represents the effect of the Stock Split, calculated by subtracting the product of the aggregate amount of Cellebrite Ordinary Shares following the Preferred Share Conversion (174,051,211, see L) and the Stock Split Multiple (0.96) from the aggregate amount of Cellebrite Ordinary Shares following the Preferred Share Conversion.

(AA) Represents interest earned on money in the Trust Account that has been cancelled.

(BB) Represents transaction fees attributed to the issuance of Cellebrite Warrants (see G).

4.      Earnings (loss) per share

Net earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the historical weighted average shares outstanding, and the issuance of additional shares in connection with the Business Combination, assuming the shares were outstanding since January 1, 2020. As the Business Combination is being reflected as if it had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Business Combination have been outstanding for the entire period presented.

The unaudited pro forma earnings (loss) per share has been prepared for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020:

____________

(a)      TWC: calculated as the sum of 6,924,699 Cellebrite Ordinary Shares issued to TWC Public Stockholders and 6,000,000 Cellebrite Ordinary Shares issued to the Sponsor Stockholders.

(b)      Cellebrite Ordinary Shareholders: calculated as Cellebrite’s weighted average number of ordinary shares used in computing basic and diluted net loss per share (125,227,484 and 123,696,624 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 respectively), multiplied by the Stock Split Multiple at a ratio of 1:0.96. The number of Cellebrite’s weighted average number of ordinary shares used in computing basic and diluted net loss per share post-split is 125,227,485 and 123,696,624 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, respectively.

(c)      Cellebrite Preferred Shareholders: calculated as the number of Cellebrite Preferred Shares (41,459,369), multiplied by the Stock Split at a ratio of 1:0.96. The number of Cellebrite Preferred Shares post-split is 39,779,261.

(d)      Restricted Sponsor Shares: the holders of the Restricted Sponsor Share are entitled to vote their unvested shares, receive dividends, and to have all other economic rights, with respect to their Restricted Sponsor Shares while they remain unvested. As they have rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends, they are considered participating securities, and were therefore included in the basic pro forma weighted average shares outstanding. Following the Business Combination, these shares will be treated as a different class than the Cellebrite Ordinary Shares, and the earnings (loss) per share will be calculated using the two-class method.

(e)      Cellebrite options: the dilutive effect of the vested and unvested options of Cellebrite. Including these options in the earnings per share calculation for the year ended December 31, 2020 would be anti-dilutive and they have therefore been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the section titled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. The following discussion and analysis contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. When reviewing the discussion below, you should keep in mind the substantial risks and uncertainties that could impact our business. In particular, we encourage you to review the risks and uncertainties described in the section titled “Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this prospectus. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements contained in this report or implied by past results and trends. our fiscal year ends on December 31. Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any period in the future, and our interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results we expect for the full fiscal year or any other period.

Overview

We are the leading provider of digital intelligence (“DI”), delivering a platform of software and services for legally sanctioned investigations. Our mission is to protect and save lives, accelerate justice and preserve privacy in global communities. Our DI platform allows users to collect, review, analyze, and manage digital data across the investigative lifecycle. Our platform of investigation solutions extracts digital data, delivers the data as digital evidence, and makes the evidence actionable. As of the date of this prospectus, our solutions were utilized in millions of investigations globally. Our solutions are used in a variety of cases including child exploitation, homicide, anti-terror, border control, sexual crimes, human trafficking, corporate security, and civil litigation.

Law enforcement investigative units are often using inefficient processes and manual workflows to prosecute investigations. Large amounts of data are collected and processed with limited technology and ineffective home-grown solutions, contributing to a lack of collaboration between departments, three-month average investigation backlogs and less than 50% clearance rates. Our technology enables faster data collection, fusing and enriching of data for smarter analysis, and brings the ability to collaborate efficiently across various investigation functions in real-time.

We deploy our DI platform through a subscription which is recognized ratably over the subscription term with a portion of revenue, related to the term-based license portion, recognized upfront; perpetual license, which is recognized upfront; hardware, which represents sale of accessories, proprietary and third-party devices on which our software is installed; and services, which are recognized over the term of the service and in certain cases upon the fulfillment of the performance obligation. Historically we generated a majority of our revenue from perpetual license agreements and their related subscription, however, we have extended our business model to offer subscription licenses. As a result, we expect the decrease of the sale of perpetual licenses to continue.

Our software revenue is derived from solutions we offer across the investigative lifecycle including our Collect & Review, analyze and manage digital data. Much of our growth is derived from our land-and-expand strategy within our deeply entrenched customer base. Our services revenue is derived from Training Academy delivering best-in-class training and certification to thousands of investigation practitioners every year, Advanced Services, providing customers with a lawful device advanced access services and other professional services. We utilize both a direct sales force and resellers to reach our customers, which include approximately 5,000 federal, state and local government agencies and approximately 1,700 enterprise companies and service providers as of December 31, 2020.

Our DI software platform allows users to Collect & Review, analyze and manage digital data sources across the investigative lifecycle. In Collect & Review solutions, Cellebrite UFED has become the standard in investigations. UFED enables collecting, decoding and preserving data from over 31,000 different digital data profiles. It is the tool of choice for over 42,000 individuals in over 140 countries. In Analyze solutions, Cellebrite’s Pathfinder helps investigators reach conclusions faster through automated data ingestion, normalization, consolidation, and visualization of a suspects’ journey across their complete digital signature. Pathfinder eliminates time-consuming and manual review of digital data. It is a force multiplier that uses AI and machine learning (“ML”) algorithms to automatically surface formative leads and actionable insights. In Manage solutions, Cellebrite Commander enables collaboration across investigation functions to reduce manual processes. It manages all deployed licenses, permission & access control, provides standard operating procedures (“SOP”) enforcement, as well as software version control and case dashboards.

In the private sector, our solutions help enterprises customers and service providers protect data and information for purposes of internal investigations, eDiscovery and litigation support, compliance and corporate security. Sample use cases include IP theft, employee misconduct and investigation of internal data security incidents.

Revenue was $112.5 million and $84.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, representing a period-over-period increase of 33%. Revenue was $194.9 million and $171.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, representing a period-over-period increase of 13.4%. The increase in revenue period over period was driven by the following: (i) strong continued sales to existing customer base; and (ii) adoption of our leading Collect & Review offering in a term license model.

Net income of $11.4 million was generated and a net loss of $5.3 million was incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, representing a period-over-period increase of $16.7 million. Net income of $5.8 million was generated and a net loss of $1.9 million was incurred for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, representing a period-over-period increase of $7.7 million. This growth primarily reflects the continued growth of our revenue and relatively smaller increase in operating expenses. Our growth is expected to also be supported by our continued investment in scaling up our business. Our Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 2021 and 2020 was $24.7 million and $6.6 million, respectively. Our Adjusted EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were $31.1 million and $19.3 million, respectively.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Impact

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” and on March 11, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19 include restrictions on travel, quarantines in certain areas and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. COVID-19 and actions taken to mitigate its spread have had and are expected to continue to have an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries. In December 2020, the United States declared a State of National Emergency due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Many business establishments have closed due to restrictions imposed by the government and many governmental authorities have closed most public establishments. Cellebrite business continues to operate despite the disruption of some business operations.

In mid-March 2020 we moved our operations from our offices to a remote model, allowing employees to work from their homes. Although the various offices were open for work within the limitation of the local laws, most of the year, most of the employees worked remotely. We were well prepared to implement a remote working schedule and implemented on-going training to managers and employees to improve their working routines and deliverables. Our logistics continued operating with no substantial impact on deliveries to customers.

Due to COVID-19, most of the communication with customers has been done remotely. Yet, by leveraging our global presence, we have continued our sales activities in our main markets with the local sales teams, subject only to the local restrictions and not to global travel limitations. Marketing activities were shifted from on-site events to virtual activities. The only offering which was substantially negatively impacted was the instructor-led training classes, as customers were slow to adopt to the remote learning offering. As of May 2021 we see a gradual return to in person activities.

Acquisitions

On February 28, 2020, we completed the acquisition of 100% of the shares of Blackbag Technologies Inc., a U.S. computer forensic solutions company, for total consideration of $33.4 million of which $15.4 million was paid upon closing and the balance will be paid in three annual instalments of $6.0 million each (of which $6.0 million was already paid on February 27, 2021). Out of the $18.0 million of deferred consideration, $13.0 million is subject to attaining certain levels of employee retention and are recognized over two years as compensation expense and $5.0 million are non-contingent future payments included in the base consideration. The acquisition expands our portfolio of DI solutions and allows us to broaden our client relationships. From time to time, we have also undertaken small acquisitions that we do not consider material to our overall business.

Investments.

On June 17, 2019, IGP Saferworld Limited Partnership (“IGP”), an investment vehicle of IGP Capital, a venture capital firm based in Israel, invested $110 million in exchange for Cellebrite Preferred Shares, representing 24.4% of Cellebrite’s outstanding ordinary and Preferred Shares at the time of the investment. Following the transaction, IGP appointed two directors to the Cellebrite Board. The investment agreement also defines certain exit events that IGP can enforce on the shareholders. At the Closing, IGP’s Cellebrite Preferred Shares were converted into Ordinary Shares. At the Closing, IGP also waived its right to receive payment of the accrued preferred dividend and the right to appoint a total of two directors to the Cellebrite Board. Following the Closing, IGP appointed one director to the Cellebrite Board.

Business combination

On April 8, 2021, TWC, Cellebrite and Merger Sub entered into the Business Combination Agreement providing for, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, a business combination between TWC and Cellebrite pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Sub merged with and into TWC at the Effective Time (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), with TWC continuing as the surviving entity and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cellebrite. The Merger closed on August 30, 2021. The Merger was accounted for as a recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Cellebrite has been determined to be the accounting acquirer. The combined entity is the successor SEC registrant, meaning that Cellebrite’s financial statements for previous periods will be disclosed in the registrant’s future periodic reports filed with the SEC.

As a consequence of the Merger, the Ordinary Shares are registered under the Exchange Act and listed on Nasdaq, and Cellebrite is required to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. Cellebrite expects to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability and Board of Directors related expenses.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

Our historical financial performance has been, and we expect our financial performance in the future to be, driven by our ability to:

•        Increase penetration within existing customers.    We plan to continue to increase penetration within our existing customers with our complete DI platform of software and services and by expanding the breadth of our platform capabilities to provide for continued up-sell and cross-selling opportunities across the DI platform and to new buying centers. We have seen significant ARR dollar-based net retention due to the broad use cases of our platform.

•        Extend our technology and market leadership position.    We intend to maintain our position as a market-leading DI platform through investment in research and development and continued innovation. We expect to focus on expanding the functionality of our DI platform and investing in capabilities that cater customer needs and mode of operation. Additionally, we plan to promote our offerings to address more private sector use cases. We believe this strategy expands our TAM, enables new growth opportunities and allows us to continue to deliver differentiated high-value outcomes to our customers.

•        Grow our customer base.    We intend to drive new customer growth in the private sector by focusing on enterprise accounts and introducing offerings to address customers’ needs (for example, our additional remote collection offering). We are targeting specific use cases among enterprises. For example: infringement of patents is a major concern for pharmaceuticals companies, resolution of data corporate security incidents is a major concern for banks, and IP theft to establish similar solutions is a concern for retailers. We plan to tailor our solutions to meet more use cases in enterprise and drive customer growth.

Key Metrics

In addition to our U.S. GAAP financial information, we monitor the following key metrics and non-GAAP financial measure in order to help us measure and evaluate the effectiveness of our operations:

Annual recurring revenue:    Annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) is defined as the annualized value of active term-based subscription license contracts and maintenance contracts related to perpetual licenses in effect at the end of that period. Subscription license contracts and maintenance contracts for perpetual licenses are annualized by multiplying the revenue of the last month of the period by 12.

ARR dollar-based net retention rate:    ARR dollar-based net retention rate is calculated by dividing customer recurring revenue by base revenue. We define base revenue as recurring revenue we recognized from all customers with a valid license at the last quarter of the previous year period, during the four quarters ended one year prior to the date of measurement. We define our customer revenue as the recurring revenue we recognized during the four quarters ended on the date of measurement from the same customer base included in our measure of base revenue, including recurring revenue resulting from additional sales to those customers.

Adjusted EBITDA:    Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income plus financial income, tax expense, depreciation and amortization, one-time expenses, share-based compensation expense, acquisition related costs and capital loss from FA disposal.

The following table provides a reconciliation of our net income to Adjusted EBITDA:

In calculating adjusted EBITDA, we exclude items that either have a non-recurring impact on our income statement or which, in the judgment of our management, are items that, either as a result of their nature or size, could, were they not singled out, potentially cause investors to extrapolate future performance from an improper base. In addition, we also exclude share-based compensation expenses to facilitate a better understanding of our operating performance, since these expenses are non-cash and accordingly, we believe do not affect our business operations.

We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our operational performance and to compare it against our work plan and budget. Adjusted EBITDA has no standardized meaning and accordingly has limitations in its usefulness to investors. We provide such non-GAAP measure because management believes it provides useful information to investors. However, investors are cautioned that, unlike financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, non-GAAP measures may not be comparable with similar measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented solely to permit investors to more fully understand how management and our board assesses our performance. The limitations of this non-GAAP financial measure as a performance measure is that it’s provides a view of our results of operations without reflecting all events during a period and may not provide a comparable view of our performance to other companies in our industry. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measure in addition to, and not as replacements for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Key Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

Revenue consists of subscription, perpetual license and other, and professional services.

•        Subscription.    In connection with our term-based license and perpetual license arrangements, we generate revenue through maintenance and support under renewable subscription, fee-based contracts that include unspecified software updates and upgrades released when and if available as well as software patches and support. Customers with active subscriptions are also entitled to our technical customers’ support.

•        Perpetual License and Other.    Perpetual license revenue reflects the revenue recognized from sales of perpetual licenses related to products. Perpetual license fees are recognized upfront assuming all revenue recognition criteria are satisfied. The license is installed on premise, mostly on customers’ computers. Other revenue consists of revenue from usage-based fees and sale of hardware related to our offering.

•        Professional Services.    Professional Services consists of revenue related to: (i) certified training classes by Cellebrite Academy; (ii) our advanced technical services; (iii) implementation of our products in connection with our software licenses. The revenue of professional services is recognized upon the delivery of our services.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists of cost of subscription, cost of perpetual license and other, and cost of professional services.

•        Cost of Subscription.    Cost of subscription revenue includes all direct cost to deliver subscription services, including third party license fees, fees paid to OEMs, materials, salaries and related employees’ expenses, allocated overhead for depreciation of equipment and facilities as well as IT and travel expenses. We recognize these costs and expenses upon occurrence.

•        Cost of Perpetual License and Other.    Cost of perpetual license and other revenue includes all direct costs to deliver perpetual license and other products, including third party license fees, fees paid for third party products, materials, salaries and related employees’ expenses, allocated overhead for depreciation of equipment and facilities, IT, travel expenses, warehouse, manufacturing and supply chain costs.

We recognize these costs and expenses upon occurrence.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue, and gross margin is gross profit as a percentage of revenue. Gross profit has been and will continue to be affected by various factors, including our revenue mix, the selling price to our customers, the cost of our manufacturing facility, supply chain, salaries, other related costs to our employees and subcontractors and overhead. We expect that our gross margin will fluctuate from period to period depending on the interplay of these various factors.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses consists of research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative. The most significant components of our operating expenses are personnel costs, which is included in each component of operating expenses and consists of salaries, benefits, bonuses, stock-based compensation and, with regards to sales and marketing expenses, sales commissions.

•        Research and development.    Research and development expenses primarily consist of the cost of salaries and related costs for employees, subcontractors cost and depreciation of equipment. We focus our research and development efforts on developing new solutions, core technologies and to further enhance the functionality, reliability, performance and flexibility of existing solutions. We believe that our software development teams and our core technologies represent a significant competitive advantage for us and we expect that our research and development expenses will continue to increase, as we invest in research and development headcount to further strengthen and enhance our solutions.

•        General and administrative.    General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel and facility-related costs for our executive, finance, legal, IT, human resources and administrative personnel, and other corporate expenses, including those associated with preparation of the public offering. We anticipate continuing to incur additional expenses due to growing our operations and being a public company, including higher legal, corporate insurance and accounting expenses. All of the departments are allocated with general and administrative expenses such as rent and related expenses, recruitment and training, information systems licenses, support and others.

•        Sales and marketing.    Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of personnel, marketing, and business development personnel, travel expenses, and commissions earned by our sales personnel. Our costs of marketing and business development programs and facility-related costs for our sales also contribute to the sales and marketing expenses. We expect that sales and marketing expenses will continue to increase as we continue to hire additional sales and marketing personnel and invest in sales and marketing programs.

Quarterly Trends in Operating Expenses

Operating expenses have generally increased sequentially as a result of our growth and are primarily relates to increases in personnel-related costs, including share-based compensation, to support the expanded operations, continued investment in research and development, and expansion of commercial and marketing investments.

Financial Income, Net

Financial income, net consists primarily of interest income on our short-term deposits, fees to banks and foreign currency realized and unrealized gains and losses related to the impact of transactions denominated in a foreign currency.

Other Expenses, Net

Other expenses, net, consists of expenses which are not part of our standard business operating expenses.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense (as well as deferred tax assets and liabilities, and liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits) reflect management’s best assessment of estimated current and future taxes to be paid. We are subject to income taxes in Israel, the United States, and numerous other foreign jurisdictions.

Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining the consolidated income tax expense.

Our income tax rate varies from Israel’s statutory income tax rates, mainly due to differing tax rates and regulations in foreign jurisdictions and other differences between expenses and expenses recognized by other tax authorities in relevant jurisdictions. We expect this fluctuation in income tax rates, as well as its potential impact on our results of operations, to continue.
