Introductory Note.

This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed in connection with the completion of the previously announced Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 26, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among UserTesting, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Thunder Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), and Thunder Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of Thoma Bravo Discover Fund III, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and Thoma Bravo Discover Fund IV, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and are managed by Thoma Bravo, L.P.

On January 12, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

Item 2.01

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.

At 5:00 a.m., Pacific Time, on the Closing Date, each share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) (subject to certain exceptions, including shares of Common Stock owned by stockholders of the Company who have not voted in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and have properly exercised appraisal rights in accordance with Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware), was automatically converted into the right to receive $7.50 in cash, without interest thereon (the “Merger Consideration”), less any applicable withholding taxes.

In addition, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time:

●

Each option to purchase shares of Common Stock that was vested in accordance with its terms and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Vested Company Option”) was, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the excess, if any, of (A) the Merger Consideration over (B) the per share exercise price for such Vested Company Option by (y) the total number of shares of Common Stock underlying such Vested Company Option, subject to applicable withholding taxes; provided, however, that if the exercise price per share of Common Stock of such Vested Company Option was equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Vested Company Option was cancelled without any cash payment or other consideration being made in respect thereof. Each option to purchase shares of Common Stock that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and was not a Vested Company Option (each, an “Unvested Company Option”) was, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, converted into the contingent right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the excess, if any, of (A) the Merger Consideration over (B) the per share exercise price for such Unvested Company Option by (y) the total number of shares of Common Stock underlying such Unvested Company Option, subject to applicable withholding taxes; provided, however, that if the exercise price per share of Common Stock of such Unvested Company Option was equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, such Unvested Company Option was cancelled without any cash payment or other consideration being made in respect thereof. The resulting amount will, subject to certain exceptions, vest and become payable at the same time as the Unvested Company Option from which such resulting amount was converted would have vested and been payable pursuant to its terms and, subject to certain exceptions, will otherwise remain subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the Unvested Company Option(s) immediately prior to the Effective Time.

●

Each restricted stock unit award of the Company that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (A) held by a non-employee member of the board of directors of the Company (“Board”) (whether vested or unvested) or (B) vested in accordance with its terms as of the Effective Time (each, a “Vested Company RSU”) was, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock underlying such Vested Company RSU by (y) the Merger Consideration, subject to applicable withholding taxes. Each restricted stock unit award of the Company that was not a Vested Company RSU and was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, an “Unvested Company RSU”) was, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, converted into the contingent right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock underlying such Unvested Company RSU by (y) the Merger Consideration, subject to applicable withholding taxes, which resulting amount will, subject to certain exceptions, vest and become payable at the same time as the Unvested Company RSU from which such resulting amount was converted would have vested and been payable pursuant to its terms and, subject to certain exceptions, will otherwise remain subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the Unvested Company RSU(s) immediately prior to the Effective Time.

The foregoing description of the Merger and the Merger Agreement, and the other transactions contemplated thereby, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 27, 2022, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.01

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

The information set forth in the Introductory Note and Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.01.

On the Closing Date, the Company (i) notified the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) of the consummation of the Merger and (ii) requested that NYSE file with the SEC a Form 25 Notification of Removal from Listing and/or Registration to delist and deregister the shares of Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Upon effectiveness of the Form 25, the Company intends to file with the SEC a Certification and Notice of Termination on Form 15 to deregister the shares of Common Stock and suspend the Company’s reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Trading of the Common Stock on NYSE was halted prior to the opening of trading on the Closing Date.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note and Items 2.01, 3.01, 5.01 and 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.03.

As a result of the Merger, each share of Common Stock that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (except as described in Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K) was converted, at the Effective Time, into the right to receive the Merger Consideration. Accordingly, at the Effective Time, the holders of such shares of Common Stock ceased to have any rights as stockholders of the Company, other than the right to receive the Merger Consideration.

The information set forth in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 5.03.

Item 5.07.

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At a special meeting of stockholders of the Company held on January 10, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders voted to adopt the Merger Agreement.

As of December 2, 2022, the record date for the Special Meeting, there were 146,859,078 shares of Common Stock outstanding, each of which was entitled to one (1) vote for each proposal at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, a total of 127,146,263 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 86.6% of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote, were present virtually or by proxy, constituting a quorum to conduct business.

At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders voted on a proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement Proposal”). The Merger Agreement Proposal is described in detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the Special Meeting filed with the SEC on December 6, 2022. The final results for the votes regarding the Merger Agreement Proposal are set forth below. There were no recorded broker non-votes.

On November 28, 2022, a purported individual shareholder of UserTesting filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned O’Dell v. UserTesting, Inc., et al., 1:22-cv-10071, naming as defendants the Company and each member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) as of the date of the Merger Agreement (O’Dell). On December 1, 2022, an additional case was filed by a purported individual shareholder of UserTesting in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, Glanville v. UserTesting, Inc., et al., 3:22-cv-07568 (Glanville). On December 12, 2022, an additional case was filed by a purported individual shareholder of UserTesting in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned Moore v. UserTesting, Inc., et al., 1:22-cv-10484 (Moore). On December 13, 2022, an additional case was filed by a purported individual shareholder of UserTesting in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, captioned Scott v. UserTesting, Inc., et al., 1:22-cv-01588 (Scott). On December 14, 2022, an additional case was filed by a purported individual shareholder of UserTesting in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, captioned Bushansky v. UserTesting, Inc., et al., 4:22-cv-08870 (Bushansky). The O’Dell, Glanville, Moore, Scott and Bushansky cases, and any similar subsequently filed cases involving the Company, the Board or any committee thereof and/or any of the Company’s directors or officers relating directly or indirectly to the Merger Agreement, the Merger or any related transaction, are referred to as the “Merger Litigations.”

The Merger Litigations filed to date generally allege that the Preliminary Proxy Statement or the Definitive Proxy Statement is materially incomplete and misleading by allegedly failing to disclose certain purportedly material information. The Merger Litigations assert violations of Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder against UserTesting and the Board and violations of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the Board. The Merger Litigations seek, among other things: an injunction enjoining consummation of the Merger, rescission of the Merger Agreement, recission of the Merger if consummated, damages, costs of the action, including attorneys’ fees and experts’ fees and expenses, and any other relief the court may deem just and proper.

UserTesting cannot predict the outcome of each Merger Litigation, nor can UserTesting predict the amount of time and expense that will be required to resolve each Merger Litigation. UserTesting believes that the O’Dell, Glanville, Moore, Scott and Bushansky cases are without merit and that no supplemental disclosures are required under applicable law, and UserTesting and its directors intend to vigorously defend against each Merger Litigation and any subsequently filed similar actions. It is possible that additional similar complaints could be filed in connection with the Merger. UserTesting cannot predict the outcome of or estimate the possible loss or range of loss from the Merger Litigations. If any additional complaints are filed, absent new or significantly different allegations, UserTesting will not necessarily disclose such additional filings.

In addition, nine purported stockholders of UserTesting sent demand letters regarding the Preliminary Proxy Statement and Definitive Proxy Statement (the “Demand Letters”). Based on the same core allegations as the Merger Litigations, the Demand Letters request that the Company disseminate corrective disclosures in an amendment or supplement to the Preliminary Proxy Statement or Definitive Proxy Statement.

While UserTesting believes that the disclosures set forth in the Preliminary Proxy Statement and Definitive Proxy Statement comply fully with all applicable law and denies the allegations in the Merger Litigations and the Demand Letters, in order to moot these disclosure claims, avoid nuisance and possible expense and business delays, and provide additional information to its stockholders, UserTesting has determined voluntarily to supplement certain disclosures in the Definitive Proxy Statement related to the aforementioned claims with the supplemental disclosures set forth below (the “Supplemental Disclosures”). Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall be deemed an admission of the legal merit, necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein. To the contrary, UserTesting specifically denies all allegations in the Merger Litigations and the Demand Letters that any additional disclosure was or is required or material.

Supplement to Definitive Proxy Statement

All page references used herein refer to pages in the Definitive Proxy Statement before any additions or deletions resulting from the Supplemental Disclosures, and capitalized terms used below, unless otherwise defined, have the meanings set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement. Underlined and bolded text shows text being added to a referenced disclosure in the Definitive Proxy Statement and stricken-through text shows text being deleted from a referenced disclosure in the Definitive Proxy Statement. This Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated into, and amends and/or supplements, the Definitive Proxy Statement as provided herein. Except as specifically noted herein, the information set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement remains unchanged.

The twenty-third paragraph under the caption “The Merger—Background of the Merger” on page 34 of the Definitive Proxy Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On September 20, 2022, we entered into a letter agreement regarding confidentiality (the “Confidentiality Agreement”) with Thoma Bravo. The Confidentiality Agreement included a customary 12-month standstill provision that did not include a so-called “don’t ask, don’t waive” provision and was subject to a customary “fallaway” provision under which it would terminate if we were to enter into a merger agreement with a third party providing for a change of control transaction of our company. In addition, the Confidentiality Agreement restricted the ability of Thoma Bravo to disclose our confidential information to UserZoom.

The sixty-second paragraph under the caption “The Merger—Background of the Merger” on page 39 of the Definitive Proxy Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

From October 27, 2022, after the transaction was announced, and through December 5, 2022, at the direction of the Board and the Transaction Committee, Morgan Stanley contacted 25 strategic counterparties and 19 financial sponsor counterparties regarding a potential acquisition of us in connection with the “go-shop” provision in the Merger Agreement. Over the course of this period, 22 of the strategic counterparties contacted, and all 19 of the financial sponsor counterparties contacted, affirmatively declined to further evaluate a potential transaction. The remaining three strategic counterparties subsequently affirmatively declined to further evaluate a potential transaction as well.

The fourth paragraph under the caption “The Merger—Opinion of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC—Public Trading Comparables Analysis” on page 45 of the Definitive Proxy Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Based on an analysis of the relevant metrics for each of the comparable companies and upon the application of its professional judgment and experience, Morgan Stanley selected a representative range of AV/CY2023E Revenue Multiples of 2.0x - 4.0x and applied this range of multiples to the estimated revenue for UserTesting for calendar year 2023 based on the Street Consensus. In addition, for the purpose of this analysis, Morgan Stanley calculated UserTesting’s aggregate value assuming UserTesting’s net cash as of September 30, 2022 as provided by UserTesting’s management. Based on the calculations set forth above and the outstanding shares of UserTesting common stock on a fully diluted basis as provided by UserTesting management on October 25, 2022, this analysis implied an estimated value per share of UserTesting common stock of $3.80 to $6.46.

The second paragraph under the caption “The Merger—Opinion of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC—Discounted Equity Value Analysis” beginning on page 45 of the Definitive Proxy Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

To calculate the discounted equity value per share of UserTesting common stock, Morgan Stanley used calendar year 2025 estimated revenue of approximately $335 million based on the Street Consensus and approximately $348 million based on the October Financial Forecast. For each scenario, Morgan Stanley calculated the future-implied aggregate value of UserTesting as of December 31, 2024 by applying its public trading comparables analysis reference range for AV/CY2023E Revenue Multiples of 2.0x - 4.0x, as described above, to UserTesting’s calendar year 2025 estimated revenue based on each of the Street Consensus and the October Financial Forecast. In each case, Morgan Stanley then divided the future-implied aggregate value by estimated future diluted shares outstanding (with such estimates provided by UserTesting’s management) to calculate a future implied equity value per share. Morgan Stanley then discounted the resulting future implied equity values per share to December 31, 2022 using a discount rate equal to UserTesting’s assumed cost of equity of 13.5 percent, which cost of equity was selected based on the application of Morgan Stanley’s professional judgment and experience to reflect an estimate of UserTesting’s cost of equity using the capital asset pricing model and utilizing a 6% market risk premium, a risk-free rate of 4.1% based on the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield as of October 26, 2022, and a 1.56 predicted beta per Barra. Based on these calculations, this analysis implied the following value ranges per share of UserTesting’s common stock:

Forecast Scenario		Implied Value Per Share Range of UserTesting Common Stock ($)
Street Consensus		3.84 - 7.15
October Financial Forecast		4.08 - 7.51

The second paragraph under the caption “The Merger—Opinion of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC—Discounted Cash Flow Analysis” on page 46 of the Definitive Proxy Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Morgan Stanley first calculated the estimated unlevered free cash flow, which is defined as non-GAAP earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (burdened by stock based compensation), less taxes and capital expenditures, and adjusted for changes in net working capital (excluding deferred revenue) and deferred revenue. To calculate terminal value, Morgan Stanley applied a range of perpetual growth rates of 3.0 percent to 4.0 percent, based on Morgan Stanley’s professional judgment. Morgan Stanley then discounted the unlevered free cash flows and terminal value to present values as of December 31, 2022 using a range of discount rates from 12.5% to 14.5%, which discount rates were selected based on the application of Morgan Stanley’s professional judgment and experience, to reflect an estimate of UserTesting’s weighted average cost of capital estimated using the capital asset pricing model for the cost of equity, as described above. The resulting aggregate value was then adjusted to add net cash and further adjusted to add the net present value of net operating losses. Morgan Stanley then added net cash of $165 million as of September 30, 2022, as provided by UserTesting management, and the net present value of net operating losses to the value of the discounted unlevered free cash flow and terminal value to derive the implied equity value.

The first paragraph under the caption “The Merger—Opinion of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC—Precedent Transactions Multiples Analysis” on page 46 of the Definitive Proxy Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Morgan Stanley performed a precedent transactions multiples analysis, which is designed to imply a value of a company based on publicly available financial terms, by reviewing publicly available statistics for selected comparable transactions. Such comparable transactions included certain software transactions since 2018 that were selected because they shared certain characteristics with the Merger, as determined based on the application of Morgan Stanley’s professional judgment and experience. For each such transaction, Morgan Stanley noted the aggregate value of the transaction as a multiple of the estimated revenue of the target company for the twelve month period following the announcement date of the applicable transaction (which multiple is referred to herein as “AV/NTM Revenue Multiple”). The 25th to 75th percentile range of AV/NTM Revenue Multiples for the selected comparable transactions was 4.6x to 7.9x with a median of 6.0x.

The first paragraph under the caption “The Merger—Opinion of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC—Other Information—Equity Research Analysts’ Future Price Targets” on page 49 of the Definitive Proxy Statement is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Morgan Stanley reviewed certain future public market trading price targets for UserTesting common stock prepared and published by equity research analysts prior to October 26, 2022. Morgan Stanley considered ten total price targets. These targets reflected each analyst’s estimate of the future public market trading price of UserTesting common stock. The range of undiscounted analyst price targets for the UserTesting common stock was $4.50 to $9.00 per share, with a median of $8.00 per share and a mean of $8.05. Morgan Stanley then discounted the range of analyst price targets per share for the UserTesting common stock to December 31, 2022 at a rate of 13.5%, which was the discount rate selected by Morgan Stanley, upon the application of its professional judgment and experience, to reflect UserTesting’s cost of equity. This analysis indicated an implied range of fully diluted equity values for UserTesting common stock of $4.06 to $8.12 per share.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based on UserTesting’s current expectations, estimates and projections about the expected date of closing of the proposed transaction and the potential benefits thereof, its business and industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by UserTesting, Thoma Bravo and Sunstone Partners, all of which are subject to change. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “could,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “may,” “would,” “might,” “potentially,” “estimate,” “continue,” “expect,” “target,” similar expressions or the negatives of these words or other comparable terminology that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond UserTesting’s control, and are not guarantees of future results, such as statements about the consummation of the proposed transaction and the anticipated benefits thereof. These and other forward-looking statements, including the failure to consummate the proposed transaction or to make or take any filing or other action required to consummate the transaction on a timely manner or at all, are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such statements and, therefore, you should not place undue reliance on any such statements and caution must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (i) the completion of the proposed transaction on anticipated terms and timing, including obtaining stockholder approval, anticipated tax treatment, unforeseen liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses, future prospects, business and management strategies for the management, expansion and growth of UserTesting’s business and other conditions to the completion of the transaction; (ii) the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation, foreign exchange rates and general economic conditions on UserTesting’s business; (iii) UserTesting’s ability to implement its business strategy; (iv) significant transaction costs associated with the proposed transaction; (v) potential litigation relating to the proposed transaction; (vi) the risk that disruptions from the proposed transaction will harm UserTesting’s business, including current plans and operations; (vii) attraction and retention of qualified employees; (viii) potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed transaction; (ix) general economic and market developments and conditions; (x) UserTesting’s ability to stay in compliance with laws and regulations that currently apply or become applicable to UserTesting’s business both in the United States and internationally; (xi) potential business uncertainty, including changes to existing business relationships, during the pendency of the merger that could affect UserTesting’s financial performance; (xii) restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact UserTesting’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; and (xiii) unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including, but not limited to, acts of terrorism or outbreak of war or hostilities, as well as UserTesting’s response to any of the aforementioned factors. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed transaction, are more fully discussed in the Definitive Proxy Statement. While the list of factors presented here and in the Definitive Proxy Statement are considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on UserTesting’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. UserTesting does not assume any obligation to publicly provide revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws.
