Business
Waystar Holding Corp. (“Waystar”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a provider of mission-critical cloud technology to healthcare organizations. Our enterprise-grade platform transforms the complex and disparate processes comprising healthcare payments received by healthcare providers from payers and patients, from pre-service engagement through post-service remittance and reconciliation. Our platform enhances data integrity, eliminates manual tasks, and improves claim and billing accuracy, which results in better transparency, reduced labor costs, and faster, more accurate reimbursement and cash flow. The market for our solutions extends throughout the United States and includes Puerto Rico and other U.S. Territories.
Risks and Uncertainties
— We are subject to risks common to companies in similar industries, including, but not limited to, our operation in a highly competitive industry, our ability to retain our existing clients and attract new clients, our ability to successfully execute on our business strategies in order to grow, our ability to accurately assess the risks related to acquisitions and successfully integrate acquired businesses, including the acquisition of Iodine, our ability to establish and maintain strategic relationships, the growth and success of our clients and overall healthcare transaction volumes, consolidation in the healthcare industry, our selling cycle of variable length to secure new client agreements, our implementation cycle that is dependent on our clients’ timing and resources, our dependence on our senior management team and certain key employees, and our ability to attract and retain highly skilled employees, the accuracy of the estimates and assumptions we use to determine the size of our total addressable market, our ability to develop and market new solutions, or enhance our existing solutions, to respond to technological changes or evolving industry standards, the interoperability, connectivity, and integration of our solutions with our clients’ and their vendors’ networks and infrastructures, the performance and reliability of internet, mobile, and other infrastructure, the consequences if we cannot obtain, process, use, disclose, or distribute the highly regulated data we require to provide our solutions, and our reliance on certain third-party vendors and providers.
On occasion, we enter into standard indemnification arrangements in the ordinary course of business. Pursuant to these arrangements, we indemnify, hold harmless, and agree to reimburse the indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, in connection with any trade secret, copyright, patent, or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third party with respect to its technology. The terms of these indemnification agreements are generally perpetual any time after the execution of the agreement. The maximum potential future payments we could be required to make under these agreements is not determinable because it involves claims that may be made against us in the future but have not yet been made. Historically, we have not incurred costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements.
We have entered into agreements with our directors or officers that may require us to indemnify them against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers, other than liabilities arising from their willful misconduct.
No liability associated with such indemnifications was recorded as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The financial statements include the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statements of changes in stockholders’ equity, and statements of cash flows of Waystar and its subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the interim financial information includes all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or the results for any future periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
7
Table of Contents
Waystar Holding Corp.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2025 in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 17, 2026 (the “2025 Annual Report”).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but are not limited to: (1) revenue recognition, including estimated expected customer life; (2) recoverability of accounts receivable and taxes receivable; (3) impairment assessment of goodwill and long-lived intangible assets; (4) fair value of intangibles acquired in business combinations; (5) litigation reserves; (6) depreciation and amortization; (7) fair value of stock options issued to employees and assumed as part of business combinations; (8) fair value of interest rate swaps; and (9) leases, including incremental borrowing rate. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty, and accordingly, accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment. We evaluate and update assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis and may employ outside experts to assist in evaluations. Actual results could differ from the estimates used.
Revenue Recognition
We derive revenue primarily from providing access to our solutions for use in the healthcare industry and in doing so generate two types of revenue: (i) subscription revenue and (ii) volume-based revenue, which account for
99
% of total revenue for all periods presented. We also derive revenue from implementation fees for our software, as well as hardware sales to facilitate patient payments.
We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
(“ASC 606”), through the following five steps:
•
identification of the contract, or contracts, with a client;
•
identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
•
determination of the transaction price;
•
allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
•
recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation
Our customers, referred to as clients elsewhere in this report, represent healthcare providers across all types of care settings, including physician practices, clinics, surgical centers, and laboratories, as well as large hospitals and health systems.
We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The length of our contracts varies but is typically
two
to
three years
and generally renew automatically for successive
one-year
terms. Our revenue is reported net of applicable sales and use tax and is recognized as, or when, control of these services or products are transferred to clients, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for the contract’s performance obligations.
Revenue from our subscription services as well as from our volume-based services represents a single promise to provide continuous access (i.e., a stand-ready obligation) to our software solutions in the form of a service. Our software products are made available to our clients via a cloud-based, hosted platform where our clients do not have the right or practical ability to take possession of the software. As each day of providing access to the software solutions is substantially the same and the client simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits as services are provided, these services are viewed as a single performance obligation comprised of a series of distinct daily services.
Revenue from our subscription services is recognized over time on a ratable basis over the contract term beginning on the date that the service is made available to the client. Volume-based services are priced based on transaction, dollar volume or provider count in a given period. Given the nature of the promise is based on unknown quantities or outcomes of services to be performed over the contract term, the volume-based fee is determined to be variable consideration. The
8
Table of Contents
Waystar Holding Corp.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
volume-based transaction fees are recognized each day using a time-elapsed output method based on the volume or transaction count at the time the clients’ transactions are processed.
Our other services are generally related to implementation activities across all solutions and hardware sales to facilitate patient payments. Implementation services are not considered performance obligations as they do not provide a distinct service to clients without the use of our software solutions. As such, implementation fees related to our solutions are billed upfront and recognized ratably over the contract term. Implementation fees and hardware sales represent less than
1
% of total revenue for all periods presented.
Our contracts with clients typically include various combinations of our software solutions. Determining whether such software solutions are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together requires significant judgment. Specifically, judgment is required to determine whether access to our SaaS solutions is distinct from other services and solutions included in an arrangement.
We follow the requirements of ASC 606-10-55-36 through -40, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Principal Agent Considerations, in determining the gross versus net revenue presentations for our performance obligations in the contract with a client. Revenue recorded where we act in the capacity of a principal is reported on a gross basis equal to the full amount of consideration to which we expect in exchange for the good or service transferred. Revenue recorded where we act in the capacity of an agent is reported on a net basis, exclusive of any consideration provided to the principal party in the transaction.
The principal versus agent evaluation is a matter of judgment that depends on the facts and circumstances of the arrangement and is dependent on whether we control the good or service before it is transferred to the client or whether we are acting as an agent of a third party. This evaluation is performed separately for each performance obligation identified. For the majority of our contracts, we are considered the principal in the transaction with the client and recognize revenue gross of any related channel partner fees or costs. We have certain agency arrangements where third parties control the goods or services provided to a client and we recognize revenue net of any fees owed to these third parties.
Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although our standard payment terms generally require payment within
30
to
60
days. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of payment, we have determined our contracts do not generally include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of our invoicing terms is to provide clients with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing our products and services, not to receive financing from our clients or to provide clients with financing.
Contract Costs
Incremental Costs of Obtaining a Contract
Incremental costs of obtaining a contract primarily include commissions paid to our internal sales personnel. We consider all such commissions to be both incremental and recoverable since they are only paid when a contract is secured. These capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit, which is determined based on the average customer life, which includes anticipated renewals of contracts. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the total unamortized costs reported as deferred costs on our balance sheet amounted to $
39.5
million and $
32.4
million, respectively, for internal sales commissions. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, amortization related to the sales commission asset was $
3.9
million and $
3.2
million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, amortization related to the sales commission asset was $
7.5
million and $
6.3
million, respectively. The aforementioned amortization amounts are included in sales and marketing in our consolidated statements of operations.
Costs to Fulfill a Contract
We capitalize costs incurred to fulfill contracts that i) relate directly to the contract, ii) are expected to generate resources that will be used to satisfy performance obligations under the contract, and iii) are expected to be recovered through revenue generated under the contract. Costs incurred to implement clients on our solutions (e.g., direct labor) are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated customer life if we expect to recover those costs. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the total unamortized costs reported as deferred costs on our balance sheet amounted to $
65.3
million and $
61.6
million, respectively, for fulfillment costs. For the three months ended June 30, 2026
9
Table of Contents
Waystar Holding Corp.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
and 2025, amortization related to the fulfillment cost asset was $
4.7
million and $
3.9
million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, amortization related to the fulfillment cost asset was $
9.3
million and $
7.6
million, respectively. The aforementioned amortization amounts are included in the costs of revenue in our consolidated statements of operations.
There were
no
impairment losses relating to deferred costs during the periods presented.
Channel Partners
We account for fees paid to channel partners within sales and marketing expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recorded fees to all channel partners of $
22.0
million and $
19.0
million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recorded fees to all channel partners of $
43.5
million and $
37.3
million, respectively. As we are primarily responsible for contracting with and fulfilling contracts for the end user, we record revenue gross of related channel partner fees.
Cash and cash equivalents
We consider highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any credit losses in such accounts.
Investment securities
Our short-term investments, which consist of debt securities, are stated at fair value. These debt securities have been categorized as available-for-sale and classified as current assets given their maturity date is 12 months or less. Unrealized holding gains and losses for debt securities, net of applicable deferred taxes, are included in other comprehensive income or loss as a component of stockholders’ equity until realized from a sale or an expected credit loss is recognized. For the purpose of determining realized gross gains and losses for debt securities sold, that are included as a component of interest income/(expense) in the consolidated statements of income, the cost of investment securities sold is based upon specific identification. We recorded $
1.4
million and $
0.5
million of interest income on investment securities for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, within “Interest expense, net” of our statements of operations. We recorded $
2.1
million and $
0.6
million of interest income on investment securities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, within “Other expense” of our statements of operations.
Under the current expected credit losses model expected losses on available-for-sale debt securities are recognized through an allowance for credit losses rather than as reductions in the amortized cost of securities. For debt securities whose fair value is less than their amortized cost which we do not intend to sell or are not required to sell, we evaluate the expected cash flows to be received as compared to amortized cost and determine if an expected credit loss has occurred. In the event of any expected credit loss, only the amount of impairment associated with the expected credit loss is recognized in income with the remainder, if any, of the loss recognized in other comprehensive income. To the extent we have the intent to sell the debt security, or it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the debt security before recovery of our amortized cost basis, we recognize an impairment loss in income in an amount equal to the full difference between the amortized cost basis and the fair value.

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” The standard is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed information about expenses that is critically important in understanding an entity’s performance, assessing an entity’s prospects for future cash flows, and comparing an entity’s performance over time and with that of other entities. For public business entities, this ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this

Waystar Holding Corp.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
ASU should be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of this amendment on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software” to modernize the accounting guidance for the costs to develop software for internal use. The new guidance amends the existing standard that refers to various stages of a software development project to align better with current software development methods, such as agile programming. The new guidance will be effective for all entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The guidance can be applied on a fully prospective basis, a modified basis for in-process projects, or a full retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of this amendment on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09, “Hedge Accounting Improvements,” which is an update to ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” Consistent with the original objective of ASU 2017-12, the objective of this ASU is to more closely align hedge accounting with the economics of an entity's risk management activity. The amendments included in the five issues addressed in this ASU are intended to better reflect those strategies in financial reporting by enabling entities to achieve and maintain hedge accounting for highly effective economic hedges of forecasted transactions. For public companies, the new guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods. We are currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of this amendment on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, an update to improve the guidance in Topic 270, Interim Reporting, by improving the navigability of the required interim disclosures and clarifying when that guidance is applicable. For public companies, the update is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. We are currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of this amendment on our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition
Disaggregation of Revenue
During the current period, we expanded our disaggregation of revenue to include disclosures by solution type to provide readers with additional information on the nature and amounts of our revenue. We have updated to reflect this change for the prior periods to be comparable with the classification for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. These changes had no effect on previously reported revenue.

Contract Liabilities
We derive our revenue from contracts with clients primarily through subscription fees and volume-based fees. Our payment terms with the client generally comprise an initial payment for implementation services, which includes client enrollment and the setup of contracted solutions on our platform. These implementation fees are due upon contract execution. Additionally, subscription fees are earned on an ongoing basis, which are invoiced monthly.

Table of Contents
Waystar Holding Corp.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Client payments received in advance of fulfilling the corresponding performance obligations are recorded as contract liabilities. Implementation fees are recognized over the customer life, with any unrecognized amounts deferred as contract liabilities. These amounts are reported as deferred revenue on our consolidated balance sheet.
Revenue recognized from the amounts included in deferred revenue as of the beginning of the period was $
36.5
million and $
0.9
million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Revenue recognized from the amounts included in deferred revenue as of the beginning of the period was $
53.8
million and $
9.1
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations
At June 30, 2026, the transaction price related to unsatisfied performance obligations that are expected to be recognized for the next
12
months and greater than
12
months was $
76.7
million and $
39.6
million, respectively.
The transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) for executed contracts does not include revenue related to performance obligations that are part of a contract with an original expected duration of one year or less.
Additionally, the balance does not include variable consideration that is allocated entirely to wholly unsatisfied promises that form part of a single performance obligation comprised of a series of distinct daily services.
Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations and changes in the timing and scope of contracts, arising from contract modifications.

Segments
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assessing performance. We have
one
business activity and there are no segment managers who are held accountable for operations, operating results and plans for products or components below the consolidated unit level. The geographical location of our customers has no impact on strategy or products offered. The “chief operating decision maker,” or CODM, assesses performance and allocates resources using a consolidated profitability metric as discussed below. Accordingly, we have determined that we operate in a single reportable operating segment.
Our CODM is our Chief Executive Officer. On a monthly basis, our CODM reviews the following financial information presented on a consolidated basis. The key profitability metric used for purposes of making key personnel staffing decisions, approving operating budgets and forecasts, and making strategy decisions is Net Income as detailed below. See Note 3 for our disaggregated revenue by type.

The fair values of our interest rate swaps and cap are based on the sum of all future net present value cash flows. The future cash flows are derived based on the terms of our interest rate swaps and cap, as well as considering published discount factors, and projected SOFR curve. The fair value of long-term debt was a Level 2 instrument, the fair value of which was determined using the present value of future cash flows based on the borrowing rates currently available for debt with similar terms and maturities. The carrying value of our First Lien Credit Facility was $
1,374.1
million and $
1,401.2
million compared to a fair value of $
1,369.0
million and $
1,408.3
million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The carrying value of our Receivables Facility approximated fair value at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. There were
no
transfers in or out of Level 3 during the periods presented.
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the carrying value of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and other current assets and liabilities approximates fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments. Interest rate swaps are Level 2 instruments whose fair value is derived from discounted cash flows adjusted for nonperformance risk. Investment securities are Level 2 instruments whose fair value is observed through market data of similar securities. Money market funds are Level 1 instruments whose fair value is observed through daily quoted prices of similar assets. Money market funds are considered cash equivalents because they have a maturity of less than three months and are highly liquid.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, we recorded impairment expense of $
2.0
million of general and administrative expense in our consolidated statement of operations related to an right-of-use asset and leasehold improvements at an office location we plan to exit. The impairment resulted from a change in the expected use of the facility and was measured as the excess of the carrying value of the asset group over its estimated fair value. Fair value was determined using an income approach based on estimated future sublease income.
There were no other impairments of property and equipment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

32.1
million and $
31.4
million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, based on the year-to-date pre-tax income. Our effective income tax rate was
27.5
% and
30.9
% for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our effective income tax rate was
27.6
% and
33.9
% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Differences in the effective tax rate and statutory federal income tax rate of
21
% are primarily driven by the impact of certain limitations on the deductibility of stock-based compensation recognized for financial reporting purposes as well as state income taxes and research and development credits claimed.
11.
Accounts Receivable Securitization
As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had $
100.0
million and $
80.0
million, respectively, outstanding under a receivables financing agreement with a counterparty as the lender, which provides for a
three-year
receivables facility with a limit of $
100.0
million (the “Receivables Facility”). Pursuant to the Receivables Facility, we sell and/or contribute current and future receivables to Waystar RC, LLC as the Special Purpose Entity (“SPE”). The SPE, in turn, pledges its interests in the receivables to the counterparty, which either makes loans or issues letters of credit on behalf of the SPE. All receivables remain on our balance sheet as they continue to be the property of our consolidated entities under the securitization.
On February 13, 2026, we executed an amendment to our Receivables Facility that increased the credit available to us from $
80.0
million to $
100.0
million and extended the maturity date from October 31, 2026 to February 13, 2029. Additionally, the amendment decreased the interest rate on the Receivables Facility from
1.61
% per annum above the SOFR rate to
1.10
% per annum above the SOFR rate. In connection with this amendment, we capitalized $
0.2
million of lender fees.
The interest rate under the Receivables Facility is
1.10
% per annum above the SOFR rate with a minimum base of
0
%. The SOFR is adjusted each
thirty-day
period to the thirty-day SOFR rate. Interest under the Receivables Facility is paid monthly in arrears. At June 30, 2026, the effective interest rate for the Receivables Facility was
4.75
%.
All principal under the Receivables Facility is due on February 13, 2029.
The Receivables Facility contains certain covenants which, among other things, require we maintain certain collection thresholds with respect to our accounts receivable. We were in compliance with all such debt covenants during the periods presented.

Derivative Financial Instruments
To mitigate the risk of an increase in interest rates on the First Lien Credit Facility, we entered into interest rate swaps on January 13, 2023, April 1, 2025 and April 9, 2025, along with an interest rate cap on October 1, 2025. We attempt to minimize our interest risk exposure by fixing our rate through the utilization of interest rate swaps and caps, which are derivative instruments. The interest rate swaps and cap mitigate the exposure on the variable component of interest on our First Lien Credit Facility. The interest rate swaps result in the fixed interest rate shown in the tables below on the swapped portion of the First Lien Credit Facility. The interest rate cap shown in the tables below limits the maximum interest rate we will pay on the covered portion of the First Lien Credit Facility. Our swaps and cap are entered into with financial

Stock-based Compensation
Equity incentive plans
On October 22, 2019, the Board of Directors approved the Waystar Holding Corp. 2019 Stock Incentive Plan (“2019 Waystar Holding Plan”). Under this plan, we can issue up to
9.9
million options or other equity awards. The granted awards contain service criteria, performance criteria, market conditions, or a combination thereof for vesting and have a
10
-year contractual term. Options with a service condition generally vest over
5
years with
20
% vesting in equal vesting installments. Options with a performance condition and a market condition vest based upon a change in control, initial public offering, or a sponsor distribution or deemed return if the investors have achieved specified levels of return on investment. In addition, as part of a change in control in 2019,
2.1
million fully vested rollover options remain outstanding.
The Board of Directors approved the Waystar Holding Corp. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2024 Equity Incentive Plan”), effective as of June 6, 2024, the date of pricing of our IPO. Under this plan, we can issue non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares of our Common Stock, restricted stock units, performance-based stock units, and other equity-based awards tied to the value of our shares. Under this plan, we can issue up to
10
million options and other equity awards, subject to annual increases as outlined under the plan. The number of shares available to be issued automatically increases on the first day of each fiscal year beginning in 2025 by a number of shares equal to the lesser of the positive difference, if any, between
5
% of the outstanding common stock on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year, minus the plan share reserve on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year or such lesser number of shares as may be determined by the Board of Directors. Options with a service condition generally vest over
5
years with
20
% vesting in equal vesting installments. The restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan generally vest over
4
or
5
years with
25
% or
20
% vesting, respectively, in equal vesting installments.
The performance-based stock units (“PSUs”) under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan that include market-based conditions vest between
0
% and
200
% based on our total shareholder return (
“
TSR”) relative to a designated peer group as defined in the respective agreement over a
four-year
performance period.
PSUs under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan that include performance-based conditions vest between
0
% and
200
% based on the probable outcome of achieving cumulative revenue and Adjusted EBITDA targets over a
three-year
performance period. As of June 30, 2026,
8.0
million shares were available for future grants under this plan.
The Board of Directors approved the Waystar Holding Corp. 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), effective as of June 6, 2024, the date of pricing of our IPO. A total of
3,250,000
shares of common stock are initially reserved for the ESPP. The number of shares available to be issued for the ESPP will automatically increase each fiscal year beginning in 2025 by a number of shares equal to the lesser of the positive difference, if any, between
1
% of the outstanding common stock on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and the number of shares of common stock available for the issuance of shares pursuant to the plan on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year or such lesser number of shares as may be determined by the Board of Directors. The number of shares available to be issued for the ESPP will not exceed
27,000,000
as outlined in the plan agreement. Our employees contribute funds via payroll deductions during the offering periods, which are used to buy shares of our common stock at a discount of up to
15
% of the purchase price at the purchase date. Offerings to purchase shares are granted twice annually on or about June 30 and December 31. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025,
zero
shares of our common stock were issued as part of the ESPP. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025,
51,221
and
zero
shares of our common stock were issued as part of the ESPP, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, expense of $
0.1
million and $
0.2
million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, expense of $
0.2
million and $
0.2
million, respectively, has been recorded which represents the
15
% discount given to the employees under the ESPP.

Stock Options
We utilize the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of the service condition options under all plans and the Monte Carlo pricing model to estimate the fair value of the performance condition options under the 2019 Waystar Holding Corp. Plan. We value both types of options at the grant date using the following assumptions:
•
Risk-free interest rate—reflects the average rate on the United States Treasury bond with maturity equal to the expected term of the option;
•
Expected dividend yield—as we do not currently pay dividends or expect to pay dividends in the near future, the expected dividend yield is
zero
;
•
Expected term of stock award – under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, we utilized the simplified method due to the lack of historical experience activity for Waystar. The simplified method calculates the expected term as the mid-point between the vesting date and the contractual expiration date of the award. Under the 2019 Waystar Holding Corp. Plan, it is based on historical experience that is modified based on expected future changes; and
•
Expected volatility in stock price—reflects the historical volatility of comparable public companies over the expected term of the stock option.

Commitments and Contingencies
We may be subject to legal proceedings, claims, asserted or unasserted, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. We do not, however, currently expect that the ultimate costs to resolve any pending matter will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
21.
Subsequent Events
On July 27, 2026, the Compensation Committee, a sub-committee of our Board of Directors approved an amendment to the outstanding option awards granted under the 2019 Stock Incentive Plan. All options under the 2019 Stock Incentive Plan will continue to vest according to their terms. Any such options that remain outstanding and have not otherwise vested by April 1, 2027 will vest at that time. Due to the timing of the modification, the accounting conclusions related to the modification have not yet been finalized.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Waystar Holding Corp. (“Waystar”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our”) should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, and the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the 2025 Form 10-K. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements based on current expectations that involve risks, uncertainties, and other factors outside our control, as well as assumptions, such as our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions. Our actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those described under the sections entitled “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements” above and “Risk Factors” in the 2025 Form 10-K and our other filings with the SEC.
Overview
Waystar provides healthcare organizations with mission-critical AI-powered software that simplifies healthcare payments for providers across the continuum of care. Our enterprise-grade platform streamlines the complex and disparate processes our healthcare providers must manage to ensure accurate reimbursement and improves the payments experience for providers, patients, and payers. We leverage AI as well as proprietary, advanced algorithms to automate payment-related workflow tasks and drive continuous improvement, which enhances claim and billing accuracy, strengthens data integrity, and reduces labor costs for providers.
Our software is used daily by providers of all types and sizes across the continuum of care, including physician practices, clinics, surgical centers, and laboratories, as well as large hospitals and health systems. We currently serve over 30,000 clients of various sizes, representing over one million distinct providers practicing across a variety of care sites, including 16 of the top 20 U.S. News Best Hospitals. Our business model aligns with our clients' growth; as they serve more patients, claims and transaction volumes increase, driving corresponding growth in our business. In addition, our clients frequently adopt a greater number of our solutions over time and introduce our solutions across new sites of care. In 2025, we facilitated over 7.5 billion healthcare payment transactions, including over $2.4 trillion in gross claims volume spanning approximately 60% of patients and one-in-three hospital discharges in the United States.
Our platform benefits from powerful network effects. Our cloud-based software is driven by a sophisticated, automated, and AI-powered engine to generate and incorporate real-time feedback from millions of network transactions processed through our platform each day. Every transaction we process provides additional data insights across providers, patients, and payers, which are embedded in updates that are deployed efficiently across our platform. This results in cumulative benefits to us over time. As we capture more data from each transaction we process, we leverage those insights to continuously improve the platform through Waystar AltitudeAI, our proprietary AI engine. Waystar AltitudeAI utilizes a multi-model approach that incorporates machine learning, large language models, and generative and agentic AI to automate complex workflows and deliver added value to our clients. In turn, the more value we create for our clients, the more likely it is that they will continue to use our products, allowing us to continue to capture more data that results in tangible improvements to our platform. As a result, our clients benefit from faster and more efficient performance from software that is evolving to meet ever-changing regulatory and payer requirements, enabling accurate and timely reimbursement.
We have demonstrated an ability to drive recurring, predictable, and profitable growth. Over 99% of our revenue is either recurring subscription or based on highly predictable volumes. For the 12 months ended June 30, 2026, our Net Revenue Retention Rate was 108.3%, and we have 1,453 clients as of June 30, 2026 generating over $100,000 over the same 12-month period. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we generated revenue of $633.5 million (reflecting a 20.2% increase compared to revenue of $527.1 million for the same period in the prior year), net income of $84.2 million (reflecting a 36.9% increase compared to net income of $61.5 million for the same period in the prior year), and Adjusted EBITDA of $272.1 million (reflecting a 23.5% increase compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $220.3 million for the same period in the prior year).
Secondary Offering
On February 24, 2025, the Institutional Investors closed an underwritten public offering of 23,000,000 shares of our common stock (inclusive of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares) (the “First Secondary Offering”). On May 15, 2025, the Institutional Investors closed another underwritten public offering of 14,375,000 shares of our common stock (inclusive of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares) (the “Second Secondary Offering”).
29
Table of Contents
Additionally, on September 10, 2025, the Institutional Investors closed another underwritten public offering of 18,000,000 shares of our common stock (the “Third Secondary Offering”). We did not sell any shares in these offerings or receive any proceeds from these offerings. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of June 10, 2024, by and among Waystar, the Institutional Investors, and certain other parties thereto, we paid $1.8 million and $3.2 million in certain expenses on behalf of the selling stockholders related to these offerings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, while the selling stockholders paid all applicable underwriting discounts and commissions.
Iodine Acquisition
On July 23, 2025, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") to acquire Iodine through a series of mergers. Iodine is a trusted leader in AI-powered clinical intelligence, enhancing clinical documentation and accuracy, streamlining utilization management, and preventing revenue leakage before billing. This strategic move is expected to bolster our AI leadership, automate manual work, and improve financial performance for providers. The acquisition was completed on October 1, 2025 for a total purchase price of $1.26 billion. The consideration paid was approximately $638.9 million in cash consideration and 16,639,920 shares of common stock having a value of $37.31 per share, and certain adjustments as outlined in the Merger Agreement.
Significant Items Affecting Comparability
We believe that the future growth and profitability of our business, and the comparability of our results from period to period, depend on numerous factors, including the following:
Our Ability to Expand our Relationship with Existing Clients
As our clients grow their businesses and provide more services and see more patients, our volume-based revenues also increase. In addition, our growth in revenues also depends on our ability to sell more products and solutions to existing clients, including through cross-selling as our clients adopt additional Waystar offerings as well as up-selling as our clients leverage our solutions across additional providers and sites of care.
Our Ability to Grow our Client Base
We are focused on continuing to grow our client base, which will depend in part on our ability to continue to maintain our product leadership, invest in our research and development team, and maintain our reputation and brand.
Timing and Number of Acquisitions
Since 2018, we have completed and successfully integrated 10 acquisitions, one of which was Iodine that closed in the fourth quarter of 2025. The historical results of operations of our acquisitions are only included starting from the date of closing of such acquisition. As a result, our consolidated statements of operations for any given period during which an acquisition closed may not be comparable to future periods, which would include the results of operations of such acquisition for the entirety of such future period.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
We primarily generate two types of revenue: (i) subscription revenue and (ii) volume-based revenue, which account for 99% of total revenue for all periods presented. We believe we have high visibility into our volume-based and subscription revenue from existing clients. We refer to the solutions our clients use to better process and understand their payment workflows from payers as provider solutions, and we refer to the products that assist healthcare providers in collecting payments from patients as patient payments solutions. We expect provider solutions will continue to generate the substantial majority of our total revenue, although the revenue mix attributable to patient payments solutions is expected to increase slightly over time.
•
Subscription revenue
. Reflects recurring monthly provider count fees and minimum amounts owed. The vast majority of subscription revenue is generated by provider solutions, which constituted approximately 70% of total revenue in each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
30
Table of Contents
•
Volume-based revenue
. Represents recurring fees associated with transaction count or dollar volumes in excess of minimums. Generally, approximately half of our volume-based revenue is generated from provider solutions that are based on transaction count, with the other half from patient payments solutions that are based on either dollar volumes or transaction count.
We also derive revenue from implementation fees for our software, as well as hardware sales to facilitate patient payments. Our implementation fees are billed upfront and the revenue is recognized ratably over the contractual term.
Cost of Revenue (Exclusive of Depreciation and Amortization)
Cost of revenue includes salaries, stock-based compensation, and benefits (“personnel costs”) for our team members who are focused on implementation, support, and other client-focused operations, as well as team members focused on enhancing and developing our platform. Cost of revenue also includes costs for third-party technology such as interchange fees and infrastructure related to the operations of our platform, including communicating and processing patient payments, and services to support the delivery of our solutions. Third-party costs for patient payments solutions are approximately 60% of the revenue generated from these solutions, while third-party costs for provider solutions are approximately 6% to 7% of the associated revenue, in each case, for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing costs consist primarily of personnel costs, internal sales commissions, channel partner fees, travel, and advertising costs.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist of personnel costs incurred in our corporate service functions such as finance expenses, legal, human resources, and information technology, as well as other professional service costs.
Research and Development
Research and development costs consist primarily of personnel costs for team members engaged in research and development activities as well as third-party fees. All such costs are expensed as incurred, except for capitalized software development costs.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization consists of the depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of certain intangible assets, including capitalized software.
Other Expense
Other expense consists primarily of interest expense and related-party interest expense, inclusive of the impact of interest rate swaps and net of interest income.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense includes current income tax and income tax credits from deferred taxes. Income tax expense is recognized in profit and loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in equity or other comprehensive income, in which case the income tax expense is also recognized in equity or other comprehensive income.

Revenue was
$319.7 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to
$270.7 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $49.0 million, or 18.1%, of which $45.2 million was attributed to subscription revenue from existing and acquired clients, almost all of which was generated by provider solutions. Another $3.9 million was attributed to volume-based revenue primarily related to the expansion of existing client usage, of which $5.9 million was generated by patient payments solutions, partially offset by a decrease of $2.1 million by provider solutions.
Cost of Revenue (Exclusive of Depreciation and Amortization)
Cost of revenue was $97.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $87.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $10.6 million, or 12.2%. The increase was primarily driven by $5.1 million in increased costs stemming from higher transaction volumes and associated third-party costs, including higher platform usage of which approximately $5.6 million was third-party costs associated with provider solutions, partially offset by a decrease of $0.5 million from third-party costs associated with patient solutions. Additionally, there was $4.0 million of increased personnel costs, net of capitalized expense.

Table of Contents
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expense was $50.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $43.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $6.9 million, or 15.7%. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in channel partner fees and amortization of the internal commission deferred contract costs asset of $3.6 million and increased personnel costs of $2.5 million.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expense was $36.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $29.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $7.2 million, or 24.6%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $2.5 million as well as increased personnel costs of $1.4 million. In addition, there was an impairment expense related to a right-of-use asset and leasehold improvements at an office we plan to exit (see Note 7) driving a $2.0 million increase.
Research and Development
Research and development expense was $17.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $12.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $5.1 million, or 40.4%. The increase was primarily due to increased personnel costs, net of capitalized expenses, of $4.5 million.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense was $41.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to $33.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $8.0 million, or 24.1%. The increase is primarily due to additional amortization from new Iodine intangible assets acquired on October 1, 2025.
Interest Expense, net
Total interest expense, net (including related party interest expense) was $19.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $18.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $1.4 million, or 7.6%. The increase was primarily driven by the additional balance borrowed under our First Lien Credit Facility to help fund the Iodine acquisition completed on October 1, 2025, resulting in an increase to the corresponding interest expense. This increase was partially offset by interest earned in our investment securities.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $15.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to income tax expense of $14.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $1.1 million. The increase was primarily driven by the increase in pre-tax income.

Sales and marketing expense was $96.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $83.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $12.6 million, or 15.0%. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in channel partner fees and amortization of the internal commission deferred contract costs asset totaling $7.2 million associated with revenue growth as well as increased personnel costs of $5.8 million.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expense was $67.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $52.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $14.6 million, or 27.8%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $7.1 million as well as increased personnel costs of $3.0 million. In addition, there was an impairment expense related to a right-of-use asset and leasehold improvements at an office we plan to exit (see Note 7) driving a $2.0 million increase.
Research and Development
Research and development expense was $36.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $23.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $12.4 million, or 52.3%. The increase was primarily driven by increased personnel costs, net of capitalized expenses, of $7.9 million, as well as increased software license expense of $1.5 million.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense was $82.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to $66.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $16.1 million, or 24.1%. The increase is primarily due to additional amortization from new Iodine intangible assets acquired on October 1, 2025.
Interest Expense, net
Total interest expense, net (including related party interest expense) was $40.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $37.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $3.1 million, or 8.4%. The increase was primarily driven by the additional balance borrowed on our First Lien Credit Facility to help fund the Iodine acquisition completed on October 1, 2025, resulting in an increase to the corresponding interest expense. This increase was partially offset by interest earned on our investment securities.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense of $32.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was relatively flat compared to income tax expense of $31.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $0.6 million.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP net income per share as supplemental measures of financial performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We believe they assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in highlighting trends in our operating performance, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, and capital investments. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to make budgeting decisions, to establish discretionary annual incentive compensation, and to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. Management supplements GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures to provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the business than GAAP results alone provide.
Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, non-GAAP net income, and non-GAAP net income per share are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, net income per share, or net income margin as measures of financial performance or cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or
35
Table of Contents
any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these measures are not intended to be a measure of free cash flow available for management’s discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements such as interest payments, tax payments, and debt service requirements. The presentations of these measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company. A reconciliation is provided below for our non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
We define adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, net, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, and as further adjusted for stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and integration costs, asset and lease impairments, costs related to amended debt agreements, costs related to our IPO and the Secondary Offerings, and costs related to other unusual, non-recurring or otherwise notable items. Adjusted EBITDA margin represents adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, adjustments related to additional lease costs due to the relocation of our Louisville office totaling $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and executive severance totaling $0.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively.
Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Net Income Per Share
We define non-GAAP net income as GAAP net income excluding the impact of stock-based compensation, acquisition and integration costs, asset and lease impairments, costs related to our IPO and the Secondary Offerings, costs related to amended debt agreements and amortization of intangibles, and costs related to other unusual, non-recurring or otherwise notable items. The tax effects of the adjustments are calculated using a management estimated annual effective non-GAAP tax rate of 21%, which is based on our statutory federal tax rate and provides consistency across interim reporting periods by eliminating the effects of non-recurring and period specific items. Due to the differences in the tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP net income, our estimated tax rate on non-GAAP net income may differ from our GAAP tax rate.

Non-GAAP net income per share is shown on both a basic and diluted basis and is defined as non-GAAP net income divided by the basic or diluted weighted-average shares, respectively.

Key Performance Metrics
Net Revenue Retention Rate
We also regularly monitor and review our Net Revenue Retention Rate.

Our Net Revenue Retention Rate compares 12 months of client invoices for our solutions at two period end dates. To calculate our Net Revenue Retention Rate, we first accumulate the total amount invoiced during the 12 months ending with the prior period-end, or Prior Period Invoices. We then calculate the total amount invoiced to those same clients for the 12 months ending with the current period-end, or Current Period Invoices. Current Period Invoices are inclusive of upsell, downsell, pricing changes, clients that cancel or choose not to renew, and discontinued solutions with continuing clients. The Net Revenue Retention Rate is then calculated by dividing the Current Period Invoices by the Prior Period Invoices. Our total invoices included in the analysis are greater than 98% of reported revenue. We use Net Revenue Retention Rate to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Acquired businesses are included in the last-12 month Net Revenue Retention Rate in the ninth quarter after acquisition, which is the earliest point that
37
Table of Contents
comparable post-acquisition invoices are available for both the current and prior 12-month period. Included within our net revenue retention rates for the 12 months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 is the impact from the heightened win rates above our historically high rates and accelerated implementation timelines related to the cybersecurity incident of one of our competitors in February 2024.
Customer Count with >$100,000 Revenue
We also regularly monitor and review our count of clients who generate more than $100,000 of revenue.
The following table sets forth our count of clients who generate more than $100,000 of revenue for the periods presented:

Our count of clients who generate more than $100,000 of revenue is based on an accumulation of the amounts invoiced to clients over the preceding 12 months. The invoices for acquired clients are included starting in the first full calendar quarter after the date of acquisition.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet current and future needs. Our expected primary uses on a short-term and long-term basis are for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, and investments in future growth, including acquisitions. We have historically funded our operations and acquisitions through our cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, and debt financings. We believe that our existing unrestricted cash on hand, expected future cash flows from operations, and additional borrowings will provide sufficient resources to fund our operating requirements, as well as future capital expenditures, debt service requirements, and investments in future growth for at least the next 12 months and beyond the next 12 months. To the extent additional funds are necessary to meet our long-term liquidity needs as we continue to execute our business strategy, we anticipate that they will be obtained through the incurrence of additional indebtedness, additional equity financings, or a combination of these potential sources of funds. In the event that we need access to additional cash, we may not be able to access the credit markets on commercially acceptable terms or at all. Our ability to fund future operating expenses and capital expenditures and our ability to meet future debt service obligations or refinance our indebtedness will depend on our future operating performance, which will be affected by general economic, financial, and other factors beyond our control, including those described under “Risk Factors” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
On June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had restricted cash of $32.8 million and $15.5 million, respectively, which consists of cash deposited in lockbox accounts owned by us which are contractually required to be disbursed to participating clients on the following day, as well as cash collected on behalf of healthcare providers from patients that have not yet been remitted to providers. These funds payable are not available for our use and liquidity, and are offset on our balance sheet by an aggregated funds payable liability.
Our liquidity is influenced by many factors, including timing of revenue and corresponding cash collections, the amount and timing of investments in strategic initiatives, our investments in property, equipment, and software, share repurchases, as well as other factors described under “Risk Factors” in the 2025 Form 10-K. Depending on the severity and direct impact of these factors on us, we may not be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $144.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $161.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of $16.7 million
.
This decrease was largely driven by deferred federal tax payments in 2025 as allowed by the IRS, as well changes in working capital. These decreases were partially offset by increases in revenue and profits.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $182.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $61.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of cash used of $120.4 million. Net cash used in investing activities increased primarily due to net investment activity for our securities, as well as more purchases of property and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash flows provided by financing activities was $6.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of $1.2 million. The primary driver of the decrease was due to common stock repurchased during the quarter (see Note 15), as well as a decrease in proceeds from issuance of common stock from employee equity plans. Also driving the decrease was the net impact of proceeds from amendment ro our Receivables Facility (see Note 11) and the corresponding paydown on our First Lien Credit Facility (see Note 12). These decreases were partially offset by an increase in restricted cash related to customers' cash deposited into our lockbox but contractually required to be disbursed to the participating clients (see Note 2 in our 2025 Form 10-K for details on restricted cash accounting policies).
Indebtedness
Refer to Item 1, Financial Statements, Notes 11 (Accounts Receivable Securitization) and 12 (Debt), for a description of our Credit Facilities.
Stock Repurchase Plan
On May 19, 2026, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase plan pursuant to which we may repurchase up to $200 million of shares of its outstanding common stock. Under the plan, we may repurchase shares from time to time using a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases or other methods, in accordance with applicable securities laws and regulations. The timing, price, and size of repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock, our financial performance and liquidity, general economic and market conditions, and other considerations. The stock repurchase plan does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The repurchase plan will be funded using our working capital.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The above discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make
39
Table of Contents
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Critical accounting policies are those that we consider to be the most important in portraying our financial condition and results of operations and also require the greatest amount of judgments by management. Judgments or uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions or using different assumptions.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Refer to Item 1, Financial Statements, Note 2 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies).
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to certain market risks arising from transactions in the normal course of our business. Such risks are principally associated with credit risk and interest rate risk.
Credit Risk
Credit risk involves the possibility that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or client contract, leading to a financial loss. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to our clients are limited due to our diversified client base.
We routinely assess the financial strength of our clients through a combination of third-party financial reports, credit monitoring, publicly available information, and direct communication with those clients. We establish payment terms with clients to mitigate credit risk and monitor its accounts receivable credit risk exposure. However, while we actively seek to mitigate credit risk, there can be no assurance that in the future we will be able to obtain credit risk insurance at commercially attractive terms or at all.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to interest rate risk is related to our First Lien Credit Facility, which bears interest at SOFR plus 2.00% as of June 30, 2026. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in the current effective rate would have had an impact on our interest expense of approximately $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026.
In order to limit exposure to risk, we maintain derivative instruments with creditworthy institutions to hedge against changing interest rate fluctuations. We utilize interest rate swap contracts and other non-derivative hedging instruments to manage such risk.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of such date. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Our business, results of operations, prospects, and financial condition may be materially adversely affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including those described in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" of the 2025 Form 10-K. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Risks Related to Information Technology Systems, Cybersecurity, Data Privacy, and Intellectual Property
We and our vendors are subject to attacks of such information technology systems, including cyber-attacks, security breaches, or other incidents impacting the information processed through our platform.
We collect, create, receive, maintain, process, use, transmit, disclose, transfer, alter, and store (collectively, “Process”) significant amounts of patients' personal information (including PHI) received in connection with the utilization of our platform and otherwise in connection with the operation of our business, as well as other sensitive, confidential, and proprietary information such as trade secrets, source code and payment data. Attacks on information technology systems are increasing in frequency, levels of persistence, sophistication, and intensity, and they are being conducted by increasingly sophisticated and organized groups and individuals, including state- sponsored organizations, with a wide range of motives and expertise. In addition to extracting personal information and other sensitive or confidential information, such attacks involve the deployment of harmful malware, ransomware, denial-of-service attacks, social engineering, and other means to affect service reliability and threaten the confidentiality, integrity, security, and availability of our information or information technology systems. The prevalent use of mobile devices also increases the risk of data security incidents. Further, like all internet-based solutions, our solutions are vulnerable to software bugs, computer viruses, malware, internet worms, break-ins, phishing attacks, attempts to overload servers with denial-of- service, or other attacks or similar disruptions from unauthorized use of our and third-party computer systems, any of which could lead to system interruptions, delays or shutdowns, loss of critical data, unauthorized acquisition of or access to data, or the compromise of our information technology systems.
We and certain of our third-party providers have experienced cyber-attacks and other incidents, and we expect such attacks and incidents to continue in varying degrees in the future. For example, in early June 2026, we identified the unauthorized acquisition of point-in-time copies of source code, primarily used for testing purposes, from a cloud-based repository hosted by a third-party provider and the unauthorized acquisition of four files of inactive data from a single application, which had been written to cloud-based storage pending its scheduled destruction. The incident was promptly contained and did not involve any access to active production systems or client data being processed by any active Waystar products. The application-related data and, we believe, the subset of source code in the third-party code repository platform used for testing purposes prior to 2023 included PHI and personally identifiable information associated with fewer than 1% of Waystar clients. We immediately activated incident response procedures, initiated an investigation, engaged leading external cybersecurity experts, notified law enforcement, and took steps to contain, assess, and remediate the incident. We are also in the process of communicating with the relevant clients and will comply with any applicable legal obligations. The incident did not impact the operation of our software solutions, the ability of clients to access our cloud-based software platform, or any functions of our financial and operating reporting systems.
While to date, we have no evidence that the affected information has been misused, the threat actor may use or disclose the information that was subject to unauthorized access and acquisition in a manner that adversely affects our business. We may also discover additional impacts of this or other incidents as part of that investigation. While our response efforts are ongoing, we believe this incident has not had, and is not reasonably likely to have, any material adverse effect on our operations or financial condition, and we expect that a portion of costs incurred relating to containing, investigating and remediating the incident will be reimbursed through insurance recoveries. Despite these expectations, there can be no assurances as to the ultimate impact of this incident, which may result in harm to our reputation and client relationships.
Techniques used to gain unauthorized access to or acquisitions of data and systems, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems, are constantly evolving (including through the use of AI), and we are unable to anticipate all techniques or comprehensively avoid unauthorized access, acquisitions of, or other adverse impacts to our data or our systems. AI-enabled tools provide threat actors with greater scale, efficiency and effectiveness than is possible through human action

Table of Contents
alone. Such tools are used to produce highly customized phishing campaigns through generative AI, polymorphic malware that adapts in real-time to a victim environment during deployment, and automated vulnerability identification and reconnaissance, among other things. We may not discover all such incidents or activity or be able to respond or otherwise address them promptly, in sufficient respects or at all. Any specific interruption or attack, any failure to maintain performance, reliability, security, and availability of our products, or failure to prevent software bugs and other corruptants such as those listed above, to the satisfaction of our clients or their patients, may harm our reputation and our ability to retain existing clients, negatively affect our clients and their patients, and adversely impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
In addition, some of our third-party service providers and vendors also Process confidential and sensitive information such as our clients’ data on our behalf. These service providers and vendors are subject to similar threats, including cyber-attacks, security incidents, and other malicious internet-based activities, which could also expose us to risk of loss, litigation, potential liability, and/or other costs. We have limited insight into the data privacy or security practices of third-party vendors and providers, including as it relates to our AI algorithms. We have also acquired and may continue to acquire companies that are vulnerable to cyber-attacks and security incidents and breaches, and we may be responsible for any such attacks, incidents, and breaches of these newly acquired companies.
Further, the security systems in place at our employees’, vendors’, and service providers’ offices and homes may be less secure than those used in our offices, and while we have implemented technical, physical, and administrative safeguards to help protect our systems when our employees, vendors, and service providers work from their offices, homes, and other remote locations, we may be subject to increased cybersecurity risk, which could expose us to risks of data or financial loss, and could disrupt our business operations. There is no guarantee that the data security and privacy safeguards we have put in place will ultimately be effective or that we will not encounter risks associated with employees, vendors, and service providers accessing company data and systems remotely.
A substantially adverse impact to the availability, integrity, or confidentiality of our information technology systems or data, or the information technology systems or data of third parties upon which we rely, could require us to expend significant resources to mitigate the breach of security, pay any applicable fines, and address matters related to any such breach, including notifying impacted individuals, the media, or regulators, making public disclosures, and addressing reputational harm.
Additionally, any such event could result in fines, legal claims, or proceedings, including regulatory investigations and class actions, or liability for failure to comply with privacy and information security laws, which could disrupt our operations, damage our reputation, and expose us to claims from clients, individuals, and others, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The costs of mitigating data security risks are significant and are likely to increase in the future. Although we carry cybersecurity insurance, we cannot ensure our limits are sufficient to cover us against all potential losses for damages or fines in an amount exceeding our policy limits, or that applicable insurance will be available to us in the future on economically reasonable terms or at all.
