• | Forrester, Cvent Thought Leadership Study: Data Review, February 22, 2021, which was commissioned by Cvent; |
• | Frost & Sullivan, Hospitality Cloud GLOBAL TAM 2021/2022, April 2021, which was commissioned by Cvent; and |
• | Frost & Sullivan, Events Technology GLOBAL TAM 2021/2022, April 2021, which was commissioned by Cvent. |
• | Cvent is substantially dependent upon the addition of new customers and the continued growth of the market for its event marketing and management solutions; |
• | Cvent’s Hospitality Cloud business depends on maintaining and expanding its relationships with hotels and venues; |
• | Data published by third parties and internally generated data and assumptions may prove to be inaccurate. In particular, the estimates of market opportunity and forecasts of market growth included in this prospectus may prove to be inaccurate, and even if the market in which Cvent competes achieves the forecasted growth, Cvent’s business could fail to grow at similar rates, if at all; |
• | If the security of Cvent or its customers’ confidential or personal information stored in Cvent’s or its third-party service providers’ systems is breached or otherwise subjected to unauthorized access, Cvent’s business could be materially and adversely affected, its reputation may be severely harmed and it may be exposed to liability. |
• | Cvent has indemnity provisions under its contracts with its customers, vendors, lessors, business partners and other parties, which could have a material adverse effect on Cvent’s business. |
• | Cvent faces significant competition from established and new companies offering event marketing and management software. |
• | Disruption of Cvent’s operations, infrastructure or systems, or disruption of the operations, infrastructure or systems of the third parties on which Cvent relies, could damage Cvent’s reputation and result in credits to customers or a loss of users, which would harm Cvent’s business and operating results. |
• | Cvent’s business depends substantially on renewing agreements with existing customers and selling additional solutions to them. Any decline in—or failure to grow—Cvent’s customer renewals or expansions would likely harm its future operating results. |
• | Cvent targets large customers, and sales to these customers involve risks that may not be present or are present to a lesser extent with sales to smaller customers. Large customers often demand more configuration and integration services, or customized features and functions that Cvent may not offer. Failure to secure large new customers, deepen its penetration of its large customer base or the loss of large customers would have an adverse effect on Cvent’s annual recurring revenue (“ARR”), business and operating results. |
• | Cvent’s net dollar retention rate may decline or fluctuate. |
• | Cvent’s business is substantially dependent upon the continued strength of the market for on-demand software solutions. |
• | If Cvent loses access to third-party licenses, Cvent’s software product development and production may be delayed or it may incur additional expense to modify Cvent’s products or products in development. |
• | If Cvent fails to comply with its obligations under license or technology agreements with third parties, Cvent may be required to pay damages and Cvent could lose license rights that are critical to its business. |
• | Cvent has experienced rapid growth and significant organizational change in recent periods and expect continued future growth, both organically and by acquisitions. If Cvent fails to manage its growth effectively, it may be unable to execute its business plan, maintain high levels of service or address competitive challenges adequately. |
• | Failure to adequately expand Cvent’s sales force will impede its growth. |
• | In the past Cvent has completed acquisitions and may acquire or invest in other companies or technologies in the future, which could divert management’s attention, fail to meet its expectations, result in additional dilution to Cvent’s stockholders, increase expenses, disrupt its operations and harm its operating results. |
• | Cvent’s long-term success depends, in part, on its ability to operate offices located outside of the United States, including India. |
• | Cvent’s business is susceptible to declines or disruptions in the demand for meetings and events, including those due to economic downturns, natural disasters, geopolitical upheaval and global pandemics. |
• | Cvent is dependent in part upon its relationships with its strategic partners to sustain the flow of RFPs, through the Hospitality Cloud. |
• | Cvent relies on third-party mobile application platforms such as the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store to distribute its mobile applications. Cvent’s business will suffer if it is unable to maintain a good relationship with such platform providers, if their terms and conditions or pricing change to our detriment, if it violates, or if a platform provider believes that it has violated, the terms and conditions of its platform, or if any of these platforms are unavailable for a prolonged period of time. |
• | Cvent has experienced losses in the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and in prior years, and Cvent may not achieve profitability in the future. |
• | If Cvent does not continue to innovate and provide solutions that are useful to Cvent’s customers and event registrants and attendees, Cvent may not remain competitive, and its revenue and operating results could suffer. |
• | Cvent’s sales cycle can be lengthy and unpredictable, which may cause its operating results to vary significantly. |
• | Cvent relies on the performance of highly skilled personnel, including senior management and its sales and technology professionals; if Cvent is unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire, retain and motivate qualified personnel, Cvent’s business would be harmed. |
• | Cvent’s ability to introduce new products and features is dependent on adequate research and development resources. If Cvent does not adequately fund its research and development efforts, Cvent may not be able to compete effectively and its business and operating results may be harmed. |
• | Seasonality may cause fluctuations in Cvent’s revenue, sales, billings, cash flow, operating expenses and operating results. |
• | If Cvent fails to offer high-quality customer support, its business and reputation would suffer. |
• | Cvent’s business could be adversely affected if its users are not satisfied with the deployment, training and support services provided by Cvent and its partners. |

Item 17. |
Undertakings |
(1) | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
(a) | To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
(b) | To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and |
(c) | To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. |
(2) | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
(3) | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
(4) | That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: |
(i) | Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned Registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; |
(ii) | Any “free writing prospectus” relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; |
(iii) | The portion of any other “free writing prospectus” relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned Registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and |
(iv) | Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned Registrant to the purchaser. |
(5) | Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions set forth or described in Item 14 of this registration statement, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |
