Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On March 2, 2022, Clearwater Analytics Holdings, Inc. ("Clearwater") issued a press release announcing its results for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

The information in this current report on Form 8-K and the exhibits attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly provided by specific reference in such a filing.

Clearwater is making reference to the non-GAAP financial information in both the press release and its earnings call. Reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is contained in the attached press release.

Item 8.01 Other Events

Lock-Up Release Date

In connection with the initial public offering of Class A common stock (the “IPO”), Clearwater and its executive officers, directors and holders of substantially all of our common stock entered into lock-up agreements with the underwriters that restrict their ability to sell or transfer their shares, or otherwise engage in certain transactions related to their shares, for a period of 180 days after September 23, 2021. Such period is referred to as the lock-up period.

Pursuant to the lock-up agreements with the underwriters, if (i) at least 120 days have elapsed since September 23, 2021, (ii) Clearwater has publicly released earnings results for the quarterly period during which the IPO occurred and (iii) such lock-up period is scheduled to end during or within five trading days prior to a broadly applicable and regularly scheduled period during which trading in Clearwater’s securities would not be permitted under its insider trading policy (the “blackout period”), such lock-up period will end ten trading days prior to the commencement of such blackout period.

The lockup period is scheduled to end during a blackout period. Therefore, in accordance with the lock-up agreements with the underwriters, the lock-up period will end as to all shares subject to the lock-up agreement and such shares will become eligible for sale in the public market at the open of trading on March 7, 2022, subject to trading limitations on such shares held by affiliates of Clearwater, continued vesting of any unvested equity awards as of such date, and Clearwater’s insider trading policy.
