Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition. OnNovember 9, 2020 ,ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release announcing its financial results as of and for the periods endedSeptember 30, 2020 . A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report and is incorporated herein by reference. Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review. OnNovember 5, 2020 , the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Audit Committee"), after discussion with management of the Company andKPMG LLP , the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, concluded that the Company's previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods endedJune 30, 2020 included in the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with theSecurities and Exchange Commission onAugust 11, 2020 (the "Second Quarter 10-Q") should no longer be relied upon. In connection with the preparation of the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods endedSeptember 30, 2020 , the Company reviewed its determination of a tax benefit of approximately$21.6 million related to the difference between the GAAP basis and tax basis of partnerships owned by corporations within the Company's corporate structure recorded during the quarterly period endedJune 30, 2020 in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods endedJune 30, 2020 . In the Company's current judgement, it should not have recorded the tax benefit. The impact of this change is expected to (i) increase the Company's net loss for the quarterly period endedJune 30, 2020 from$56.2 million to$77.9 million ; (ii) increase the Company's net loss per share of Class A and Class C common stock for the periods endedJune 30, 2020 from$0.21 and$0.22 per share, on a basic and diluted basis, respectively, to$0.30 and$0.30 per share, respectively; (iii) decrease the Company's deferred tax assets as ofJune 30, 2020 by$62.3 million ; (iv) decrease the Company's tax receivable agreements liability as ofJune 30, 2020 by$11.0 million ; (v) increase the Company's deferred tax liabilities as ofJune 30, 2020 by$10.9 million ; (vi) decrease the Company's recorded additional paid-in capital as ofJune 30, 2020 by$40.5 million ; (vii) decrease the Company's retained earnings balance as ofJune 30, 2020 by$14.0 million ; and (viii) decrease the Company's non-controlling interests balance as ofJune 30, 2020 by$7.7 million . This change is not expected to impact the Company's previously disclosed net cash provided by operating activities, net cash used in investing activities, net cash provided by financing activities, or historical non-GAAP financial metrics with respect to the three and six month periods endedJune 30, 2020 . As disclosed in the Second Quarter 10-Q, in connection with the audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year endedDecember 31, 2019 , the Company's management and auditors determined that a material weakness existed in the Company's internal control over financial reporting due to limited accounting department personnel capable of appropriately accounting for complex transactions undertaken by the Company. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As part of the Company's efforts to remediate the material weakness, the Company hired additional accounting and tax personnel during the third and fourth quarters of 2020. While the Company continues to take remediation steps, including hiring additional personnel, the Company's management has concluded that the material weakness has not been remediated.
