What it owns
What ZoomInfo reports owning in its annual reports to the SEC: buildings, land and equipment, real estate and locations, investments, intangible assets and inventory, at the end of its latest fiscal year and a year before.
Our corporate headquarters is located in Vancouver, Washington and consists of approximately 0.1 million square feet of occupied space under a lease agreement that expires on May 31, 2041.
We maintain additional offices in Waltham, Massachusetts; Bethesda, Maryland; Austin, Texas; Ra’anana, Israel; Toronto, Canada; Chennai, India; Bangalore, India; Dublin, Ireland and London, England.
The rest of Item 2
We lease all of our facilities and do not own any real property. Our infrastructure operates out of third-party data centers hosted by Google and Amazon Web Services.
We believe our facilities are adequate and suitable for our current needs. We intend to add incremental facilities or expand existing facilities as we continue to expand geographically, and we believe that suitable additional or substitute space will be available as needed to accommodate any such expansion of our operations. In certain geographies, we anticipate that we will endeavor to sublease some of our committed space where the lease provides more space than we will require during certain periods of the lease.
In 2007, DiscoverOrg was founded by Henry Schuck and Kirk Brown. In February 2019, it acquired its competitor, Zoom Information, Inc. and rebranded as ZoomInfo. DiscoverOrg's CEO Henry Schuck, CFO Cameron Hyzer, and Chief Revenue Officer Chris Hays kept their roles. Zoom Information was established in 2000 as Eliyon Technologies by founders Yonatan Stern and Michel Decary, and in August 2017 was acquired by Great Hill Partners, a private equity firm, for $240 million.
ZoomInfo has traded on the Nasdaq stock exchange since 2020. The company changed its ticker symbol from “ZI” to "GTM" in May 2025.
The company was accused of investors fraud in a 2024 lawsuit, and breach of fiduciary duties to its shareholders in 2026.
Acquisitions
In 2017, as DiscoverOrg, the company acquired RainKing and in 2018, NeverBounce and Datanyze. In 2019, ZoomInfo acquired Komiko and in 2020, Clickagy and EverString Technology. In 2021, ZoomInfo acquired Insent, Chorus.ai, and RingLead. In 2026, ZoomInfo acquired DoubleO.ai.
Zoominfo is subject to multiple lawsuits for illegally collecting and selling personal data without consent, misleading investors and artificially inflating its stock price. Zoominfo is accused of "omitting truthful information about the company’s customer base, its subscription renewal practices, and other issues from SEC filings and related material" in the latter lawsuit.

Risk factors and legal proceedings
The risks ZoomInfo names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 12, 2026: 40 risks under these headings, as written.17
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
Our current and potential customers may reduce spending on sales, marketing, recruiting and other technology and information as a result of weaker economic conditions, which could harm our revenue, results of operations, and cash flows.
We may be unable to attract new customers, renew existing subscriptions, expand subscriptions of current customers, and collect revenue from our customers, which could harm our revenue growth, cash flows, and profitability.
If we are not able to obtain and maintain accurate, comprehensive, or reliable data, we could experience reduced demand for our products and services, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Other technology companies, including various small and medium-sized businesses who focus on B2B sales and marketing intelligence, have become, and larger and better-funded companies with significant resources may shift their existing business models to become, more competitive with us.
We experience competition from other companies and technologies that allow businesses to gather and aggregate sales, marketing, recruiting, and other data, and we may in the future face competition from prominent large-language-model (LLM) providers and generative AI companies, and any of their competing products and services could provide greater appeal to our customers.
Our business is, and the markets in which we compete are, rapidly evolving, including with respect to AI and AI-enabled products, which make it difficult to forecast demand for our services and achieve an optimal resource allocation strategy, as we may not be able to effectively monetize our AI investments.
Our platform integrates or otherwise works with third-party systems that we do not control.
Our business could be negatively affected by changes in search engine algorithms, including search engine optimization (SEO), artificial intelligence optimization (AIO), and other traffic-generating arrangements and dynamics.
We depend on our executive officers and other key employees, and the loss of one or more of these employees or an inability to attract, integrate, and retain these and other highly skilled employees could harm our business.
If we fail to maintain, upgrade, or implement adequate operational and financial resources, including our IT systems, we may be unable to execute our business plan.
As we acquire and invest in companies or technologies, we may not realize expected business or financial benefits and the acquisitions or investments could prove difficult to integrate, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value, and adversely affect our business, results of operation, and financial condition.
The other 29 risks
Sustainability and related reporting obligations, expose us to risks that could adversely affect our reputation and performance.
Risks Related to Privacy, Technology, and Security
Changes in laws, regulations, and public perception concerning data privacy, or changes in the patterns of enforcement of existing laws and regulations, could impact our ability to efficiently gather, process, update, and/or provide some or all of the information we currently provide or the ability of our customers and users to use some or all of our products or services.
We may be subject to litigation for any variety of claims, which could harm our reputation and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
New or changing laws and regulations may diminish the demand for our platform, restrict access to our platform, constrain the range of services we can provide, or require us to disclose or provide access to information in our possession, which could harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We may not be able to adequately protect or enforce our proprietary and intellectual property rights in our data or technology.
Our customers or unauthorized parties could use our products and services in a manner that is contrary to our values or applicable law, which could harm our relationships with consumers, customers, or employees or expose us to litigation or harm our reputation.
Cyber-attacks and security vulnerabilities could result in serious harm to our reputation, business, and financial condition.
Technical problems or disruptions that affect our customers’ ability to access our services, or the software, internal applications, database, and network systems underlying our services, could damage our reputation and brands and lead to reduced demand for our products and services, lower revenues, and increased costs.
Risks Related to Financial, Accounting and Credit Matters
We generate revenue from sales of subscriptions to our platform and data, and any decline in demand for the types of products and services we offer would negatively impact our business.
Our failure to raise additional capital or generate cash flows necessary to expand our operations and invest in new technologies in the future could reduce our ability to compete successfully and harm our results of operations.
Failure to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of SOX could impair our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations and have a material adverse effect on our business.
Because we recognize subscription revenue over the subscription term, downturns or upturns in new sales and renewals are not immediately reflected in full within our results of operations.
We anticipate increasing operating expenses in the future, and we may not be able to maintain profitability.
We have a significant amount of goodwill and intangible assets on our balance sheet, and our results of operations may be adversely affected if we fail to realize the full value of our goodwill and intangible assets.
We have a substantial amount of debt, which could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to raise additional capital and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations.
We may not be able to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness, and may be forced to take other actions to satisfy our obligations under our indebtedness, which may not be successful.
Interest rate fluctuations may affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Changes in our credit and other ratings could adversely impact our operations and lower our profitability.
Risks Related to Taxation
We are a multinational organization faced with increasingly complex tax issues in many jurisdictions, and global tax developments may have a material impact to our business, cash flows, tax liabilities and results of operations.
Changes in tax laws or regulations applicable to our business, including for example, the enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act on July 4, 2025, have in the past, and may in the future, result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
Our results of operations may be adversely affected if we are required to collect sales or other related taxes for purchases of our products and services in jurisdictions where we have not historically done so.
Risks Related to Geopolitical and Macroeconomic Factors
Operations and sales outside the United States expose us to risks inherent in international operations.
Global economic uncertainty and catastrophic events, including global pandemics, continued hostilities between Russia and Ukraine, and Israel and Hamas, as well as other geopolitical conflicts, have and may disrupt our business and adversely impact our business and future results of operations and financial condition.
Risks Related to Our Organizational Structure
ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. is a holding company, its only material assets are its interests in ZoomInfo Intermediate Inc. and ZoomInfo Holdings LLC, and ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. is accordingly dependent upon distributions from ZoomInfo Intermediate Inc. and its subsidiaries to pay taxes, make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreements, and pay dividends.
ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. is required to pay our Pre-IPO Owners for most of the benefits relating to any additional tax deductions and tax attributes that we may claim as a result of the ZoomInfo Tax Group’s share of existing tax basis acquired in the IPO and increases in its share of existing tax basis, including tax basis received in connection with sales or exchanges of units of ZoomInfo Holdings LLC that occurred after the IPO.
In certain cases, payments under our Tax Receivable Agreements may be accelerated and/or significantly exceed the actual benefits the ZoomInfo Tax Group realizes in respect of the tax attributes subject to such agreements.
The acceleration of payments under our Tax Receivable Agreements in the case of certain changes of control may impair our ability to consummate change of control transactions or negatively impact the value received by owners of our common stock.
Risks Related to the Ownership of Our Common Stock
Certain parties to our stockholders agreement continue to have influence over us, and their interests may conflict with ours or yours in the future.
Anti-takeover provisions in our organizational documents and Delaware law might discourage or delay acquisition attempts for us that you might consider favorable.
