Management's discussion and analysis

As filed, 36,598 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of our operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 19, 2026. In addition to historical consolidated financial information, this discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in any subsequent filing we make with the SEC.

Overview

The Workiva platform powers trust, transparency, and accountability. Accounting, finance, sustainability, risk, and audit teams from more than 6,600 organizations worldwide, including over 85% of FORTUNE® 1,000 companies, rely on Workiva for their mission-critical work. We transform how customers connect data, unify processes, and empower teams in a secure, audit-ready, AI-powered, collaborative platform.

From data to disclosure, the Workiva platform empowers customers by connecting and transforming data from hundreds of enterprise resource planning (“ERP”), human capital management (“HCM”), and customer relationship management (“CRM”) systems, as well as other third-party cloud and on-premise applications. Customers use our platform to create, review and publish data-linked documents, presentations, and reports with greater control, consistency, accuracy, and productivity. Our platform is flexible and scalable, so customers can easily adapt it to define, automate, and change their business processes in real time.

While our customers use our platform for more than 100 different use cases, across dozens of vertical industries, we organize our sales and marketing resources into three purpose-built solution groups (financial reporting, sustainability management, and governance, risk and compliance (“GRC”)) focusing primarily on the office of the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), Chief Sustainability Officer (“CSO”), and Chief Audit Executive (“CAE”).

We operate our business on a SaaS model. Customers enter into annual and multi-year subscription contracts to gain access to our platform. Our subscription fee includes the use of our software and technical support. Our subscription pricing is based primarily on a solution-based licensing model. Under this model, operating metrics related to a customer’s expected use of each solution determine the price. We charge customers additional fees primarily for document setup and XBRL tagging services.

We generate sales primarily through our direct sales force. In addition, we augment our direct sales channel with partnerships. Our advisory and service partners offer a wider range of domain and functional expertise that broadens the capabilities of our platform, bringing scale and support to customers and prospects. Our technology partners enable more data and process integrations to help customers connect critical transactional systems directly to our platform.

We continue to invest in the development of our solutions, infrastructure and sales and marketing to drive long-term growth. Our full-time employee headcount expanded to 2,880 at March 31, 2026 from 2,873 at March 31, 2025, an increase of 0.2%.

We have achieved significant revenue growth in recent periods. Our revenue grew to $247.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $206.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. We generated net income of $19.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to net loss of $21.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

We continue to invest for future growth and are focused on several key drivers, including our connected AI-powered platform, fit-for-purpose solutions, global expansion, and our partner ecosystem. These growth drivers often require a more sophisticated go-to-market approach and, as a result, we may incur additional costs upfront to obtain new customers and expand our relationships with existing customers, including additional sales and marketing expenses.

Effects of Policy and Regulatory Uncertainty

Sales of our sustainability management solutions have been, and may continue to be, materially impacted by domestic and global policy uncertainties. Shifts in regulatory priorities, market sentiment, and legal challenges to sustainability-related rules and regulations are affecting our market expansion opportunities in the U.S. and abroad. For example, on February 25, 2025, the European Commission unveiled the first “Omnibus” package to advance EU competitiveness and simplification of rules on sustainability. Among other measures, the package proposed streamlining key sustainability frameworks. On December 16, 2025, the European Parliament adopted the Omnibus Directive, which is part of the first Omnibus simplification package. The Council of the European Union formally adopted the resulting directive on February 24, 2026, and the Omnibus Directive was published in the Official Journal of the European Union on February 26, 2026, entering into force on March 18, 2026. The Omnibus Directive revises scoping thresholds, removes the climate transition plan requirement, and implements targeted amendments across the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (“CSRD”). The adoption resulted in substantive amendments to the CSRD. We believe that the revised thresholds under these amendments have influenced the pace of customer adoption of our sustainability solutions. The potential impact on our growth trajectory of these changes, and of global policy uncertainty generally, cannot be accurately predicted.

Ongoing regulatory initiatives, including proposed changes to SEC reporting requirements intended to reduce burdens on public companies and enhance the attractiveness of capital markets, such as a potential shift in reporting frequency, could affect the performance of certain of our businesses. These developments may have positive or negative impacts on our business, but the scope and timing of any effects remain uncertain. We continue to monitor regulatory developments and assess potential effects across our business. The full scope of these potential regulatory developments, and their implications for our financial performance, cannot be predicted accurately at this time.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

Generate Growth From Existing Customers. The Workiva platform can exhibit a powerful network effect within an enterprise, meaning that the usefulness of our platform attracts additional users. Since solution-based licensing offers our customers an unlimited number of seats for each solution purchased, we expect customers to add more seats over time. As more employees in an enterprise use our platform, additional opportunities for collaboration and automation drive demand among their colleagues for additional solutions.

Pursue New Customers. We sell to organizations that manage large, complex processes with distributed teams of contributors and disparate sets of business data. We market our platform to professionals and executives in the areas of financial and non-financial reporting, including regulatory, multi-entity and management reporting. In addition, we market to teams responsible for sustainability management and GRC programs. We intend to continue to build our sales and marketing organization and leverage our brand equity to attract new customers.

Offer More Solutions. We intend to introduce new solutions to continue to meet growing demand for our platform. Our close and trusted relationships with our customers are a source for new use cases, features and solutions. We have a disciplined process for tracking, developing and releasing new solutions that are designed to have immediate, broad applicability, together with a strong value proposition and high return on investment for both Workiva and our customers. Our advance planning team assesses customer needs, conducts industry-based research and defines new markets. This vetting process involves our sales, product marketing, customer success, professional services, research and development, finance and senior management teams.

Expand Across Enterprises. Our success in delivering multiple solutions has created demand from customers for a broader-based, enterprise-wide Workiva platform. In response, we have been improving our technology and realigning sales and marketing to capitalize on our growing enterprise-wide opportunities. We believe this expansion will add new users, increase revenue and continue to support our high revenue retention rates. However, we expect that enterprise-wide deals will be larger and more complex, which tend to lengthen the sales cycle.

Add Partners. We continue to expand and deepen our relationships with global and regional partners, including consulting firms, system integrators, large and mid-sized independent software vendors, and implementation partners. Our advisory and service partners offer a wider range of domain and functional expertise that broadens our platform’s capabilities and promotes Workiva as part of the digital transformation projects they drive for their customers. Our technology partners enable powerful data and process integrations to help customers connect critical transactional systems directly to our platform, with powerful linking, auditability and control features. We believe that our partner ecosystem extends our global reach, accelerates the usage and adoption of our platform, and enables more efficient delivery of professional services.

Investment in growth. We plan to continue to invest in the development of our platform, fit-for-purpose solutions and application marketplace to enhance our current offerings and build new features. In addition, we expect to continue to invest in our sales, marketing, professional services and customer success organizations to drive additional revenue and support the needs of our growing customer base and to take advantage of opportunities that we have identified in Europe, the Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") and Asia-Pacific ("APAC") regions.

Seasonality. Our revenue from professional services has some degree of seasonality. Many of our customers employ our professional services just before they file their Form 10-K, often in the first calendar quarter. Our operating cash flow may be affected by the timing of employee cash bonus payments during the first and fourth calendar quarters and by the timing of payouts under our commission plans in the first quarter.

Gross retention rate 97.3% 97.3%
Net retention rate 112.4% 110.1%
Number of customers with annual contract value $100k+ 2,575 2,079
Number of customers with annual contract value $300k+ 605 439
Number of customers with annual contract value $500k+ 265 191

Total customers. We believe total number of customers is a key indicator of our financial success and future revenue potential. We define a customer as an entity with an active subscription contract as of the measurement date. We define a customer as a separate and distinct buying entity, such as a company, a government institution, or a distinct business unit of a large company that has an active contract with us or one of our partners to access our platforms. Companies with publicly-listed securities account for a majority of our customers. As customers acquired through our Sustain.Life acquisition in 2024 renew their contracts with Workiva, they are added to our customer count above.

Gross retention rate. Our gross retention rate is based on subscription and support revenue. We calculate our gross retention rate based on all customers that were active at the end of the same calendar quarter of the prior year (“base customers”). We begin by annualizing the subscription and support revenue recorded in the same calendar quarter of the prior year for those base customers who are still active at the end of the current quarter. We divide the result by the annualized subscription and support revenue in the same quarter of the prior year for all base customers. We believe gross retention rates are an important metric to track how the Company retains its base revenue for each year.

Our gross retention rate was 97.3% as of March 31, 2026, flat from March 31, 2025. We believe that our success in maintaining a high rate of revenue retention is attributable primarily to our robust technology platform and strong customer service. Customers whose securities were deregistered due to merger or acquisition or financial distress accounted for over half of our revenue attrition in the latest quarter.

Net retention rate. Our net retention rate is based on subscription and support revenue, and includes revenue from up-selling or cross-selling additional solutions, and pricing changes for existing customers and securing multi-year contract renewals containing periodic pricing term increases. We calculate our net retention rate by annualizing the subscription and support revenue recorded in the current quarter for our base customers that were active at the end of the current quarter. We divide the result by the annualized subscription and support revenue in the same quarter of the prior year for all base customers. We believe our net retention rate is an important metric to measure the long-term value of customer agreements and our ability to retain our customers.

Our net retention rate including add-ons was 112.4% as of the quarter ended March 31, 2026, up from 110.1% as of March 31, 2025.

Annual contract value. Our annual contract value (“ACV”) for each customer is calculated by annualizing the subscription and support revenue recognized during each quarter. We believe the increase in the number of larger contracts shows our progress in expanding our customers’ adoption of our platform. As customers acquired through our Sustain.Life acquisition in 2024 renew their contracts with Workiva, they are incorporated into our ACV metrics in the following table.

Three months ended March 31, 2026 2025
Subscription and support revenue from customers with annual contract value of $100k+ as a percent of total subscription and support revenue 79.9% 74.1%
Subscription and support revenue from customers with annual contract value of $300k+ as a percent of total subscription and support revenue 43.8% 38.4%
Subscription and support revenue from customers with annual contract value of $500k+ as a percent of total subscription and support revenue 29.5% 25.9%

Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

We generate revenue through the sale of subscriptions to our cloud-based software and the delivery of professional services. We serve a wide range of customers in many industries, and our revenue is not concentrated with any single customer or small group of customers. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, no single customer represented more than 1% of our revenue, and our largest 10 customers accounted for less than 10% of our revenue in the aggregate.

We generate sales directly through our sales force and partners. We also identify some sales opportunities with existing customers through our customer success and professional services teams.

Our customer contracts typically range in length from 12 to 36 months. We typically invoice our customers for subscription fees annually in advance. For contracts with a two or three year term, customers sometimes elect to pay the entire multi-year subscription term in advance. Our arrangements do not contain general rights of return.

Subscription and Support Revenue. We recognize subscription and support revenue on a ratable basis over the contract term beginning on the date that our service is made available to the customer. Amounts that are invoiced are initially recorded as deferred revenue.

Professional Services Revenue. We believe our professional services facilitate the sale of our subscription service to certain customers. To date, most of our professional services have consisted of document set up, XBRL tagging, and consulting to help our customers with business processes and best practices for using our platform. Our professional services are not required for customers to utilize our solution. We recognize revenue for document set up when the service is complete and control has transferred to the customer. Revenue from XBRL tagging and consulting services are recognized as the services are performed.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists primarily of personnel and related costs directly associated with our professional services, customer success teams and training personnel, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, travel, and stock-based compensation; the costs of contracted third-party vendors; the costs of third-party hosting fees for server usage by our customers; information technology costs; and facility costs.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, commissions, travel, and stock-based compensation. Other costs included in this expense are marketing and promotional events, our annual user conference, online marketing, product marketing, information technology costs, and facility costs. We pay sales commissions for initial contracts and expansions of existing customer contracts. When the relevant amortization period is one year or less, we expense sales commissions as incurred. All other sales commissions are considered incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of benefit that we have determined to be three years.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, travel, and stock-based compensation; costs of third-party hosting fees for server usage by our developers; information technology costs; and facility costs.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs for our executive, finance and accounting, legal, human resources, and administrative personnel, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, travel, and stock-based compensation; legal, accounting, and other professional service fees; other corporate expenses; information technology costs; and facility costs.

Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025

Revenue

(dollars in thousands)

Revenue Three months ended March 31, 2026 2025 % Change
Subscription and support $225,355 $185,512 21.5%
Professional services 21,951 20,768 5.7%
Total revenue $247,306 $206,280 19.9%

Total revenue increased $41.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same quarter a year ago due to a $39.8 million increase in subscription and support revenue. Growth in subscription and support revenue in the first quarter was attributable mainly to strong demand and continued solution expansion across our customer base. Revenue from professional services increased $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same quarter a year ago primarily due to XBRL services. We continue to transition consulting and other services to our partners and expect the revenue growth rate from subscription and support to continue to outpace revenue growth from professional services on an annual basis.

Cost of Revenue

(dollars in thousands)

Cost of revenue Three months ended March 31, 2026 2025 % Change
Subscription and support $35,183 $34,062 3.3%
Professional services 13,362 14,280 (6.4)%
Total cost of revenue $48,545 $48,342 0.4%

Cost of revenue increased $0.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same quarter a year ago. Subscription and support cost of revenue increased $1.1 million due primarily to $0.2 million in higher cash-based compensation and benefits costs, $0.4 million of additional stock-based compensation, and a $0.4 million increase in the cost of licensed platform content. The change in compensation was primarily driven by normal compensation increases for existing headcount and was partially offset by reduced expenses of $0.8 million recognized as a result of our transition from a paid-time-off (“PTO”) model to a flexible-time-off (“FTO”) model which was announced in the second half of 2025 and became effective in 2026 as well as a benefit of $0.4 million for a change in the timing of employer 401(k) match contributions in 2026. The increase in the cost of licensed platform content resulted primarily from our continued investment in and support of our platform and solutions. Professional services cost of revenue decreased $0.9 million due primarily to a $0.9 million decrease in cash-based compensation and benefits costs partially offset by $0.2 million of additional stock-based compensation. The change in compensation was primarily driven by reduced expenses of $0.5 million recognized as a result of our transition from a PTO model to a FTO model as well as a benefit of $0.2 million for a change in the timing of employer 401(k) match.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses decreased $0.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same quarter a year ago due primarily to a $0.3 million decrease in cash-based compensation and benefits costs, a $0.3 million decrease in travel expense, and a $0.6 million decrease in internal event costs partially offset by $0.4 million of additional stock-based compensation and a $0.5 million increase in professional service fees. The change in compensation was primarily driven by a modest increase in employee headcount and was offset by reduced expenses of $2.0 million recognized as a result of our transition from a PTO model to a FTO model which was announced in the second half of 2025 and became effective in 2026 as well as a benefit of $0.6 million for a change in the timing of employer 401(k) match contributions in 2026. The decrease in travel expense and internal event costs relates to our annual research and development event which spanned the first and second quarters of 2025 but will be held in the second quarter of 2026. The increase in professional service fees resulted primarily from our continued investment in and support of our platform and solutions.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses increased $2.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same quarter a year ago due primarily to $3.6 million in higher cash-based compensation and benefits costs, a $0.7 million increase in marketing and advertising, and a $0.5 million increase in professional service fees partially offset by a $1.3 million decrease in internal event costs and a $0.7 million decrease in travel expense. The change in compensation was primarily due to an increase in employee headcount and our continued investment in our go-to-market activities and was partially offset by reduced expenses of $2.0 million recognized as a result of our transition from a PTO model to a FTO model which was announced in the second half of 2025 and became effective in 2026 and a benefit of $0.6 million for a change in the timing of employer 401(k) match contributions in 2026.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses decreased $1.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same quarter a year ago due primarily to a $0.9 million decrease in cash-based compensation and benefits costs and a $0.2 million decrease in stock-based compensation. The change in compensation was primarily driven by normal compensation increases for existing headcount and was offset by reduced expenses of $0.9 million recognized as a result of our transition from a PTO model to a FTO model which was announced in the second half of 2025 and became effective in 2026 as well as a benefit of $0.3 million for a change in the timing of employer 401(k) match contributions in 2026.

Interest Income, Interest Expense, and Other Income (Expense), Net

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, interest income decreased $0.6 million compared to the same quarter a year ago primarily due to lower interest rates. Interest expense remained relatively flat compared to the same quarter a year ago. Other income, net increased $0.6 million compared to the same quarter a year ago due primarily to gains on foreign currency transactions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview of Sources and Uses of Cash

As of March 31, 2026, our principal sources of liquidity were cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaling $863.4 million, which were held for working capital purposes. We have financed our operations primarily through cash generated from operations and issuances of convertible debt. We have generated significant operating losses as reflected in our accumulated deficit on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. While we may incur operating losses and negative cash flows from operations in the future, we believe that current cash and cash equivalents and cash flows from operating activities will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months.

Convertible Debt

In August 2023, we issued $702.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 1.250% 2028 Notes. Proceeds from the issuance of the 2028 Notes totaled $691.1 million, net of initial purchaser discounts and issuance costs. We used $396.9 million of the net proceeds from the 2028 Notes offering to repurchase $273.8 million principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, of our 1.125% 2026 Notes in separate and individually negotiated transactions with certain holders. As of March 31, 2026, we had outstanding debt relating to our 2026 Notes and 2028 Notes of $71.1 million and $696.8 million, with corresponding maturity dates of August 15, 2026 and August 15, 2028, respectively.

Share Repurchase Plan

On August 1, 2024, we announced that on July 30, 2024, our board of directors authorized a share repurchase plan for up to $100.0 million of our outstanding Class A common stock (the “2024 Repurchase Plan”). On February 16, 2026, our board of directors modified the 2024 Repurchase Plan to authorize an additional $250 million of the Company’s outstanding Class A common stock for repurchase under the plan. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined at the Company’s discretion, and the share repurchase program may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason. Shares may be repurchased through open market purchases in accordance with the requirements of Exchange Act Rule 10b-18, or privately negotiated transactions, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. As of March 31, 2026, we have repurchased $121.6 million of our Class A common stock under the 2024 Repurchase Plan.

Cash Flows

(in thousands)

Three months ended March 31, 2026 2025
Cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities $26,476 $(7,358)
Cash flow provided by (used in) investing activities 21,345 (9,133)
Cash flow used in financing activities (50,031) (45,012)
Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, net of impact of exchange rates $(4,509) $(59,614)

Operating Activities

Our largest source of operating cash is cash collections from customers for subscription and support access to our platform. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are for personnel-related expenditures, marketing activities, and costs of cloud infrastructure services.

Cash provided by operating activities of $26.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 consisted of net income of $19.0 million adjusted for non-cash charges of $30.2 million and net cash outflows of $22.8 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities. The decrease in deferred revenue was driven by the deduction of bookings and timing of billings in the current period. The decrease in accounts receivable was driven by collections outpacing invoicing driven by the volume of invoicing in the prior period. The decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities was due in part to timing of accruals and payments.

Cash used in operating activities of $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 consisted of a net loss of $21.4 million adjusted for non-cash charges of $29.6 million and net cash outflows of $15.6 million from changes in operating assets and liabilities. The decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities was due in part to a reduction in accrued commissions as we experience higher bookings at year-end driving a reduction the following quarter. The decrease in deferred revenue was driven by the deduction of bookings and timing of billings in the current period.

Investing Activities

Cash provided by investing activities of $21.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 consisted of $114.4 million from the maturities of marketable securities partially offset by $91.5 million in purchases of marketable securities, $0.8 million for acquisitions, net of cash, and $0.7 million in purchases of fixed assets. Our capital expenditures primarily consisted of computer equipment in support of work force.

Cash used in investing activities of $9.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 consisted of $103.0 million in purchases of marketable securities and $0.8 million in purchases of fixed assets partially offset by $94.6 million from the maturities of marketable securities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, income taxes and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as described in the financial statements contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on February 19, 2026.

Controls and procedures

As filed, 2,203 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to, and are effective to, provide assurance at a reasonable level that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Risk factors

As filed, 389 characters, with its headings, lists and tables. Extracted from the main document; charts and exhibits are in the original on sec.gov.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes during fiscal year 2026 to the risk factors that were included in the Form 10-K.
