Previous report
Fluctuations in our operating results could reduce our cash flow, or trigger restrictions under our credit agreement and cause us to be unable to repurchase shares under our recently announced share repurchase program, either at all or at the times or in the amounts we desire, and as a result, our share repurchase program may not be as beneficial as we would like.
Previous report
On July 22, 2025, our board of directors approved a $50.0 million share repurchase program for one year from the board approval date. This program does not require us to repurchase any specific number of shares, and may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time without prior notice. Shares repurchased under the program will be subsequently retired. If our cash flow decreases as a result of decreased revenue, increased expenses, or other uses of cash, we may not be able to repurchase shares of our Class A common stock at all or at times or in the amounts we desire, including under the terms of our credit facility. As a result, the results of any share repurchase program may not be as beneficial as expected. In August 2025, we repurchased $21.0 million of Class A common shares under the program from an entity affiliated with funds advised by our board chairman and co-founder and other affiliated entities of this individual.
Previous report
If we were required to draw upon our line of credit, indebtedness could adversely affect our ability to operate our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Previous report
On August 1, 2025, we entered into a new senior secured revolving credit facility with the Lenders providing for a $60.0 million senior secured revolving line of credit, with the right to request an to increase from time to time of up to $25.0 million. This facility replaces the prior $25.0 million revolving line of credit with Western Alliance Bank.
Previous report
Borrowing under our revolving line of credit or otherwise, combined with our other financial obligations and contractual commitments, could have significant adverse consequences, including:
Previous report
• requiring us to dedicate a portion of our cash resources to the payment of interest and principal, reducing money available to fund working capital, capital expenditures, product development and other general corporate purposes;
Previous report
• subjecting us to restrictive covenants that may reduce our ability to take certain corporate actions or obtain further debt or equity financing (for example, the covenants in the loan and security agreement for our revolving line of credit include limitations on our ability to incur additional indebtedness and engage in certain fundamental business transactions, such as mergers or acquisitions of other businesses);
Previous report
In addition, any indebtedness we incur under our current revolving line of credit will bear interest at a variable rate, which would make us vulnerable to increases in the market rate of interest. If the market rate of interest increases, we would have to pay additional interest, which would reduce cash available for our other business needs. We intend to satisfy any future debt service obligations with our existing cash and cash equivalents. Under our new credit facility, our failure to make payments when due or comply with specified covenants, as well as the occurrence of an event that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, assets or financial condition, is an event of default. If an event of default occurs and the lenders accelerate any indebtedness then outstanding, we may need to seek additional financing, which may not be available on acceptable terms, in a timely manner or at all. In such event, we may not be able to make accelerated payments, and the lenders could seek to enforce security interests in the collateral securing such indebtedness, which includes substantially all of our assets. In addition, the covenants under our debt instruments, the pledge of our assets as collateral and the negative pledge with respect to our intellectual property could limit our ability to obtain additional debt financing on acceptable terms or at all. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

Pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement, the Company agreed to repurchase 900,000 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock directly from Link Ventures (the “Repurchase”) at a price of $23.33 per share, representing an approximate 1.8% discount to the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on August 8, 2025.

(2) Mr. Brainard's Rule 10b5-1 Plan provides for the sale of an indeterminable number of shares of common stock from the settlement of restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The shares of common stock is unknown as the number will vary based on the extent to which vesting conditions of the RSUs are satisfied, the market price of the Company’s common stock at the time of settlement and the amount of shares that would otherwise be issuable on each settlement date of a covered RSU that are sold or withheld in an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable tax withholding obligations.
