15. NET LOSS PER SHARE

The Company’s basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company uses the two-class method to calculate net loss per share. Except with respect to certain voting, conversion, and transfer rights and as otherwise expressly provided in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or required by applicable law, shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and Class B common stock have the same rights and privileges and rank equally, share ratably, and are identical in all respects as to all matters. Accordingly, basic and diluted net loss per share are the same for both classes.

For purposes of the calculation of diluted net loss per share, options to purchase common stock and restricted stock units are considered common stock equivalents. Dilutive shares of common stock are determined by applying the treasury stock method. The dilutive shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share in the period of net loss, as their effect is antidilutive.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

Common stock equivalents excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because of their anti-dilutive effect were 14.4 million,14.0 million and 14.4 million units of equity awards to purchase common stock granted under the Company’s equity plans for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively.
