Current report

Certain prior quarterly and annual amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Current report

We primarily target large global enterprises, as we believe that our Unified-CXM platform’s breadth and depth of capabilities are well-suited to address the complex needs of these organizations. Our customers include 59% of the Fortune 100 companies.

Current report

Further, geopolitical events, such as Russia-Ukraine war, the 2026 Iran conflict and other military or security related events globally, may adversely affect our business. For example, our operations in the Middle East have been adversely impacted by the 2026 Iran conflict, including disruptions to our business activities in the region and inaccessibility, and potential loss, of certain customer data in connection with a third-party data center infrastructure in the United Arab Emirates on which we relied. Such events may result in a decrease in customer demand for our services, increased scrutiny from customers and regulators, and damage our reputation, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, we may incur significant and unanticipated expenses to mitigate the possibility of further harm, including through emergency data transfers, temporary changes to data processing locations, increased infrastructure costs, or as through the relocation of our employees or data to other regions not affected by the conflict.

Current report

Professional services revenue consists primarily of fixed-fee arrangements to provide implementation and managed services for our Unified-CXM Platform. For managed services, our consultants work alongside our customers’ teams to help them realize their CXM goals, including platform configuration, ongoing education and ad-hoc support.

Current report

Restructuring expense includes costs associated with the global workforce reductions implemented in fiscal years 2026 and 2025. The majority of these costs consist of severance, benefits and the acceleration of equity awards. We do not expect to incur any further restructuring expense with respect to the workforce reductions implemented in fiscal years 2026 and 2025.

Current report

The increase in costs of subscription revenue was primarily due to an increase of $33.3 million in third-party data, cloud and network infrastructure costs, partially attributable to increased customer demand as well as higher rates from our third-party providers.

Current report

The increase in research and development expense was primarily due to (i) a $3.0 million increase in personnel costs, resulting from higher stock compensation, which was primarily driven by new grants during fiscal year 2026, (ii) a $2.7 million increase in subcontractor and consulting costs, as a result of quality improvement projects implemented in the current fiscal year, and (iii) a $2.1 million increase in software subscription costs. These increases were partially offset by a $3.5 million decrease as a result of an increase in capitalized research and development costs.

Current report

The decrease in sales and marketing expense was primarily due to (i) a decrease in personnel costs of $25.2 million, primarily due to lower sales headcount as a result of the restructuring activities we implemented in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, partially offset by an increase in commissions expense of $4.2 million, and (ii) a decrease in other marketing-related costs of $5.9 million.

Current report

The increase in restructuring expense was due to the reduction in global workforce implemented in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 impacting 12% of our workforce versus a 3% impact to the workforce as a result of the reduction in global workforce implemented in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. Refer to Note 14, Restructuring Charges, included in “Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Form 10-K for additional information.

Current report

The increase in provision (benefit) for income taxes was primarily due to the impact of including U.S. profit before tax in the annual effective tax rate computation for the year ended January 31, 2026. For the year ended January 31, 2025, we recorded a net reduction of $96.3 million in our valuation allowance, primarily reflecting the release of our valuation allowance associated with our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets, and recorded a tax benefit of $2.0 million for non-deductible stock-based compensation. The provision for income tax for the year ended January 31, 2026 also includes (i) a $7.0 million income tax charge for changes to our uncertain tax positions related to our non-U.S. entities and (ii) a $5.1 million income tax charge for non-deductible stock-based compensation.

Current report

(2) Includes employer payroll tax related to stock-based compensation expense of $1.0 million, $1.1 million and $2.1 million for the years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Current report

(3)Relates to costs associated with litigation that arise outside of the ordinary course of business.

Current report

(4)Includes employer payroll tax related to restructuring expense of $0.8 million, $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Refer to Note 14, Restructuring Charges, included in “Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Form 10-K for additional information.

Current report

(1) Includes employer payroll tax related to stock-based compensation expense of $1.0 million, $1.1 million and $2.1 million of for the years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Current report

(2)Represents the Company’s current and deferred income tax expense commensurate with the non-GAAP measure of profitability using a non-GAAP tax rate of 26.4% for the year ended January 31, 2026. The Company uses an annual tax rate in its computation of the non-GAAP income tax provision and excludes the direct impact of stock-based compensation expense, employer tax costs related to stock-based compensation, intangible amortization expense, amortization of stock-based compensation expense associated with capitalized internal-use software, non-recurring litigation costs, restructuring costs and settlement of prior year tax provisions.

Current report

(3)Relates to costs associated with litigation that arise outside of the ordinary course of business.

Current report

(4)Includes employer payroll tax related to restructuring expense of $0.8 million, $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Refer to Note 14, Restructuring Charges, included in “Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Form 10-K for additional information.

Current report

On March 11, 2026, we announced that our board of directors had authorized and approved a share repurchase plan (the “2026 Share Repurchase Program”), whereby we were authorized to periodically repurchase up to $200 million of Class A common stock through March 15, 2027. On March 13, 2026, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase transaction for $125 million under the 2026 Share Repurchase Program, with the remaining authorization to be utilized at the Company’s discretion over the next year, subject to market conditions and other factors. Repurchases under the program are expected to be funded using cash on hand, cash equivalents, and marketable securities.

Current report

For additional information regarding our share repurchase programs, see Note 10, Stockholders’ Equity, included in “Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in this Form 10-K.

Current report

For the fiscal year 2026, cash provided by operating activities was $159.2 million, which consisted of net income of $22.9 million, adjusted for non-cash expenses of $127.6 million and $8.7 million of net cash flows provided as a result of changes in operating assets and liabilities. The $8.7 million of net cash flows provided as a result of changes in our operating assets and liabilities reflected (i) a $22.7 million increase in deferred revenue as a result of billings exceeding recognized revenue, (ii) an $11.1 million increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities primarily due to higher bonus and withholding tax accruals, (iii) a $5.9 million increase in accounts payable due to timing of payments made, and (iv) a $5.7 million decrease in accounts receivable due to collections outpacing billings. These increases to cash flows from operations were partially offset by (i) a $21.6 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets due to higher capitalized commissions, (ii) an $8.4 million decrease in operating lease liabilities due to ongoing payments for leased properties, and (iii) a $6.4 million increase in other non-current assets due to higher capitalized commissions.

Previous report

Sprinklr is redefining the world’s ability to make every customer experience extraordinary.

Previous report

We believe that our Unified-CXM platform is highly effective for organizations of all sizes, and we have a highly diverse group of customers across a broad array of industries and geographies. We focus primarily on selling our platform to large global enterprises, as we believe that we have significant competitive advantages attracting and serving such organizations given their complex needs and the broad capabilities our platform offers.

Previous report

Professional services revenue consists of fees associated with providing services that assist our customers with the configuration and optimization of our Unified-CXM software. These fees also include managed services fees where our consultants work as part of our customers’ teams to help leverage the subscription services to execute on their customer experience management goals and enablement services, which consist of initial design, configuration and education services.

Previous report

We expect that our general and administrative expense will decrease in the near term as a result of cost saving initiatives and generally increase in absolute dollars in the long term as we continue to grow our business. We also anticipate that we will incur additional costs for employees and third-party consulting services, which may cause our general and administrative expense to fluctuate as a percentage of revenue from period to period.

Previous report

The increase in costs of subscription revenue was primarily due to (i) higher costs related to third-party cloud infrastructure necessary to meet our increased customer demand, which included a $19.8 million increase in our data and hosting costs and (ii) a $3.2 million increase in the amortization of capitalized research and development costs.

Previous report

The increase in research and development expense was primarily due to (i) an increase in software subscription costs of $1.3 million and (ii) an increase in rent and facilities expenses of $0.5 million. These increases were partially offset by (i) a $0.8 million decrease in travel and entertainment costs and (ii) a $0.5 million decrease in other research and development costs.

Previous report

Sales and marketing expense remained relatively flat during the year ended January 31, 2025 as compared to the prior-year period. However, the change included a $2.0 million decrease in severance and related costs as a result of fewer sales and marketing employees being included in the restructuring implemented during the year ended January 31, 2025 than the restructuring program implemented during the prior year, which was offset by an increase in travel and related costs of $1.9 million.

Previous report

The decrease in (benefit) provision for income taxes was primarily related to the impact of an $87.1 million valuation allowance release of the Company’s U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets recorded in the year ended January 31, 2025.

Previous report

(2) Includes $1.1 million, $2.1 million and $1.2 million of employer payroll tax related to stock-based compensation expense for the years ended January 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Previous report

On January 8, 2024, we entered into an approved share repurchase program (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”), whereby we could repurchase up to $100 million of our Class A common stock. On both March 26, 2024 and June 3, 2024, our board of directors approved an additional $100 million of repurchases under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program, bringing the total amount authorized for purchase under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program to $300 million.

Previous report

For the fiscal year 2023, cash provided by operating activities was $26.7 million resulting from net loss of $55.7 million offset by non-cash expenses of $75.7 million and $6.7 million net cash flow provided as a result of changes in operating assets and liabilities. The $6.7 million of net cash flows provided as a result of changes in our operating assets and liabilities reflected (i) a $41.5 million increase in deferred revenue resulting primarily from increased billings for subscriptions, (ii) a $29.1 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets driven by larger prepaid contracts in the prior fiscal year, (iii) a $14.5 million increase in accounts payable largely due to the timing of payments due, and (iv) a $6.7 million increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. These changes were partially offset by (i) a $44.8 million increase in accounts receivable due to increased billings, (ii) a $24.4 million increase in other non-current assets driven by an increase in capitalized commissions, and (iii) the $12.0 million litigation settlement paid in March 2022.

Previous report

For all periods prior to the Initial Public Offering (“IPO”), the fair values of our common stock were determined by our board of directors, with input from management and taking into account our most recent valuations from an independent third-party valuation specialist. Given the absence of a public trading market for our common stock, our board of directors exercised reasonable judgment and considered a number of objective and subjective factors to determine the best estimate of the fair value of our common stock, including our stage of development; the rights, preferences and privileges of our convertible preferred stock relative to those of our common stock; our financial condition and operating results, including our levels of available capital resources; equity market conditions affecting comparable public companies; general U.S. market conditions; recent secondary stock sales and a tender offer and the lack of marketability of our common stock. Valuations of our common stock were determined in accordance with the guidelines outlined in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Practice Guide, Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation.

Our customers include global enterprises across a broad array of industries and geographies, as well as marketing agencies and government departments along with non-profit and educational institutions. Our customers are located in over 80 countries, and our AI-based CXM platform recognizes over 150 languages. As of January 31, 2025, we had 1,930 customers spanning organizations of a broad range of sizes and industries, including 60% of the Fortune 100 companies, compared to 1,735 customers as of January 31, 2024. We define our large customers as customers with greater than or equal to $1.0 million in subscription revenue on a trailing 12-month basis, as of the period presented. As of January 31, 2025, we had 149 large customers compared to 126 as of January 31, 2024.

Current wording

Our customer base is diverse, spanning global enterprises across a broad array of industries and geographies, as well as marketing agencies, government departments, non-profit and educational institutions. As of January 31, 2026, we had 1,677 customers in more than 90 countries, with our platform supporting over 150 languages. This compares to 1,930 customers as of January 31, 2025. The decrease in total customers year-over-year was primarily due to a strategic refinement of our customer profile and an increased focus on top-tier enterprise customers. We define our large customers as those with at least $1.0 million in subscription revenue on a trailing 12-month basis. As of January 31, 2026, we had 141 large customers, compared to 149 as of January 31, 2025. While the number of large customers decreased, the average subscription revenue per customer in this cohort increased, reflecting our focus on higher-value relationships.

We believe that net dollar expansion rate (“NDE”) is an indicator of the value that our platform delivers to customers. We calculate NDE to measure our ability to retain and expand subscription revenue from our existing customers. NDE compares our subscription revenue from the same set of customers across comparable periods and reflects customer renewals, expansion, contraction and churn. We calculate NDE by dividing (i) subscription revenue in the trailing 12-month period from those customers who were on our platform during the most recent prior 12-month period by (ii) subscription revenue from the same customers in the preceding prior 12-month period. This calculation is net of upsells, contraction, cancellation or expansion during the period but excludes subscription revenue from new customers. Our NDE, on a trailing 12-month basis, was 103.6% and 117.7% for the 12-month periods ended January 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease year-over-year was driven by elevated churn, exacerbated by the current macroeconomic environment.

NDE was stable year-over-year despite continued churn and down-selling of certain existing customers, which was partially driven by the current macroeconomic environment.

Previous wording

Unfavorable conditions in the economy both in the United States and abroad may negatively affect the growth of our business and our results of operations. For example, macroeconomic events, including fluctuations in inflation and interest rates and the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas wars, have led to economic uncertainty globally. Historically, during periods of economic uncertainty and downturns, businesses may slow spending on information technology, which may impact our business and our customers’ businesses. While we have experienced growing inflationary pressures on the cost of wages, rent and data, the net result of inflationary impacts and our efforts to mitigate these impacts have not been material to us during the periods included in this report. In addition, general economic weakness may lead to longer collection cycles for payments due from our customers and an increase in customer provision for credit losses, as well as restructuring initiatives and associated expenses, and customers and potential customers may require extended financial concessions, which could result in adjustments to revenue recognition.

Subscription revenue consists primarily of fees from customers accessing our proprietary Unified-CXM platform, as well as related support services. Subscription revenue is generally recognized ratably over the related contract term beginning on the commencement date of each contract, which is generally the date our service is made available to customers. Our subscriptions typically have a term of one to three years. Historically, we have experienced seasonality in our sales cycle, as a large percentage of our customers make their purchases in the fourth quarter of a given fiscal year and pay us in the first quarter of the subsequent year. This seasonality may be reflected to a much lesser extent, and sometimes may not be immediately apparent, in our revenue, due to the fact that we recognize subscription revenue over the term of the applicable subscription agreement.

Previous wording

Our gross margin on subscription revenue is significantly higher than our gross margin on professional services revenue, and as a result our gross margin may vary from period to period if our mix of revenue or costs of revenue fluctuates. In addition, because personnel-related expenses represent the largest component in costs of professional services revenue, we may experience changes in our professional services gross margin due to the timing of delivery of those services. We expect that our gross margin will decline in the near term due to higher data and hosting costs and, in the long term, will vary from period to period.

Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of personnel-related expenses for our sales and marketing organization, including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stock-based compensation, professional fees, software costs, advertising, marketing, promotional and brand awareness activities, travel expenses and allocated overhead expense, including facilities costs. Sales commissions earned by our sales force are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit. In the near term, we expect sales and marketing expense to decrease as we work to right size our costs. In the long term, we expect sales and marketing expense to generally increase in absolute dollars as we continue to drive the growth of our business. We continue to optimize our sales and marketing expense and seek efficiencies in our investments.

Current wording

Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of personnel-related expenses for our sales and marketing organization, including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stock-based compensation, professional fees, software costs, advertising, marketing, promotional and brand awareness activities, travel expenses and allocated overhead expense, including facilities costs. Sales commissions earned by our sales force are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit. We expect sales and marketing expense to generally increase in absolute dollars as we continue to drive the growth of our business. We continue to optimize our sales and marketing expense and seek efficiencies in our investments.

Previous wording

Provision for income taxes consists primarily of income taxes related to foreign and U.S. jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Our annual estimated effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate in fiscal 2025 primarily due to the valuation allowance release on our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets.

Current wording

Provision for income taxes consists primarily of income taxes related to foreign and U.S. jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Our annual estimated effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate in fiscal year 2026 primarily due to the impact of non-deductible items, stock-based compensation expense and the foreign tax rate differential on non-U.S. income and withholding taxes, as well as changes in our uncertain tax positions.

Previous wording

The increase in subscription revenue was primarily due to increased revenue from existing customers driven by the purchase of additional quantities of current subscription solutions and additional add-on solutions within our platform, as well as demand for our solutions from new customers. Such growth was partially offset by certain existing customers purchasing fewer quantities of current subscription solutions within our platform as well as certain customers no longer subscribing to our platform, partially driven by macroeconomic conditions.

Previous wording

The increase in professional services revenue was primarily due to growth in both implementations and managed services related to CCaaS delivery capabilities.

Current wording

The increase in professional services revenue was primarily due to growth in both implementations and managed services related to Contact Center as a Service (“CCaaS”) delivery capabilities.

Previous wording

The increase in costs of professional services revenue was primarily due to (i) an $11.7 million increase in subcontractor costs as a result of higher partner delivery costs associated with increased professional services revenue and (ii) higher personnel-related costs of $5.0 million as a result of increased headcount.

Current wording

The increase in costs of professional services revenue was primarily due to (i) an $11.0 million increase in subcontractor costs as a result of higher partner delivery costs and (ii) higher personnel-related costs of $7.7 million, partially driven by increased bonus expense compared to prior year.

Previous wording

Gross margin for subscription decreased by three percentage points, primarily driven by increased costs associated with third-party cloud infrastructure and data. Gross margin for professional services decreased by five percentage points as we increased our investment in CCaaS delivery partners and personnel in fiscal year 2025 to support future growth in our CCaaS solution.

Current wording

Gross margin for subscription decreased by four percentage points, primarily driven by increased costs associated with third-party data, cloud and network infrastructure. Gross margin for professional services increased by three percentage points, largely driven by the timing of project initiation and the completion of delivery milestones, including the implementation of CCaaS projects.

Previous wording

The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to (i) a $15.5 million increase in personnel-related costs driven by higher general and administrative headcount, as well as increased stock compensation expense, primarily related to new grants during fiscal year 2025, (ii) a $10.3 million increase in consulting costs primarily related to strategic projects and (iii) a $5.7 million increase in provision for credit losses due to increased reserves for certain customers that we deemed to be uncollectible accounts, as well as higher calculated loss rates applied to outstanding receivables.

Current wording

The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to (i) a $19.2 million increase in personnel-related costs driven by increased stock compensation expense, primarily related to new grants during fiscal year 2026 and (ii) an increase in professional and related fees of $1.9 million. These increases were partially offset by (i) lower consulting costs of $11.3 million and (ii) lower provision for expected credit losses of $9.3 million as a result of increased reserves for certain customers that we deemed to be uncollectible accounts during the second quarter of fiscal year 2025.

Previous wording

The decrease in other income, net was primarily attributable to a $4.2 million decrease in interest income from our money market and short-term investment accounts as a result of lower average balances in these accounts, partially offset by higher average interest rates. This decrease was partially offset by a $2.0 million increase in net foreign currency gains.

Current wording

The increase in other income, net was primarily attributable to an $8.2 million increase in net foreign currency gains, partially offset by a $5.8 million decrease in interest income from our money market and short-term investment accounts as a result of lower interest rates and lower average balances in these accounts.

Previous wording

We define these non-GAAP financial measures as the respective U.S. GAAP measures, excluding, as applicable, stock-based compensation expense and related charges, amortization of acquired intangible assets and release of U.S. federal and state valuation allowances, as well as other one-time charges and benefits, such as restructuring charges, costs associated with acquisitions, litigations and facility exit costs. We believe that it is useful to exclude these items in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business and to facilitate comparison of our results to those of peer companies over multiple periods. In periods of net loss, we calculate non-GAAP net income per share by using non-GAAP net income divided by basic weighted average shares for the period regardless of whether we are in a non-GAAP net income or loss position and assuming that all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive.

Current wording

We define these non-GAAP financial measures as the respective U.S. GAAP measures, excluding, as applicable, stock-based compensation expense and related charges, amortization of stock-based compensation expense associated with capitalized internal-use software, amortization of acquired intangible assets, release of U.S. federal and state valuation allowances, and the estimated tax effect related to the non-GAAP items, as well as other one-time charges, such as restructuring charges, costs associated with acquisitions, non-recurring litigation costs and facility exit costs. We believe that it is useful to exclude these items in order to better understand the long-term performance of our core business and to facilitate comparison of our results to those of peer companies over multiple periods.

Previous wording

As of January 31, 2025, our principal sources of liquidity were $145.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and $338.2 million of highly liquid marketable securities. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and cash from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs, capital expenditures and financing obligations for at least the next 12 months and over the long-term. The majority of our cash is held in the United States and we do not anticipate a need to repatriate cash held outside of the United States. Further, it is our intent to indefinitely reinvest these funds outside the United States, and, therefore, we have not provided for any United States income taxes.

Critical accounting estimates are those estimates that, in accordance with GAAP, involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Management has determined that our most critical accounting estimates are those relating to revenue recognition and stock-based compensation expense, including historical common stock valuations and performance-based award valuations. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors and adjust those estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions.

The determination of standalone selling price (“SSP”) for each distinct performance obligation requires judgement. We rarely sell our enterprise cloud software products and services as readily observable standalone sales, so we are required to estimate the SSP for each performance obligation. In the determination of the SSP, we may use information that includes contractually stated prices, size of the arrangement, list prices and other observable inputs. Based on these results, the estimated SSP is set for each distinct product or service delivered to customers. As our go-to-market strategies evolve, we may modify our pricing strategies in the future, which could result in changes to SSP.

We measure and record the expense related to stock-based awards based upon the fair value at the date of grant. We estimate the grant date fair value of each common stock option using the Black-Scholes Merton method, which requires the input of subjective assumptions and management’s best estimates. The assumptions used, including (i) fair value of the underlying common stock, (ii) expected volatility, (iii) expected term, (iv) risk-free interest rate and (v) dividend yield, and how they are estimated is detailed within Note 11, Stock-Based Compensation, to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part II, Item 8.

For awards granted that vest upon the achievement of market conditions, we estimate the grant date fair value of these units using a Monte Carlo Simulation. The simulation models multiple stock price paths in order to estimate the grant date fair value of those with market conditions. For those awards with market conditions, stock-based compensation will be recognized regardless of if the market targets were achieved. However, if the grantee does not continue their employment through the derived service period, all related stock-based compensation for that individual was reversed in the period of termination. For awards granted that vest upon the achievement of certain performance conditions, we estimate the fair value of these units using the Company share price on the date of grant. Once the performance conditions are deemed probable, stock-based compensation recognition begins and is recognized over the service period. If at any point the performance conditions are deemed not probable, any expense recognized to date will be reversed.

We have determined that it is more likely than not that our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets will be realizable as of January 31, 2025. In determining the need, or continued need, for a valuation allowance, we considered the weighting of the positive and negative evidence, which includes, among other things, recent historical income and losses, future growth, forecasted earnings and future taxable income. As of January 31, 2025, we achieved three years cumulative U.S. income when considering pre-tax income adjusted for permanent differences and other comprehensive losses. Based on all available positive and negative evidence, having demonstrated sustained profitability, which is objective and verifiable, and taking into account anticipated future earnings, we concluded that it is more likely than not that our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets will be realizable. See Note 13, Income Taxes, to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in “Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements” of this Form 10-K for additional information.

Unfavorable conditions in the economy both in the United States and abroad may negatively affect the growth of our business and our results of operations. For example, macroeconomic and geopolitical events, including fluctuations in inflation and interest rates, the imposition of tariffs in the United States and abroad, the Russia-Ukraine war and military conflicts in the Middle East and the 2025 U.S. government shutdown, have led to economic uncertainty both in the United States and globally. Historically, during periods of economic and geopolitical uncertainty and downturns, businesses may slow spending on information technology, which may impact our business and our customers’ businesses.
