Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Business Overview
Organization and Description of Business
Pure Storage, Inc. (the Company, we, us, or other similar pronouns) was originally incorporated in the state of Delaware in October 2009 under the name OS76, Inc. In January 2010, we changed our name to Pure Storage, Inc. We are headquartered in Santa Clara, California and have wholly owned subsidiaries throughout the world.
Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
We operate using a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the first Sunday after January 30, which for fiscal 2025 was February 2, 2025 and for fiscal 2026 will be February 1, 2026. The first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026 ended on May 5, 2024 and May 4, 2025. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to our fiscal year and fiscal quarters.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full fiscal year 2026 or any future period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the determination of standalone selling price for revenue arrangements with multiple performance obligations when the price at which the performance obligation sold separately or observable past transactions are not available, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, the period of benefit for deferred contract costs for commissions, fair value for certain stock-based awards, provision for income taxes including related reserves, fair value of leases and impairment of related right-of-use (ROU) assets. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions which management believes to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash is associated with our letters of credit for leases and certain employee-related benefits. At the end of fiscal 2025 and the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we had restricted cash of $14.2 million and $20.8 million. Included in these amounts are $1.6 million and $1.8 million classified as prepaid expenses and other current assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires greater disaggregation of tax information in rate reconciliation and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning February 3, 2025, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our financial statement disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires additional disclosures of specific expense categories included within each expense caption presented on the Statements of Operations. The new standard can be applied on either a fully retrospective or prospective basis. ASU 2024-03 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning February 1, 2027, and interim periods within our fiscal year beginning February 7, 2028, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on our financial statement disclosures.
Note 3. Financial Instruments
Fair Value Measurements
We define fair value as the exchange price that would be received from sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. We measure our financial assets and liabilities at fair value at each reporting period using a fair value hierarchy which requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s classification within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Observable inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Observable inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments; and
Level 3- Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. These inputs are based on our own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value and require significant management judgment or estimation.
We measure our cash equivalents, marketable securities, publicly held equity securities, and restricted cash at fair value on a recurring basis. We classify these assets within Level 1 or Level 2 because they are valued using either quoted market prices or inputs other than quoted prices which are directly or indirectly observable in the market, including readily-available pricing sources for the identical underlying security which may not be actively traded. Our fixed income available-for-sale securities consist of high quality, investment grade securities from diverse issuers. The valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of our marketable securities were derived from non-binding market consensus prices that are corroborated by observable market data or quoted market prices for similar instruments.
The following tables summarize our assets that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis by significant investment categories and their classification within the fair value hierarchy and in our condensed consolidated balance sheets at the end of fiscal 2025 and the first quarter of fiscal 2026 (in thousands):

(1) Subject to short-term lock-up restrictions.
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of our marketable securities are shown below by contractual maturity (in thousands):
| At the End of the First Quarter of Fiscal 2026 | ||
|---|---|---|
| Amortized Cost | Fair Value | |
| Due within one year | $319,474 | $320,003 |
| Due in one to five years | 514,133 | 517,239 |
| Due in five to ten years | 2,500 | 2,506 |
| Total | $836,107 | $839,748 |
Unrealized losses on our marketable securities have not been recorded into income because we do not intend to sell nor is it more likely than not that we will be required to sell these investments prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis. The fair value of our marketable securities is impacted by the interest rate environment and related credit spreads. The credit ratings associated with our marketable securities are highly rated and the issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments. As a result, there wereno credit or non-credit impairment charges recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026. The following table presents the fair values and gross unrealized losses for those investments that were in a continuous unrealized loss position at the end of fiscal 2025 and the first quarter of fiscal 2026, aggregated by investment category (in thousands):

Realized gains or losses on sale of marketable securities were not significant for all periods presented.
Strategic Investments
Strategic investments primarily include equity investments in privately-held companies without readily determinable fair values in which we do not own a controlling interest or exercise significant influence. At the end of fiscal 2025 and the first quarter of 2026, the carrying amount of these investments was $36.7 million and $11.7 million and included primarily in other assets, non-current in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, one of the privately-held companies completed its initial public offering and as a result its fair value at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026 is included in the above fair value hierarchy table as Level 1.
Strategic investments that are remeasured due to an observable event or impairment are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as nonrecurring fair value measurements may include observable and unobservable inputs. No remeasurements occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026.
Other Financial Instruments
The investments held in our nonqualified deferred compensation plan trust are considered trading securities that are measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs. The fair value of these investments was $8.4 million and $10.6 million at the end of fiscal 2025 and the first quarter of fiscal 2026.

Of the $2.7 billion RPO at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we expect to recognize approximately 48% over the next 12 months, and the remainder thereafter.
Note 6. Debt
Revolving Credit Facility
In August 2020, we entered into a Credit Agreement with a consortium of financial institutions and lenders that provides for afive-year, senior secured revolving credit facility of $300.0 million (Existing Credit Facility). Proceeds from the Existing Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes and working capital. The Existing Credit Facility expires, absent default or termination by us, on August 24, 2025.
The annual interest rates applicable to loans under the Existing Credit Facility are, at our option, equal to either a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.25% or term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) (based on one, three or six-month interest periods), subject to a floor of 0%, plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.25%. Interest on revolving loans is payable quarterly in arrears with respect to loans based on the base rate and at the end of an interest period in the case of loans based on term SOFR (or at each three-month interval if the interest period is longer than three months). We are also required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the commitments ranging from 0.25% to 0.40% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears.
We had $100.0 million outstanding under the Existing Credit Facility at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The outstanding borrowing bore weighted-average interest at an annual rate of approximately 6.83% and 5.82% during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026 based on a one-month term SOFR period. Interest expense was not material for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026.
Borrowings under the Existing Credit Facility are collateralized by substantially all of our assets and subject to certain restrictions andtwo financial ratios measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter: a consolidated leverage ratio not to exceed 4.5:1 and an interest coverage ratio not to be less than 3:1. We were in compliance with all covenants under the Existing Credit Facility at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026.
Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies
Leases
At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we had various non-cancelable operating and finance lease commitments for office and data center facilities. Refer to Note 8—Leases for additional information regarding lease commitments.
Letters of Credit
At the end of fiscal 2025 and the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we had outstanding letters of credit in the aggregate amount of $7.2 million and $13.5 million in connection with our facility leases and a certain employee-related benefit. The letters of credit associated with our facility leases are collateralized by either restricted cash or the Credit Facility and mature on various dates through September 2030. The letter of credit associated with the certain employee-related benefit is collateralized by restricted cash.
Legal Matters
From time to time, we have become involved in claims and other legal matters arising in the normal course of business. We investigate these claims as they arise. Although claims are inherently unpredictable, we currently are not aware of any matters that we expect to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, no material loss contingency has been recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026.
Indemnification
Our arrangements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if our products or services infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights. Other guarantees or indemnification arrangements include guarantees of product and service performance and standby letters of credit for lease facilities. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification obligations due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. To date, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such obligations and have not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the condensed consolidated financial statements. In addition, we indemnify our officers, directors and certain key employees while they are serving in good faith in their respective capacities. To date, there have been no claims under any indemnification provisions.
Note 8. Leases
We lease office and data center facilities under non-cancelable operating lease agreements expiring through July 2032. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.
We also lease certain engineering test equipment under financing agreements. These finance leases have a lease term ofthree tofive years and contain a bargain purchase option that we have exercised or expect to exercise at the end of the respective lease terms.

Lessor Arrangement
We, as a lessor, have entered into non-cancelable arrangements to lease our data storage solutions and subscription services. The arrangements include multiple seven-year leases that either commenced during fiscal 2025 or will commence in fiscal 2026 with total net consideration of $217.5 million. The arrangements provide an end-of-term option to purchase the leased assets for a pre-determined price.
We determined, at inception of the respective arrangements, that each of the leases include sales-type leases, an operating lease, and non-lease components. The non-lease components are comprised of subscription support services and professional services. The total net consideration for each lease was allocated to these components based on relative standalone selling price. The amounts allocated to the lease and non-lease components are accounted for in accordance with ASC 842 and ASC 606, respectively.
We recognized $7.2 million in product revenue related to a sales-type lease component during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The associated profit was $5.3 million based on the product revenue recognized less certain costs, during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. No product revenue was recognized during the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Subscription services revenue related to the operating lease and non-lease components recognized during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026 wasnot material and $7.2 million.
Future minimum gross lease payments for the leases that have commenced allocated to the sales-type leases and operating lease components are as follows (in thousands). The remaining lease payments of $95.7 million allocated to the non-lease components, are excluded from the table below.

Note 9. Restructuring and Impairment
Workforce Realignment
In February 2024, we initiated a workforce realignment plan (the Plan) to better align our resources with our business strategy that reduced our headcount by nearly 250 employees globally. We recognized total restructuring costs of $27.9 million associated with one-time severance and other termination benefits, of which $9.9 million was recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The restructuring costs recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 included $0.4 million in cost of revenue in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Plan was completed by the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
Facilities Abandonment and Impairment
During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, we recognized $6.4 million in incremental abandonment and impairment charges related to certain leases associated with our former corporate headquarters that we ceased use during the second quarter of fiscal 2024. The incremental impairment charge represents the amount that the carrying value of the underlying asset exceeded its estimated fair value, which was determined by utilizing a discounted cash flow approach that incorporated revised sublease assumptions.
Note 10. Stockholders’ Equity
Preferred Stock
We have 20.0 million authorized shares of undesignated preferred stock, the rights, preferences and privileges of which may be designated from time to time by our Board of Directors. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, there wereno shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.
Class A and Class B Common Stock
We havetwo classes of authorized common stock, Class A common stock, which we refer to as our “common stock”, and Class B common stock. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we had 2.0 billion authorized shares of Class A common stock and 250.0 million authorized shares of Class B common stock, with each class having a par value of $0.0001 per share. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026,326.9 million shares of Class A common stock were issued and outstanding.
Share Repurchase Program
In February 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a $250.0 million increase to the share repurchase program, bringing the total remaining authorization for future share repurchases to $271.5 million. During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, we repurchased and retired approximately 2.5 million shares of our common stock at an average purchase price of $48.10 per share for an aggregate repurchase price of $119.9 million. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, $151.6 million remained available for future share repurchases under our current repurchase authorization.
Note 11. Equity Incentive Plans
Equity Incentive Plans
We maintaintwo equity incentive plans: the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2009 Plan) and the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2015 Plan). The 2015 Plan serves as the successor to our 2009 Plan and provides for grants of incentive stock options to our employees and non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance-based stock and cash awards, market-based stock awards, and other forms of stock awards to our employees, directors and consultants. Our equity awards generally vest over atwo tofour year period and expire no later thanten years from the date of grant.
Upon vesting of equity awards, approximately 0.3 million shares and 1.2 million shares were withheld to cover $12.5 million and $60.1 million in tax withholding obligations during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026. The shares withheld to satisfy employee tax withholding obligations are returned to our 2015 Plan and will be available for future issuance. Payments for employees’ tax obligations to the tax authorities are recognized as a reduction to additional paid-in capital and reflected as a financing activity in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
2015 Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Under our Amended and Restated 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (2015 ESPP), our Board of Directors (or a committee thereof) has the authority to establish the length and terms of the offering periods and purchase periods and the purchase price of the shares of common stock which may be purchased under the plan. The current offering terms allow eligible employees to purchase shares of our common stock at a discount through payroll deductions of up to 30% of their eligible compensation, subject to a cap of 3,000 shares on any purchase date, a dollar cap of $7,500 per purchase period, or $25,000 in any calendar year (as determined under applicable tax rules). The current terms also allow for a 24-month offering period beginning March 16th and September 16th of each year, with each offering period consisting offour 6-month purchase periods, subject to a reset provision. Further, currently, on each purchase date, eligible employees may purchase our common stock at a price per share equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of our common stock (1) on the first trading day of the applicable offering period or (2) the purchase date.
Under the reset provision currently authorized, if the closing stock price on the offering date of a new offering falls below the closing stock price on the offering date of an ongoing offering, the ongoing offering would terminate immediately following the purchase of ESPP shares on the purchase date immediately preceding the new offering and participants in the terminated offering would automatically be enrolled in the new offering (ESPP reset), resulting in a modification charge to be recognized over the new offering period. No ESPP reset occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026.
Stock-based compensation expense related to our 2015 ESPP was $8.0 million and $7.5 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to our 2015 ESPP was $45.1 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years.
Stock Options
A summary of the stock option activity under our equity incentive plans and related information is as follows:
| Options Outstanding | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number ofShares | Weighted-AverageExercise Price | Weighted-AverageRemainingContractual Life (in years) | AggregateIntrinsicValue (in thousands) | |
| Balance at the end of fiscal 2025 | 2,426,214 | $14.07 | 2.0 | $130,798 |
| Options exercised | (348,395) | 15.39 | ||
| Balance at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026 | 2,077,819 | $13.85 | 2.0 | $71,090 |
| Vested and exercisable at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026 | 2,077,819 | $13.85 | 2.0 | $71,090 |
The aggregate intrinsic value of options vested and exercisable at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026 is calculated based on the difference between the exercise price and the closing price of $47.84 of our common stock on the last day of the first quarter of fiscal 2026.
Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options was fully recognized in fiscal 2025 and was not material during the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)
A summary of the RSU activity under our 2015 Plan and related information is as follows:
| Number ofRSUs Outstanding | Weighted-AverageGrant DateFair Value | AggregateIntrinsicValue (in thousands) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unvested balance at the end of fiscal 2025 | 19,299,290 | $37.20 | $1,308,299 |
| Granted | 7,651,932 | 42.35 | |
| Vested | (2,476,486) | 31.65 | |
| Forfeited | (531,373) | 39.56 | |
| Unvested balance at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026 | 23,943,363 | $39.37 | $1,145,450 |
Stock-based compensation expense related to RSUs was $67.7 million and $77.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to unvested RSUs was $891.4 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.0 years.
Performance-based Restricted Stock Units (PRSUs)
The number of shares that could be earned under our PRSU grants ranges from 0% to 200% of the target number granted depending on the achievement of certain performance conditions with any unearned shares canceled. Generally, the number of earned shares vest over three years from the date of grant subject to continuous service.
A summary of the PRSU activity under our 2015 Plan and related information is as follows:
| Number of PRSUs Outstanding | Weighted-AverageGrant DateFair Value | AggregateIntrinsicValue (in thousands) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unvested balance at the end of fiscal 2025 | 1,849,045 | $41.34 | $125,347 |
| Vested and earned (1) | (500,649) | 39.59 | |
| Unearned (2) | (284,928) | 49.46 | |
| Unvested balance at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026 | 1,063,468 | $39.98 | $50,876 |
(1) Represents the number of shares earned in which the service condition has also been satisfied.
(2) Represents the number of shares canceled as a result of not fully achieving the fiscal 2025 performance conditions.
Stock-based compensation expense related to PRSUs was $33.5 million and $8.0 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to unvested PRSUs was $16.2 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, our Board of Directors approved a discretionary adjustment, increasing the earned number of shares to 80 percent of the target for the PRSUs granted in fiscal 2024. Our Board of Directors’ consideration included that fiscal 2024 total revenue growth was impacted by Total Contract Value (TCV) sales growth of our consumption based Evergreen//One and Evergreen//Flex offerings, which far exceeded expectations. This modification resulted in additional stock-based compensation expense of approximately $40.7 million, of which $38.2 million was recognized through the first quarter of fiscal 2026. We recognized $28.7 million and $1.6 million in stock-based compensation expense related to this modification in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026.
Long-Term Performance Incentive RSUs (LTP Awards)
In June 2023, we granted market-based LTP Awards to certain executives with an aggregate maximum number of shares of common stock of approximately 4.2 million.
The total number of shares earned are subject to continuous service through March 20, 2028 and upon vesting, the number of shares vested will be subject to aone-year post-vest holding period.
The number of shares earned are contingent upon our market capitalization meeting or exceeding $21.0 billion that will be measured over an approximate three tofive year period, at the end of our fiscal years ending in 2026, 2027 and 2028.
Total stock-based compensation expense of $73.9 million for these awards is being recognized over the requisite service period of nearly five years using the accelerated attribution method and is not reversed if the market condition is not ultimately met. There were approximately 3.9 million in remaining unvested and outstanding LTP Awards with an aggregate intrinsic value of $188.8 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Stock-based compensation expense related to LTP Awards was $3.6 million during both the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to unvested LTP Awards was $41.7 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
The following table summarizes the components of stock-based compensation expense recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations (in thousands):
| First Quarter of Fiscal | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2026 | |
| Cost of revenue—product | $2,782 | $3,266 |

(1)Stock-based compensation expense capitalized was $1.6 million and $1.9 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2026.
The tax benefit related to stock-based compensation expense for all periods presented was not material.
Note 12. Net Loss per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders
Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is presented in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities. Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, less shares subject to repurchase. Diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including our outstanding stock options, common stock related to unvested RSUs, PRSUs, and LTP Awards, and common stock issuable pursuant to the ESPP. In periods of net loss, all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders as their effect is anti-dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders (in thousands, except per share data):
| First Quarter of Fiscal | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2026 | |
| Net loss | $(35,009) | $(13,995) |
| Weighted-average shares used in computing net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted | 322,589 | 326,539 |
| Net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted | $(0.11) | $(0.04) |
The following weighted-average outstanding shares of common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the periods presented because including them would have been anti-dilutive (in thousands):
| First Quarter of Fiscal | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2026 | |
| Stock options to purchase common stock | 3,883 | 2,257 |
| Unvested RSUs, PRSUs and LTP Awards | 25,516 | 20,691 |
| Shares issuable pursuant to the ESPP | 775 | 464 |
| Total | 30,174 | 23,412 |
Note 13. Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net consists of the following (in thousands):
| First Quarter of Fiscal | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2026 | |
| Interest income (1) | $18,190 | $16,876 |
| Interest expense (2) | (2,012) | (1,807) |
| Foreign currency transactions gains (losses) | (2,092) | 14,479 |
| Other income | 5 | 2,107 |
| Total other income (expense), net | $14,091 | $31,655 |
(1)Interest income includes interest income related to our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities and non-cash interest income (expense) related to accretion (amortization) of the discount (premium) on marketable securities.
(2) Interest expense includes non-cash interest expense related to amortization of debt issuance costs, contractual interest expense related to our debt and accretion of our finance lease liabilities.
Note 14. Income Taxes
Our provision for income tax primarily reflects taxes on international operations and U.S. income taxes. The difference between the income tax provision that would be derived by applying the statutory rate to our income (loss) before provision for income taxes and the income tax provision recorded was primarily attributable to our valuation allowance on U.S. deferred tax assets, research and development credits, U.S. taxes on foreign income, stock-based compensation expense and state taxes driven by Internal Revenue Code Section 174.
At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2026, there were no material changes to either the nature or the amounts of the uncertain tax positions previously determined for fiscal 2025.
Note 15. Segment Information and Geographic Areas
Segment Information
Our chief operating decision maker (CODM), the Chief Executive Officer, manages business activities as a single operating and reportable segment at the consolidated level. The CODM reviews and utilizes consolidated financial information, including revenue, gross profit, operating loss and net loss as reported on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, to assess performance and allocate resources to support strategic priorities. Condensed consolidated net loss is our segment’s primary measure of profit or loss. The measure of segment assets is reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as total consolidated assets.
Our CODM reviews the following significant segment expenses, which are each separately disclosed and presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations: cost of revenue for product, cost of revenue for subscription services, research and development expenses, sales and marketing expenses, and general and administrative expenses. Other segment items within condensed consolidated net loss include restructuring and impairment expenses, other income (expense), net and income tax provision. Other significant noncash segment expenses include stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization.

Note 16. Subsequent Event
In June 2025, we entered into a Credit Agreement with a consortium of financial institutions and lenders that provides for afive-year, senior unsecured revolving credit facility of $500.0 million (2025 Credit Facility). Proceeds from borrowings under the 2025 Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes and working capital. Our Existing Credit Facility was terminated effective June 10, 2025 and outstanding borrowings of $100.0 million were repaid.
The annual interest rates applicable to U.S. Dollar denominated loans under the 2025 Credit Facility are, at our option, equal to either the term SOFR or the daily simple SOFR, in each case, plus a margin initially set at 0.875% per annum. In addition, we will incur a commitment fee on the unused portion of the commitments at an initial rate of 0.075% per annum. The respective margins will fluctuate based on the then-applicable Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and our debt rating.
We are subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants under the 2025 Credit Facility, including a Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio not to exceed 3.5:1 (which may be increased to 4:1 for the first six consecutive fiscal quarters after a qualified acquisition, as defined in the 2025 Credit Agreement) measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the fiscal quarter ending August 3, 2025.
