Current report

(1)Customer count previously disclosed for prior periods has been adjusted to reflect the definition of “customer” as described below under “Number of Customers Over $100,000 in ARR”, which we previously updated in the fiscal quarter ended May 3, 2025.

Current report

To better reflect the structure of our largest enterprise customers, who often have multiple subsidiaries and grow through mergers and acquisitions, we adjusted our definition of a customer in the fiscal quarter ended May 3, 2025. Previously, separate entities within a larger organization were counted as individual customers. We now define a customer as an entity, or group of affiliated entities with a shared parent organization, that has ARR of greater than $1,000 at the end of a reporting period. This better aligns with our current go-to-market strategy and how we assign sales representatives to customer accounts. Determinations regarding the relationship between customer entities are primarily based on publicly available information and information supplied to us by our customers, and we have not independently verified the legal relationship between entities in all cases. Our customer count is subject to adjustments for mergers and acquisitions, spin-offs, segmentation by geography, and other market and commercial activity.

Current report

Research and development expense increased by $44.9 million, or 15%, for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 compared to the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025, primarily due to a $26.5 million increase in employee-related costs, which included a $19.0 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and a $7.6 million increase in salaries, benefits, and related employer taxes. The increase in research and development expense was also due to a $8.3 million increase in cloud and cellular costs and a $7.2 million increase in costs associated with software subscriptions.

Current report

Interest income and other income, net, increased by $13.9 million, or 35%, for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 compared to the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025. This increase was impacted by $5.7 million in unrealized gains from strategic investments, $5.0 million increase in foreign currency gains, and $3.4 million increase in interest income earned on a larger balance of our marketable debt securities and money market funds.
Removed paragraphs (16)

Previous report

In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development introduced a new global minimum corporate tax of 15%, commonly referred to as Pillar Two. While the United States has not yet adopted the Pillar Two rules, various other international governments are enacting legislation which will apply to us beginning in fiscal year 2026. We do not currently expect to have a material impact from the Pillar Two legislation, but we expect to incur additional costs related to compliance with this legislation. We will continue to monitor United States and global legislative action related to Pillar Two for potential impacts.

Previous report

Research and development expense increased by $41.1 million, or 16%, for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025 compared to the fiscal year ended February 3, 2024, primarily due to a $31.0 million increase in employee-related costs, which included a $20.5 million increase in salaries and benefits and related employer taxes and a $10.5 million increase in stock-based compensation expense, primarily due to increased headcount to support our research and development organization. The increase in research and development expense was also due to a $5.2 million increase in software subscriptions, IT, hosting and cellular-related costs, a $2.8 million increase in expenses relating to contractor and other professional services, and a $1.5 million increase in prototyping expenses. The increase in research and development expense was partially offset by an extra week in our fiscal year 2024.

Previous report

Lease modification, impairment, and related charges decreased by $0.7 million, or 15%, for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025 compared to the fiscal year ended February 3, 2024.

Previous report

Legal settlement expense decreased by $67.8 million for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025 compared to the fiscal year ended February 3, 2024, primarily due to a $68.7 million settlement agreement reached with a landlord in January 2024, wherein we made a cash payment of $60.0 million and forgave an $8.7 million drawdown against a letter of credit made by the landlord in November 2021.

Previous report

Interest income and other income, net, decreased by $0.4 million, or 1%, for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2025 compared to the fiscal year ended February 3, 2024. $2.8 million of this decrease was due to an increase in foreign currency losses and $1.9 million of this decrease was due to lower interest income earned on our cash balances as a result of a smaller average balance in our money market funds. These decreases were partially offset by a $4.1 million increase due to interest income earned on a larger investment base of our managed portfolio of marketable debt securities and the net accretion of discounts on these securities.

Previous report

Cash provided by (used in) operating activities mainly consists of our net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, including stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, net accretion of discounts on marketable debt securities, lease modification, impairment, and related charges, non-cash legal settlement, and non-cash operating lease costs, and changes in operating assets and liabilities during each period.

Previous report

Revenue is recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

Previous report

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

Previous report

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

Previous report

identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

Previous report

allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

Previous report

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

Previous report

The combined performance obligation is satisfied over time, as we continually provide access to and fulfill our obligation to the customer over the subscription term. Accordingly, the fixed consideration related to the combined performance obligation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term, beginning on the date that access to the Connected Operations Platform or specified application and connected device is provided.

Previous report

Our subscription contracts typically have an initial term of three to five years and are generally non-cancelable and non-refundable, subject to limited exceptions under our standard terms of service and other exceptions for public sector customers, who are often subject to annual budget appropriation cycles. Our subscription contracts typically transfer title to the connected device to the customer upon shipment and are invoiced monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, annually, or in advance.

Expenses Excluded from Non-GAAP Performance Financial Measures

Current wording

Expenses (Income) Excluded from Non-GAAP Performance Financial Measures

Previous wording

Stock-based compensation expense-related charges include the amortization of deferred stock-based compensation expense for capitalized software and employer taxes on employee equity transactions. Stock-based compensation expense is excluded because it is a non-cash expense and is dependent on our stock price, which is beyond our control. Further, because of varying available valuation methodologies and award types, we find it useful to exclude stock-based compensation expense in order to better understand our ongoing operational performance. Employer taxes on employee equity transactions, which are a cash expense, are excluded because such taxes are directly tied to the timing and size of employee equity transactions and the future fair market value of our common stock, which may vary from period to period independent of the operating performance of our business.

Non-GAAP Income (Loss) from Operations and Non-GAAP Operating Margin

Previous wording

We define non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, or non-GAAP operating income (loss), as income (loss) from operations excluding the effect of stock-based compensation expense-related charges, lease modification, impairment, and related charges, and legal settlements. Non-GAAP operating margin is defined as non-GAAP operating income (loss) as a percentage of total revenue. We use non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and non-GAAP operating margin in conjunction with traditional GAAP measures to evaluate our financial performance. We believe that non-GAAP income (loss) from operations and non-GAAP operating margin provide our management and investors consistency and comparability with our past financial performance and facilitate period-to-period comparisons of operations. The following table presents a reconciliation of our non-GAAP income (loss) from operations to our GAAP loss from operations for the periods presented (in thousands, except percentages):

Current wording

(3)In January 2024, we settled non-recurring lease-related litigation and made a cash payment of $60.0 million. In November 2025, we settled an unrelated non-recurring legal matter, net of insurance proceeds, for $1.2 million. Both the legal settlement and insurance proceeds individually were not material to our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Previous wording

Since our founding, we have financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity securities and payments received from our customers. In December 2021, we completed our IPO, which resulted in aggregate net proceeds of $846.7 million, including proceeds from the underwriters’ exercise of their option to purchase additional shares of our Class A common stock in January 2022 and net of underwriting discounts and commissions. We have generated significant operating losses from our operations, as reflected in our accumulated deficit of $1,610.0 million as of February 1, 2025. We intend to continue investing in our business, and as a result, we may require additional capital resources to execute on our strategic initiatives to grow our business, particularly if we generate negative cash flows in future quarters. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term investments will be sufficient to support working capital, including our non-cancelable arrangements, and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months.
