MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes market and industry data and forecasts that we have derived from independent consultant reports, publicly available information, and published industry sources, including the November 2025 study that we commissioned from Altman Solon US, LP (the “Altman Solon Report”) and our internal data and estimates, which are derived from management’s knowledge of our industry and such independent sources referred to above. Independent consultant reports, industry publications and other published industry sources generally indicate that the information contained therein was obtained from sources believed to be reliable. Although we believe that these third-party sources are reliable, we do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of this information, and we have not independently verified this information.

In preparing the Altman Solon Report, Altman Solon has made assumptions regarding, among other things, (i) the continued engagement of mobile users with mobile devices and applications, (ii) the ongoing participation and investment of advertisers within the in-app ecosystem, (iii) the sustainability and scalability of third-party ad technology business models, (iv) the persistence of performance-driven advertising and user-acquisition strategies, and (v) the potential evolution and integration of artificial-intelligence-driven applications and conversational interfaces (including AI chatbots) into the broader app ecosystem. These assumptions reflect Altman Solon’s judgment as of the date of its analysis; however, they are inherently uncertain and subject to factors beyond Altman Solon’s control.

Certain internal data and estimates are based upon information obtained from trade and business organizations and other contacts in the markets in which we operate, internal surveys, and our management’s understanding of industry conditions. Although we believe that such information is reliable, we have not had this information verified by any independent sources.

CAUTIONARY NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements are included throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including in the sections entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.” Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about: (1) projections of revenues, expenses, income or loss, earnings or loss per share, cash flow, margins, profitability, capital expenditures, liquidity, capital resources or other financial or operating items; (2) our plans, strategies and objectives, including those relating to our business model, growth strategy, market opportunity, customer retention and expansion, acquisition of new customers, technology innovation, Cortex and AI-related initiatives; (3) future financial or operating performance; (4) our expectations regarding macroeconomic conditions, market trends, competition, regulatory developments, taxes, public company costs, indebtedness, interest rates and other risks affecting our business; (5) our expectations regarding acquisitions, investments, dispositions, financings or other strategic transactions we may pursue; and (6) assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. We may, in some cases, use words such as “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “foreseeable,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potentially,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” or “would,” or similar words or phrases that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes, to identify forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Factors that may cause actual results to differ from expected results include those described in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including those set forth in the “Risk Factors” section in our final prospectus (the “IPO Prospectus”) filed with the SEC on June 4, 2026 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933 relating to our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-295144) (the “IPO Registration Statement”).

The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance, or achievements. There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated by these forward-looking statements, including, among others, risks related to: our ability to retain existing customers, expand customer usage and attract new customers; the fact that we generally do not have long-term commitments from customers; advertiser demand, marketing budgets, customer churn or consolidation, and broader macroeconomic, market, public health and geopolitical conditions, including inflation, interest rates, tariffs and U.S.-China tensions; our dependence on mobile operating systems, app stores, large internet and technology companies, third-party platforms, cloud infrastructure providers, supply partners and other participants in the mobile advertising ecosystem; competition and rapid changes in technology, industry standards and customer needs; our ability to collect, use, disclose and otherwise process data, and evolving privacy, data protection, information security, consumer protection, advertising, tracking, targeting, protection of minors, AI and other legal and regulatory requirements; fraud, malware, cybersecurity incidents, system failures, service interruptions and other technical or operational disruptions; our ability to maintain and scale our technology, including Cortex and other AI capabilities, and develop and introduce new products and services; changes in app store policies, user opt-in or opt-out choices, ad-blocking technologies and other limitations on mobile advertising; our reliance on the continued growth and health of the mobile app ecosystem, including mobile gaming and the broader app economy; fluctuations in our operating results, revenue concentration, market opportunity estimates and key metrics; international operations, including risks associated with China, trade controls, tariffs, sanctions, anti-corruption laws and foreign currency exchange; our ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel and sales teams and manage public company costs; acquisitions, investments, partnerships, financings and other strategic transactions; tax matters, accounting standards, estimates, goodwill or other impairment, stock-based compensation and internal controls, including the material weakness identified in our internal control over financial reporting; legal proceedings and intellectual property and open source software matters; ownership concentration and risks related to our common stock, including stock price volatility, future sales and dilution; and our substantial indebtedness, restrictive debt covenants, interest rate exposure, debt service obligations, liquidity and ability to raise additional capital. This list is not exhaustive. For a more detailed discussion of these and other factors, see the “Risk Factors” section in the IPO Prospectus. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements and information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary in material respects from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or as of the date they are made, as applicable. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions, or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, investments, or other strategic transactions we may make. Except as otherwise required by law, we disclaim any intent or obligation to update any “forward-looking statement” made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events, or changes to future operating results over time.
