Bark, Inc.

Previous wording

Recent and potential future changes to U.S. and international trade policy, including the imposition of new or increased tariffs, duties, or other trade restrictions, could increase our cost of goods sold and adversely affect our supply chain, particularly for products sourced internationally, such as those manufactured in China. The macroeconomic impacts of such tariffs could also reduce consumer discretionary spending, which would impact our revenue. While we have taken steps to mitigate potential cost increases and impacts to our revenue—such as negotiating with suppliers and diversifying sourcing and taking steps to avoid increasing the price of our products and services—these efforts may not fully offset the impact of such policies. Continued or expanded tariffs, retaliatory trade measures, or supply chain disruptions resulting from trade tensions could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. Please see Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Factors Affecting Our Performance—IEEPA tariffs, for more discussion regarding tariffs previously paid and potential refunds.

Previous wording

As of June 30, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $16.1 million. In the future, we could be required to raise capital through public or private financing or other debt arrangements. Such capital may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could harm our business. We may sell common stock, convertible securities and other equity securities in one or more transactions at prices and in a manner as we may determine from time to time. If we sell any such securities in subsequent transactions, investors in our common stock may be materially diluted. New investors in such subsequent transactions could gain rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock. Debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and could reduce our operational flexibility or profitability. We may be forced to raise capital on undesirable terms or be unable to grow our business or respond to competitive pressures, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Previous wording

We currently have options and RSUs outstanding that are convertible into shares of our common stock. We also have the ability to issue equity awards that are convertible into shares of our common stock under our 2021 Equity Incentive Plan and under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, see Note 8—Stockholders’ Equity, and Note 9— Stock-Based Compensation Plans, to our consolidated financial statements set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We may issue additional shares of common stock or other equity securities of equal or senior rank in the future in connection with, among other things, future acquisitions or repayment of outstanding indebtedness, without stockholder approval, in a number of circumstances. Our issuance of additional shares of common stock or other equity securities of equal or senior rank would dilute our existing stockholders and may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
