Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to our growth, our ability to attract and retain merchants, consumers, and Dashers that utilize our platform, the continuing market acceptance of our offerings, the timing and extent of spending to support our efforts to develop our platform, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the timing and extent of spending for policy and worker classification initiatives, and the occurrence of certain conditions triggering the 2030 Notes' conversion feature, which will be required to be settled partially or entirely in cash, or the repurchase of some or all of the 2030 Notes. Further, we have entered into pending, and may in the future enter into additional, arrangements to acquire or invest in businesses, products, services, and technologies. For example, we recently announced a formal offer to acquire Deliveroo plc for 180 pence per share in a recommended final all cash transaction (the "Deliveroo Transaction") and recently closed our acquisition of SevenRooms Inc. in an all-cash transaction. In connection with the Deliveroo Transaction, we entered into (i) a Bridge Term Loan Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Bridge Credit Agreement”) to, among other things, provide a source of financing to partially fund the cash consideration payable by us in the Deliveroo Transaction; and (ii) an Escrow Agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which, we deposited in escrow certain cash amounts to partially fund the cash consideration payable by us in the Deliveroo Transaction.

From and after November 15, 2029, noteholders may convert their 2030 Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. We will have the right to elect to settle conversions either in cash or in a combination of cash and shares of our Class A common stock, provided that, at least the principal amount of the 2030 Notes being converted will be paid in cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity. We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Current wording

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, our growth, our ability to attract and retain merchants, consumers, and Dashers that utilize our platform, the continuing market acceptance of our offerings, the timing and extent of spending to support our efforts to develop our platform, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the timing and extent of spending for policy and worker classification initiatives, and the occurrence of certain conditions triggering the 2030 Notes' conversion feature, which will be required to be settled partially or entirely in cash, or our repurchase of some or all of the 2030 Notes. Further, we have in the past entered into, and may in the future enter into additional, arrangements to acquire or invest in businesses, products, services, and technologies. For example, we recently closed our acquisition of Deliveroo for total cash consideration of approximately £2.8 billion (the "Deliveroo Transaction").. For additional information regarding the Deliveroo Transaction, see Note 9 - "Commitments and Contingencies" included in Part I, Item 1, "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In addition, the 2030 Notes will mature on May 15, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Before November 15, 2029, noteholders will have the right to convert the 2030 Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after November 15, 2029, noteholders may convert their 2030 Notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. We will have the right to elect to settle conversions either in cash or in a combination of cash and shares of our Class A common stock, provided that, at least the principal amount of the 2030 Notes being converted will be paid in cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity. We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.
