Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
In connection with an acquisition, on January 2, 2026, we issued 172,780 shares of our Class A common stock (the “Shares”) to certain former stockholders of the acquired company, as partial consideration for our acquisition of the outstanding capital stock of said company. The Shares were issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act (or Regulation D or Regulation S promulgated thereunder) in a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering. The recipients of the Shares represented their intentions to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof, and appropriate legends were placed upon the book-entry shares issued in the transaction. All recipients of the Shares either received adequate information about us or had access, through their relationships with us, to such information.

Convertible Notes, 2030 Convertible Notes, 2032 Convertible Notes, and both series of Senior Notes (collectively, the “Notes”). In January 2026, our board of directors approved a $2.0 billion increase in the authorization of our previously announced repurchase program from $2.0 billion to $4.0 billion (as modified, the “Repurchase Program”). Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market (including through trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act), in privately negotiated transactions, in a tender offer, or by other methods in accordance with the applicable federal and state laws and regulations. The timing and amount of any repurchases will depend on market conditions and other considerations, and will be made at management’s discretion. The Repurchase Program does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares of our Class A common stock or Notes and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time.
