Stockholders
As of February 20, 2026, we had 29 holders of record of our Class A common stock and 34 holders of record of our Class B common stock.

Any future determination to declare cash dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, subject to applicable laws, and will depend on a number of factors, including our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, any contractual restrictions, general business conditions, and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant.
