Our corporate headquarters is located in Carlsbad, California, with other satellite offices across North America and various other global locations.
Basis of presentation
We prepare our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Arlo and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, which was filed with the SEC on February 27, 2026. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for fair statement of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for interim periods.
Fiscal periods
Our fiscal year begins on January 1 of the year stated and ends on December 31 of the same year. We report the results on a fiscal quarter basis rather than on a calendar quarter basis. Under the fiscal quarter basis, each of the first three fiscal quarters ends on the Sunday closest to the calendar quarter end, with the fourth quarter ending on December 31.
Reclassification
Certain prior periods amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. None of these reclassifications had a material impact to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
Use of estimates
The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Management bases its estimates on various assumptions believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates and operating results for the three months ended March 29, 2026 and are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or any future period.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 29, 2026, there have been no significant changes to such policies except for the items below.
Business combinations
We account for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The purchase consideration for business combinations is measured at fair value as of the acquisition date and includes the fair value of assets transferred, liabilities incurred, and equity interests issued, as well as the fair value of any contingent consideration arrangements. Transaction costs associated with business combinations, such as legal, accounting, and advisory fees, are expensed as incurred and included in other operating expense on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The results of operations of acquired businesses are included in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements from the respective acquisition dates.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized at their acquisition‑date fair values. Any excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill represents the future economic benefits arising from assets acquired that are not individually identifiable and separately recognized. Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to impairment testing at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired.
The determination of the acquisition‑date fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, including assumptions related to forecasted cash flows, discount rates, expected useful lives of intangible assets, and the probability and timing of contingent payments. These estimates are based on information available as of the acquisition date and on assumptions management believes are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from those estimates.
The initial accounting for business combinations may be incomplete as of the reporting date. In such cases, provisional amounts are recorded based on the best information available, and these amounts may be adjusted during the measurement period as additional information is obtained related to facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Measurement period adjustments are recorded retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments to goodwill. The measurement period ends when we receive the information we were seeking about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date, or when it is determined that no additional information is obtainable, but shall not exceedone year from the acquisition date.
Acquired intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recorded at their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated respective useful lives, which is based on our expected period of benefit, generally range from five tothirteen years. Amortization expense is recorded as cost of revenue or general and administrative operating expense on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Intangible assets are assessed for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of assets may not be recoverable.
Accounting pronouncements recently adopted
During the three months ended March 29, 2026, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-06, Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides a practical expedient permitting companies to assume that conditions at the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets. This adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements.
Accounting pronouncements not yet effective
Disclosure improvements. In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, which modifies the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification. Among the various codification amendments, Topic 470 Debt is applicable to Arlo which requires the disclosure of amounts, terms and weighted-average interest rates of unused lines of credit. The effective date is either (i) the date on which the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, or (ii) on June 30, 2027, if the SEC has not removed the requirement by that date, with early adoption prohibited. The adoption of this new standard will not have a material impact on our financial statements and related disclosures.
Expense disaggregation disclosures. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement: Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which improves disclosure requirements and mandates enhanced transparency about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions in financial statements. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and is effective on either a prospective basis or retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance may have on our financial statements and related disclosures.
Software development costs accounting and disclosure. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software: Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which modernizes the recognition and capitalization framework to reflect current software development practices, including iterative and agile methodologies, by removing references to “development stages”. It also clarifies the criteria for capitalization, which begins when both of the following occur: (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and for interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted and is effective on either a prospective basis or retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance may have on our financial statements and related disclosures.
Note 3. Revenue
Contract balances
The following table reflects the changes in contract balances for the three months ended March 29, 2026:
| Contract Classification | Balance Sheet Classification | March 29, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | $ change | % change |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (In thousands) | |||||
| Receivables | Accounts receivable, net | $52,174 | $39,666 | $12,508 | 31.5% |
| Contract liabilities, current | Deferred revenue | $52,187 | $37,139 | $15,048 | 40.5% |
| Contract liabilities, non-current | Other non-current liabilities | $1,239 | $1,476 | $(237) | (16.1)% |
Receivables increased primarily due to higher product and service sales. Contract liabilities increased primarily due to increases in subscriptions and services revenue as a result of changes in consumer subscription plans and a shift to additional annual prepaid subscriptions, as well as increases in cumulative paid accounts and rates of subscriptions. As of March 29, 2026, there wereno contract assets.
For the three months ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025, $21.4 million and $14.6 million, respectively, of the recognized revenue was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the periods. There were no significant changes in estimates during the periods that would affect the contract balances.
Remaining performance obligations
The total estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied and remaining was $54.6 million as of March 29, 2026 and $40.6 million as of December 31, 2025, substantially related to performance obligations classified as less thanone year.
Under the Supply Agreement with Verisure Sàrl (“Verisure”), our largest customer, a performance obligation is not deemed to exist until we receive and accept Verisure’s purchase order. As of March 29, 2026, we had a backlog of $43.4 million which represents performance obligations that will be recognized as revenue once fulfilled, which is expected to occur over the nextsix months.
Variable consideration
Revenue from all sales is recognized at transaction price, the amount we expect to be entitled to in exchange for providing services or transferring goods. Transaction price is calculated as selling price net of variable consideration which includes estimates for sales incentives and sales returns related to current period products revenue. Sales incentives are determined based on a combination of the actual amounts committed and estimated future expenditure based upon historical customary business practice. Sales returns are estimated by analyzing certain factors, including historical sales and returns data, channel inventory levels, current economic trends, and changes in customer demand for our products. Variable consideration estimates are based on predictive historical data or future commitments that we plan and control. However, we continue to assess variable consideration estimates such that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. The following tables provide activities related to sales incentives and sales returns that are recognized as contra-revenue.
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| Sales incentives | March 29,2026 | March 30,2025 |

| Balance at the end of the period | $7,202 | $8,963 |
Disaggregation of revenue
We disaggregate our revenue into three geographic regions: the Americas, EMEA, and APAC, where we conduct our business. The following table presents revenue disaggregated by geographic region.
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| March 29,2026 | March 30,2025 | |

| Total | $150,382 | $119,066 |
For the three months ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025, one customer accounted for 40% and 36% of the total revenue, respectively. No other customer accounted for 10% or greater of the total revenue. As of March 29, 2026, one customer accounted for 60%, and as of December 31, 2025, two customers accounted for 40% and 17% of the total accounts receivable, net. No other customers accounted for 10% or greater of the total accounts receivable, net.
Note 4. Business Combinations
Canary Connect, Inc.
On March 11, 2026, we entered into, and simultaneously closed an Asset Purchase Agreement with Canary Connect, Inc. (“Canary”), a New York-based Internet of Things (“IoT”) company that designs and sells smart home security devices and SaaS solutions. The purpose of this transaction is to expand our presence in the AI-driven smart home security market. The transaction is accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. As a result of the transaction, we obtained control of Canary by obtaining the ability to direct its ongoing operations and to receive substantially all of the economic benefits associated.
As part of this transaction, we also entered into a Transitional Service Agreement with Canary and a Platform Transformation Agreement with Smartfrog & Canary Holdings, Inc. (“Smartfrog Group”) in order to continue servicing Canary’s existing customers and subscribers.
We allocate the purchase consideration to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this business combination based on their acquisition-date fair values, which is determined using income and market-based valuation techniques that require significant judgments and assumptions, including projected revenue, profitability and cash flows. Goodwill recognized through our business combinations represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets and is primarily attributable to expected synergies and operational efficiencies and anticipated future economic benefits. The resulting goodwill from the Canary acquisition is deductible for income tax purposes.
The preliminary fair value estimates of the net assets acquired are based upon preliminary calculations and valuations, and those estimates and assumptions are subject to change as we obtain additional information for those estimates during the measurement period, which is up toone year from the acquisition date. The acquired intangible assets will be amortized over their estimated useful lives.
The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of the following (in thousands):
| Cash paid at close | $36,000 |
|---|---|
| Fixed deferred acquisition consideration | 12,907 |
| Total purchase consideration | $48,907 |
The purchase price allocation are as follows (in thousands):
| Assets acquired: | |
|---|---|
| Inventory | $1,911 |
| Intangible assets | 19,490 |
| Goodwill | 27,506 |
| Total assets acquired | $48,907 |
| Liabilities assumed: | |
| Total liabilities assumed | $— |
| Fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, net | $48,907 |
During the three months ended March 29, 2026, we recorded $0.5 million acquisition-related costs, which are expensed when incurred and included in other operating expense on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
During the three months ended March 29, 2026, Canary’s results of operations are not material and are included within our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements from an effective date of March 1, 2026. The effect of this business combination was not material to our financial results. Therefore, the actual and pro-forma results of operations subsequent to the acquisition date to March 29, 2026 have not been presented.
Aloe Care Health, Inc.
On April 16, 2026, we entered into, and simultaneously closed a Merger Agreement with Aloe Care Health, Inc. (“Aloe Care”), a privately held company that provides an AI-powered medical alert and fall prevention platform for patients and their caregivers. The transaction is intended to accelerate the expansion of our AI-powered services for aging-in-place care in collaboration with health providers, patients and their families. Under the Merger Agreement, we acquired 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Aloe Care in exchange for (i) $15.0 million of cash consideration paid at closing; and (ii) contingent earnout of up to $25.0 million, payable, at our option, in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares, subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement. The transaction will be accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. As a result of the transaction, we obtained control of Aloe Care by obtaining the ability to direct its ongoing operations and to receive substantially all of the economic benefits associated with Aloe Care.
During the three months ended March 29, 2026, we recorded $0.8 million acquisition-related costs, which are expensed when incurred and included in other operating expense on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
The initial accounting for this business combination is incomplete at the date of this filing as a result of limited time between the acquisition date and the filing date. Accordingly, certain disclosures required under ASC 805, Business Combinations, including the preliminary fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, pre-acquisition contingencies and any residual goodwill have not been provided. We are in the process of gathering the necessary information to complete the accounting for the transaction. Such information will be included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending on June 28, 2026.

Note 6. Fair Value Measurements
The following table summarizes assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
| As of | ||
|---|---|---|
| March 29,2026 | December 31,2025 | |
| (In thousands) | ||
| Cash equivalents: money-market funds (<90 days) | $49,892 | $71,987 |
| Cash equivalents: U.S. Treasuries (<90 days) | 23,699 | 20,506 |
| Available-for-sale securities: U.S. Treasuries (1) | 14,862 | 19,985 |
| Total | $88,453 | $112,478 |
(1)Included in short-term investments on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Our short-term investments in cash equivalents and marketable securities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued based on quoted market prices in active markets. As of March 29, 2026 and December 31, 2025, assets and liabilities measured as Level 2 fair value were not material.
Sale of long-term investment
During the three months ended March 29, 2026, we sold our investment in connection with a privately held company’s acquisition by a public company. This investment was accounted for as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value and was measured at cost, less impairment, adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment in the same issuer in accordance with ASC 321, Investments-Equity Securities. Upon completion of the sale, we received total cash proceeds of $18.9 million and recognized a realized gain of $6.4 million, representing the excess of proceeds received over the carrying value of the investment. The gain from the sale of the investment is included in other income (expense), net on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
Our Chief Executive Officer served on the board of directors of the privately held company and, as a result, the investee is considered a related party and the sale of our investment is a related party transaction.
As of March 29, 2026, there were no financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis within Level 3 fair value measurements. Our non-financial assets, such as property and equipment, goodwill, and intangible assets are assessed for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable.
Note 7. Revolving Credit Facility
On November 14, 2024, we entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as administrative agent, issuing bank, and lender. The Credit Agreement provides for athree-year revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) of up to $45.0 million that matures on November 14, 2027, which also includes a $10.0 million sublimit for the issuance thereunder of letters of credit. As of March 29, 2026, we had unused borrowing capacity of $45.0 million based on the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. In addition, the Credit Agreement includes an uncommitted accordion feature that allows us to, from time to time, request an increase to the aggregate revolving loan commitments by up to an additional $30.0 million in the aggregate, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The proceeds of the borrowings under the Credit Facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of our assets, including substantially all of the assets of a material subsidiary, Arlo Technologies International Limited, a limited corporation organized under the laws of Ireland. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a floating rate equal to: (i) the term secured overnight financing rate plus the applicable rate of 2.25% to 2.75%, or (ii) the base rate plus the applicable rate of 1.25% to 1.75% both determined based on a total net leverage ratio. Among other fees, we are required to pay a quarterly unused fee of 0.20% per annum on the amount by which the lenders’ aggregate commitment under the Credit Facility exceeds the daily revolver usage during such quarter. The Credit Agreement contains events of default, representations and warranties, and affirmative and negative covenants customary for credit facilities of this type. The Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants that require us to (i) maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.50 to 1.00 and (ii) maintain a total net leverage ratio, not to exceed 3.00 to 1.00; both covenants being tested quarterly on a trailing four consecutive fiscal quarter basis.
As of March 29, 2026, we were in compliance with all the covenants under the Credit Agreement. No amount had been drawn under the Credit Facility as of March 29, 2026.
Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies
Operating leases
Our operating lease obligations mostly include offices, equipment, and distribution centers, with various expiration dates through June 2033. Certain lease agreements include options to renew or terminate the lease, which are generally not reasonably certain to be exercised and therefore are not factored into our determination of lease payments. The terms of certain leases provide for rental payments on a graduated scale. Gross lease expense was $0.8 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended March 29, 2026 and March 30, 2025, respectively.
Supplemental cash flow information related to operating leases is as follows:
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| March 29,2026 | March 30,2025 | |
| (In thousands) | ||
| Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities | ||
| Operating cash flows from operating leases | $567 | $1,196 |
| Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease liabilities | ||
| Operating leases | $— | $13 |
Weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate related to operating leases are as follows:
| As of | ||
|---|---|---|
| March 29,2026 | December 31,2025 | |
| Weighted average remaining lease term | 5.4 years | 5.5 years |
| Weighted average discount rate | 7.74% | 7.68% |
The future minimum undiscounted lease payments under operating leases for each of the next five years and thereafter as of March 29, 2026 were as follows:
| 2026 (Remaining nine months) | $1,922 |
| 2027 | 2,374 |
| 2028 | 1,319 |
| 2029 | 1,021 |
| 2030 | 994 |
| Thereafter | 2,622 |
| Total future lease payments | $10,252 |
| Less: imputed interest | (2,019) |
| Present value of future minimum lease payments | $8,233 |
| Accrued liabilities | $2,003 |
| Non-current operating lease liabilities | 6,230 |
| Total lease liabilities | $8,233 |
Purchase obligations
We have entered into various inventory-related purchase agreements with suppliers. Generally, under these agreements,50% of orders are cancelable by giving notice 46 to 60 days prior to the expected shipment date and 25% of orders are cancelable by giving notice 31 to 45 days prior to the expected shipment date. Orders are non-cancelable within 30 days prior to the expected shipment date. As of March 29, 2026, we had $35.6 million in non-cancelable purchase commitments with suppliers which is expected to be paid over the next twelve months.
As of March 29, 2026, an additional $29.9 million of purchase orders beyond contractual termination periods have been issued to supply chain partners in anticipation of demand requirements. Consequently, we may incur expenses for the materials and components, such as chipsets already purchased by the supplier to fulfill our orders if the purchase order is cancelled. Expenses incurred have historically not been material relative to the original order value.
Tariff matters
The U.S. government has implemented tariff measures affecting a broad range of imported materials, and these measures have been subject to change. We are actively monitoring the changes in global trade policy and the effects they may have on our business and broader macroeconomic environment. Given the uncertainty surrounding global markets as a result of the fluid U.S. tariff policy, we do not have clarity at this point over the potential medium to long term impacts our business may face. We continue to monitor and evaluate these developments and assess their potential impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. As of March 29, 2026, we have not recorded any receivables for potential tariff refunds or derecognition of tariff liabilities.
Litigation and other legal matters
We are, and from time to time, we may become involved in disputes, litigation, and other legal actions in the ordinary course of business. At each reporting period, we evaluate whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under the provisions of the authoritative guidance that addresses accounting for contingencies. Significant judgment is required to determine both the probability and the estimated amount of loss. In such cases, we accrue for the amount or, if a range, we accrue the low end of the range, only if there is not a better estimate than any other amount within the range, as litigation reserves in other operating expense on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). We monitor developments in these legal matters that could affect the estimate we had previously accrued. We currently believe that there are no existing claims or proceedings that are likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position within the next 12 months. There are many uncertainties associated with any litigation, and these actions or other third-party claims against us may cause us to incur costly litigation and/or substantial settlement charges. In addition, the resolution of any intellectual property litigation may require us to make royalty payments, which could have an adverse effect in future periods. If any of those events were to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be adversely affected. The actual liability in any such matters may be materially different from our estimates, which could result in the need to adjust the liability and record additional expenses.
Indemnifications
In the ordinary course of business, we may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to customers, distributors, resellers, vendors, lessors, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters including, but not limited to, losses arising from breach of such agreements or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with members of our Board of Directors and certain of our executive officers that require us, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is, in many cases, unlimited. As of March 29, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnification obligations and we are not currently aware of any indemnification claims.
Note 9. Employee Benefit Plans
We grant options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”), under which awards may be granted to all employees. We also grant performance-based and market-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) to our executive officers and other senior employees periodically. Award vesting periods for the 2018 Plan are generally three tofive years. As of March 29, 2026,3.3 million shares were available for future grants. Options may be granted for periods of up to 10 years or such shorter term as may be provided in the agreement and at prices no less than 100% of the fair market value of Arlo’s common stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the 2018 Plan generally vest over three tofour years, the first tranche at the end of 12 months and the remaining shares underlying the option vesting monthly over the remaining years.
On January 23, 2026, we registered an aggregate of up to 4,200,189 shares of common stock under the 2018 Plan on a Registration Statement on Form S-8 pursuant to an “evergreen” provision contained in the 2018 Plan.

PSU activity
Our executive officers and other senior employees have been granted PSUs with some vesting occurring when performance conditions are met. The number of units earned and eligible to vest are determined based on the achievement of various performance conditions, including annual recurring revenue, cumulative paid accounts, subscriptions and services gross profit and gross margin, and the recipients’ continued services. At the end of each reporting period, we evaluate the probability of achieving the performance conditions and record the related stock-based compensation expense based on the estimated achievement over the service period.

Stock-based compensation expense
The following table sets forth the stock-based compensation expense by line item on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss):
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| March 29,2026 | March 30,2025 | |
| (In thousands) | ||
| Cost of revenue | $1,374 | $1,117 |
| Research and development | 7,171 | 3,900 |
| Sales and marketing | 3,174 | 3,073 |
| General and administrative | 8,015 | 8,922 |
| Stock-based compensation, net of amounts capitalized | $19,734 | $17,012 |
| Capitalized stock-based compensation | 305 | 601 |
| Total stock-based compensation | $20,039 | $17,613 |
As of March 29, 2026, all outstanding options were fully vested, therefore, there wasno unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options. As of March 29, 2026, $106.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs and PSUs is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.
Note 10. Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 29, 2026 was $0.4 million or an effective tax rate of 2.7% . The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 30, 2025 was $0.5 million or an effective tax rate of (150.8)%. Provision for income taxes decreased for the three months ended March 29, 2026, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to the elimination of the mandatory capitalization of research and development expenses, resulting in higher current deductions, lower taxable income and a reduced income tax provision. The lower effective tax rate for the three months ended March 29, 2026, compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate, is primarily driven by lower tax rate on foreign earnings and valuation allowance on our net U.S. deferred tax assets and certain foreign tax attributes.
We evaluated the realizability of deferred tax assets on a jurisdictional basis in accordance with ASC 740 Income taxes. A valuation allowance is maintained when it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of March 29, 2026, we continue to maintain a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets at both federal and state levels. In making this determination, we considered all available positive and negative evidence, with greater weight given to objectively verifiable evidence.
Although we have recently generated cumulative pre-tax income, we determined that we have not yet demonstrated a sustained level of profitability sufficient to support realization of the deferred tax assets. We also considered forecasted future taxable income; however, such projections are inherently uncertain and do not outweigh the available negative evidence. Based on the totality of evidence, we concluded that it is not more-likely-than-not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been maintained as of March 29, 2026. There is a reasonable possibility that within the next few quarters, sufficient positive evidence will become available to reach a conclusion that all or a significant portion of the valuation allowance against our U.S. net deferred tax assets would no longer be required.

Note 12. Segment and Geographic Information
Segment information
We operate asone operating and reportable segment. Our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis and considers budget-to-actual variances quarterly for allocation of operating and capital resources and evaluation of financial performance. The CODM does not review segment assets at a different asset level and category. The consolidated net income (loss) is the measure of segment net income (loss) that is most consistent with U.S. GAAP.
The CODM is regularly provided with not only the consolidated expenses on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), but also the significant segment expenses and other segment items as below:

Note 13. Stock Repurchase Program
On February 3, 2026, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program for up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of shares of Arlo’s common stock through open market purchases in a manner deemed to be in the best interests of our company and stockholders, considering the economic cost and prevailing market conditions, including the relative trading prices and volumes of Arlo’s common stock. The stock repurchase program is expected to continue through December 31, 2027, unless extended or shortened by the Board of Directors.
The timing and actual number of shares repurchased under the repurchase program depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and other investment opportunities. Shares may be repurchased through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. During the three months ended March 29, 2026, we repurchased and subsequently retired 0.6 million shares of Arlo common stock for an aggregate repurchase amount of $8.0 million. As of March 29, 2026, $42.0 million remained available and authorized for future repurchases.
