Provision for Income Taxes
Current report
General and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $11 million, or 6%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of approximately $26 million in personnel costs, including stock-based compensation, primarily related to RSUs with a performance condition that was satisfied upon our IPO in the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Provision for Income Taxes
Current report
Provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2026 changed unfavorably by $38 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Current report
The increase in tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, is primarily due to an increase in losses before income taxes and the inability to record a tax benefit from deferred tax assets generated.

We expect capital investments will continue to be financed through a similar mix of debt and equity securities issuances, delayed draw term loan facilities, OEM financing arrangements, and cash from our balance sheet.
Current report
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, cash paid for property and equipment was $7.7 billion and $1.4 billion, respectively.

Technology and infrastructure expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $1.4 billion, or 253%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in depreciation and amortization of approximately $1.1 billion, from $491 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, to $1.6 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. These increases in depreciation and amortization were related to investments in our platform and servers, switches, and other networking equipment fixed assets within our technology infrastructure, as well as an increase of approximately $248 million of personnel costs, of which $148 million related to stock-based compensation expense.
Previous report
Sales and marketing expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $79 million, or 620%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $37 million in personnel costs, of which $19 million related to stock-based compensation expense, and an increase of $29 million of advertising and sponsorship expenses.
Previous report
General and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $118 million, or 352%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $97 million in personnel-related expenses, which includes headcount growth to support our expanding operations and $74 million related to stock-based compensation expense. Professional services expenses also increased by approximately $25 million, primarily from accounting, tax, legal, and advisory services necessary to support our growth, acquisitions and public company compliance activities.
Previous report
General and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $430 million, or 605%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Previous report
Other income, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 changed unfavorably by $11 million, or 33%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Provision for (benefit from) Income Taxes
Previous report
Provision for (benefit from) income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2025 changed favorably by $168 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. Provision for (benefit from) income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 changed favorably by $130 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
We recorded income tax expense in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 despite experiencing pre-tax losses in part due to nondeductible losses on fair value adjustments and projected limitations on our ability to realize certain tax benefits, which resulted in our continuing to maintain a full valuation allowance on its U.S. deferred tax assets. The benefit from the period-over-period income taxes is primarily to do with the OBBBA, enacted on July 4, 2025, allowing the deduction of business interest expense that was previously limited under prior U.S. tax law, coupled with a smaller increase in our deferred tax assets, on which there is a full valuation allowance.

The provision for (benefit from) income taxes consists primarily of income taxes in certain federal, state, local and foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Foreign jurisdictions typically have different statutory tax rates from those in the United States. Accordingly, our effective tax rates may vary depending on the impact of the valuation allowance and nondeductible items, such as fair value adjustments to derivatives, as well as the relative proportion of foreign income to domestic income, generation of tax credits, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in tax laws.
Current wording
The provision for income taxes consists primarily of income taxes in certain U.S. federal, state, local and foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct business, net of any valuation allowance. Foreign jurisdictions typically have different statutory tax rates from those in the United States. Accordingly, our effective tax rate might fluctuate significantly in the future due to changes in the mix of income and losses in jurisdictions with a wide range of tax rates, the effect of acquisitions, changes resulting from the amount of recorded valuation allowance, permanent differences between U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, certain one-time items, and local tax laws, and changes in tax contingencies.

Previous wording
Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $781 million, or 134%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $2.4 billion, or 205%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This substantial growth was related to increased demand from both existing and new customer contracts and our ability to rapidly scale our operations, emphasizing the strength of our customer relationships and our ability to meet the evolving needs of the industry. Approximately 80% and 91% of the increase in revenue was attributable to expansion within our existing customer base and the remaining increase was attributable to new customers for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.
Current wording
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $1.1 billion, or 112%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Approximately 38% of the increase in revenue was attributable to expansion within our existing customer base and the remaining increase was attributable to new customers for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Previous wording
Cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $226 million, or 158%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to higher costs directly related to running our data centers to support the significant increase in customer demand, driven by the successful deployment of new and expanded data centers, which resulted in an increase in rent expense of approximately $120 million, an increase in data center utilities and power spend of approximately $53 million. The increase is also attributable to an increase in depreciation and amortization related to data center infrastructure and leasehold improvements of approximately $23 million, and an increase in personnel costs of approximately $16 million, which includes headcount growth of employees directly associated with data centers and $3 million related to stock-based compensation expense.
Current wording
Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $454 million, or 173%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Gain (loss) on fair value adjustments for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 changed favorably by $776 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. These changes were driven by a relative decrease in the period in the valuation of derivatives and warrants tied to our common stock and redeemable convertible preferred stock within the periods presented. On March 21, 2025, we executed an amendment with the warrant holders to fix the exercise price, resulting in a final mark to market of the warrants and a reclassification of the final value of the warrants for common stock within additional paid-in capital, and therefore, there was no activity for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Previous wording
We believe our existing balance of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, in addition to amounts available for borrowing under our various debt agreements, will be sufficient to meet our obligations due or anticipated to be due within one year from the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including operating expenses, working capital, and current commitments for capital expenditures. Our future capital requirements may depend on many factors, including those set forth in the section of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q entitled "Risk Factors." We anticipate that future investments may require significant debt and/or equity financing. The sale of additional equity would result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of additional debt would result in debt service obligations, and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operational and/or financial covenants that further restrict our operations. There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital on favorable terms or at all. The inability to raise capital could adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objectives.
Current wording
We have generated significant losses from operations, as reflected in our accumulated deficit of $3.4 billion as of March 31, 2026.
