- Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any periods in the future.
- We intend to continue to invest in the development and enhancement of our products to expand their capabilities and allow our users to realize the full benefit of our offerings.
- We expect engineers, designers, and product managers to represent a significant portion of our employees for the foreseeable future.
- As a result, the impact resulting from our research and development investments may be difficult to forecast.
- We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to support working capital and capital expenditure requirements, and any future share repurchases, for at least the next 12 months.
- The timing and amount of any repurchases will be determined at the Company’s discretion, and the program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of shares.
- As of September 30, 2026, our deferred revenues balance was $513.6 million and is expected to be recognized as revenue within the next 12 months, provided all other revenue recognition criteria have been met.
- To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows will be affected.
