• We expect advertising revenue to grow as we continue to expand advertiser relationships and increase advertising inventory across the Life360 platform.
• We maintain a full valuation allowance on our California state tax credits and Canadian Scientific Research and Experimental Development credits as we have concluded that it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.
• We review several operating metrics, including the following KPIs, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, develop financial forecasts, and make strategic decisions.
• We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, together with cash generated from subscriptions, hardware tracking devices, advertising activities, and partnerships, including the sale of aggregated, non-personally identifiable data for data insight purposes, will be sufficient to support working capital and capital expenditure requirements in line with our capital deployment…

• As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had deferred revenue of $65.3 million and $50.7 million, respectively, of which $54.4 million and $46.4 million is expected to be recorded as revenue in the following 12 months, provided all other revenue recognition criteria have been met.
