Table of Contents Industry, Market, and Other Data Unless otherwise indicated, data, estimates, and other information contained in this prospectus concerning our industry and the market in which we operate, including our general expectations, market position, market opportunity, and market size, are based on industry publications and reports generated by third-party providers, other publicly available studies, and our internal sources and estimates. This information involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. Although we are responsible for all of the disclosure contained in this prospectus and we believe the information from the industry publications and other third-party sources included in this prospectus is reliable, we have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the data contained in such sources. Forecasts and other forward-looking information with respect to market and industry data and other data are subject to the same qualifications and additional uncertainties regarding the other forward-looking statements in this prospectus. See the section titled “Special Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements” for more information. The content of, or accessibility through, the below sources, except to the extent specifically set forth in this prospectus, does not constitute a portion of this prospectus and is not incorporated herein and any websites are inactive textual references only. The sources of the statistical data, estimates, and market and industry data contained in this prospectus are identified by superscript notations and are provided below: • • • • IDC, The Economic Impact of AI: 2026 Edition, doc # US54452226, April 2026. IDC, Worldwide Black Book: Live Edition V2 2026 Forecast, July 2026. IDC, Worldwide Developer Population Growth Forecast, 2025–2029, doc # US53789825, September 2025.

The industry in which we operate is subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the reports and estimates made by the aforementioned third parties and by us. Certain estimates in this prospectus regarding global knowledge workers’ wages, which we refer to as the annual economic value represented by global knowledge workers, are our own, derived from third-party data. Based on wage data for U.S. workers by occupation classification from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics in 2025, we calculate the total salary for the subset of workers that we believe to represent knowledge workers. Based on International Labor Organization data for global labor income as a percentage of global GDP, and based on 2025 global GDP, we estimate a 2025 global wages figure. We calculate the ratio of total U.S. wages in 2025 to the 2025 global wages figure, and apply that ratio to the total U.S. knowledge workers’ wages figure to arrive at an estimate of global knowledge workers’ wages. 123
