Table of Contents rates, market multiples, the selection of comparable companies, and the probability of possible future events. Changes in any or all of these estimates and assumptions or the relationships between those assumptions impact our valuations as of each valuation date and may have a material impact on the valuation of our common stock. Following this offering, it will not be necessary to determine the fair value of our common stock, as the shares of our common stock will be traded in the public market. Fair Value of Convertible Notes, Derivative Liabilities, and SAFEs We elected to account for our convertible notes at fair value pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 825, Financial Instruments. The convertible notes are recognized at their estimated fair value on our consolidated balance sheet, and changes in fair value are recorded in change in fair value of convertible notes, derivative liabilities, and SAFEs in our consolidated statement of operations. We elected the fair value option to eliminate the accounting complexity that would otherwise result from separately accounting for the liability and equity components of the convertible notes under the traditional bifurcation model. In connection with the 2023 and 2024 note purchase agreements with both Amazon and Google, we recognized derivative liabilities representing obligations to issue future convertible notes pursuant to the terms of those agreements. The derivative liabilities were measured at estimated fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in change in fair value of convertible notes, derivative liabilities, and SAFEs in the consolidated statement of operations. The estimated fair value of the convertible promissory notes is determined using a hybrid approach comprising a CCA and a CSE method. The analysis estimates the fair value of the convertible promissory notes using a scenario-based analysis that considers the probability-weighted present value of the instruments across the range of possible outcomes available to the note holders, including conversion into redeemable convertible preferred stock, Class N common stock, cash repayment at maturity, and cash settlement at a premium upon a change of control. The scenarios included consider the probability-weighted value of the instruments in the CCA and CSE framework. The application of this methodology involves the use of complex and subjective estimates, judgments, and assumptions, including the probability and timing of each settlement scenario such as a qualified equity financing, initial public offering, direct listing, or change of control; the estimated fair value of our equity securities into which the notes may convert; the applicable conversion prices, which vary by note series and are contingent on factors such as elapsed time since issuance and contractual caps and percentage discounts; and the ownership thresholds and rollover provisions that determine the extent to which principal balances convert into equity versus being reissued as rollover notes. In particular, the ownership cap and rollover mechanism— whereby conversion is capped at specified ownership thresholds and any unconverted principal balance is re- issued as a non-interest bearing rollover note that remains subject to fair value measurement—requires significant judgment in estimating what proportion of each note financing will convert versus roll over, because this determination depends on the size and structure of future equity financings that are inherently uncertain. Changes in any or all of these estimates and assumptions, or the relationships between those assumptions, impact our valuations as of each measurement date and may have a material impact on the amounts recognized in our consolidated statement of operations. The fair value option election described above also applied to the SAFEs that we issued during the year ended December 31, 2023. The SAFEs were measured at estimated fair value using the same scenario-based framework, with the monetary settlement amount fixed at inception and the number of equity shares received upon conversion being variable; consistent with the convertible notes, changes in fair value were recorded in change in fair value of convertible notes, derivative liabilities, and SAFEs in the consolidated statement of operations. All SAFEs were converted into redeemable convertible preferred stock during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2024, and no SAFEs remained outstanding as of December 31, 2024 or 2025. No SAFEs were outstanding at any point during the six months ended June 30, 2026. Accordingly, the primary ongoing estimation exposure under the fair value option relates to the convertible notes and rollover notes described above. 175
