 by us. The principal purposes of this offering are to facilitate the sale of Class A common stock for the selling stockholders in this offering and to obtain additional capital. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes, which may include:

| • |     | payment of tax withholding and remittance obligations in connection with the periodic vesting and net settlement 
 of outstanding RSUs granted to our employees;                                                                    |

| • |     | investment in new products and capabilities; |

| • |     | investment in expanding awareness, usage, and distribution of our products; and |

| • |     | potential acquisitions involving new products, offerings, and technologies, although we have no commitments with 
 respect to any such acquisitions at this time.                                                                   |

We have not yet determined our anticipated expenditures and therefore cannot estimate the amounts to be used for each of the purposes discussed above. The amount and timing of our actual expenditures will depend upon numerous factors, including those described in “Risk factors,” “Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations,” “Business,” and elsewhere in this prospectus. Our management will retain broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds we receive from this offering, and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the net proceeds. Pending the use of the proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation instruments, including short-term and long-term interest-bearing instruments, investment-grade securities, and direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government. We cannot predict whether the proceeds invested will yield a favorable return. 70
