 mobile industry or in ensuring that our platform operates effectively with a range of operating systems, networks, devices, browsers, protocols, and standards. If we are unable to effectively anticipate and manage these risks, or if it is difficult for customers to access and use our platform, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects could be adversely affected. We use open-source software in our platform, which could subject us to litigation or other actions. We use open-source software on our platform. Using open source software can incur greater risk than using third-party commercial software due to the fact that open source licensors do not provide warranties, maintenance and support, or other contractual protections. Open source software may also present a heightened risk of security vulnerabilities, including due to the intentional acts of malicious actors who inject such vulnerabilities into the code, or to older versions of the software not remaining current with applicable updates and patches to address vulnerabilities or other bugs. In addition, if we were to combine our proprietary technology with open-source software in a certain manner under certain open-source licenses, we could be required to release the source code of our proprietary technology. While we take precautions to monitor our use of open-source software, if we inappropriately use or incorporate open-source software subject to certain types of open-source licenses that challenge the proprietary nature of our offerings, we may be subject to claims that we violated the license requirements, or be required to re-engineer such offerings, discontinue the sale of such offerings, or take other remedial actions. 55 Our use of artificial intelligence, including Gen AI and ML, gives rise to legal, business, and operational risks, which may result in diminished performance, regulatory scrutiny, social impacts, reputational harm, and liability arising from the use of this technology. We currently use AI, including Gen AI and ML, in our platform framework and our offerings, as well as new agentic AI and Gen AI developments, including in our Navan Cognition framework and future product interface enhancements such as Navan Go. The rapid evolution of AI, including Gen AI and ML, technologies will continue to require the application of significant resources to adopt, develop, test, integrate, and maintain the technologies included in our platform framework and our offerings in order to remain competitive, implement these technologies responsibly, and minimize unintended or harmful impacts. There are significant risks involved in adopting, developing, maintaining, and deploying these technologies, and there can be no assurance that the usage of such technologies will enhance our offerings or services or be beneficial to our business, including our
