**Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.**

On January 28, 2026, Wealthfront Corporation (the "Company" or "Wealthfront") announced that it would be increasing the base client annual percentage yield ("APY") on cash in Wealthfront Cash Accounts by five basis points to a 3.30% APY effective on Friday, January 30, 2026. The announced increase is a result of the effective federal funds rate stabilizing at a higher rate within its target range for the first time in several years and the Company's decision to pass along this benefit to clients in the form of a higher APY.

Including this change, Wealthfront currently expects that its annualized cash management fee rate will be approximately 0.59% for the first quarter of fiscal year 2027. This includes an assumption, among others, that there is no change to the federal funds target range in the period.

As of January 26, 2026, Wealthfront's total platform assets were approximately $94.2 billion, with growth since December 31, 2025 driven by Investment Advisory.

The information furnished in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. The information in this Current Report shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date of this Current Report, regardless of any general incorporation language in the filing.

The Company announces material information to the public through filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the investor relations page on its website (ir.wealthfront.com), press releases, public conference calls, public webcasts, and its social media accounts on X, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn in order to achieve broad, non-exclusionary distribution of information to the public and for complying with its disclosure obligations under Regulation FD.

The content of the Company's websites and information that the Company may post on or provide to online and social media channels, including those mentioned above, and information that can be accessed through the Company's websites or these online and social media channels are not incorporated by reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K or in any other report or document the Company files with the SEC, and any references to the Company's websites or these online and social media channels are intended to be inactive textual references only.
