Letter from Our Chair and Chief Executive Officer<sub>1</sub>

Letter from Our Chair and Chief Executive Officer <br> 

Dear fellow stockholders,

2025 was a landmark year defined by rapid product velocity at Robinhood. Our vision hasn't changed: we are building a global financial SuperApp. To achieve this, our three strategic arcs remain: become #1 for active traders; become #1 in wallet share for the next generation; and build the #1 global financial ecosystem.

On the active trader front, we've continued to cook up innovative product offerings, with the goal of making traders feel like they're at a disadvantage trading anywhere but Robinhood. At our second annual HOOD Summit, we unveiled: Robinhood Social; custom indicators and scanners; shorting; and more.

With over 12 billion event contracts traded in 2025, prediction markets have become our fastest-growing business line ever. This year, we added new categories to meet growing demand. We also entered a joint venture with Susquehanna International Group to acquire MIAXdx and build a CFTC-licensed exchange and clearinghouse. We believe we are just at the beginning of a prediction markets supercycle.

As the Great Wealth Transfer began to unfold, we helped our customers with an increasing share of their financial needs. Robinhood Retirement assets under custody doubled in 2025 to $26.5 billion across approximately 1.8 million funded accounts. We made Robinhood Gold even better, with subscribers reaching a record 4.2 million by the end of the year, and launched Robinhood Banking, which has already crossed $1.5 billion in deposits from nearly 100,000 Funded Customers. The Gold Card has more than 700,000 customers with over $10 billion in annualized spend.

On the wealth management front, we launched Robinhood Strategies—our digital advisory service—and scaled it to more than $1.5 billion in assets under management across more than 250,000 Funded Customers. We also completed our acquisition of TradePMR, a custodial services provider for registered investment advisors.

Finally, we strengthened our foundation for a global financial ecosystem by enhancing our offerings in existing markets and entering new ones. In the U.K., we launched a stocks and shares ISA. We launched Stock Tokens to every country in the EU/EEA, and now offer more than 2,000 tokens that give European customers exposure to U.S. stocks and equities. We continued our expansion into Asia with agreements to acquire a brokerage and crypto firm in Indonesia. We also completed the acquisition of Bitstamp to serve institutional and retail customers across the EU, U.K., U.S. and Asia.

In 2026, we will further advance our vision across our three strategic arcs and double down on the two disruptive technologies reshaping the industry: AI and crypto.

For active traders, we will continue to invest in prediction markets as the supercycle continues. We'll roll out our AI-powered investing assistant, Cortex, across the Robinhood app and Robinhood Legend, with the goal of building a trading super-assistant. We want Legend to become to traders what Cursor is to software engineers.

Already in 2026, we've unveiled new products to support multigenerational wealth building. We announced a Family Hub, custodial accounts, and trust accounts. We also unveiled enhancements to Robinhood Strategies, introduced early dividends, and unveiled the new Platinum Card, a premium credit card plated with real platinum, designed for those who want elevated benefits.

To build the number one global financial ecosystem, we will seize the tokenization opportunity, which will entail two things: 24/7 tradable, public company stock tokens; and private company stock tokens. We'll launch the Robinhood Chain, which is already live in testnet, and improve the Robinhood Wallet. We will more closely align our DeFi and TradFi products to deliver the best of both worlds to our customers. You'll also see us continue to push into new geographies, with several new international markets coming later this year.

Finally, we believe that opening up private markets will resolve one of the greatest inequities in capital markets today. Robinhood Ventures Fund I was recently listed on the NYSE, and we are excited for what's ahead as we increase accessibility to private markets for our customers.

Thank you for investing in Robinhood. We look forward to your feedback at our upcoming annual meeting of stockholders.

Onward,

Highlights <br> 

Robinhood is on a mission to democratize finance for all. We use technology to provide access to the financial system in a way that is simple and convenient for our customers. We believe the financial system should be built to work for everyone. That's why we create products that let our customers start investing at their own pace, on their own terms. We believe investing should be familiar and welcoming, with a simple design and an intuitive interface, so that customers are empowered to achieve their goals. We started with a revolutionary, bold brand and design in the Robinhood app which makes investing approachable for millions. Over the last decade, we have disrupted and changed the industry, becoming the first U.S. retail broker to offer commission-free stock trading with no account minimums, which was subsequently adopted by the rest of the industry. In recent years, we have continued to build relationships with our customers by introducing new products and diversifying our services that further expand access to the financial system, including focusing on products and tools for more seasoned investors. Through these efforts, we believe we have made investing culturally relevant and understandable, and that our platforms enable our customers to become long-term investors and take greater control of their finances.

**2025 Executive Compensation Program Overview**

Robinhood's executive compensation program is designed to focus our executive officers on the long-term performance of the Company and to create significant stockholder alignment. We believe that equity awards align the interests of our executive officers with our stockholders, provide our executive officers with incentives linked to long-term performance, and foster an ownership mentality. The long-term vesting features of our equity awards serve an important retentive function that reflects the value we place on management longevity. The People and Compensation Committee (the "People Committee") gives no single element in our executive compensation program any fixed weight, but rather each executive's compensation level and the mix of compensation elements reflect the People Committee's business judgment with respect to the above factors and consideration of alignment with stockholder interests.

**2025 Executive Compensation Highlights**

• **No change to CEO compensation.** Our CEO continues to receive a modest base salary, did not participate in our annual cash incentive program, and did not receive any new equity grants in 2025.

• **Changed annual incentive bonus measures.** The People Committee shifted the 2025 cash incentive plan's measures to include International Net Funded Accounts in addition to total net revenues, adjusted net income, Net Deposits, and Gold Subscriber growth.

• **Granted equity awards during our annual refresh cycle to non-CEO NEOs.** The People Committee granted time-based equity awards to our non-CEO named executive officers ("NEOs") that vest quarterly over four years. The target value of these awards was $12 million for Mr. Quirk, $10 million for Mr. Gallagher, $4.5 million for Mr. Pinner, and $12 million for Mr. Warnick.

| **18** | **Robinhood**<br>Questions and Answers about Our Proxy Materials and the Annual Meeting |

**Why am I receiving these materials?**

Because you are a stockholder of Robinhood Markets, Inc. ("Robinhood," the "Company," "we," or "us").

As a Robinhood stockholder as of the close of business on April 8, 2026, you are invited to attend the annual meeting, and you are entitled to (and please do) vote your shares on the proposals described in this proxy statement. Robinhood's proxy materials include this proxy statement and our 2025 Annual Report. Robinhood's Board is providing these proxy materials to you in connection with Robinhood's 2026 annual meeting of stockholders, which will take place on June 2, 2026. The date of this proxy statement is April 22, 2026.

Our proxy materials are also available online at **<u>www.proxydocs.com/HOOD</u>**.

**Why did I receive a notice regarding the internet availability of proxy materials instead of a full set of proxy materials? Can I elect to receive Robinhood stockholder communications electronically rather than through the mail?**

We are pleased to take advantage of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules that allow us to furnish proxy materials to our stockholders over the internet. As a result, on or around April 22, 2026, we will be mailing to most of our stockholders a brief notice of internet availability of proxy materials (the "Notice of Internet Availability") instead of a paper copy of the proxy materials. The Notice of Internet Availability contains instructions on how to access those documents over the internet and how to submit your proxy via the internet. This approach conserves natural resources and reduces our distribution costs, while providing a timely and convenient method of accessing the materials and voting. As a result, most stockholders will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless they request them. If you would like to receive a paper or email copy of the Company's proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials in the Notice of Internet Availability. The Notice of Internet Availability is not itself a proxy card and should not be returned with voting instructions.

If you received your annual meeting materials by mail you may (and we encourage you to) sign up to receive future stockholder communications via email. With electronic delivery, we will notify you via email as soon as the annual report and the proxy statement are available on the internet, and you will be able to review those materials and submit your stockholder vote online. Your electronic delivery enrollment will generally be effective until you cancel it. To sign up for electronic delivery please contact the broker, bank, or other nominee that holds shares on your behalf.

**What information is contained in Robinhood's proxy materials?**

This proxy statement includes a letter to stockholders from our Chair and CEO and describes the proposals to be voted on at the annual meeting, the voting process, the compensation of our directors and NEOs, and other required information.

Robinhood's 2025 Annual Report includes our most recent SEC Form 10-K, as amended, with our audited financial statements, management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, risk factors, and other required information.

If you received the Notice of Internet Availability, voting instructions can be found in the Notice of Internet Availability. If you received a paper copy of these materials, the mailing also included an accompanying proxy card or voting instruction form for the annual meeting.

**What proposals will be voted on at the annual meeting?**

Stockholders will vote on three proposals at the annual meeting:

• Election to the Board of the ten director nominees named in this proxy statement (Proposal 1);

• Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company's named executive officers (Proposal 2); and

• Ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 (Proposal 3).

We will also consider any other business that properly comes before the annual meeting and any adjournment or postponement thereof.

**How does the Board recommend I vote on these proposals and what vote is required to approve each of the proposals?**

Proposal 1: Election to the Board of each of the ten director nominees named in this proxy statement.

• Robinhood's Board recommends that you vote your shares "FOR" each of the director nominees.

• Each nominee will be elected if he or she receives a majority of votes cast, meaning that the number of votes cast "FOR" a director's election exceeds 50% of the number of votes cast with respect to that director's election.

Proposal 2: Approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company's named executive officers.

• Robinhood's Board recommends that you vote your shares "FOR" the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of the Company's NEOs.

• The proposal will be approved, on an advisory basis, if a majority of votes cast by stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting and entitled to vote on this proposal are in favor of this proposal (a majority of votes cast being the number of votes cast "FOR" this proposal exceeds 50% of the number of votes cast with respect to this proposal).

Proposal 3: Ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

• Robinhood's Board recommends that you vote your shares "FOR".

• The appointment of Ernst & Young LLP will be ratified if a majority of votes cast by stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting and entitled to vote on this proposal are in favor of this proposal (a majority of votes cast being the number of votes cast "FOR" this proposal exceeds 50% of the number of votes cast with respect to this proposal).

**Who is entitled to vote?**

At the close of business on April 8, 2026, 791,086,666 shares of Class A common stock and 109,745,620 shares of Class B common stock were outstanding and entitled to vote. Stockholders of record as of the close of business on April 8, 2026, the record date, are entitled to notice of and to vote at the annual meeting.

The holders of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock vote together as a single class, unless otherwise required by our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (our "Charter") or applicable law. We have no other class of stock outstanding.

**What shares can I vote?**

You may vote all shares of Robinhood common stock owned by you as of the close of business on the record date of April 8, 2026, with respect to each director standing for election, Proposal 2, and Proposal 3.

• Holders of our Class A common stock may cast one vote per share of Class A common stock held as of the close of business on the record date. Class A common stock is the class of our stock that is traded on Nasdaq.

• Holders of our Class B common stock may cast ten votes per share of Class B common stock held as of the close of business on the record date. Class B common stock is held exclusively by Mr. Tenev and Mr. Bhatt (together, the "Co-Founders") and their related entities.

A list of stockholders of record entitled to vote at the annual meeting will be available for examination by any stockholder during ordinary business hours at Robinhood's offices at 85 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California 94025 for a period of at least 10 days ending on the day before the annual meeting.

| **20** | **Robinhood**<br>Questions and Answers about Our Proxy Materials and the Annual Meeting |

---

**What is the difference between a "beneficial owner" and a "stockholder of record"?**

Whether you are a "beneficial owner" or a "stockholder of record" depends on how you hold your shares:

• **Beneficial owners.** Most stockholders of Robinhood hold their shares through a broker, bank, or other nominee (that is, in "street name") rather than directly in their own names. If you hold shares in street name, you are a "beneficial owner" of those shares and a copy of our proxy materials, together with a voting instruction form, will be made available to you by your broker, bank or other nominee. Typically you will receive an email from your broker's proxy service provider with a link to the materials or you will receive a paper notice regarding the availability of proxy materials at an internet page specified on the notice (such email or notice is called your "Notice of Internet Availability").

• **Stockholders of record.** If you hold shares directly in your name with our stock transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, you are considered the "stockholder of record" with respect to those shares, and a copy of our proxy materials, together with a proxy card, will be made available to you by Robinhood. Typically you will receive an email from **<u>RobinhoodMarketsInc@proxypush.com</u>** with a link to the materials or a Notice of Internet Availability.

**Why is the annual meeting being held virtually in 2026?** 

We are holding a virtual annual meeting in order to provide our stockholders the opportunity to access and experience the meeting over the internet in a consistent and convenient manner across the globe. Conducting the meeting virtually may also reduce the environmental impact associated with hosting an in-person meeting. Because this is a virtual-only meeting, you will not be able to attend the annual meeting physically in person.

**Can I attend the virtual annual meeting? How do I register?**

**Voting Participants.** To attend the virtual annual meeting online as a voting participant, you must register in advance with the notice you received regarding the meeting by going to **<u>www.proxydocs.com/HOOD</u>**. To register at **<u>www.proxydocs.com/HOOD</u>**, you will need the unique control number that appears on your Notice of Internet Availability (or your proxy card or voting instruction form). If you do not have (or cannot find) your control number, you should follow the instructions in the notice you received regarding the meeting or reach out to your broker to help facilitate. If you are a beneficial owner, you will also need to provide the name of the broker, bank, or other nominee at which you hold our shares, as well as the name on your account, as part of the registration process.

Upon completing your registration, you will receive further instructions via email, including a unique link that will allow you to access the meeting online as a voting participant. Please be sure to follow the instructions in that email. If you do not comply with the registration procedures outlined above, you will not be admitted to the annual meeting as a voting participant. Stockholders are advised to register as far in advance as possible. Registration will remain open until the meeting begins.

If you are a beneficial owner, in order to register as a voting participant you might also need to obtain a Legal Proxy from your broker, bank, or other nominee and to submit a copy in advance of the meeting. Further instructions will be provided to you as part of your registration process. A "Legal Proxy" authorizes you to vote the shares on behalf of such broker or bank. Obtaining a Legal Proxy could take two weeks or more by mail, though many providers now support faster electronic versions. See the next question for more information about Legal Proxies.

**General Public/Guests.** The meeting is open to the public and may be viewed live online as a guest. Go to **<u>www.proxydocs.com/HOOD</u>** to register as a guest. (Guest registration takes only a minute and will be open until the meeting begins.) Upon registering, you will receive further instructions via email, including a unique link that will allow you to access the meeting online. Guests will be in view-only mode and will not be able to vote or participate in the meeting. Therefore, if you hold shares and plan to attend as a guest, please vote your shares in advance as described below so that your vote will be counted at the annual meeting.

Online access to the webcast will open approximately 15 minutes prior to the start of the meeting so that you may log in and test the computer audio system. Attendance at the annual meeting as a participant or as a guest is subject to capacity limits set by the virtual platform provider. We expect the platform will be able to accommodate at least 2,500 simultaneous viewers. (Anyone who is not logged into the meeting if/when the capacity limit is reached will not be able to watch or vote live at the meeting.)

| Questions and Answers about Our Proxy Materials and the Annual Meeting | **21** |

---

If you have difficulty registering for the annual meeting, please check out the FAQs posted on the registration page, or email a request to: **<u>DSMsupport@mediantonline.com</u>**.

We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the annual meeting. Starting one hour prior to the meeting, if you encounter any difficulties accessing the online meeting platform, including any difficulties voting, you may call the technical support number that will be included in your instructional email.

Any recording of the annual meeting is prohibited; however, a replay of the annual meeting will be available for viewing for at least two weeks following the meeting on our Investor Relations website at **<u>investors.robinhood.com</u>**.

**How can I vote my shares personally live online at the annual meeting?**

If you hold shares as the stockholder of record, you have the right to vote those shares personally live at the virtual annual meeting. If you choose to do so, you can vote using the online ballot provided at the meeting. In order to be admitted to the online meeting as a voting participant, however, you must register in advance as described immediately above. **Even if you plan to attend the annual meeting, we recommend that you vote your shares in advance (as described in the next question below) so that your vote will be counted in case you later decide not to attend the annual meeting**.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you cannot vote your shares personally live at the annual meeting unless you (a) obtain a "Legal Proxy" from the broker, bank, or other nominee that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote the shares at the meeting using the online ballot provided at the meeting and (b) register in advance as described in the previous question.

Most beneficial owners will be able to complete this process quickly as described in the previous question by using the unique "control number" appearing on their Notice of Internet Availability or elsewhere in their proxy materials. Inputting your control number as part of the registration process causes a Legal Proxy to be issued automatically in the background. If you are a beneficial owner and were not assigned a control number, you might need to provide a formal Legal Proxy to us as part of the advance registration procedure. Check with the broker or bank at which you hold shares to learn how to obtain a Legal Proxy. (Often you can request a Legal Proxy on the online early voting website that's linked from your Notice of Internet Availability. On that early voting site, check the box "I want to attend the meeting" (or similar words) and allow at least two weeks to receive the Legal Proxy by mail and another week to submit it to complete your registration for the meeting.) If you have questions about this process, please contact the broker, bank, or other nominee through which you hold shares.

**How can I vote my shares in advance without attending the annual meeting?**

You may direct how your shares are voted in advance (and without any need to attend the annual meeting) in one of the following ways:

• **Internet.** You can vote your shares via the internet by following the instructions on the website identified on your Notice of Internet Availability, proxy card, or voting instruction form.

• **Telephone.** Telephone voting is available only if you received printed proxy materials. You can vote your shares by telephone if you call the phone voting number appearing on your proxy card or voting instruction form.

• **Mail.** You can vote by mail only if you received printed proxy materials. You can vote your shares via mail by marking, dating, signing, and returning in the enclosed envelope any proxy card or voting instruction form you received.

The granting of proxies electronically is allowed by Section 212(c)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

**Can I watch the meeting later?**

Yes. A replay of the annual meeting will be available on our investor relations website at **<u>investors.robinhood.com</u>**. The recording will be posted within 24 hours after the meeting ends and will be available to view for at least two weeks.

| **22** | **Robinhood**<br>Questions and Answers about Our Proxy Materials and the Annual Meeting |

---

**How can I submit questions and upvote questions for management to answer?**

Stockholders may submit and upvote questions to the Company ahead of the meeting using the Q&A platform developed by Say. You may visit **<u>app.saytechnologies.com/robinhood-2026-annual</u>** to submit and upvote questions (or you may do so directly in your brokerage's investing application, if supported). The Q&A platform will be open to submit and upvote questions starting May 22, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Pacific time. Stockholders will be able to submit and upvote questions until June 1, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Pacific time. We will address a selection of the most upvoted questions during the meeting.

Our intent is to answer as many stockholder-submitted questions as time permits. We may combine or group together substantially similar questions to avoid repetition. We reserve the right to edit profanity or other inappropriate language, as well as exclude questions that are not pertinent to meeting matters or Company business.

**What does it mean if I receive more than one set of proxy materials?**

If your shares are registered differently or are held in more than one account, you will receive a Notice of Internet Availability (or in some cases a set of proxy materials) for each account. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, please submit your proxy or voting instructions for each account for which you have received a notice or set of proxy materials.

**What is the deadline for voting my shares if I do not attend the annual meeting?**

If you are a stockholder of record, your proxy must be received by telephone or the internet before the meeting is scheduled to begin in order for your shares to be voted. If you are a stockholder of record, you also have the option of completing, signing, dating, and returning the proxy card enclosed with the proxy materials so that it is received by 5:00 p.m. Pacific time on June 1, 2026, which is the day before the meeting, in order for your shares to be voted. If you are a beneficial owner of shares, please comply with the deadlines included in the voting instructions provided by the broker, bank, or other nominee that holds your shares.

**How many shares must be present or represented to conduct business at the annual meeting?**

Business may be conducted at the annual meeting only if a quorum is present or represented at the meeting, which means that holders of stock representing a majority of the voting power of all shares of stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the annual meeting must be present in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting. Both abstentions and broker non-votes are counted to determine whether a quorum is present. See "What effect do abstentions and broker non-votes have on the proposals?" below for more information.

**What if a quorum is not present at the meeting?**

If a quorum is not present at the scheduled time of the annual meeting, the chair of the annual meeting is authorized by our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "Bylaws") to adjourn the meeting, from time to time, until a quorum is present or represented, to reconvene at the same or some other place.

**What effect do abstentions and broker non-votes have on the proposals?**

**Abstentions.** Abstentions will not be counted as votes cast and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome of any proposal at the annual meeting. An "abstention" occurs on a matter when a stockholder returns a proxy card marked "abstain" (or otherwise submits a voting instruction to abstain) as to such matter. (Merely leaving a proposal blank on the proxy card does not result in an abstention.) Abstentions will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the annual meeting.

**Broker Non-Votes.** Broker non-votes will not be counted as votes cast and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on each of the non-routine items, although they will count for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. A broker is entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on routine matters (such as ratifying the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP), without instructions from the beneficial owner of those shares. On the other hand, a broker is not entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on non-routine items (such as the election of directors and the Say-on-Pay vote) absent instructions from the beneficial owners of such shares. Consequently, if you hold shares in street name and you do not submit any voting instructions, your broker may exercise its discretion to vote your shares on the proposal to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP but will not vote your shares with respect to the election of directors or the Say-on-Pay vote. If this occurs, your shares will be voted in the manner directed by your broker on the proposal to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP but will constitute "broker non-votes" with respect to the election of directors and the Say-on-Pay vote.

| Questions and Answers about Our Proxy Materials and the Annual Meeting | **23** |

---

**How will my shares be voted if I do not provide specific voting instructions in the proxy card or voting instruction form that I submit?**

If you submit a signed proxy card or voting instruction form without giving specific voting instructions on one or more matters listed in the notice for the meeting, your shares will be voted as recommended by our Board on such matters, and as the proxyholders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote at the annual meeting.

**Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?**

You may change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time before your proxy is voted at the annual meeting. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote or revoke your proxy by: (1) delivering to Robinhood (Attention: Corporate Secretary, at 85 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California 94025) a written notice of revocation of your proxy; (2) submitting an authorized proxy bearing a later date using one of the alternatives described above under "How can I vote my shares in advance without attending the annual meeting?"; or (3) attending the annual meeting and voting in person. Attendance at the annual meeting in and of itself, without voting in person at the annual meeting, will not cause your previously granted proxy to be revoked. For shares you hold in street name, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your broker, bank, or other nominee or by registering for the virtual meeting and voting in the meeting.

**What happens if additional matters are presented at the annual meeting?**

If you grant a proxy, the persons named as proxyholders, Shiv Verma and Daniel Gallagher, will each have the discretion to vote your shares on any additional matters properly presented for a vote at the annual meeting.

Other than the matters and proposals described in this proxy statement, we have not received valid notice of any other business to be acted upon at the annual meeting.

**Who will count the votes?**

A representative of Mediant Communications Inc. will tabulate the votes and act as the Inspector of Election.

**Where can I find the voting results of the annual meeting?**

Robinhood will report voting results by filing with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days following the date of the annual meeting. If final voting results are not known when such report is filed, they will be announced in an amendment to such report within four business days after the final results become known.

**Who will bear the cost of soliciting votes for the annual meeting?**

Robinhood will bear the costs of the solicitation of proxies. These costs include the expense of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing, and distributing proxy solicitation materials for the annual meeting and reimbursements paid to brokerage firms and others for related expenses in forwarding materials to beneficial owners. We may conduct further solicitation personally, telephonically, over the internet, or by facsimile through our officers, directors, and employees, none of whom will receive additional compensation for assisting with the solicitation. We might incur other expenses in connection with the solicitation of proxies for the annual meeting.

**May I propose actions for consideration at next year's annual meeting or nominate individuals to serve as directors?**

Yes. The following requirements apply to stockholder proposals and director nominations for the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders.

**Requirements for Stockholder Proposals to be Considered for Inclusion in Proxy Materials:**

Stockholders interested in submitting a proposal for inclusion in the proxy materials we distribute for the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders may do so by following the procedures prescribed in Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). To be eligible for inclusion, stockholder proposals must be received by us no later than December 23, 2026, and must comply with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials. If we change the date of the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders by more than 30 days from the anniversary of this year's meeting, stockholder proposals must be received a reasonable time before we begin to print and mail our proxy materials for the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders. Proposals should be sent to our Corporate Secretary at 85 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California 94025.

**Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations Not Intended for Inclusion in Proxy Materials:**

Stockholders who wish to nominate persons for election to the Board at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders or who wish to present a proposal at the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, but who do not intend for such nomination or proposal to be included in the proxy materials distributed by us for such meeting, must deliver written notice of the nomination or proposal to the Corporate Secretary at the above address no earlier than February 2, 2027, and no later than March 4, 2027 (provided, however, that if the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders is held earlier than May 3, 2027, or later than August 1, 2027, nominations and proposals must be delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the date of such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to the date of such annual meeting or, if the first public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is less than 100 days prior to the date of such annual meeting, the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Company). The stockholder's written notice must include certain information concerning the stockholder and each nominee and proposal, as specified in Section 1.14 of the Company's Bylaws, and must comply with the other requirements specified in the Bylaws. In addition to satisfying the requirements under the Company's Bylaws, to comply with the universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company's nominees must also provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than April 3, 2027.

In addition, stockholders may recommend director candidates for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the "NomGov Committee") by following the procedures set forth under "Stockholder Recommendations for Director Nominations" on page [44](#if1b52c7b1ffd40b2aff1c6ee90275ea7_103) of this proxy statement.

| <br>Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements | **25** |

---

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements <br> 

This proxy statement contains forward-looking statements (as such phrase is used in the federal securities laws), which involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or our future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as "believe," "may," "will," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "could," "intend," "target," "project," "contemplate," "estimate," "predict," "potential," or "continue" or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions that concern our expectations, strategy, plans, or intentions. This proxy statement includes, among others, forward-looking statements relating to our strategic and operational plans, financial outcomes, new product launches, and stockholder engagement plans.

Our forward-looking statements are subject to a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors that may cause our actual future results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from any future results expressed or implied in this proxy statement. Reported results should not be considered an indication of future performance. Factors that contribute to the uncertain nature of our forward-looking statements include, among others: our rapid and continuing expansion, including continuing to introduce new products and services on our platforms as well as geographic expansion; the difficulty of managing our business effectively, including the size of our workforce, and the risk of declining or negative growth; the fluctuations in our financial results and key metrics from quarter to quarter; our reliance on transaction-based revenue, including payment for order flow ("PFOF"), the risk of new regulation or bans on PFOF and similar practices, and the addition of our new fee-based model for cryptocurrency; our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and rapidly changing interest rate environments; the difficulty of raising additional capital (to provide liquidity needs and support business growth and objectives) on reasonable terms, if at all; the need to maintain capital levels required by regulators and self-regulatory organizations; the risk that we might mishandle the cash, securities, and cryptocurrencies we hold on behalf of customers, and our exposure to liability for processing, operational, or technical errors in clearing functions; the impact of negative publicity on our brand and reputation; the risk that changes in business, economic, or political conditions that impact the global financial markets, or a systemic market event, might harm our business; our dependence on key employees and a skilled workforce; the fact that we do not wholly own or operationally control Rothera, our joint venture with SIG, and its subsidiaries; operational and regulatory risks and expenditures prior to and following closing of our acquisitions and investments; the difficulty of complying with an extensive, complex, and changing regulatory environment, the risk of monetary and other penalties for noncompliance and the need to adjust our business model in response to new or modified laws and regulations; the possibility of adverse developments in pending litigation and regulatory investigations; the risk that the outcome of currently ongoing and potential future regulatory enforcement actions and litigation, as well as potential changes in federal or state law, could immediately or subsequently prevent us from offering, or continuing to offer, event contracts; the effects of competition; our need to innovate and acquire or invest in new products, services, technologies and geographies in order to attract and retain customers and deepen their engagement with us in order to maintain growth; our reliance on third parties to perform some key functions and the risk that processing, operational or technological failures could impair the availability or stability of our platforms; the risk of cybersecurity incidents, theft, data breaches, and other online attacks; the difficulty of processing customer data in compliance with privacy laws; our need as a regulated financial services company to develop and maintain effective compliance and risk management infrastructures; the risks associated with incorporating artificial intelligence ("AI") technologies into some of our products and processes; the regulation, litigation, contractual, operational, and reputational risks associated with our introduction of products such as Robinhood Stock Tokens in the EEA and our staking services offered in the U.S., and the risk that substantial future sales of Class A common stock in the public market, or the perception that they may occur, could cause the price of our stock to fall.

Because some of these risks and uncertainties cannot be predicted or quantified and some are beyond our control, you should not rely on our forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. More information about potential risks and uncertainties that could affect our business and financial results is included in the section of our 2025 Form 10-K titled "Risk Factors" and our other filings with the SEC, which are available on the SEC's web site at **<u>www.sec.gov</u>**. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment; new risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks nor identify all uncertainties. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements might not be achieved and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

Except as otherwise noted, all forward-looking statements are made as of the date we file this proxy statement and are based on information and estimates available to us at this time. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, performance, or achievements. Except as required by law, Robinhood assumes no obligation to update any of the statements in this proxy statement whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances, or otherwise. You should read this proxy statement with the understanding that our actual future results, performance, events, and circumstances might be materially different from what we expect.

![02 PRO013634_icon_proposal.jpg](hood-20260422_g61.jpg)<br>Election of Directors<br>

Our business and affairs are managed with oversight from our Board. Our Board currently consists of ten directors, each of whom is nominated for re-election at the annual meeting.

| Proposal 1 — Election of Directors | **29** |

---

If re-elected, each Nominee will serve as a director until our 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, or removal from office.

All Nominees have consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serving as directors if elected. If any Nominee is unable to serve or for good cause will not serve as a director at the time of the annual meeting, the persons who are designated as proxies intend to vote, in their discretion, for such other persons, if any, as may be designated by the Board. As of the date of this proxy statement, the Board has no reason to believe that any of the persons named above will be unable or unwilling to stand as a nominee or to serve as a director if elected.

The criteria set forth below, among others identified by the Board from time to time, reflect the traits, characteristics, abilities, and experience that the Board looks for in determining candidates for election to the Board. We believe that each Nominee satisfies the criteria below and possesses:

• the highest ethical character and alignment with the values of the Company;

• relevant expertise and experience, and ability to offer advice and guidance to the CEO and senior management based on that expertise and experience;

• the ability and willingness to devote sufficient time and energy to carrying out director duties effectively; and

• sound business judgment.

The Board will consider recommendations from other directors, stockholders, management, search firms, and others, as it deems appropriate.

**Board Leadership Policy**

The Board is committed to fostering a culture of integrity, inclusion, dignity, and mutual respect and believes in reflecting, in its composition, the wide diversity of views of the Company's stockholders, employees, and customers. The Board seeks to combine the skills and experience of its long-standing Board members with the fresh perspectives, insights, skills, and experiences of new members from different backgrounds. It is the policy of the Board that when searching for director nominees, the NomGov Committee will recommend director nominees with individual attributes that contribute to the total diversity of viewpoints, experience, and expertise represented on the Board. The Board and NomGov Committee consider this policy annually during their self-assessment and when nominating directors for election to the Board, and the NomGov Committee believes that this policy is effective.

**Director Independence**

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that a majority of our directors shall be "independent" as that term is defined by the Nasdaq listing standards, which include the requirement that an independent director must be free of any relationships which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of such director's independent judgment and independence from management in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

Our Board has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Based on information provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment, and affiliations, as well as information otherwise obtained by or available to us, our Board has determined that each of Mr. Hegeman, Ms. Loop, Mr. Malka, Mr. Payne, Mr. Rubinstein, Ms. Segal, Ms. Treseder, and Mr. Zoellick does not have any relationships that would interfere with the exercise of his or her independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is "independent" as that term is defined under Nasdaq listing standards. The Board has also determined, as further described below, that each of these directors is independent under applicable SEC rules and Nasdaq listing standards for service on the various committees of the Board on which they currently or previously served. Mr. Tenev and Mr. Bhatt are not independent (as a result of their current or prior employment with the Company).

In making these determinations regarding the independence of our directors, the Board considered (1) any transactions involving them described in the section below titled "Transactions with Related Persons," (2) other transactions or relationships between the Company, on the one hand, and other companies at which they serve or served as an executive officer or in another leadership role or held a material ownership interest, on the other hand (for which in all cases the amount involved did not exceed 5% of the recipient entity's annual gross revenue), and (3) the matters described below (none of which involved professional, advisory, or consulting services). In each case, the Board affirmatively determined that any such arrangements, transactions, or relationships did not, and would not, interfere with the director's exercise of independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities as a director:

• the relationship between Mr. Malka and entities associated with Ribbit Capital, which held more than 5% of the Company's outstanding common stock at the time of the IPO until it reported that it held 5% or less of the Company's outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2024, including the transactions involving entities associated with Ribbit Capital described in the section below titled "Transactions with Related Persons"; and

• transactions in the ordinary course of business involving aggregate payments greater than $10,000 to companies for which the following directors served as a non-employee director or executive officer, as applicable, at the time of payment: Mr. Hegeman, Mr. Malka, Mr. Payne, and Mr. Rubinstein. The amount involved in each of these transactions did not exceed 5% of the recipient entity's annual gross revenue.

| Proposal 1 — Election of Directors | **43** |

---

**Procedures if a Nominee is Not Re-Elected**

All of our director nominees are currently incumbent directors. Our Bylaws provide that if any incumbent director nominee is not re-elected (i.e., the number of votes cast "FOR" such director's election does not exceed 50% of the number of votes cast with respect to such director's election) and no successor is elected at the meeting, that incumbent director must promptly tender his or her irrevocable resignation to the Board, with such resignation to be effective if and when it is accepted by the Board.

In that case, our Bylaws provide that the NomGov Committee will make a recommendation to the Board as to whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation, or whether other action should be taken, and that the Board shall act on the tendered resignation, taking into account the NomGov Committee's recommendation. The NomGov Committee in making its recommendation, and the Board in making its decision, may each consider any factors or other information that it considers appropriate and relevant. The director who tenders his or her irrevocable resignation will not participate in the recommendation of the NomGov Committee or the decision of the Board with respect to his or her irrevocable resignation. If such incumbent director's irrevocable resignation is not accepted by the Board, such director will continue to serve until the next annual meeting and until his or her successor is duly elected, or his or her earlier resignation or removal.

If a director's irrevocable resignation is accepted by the Board pursuant to the Bylaws, then the Board, in its sole discretion, may fill any resulting vacancy or may decrease the size of the Board.

**Consideration of Director Candidates**

The NomGov Committee continues to actively engage in searching for, identifying, evaluating, and assisting in recruiting a diverse pool of individuals qualified to become Board members.

In considering director candidates, whether submitted by management, current Board members, stockholders, or other persons, the NomGov Committee will consider the qualifications and suitability of the candidate.

|:---|:---|
| **44** | **Robinhood**<br>Proposal 1 — Election of Directors |

---

The NomGov Committee believes that the minimum qualifications for service as a director of the Company are that a nominee possess and exhibit:

• highest ethical character and alignment with the values of the Company;

• relevant expertise and experience, and ability to offer advice and guidance to the CEO and senior management based on that expertise and experience;

• the ability and willingness to devote sufficient time and energy to carrying out director duties effectively; and

• sound business judgment.

The NomGov Committee also takes into account the satisfaction of any independence requirements imposed by any applicable laws, regulations, or rules and the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines.

In connection with the NomGov Committee's consideration of a potential director candidate, the NomGov Committee may also collect and review publicly available information regarding the person to assess the suitability of the candidate and determine whether the person should be considered further. If the NomGov Committee determines that the candidate warrants further consideration, the chair or another member of the NomGov Committee may contact the candidate. Generally, if the candidate expresses a willingness to be considered and to serve on the Board, the NomGov Committee may request information from the candidate, review his or her accomplishments and qualifications, and conduct one or more interviews with the candidate and members of the NomGov Committee or other Board members. The NomGov Committee may consider all this information in light of information regarding other candidates that the NomGov Committee is evaluating for membership on the Board. In certain instances, NomGov Committee members or other Board members may contact one or more references provided by the candidate or may contact other members of the business community or other persons that may have firsthand knowledge of the candidate's accomplishments.

**Stockholder Recommendations for Director Nominations**

The NomGov Committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders. With regard to a candidate recommended by a stockholder, the NomGov Committee may also consider the number of shares held by the recommending stockholder and the length of time that such shares have been held.

To have a candidate considered by the NomGov Committee, a stockholder must submit the recommendation in writing and must include the following information:

• The name of the stockholder and evidence of the stockholder's ownership of Company stock, including the number of shares owned and the length of time of ownership; and

• The name of the candidate, the candidate's resume or a listing of his or her qualifications to be a director of the Company, and the candidate's consent to be named as a director if selected by the NomGov Committee and nominated by the Board.

The NomGov Committee may require additional information as it deems reasonably required to determine the eligibility of the recommended director candidate to serve as a member of the Board.

The stockholder recommendation and information described above must be sent to the chair of the NomGov Committee in care of the Corporate Secretary at Robinhood Markets, Inc., 85 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California 94025. For a candidate to be considered by the NomGov Committee for nomination to the Board at an upcoming annual meeting, a stockholder recommendation must be received by the Corporate Secretary not less than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the Company's most recent annual meeting of stockholders.

The NomGov Committee's evaluation process does not vary based on the source of a recommendation of a candidate, although, as stated above, in the case of a candidate recommended by a stockholder, the Board may take into consideration the number of shares held by the recommending stockholder and the length of time that such shares have been held.

Corporate Governance <br> 

Our Charter, which provides for dual class stock (as described below) and a classified board that automatically sunset in 2024, was approved in March 2021 by the pre-IPO Board and by pre-IPO stockholders and took effect immediately prior to the completion of the IPO on August 2, 2021. Our classified board automatically sunset at the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders and our dual class stock will automatically sunset 15 years after the IPO.

Stockholder Structure

**Dual Class Stock** 

Our Charter provides for two classes of voting common stock: Class A with one vote per share and Class B with ten votes per share. Class A is publicly traded on Nasdaq; Class B is privately held by our Co-Founders and their related entities (including estate planning vehicles). The holders of our Class A shares and Class B shares vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote, unless otherwise required by our Charter or applicable law. They will vote together as a single class on all proposals at the annual meeting. Class B shares are convertible into Class A shares on a one-for-one basis, and, if not earlier converted, all Class B shares will automatically convert into Class A shares on August 2, 2036, which is the fifteenth anniversary of our IPO closing date. For further information regarding our classes of stock, see "Description of Robinhood Securities Registered Under Section 12 of the Exchange Act" included as an exhibit to our 2025 Form 10-K.

**Founders' Voting Agreement** 

Our Co-Founders and some of their related entities have entered into a voting agreement, as described in more detail under "Other Matters—Voting Agreements" elsewhere in this proxy statement. The parties to that agreement have agreed, among other things, (a) to vote all of their shares of common stock in favor of the election of each Co-Founder to, and against the removal of each Co-Founder from, our Board and (b) to vote together in the election of other directors generally, subject to deferring to the decision of the NomGov Committee in the event of any disagreement between the Co-Founders. As of April 8, 2026, parties to this agreement control approximately 58% of the total outstanding voting power of our common stock. Therefore, the Co-Founders will be able to determine the outcome of the election of directors and, if the Co-Founders vote together on other matters, to determine the outcome of all other matters submitted to a vote at the annual meeting.

**Class B Exchange Agreements**

In connection with the IPO, we entered into two separate equity exchange right agreements with our Co-Founders and certain of their respective related entities, which became effective immediately following the effectiveness of the filing of our Charter. Pursuant to the equity exchange right agreements, each of our Co-Founders has a continuing right (an "Equity Exchange Right") but not an obligation to require us to exchange, for shares of Class B common stock, any shares of Class A common stock received by him upon the vesting and settlement of restricted stock units ("RSUs"). The Equity Exchange Rights apply only to RSUs granted to our Co-Founders prior to the closing of our IPO on August 2, 2021. To date, Mr. Tenev has utilized his Equity Exchange Rights to exchange 5,434,198 shares of Class A common stock received by him upon the vesting and settlement of applicable RSUs for shares of Class B common stock; Mr. Bhatt has not utilized any Equity Exchange Rights, and there are no outstanding shares held by the Co-Founders subject to the Equity Exchange Right. The form of equity exchange right agreement is included as an exhibit to our 2025 Form 10-K.

Board Structure

**Annual Election of Directors**

Our Board has been fully declassified since our 2024 annual meeting, and all directors are elected for one-year terms.

**Board Leadership Structure**

Our CEO, Vladimir Tenev, also serves as the Chair of our Board. Our Board believes his leadership and commitment to advancing our mission are important to achieving our strategic growth objectives. The Board believes that the Company and our stockholders benefit from Mr. Tenev's vision and deep understanding of our business and culture, as well as his detailed and in-depth knowledge of the issues, opportunities, and challenges facing the company and its business. Mr. Tenev's combined role enables strong leadership and strategic vision, creates clear accountability, and enhances our ability to communicate our message and strategy clearly and consistently to stockholders. At the same time, we have assembled a highly qualified group of independent directors with a diversity of perspectives and expertise to provide oversight and guidance to our management team.

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that one of our independent directors will serve as the Lead Independent Director at any time when the Chair of our Board is a member of management or is otherwise not independent, and our independent directors have elected Jonathan Rubinstein to serve as our Lead Independent Director. As Lead Independent Director, Mr. Rubinstein, among other things:

• Presides over all meetings of the Board at which the Chair is not present, including any executive sessions of the independent directors;

• Consults with the Chair to determine and approve schedules and agendas for the meetings of our Board;

• Acts as liaison between the Chair and the independent directors and between our management and the independent directors;

• May call special meetings of the Board in accordance with our Bylaws; and

• Along with the Chair, serves as a point person for stockholders wishing to communicate with the Board.

Our Board believes that a leadership structure with a strong and empowered Lead Independent Director provides effective independent oversight of management and an important independent leadership voice in the boardroom and beyond to partner with and challenge management when necessary to ensure strong accountability to our stockholders. Our Board's independent directors also provide strong independent leadership for each of our standing committees. We believe that our current leadership structure, together with strong governance practices, creates a productive relationship between our Board and management, including strong independent oversight that benefits our stockholders.

**See "Oversight of Risk Management" on pages [56](#if1b52c7b1ffd40b2aff1c6ee90275ea7_127)-[57](#i6f3acd0ea0ff449780f566bdb733d37c_1-0-1-7-1196289) for additional information regarding our Board's role in risk oversight.**

|  | &nbsp;&nbsp;**What is a Lead Independent Director and why does Robinhood have one?** |
| Because the Chair of our Board, Vladimir Tenev, is our CEO and, therefore, not an "independent" director, our independent directors have elected a "Lead Independent Director" to ensure effective independent oversight of management. Although Mr. Tenev's combined CEO/Chair role provides strong leadership and strategic vision, among other things, our Board believes that our leadership structure is strengthened and empowered with a Lead Independent Director as well. | Because the Chair of our Board, Vladimir Tenev, is our CEO and, therefore, not an "independent" director, our independent directors have elected a "Lead Independent Director" to ensure effective independent oversight of management.

Director Engagement

**Meetings of the Board and Director Attendance**

Overall Attendance at Board and Committee Meetings

During 2025, the Board held 6 meetings and its standing committees held 23 meetings. During 2025, each incumbent director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of the Board and of the committees on which he or she served or held during the portion of the year for which he or she was a director or committee member.

Executive Sessions

Independent directors of our Board meet in regularly scheduled sessions without any non-independent directors or management. The Lead Independent Director chairs the executive sessions of the independent directors, who meet periodically (and at least twice annually) during regularly scheduled meetings.

Policy for Director Attendance at Annual Meetings of Stockholders

It is the Company's policy that directors are invited and encouraged to attend the annual meeting of stockholders. All of our directors on the Board at such time attended the 2025 annual meeting.

**Director Education and Orientation Program**

The Company provides an orientation and continuing education process for Board members to enable them to stay current on developments related to their Board and committee service. Educational opportunities may include seminars, presentations, relevant materials, meetings with key management, and/or visits to Company facilities. The NomGov Committee is responsible for reviewing the Company's programs relating to director orientation and continuing education from time to time.

At the end of their orientation, new directors should: know key information about Robinhood's business, vision, strategy, leaders, and organization; feel excited about joining the Board, welcomed, and supported as a new director, and well-informed about their responsibilities and duties as directors; and have access to resources, information, and contacts that will enable them to be effective in their role. |
| **Continuing**<br>**Education** | The Company provides quarterly updates on continuing education opportunities and will reimburse Board members for the cost of any programs Board members attend. |
| **Beyond the**<br>**Boardroom** | Throughout their service, our directors have discussions with each other and senior leadership of the Company outside of regularly scheduled Board and committee meetings in order to share ideas and perspectives, build relationships, and gain a deeper understanding of the Company's business. |

**Board and Committee Performance Assessments**

Under our Corporate Governance Guidelines, our Board and each standing committee is required to conduct an annual performance assessment. These assessments are intended to facilitate an examination and discussion by the Board and each such committee of, among other matters, its effectiveness as a group in fulfilling its charter requirements and other responsibilities, its performance, and opportunities for improvement. The NomGov Committee oversees the format and framework for each annual assessment and also utilizes the results of the assessment process in recommending the characteristics and critical skills required of prospective candidates for election to the Board and making recommendations to the Board with respect to assignments of Board members to its various committees. Results of those self-assessments are also shared with management, as appropriate, to assist the Board and committees in making enhancements to address opportunities identified.

**CEO Evaluation**

Our People Committee oversees an annual review of the performance of our CEO. The People Committee initiated the evaluation process at the end of 2025 by discussing areas of focus with our Lead Independent Director, including our CEO's development of Robinhood's vision and strategy and his communication of the vision, execution against strategy, and leadership and team-building, with respect to both the executive team and the Board. Our Lead Independent Director met with each director as well as with senior executives and discussed confidential feedback on those areas of focus. Our Lead Independent Director also met with our CEO to discuss his self-assessment of his performance and achievements. Following those meetings, the consolidated feedback was provided by our Lead Independent Director to our CEO and discussed with the Board in executive sessions.

Key Areas of Board Oversight

**Oversight of Risk Management**

Robinhood, like most public companies, faces a number of risks, which include, among others, strategic, financial, business and operational, legal, regulatory, compliance, and reputational risks. While our Board maintains ultimate responsibility for the oversight of risk, Robinhood has implemented a multi-layered approach to manage risk in our operations, including through Board, Board committees, and management oversight of these risks.

At the Board level, our Board has responsibility for the oversight of enterprise risk management and reviews strategic and operational risks. Our Board performs this oversight at each regular Board meeting or as needed through discussions, Board committee reports highlighting all significant committee activities, management reports, and meetings with external advisors with expertise on relevant risk-related matters. Our Board also evaluates relevant risks when reviewing or approving significant transactions. Our Chair, Lead Independent Director, and the chairs of our Board committees meet with leaders in senior management to identify and discuss risks and exposures and escalate potential issues to the relevant Board committee or the Board, as appropriate.

The Board's committees assist the Board in risk oversight by addressing and overseeing certain categories of risk management within the purview of each committee as described in the below chart.

Our Board believes its leadership structure effectively supports the risk oversight function of the Board. Management's reporting processes are designed to provide visibility to our Board regarding the identification, assessment, and management of risks and management's strategic approach to risk mitigation. Subject to Board and Board committee oversight, management is responsible for our day-to-day risk management processes. Our Board and Board committees are in regular communication with management regarding risk identification and mitigation, including through management's attendance at Board and committee meetings and direct communications outside of meetings.

**Oversight of Data Privacy and Cybersecurity**

Our Board is committed to mitigating data privacy and cybersecurity risks and recognizes the importance of these issues as part of our risk management framework. Our Board and Safety Committee's principal role is one of oversight, recognizing that management is responsible for the design, implementation, and maintenance of an effective program for protecting against and mitigating data privacy and cybersecurity risks. Although no organization can eliminate cybersecurity and information technology risk completely, the Company has a cybersecurity program that includes physical, technological, and administrative controls designed to detect, contain, respond to and remediate cybersecurity threats and incidents and defined processes to assess, identify, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats. Management has established cybersecurity standards to improve our cybersecurity risk posture and to help define and implement appropriate measures to protect the Company's systems and data from cyber threats. Our Enterprise Risk Management team provides governance over risk management practices and reports on a quarterly basis on top risks to the Safety Committee, along with planned mitigants and monitoring procedures. Our Safety Committee reviews management's exercise of its responsibility to identify, assess, manage, monitor and mitigate material risks not specifically allocated to the Board or another of its committees. The Safety Committee has been explicitly assigned the responsibility to oversee risks from cybersecurity and data privacy threats, among others, and the full Board will be notified when our Materiality Assessment Committee (which must determine, without unreasonable delay, whether a cybersecurity incident is materials to the Company) is assessing a cybersecurity incident and informed of any required disclosures. Our Board and Safety Committee receive updates on relevant industry developments, threats, and material risks identified as needed each quarter, including material legal and legislative developments, concerning data privacy and security, the rapidly evolving cybersecurity risk landscape, and the Safety Committee facilitates the Board's oversight responsibilities.

More information about our risk management, strategy, and governance with respect to risks from cybersecurity threats can be found in Part I, Item 1C of our 2025 Form 10-K.

**Succession Planning**

The Board is responsible for maintaining a robust process for the succession of directors that is aimed at retaining an appropriate balance with respect to the expertise and experience on the Board. For more details on what the NomGov Committee and Board considers in connection with director candidates, see pages [43](#if1b52c7b1ffd40b2aff1c6ee90275ea7_97)-[44](#if1b52c7b1ffd40b2aff1c6ee90275ea7_103). In addition, our Board recognizes the importance of identifying and developing executive talent to ensure we continue to have effective executive leadership in place both now and in the future. The Board is responsible for working with senior management to ensure that effective plans are in place for management succession and, as part of that process, the CEO reports to the Board or a relevant committee from time to time on succession planning matters. The People Committee also receives regular updates on talent, which includes review of the Company's talent strategies, executive new hires, promotions and role changes, and succession plans for key executive positions.

|  | &nbsp;&nbsp;**What is succession planning?** |

Retail Stockholder Engagement

We remain focused on our mission to democratize finance for all. Anchored in our value of Participation is Power, we promote engagement with our retail stockholders through the Say platform in two main ways. Through Say, we strengthen retail participation by providing the most accessible method for retail stockholders to vote by proxy at the annual meetings. Further, Say opens a direct communication line between stockholders and the Company by inviting our retail stockholders to ask questions on our earnings calls and annual meetings. We introduced Say at our inaugural 2022 annual meeting of stockholders and have continued to refine the platform for users and utilize it at our annual meetings to solicit our retail stockholders' key questions and topics of interest. The live Q&A session with our CEO at the 2025 annual meeting was a main component of the meeting — our CEO addressed the retail stockholders' questions directly. We are once again utilizing Say and having a live Q&A session at this annual meeting.

Institutional Stockholder Engagement

We highly value the perspectives of all of our stockholders and also maintain an ongoing engagement program to facilitate meaningful dialogue with our institutional stockholders. In 2025, we transitioned our institutional stockholder engagement program to a responsive engagement model. We prioritized investor-led dialogue, remaining fully accessible and responsive to all institutional stockholders who contacted us with inquiries or requested meetings. Because these discussions were investor-directed, the topics varied based on stockholder interests, generally covering high-level themes such as our business and strategy, corporate governance, executive compensation practices, Board oversight, and our approach to strategic risks and sustainability. Management shared the insights gathered from these interactions with our NomGov Committee and the full Board.

As our stockholder base evolves, we remain committed to maintaining an open-door policy to ensure we understand the perspectives and interests across our stockholder base.

**Delivering on Our Mission**

Sustainability Priorities

We maintain strategic programs, such as sustainability, to ensure Robinhood remains a company rooted in transparency and trust. Sustainability is our vehicle for long-term growth, allowing us to align our business with the values of a new generation of investors and customers. We launched our first sustainability report when we became a public company, and we publish information annually to provide all stakeholders transparency on our priorities and how we operate.

Governance: Governing Responsibly

Robinhood has a steadfast commitment to maintaining high standards of business, professional conduct, and compliance. We seek to earn and keep the trust of our customers and stakeholders each day by upholding our values and maintaining a culture of integrity. This includes but is not limited to our codes of conduct, the ability to speak up safely, and our commitment to privacy, security, and governance oversight.

Anchored in our value of Safety Always, we believe we have a strong, highly experienced Board that provides effective oversight of risk, regulatory, compliance, and ethics matters. Our Board is also responsible for overseeing our governance efforts: the NomGov Committee oversees management's strategy and reporting on sustainability.

Social: Human Capital Management

At Robinhood, delivering on our ambitious, innovative roadmap requires a great culture—how we hire, how we work, and how we foster high performance. Our human capital strategy reflects that. We hire top talent who care deeply about the mission and have a track record of impact. We remove bureaucracy, operate with urgency, and foster community through a great employee experience. We reward people with competitive compensation and benefits, providing outsized rewards for outsized impact. We also ensure an inclusive culture where employees can connect, different perspectives can be heard, and everyone can do their best work. The People Committee assists the Board in overseeing the Company's policies and strategies relating to workplace inclusion culture and HCM.

Environmental: Working Towards Sustainability

Robinhood understands that protecting our planet helps sustain long-term economic growth, and we utilize our corporate capabilities to address environmental challenges. Since 2019, we've completed an annual greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory. We report Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions across our value chain—including building operations, cloud usage and contracted co-located data centers, employee work-from-home, purchased goods and services, marketing, and business travel. We've also taken early steps to build out an environmental program at Robinhood aimed at reducing emissions and other facets of our carbon footprint.

**Other Governance Policies and Practices**

Corporate Governance Guidelines

The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines to establish the basis for the corporate governance of the Company and to comply with applicable law and Nasdaq listing standards. The Corporate Governance Guidelines set our Board's policy with respect to, among other things, conduct of Board meetings, director qualifications and tenure, Board leadership, term limits, director stock ownership requirements, leadership development, and succession planning. The Corporate Governance Guidelines can be found on the Corporate Governance section of the Company's Investor Relations website at **<u>investors.robinhood.com/governance/governance-documents</u>**.

Code of Conduct

Our Board has adopted a Code of Conduct that applies to all of our officers, directors, employees, and contingent workers, including our CEO, Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), and other executive and senior officers. The Board has also adopted a Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Executives. The full text of both our Code of Conduct and our Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Executives is available on the Corporate Governance section of the Company's Investor Relations website at **<u>investors.robinhood.com/governance/governance-documents</u>**. We will promptly disclose any amendments to either the Code of Conduct or the Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Executives, as well as any waivers under either code, on our investor relations website or in a current or periodic report filed with the SEC within four days of the amendment or waiver.

Insider Trading Policy

We have adopted a Confidential Information and Insider Trading Policy (the "Insider Trading Policy") governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of Company securities by directors, officers and employees that we believe is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and listing standards applicable to the Company. In addition, the Company may not, directly or indirectly, buy or sell its securities while in possession of material nonpublic information related to the Company unless the transaction otherwise complies with all applicable securities laws and the Company is not prohibited from buying or selling its securities in accordance with a trading plan adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act that complies with all applicable federal and state securities laws.

Policy Against Hedging and Pledging

The Company recognizes that hedging against losses in Company shares may disturb the alignment between stockholders and Robinhood insiders that the Company's equity awards and stock ownership policies are intended to build. As a matter of Robinhood policy and pursuant to the Insider Trading Policy, subject to rare and limited exceptions, all employees of, members of the Board of, members of the boards of managers of, and officers of, Robinhood, their family members, and their controlled entities if applicable (collectively, "covered persons") are prohibited from purchasing financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, exchange funds, and event contracts), or otherwise engaging in transactions, with the purpose or effect of limiting or eliminating economic risks associated with owning our securities. Our Trading Compliance Officer may grant an exception to this prohibition on a case-by-case basis, subject to such internal approvals as our Trading Compliance Officer, in his or her sole discretion, may request. "Our securities" for purposes of this paragraph includes (i) all securities that Robinhood (including its subsidiaries) has issued, including common stock and warrants to purchase common stock (and any other securities that Robinhood may issue in the future, including, but not limited to, preferred shares, notes, and debentures); (ii) any derivative financial products, contracts, or similar instruments pertaining to Robinhood's securities, whether or not issued by Robinhood, such as options and forward contracts; and (iii) any derivative financial products, contracts, or similar instruments that are tied to Robinhood metrics, performance, or events, whether or not issued by Robinhood, such as event contracts (the derivative financial products, contracts, or similar instruments set forth in (ii) and (iii) are collectively referred to in this paragraph as "Robinhood Derivatives"). In addition, covered persons, consultants, and agents are not permitted to hold or trade in Robinhood Derivatives. RSUs, employee stock options, and other derivative securities granted to insiders under our equity incentive plans are excluded from this prohibition of trading in Robinhood Derivatives (but are generally nontransferable according to their terms). Covered persons are also not permitted to pledge our securities and are prohibited from purchasing our securities on margin and/or holding our securities in accounts that are authorized for margin trading. Our Trading Compliance Officer may grant an exception to such prohibitions on a case-by-case basis, subject to such internal approvals as our Trading Compliance Officer, in his or her sole discretion, may request. With respect to the VPF Transaction (as defined below) described in footnote 13 in "Beneficial Ownership of Principal Stockholders and Management" below, in November 2025, the full Board, with Mr. Malka recusing himself and abstaining, approved a limited exemption from the Insider Trading Policy's prohibitions on hedging and pledging given Mr. Malka's significant equity holdings outside of the VPF.

Communications with Directors

The Board has established a process to receive communications from stockholders and other interested parties. Stockholders and other interested parties may contact any member (or all members) of the Board, the non-employee directors as a group, any Board committee, or any chair of any committee by mail or electronically. To communicate with the Board or any member, group, or committee thereof, correspondence should be addressed to the Board or any member, group, or committee thereof by name or title. All such correspondence should be sent to Robinhood Markets, Inc., "Attention: Corporate Secretary" at 85 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California 94025 or electronically to **<u>CorporateSecretary@robinhood.com</u>**.

Communications regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters may be reported to the Audit Committee using the above address. All communications received as set forth above will be opened by the office of the Corporate Secretary for the purpose of determining whether the contents represent an appropriate message to the Company's directors. Materials that are not in the nature of advertising, soliciting, or promoting a product or service and that are not patently offensive will be forwarded to the Chair of the Board and the Lead Independent Director (if applicable) or, if the communication is confidential or should otherwise be restricted, to the identified directors or the directors who are members of the group or committee to which the envelope is addressed.

**Director Compensation**

The Board assessed director compensation arrangements at our peer group companies with the assistance of our independent compensation consultant, Pay Governance LLC ("Pay Governance"), and adopted a Non-Employee Director Compensation Program. The Non-Employee Director Compensation Program specifies the compensation paid to our non-employee directors following the IPO and is intended to attract and retain, on a long-term basis, exceptional directors. We periodically evaluate our Non-Employee Director Compensation Program as part of our regular review of our overall compensation program and strategy and may make adjustments, as appropriate.

Under our Non-Employee Director Compensation Program, each non-employee director receives cash and equity compensation for service on our Board. In addition, the Lead Independent Director, committee chairs, and committee members are entitled to receive annual cash retainers, payable quarterly in arrears (and prorated for any partial quarter of service).

Each non-employee director is entitled to receive an annual cash retainer of $50,000 for Board membership, payable quarterly in arrears (and prorated for any partial quarter of service). Each non-employee director may elect to have his or her cash retainers paid in the form of equity, either as fully vested shares of Class A common stock or fully vested RSUs (with deferred settlement) in respect of Class A common stock. Elections must be made in advance. Each director who elects to receive equity in lieu of cash will automatically be granted a number of shares or RSUs, as applicable, each quarter equal to the amount of his or her quarterly retainer divided by the closing price per share of our Class A common stock on the grant date, which is generally the last day of the calendar quarter for which the retainer would otherwise have been paid.

Starting June 24, 2025, each non-employee director who is first elected or appointed to the Board will receive an automatic initial award of a number of RSUs determined by dividing $265,000 by the grant date closing price of our Class A common stock. This initial award will vest in equal quarterly installments over three years, subject to the non-employee director providing services through each applicable vesting date. Additionally, starting June 24, 2025, on the date of each annual meeting of our stockholders, each non-employee director continuing as a director after the meeting will automatically be granted a number of RSUs determined by dividing $265,000 by the grant date closing price of our Class A common stock. Any non-employee director who joins our Board between annual meetings will automatically be granted a prorated annual award of RSUs for the first partial year of service. Annual grants will vest in equal quarterly installments over one year, subject to the non-employee director providing services through each applicable vesting date (with the final tranche scheduled to vest the day before the next annual meeting, and with prorated annual grants vesting in tandem with the full-year annual grants). Each non-employee director may also elect to defer the settlement of equity compensation by completing and filing a deferral election form. Any such deferred compensation will be settled at the time specified in the director's deferral election form.

The terms of our non-employee directors' RSUs (whether granted pre-IPO or post-IPO) provide for full acceleration of any outstanding but unvested RSUs upon a change in control of Robinhood.

Director Compensation Table

The following table presents fiscal year 2025 compensation information for Robinhood's non-employee directors who served during any part of 2025. Mr. Tenev, who served as an employee director for all of 2025, received no additional compensation for his service on the Board.

<sup>(1)</sup> Represents amounts paid in respect of Board service in 2025. Cash amounts differ, in part, because some directors elected pursuant to our Non-Employee Director Compensation Program to receive RSUs in lieu of their quarterly cash fees for Board and committee service (see "Director Compensation" above) and directors joined the Board at different points during the year.

<sup>(2)</sup> Represents the aggregate grant date fair value of each director's RSUs computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification™ Topic 718 Compensation—Stock Compensation ("FASB ASC 718"). These amounts represent only the grant date fair value for accounting purposes and do not reflect whether the director has actually realized a financial benefit from the awards (such as by vesting in stock). For information on the assumptions used in the grant date fair value computations, refer to the following sections of our 2025 Form 10-K: "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Estimates;" Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements—"Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Share-based Compensation;" and Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements—"Common Stock and Stockholders' Equity—Equity Incentive Plans."

**Director Stock Ownership Guidelines**

The Board has adopted stock ownership guidelines for our non-employee directors. The stock ownership requirements established by the Board provide that each non-employee director should own at least a specified amount of Robinhood stock or other Qualifying Equity Securities (as defined below). Under the policy, the ownership requirement for non-employee directors is as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Non-Employee Director** | | **5x** |
| **Non-Employee Director** | Annual Board <br>Cash Retainer | |

| These require directors and/or management to maintain minimum levels of stock ownership in the company-this guides directors to think like owners and helps align their interest with stockholder interests. | These require directors and/or management to maintain minimum levels of stock ownership in the company-this guides directors to think like owners and helps align their interest with stockholder interests. |

---

The policy sets the ownership guideline at five times the annual Board cash retainer, or $250,000 in 2025 based on the current annual cash retainer for Board membership of $50,000.

"Qualifying Equity Securities" include common stock of the Company and vested RSUs or performance units held by the director or any immediate family members living in his or her household or by a trust under which he or she or any such immediate family member is a beneficiary. Compliance with this policy is assessed at the end of each fiscal year and is measured based on the average closing price of the Company's Class A common stock over the last twenty (20) trading days of such year. Each non-employee director has five years from the later of (a) the date he or she joined the Board and (b) the date of the IPO to satisfy the stock ownership obligation. The stock ownership guidelines promote stockholder alignment and will be periodically evaluated by the People Committee. All of our directors will each be required to satisfy the non-employee director ownership guidelines by the deadline described above, and as of the end of 2025, all of our non-employee directors serving at such time have satisfied the non-employee director ownership guidelines.

The Company's stock ownership policy for executive officers is described in the section "Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Stock Ownership Guidelines."

![02 PRO013634_icon_proposal2.jpg](hood-20260422_g126.jpg)<br>Advisory Vote to Approve the Compensation of Our Named Executive Officers<br>

In accordance with the requirements of Section 14A of the Exchange Act and the related rules of the SEC, you have the opportunity to cast your non-binding, advisory vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs. Consistent with the results of our first non-binding, advisory "Say-on-Frequency" vote conducted at our 2022 annual meeting, our Board determined that we will hold a Say-on-Pay vote every year and expect that the next such vote will occur at the 2027 annual meeting.

Our Board believes that our compensation philosophy, policies, and practices promote a performance-based culture and align our executives' interests with those of our stockholders through a strong emphasis on at-risk compensation linked to long-term performance. The Board recommends that our stockholders vote to approve the compensation of our NEOs.

For more information on our executive compensation program and the fiscal 2025 compensation of our NEOs, see "Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis" and "Executive Compensation—Compensation Tables."

The Say-on-Pay vote is advisory, and therefore is not binding on us, our People Committee or our Board. Our People Committee and our Board value the opinion of our stockholders, will carefully review the voting results, and will consider them when making future compensation decisions for our NEOs.

The Board recommends that stockholders vote "FOR" the following resolution:

"RESOLVED, that the stockholders of the Company approve, on an advisory basis, the 2025 compensation of the Company's named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation and other tables, and the narrative discussion."

| • **Funded Customers grew by 1.8 million to a record 27 million**<br>• **Total Platform Assets grew to a record $322 billion, driven by continued Net Deposits, acquired assets, and higher equity valuations** | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Record total net revenues of $4.5 billion** <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Record net income of $1.9 billion**<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Delivered on an aggressive product roadmap across Brokerage, Crypto, and Money** |

2025 was a year of incredible product velocity across our three strategic arcs: becoming #1 for active traders, becoming #1 in wallet share for the next generation, and building the #1 global financial ecosystem.

We delivered a number of cutting-edge trading tools and capabilities for active traders throughout the year. We launched our Prediction Markets Hub, where customers traded over 12 billion event contracts in 2025, and we expanded our equities offering with shorting – a top requested feature, just to name a few.

Turning to wallet share, we've been making great progress broadening our offering and attracting more long term investing. At the end of 2025, more than 40% of our Total Platform Assets were across ETFs, Advisory, Retirement, and Cash. Plus, we grew the Robinhood Gold Card by over 5 times to over 600,000 cardholders, and we began rolling out Robinhood Banking.

Finally, we're making good early progress building the Global Financial Ecosystem. Our institutional cryptocurrency exchange, Bitstamp, continued to scale – with volumes more than doubling since the acquisition closed in June 2025. We launched stock tokens and perpetual futures in Europe, and in early 2026 we launched stocks and shares individual savings accounts ("ISAs") for our U.K. customers, their local tax advantaged account. This has led to our international customer base growing to over 750,000.

**2025 Executive Compensation Highlights**

The People Committee reviews our executive compensation program on a regular basis with respect to competitive market practices, our strategic objectives, and our pay-for-performance philosophy. The following key decisions were made with respect to compensation in 2025:

• **No change to CEO compensation.** Our CEO continues to receive a modest base salary, did not participate in our annual cash incentive program, and did not receive any new equity grants in 2025.

• **Changed annual incentive bonus measures.** The People Committee shifted the 2025 cash incentive plan's measures to include International Net Funded Accounts in addition to total net revenues, adjusted net income, Net Deposits, and Gold Subscriber growth.

• **Granted equity awards during our annual refresh cycle to non-CEO NEOs.** The People Committee granted time-based equity awards to our non-CEO NEOs that vest quarterly over four years. The intended target value of these awards was $12 million for Mr. Quirk, $10 million for Mr. Gallagher, $4.5 million for Mr. Pinner, and $12 million for Mr. Warnick.

Please see the Appendix of this proxy statement for additional information on our non-GAAP financial and compensation measures, including a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, as applicable.

**Executive Compensation Philosophy and Objectives**

We operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing market environment. For Robinhood to execute on its ambitious roadmap with high product velocity, we strive to hire the best talent based on ability and merit. We seek people who care deeply about our mission and operate with an entrepreneurial and solutions-driven mindset to drive business growth, foster industry leadership, and create an innovative environment. Our compensation program is designed to reward and retain this key executive talent and align executives' long-term interests with those of our stockholders. The guiding principles underpinning our compensation program design and decisions are:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**Market Competitive** | **Pay for Performance** | **Clarity and Simplicity** | **Focus on Ownership** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Ensure our compensation programs are competitive with the market in which we operate so we can attract and retain talented and experienced executives who can deliver successful business performance and drive long-term stockholder value. | &nbsp;&nbsp;Weight the largest portion of compensation in the form of variable and long-term incentives to support the achievement of Company objectives and enhance the linkage between executive and stockholder interests. | &nbsp;&nbsp;Design compensation programs and practices that are easily understood and encourage our executives to focus on achieving key business objectives. | &nbsp;&nbsp;Incentivize long-term entrepreneurial thinking so our executives will act like owners. |

Elements of Compensation

The primary elements of our 2025 executive compensation program consist of base salary, annual cash incentives, and long-term equity incentive awards.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Compensation Type** | **Key Features** |
| **Base Salary** | Fixed level of cash compensation for expected day-to-day responsibilities.<br>Reviewed annually and may be adjusted based on performance, scope of responsibility, and competitive market. |
| **Annual Cash Incentive** | Variable cash incentive opportunity based on the achievement of pre-established annual financial and operating objectives. |
| **Long-Term Incentives** | Equity awards with multi-year vesting to reinforce the importance of long-term ownership, create alignment with our stockholders, and promote retention.<br>Equity-based compensation is the most significant portion of compensation for our executive officers to reinforce our pay-for-performance culture and alignment with stockholders. |

---

2025 Executive Pay Mix

Since our IPO in 2021, our CEO's compensation has been limited to a modest base salary. He does not participate in the annual cash incentive program and has not received new equity awards. The Board is evaluating potential future compensation arrangements for Mr. Tenev following the vesting of his remaining equity incentive compensation in 2025. Our non-CEO NEOs received a significant portion of compensation in the form of short- and long-term incentives that are either directly tied to key performance metrics or at risk and/or linked to the value of our stock. In 2025, 94% of our non-CEO NEOs' compensation, on average, was tied to performance.

**2025 Executive Compensation Program**

Robinhood's executive compensation program is designed to focus our executive officers on the long-term performance of the Company and to create significant stockholder alignment. We believe that equity awards align the interests of our executive officers with our stockholders, provide our executive officers with incentives linked to long-term performance, and foster an ownership mentality. The long-term vesting features of our equity awards serve an important retentive function that reflects the value we place on management longevity. The People Committee gives no single element in our executive compensation program any fixed weight, but rather each executive's compensation level and the mix of compensation elements reflect the People Committee's business judgment with respect to the above factors and consideration of alignment with stockholder interests.

Base Salaries

We provide base salary as a fixed source of compensation for our executive officers' day-to-day responsibilities, allowing them a degree of certainty in the face of having a substantial percentage of their compensation at risk in the form of bonuses contingent on the achievement of specific performance goals and equity awards contingent on the long-term performance of Robinhood's stock price.

Each executive officer's base salary is determined based upon a number of factors, including individual performance, scope of responsibility, and competitive market. Base salary is assessed each year as part of the People Committee's annual review process. In March 2025, the People Committee reviewed the base salaries of our NEOs and determined to keep salaries unchanged for all NEOs.

Annual Cash Incentive

The People Committee introduced a performance-based annual cash incentive for NEOs starting in 2022 as a means to further motivate performance on annual financial and operating metrics tied to our long-term strategy and performance. In March 2025, the People Committee reviewed the bonus targets for our NEOs and determined to keep them unchanged.

For 2025, the People Committee also modified the annual cash incentive plan's performance measures and added International Net Funded Accounts. The measures and weighting of the 2025 bonus for non-CEO NEOs were:

• Total net revenues (25%)

• Adjusted net income (25%)

• Net Deposits (20%)

• Gold Subscriber growth (20%)

• International Net Funded Accounts (10%) – New for 2025.

The People Committee worked with management to set targets that reflect our growth objectives to drive long-term value creation for our stockholders. When setting these goals, the People Committee considered relevant factors, including previous year financial results, current business and macroeconomic conditions, and our financial plan and expectations for the year. Each measure's target was intended to be challenging yet attainable in the context of our expectations at the beginning of the year.

For 2025, the Company achieved greater than maximum performance for total net revenues and adjusted net income, between target and maximum performance for each of Net Deposits and Gold Subscriber growth, and below target performance for International Net Funded Accounts. As a result of these accomplishments, the People Committee approved payouts at 177.3% of target.

Long-Term Incentive Equity Awards

We believe that, by structuring a significant portion of our executive officers' compensation in the form of equity awards that vest over multiple years, we motivate our executive officers to remain at Robinhood, and stay focused on advancing our mission, and maximizing long-term stockholder value.

In 2025, the People Committee granted long-term equity in the form of time-based RSUs to our non-CEO NEOs. We believe time-based RSUs balance direct alignment to stockholders while providing a strong level of retention with simplicity.

The size of awards made to our non-CEO NEOs is not determined based on a specific formula but rather through the exercise of the People Committee's judgment after considering a host of factors, including market data, individual performance, the CEO's recommendation, importance or criticality of role, scope of responsibility, the current unvested equity held by each non-CEO NEO and related vesting schedules, and the potential retentive value of the proposed awards.

**Refresh Grants.** The People Committee granted time-based RSUs to certain non-CEO NEOs during our annual review cycle that vest quarterly over four years. The intended target value of the refresh award was $10 million for Mr. Gallagher, $12 million for Mr. Quirk, $4.5 million for Mr. Pinner, and $12 million for Mr. Warnick.

**Other Benefits**

**Personal Security**. The personal safety and security of employees is of utmost importance to Robinhood. As such, the People Committee approved an overall security program for our CEO and other NEOs on the basis of an ongoing assessment of security risks and in instances of threats made to our executives. We have provided a personal security detail and a residential security detail to Mr. Tenev, and offer personal security services to Mr. Warnick, Mr. Gallagher, Mr. Quirk, and Mr. Pinner through monitoring of security systems at their residences. We also offered online monitoring to all NEOs to keep their private information off the internet. In addition, Mr. Tenev uses private aircraft for business and personal travel in connection with his overall security program. On certain occasions, Mr. Tenev may be accompanied by family members when using private aircraft. The security budget for our NEOs and the specific security concerns justifying it are reviewed by the People Committee on an annual basis or more frequently, as needed.

The People Committee believes the costs of our security program are an appropriate and necessary business expense and does not consider such security costs to be a perquisite for the executives' personal benefits. Pursuant to the applicable SEC guidance, we have reported the aggregate incremental costs of these services in the "All Other Compensation" column of the Summary Compensation Table.

**Employee Benefit Programs and 401(k) Match.** The NEOs are eligible to participate in the Company's 401(k) plan, health, and welfare benefit plans and programs and other plans and programs made available to the Company's employees generally. The Company matches 401(k) contributions up to 3% of each paycheck.

We do not maintain any supplemental executive-only retirement or health programs, nor do we provide other material perks to executives. The People Committee does not view personal security as a perk due to the existing safety and security environment of the business and our executives.

**Compensation Setting Process**

Role of the People Committee

The People Committee works closely with its independent compensation consultant, Pay Governance, and meets regularly, including in executive sessions without members of management present, to review market data and make decisions on our executive compensation program with respect to the compensation of our CEO and other executives. Compensation granted to our NEOs is not determined based on a specific formula but rather through the exercise of the People Committee's judgment after considering multiple factors, including market data, individual performance, the CEO's recommendation, importance of role, scope of responsibility, the current unvested equity held by each NEO and related vesting schedules, the potential retentive value of the compensation package, and the review of our Say-on-Pay vote results. The People Committee gives no single factor any fixed weight. Each executive's compensation level, as well as the appropriate mix of equity award types and other compensation elements, ultimately reflects the People Committee's business judgment in consideration of these factors and stockholder interests.

The People Committee has adopted a schedule for granting equity awards. Under this schedule, equity awards for our executive officers are generally granted at regularly scheduled meetings throughout the year. We do not grant awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information. In addition, grants of equity awards to our executive officers were also subject to the approval of our full Board.

Role of Management

Our CEO and other executives do not set their own compensation, nor are they present when the People Committee sets their specific individual compensation. Our CEO provides his evaluation of each executive officer's performance to the People Committee and makes recommendations with respect to base salary, target annual incentives, and equity awards for each executive officer other than himself. Our CEO's recommendation is considered by the People Committee, which makes final determinations. The People department provides additional analysis and guidance as requested by the People Committee related to executive compensation, including (i) developing, summarizing, and presenting information and analyses to inform the People Committee's decision-making; (ii) attending People Committee meetings to provide requested information, respond to questions, and otherwise assist the People Committee; and (iii) assisting the CEO in making preliminary recommendations regarding each element of compensation.

Competitive Market Data

In setting compensation for the NEOs, the Board and the People Committee considers the base salaries, annual incentive opportunities, and long-term incentive compensation of executives in comparable roles at similar "peer" companies. In September 2024, the People Committee approved a peer group for 2025 in consultation with its independent compensation consultant, Pay Governance. The People Committee considered publicly traded consumer-focused technology companies, fintech companies, brokerage and exchange companies, and talent competitors, and selected a group where most companies had between 1/4x and 4x Robinhood's market capitalization at the time.

The executive compensation peer group was updated for 2025 to remove companies that did not fit our screening criteria. Coursera, Inc. was removed for the 2025 peer group. The 2025 peer group is shown below:

• Affirm Holdings, Inc.

• Block, Inc.

• Coinbase Global, Inc.

• DoorDash, Inc.

• Duolingo, Inc.

• Etsy, Inc.

• Interactive Brokers Group, Inc.

• Lyft, Inc.

• Maplebear, Inc.

• Pinterest, Inc.

• Rocket Companies, Inc.

• Snap, Inc.

• SoFi Technologies, Inc.

• Zillow Group, Inc.

In addition to these compensation peers, the Board and the People Committee also reviewed pay data from the Radford technology survey, where relevant.

Compensation Risk Assessment

The Company reviewed its compensation policies and practices in March 2026 and concluded that such policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. In particular, the People Committee assessed the compensation arrangements for the Company's executive officers and reviewed incentive and commission arrangements below the executive level and concluded that they do not encourage unnecessary or excessive risk-taking. The People Committee believes that the design of the Company's annual cash and long-term equity incentives for its executive officers provides an effective and appropriate mix of incentives to focus them on long-term stockholder value creation and does not encourage taking short-term risks at the expense of long-term results.

Say-on-Pay

At our 2025 annual meeting, we conducted our Say-on-Pay vote and received strong stockholder support with 98.5% of votes cast in favor of the Company's fiscal 2024 NEO compensation. The People Committee reviewed the final results of the advisory vote and, given the significant level of support, concluded that our executive compensation program provides an appropriately competitive package that incentivizes the performance of our NEOs, encourages their retention over the long-term, and aligns with stockholder interests. The People Committee will continue to consider the outcome of our Say-on-Pay votes and the views of our stockholders when making compensation decisions for our NEOs each year.

Consistent with the results of our first non-binding, advisory Say-on-Frequency vote conducted at our 2022 annual meeting, the Board determined to hold a Say-on-Pay vote every year commencing after our first Say-on-Pay vote at our 2024 annual meeting.

**Independent Consultant**

The People Committee continued to retain Pay Governance, an independent compensation consultant, to advise it on executive and director compensation matters in 2025. Pay Governance provided no other services to Robinhood. The People Committee has assessed the independence of Pay Governance and concluded that its engagement of Pay Governance does not raise any conflict of interest with Robinhood or any of our directors or executive officers.

To support the Board and the People Committee during 2025, Pay Governance developed the peer group of publicly traded companies to serve as a market reference, compiled market data on compensation levels and practices for executives and non-employee directors, considered the results of our Say-on-Pay votes, made recommendations from supporting analyses covering executive compensation philosophy, program design, and structure, and advised on compensation governance best practices and policies.

**Clawback Policy**

In September 2023, we adopted a new incentive-based compensation recovery policy as required by applicable Nasdaq listing standards. Our policy requires recoupment of excess incentive compensation paid to our executive officers if amounts paid were based on material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement that causes an accounting restatement, without regard to any fault or misconduct.

We also maintain a separate compensation clawback policy for incentive awards paid to our executive officers that provides the People Committee with the ability to recover compensation in the event an executive officer engages in certain types of detrimental conduct (namely, detrimental conduct that (i) results in an increased level of achievement against performance targets by the Company or the executive officer or (ii) causes material financial and/or reputational harm to the Company).

| These policies require money paid to an employee to be returned to the company upon certain events, such as fraud or a restatement of the company's financials.

**Stock Ownership Guidelines**

To better align the interests of our executive officers with those of our stockholders, we have in place a stock ownership policy that requires our executives to hold specified amounts of Robinhood stock or other Qualifying Equity Securities (as defined below). Under the policy, NEO stock ownership guidelines are as follows:

![03 PRO013634_bar_stock ownership guidelines_1.jpg](hood-20260422_g137.jpg)

"Qualifying Equity Securities" include common stock of the Company held by the executive or any immediate family members living in his or her household or by a trust under which he or she or any such immediate family member is a beneficiary. Compliance with this policy is assessed at the end of each fiscal year and is measured based on the average closing price of the Company's Class A common stock over the last twenty (20) trading days of such year. Stock options and unearned performance equity do not count toward satisfying the stock ownership guidelines.

Each executive has five years from the later of (a) the date he or she became an executive officer or (b) the date of the IPO to satisfy the applicable stock ownership guideline. The stock ownership guidelines promote the NEOs' alignment with stockholder interests and will be periodically evaluated by the People Committee. As of the end of 2025, each executive officer has satisfied the stock ownership guidelines.

The Company's stock ownership policy for non-employee directors is described in the section "Proposal 1: Election of Directors—Director Stock Ownership Guidelines."

Compensation Tables

The following tables present detailed compensation information regarding our NEOs.

**Summary Compensation Table**

The following table presents summary compensation information. As required by SEC rules, stock awards (RSUs and PSUs) are shown as compensation for the year in which they were granted and are valued based on their grant date fair values for accounting purposes. Therefore:

• the stock awards column reports RSUs and PSUs granted in the years shown even though they have multi-year vesting schedules; and

• because the stock awards column reports the grant of RSUs and PSUs, it does not reflect whether the executives actually realized any financial benefit from the awards (such as by vesting in stock).

Offer Letters

As of December 31, 2025, we had not entered into an offer letter or employment agreement with Mr. Tenev.

We have entered into offer letters with each of Mr. Warnick, Mr. Gallagher, Mr. Quirk, and Mr. Pinner. These offer letters provide for at-will employment and generally specify the NEO's initial base salary, initial equity awards, and eligibility to participate in our employee benefit plans generally.

**Jason Warnick.** We entered into an offer letter with Mr. Warnick, dated November 8, 2018. Pursuant to such letter agreement, Mr. Warnick's initial base salary was $300,000, and Mr. Warnick received a sign-on bonus opportunity of $300,000, the last installment of which was paid on the second anniversary following the commencement of his employment.

Mr. Warnick entered into a transition agreement with the Company in February 2026, which provides for his transition from CFO to an advisory role starting February 2026 and continued employment with the Company until September 1, 2026, during which time he remains eligible to continue vesting in his outstanding Company equity-based awards.

**Daniel Gallagher.** We entered into an offer letter with Mr. Gallagher, dated April 28, 2020, as amended on August 19, 2020, and December 15, 2020.

Mr. Pinner also received initial grants of 762,528 time-based RSUs.

401(k) Plan

We maintain a 401(k) plan that provides eligible U.S. employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. Eligible employees are able to defer eligible compensation up to certain Internal Revenue Code ("Code") limits, which are updated annually. We match 100% of the first 3% of employee contributions. Contributions are allocated to each participant's individual account and are then invested in selected investment alternatives according to the participants' directions. Employees are immediately and fully vested in their own contributions. The 401(k) plan is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code with the related trust intended to be tax exempt under Section 501(a) of the Code. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) plan are deductible by us when made, and contributions and earnings on those amounts are not taxable to the employees until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan.

**Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control**

The following sections describe the benefits that may become payable to our NEOs in connection with a termination of their employment with the Company and/or a change in control of the Company under arrangements in effect on December 31, 2025.

Change in Control and Severance Plan

In March 2021, our Board adopted our Change in Control and Severance Plan for Key Employees (our "CIC and Severance Plan"), including for all of the NEOs. In August 2024, our Board approved certain revisions to the CIC and Severance Plan to better align with market practices. The People Committee believes that providing our executives with specified benefits in the event of a termination of employment by Robinhood without cause (or in the event of a resignation by the executive for good reason) is consistent with market practices. It also helps us retain executives and maintain leadership stability. Furthermore, the People Committee believes that adopting uniform terms, as reflected in these severance arrangements, helps to ensure that our executives are treated fairly and consistently and could help the Company avoid the need to separately negotiate severance in connection with each individual termination of employment.

Each of our executive officers and each of our other employees at the level of vice president or above is eligible to participate in our CIC and Severance Plan. Our Board or People Committee administers the CIC and Severance Plan with respect to our executive officers, and our CEO administers the CIC and Severance Plan with respect to our employees.

Our CIC and Severance Plan provides benefits in the event of an "Involuntary Termination," which is defined to mean a termination of the participant's employment (a) by the participant for "good reason" (as defined in our CIC and Severance Plan) or (b) by the Company for a reason other than "cause" (as defined in our CIC and Severance Plan), death, or disability.

**Severance Not in Connection with a Change in Control**

In the event of an Involuntary Termination that occurs outside of any change in control period (as described below), a participant will be eligible for the following payments and benefits:

• a lump sum payment equal to (x) in the case of our CEO, the greater of $1.5 million and 18 months' base salary, (y) in the case of our other executive officers, 12 months' base salary, and (z) in the case of our other employees at the level of vice president or above, 9 months' base salary;

• a lump sum payment equal to 50% of the participant's target annual bonus at the time of termination, prorated based on the number of days the participant was employed with us during the year of termination and, if the participant's Involuntary Termination occurs prior to the bonus payment date of the annual bonus of the prior year, an additional amount in cash equal to 50% of the participant's target annual bonus for the year immediately preceding the year of the participant's Involuntary Termination;

• accelerated vesting of a portion of outstanding equity awards held by the participant (excluding performance-based equity awards) equal to (x) in the case of our CEO, 18 months of equity vesting following termination, (y) in the case of our other executive officers, (i) 9 months of equity vesting following termination if such executive officer has worked in any position as a full-time employee of the Company (including its affiliates) for at least 24 months, or (ii) 6 months of equity vesting following termination if such executive officer has worked in any position as a full-time employee of the Company (including its affiliates) for less than 24 months, and (z) in the case of our other employees at the level of vice president or above, 3 months of equity vesting following termination; and

• a lump sum payment equal to the monthly premiums for continued health coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1985 as amended ("COBRA"), on an after-tax basis, for a period of (x) in the case of our CEO, 18 months, (y) in the case of our other executive officers, 12 months, and (z) in the case of our other employees at the level of vice president or above, 9 months.

**Change-in-Control Severance**

The People Committee believes that the occurrence, or potential occurrence, of a change-in-control transaction may create uncertainty for our executives and other key employees. The CIC and Severance Plan is designed to help retain our key employees and maintain a stable work environment leading up to and during changes in control by providing employees certain economic benefits in the event their employment is actually or constructively terminated in connection with such a change.

In the event of an Involuntary Termination that occurs within a period beginning three months prior to and ending 18 months following a "change in control" (as defined in our CIC and Severance Plan) (such period, the "change in control period"), the participant will be eligible for the following payments and benefits:

• a lump sum payment equal to (x) in the case of our CEO, the greater of $2.0 million and 24 months' base salary, (y) in the case of our other executive officers, 18 months' base salary, and (z) in the case of our other employees at the level of vice president or above, 12 months' base salary;

• a lump sum payment equal to the sum of (x) the participant's target annual bonus at the time of termination, (y) 50% of the participant's target annual bonus, prorated based on the number of days the participant was employed with us during the year of termination, and (z) if the participant's Involuntary Termination occurs prior to the bonus payment date of the annual bonus of the prior year, an additional amount in cash equal to 50% of the participant's target annual bonus for the year immediately preceding the year of the participant's Involuntary Termination;

• a lump sum payment equal to the monthly premiums for continued health coverage under COBRA, on an after-tax basis, for a period of (x) in the case of our CEO, 24 months, (y) in the case of our other executive officers, 18 months, or (z) in the case of our other employees at the level of vice president or above, 12 months; and

• accelerated vesting of all outstanding equity awards held by the participant, excluding performance-based equity awards.

**Other Agreements**

In the event that a participant is party to an agreement providing for severance payments and benefits, such participant will be entitled to receive the greater of the cash severance payments and benefits and accelerated vesting of equity awards provided under such agreement and those provided under our CIC and Severance Plan.

**Release**

The receipt of the payments and benefits provided for under our CIC and Severance Plan described above is conditioned on the participant signing and not revoking a separation and release of claims satisfactory to the Company.

**Section 280G**

If any of the payments or benefits provided for under our CIC and Severance Plan or otherwise payable to a participant would constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and could be subject to the related excise tax, the participant will receive either the full payments and benefits under our CIC and Severance Plan (and be subject to the applicable excise tax) or such lesser amount that would result in no portion of the payments and benefits being subject to the excise tax, whichever results in the greater after-tax benefit to the participant. The estimates included below under "Estimated Severance and Change-in-Control Benefits" are presented assuming that no such reduction in benefits would be required. Our CIC and Severance Plan does not require us to provide any tax gross-up payments to the participants with respect to excise taxes.

**Amendment and Termination**

Our Board may amend or terminate our CIC and Severance Plan at any time prior to a change in control. Following a change in control, our CIC and Severance Plan may not be amended or terminated in any way that would prevent the participant from becoming eligible for the payments and benefits described above or reduce or alter such payments and benefits to the detriment of the participant. No amendment or termination will affect the rights of any participant to claim benefits under our CIC and Severance Plan for events occurring prior to the effective date of such amendment or termination.

Policy Providing Partial Acceleration upon Death or Permanent Disability

On March 10, 2021, our Board adopted a broad-based policy intended to provide our employees, including our NEOs, with additional financial security in the event of loss and hardship in recognition of the significant weight we place on equity incentive compensation. Under this policy, in the event that an employee's (including any NEO's) employment terminates due to death or permanent disability, the portion of such employee's RSUs and options that are subject to time-based vesting conditions and would have otherwise vested within the two years following such termination will vest and become exercisable; provided, that the maximum value of RSUs and options that will vest and become exercisable under this policy for any individual will not exceed $10.0 million in the aggregate. This policy applies to all outstanding awards under the 2013 Plan and the 2020 Plan (as defined below) and is reflected in the terms of all awards that we have granted under the 2021 Plan (as defined below).

Equity Plans

Described below are the provisions of our equity incentive plans governing how awards under the plans will generally be treated in connection with certain change in control transactions. The award treatment described below will generally be subject to any more-favorable treatment to which an executive may be entitled by contract or under the CIC and Severance Plan (each as described above).

**2021 Plan.** All equity awards granted after the IPO have been granted under our 2021 Plan. Our 2021 Plan provides that, unless otherwise determined by the administrator or provided in an award agreement, in the event of a "change in control" (as defined in our 2021 Plan) in which no provision is made for the acquirer's assumption of or substitution for awards (with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kinds of shares and the exercise prices), if applicable, then:

• any outstanding stock options or stock appreciation rights ("SARs") that are unexercisable or otherwise unvested will automatically be deemed exercisable or otherwise vested as of immediately prior to such change in control, and the administrator will have authority to cancel such stock options or SARs in exchange for cash payment equal to the applicable spread value, if any;

------

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **90** | **Robinhood**<br>Executive Compensation |

---

• all performance-based awards will automatically vest as of immediately prior to such change in control, at either the target or actual level of performance (as determined by the administrator) and will be paid out as soon as practicable following such change in control or such later date as may be required to comply with Section 409A of the Code; and

• all other outstanding awards that are unexercisable, unvested, or still subject to restrictions or forfeiture will automatically be deemed exercisable and vested, and all restrictions and forfeiture provisions will lapse as of immediately prior to such change in control, and the award will be paid out within 30 days following such change in control or such later date as may be required to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

The 2021 Plan further provides that, unless otherwise determined by the administrator or provided in an award agreement or a service provider's employment or service agreement with us or any of our affiliates, if within 12 months following a change in control in which the acquirer assumes or substitutes awards in accordance with our 2021 Plan, a participant's employment or service is terminated by us (or our successor) without "cause" (as defined in our 2021 Plan), then:

• any outstanding stock options or SARs that are unexercisable or otherwise unvested will automatically be deemed exercisable or otherwise vested as of the date of such termination and will remain exercisable until the earlier of the expiration of the existing term and 90 days following the date of such termination;

• all performance-based awards will automatically vest as of the date of such termination at either the target or actual level of performance (as determined by the administrator), and such deemed earned amount will be paid out as soon as practicable following such termination or such later date as may be required to comply with Section 409A of the Code; and

• all other outstanding awards that are unexercisable, unvested, or still subject to restrictions or forfeiture will automatically be deemed exercisable and vested, and all restrictions and forfeiture provisions related thereto will lapse as of the date of such termination, and the award will be paid out as soon as practicable following such date of termination or such later date as may be required to comply with Section 409A of the Code.

**2020 Plan.** Our 2020 Plan provides that, in the event of an "acquisition" or "other combination" (each, as defined in our 2020 Plan), awards may be continued, assumed, substituted, settled by payment (in cash or securities of the surviving corporation or its parent) of the full value of the award, accelerated (in full or in part), or canceled without consideration, and awards would terminate upon the consummation of the acquisition or other combination unless they are continued, assumed, or substituted. Our Board, in its sole discretion, may provide for the accelerated vesting of awards.

**2013 Plan**. Our 2013 Plan provides that, in the event of a "corporate transaction" (as defined in our 2013 Plan), awards may be continued, assumed, substituted, or terminated without consideration (provided that a participant is given an opportunity to exercise vested stock options prior to the consummation of the transaction), or settled by payment (in cash, securities, or other property) for a payment equal to the per-share value in the transaction, multiplied by the number of vested shares subject to the stock option minus the aggregate exercise price. Our Board, in its sole discretion, may provide for the accelerated vesting and exercisability, in whole or in part, of awards in connection with a corporate transaction.

**ESPP**. Our ESPP (as defined below) provides that in the event of a merger or "change in control" (as defined in our ESPP), a successor corporation may assume or substitute each outstanding purchase right. If the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute the outstanding purchase rights or in the event of our proposed dissolution or liquidation, the offering period then in progress will be shortened, and a new purchase date will be set that will be before the date of such change in control. The administrator will notify each participant that the purchase date has been changed and that the participant's purchase right will be exercised automatically on the new purchase date unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the offering period.

<sup>(1)</sup> Under our policy, the value of death and disability equity award acceleration is capped at $10.0 million. For executives with both options and RSUs outstanding, this table allocates available capacity first to options and then to RSUs, but the policy does not specify an order.

<sup>(2)</sup> This scenario assumes that outstanding equity awards would be substituted, assumed, or otherwise continued following the change in control transaction. If awards under the 2021 Plan were not substituted, assumed, or otherwise continued following the change in control transaction (that is, if such awards were to be terminated in connection with the transaction), they would generally accelerate and become fully vested. In these cases, the value of the accelerated equity award vesting would, for each NEO and assuming that the change in control and termination of the awards occurred on December 31, 2025, be the same as the accelerated vesting value for the NEO reported in the "RSU Acceleration" and "Stock Option Acceleration" rows under the column "Change in Control: Termination by the Company without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason." In those circumstances, there would be no additional accelerated vesting value with respect to such equity awards in connection with a severance event to the extent the awards accelerated upon the change in control event.

<sup>(3)</sup> This row reports the intrinsic value of the unvested portions of the executive's RSUs that would accelerate in the scenarios described above. This value is calculated by multiplying $113.10 (the closing price of our Class A common stock as reported by Nasdaq on December 31, 2025, the hypothetical acceleration date) by the number of units subject to the accelerated portion of the award.

<sup>(4)</sup> This row reports the intrinsic value of the portions of the executive's unvested stock options that would accelerate in the scenarios described above. This value is calculated by multiplying (a) the amount by which $113.10 (the closing price of our Class A common stock as reported by Nasdaq on December 31, 2025, the hypothetical acceleration date) exceeds the exercise price of the option by (b) the number of shares subject to the accelerated portion of the option.

<sup>(5)</sup> These health benefit continuation payments would be adjusted to provide the amount shown above on an after-tax basis, calculated at the time of an applicable termination.

CEO Pay Ratio

Pursuant to a mandate of the Dodd-Frank Act, companies are generally required to disclose the ratio of their median employee's annual total compensation to the annual total compensation of the CEO.

For purposes of making this required disclosure, we conducted an analysis to identify Robinhood's median employee as of December 31, 2025, the final day of fiscal year 2025. As of that date:

• Robinhood employed 2,958 persons, all of whom were regular full-time employees; and

• 2,606 of our employees were in North America, 337 were in Europe, and 15 were in Asia.

From this population, we identified the median employee based on each employee's total direct compensation for 2025, which includes annual base salary (or, for non-salaried employees, hourly rate multiplied by their 2025 working schedule), 2025 target bonus and accounting value of any 2025 equity awards. For employees who were hired during 2025, we made an estimate of their annualized cash compensation for the analysis using their year-end pay rate and target annual bonus.

We did not make any other assumptions, adjustments (such as cost-of-living adjustments), or estimates for purposes of determining total cash compensation (except that local currencies were converted to U.S. Dollars using the exchange rates that we use for internal accounting purposes). For simplicity, in determining our median employee, the value of the Company's 401(k) plan and medical benefits was excluded because all employees, including the CEO, are generally offered comparable benefits.

After identifying the median employee for 2025 as described above, we calculated the annual total compensation for such employee for 2025 using the same methodology we use to determine the total compensation of our NEOs as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table included in this proxy statement.

• Mr. Tenev's annual total compensation for 2025 was $3,004,978, as reported in the Summary Compensation Table included in this proxy statement.

• Our median employee's annual total compensation for 2025 was $194,162.

• For 2025, Mr. Tenev's annual total compensation was approximately 15.5 times that of our median employee.

This ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our payroll and employment records and the methodology described above. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee's annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices. Therefore, the pay ratio reported by other companies might not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may use different methodologies, exclusions, estimates, and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.

Pay Versus Performance

As required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act, and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship between executive compensation "actually paid" and certain measures of Company financial performance. The figures shown below are disclosed in the manner required by SEC rules, but in certain cases, particularly with respect to the valuation of equity awards, the values do not correspond to the actual economic benefit received by the applicable executives upon receipt of the applicable compensation. For further information concerning the Company's executive compensation, see "Executive Compensation–Compensation Discussion and Analysis."

|  | &nbsp;&nbsp;**What does "pay versus performance" mean?** |
| SEC rules require that companies show the relationship between compensation "actually paid" to executives and a company's financial performance. Compensation "actually paid" is calculated using special formula prescribed by the SEC. It is calculated based on the "total compensation" figure included in the proxy statement's Summary Compensation Table, but uses a different approach to valuing equity awards granted. Because "total compensation" is calculated using the accounting value of an equity award at the grant or modification date, it provides a valuation only as of the grant or modification of the award, whereas the compensation "actually paid" formula is intended to illustrate how the value of an executive's aggregate equity awards may change within a reported year, measured based on market value overtime. Companies that pay dividends on their shares or provide pension benefits to their executives will reflect additional adjustments. Neither "total compensation" nor compensation "actually paid" reflects the amount of compensation that an executive will actually take home in a given year, which depends on many factors like timing and performance requirements for equity awards to vest. | SEC rules require that companies show the relationship between compensation "actually paid" to executives and a company's financial performance.

<sup>(6)</sup> Represents the weighted peer group TSR value as of each measurement date (December 31, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021) of an initial investment of $100 in a custom peer group index from July 29, 2021 (i.e., the date of our IPO), weighted according to the respective companies' stock market capitalization as of the date of our IPO. The peer group used for this purpose is the following published industry index: KBW Nasdaq Financial Technology Index.

<sup>(7)</sup> The dollar amounts represent the amount of net income reflected in the Company's audited financial statements for the applicable year.

<sup>(8)</sup> Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) interest expenses related to credit facilities, (ii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based compensation, (v) change in fair value of convertible notes and warrant liability, (vi) significant legal and tax settlements and reserves, and (vii) other significant gains, losses, and expenses (such as impairments, restructuring charges, and business acquisition or disposition-related expenses), that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing results.

**Financial Performance Measures**

As described in greater detail in "Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis," the Company's executive compensation program reflects a pay-for-performance philosophy. The metrics that the Company uses for both our long-term and short-term incentive awards are selected based on an objective of incentivizing our NEOs to increase the value of the Company. The most important financial performance measures used by the Company to link executive compensation actually paid to the Company's NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to the Company's performance are as follows:

• Stock Price

• Adjusted EBITDA

• Total Net Revenues

**Compensation Actually Paid and Performance**

While the Company uses numerous financial and non-financial performance measures for the purpose of evaluating performance for the Company's executive compensation programs, the Company has determined that Adjusted EBITDA is the financial performance measure that, in the Company's assessment, represents the most important performance measure (that is not otherwise required to be disclosed in the table) used by the Company to link compensation "actually paid" to the Company's NEOs, for the most recently completed fiscal year, to Company performance. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, as well as providing a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance.

![02 PRO013634_icon_proposal3.jpg](hood-20260422_g141.jpg)<br>Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm<br>

We are asking our stockholders to ratify the Audit Committee's appointment of Ernst & Young LLP ("EY") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

EY has served as the Company's external auditor continuously since 2017 and has been appointed by the Audit Committee to continue as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for 2026. The members of the Audit Committee and the Board believe that the continued retention of EY to serve as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Representatives of EY will be present at the annual meeting. The representatives will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

| Proposal 3 — Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm | **101** |

---

Overview

The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, and oversight of the independent registered public accounting firm retained to audit the Company's financial statements. In order to assure continuing auditor independence and objectivity, the Audit Committee intends to periodically consider whether there should be a rotation of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm.

Although ratification of the appointment of EY is not required by our Organizational Documents or applicable law, the Audit Committee and the Board believe it is a good corporate governance practice to request stockholder ratification of the Audit Committee's appointment of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. In the event that ratification of this appointment is not approved by stockholders, the Audit Committee will consider this fact in connection with its future appointment of an independent registered public accounting firm. Even if this appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Audit and Non-Audit Fees

Set forth below are approximate fees for services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

| Tax Fees<sup>(2)</sup> | 558 | 243 |
| All Other Fees<sup>(3)</sup> | 2 | 2 |
| Total | $11791 | $10240 |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> "Audit Fees" consist of fees in connection with professional services rendered in connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements, reviews of our quarterly consolidated financial statements, and related accounting consultations and services that are normally provided by the independent registered public accountants in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years.

<sup>(2)</sup> "Tax Fees" consist of fees in connection with domestic and international tax advisory services and domestic tax compliance services.

<sup>(3)</sup> "All Other Fees" consist of subscription fees to an online accounting information database.

**Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Services Performed by the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures regarding pre-approval of permitted audit and non-audit services. Each year, and as needed at other times during the year, (1) the independent registered public accounting firm will submit to the Audit Committee for approval the terms, fees, and conditions of the Company's engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm to perform an integrated audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements, to attest to the Company's internal control over financial reporting for the applicable fiscal year, and to review the Company's interim financial statements; and (2) management or the independent registered public accounting firm will submit to the Audit Committee for approval a written pre-approval request of any additional audit and non-audit services to be performed for the Company during the year, including a budgeted range of fees for each category of service outlined in such request. The Audit Committee has designated the Audit Committee Chair to have the authority to pre-approve interim requests for permissible services that were not contemplated in the engagement letter or in pre-approval requests. The Audit Committee Chair may approve or reject any interim service requests and shall report any interim service pre-approvals at the next regular Audit Committee meeting.

All services provided to the Company by EY during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

Audit Committee Report

Management is responsible for the Company's internal controls and the financial reporting process. Ernst & Young LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, is responsible for performing an independent audit of our consolidated financial statements and expressing an opinion on the conformity of those financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and for performing an independent audit of our internal control over financial reporting and expressing an opinion thereon. The Audit Committee's responsibility is to monitor and oversee these processes.

The Audit Committee's agenda is established by the Audit Committee's chair and senior members of the Company's financial management team. During 2025, the Audit Committee reviewed the audit scope and plans for both internal and external auditors. In addition, the Audit Committee met with representatives of Ernst & Young LLP, the senior members of the Company's financial management team, and the Company's head of internal audit in separate private sessions to discuss any matters that the Audit Committee, Ernst & Young LLP, the head of internal audit, or senior members of the Company's financial management team believed should be discussed privately with the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management and Ernst & Young LLP the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2025 Form 10-K. Management represented to the Audit Committee that the Company's consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

The Audit Committee has discussed with Ernst & Young LLP the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 16, Communications with Audit Committees. Ernst & Young LLP also provided to the Audit Committee the written disclosures and the letter required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent registered public accounting firm's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence. The Audit Committee discussed with Ernst & Young LLP that firm's independence and considered whether the non-audit services provided by Ernst & Young LLP are compatible with maintaining their independence.

Based on the Audit Committee's discussions with management and Ernst & Young LLP, and the Audit Committee's review of the Company's audited consolidated financial statements, representations of management, and the report of Ernst & Young LLP to the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee recommended that the Board include the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2025 Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Beneficial Ownership of Principal Stockholders and Management<sup>+</sup>

The following table presents the number of shares of our common stock that were beneficially owned as of April 8, 2026 (except where another date is noted), by (1) known beneficial owners of 5% or more of our common stock, (2) each current director and director nominee, (3) each NEO, and (4) all current directors and current executive officers of the Company as a group.

As required by SEC rules, this table considers shares to be beneficially owned by a listed person if such person has voting power or investment power over the shares (and regardless of whether such person has an economic interest in the shares).

<sup>(2)</sup> As of April 8, 2026, we had outstanding 791,086,666 shares of Class A common stock, 109,745,620 shares of Class B common stock, and zero shares of Class C common stock. We have no other classes of stock outstanding. For each person and group listed in the table, percentage ownership of any class of stock is calculated by dividing the number of shares of such class beneficially owned by such person or group as described above by the sum of (a) the shares of such class outstanding on April 8, 2026, plus (b) the number of shares of common stock that such person or group had the right to acquire from the Company within 60 days as described above. Each outstanding share of Class B common stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into one share of Class A common stock; however, to avoid double counting and for ease of presentation, Class B shares are presented only under the Class B column header (and not also under the Class A column header).

<sup>(3)</sup> Each holder of our Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share and each holder of our Class B common stock is entitled to ten votes per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders. The holders of our voting stock, consisting of Class A and Class B common stock, generally vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, unless otherwise required by applicable law or our Charter. In the table above, percentage of voting power is calculated by attributing beneficial ownership of shares based only on voting power (not based on investment power), and by including shares over which each person or group has the right to acquire voting power within 60 days after April 8, 2026 (or such other date as is indicated below). For each person and group, percentage of voting power is calculated by dividing the number of votes represented by the shares beneficially owned (based on voting power only) by such person or group by the sum of the number of votes represented by all outstanding shares on April 8, 2026, plus the number of votes represented by the shares that such person or group had the right to acquire from the Company within 60 days after April 8, 2026.

<sup>(4)</sup> Mr. Tenev's beneficial ownership consists of (a) 6,907 Class A shares held by The Tenev Living Trust, over which shares Mr. Tenev and his spouse share voting and investment power; (b) 48,669,572 Class B shares held by Mr. Tenev; and (c) 565,079 Class B shares held by the Bhatt Family LLC, over which shares Mr. Tenev has sole voting power, Mr. Bhatt's spouse has sole investment power, and Mr. Bhatt has a right to obtain sole investment power within 60 days after April 8, 2026. Note that the shares in clause (c) are beneficially owned by both Mr. Tenev and Mr. Bhatt and, therefore, are included in both of their rows above. Mr. Tenev has voting power over the shares described in clause (c) pursuant to an irrevocable proxy granted by the recordholder of such shares (which recordholder is an entity related to Mr. Bhatt) under the Founders' Voting Agreement, but does not have an economic interest in such shares.

<sup>(5)</sup> All of the shares presented for Mr. Bhatt and Mr. Tenev are (or upon issuance will be) subject to the Founders' Voting Agreement between Mr. Tenev, Mr. Bhatt, and their related entities, as further described below under "Other Matters—Voting Agreements." All of the shares that are subject to the Founders' Voting Agreement appear in this table because each of them is subject to the voting power of one or the other of Mr. Tenev or Mr. Bhatt. Parties to the Founders' Voting Agreement may be deemed to constitute a group for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) under the Exchange Act. Except as set forth in footnotes (4) and (10), each of Mr. Tenev and Mr. Bhatt, respectively, has neither voting nor investment power over the securities beneficially owned by other parties to the Founders' Voting Agreement and disclaims beneficial ownership of such securities.

<sup>(6)</sup> Mr. Quirk's beneficial ownership includes (a) 61,723 Class A shares held in his name; and (b) 71,176 Class A shares underlying RSUs scheduled to vest and settle within 60 days after April 8, 2026.

<sup>(7)</sup> Mr. Gallagher's beneficial ownership includes (a) 442,849 Class A shares held in his name; (b) 90,300 Class A shares underlying stock options exercisable within 60 days after April 8, 2026; and (c) 112,856 Class A shares underlying RSUs scheduled to vest and settle within 60 days after April 8, 2026.

In addition, on November 21, 2025, Mr. Malka entered into a variable prepaid forward sale contract with an unaffiliated third party dealer with respect to 1,000,000 Class A shares (the "VPF Transaction") held by Lassen Residential LLC. The contract obligates Mr. Malka to deliver to the dealer up to 1,000,000 Class A shares (or, at Mr. Malka's election, an equivalent amount of cash based on the market price of Class A shares) in November 2027. In exchange for assuming this obligation, Mr. Malka may elect to receive cash payment during the term of the contract of up to approximately $89.3 million. Mr. Malka pledged 1,000,000 shares of Class A shares (the "Pledged Shares") to secure his obligations under the contract, and retained dividend and voting rights in the Pledged Shares during the term of the pledge. The number of Class A shares to be delivered (or amount of cash to be paid) to the buyer on the maturity date is to be determined as follows: (a) if the volume-weighted average price of Class A shares on the valuation date (the "Settlement Price") is less than or equal to $97.15 (the "Initial Share Price"), Mr. Malka will deliver to the buyer all of the Pledged Shares; (b) if the Settlement Price is between the Initial Share Price and $149.51 (the "Cap Price"), Mr. Malka will deliver to the buyer a number of Class A shares having a value (based on the then market price) equal to approximately $97.2 million; and (c) if the Settlement Price is greater than the Cap Price, Mr. Malka will deliver to the buyer a number of Class A shares equal to 1,000,000 multiplied by the sum of (i) $97.15 and (ii) the excess of the Settlement Price minus $149.51, divided by the Settlement Price.

<sup>(20)</sup> Beneficial ownership information for BlackRock, Inc. is as of September 30, 2025, and is based on information contained in their Schedule 13G/A, filed with the SEC on October 17, 2025.

BlackRock, Inc.'s address is 50 Hudson Yards, New York, NY 10001.

<sup>+</sup> We believe that certain subsidiaries or business divisions of subsidiaries of The Vanguard Group collectively own approximately 94,436,459 Class A shares (11.9%).

That Schedule 13G/A further reported that "In accordance with SEC Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998), certain subsidiaries or business divisions of subsidiaries of The Vanguard Group, Inc., that formerly had, or were deemed to have, beneficial ownership with The Vanguard Group, Inc., will report beneficial ownership separately (on a disaggregated basis) from The Vanguard Group, Inc. in reliance on such release. These subsidiaries and/or business divisions pursue the same investment strategies as previously pursued by The Vanguard Group, Inc. prior to the realignment. Further in accordance with SEC Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998), The Vanguard Group, Inc. no longer has, or is deemed to have, beneficial ownership over securities beneficially owned by such subsidiaries and/or business divisions." While as of April 17, 2026, no Vanguard subsidiaries or business divisions have reported beneficial ownership separately from The Vanguard Group, the last Schedule 13G/A filed by the Vanguard Group with the SEC on October 6, 2025 reported that, as of September 30, 2025, The Vanguard Group had sole voting power over 0 Class A shares, shared voting power over 4,547,474 Class A shares, sole investment power over 87,149,074 Class A shares, shared investment power over 7,287,385 Class A shares and beneficially owned 94,436,459 Class A shares in the aggregate (approximately 11.9% of Class A shares based on 791,086,666 Class A shares outstanding as of April 8, 2026).

<sup>(1)</sup> Includes 3,033,979 shares subject to outstanding stock option awards, 7,646,387 shares subject to outstanding RSUs, and 103,165 shares subject to vested but unsettled RSUs, in each case, as of December 31, 2025.

<sup>(2)</sup> Calculated exclusive of outstanding RSUs and PSUs, which have no exercise price.

<sup>(3)</sup> Of these shares, 307,641,382 were available for grant under the 2021 Plan and 44,906,091 were available for purchase under the ESPP as of December 31, 2025. Subject to certain express limits of the 2021 Plan, shares available under the 2021 Plan generally may be used for any type of award authorized under that plan including options, RSUs, PSUs, SARs, restricted stock awards, and other forms of awards granted or denominated in shares of our Class A common stock or units of our Class A common stock. Shares underlying full-value awards count against the share reserves on a one-for-one basis (there are no fungible share ratios under our equity plans). Shares underlying awards that are forfeited or canceled or that otherwise fail to vest, as well as vested shares that are withheld for taxes, under the 2013 Plan, the 2020 Plan, or the 2021 Plan, will return to the 2021 Plan and will thereby increase the number of shares available for grant under the 2021 Plan.

The number of shares available for grant under the 2021 Plan will automatically increase on the first day of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2022, and ending on (and including) January 1, 2031. Each annual increase will equal (i) 5% of the outstanding shares of all classes of our common stock on the last day of the immediately preceding year or (ii) such lesser number of shares determined by the People Committee. For 2026, the People Committee approved the full 5% increase and, as a result, an additional 45,066,396 shares became available under the 2021 Plan on January 1, 2026.

The number of shares available for purchase under the ESPP will automatically increase on the first day of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2022, and ending on (and including) January 1, 2031. Each annual increase will equal (i) 1% of the outstanding shares of all classes of our common stock on the last day of the immediately preceding year or (ii) such lesser number of shares determined by the People Committee. For 2026, the People Committee approved the full 1% increase and, as a result, an additional 9,013,279 shares became available under the ESPP on January 1, 2026.

Voting Agreements

**Founders' Voting Agreement**

In connection with our IPO, our Co-Founders and some of their related entities (including estate planning vehicles) entered into a voting agreement, which became effective prior to the completion of our IPO (the "Founders' Voting Agreement"), to which we are also a party. Pursuant to the Founders' Voting Agreement, each of the Co-Founders and their related entities that are party to the Founders' Voting Agreement (including entities made party by joinder, "Founder Affiliates") agreed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, among other things:

• to vote all of their shares of common stock in favor of the election of each Co-Founder to, and against the removal of each Co-Founder from, our Board;

• to vote together in the election of other directors generally, subject to deferring to the decision of the NomGov Committee in the event of any disagreement between the Co-Founders; and

• to ensure that all of their shares are voted as described above, including causing their shares to be present in person or by proxy for purposes of constituting a quorum at the meeting of stockholders (including at this annual meeting).

Under the Founders' Voting Agreement, some of the Founder Affiliates have granted an irrevocable proxy to one of the Co-Founders to vote their shares of common stock (some Founder Affiliates granted proxies to their related Co-Founder, other Founder Affiliates granted proxies to the other, unrelated Co-Founder). The proxies that are currently in effect under the Founders' Voting Agreement are described above in the section "Beneficial Ownership of Principal Stockholders and Management."

Pursuant to the Founders' Voting Agreement, each Co-Founder has granted, effective upon such Co-Founder's death or permanent and total disability, a voting proxy to the other Co-Founder with respect to shares of our common stock held by such Co-Founder and over which such Co-Founder was entitled to vote (or direct the voting of) immediately prior to such Co-Founder's death or permanent and total disability.

The Co-Founders' Voting Agreement also grants to each Co-Founder and his respective Founder Affiliates a right of first offer in the event the other Co-Founder or any of his respective Founder Affiliates proposes to transfer any shares of Class B common stock in a transaction that would cause such shares of Class B common stock to convert to Class A common stock pursuant to our Charter; provided, however, that such right of first offer does not apply to the first 20 million Class B shares in the aggregate converted or transferred by each Co-Founder or his respective Founder Affiliates. Through April 8, 2026, Mr. Bhatt and his related Founder Affiliates had so converted or transferred approximately 13.2 million shares, and Mr. Tenev and his related Founder Affiliates had so converted or transferred approximately 13.4 million shares.

The Founders' Voting Agreement will remain in effect until all Class B shares have converted into Class A shares.

The Founders' Voting Agreement is included as an exhibit to our 2025 Form 10-K.

**Pre-IPO Voting Agreement (no longer in effect)**

We were party to a Voting Agreement, which was originally entered into on August 22, 2014, and was most recently amended and restated as of August 13, 2020 (as amended, the "Pre-IPO Voting Agreement"), pursuant to which many of our investors, including entities affiliated with Ribbit Capital, among others, agreed to the manner in which they would vote their shares on various matters, including the election of directors. Most of our pre-IPO directors were originally elected to the Board in accordance with this agreement, including Mr. Rubinstein, Mr. Zoellick, and Ms. Loop. The Pre-IPO Voting Agreement terminated upon the completion of our IPO and no longer governs any aspect of the election or designation of members of our Board or the voting of our capital stock.

Related Person Transaction Policy

Our Board has adopted a written related person transaction policy, setting forth the policies and procedures for the identification, review, and approval or ratification of related person transactions. This policy covers, with certain exceptions, any financial transaction, arrangement, or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements, or relationships, in which we were or are to be a participant, where the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

In reviewing and approving or disapproving any such transactions, the Audit Committee considers all relevant facts and circumstances as it deems appropriate, including, but not limited to:

• the business reasons for the Company to enter into the related person transaction;

• the commercial reasonableness of the terms of the related person transaction;

• the materiality of the related person transaction to the Company;

• whether the terms of the related person transaction are fair to the Company and on substantially the same basis as would apply if the transaction did not involve a related person;

• the extent of the related person's interest in the related person transaction;

• if applicable, the impact of the related person transaction on a non-employee director's independence; and

• any actual or apparent conflict of interest of the related person participating in the related person transaction.

This policy became effective on August 2, 2021, upon the closing of the IPO and provided that all related person transactions described in the IPO prospectus (including all of those below) were deemed approved.

**Convertible Note and Warrant Financings**

In February 2021 we issued two tranches of convertible notes, including $2,532.0 million aggregate principal amount of "Tranche I" convertible notes and granted to each purchaser of the Tranche I convertible notes a warrant to purchase a number of shares of equity securities equal to 15% of the aggregate proceeds invested by such purchaser in the Tranche I convertible notes (i.e., $379.8 million in aggregate maximum purchase amount). Such warrants became exercisable in connection with the closing of our IPO and, until the tenth anniversary of their issue date, outstanding warrants will be exercisable for shares of our Class A common stock at an exercise price of $26.60. The following table summarizes purchases of our Tranche I convertible notes by Bullfrog Capital, L.P. and RH-N Bullfrog Opportunity I, LLC. Mr. Malka, who joined our Board in March 2022, is affiliated with Bullfrog Capital, L.P. and RH-N Bullfrog Opportunity I, LLC. None of our executive officers purchased our Tranche I convertible notes or related warrants.

**Issuer Agreements**

On February 27, 2025, in connection with pledges by each of Bullfrog Capital, L.P. and RH-N Bullfrog Opportunity I, LLC, funds (each, a "Ribbit Investor") affiliated with Mr. Malka and Ribbit Capital, of warrants to purchase up to 2,828,430 shares of our Class A common stock pursuant to put spread collar hedging arrangements (the "Contracts") between each Ribbit Investor and Bank of America, N.A. ("Dealer") with respect to such warrants, the Company entered into issuer agreements by and among the Company, Dealer and each Ribbit Investor (each, an "Issuer Agreement"). Mr. Malka is a director of the Company and the Founding and Managing Partner of Ribbit Capital. In each Issuer Agreement, the Company, among other matters, provided for certain acknowledgments and agreements relating to the enforcement of the rights and remedies of Dealer under the related put spread collar hedging arrangement and pledge documents. The warrants were issued to the Ribbit Investors in the transactions described in "Transactions with Related Persons—Convertible Note and Warrant Financings" above. Pursuant to the Contracts, which include an initial hedge period beginning on February 27, 2025, the Ribbit Investors (i) sold 2,828,430 European put options on our Class A common stock with a strike price equal to the $26.60 exercise price of the warrants (the "Warrant Strike Price"), (ii) purchased 2,828,430 European put options on our Class A common stock with a strike price of $46.74 and (iii) sold 2,828,430 European call options on our Class A common stock with a strike price of $171.31. The Contracts are expected to mature on one or more expiration dates, on or before, February 12, 2031.

**Voting Agreement**

*Founders' Voting Agreement*. In connection with our IPO, we entered into the Founders' Voting Agreement with our Co-Founders and certain of their respective related entities, as described in "Other Matters—Voting Agreements" above.

**Indemnification Agreements**

Prior to our IPO, we were party to indemnification agreements with Mr. Tenev and Mr. Bhatt. Upon and after our IPO, we entered into new forms of indemnification agreement with each of our directors and executive officers, which superseded the applicable prior agreements. These new agreements require us to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. In March 2022, in connection with his appointment to the Board, we entered into a new indemnification agreement (the "VC Indemnification Agreement") with Mr. Malka, who is a director of ours and the Founder and Managing Partner of Ribbit Capital (which together with its affiliates held more than 5% of the Company's outstanding common stock at the time of the IPO until it reported that it held 5% or less of the Company's outstanding common stock as of December 31, 2024). The VC Indemnification Agreement provides that, among other things, Ribbit Capital and its respective affiliates will be entitled to indemnification by us to the same extent as such director with respect to any claims that are based on such director's service to us and also incorporates certain provisions from the standard form of indemnification agreement relating to advancement of expenses and eliminates certain exceptions to indemnification. These forms of indemnification agreement are included as exhibits to our 2025 Form 10-K.

**Class B Exchange Agreements**

In connection with the IPO, we entered into two separate equity exchange right agreements with our Co-Founders and certain of their respective related entities, as described in more detail under "Corporate Governance—Stockholder Structure—Class B Exchange Agreements" elsewhere in this proxy statement.

**Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation**

Ms. Segal, Mr. Malka, Mr. Payne, and Ms. Treseder served on the People Committee during 2025. None of them had any related person transactions requiring disclosure herein under Item 404 of Regulation S-K other than Mr. Malka because entities affiliated with Mr. Malka participated in the convertible note and warrant financings in 2021 and the Issuer Agreements in 2025. No person who served as a member of the People Committee during 2025 was an officer or employee of the Company or a former officer of the Company. During 2025, no executive officer of the Company served as a director or member of the compensation committee of another company, one of whose executive officers served on our People Committee or Board.

Legal Proceedings Involving Directors and Executive Officers

**IPO Litigation**

In December 2021, Philip Golubowski filed a putative class action in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against RHM, the officers and directors who signed Robinhood's IPO offering documents, and Robinhood's IPO underwriters. Plaintiff's claims are based on alleged false or misleading statements in Robinhood's IPO offering documents allegedly in violation of Sections 11 and 12(a) of the Securities Act of 1933. Plaintiff seeks unspecified compensatory damages, rescission of shareholders' share purchases, and an award for attorneys' fees and costs. In February 2022, certain alleged Robinhood stockholders submitted applications seeking appointment by the court to be the lead plaintiff to represent the putative class in this matter, and in March 2022, the court appointed lead plaintiffs. In June 2022, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. In August 2022, Robinhood filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. In February 2023, the court granted Robinhood's motion without prejudice. In March 2023, plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint. In January 2024, the court granted Robinhood's motion to dismiss the second amended complaint without leave to amend. In February 2024, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to the Ninth Circuit. On August 29, 2025, the Ninth Circuit issued its opinion affirming in part and reversing in part the district court. Robinhood's petition for rehearing en banc was denied. In December 2025, Robinhood requested an extension of time to file its petition for a writ of certiorari in the United States Supreme Court.

In January 2022, Robert Zito filed a complaint derivatively on behalf of Robinhood against Robinhood's directors at the time of its IPO in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. Plaintiff alleges breach of fiduciary duties, waste of corporate assets, unjust enrichment, and violations of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act. Plaintiff's claims are based on allegations of false or misleading statements in Robinhood's IPO offering documents, and plaintiff seeks an award of unspecified damages and restitution to the Company, injunctive relief, and an award for attorney's fees and costs. In March 2022, the district court entered a stay of this litigation pending resolution of Robinhood's motion to dismiss in the Golubowski securities action discussed above.

Appendix <br> 

**Definition of Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income

We collect and analyze operating and financial data to evaluate the health of our business, allocate our resources and assess our performance. In addition to total net revenues, net income (loss), and other results under GAAP, we utilize non-GAAP calculations of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), excluding (i) interest expenses related to credit facilities, (ii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, (iv) share-based compensation ("SBC"), (v) change in fair value of convertible notes and warrant liability, (vi) significant legal and tax settlements and reserves, and (vii) other significant gains, losses, and expenses (such as impairments, restructuring charges, and business acquisition- or disposition-related expenses) that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing results. This non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature, or because the amount and timing of these items are unpredictable, are not driven by core results of operations, and render comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, as well as providing a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Moreover, Adjusted EBITDA is a key measurement used by our management internally to make operating decisions, including those related to operating expenses, evaluate performance, and perform strategic planning and annual budgeting.

We also used adjusted net income as part of our 2025 annual cash incentive program. Adjusted net income for this purpose is calculated from the Company's audited financial statements as net income (loss), excluding significant legal and tax settlements and reserves.

The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, net income (loss):

<sup>(1)</sup> For the year ended December 31, 2022, SBC excluding a $485 million charge related to cancellation of the 2021 Market-Based RSUs (the "2021 Founders Award Cancellation") benefited from restructuring-related net reversals of previously recognized expense of $77 million in connection with a reduction in force announced on April 26, 2022 (the "April 2022 Restructuring") and another one announced on August 2, 2022 (the "August 2022 Restructuring").

<sup>(2)</sup> For the year ended December 31, 2024, significant legal and tax settlements and reserves included a $55 million benefit due to a reversal of an accrual as part of a regulatory settlement.

<sup>(3)</sup> Restructuring charges for the year ended December 31, 2022 related to both the April 2022 Restructuring and August 2022 Restructuring, consisting of $45 million of impairment and $9 million of accelerated depreciation, in each case relating to office closures, and $51 million of cash charges for employee-related wages, benefits and severance.

<sup>(4)</sup> Q4 2022 Processing Error was due to delays in notification from third parties and process failures within Robinhood's brokerage systems and operations in connection with the handling of a 1-for-25 reverse stock split transaction of Cosmos Health, Inc.

<sup>(5)</sup> Partially as a result of the termination of the stock purchase agreement, the advances made to Ziglu accounted for as non-marketable equity securities were impaired to a carrying value of zero.

<sup>(6)</sup> For the year ended December 31, 2025, unrealized gains in non-marketable equity securities primarily related to investments held by Robinhood Ventures Fund I.

**Definitions of Key Performance Metrics**

This proxy statement includes certain key performance metrics that our management uses to help evaluate our business, identify trends affecting our business, formulate business plans, and make strategic decisions. These key performance metrics include Funded Customers, Net Deposits, Total Platform Assets, Assets Under Custody, and Gold Subscribers.

Funded Customers

We define a Funded Customer as a unique person who has at least one account with a Robinhood entity and, within the past 45 calendar days (a) had an account balance that was greater than zero (excluding amounts that are deposited into a Funded Customer account by the Company with no action taken by the unique person) or (b) completed a transaction using any such account. Individuals who share a funded joint investing account (which launched in July 2024) are each considered to be a Funded Customer. Starting in Q1 2025, individuals who are customers of RIAs that use the TradePMR platform, and, starting in June 2025, customers of Bitstamp, are also considered Funded Customers.

Net Deposits

We define Net Deposits as all cash deposits and asset transfers from customers, as well as dividends, interest, staking rewards, and cash or assets earned in connection with Company promotions (such as account transfer and retirement match incentives, free stock bonuses) received by customers, net of reversals, customer cash withdrawals, margin and lending interest, Robinhood Gold subscription fees, and assets transferred off of our platforms for a stated period. Starting in June 2025, Net Deposits include results from Bitstamp. Due to data limitations, we have not included TradePMR client figures in our Net Deposits key performance metric.

Total Platform Assets

We define Total Platform Assets as the sum of the fair value of all equities, options, cryptocurrency, futures (including options on futures and swaps, including event contracts), cash held by users in their accounts, net of receivables from users (previously reported as Assets Under Custody), and any such assets managed by RIAs using TradePMR's platform that are not custodied by Robinhood, as of a stated date or period end on a trade date basis. Net Deposits and net market gains (losses) drive the change in Total Platform Assets in any given period. Starting in June 2025, the fair value of all cryptocurrency includes cryptocurrency on Bitstamp. Total Platform Assets also include cryptocurrency lent through

platform-enabled lending programs, where customers may recall such assets at any time through the platform.

Assets Under Custody ("AUC")

We define AUC as Total Platform Assets, excluding assets managed by RIAs using TradePMR's platform that are not custodied by Robinhood, as of a stated date or period end on a trade date basis.

Gold Subscribers

We define a Gold Subscriber as a unique person who has at least one account with a Robinhood entity and who, as of the end of the relevant period (a) is subscribed to Robinhood Gold and (b) has made at least one Robinhood Gold subscription fee payment.

**Other Glossary Terms**

International Net Funded Accounts

We define an International Net Funded Account as a unique person outside of the U.S. who has at least one account with a Robinhood entity and, within the past 45 calendar days (a) had an account balance that was greater than zero (excluding amounts that are deposited into a Funded Customer account by the Company with no action taken by the unique person) or (b) completed a transaction using any such account.

Event Contracts Traded

We define Event Contracts Traded as the total number of event contracts bought or sold over a specified period of time through our Prediction Markets Hub. Each contract can be traded at $0.01 increments up to $1 and is worth $1 upon settlement.

Robinhood Retirement AUC

We define Robinhood Retirement AUC as the total Assets Under Custody in traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs. This does not include accounts with an RIA using TradePMR's platform.

**Additional Information**

The reference to "Great Wealth Transfer" in the letter from our Chair and CEO on page [1](#if1b52c7b1ffd40b2aff1c6ee90275ea7_22) comes from the estimate reported by Cerulli Associates in December 2024 (**<u>https://www.cerulli.com/press-releases/cerulli-anticipates-124-trillion-in-wealth-will-transfer-through-2048</u>**).
