We caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all of the forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Forward-looking statements are based on our management's beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including risks described in the section titled "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other sections of this Annual Report on Form 10-K may include additional factors that could harm our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ from those contained in, or implied by, any forward-looking statements.

You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We cannot assure you that the events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this report or to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations. You should read this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the documents that we reference in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and have filed as exhibits to this report with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance, and achievements may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.

Investors and others should note that we may announce material business and financial information to our investors using our investor relations website (investors.snowflake.com), our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), webcasts, press releases, and conference calls. We use these forms of media, including our website, as well as social media, including certain X and LinkedIn accounts held and/or managed by us or our executive officers, to communicate with investors and the general public about our company, our products, and other issues. It is possible that the information we make available on our website or social media may be deemed to be material information. We therefore encourage investors and others interested in our company to review the information we make available on our website and social media.

**SELECTED RISKS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS**

Investing in our common stock involves numerous risks, including those set forth below. This summary does not contain all of the information that may be important to you, and you should read this summary together with the more detailed discussion of risks and uncertainties set forth in the section titled "Risk Factors" included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Below is a summary of some of these risks, any one of which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. In that event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our business. You should not interpret our disclosure of any of the following risks to imply that such risks have not already materialized.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We have experienced rapid revenue growth and have a limited operating history, both of which make it difficult to forecast our future results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not have visibility into our future financial position and results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We have a history of operating losses and may not achieve or sustain profitability in the future.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The markets in which we operate are highly competitive, and if we do not compete effectively, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be harmed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If we fail to innovate in response to changing customer needs, new technologies, or other market requirements, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be harmed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If we are not successful in executing an effective AI strategy, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be harmed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We, our customers, or third-party service providers have in the past and may in the future experience an actual or perceived security breach, unauthorized access to data, or unintended operation of our products. If any such event occurs, our products may be perceived as not being secure, our reputation may be harmed, demand for our products may be reduced, and we may incur significant liabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We or our third-party service providers could suffer disruptions, outages, defects, and other performance and quality problems with our platform or with the public cloud and internet infrastructure on which it relies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We expect fluctuations in our financial results, making it difficult to project future results, and if we fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors with respect to our results of operations, our stock price could decline.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Failure to effectively develop and expand our sales and marketing capabilities could harm our ability to increase our customer base and achieve broader market acceptance of our products and platform.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Sales efforts to large customers involve risks that may not be present or that are present to a lesser extent with respect to sales to smaller organizations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We do business with federal, state, local, and foreign governments and agencies, and heavily regulated organizations; as a result, we face heightened risks related to special contract terms, non-standard product deployments, supply chain restrictions, and compliance with additional processes, rules, and regulations.

**PART I**

**ITEM 1. BUSINESS**

We believe that a cloud computing platform that puts data and artificial intelligence (AI) at its core will offer great benefits to organizations by allowing them to realize the value of the data that powers their businesses. By offering rich primitives for data and applications, we believe that we can create a data connected world where organizations have seamless access to explore, share, and unlock the value of data. Our vision is a world where data and AI turn possibilities into reality. To realize this vision, we deliver the AI Data Cloud, a network where Snowflake customers, partners, developers, data providers, and data consumers can break down data silos and derive value from a growing number of data sets in secure, governed, and compliant ways.

Our platform is the innovative technology that powers the AI Data Cloud, enabling customers to consolidate data into a single source of truth to drive meaningful insights, apply AI to solve business problems, build data applications, and share data and data products. We provide our platform through a customer-centric, consumption-based business model.

Snowflake solves the decades-old problem of data silos and data governance. Leveraging the elasticity and performance of the public cloud, our platform enables customers to unify and query data to support a wide variety of use cases. It also provides frictionless and governed data access so users can securely share data inside and outside of their organizations, generally without copying or moving the underlying data. As a result, customers can blend existing data with new data for broader context, augment data science efforts, and create new monetization streams. Delivered as a service, our platform requires near-zero infrastructure maintenance, enabling customers to focus on deriving value from their data rather than managing infrastructure.

Our cloud-native architecture includes three independently scalable but logically integrated layers across storage, compute, and cloud services. The storage layer ingests massive amounts and varieties of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data. The compute layer provides dedicated resources to enable users to simultaneously access common data sets for many use cases with minimal latency. Within the compute layer, users can clean and prepare their data, including any required metadata and business semantics, to create governed, unified data records that are AI ready and are written back to the storage layer. The cloud services layer enables users to securely use AI within applications, tools, and processes. This architecture is built on three major public clouds across 53 regional deployments around the world. These deployments are generally interconnected to deliver the AI Data Cloud, enabling a consistent, global user experience.

Our platform supports a wide range of product categories that enable our customers' most important business objectives, including analytics, data engineering, AI, and applications and collaboration. We are committed to expanding our platform's product features and use cases and supporting developers in building their applications and businesses. Many of our product features help power multiple product categories. In 2021, we launched Snowpark for Java and Scala to allow developers to build in the language of their choice, and in 2022 we added support for Python. Snowpark brings the power of Python and Java to our platform and complements many use cases for our customers across several product categories, including data engineering and AI. In 2023, we launched Snowpark Container Services, a fully managed container platform designed to facilitate the deployment, management, and scaling of containerized applications and AI models within our ecosystem. Snowpark Container Services are used in several of our product categories, including AI and applications. In 2024 and 2025, we announced and then launched Snowflake Intelligence within our AI product category, to enable our customers to create data agents, empowering business users to take actions on structured and unstructured data without the need for technical knowledge or coding skills. In 2025 and 2026, we announced and then launched Snowflake Postgres within our new transactions product category, a fully managed Postgres offering that enables customers to consolidate application and analytical data onto a single platform and build context-aware AI agents, deliver rich personalization and run powerful low latency analytics. We continue to invest in our Native Application program to help companies build, operate, and market applications in the AI Data Cloud by supporting developers across all stages of the application journey.

We have an industry-vertical focus, which allows us to go to market with tailored business solutions. For example, we have launched the AI Data Cloud for Financial Services, Advertising, Media and Entertainment, Retail & Consumer Goods, Healthcare & Life Sciences, Manufacturing, Technology, Telecom, Travel & Hospitality, and the Public Sector. Each of these brings together Snowflake's platform capabilities with industry-specific partner solutions and datasets to drive business growth and deliver improved experiences and insights.

Our net loss was $1.3 billion, $1.3 billion, and $838.0 million for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

**The Rise of the AI Data Cloud**

Data exists everywhere, but is often held hostage in silos by machines, applications, networks, and clouds. To access the value of this data, organizations are undergoing massive digital transformation initiatives, and data is driving operations for many modern enterprises. In an effort to mobilize data, companies have invested billions of dollars in disparate on-premises systems, infrastructure clouds, and application clouds. Yet, there are a myriad of challenges associated with legacy data solutions and the data silo problem persists.

We believe the AI Data Cloud can enable a world without data silos, allowing organizations to effortlessly discover, access, derive insights from, and share data from a variety of sources. Customers can share and provide access to each other's data or data products, build and deploy AI applications and experiences, augment data science and machine learning (ML) algorithms with more data sets, connect global supply chains through data hubs, build data and AI products, and create new monetization channels by connecting data providers and consumers. As the AI Data Cloud grows through broad adoption and increasing usage, there are enhanced benefits from greater data availability. Moving forward, we are continuing to foster these benefits through industry-specific AI Data Clouds and the Native Application Framework.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Micro-partitioning.* Our platform automatically partitions all data it stores without the need for user specification or configuration. It creates small files called "micro partitions" based on size, enabling optimizations in query processing to retrieve only the data relevant for user queries, simplifying user administration and enhancing performance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Metadata.* When data is ingested or accessed through interoperable storage, our platform automatically extracts and stores metadata to speed up query processing. It does so by collecting data distribution information for all columns in every micro-partition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Semi-structured and unstructured data.* In addition to structured, relational data, our platform supports semi-structured data, including JSON, Avro, and Parquet, and unstructured data, including PDF documents, screenshots, recordings, and images. Data in these formats can be ingested and queried with performance comparable to a relational, structured representation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Query Capabilities.*** Our platform is engineered to query petabytes of data. It implements support for a large subset of the ANSI SQL standard for read operations and data modification operations. Our platform provides additional features, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Time travel.* Our platform keeps track of all changes happening to a table, which enables customers to query previous versions based on their preferences. Customers can query as of a relative point in time or as of an absolute point in time. This has a broad array of use cases for customers, including error recovery, time-based analysis, and data quality checks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Cloning.* Our architecture enables us to offer zero-copy cloning, an operation by which entire tables, schemas, or databases can be duplicated—or cloned—without having to copy or duplicate the underlying data. Our platform leverages the separation between cloud services and storage to be able to track independent clones of objects sharing the same physical copy of the underlying data. This enables a variety of customer use cases such as making copies of production data for data scientists, creating custom snapshots in time, or testing data pipelines.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Compute Model.*** Our platform offers a variety of capabilities to operate on data, from ingestion to transformation, as well as rich query and analysis. Our compute services are primarily presented to users in one of two models, either through explicit specification of compute clusters or through a number of serverless features.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Compute Clusters.* Our platform exposes compute clusters as a core concept. Our customers can create as few or as many compute clusters as they want and specify compute capacity at tiered levels. These clusters can be configured to run only when needed, with cluster instantiation operations typically completed in seconds. Compute clusters can also be configured as a multi-cluster warehouse in which our platform can automatically add and remove additional instances of a given cluster to address variations in query demands. This gives us the ability to offer extremely high levels of concurrency with a simple configuration specification. We also offer warehouse recommendations for workloads that have large memory requirements, such as ML use cases.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Serverless features.* We offer a number of additional services that automatically provide the capacity our customers require. For example, our data ingestion service automatically ingests data from cloud storage and allocates compute capacity based on the amount of data ingested; our clustering service continuously rearranges the physical layout of data to ensure conformity with clustering key specifications, improving performance; our materialized views service propagates changes from underlying tables to views that have materialized subsets or summaries; our replication service moves data between regions or clouds; our search optimization service analyzes changes in data, maintains information that speeds up lookup queries, and accelerates queries performing lookups of specific values; and our query acceleration service automatically offloads parts of eligible queries to shared, flexible compute clusters to handle high-burst workloads.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Data Sharing.*** In our platform, data sharing within any given region is defined through access control and not through data movement. As such, the data consumer sees no latency relative to updates from the data provider, and incurs no cost to move or transform data to make it usable. Based on the same technology principles, our platform enables data clean rooms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Global Infrastructure***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Replication.* Our platform enables customers to replicate data from one region or public cloud to another region or public cloud while maintaining transactional integrity, either at the granularity of a database or an account.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Business continuity.* Our platform enables failing over and failing back a database and redirecting clients transparently across regions or public clouds. This provides an integrated and global disaster recovery capability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Global listings for sharing.* Our platform enables a listing to be published globally to access consumers across regions or public clouds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ***Built-in Security.*** We built our platform with security as a core shared responsibility between us and our customers. Our platform provides a number of configurable capabilities for customers to confidently use our platform while configuring security requirements for their organizations, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Authentication.* Our platform supports a number of customer-configurable authentication capabilities, including federated authentication with a variety of identity providers, as well as support for multi-factor authentication.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Access control.* Our platform provides a fine-grained, customer-configurable security model based on role-based access control. It provides granular privileges on system objects and actions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ *Data encryption.* Our platform encrypts customer data uploaded to our platform, both at rest and in transit over untrusted networks to and from our platform, and simplifies operations by providing automatic re-keying of data. It also supports customer-managed keys, where an additional layer of encryption is provided by keys controlled by customers, giving them the ability to control access to the data.

**Seasonality**

Historically, we have received a higher volume of orders from new and existing customers in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year. As a result, we have historically seen higher net cash provided by operating activities and non-GAAP free cash flow in the first and fourth fiscal quarters of each year, and our sequential growth in remaining performance obligations has historically been highest in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year. In addition, while historically revenue has been higher in our fourth fiscal quarter, it is also the most negatively impacted by reduced holiday consumption. For more information, including a definition of non-GAAP free cash flow and a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), to free cash flow, see the section titled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

**Human Capital Resources**

***General***

As of January 31, 2026, we had 9,060 employees operating across 36 countries. None of our employees in the United States are represented by a labor union with respect to his or her employment. In certain countries in which we operate, we are subject to, and comply with, local labor law requirements, which include works councils, labor unions, and industry-wide collective bargaining agreements. We have not experienced any work stoppages, and we consider our relations with our employees to be good.

***Location***

We are a Delaware corporation with a globally distributed workforce. We recruit and hire employees in jurisdictions around the world based on a range of factors, including the available talent pool, the type of work being performed, the relative cost of labor, regulatory requirements and costs, and other considerations. The majority of our personnel work from physical offices.

***Culture and Engagement***

We consider our culture and employees to be important to our success. Our culture is driven by our core company values:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Put Customers First**: We only succeed when our customers succeed, so we focus on what matters most to them.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Integrity Always**: We are open, honest, and respectful.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Think Big**: We set big goals that will make a positive impact and a lasting difference.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Be Excellent**: We hold ourselves to the highest standards to achieve quality and excellence in everything we do.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Make Each Other the Best**: We bring ideas and people together through respect and collaboration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Get it Done**: We follow through on our commitments and deliver results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Own It**: We hold ourselves accountable at all times.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Embrace Each Other's Differences**: We are mindful that everyone has different experiences, and we use our differences to strengthen who we are.

***Total Rewards and Talent Management***

Our ability to execute our strategy depends on attracting and retaining a highly skilled workforce, particularly in software engineering, sales, and management. To maintain a competitive advantage, we focus on three pillars:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Competitive Compensation**: We utilize a mix of fixed and variable cash compensation designed to reward performance against defined business results and core values.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Equity Alignment**: We grant equity awards to align employee interests with long-term stockholder value. Additionally, our 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) allows eligible participants to purchase shares at a 15% discount up to U.S. Internal Revenue Code limits.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Global Benefits & Development**: We provide comprehensive benefits tailored to local markets that meet or exceed statutory requirements. Beyond financial rewards, we invest in our human capital through structured career development and growth opportunities.

**Intellectual Property**

Intellectual property rights are important to the success of our business. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret laws in the United States and other jurisdictions, as well as license agreements, confidentiality procedures, non-disclosure agreements with third parties, and other contractual protections, to protect our intellectual property rights, including our proprietary technology, software, know-how, and brand. We use open-source software in our platform.

As of January 31, 2026, we held more than 1,050 issued U.S. patents and had more than 320 U.S. patent applications pending. We also held more than 150 issued patents in foreign jurisdictions. As of January 31, 2026, we held more than 45 registered trademarks in the United States, and also held more than 800 registered or protected trademarks in foreign jurisdictions. We continually review our development efforts to assess the existence and patentability of new intellectual property.

Although we rely on intellectual property rights, including patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets, as well as contractual protections to establish and protect our proprietary rights, we believe that factors such as the technological and creative skills of our personnel, creation of new services, features and functionality, and frequent enhancements to our platform are more essential to establishing and maintaining our technology leadership position.

We control access to and use of our proprietary technology and other confidential information through the use of internal and external controls, including technical controls and contractual protections with employees, contractors, customers, and partners. We require our employees, consultants, and other third parties to enter into confidentiality and proprietary rights agreements, and we control and monitor access to our software, documentation, proprietary technology, and other confidential information. Our policy is to require all employees and independent contractors to sign agreements assigning to us any inventions, trade secrets, works of authorship, developments, processes, and other intellectual property generated by them on our behalf and under which they agree to protect our confidential information. In addition, we generally enter into confidentiality agreements with our customers and partners. See the section titled "Risk Factors" for a more comprehensive description of risks related to our intellectual property.

**Government Regulation**

Our business activities are subject to various federal, state, local, and foreign laws, rules, and regulations. Compliance with these laws, rules, and regulations has not had a material effect on our capital expenditures, results of operations, and competitive position as compared to prior periods. Nevertheless, compliance with existing or future governmental regulations, including, but not limited to, those related to global trade, business acquisitions, consumer and data protection, AI, government contracts, environmental or related requirements or disclosures, and taxes, could have a material impact on our business in future periods. For more information on the potential impacts of government regulations affecting our business, see the section titled "Risk Factors."

**ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS**

*Our operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described below. You should consider and read carefully all of the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the sections titled "Special Note about Forward-Looking Statements" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and our consolidated financial statements and related notes, before making an investment decision. The risks described below are not the only ones we face. The occurrence of any of the following risks or additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, or growth prospects. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline. You should not interpret our disclosure of any of the following risks to imply that such risks have not already materialized.*

**Risks Related to Our Business and Operations**

***We have experienced rapid revenue growth and have a limited operating history, both of which make it difficult to forecast our future results of operations.***

Our revenue was $4.7 billion, $3.6 billion, and $2.8 billion for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. As a result of our historical rapid growth, limited operating history, large number of new product features, including those incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning technology (collectively, AI Technology), and unstable macroeconomic conditions, our ability to accurately forecast our future results of operations, including revenue, gross margin, remaining performance obligations (RPO), and the percentage of RPO we expect to recognize as revenue in future periods, is limited and subject to a number of uncertainties, including our ability to plan for and model future growth and platform consumption. Our historical revenue growth should not be considered indicative of our future performance.

Further, our revenue growth could slow or our revenue could decline for a number of reasons, including increased competition; changes to technology, such as changes in software or underlying cloud infrastructure or the increasing prominence of new technology like AI; reputational harm; changes in macroeconomic conditions; and reduced demand for our platform. For example, customers may continue to optimize consumption, rationalize budgets, and prioritize cash flow management, including by reducing storage through shorter data retention policies and shortening committed contract durations. As a result of the foregoing and our rapid revenue growth in prior periods, our revenue growth rate has slowed in recent periods. Any further declines in our revenue growth rate could adversely affect investors' perceptions of our business, and negatively impact the trading price of our common stock.

Our revenue growth is also dependent on our ability to increase our penetration into existing markets, and to successfully enter and grow new markets, including highly-regulated markets such as financial services, healthcare, and the public sector. Sales to highly-regulated entities are subject to substantial additional costs and risks that are not present in sales to other customers, which are described below in the risk factor titled "*We do business with federal, state, local, and foreign governments and agencies, and heavily regulated organizations; as a result, we face heightened risks related to special contract terms, non-standard product deployments, supply chain restrictions, and compliance with additional processes, rules, and regulations.*"

We have also encountered, and will continue to encounter, risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies in rapidly changing industries, such as the risks and uncertainties described below. If our assumptions regarding these risks and uncertainties and our future revenue growth are incorrect or change, or if we do not address these risks successfully, our operating and financial results could differ materially from our expectations, and our business could suffer.

------

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

***We may not have visibility into our future financial position and results of operations.***

Customers generally consume our platform by using compute, storage, and/or data transfer resources. Unlike a subscription-based business model, in which revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the subscription, we generally recognize revenue on consumption. Because our customers have flexibility in the timing of their consumption, we do not have the visibility into the timing of revenue recognition that a typical subscription-based software company has. Customer consumption fluctuates from time to time, and there is a risk that customers will consume our platform at lower levels than we expect, including in response to new software releases or hardware improvements that may make our platform more efficient, adverse macroeconomic conditions, or holidays. Unexpected fluctuations in customer consumption may cause actual results to differ from our forecasts. As a result, our results of operations in a given period should not be relied upon as indicative of future performance.

***We have a history of operating losses and may not achieve or sustain profitability in the future.***

We have experienced net losses in each period since inception. We generated net losses of $1.3 billion, $1.3 billion and $838.0 million for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $9.5 billion and $7.3 billion, respectively. We expect our costs and expenses to continue to increase in future periods. In particular, we intend to continue to invest significant resources to further develop our platform, expand our research and development teams, retain our employees, and acquire other businesses, including in the areas of data science, AI, and machine learning. We have also entered and may in the future enter into new customer consumption arrangements, and have invested and may continue to invest in new product areas, that are complex and costly and whose adoption and usage are unpredictable. These activities may lead to increased fluctuations in our revenue and lower profit margins. In addition, our platform currently operates on public cloud infrastructure provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure (Azure), and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and our costs and gross margins are significantly influenced by the prices we are able to negotiate with these public cloud providers, which in certain cases are also our competitors. If we fail to meet any minimum commitments under our third-party cloud infrastructure agreements, we may be required to pay the difference, and our results of operations could be negatively impacted. We will also incur increased general and administrative expenses associated with our growth, including costs related to internal systems, operating as a public company, and targeting regulated industries or markets. Our efforts to grow our business have been and may continue to be costlier than we expect, or our revenue growth rate may be slower than we expect, and we may not be able to increase our revenue enough to offset the increase in operating expenses resulting from these investments. If we are unable to achieve and sustain profitability, or if we are unable to achieve the revenue growth that we expect from these investments, the value of our business and common stock may significantly decrease.

***The markets in which we operate are highly competitive, and if we do not compete effectively, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be harmed.***

The markets in which we operate are rapidly evolving and highly competitive. In recent years, we have adopted open data formats like Apache Iceberg tables to allow customers to use our platform to process data stored in external customer-controlled environments outside of Snowflake, and we have introduced a significant number of new features and expanded into new product categories like AI and transactions. These changes are driving increased competition, both because there is less customer "lock in" when our products are used in external environments, and also because we are competing across more product categories, each of which is subject to distinct customer requirements and preferences. Our success depends on our ability to continue to effectively innovate in response to changing market dynamics.

Our current competitors include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• large, well-established, public cloud providers that generally compete in all of our markets, including AWS, Azure, and GCP;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• less-established public and private cloud companies with products that compete in some or all of our markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other established vendors of legacy database solutions or big data offerings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• existing observability solution providers, particularly those with strong technological, marketing, and sales positions; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• new or emerging entrants seeking to develop competing technologies.

------

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

We compete based on various factors, including price, performance, product features, breadth of use cases, multi-cloud availability, brand recognition and reputation, customer support, technical services, and differentiated capabilities, including ease of implementation and data migration, ease of administration and use, scalability and reliability, data governance, security and compatibility with existing standards, programming languages, third-party products, and the ability to operate in hybrid environments. Many of our competitors have substantially greater brand recognition, customer relationships, and financial, technical, and other resources than we do, and may be able to respond more effectively than us to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards, customer requirements, and buying practices. Some of our privately-held competitors also have greater operational flexibility than we do, including the ability to make strategic long-term business decisions without the short-term financial performance pressure, market expectations, and public disclosure obligations that affect public companies. In addition, we may not be able to respond to market opportunities as quickly as smaller companies or offer as many discounts or free services as our competitors. Our support of open data formats may also reduce switching costs between us and our competitors.

We currently offer our platform on the public clouds provided by AWS, Azure, and GCP, which are also some of our primary competitors. Currently, a substantial majority of our business is run on the AWS public cloud. There is risk that one or more of these public cloud providers could use its respective control of its public clouds to embed innovations or privileged interoperating capabilities in competing products, bundle competing products, provide us unfavorable pricing, leverage its public cloud customer relationships to exclude us from opportunities, and treat us and our customers differently with respect to terms and conditions or regulatory requirements than it would treat its similarly situated customers. Further, they have the resources to acquire, invest in, or partner with existing and emerging providers of competing technologies and thereby accelerate adoption of those competing technologies. All of the foregoing could make it difficult or impossible for us to provide products and services that compete favorably with those of the public cloud providers.

Companies with which we have strategic partnerships and alliances in some areas may be competitors in other areas, and this trend may increase, particularly as we expand our product offerings. Additionally, companies that are strategic partners in some areas of our business may acquire or form alliances with our competitors, thereby reducing their business with us. We also face competition from some of our customers and vendors. Further, some customers use drivers and/or connectors to connect our platform to third-party applications or databases. Attempts by third-party application or database providers to restrict the use of drivers and connectors may make it more difficult for customers to use our platform, which could lead to reduced sales and consumption. Any inability to effectively manage these complex relationships could materially harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

In addition, enterprise adoption of AI may significantly transform our competitive landscape. Frontier AI model providers may seek to vertically integrate their offerings by expanding into the data storage and management layers and developing their own database solutions. In addition, companies may use AI to develop their own software, reducing their need to purchase third-party solutions. If this occurs, our market share could decline and our business could be harmed.

For all of these reasons, competition may negatively impact our ability to acquire new customers and maintain and grow use of our platform, put downward pressure on our prices and gross margins, or lead us to take greater risks, any of which could materially harm our business, reputation, results of operations, revenue retention rate, and financial condition.

***If we fail to innovate in response to changing customer needs, new technologies, or other market requirements, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be harmed.***

We compete in markets that evolve rapidly. We believe that the pace of innovation will continue to accelerate as customers increasingly base their purchases of cloud data platforms on a broad range of factors, including performance and scale, cost, markets addressed, types of data processed, ease of data ingress and egress, support of open data formats, user experience and programming languages, use of AI, interoperability and integrations across tools, applications, and platforms, and data governance, security, and regulatory compliance. We introduced data warehousing on our platform in 2014 as our core use case, and our customers subsequently began using our platform for additional product categories, including analytics, data engineering, AI, and applications and collaboration. Our future success depends on our ability to continue to innovate rapidly and effectively and increase customer adoption of our platform and the AI Data Cloud, including emerging product areas such as AI, Apache Iceberg tables, and Snowpark.

Further, the value of our platform to customers increases to the extent they are able to use it to process and access all types of data. We need to continue to invest in technologies, services, and partnerships that increase the types of data available and processed on our platform, the ease with which customers can ingest data into our platform, and the types of environments that our platform supports, including hybrid offerings that extend into customer-managed environments. We must also continue to enhance our data sharing and marketplace capabilities so customers can share their data with internal business units, their customers, and other third parties, acquire additional third-party data and data products to combine with their own data to gain additional business insights, and develop and monetize applications on our platform. As we develop, acquire, and introduce new services and technologies, including those that incorporate AI Technology, we have been and may continue to be subject to new or heightened legal, ethical, and other challenges. In addition, our platform requires third-party public cloud infrastructure to operate. We need to continue to innovate to optimize our offerings for these and other public clouds that our customers require, particularly as we expand internationally. Further, the markets in which we compete are subject to evolving industry standards and regulations, resulting in increasing data governance and compliance requirements for us and our customers and partners. As we expand further into the public sector and highly regulated countries and industries, our platform and operations will need to address additional requirements specific to those markets, including data sovereignty requirements.

If we are unable to enhance our platform or operations to keep pace with these rapidly evolving customer needs or other market requirements, or if new technologies emerge that deliver competitive products at lower prices, more efficiently, more conveniently, or more securely than our platform, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.

***If we are not successful in executing an effective AI strategy, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be harmed.***

We are investing significantly in AI Technology. Our investments include internally developing AI Technology, acquiring companies with complementary AI Technology, and partnering with companies to bring AI Technology to our platform. Our competitors are pursuing similar opportunities and may, as a result of greater resources, branding, or otherwise, develop, adopt, and implement AI Technology faster or more successfully than we do, which could impair our ability to compete effectively. We also use third-party vendors for certain AI Technology components and services, including large language models, and if they are flawed or fail to execute, it may adversely impact our ability to deliver our products and services to our customers. In addition, our successful development of AI Technology depends on our access to GPUs and ability to recruit and retain AI-skilled personnel, both of which are currently in high demand. Finally, customers' use of our AI Technology is often dependent on their ability to meet evolving regulatory standards, successfully complete internal compliance reviews, and enter into mutually acceptable contractual terms. If they are unable to do so, they may not use our AI Technology as much as we anticipate, or at all. It is also possible that our investments in AI Technology do not result in the benefits we anticipate, or enable us to maintain our competitive advantage. For example, we may not accurately anticipate market demand or offer AI Technology that amplifies our core data platform.

In addition, we are increasingly using AI Technology as part of our internal operations. For example, we use AI Technology to enhance research and development, sales and marketing, services delivery, and compliance activities. If we are unable to effectively leverage AI Technology in our internal operations, or if we fail to use AI Technology responsibly, our productivity, operational efficiency, or effectiveness may suffer. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or prospects.

***We, our customers, or third-party service providers have in the past and may in the future experience an actual or perceived security breach, unauthorized access to data, or unintended operation of our products. If any such event occurs, our products may be perceived as not being secure, our reputation may be harmed, demand for our products may be reduced, and we may incur significant liabilities.***

In the ordinary course of our business, we store, transmit, generate, and process our, our customers', and our business partners' confidential and proprietary data. Such data includes sensitive data, such as personal information, protected health information, and financial data. We use third-party service providers, sub-processors, and technology to help us deliver services to our customers and their end-users, as well as for our internal business operations. We also use third-party technology to assist with securing our environment and providing access to our platform. Some of our customers also use third-party service providers to assist with their use of our platform or third-party technology, such as connectors, to access our platform. These third-party service providers may process, store, or transmit data of our employees, partners, customers, and customers' end-users or may otherwise be used to help operate our platform and corporate systems. In addition, AI models and large datasets are increasingly integrated into our, our customers', and other third parties' systems. We, our customers and business partners, and these third parties face a variety of evolving and increasing cybersecurity and data threats related to this complex network of technology.

Cybersecurity threats come from a variety of sources, including traditional computer "hackers," internal and external personnel (such as through exfiltration or misuse), sophisticated nation-states, and nation-state-supported actors. Cybersecurity threat actors can use a wide variety of methods, including unauthorized intrusions, denial-of-service attacks, ransomware attacks, business email compromises, computer malware, infostealer malware, social engineering attacks (including through deep-fakes and phishing), internal and external personnel misconduct or error, supply-chain attacks, software vulnerabilities, software or hardware disruptions or failures, and attacks enhanced or facilitated by AI Technology, all of which are prevalent in our industry and our customers' and partners' industries. These methods change frequently and are becoming increasingly difficult to detect. Threat actors who successfully compromise networks or systems may use such unauthorized access as a vector to compromise other networks and systems. Threat actors' goals often include disrupting a company's operations or ability to provide services, obtaining unauthorized access to platforms, systems, networks, or physical facilities in which data is stored or processed, or through which data is transmitted, stealing data, and demanding ransomware payments.

There can be no assurance that security measures designed to protect against security incidents will be effective, that we will be able to detect, mitigate, or remediate vulnerabilities in our products and information security systems (such as our hardware and software, including that of third parties upon which we rely) on a timely basis, or that our efforts to investigate, mitigate, contain, and remediate any security or data incidents that do occur will be successful. In general, cybersecurity incidents or security vulnerabilities (both in our internal environment and third-party environments we may not control), as well as actions taken by us or third parties to detect, investigate, mitigate, contain, and remediate them, could lead to significant interruptions in our operations, outages, loss of data and income, reputational harm, diversion of funds, increased insurance costs, and other harm to our business, reputation, and competitive position. We also may be unwilling or unable to make ransom payments due to, for example, applicable laws or regulations prohibiting such payments, the negative precedent such payments would set, or uncertainty over whether such payments would result in the threat actor deleting stolen data or otherwise delivering on their promised course of action.

In addition, the risk of cybersecurity and data incidents will increase as we continue to expand our product offerings and geographic footprint, grow our customer and partner base, expand our AI Technology offerings, acquire operating companies, begin to operate in and integrate with environments outside of our platform and over which we exercise significantly less or no control, and process, store, and transmit increasingly large amounts and increasingly sensitive and highly regulated types of data. In particular, certain new product offerings, including through both internal development and strategic acquisitions, may pose different or greater data and security risks than our traditional offerings. These products include, for example, features and functionality that access, take instructions from, and operate on large amounts of data inside and outside our platform, or that are accessible from external environments where we have no or limited visibility or control, such as distributed endpoints (e.g., a user's local device) and publicly accessible networks, which increase the potential attack surface for threat actors. If our security measures designed to mitigate and defend against these risks are not effective or if our customers fail to effectively implement them, we or customers may experience unintended access to or actions taken with respect to our or their systems or data.

Any security breach of our platform, our operational systems, our software (including open-source software), our physical facilities, or the systems of our third-party service providers or sub-processors, or the perception that one has occurred, or unintended access or operations within our customers' or partners' systems, data, or technology, could result in claims that we have breached customer contracts or other legal obligations. In addition, we may be subject to, and have received in the past, requests by regulators (including members of Congress) for information about our security practices, our public statements about our security program, experiences, and issues. Alleged failures, problems, or issues related to our information security or our customers' use of our platform, including following such information requests, could result in additional investigations; actions from a variety of regulators, including state attorneys general, the Department of Justice, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and the SEC; litigation; indemnity obligations; fines; penalties; mitigation and remediation costs; reputational harm; diversion of management's attention; customer relationship issues; and other liabilities and damage to our business. Security or data incidents and their resulting consequences, including negative publicity, may also cause customers to stop using our platform, deter existing or prospective customers from using our platform, and negatively impact our ability to grow and operate our business. Further, cybersecurity incidents have in the past and may in the future lead customers or prospective customers to attempt to negotiate contractual terms that are less favorable to us, such as broader indemnification obligations, more stringent cybersecurity requirements, and higher limitations of liability.

We may incur liability or suffer reputational harm for cybersecurity even if we do not control the applicable security measures or if we are not at fault. Our customers have experienced, and may in the future experience, security incidents in connection with their use of our platform that harm our customer relationships and our reputation, even when such incidents are due to vulnerabilities, policy violations, inadequate security controls, or credential exposures that we do not cause. We operate under a shared responsibility cybersecurity model where we are responsible for the security of our platform and underlying cloud infrastructure, while our customers are responsible for selecting, enabling, and configuring security and operational controls for their individual environments in a manner that meets applicable cybersecurity standards and effectively reduces their information security risk. Some customers also use third-party external authentication tools, in which case we do not have visibility into whether adequate access controls (such as multi-factor authentication (MFA) or network restrictions) are being enforced. Regardless of whether customers use our authentication tools or external tools, if customers allow static access credentials, they are responsible for ensuring that the credentials remain private and are rotated on a regular basis. If our customers do not implement, or incorrectly implement, the security tools and features we offer and support within our platform or otherwise fail to fulfill their responsibilities under our shared responsibility cybersecurity model, there is a higher risk that they will be the victim of cybersecurity or data incidents, which may harm our customer relationships, our reputation, and our business, which has occurred in the past and may happen again in the future.

We have contractual and other legal obligations to notify customers and other parties of certain incidents, and may choose to make such notifications even if not legally required to do so. For example, SEC rules require disclosure on Form 8-K of the nature, scope and timing of any material cybersecurity incident and the reasonably likely impact of such incident. Determining whether a cybersecurity incident is notifiable or reportable may not be straightforward, and any such mandatory disclosures are costly and could lead to negative publicity, loss of customer or partner confidence in the effectiveness of our security measures, diversion of management's attention, governmental investigations, and the expenditure of significant capital and other resources to investigate, respond to, or alleviate problems caused by the actual or perceived security breach.

Our insurance coverage may not be adequate for liability arising from data security breaches involving us or our customers or other third parties, indemnification obligations, or other liabilities. The successful assertion of one or more large claims against us that exceeds our available insurance coverage or results in changes to our insurance policies (including premium increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements) could have an adverse effect on our business. In addition, we cannot be sure that our existing insurance coverage and coverage for errors and omissions will continue to be available on acceptable terms or that our insurers will not deny coverage as to any future claim, particularly as we continue to expand our product offerings with different security risk profiles.

For example, in May 2024, we became aware that cybersecurity threat actors had accessed a number of our customers' Snowflake accounts as a result of such customers' failure to fulfill certain of their obligations under our shared responsibility cybersecurity model (e.g., implementing MFA and network access policies). Even though we did not identify any evidence suggesting this activity was caused by or otherwise related to any vulnerability or misconfiguration of our systems, or a breach of our platform's security or our environment, we have been the subject of numerous lawsuits, regulatory investigations, and lawmaker inquiries relating to these customer incidents. Since May 2024, we have been made aware of additional cyberattacks on customers' Snowflake accounts using similar methods intended to take advantage of customers' failures to implement appropriate security safeguards (e.g., MFA and network access policies). We are unable to predict the outcome or timeline of these matters or whether any additional requests, inquiries, lawsuits, investigations or other government actions may arise. We have suffered and may continue to suffer negative publicity and reputational damage, including due to the misperception that our customers' incidents resulted from a vulnerability, misconfiguration or breach of our platform's security or systems and malicious activity within our environment. In addition, we may experience a loss of existing customers or face claims by customers, and it is possible that we are not able to fully recover any losses relating to these matters through any applicable insurance coverage or we may be required to seek indemnification from breached customers to mitigate our damages, which may be unsuccessful or impractical. These matters, together with any additional inquiries, regulatory or governmental investigations, or other disputes that result from these customer security incidents, have in the past and will continue to require us to divert resources and may harm our reputation, business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Finally, some of our employees work remotely, including while traveling for business, which increases our cybersecurity risk, creates data accessibility concerns, and makes us more susceptible to security breaches or business disruptions. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or prospects.

***Any litigation against us could be costly and time-consuming to defend.***

From time to time, we may become subject to legal proceedings and claims, such as claims brought by our customers in connection with commercial disputes, cybersecurity incidents, employment claims, including claims related to the loss of employee equity grants upon termination, intellectual property claims, or securities class actions or other claims related to volatility in the trading price of our common stock. For example, we are named in a securities class action lawsuit in federal court alleging federal securities law violations, a class action lawsuit in federal court alleging copyright infringement in connection with our large language model training, and numerous class action lawsuits alleging common law and statutory claims in connection with cybersecurity matters. See the section titled "Legal Proceedings" for more information. Litigation has resulted and could continue to result in substantial costs and diversion of management's attention and resources, which might seriously harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our existing insurance might not cover such claims, provide sufficient payments to cover all the costs to resolve one or more such claims, or continue to be available on terms acceptable to us (including premium increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements). A claim brought against us that is uninsured or underinsured could result in unanticipated costs, potentially harming our business, financial position, and results of operations.

***We or our third-party service providers could suffer disruptions, outages, defects, and other performance and quality problems with our platform or with the public cloud and internet infrastructure on which it relies.***

Our business depends on our platform being available without disruption. We and our third-party service providers have experienced, and may in the future experience, disruptions, outages, defects, and other performance and quality problems related to our platform and with the public cloud and internet infrastructure on which our platform relies. These problems can be caused by a variety of factors, including introductions of new functionality, vulnerabilities, coding errors, and defects in proprietary and open-source software, human error or misconduct, natural disasters (such as tornadoes, earthquakes, or fires), capacity constraints, design limitations, denial of service attacks, or other security-related incidents.

Further, if our contractual and other business relationships with our public cloud providers are terminated, suspended, or suffer a material change to which we are unable to adapt, such as the elimination of services or features on which we depend, we could be unable to provide our platform and could experience significant delays and incur additional expenses in transitioning customers to a different public cloud provider.

Any disruptions, outages, defects, and other performance and quality problems with our platform or with the public cloud, internet infrastructure, or other technology on which it relies, or any material change in our contractual and other business relationships with our public cloud providers, could result in reduced use of our platform, increased expenses, including service credit obligations, and harm to our brand and reputation, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

***We expect fluctuations in our financial results, making it difficult to project future results, and if we fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors with respect to our results of operations, our stock price could decline.***

Our results of operations have fluctuated in the past and are expected to fluctuate in the future due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. As a result, our past results may not be indicative of our future performance. In addition to the other risks described herein, factors that may affect our results of operations include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations in demand for our platform or changes in our pricing model, including in response to significant price discounts by our competitors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations in usage of our platform, including as a result of customer optimization efforts that result in reduced consumption to execute workloads;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to attract new customers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to retain existing customers and drive their increased sustained consumption of our platform (including new product features and functionality);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• customer expansion rates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• timing, amount, and cost of our investments to expand the capacity of our public cloud providers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• seasonality, including the impact of holidays;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• investments in new features, functionality, and programming languages, including investments in AI Technology and in making our platform available to store and process highly regulated data or comply with new or existing data sovereignty requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations in consumption resulting from the introduction of new features, technologies, or capabilities to our software, systems, or to underlying cloud infrastructure, including features or capabilities that may increase or decrease the consumption required to execute existing or future workloads, like better storage compression, cloud infrastructure processor improvements, or compute optimization that automatically adjusts and adapts compute resources based on workloads, or that allow customers to use our platform for compute services without requiring storage;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to execute on our business strategy, including our strategies related to the AI Data Cloud, such as Snowpark, the Snowflake Marketplace, and Snowflake Cortex AI;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the timing and frequency of purchases;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the speed and ease with which customers are able to migrate data onto our platform;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations or delays in purchasing decisions in anticipation of new products or enhancements by us or our competitors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***•*** changes in customers' budgets and cash flow management strategies and in the timing of their budget cycles and purchasing decisions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in government budgets and uncertainty relating to the appropriations process;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to control costs, including our operating expenses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the amount and timing of operating expenses, particularly research and development expenses, including those related to GPUs to develop AI Technology, and sales and marketing expenses, including commissions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the amount and timing of non-cash expenses, including stock-based compensation, goodwill impairments, and other non-cash charges;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the amount and timing of legal expenses, including settlements, judgments, fines, legal fees, and other charges associated with litigation, governmental investigations or inquiries, regulatory investigations or inquiries, or other legal proceedings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the amount and timing of costs associated with hiring, training, and integrating new employees and retaining and motivating existing employees;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the effects and timing of acquisitions and their integration;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• general political, social, market, and economic conditions, uncertainty, or volatility, both domestically and internationally, as well as political, social, and economic conditions specifically affecting industries in which our customers and partners participate or on which they rely;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• public health crises, such as epidemics and pandemics;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the impact, or timing of our adoption, of new accounting pronouncements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in regulatory or legal environments, including the interpretation or enforcement of regulatory or legal requirements, that may cause us to incur, among other things, expenses associated with compliance;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the overall tax rate for our business, which may be affected by the mix of income we earn in the United States and in jurisdictions with different tax rates, the effects of stock-based compensation, and the effects of changes in our business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the impact of changes in tax laws or judicial or regulatory interpretations of tax laws, which are recorded in the period in which such laws are enacted or interpretations are issued and may significantly affect the effective tax rate of that period;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• inflation and our ability to control costs, including our operating expenses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations in currency exchange rates and changes in the proportion of our revenue and expenses denominated or measured in foreign currencies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations or impairments in, or the full loss of, the market values of our strategic investments or of our portfolio, including changes to the value or accessibility of our cash and cash equivalents as a result of economic conditions or bank failures;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations in interest rates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the competitive dynamics of our market, including consolidation among competitors or customers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• significant security breaches affecting our platform or customers' accounts, external systems, or data;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our ability to meet our debt obligations; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• technical difficulties with, or interruptions to, the delivery and use of our platform.

Any of these factors may cause our results of operations to vary significantly or be adversely affected. If our results of operations fall below the expectations of investors and securities analysts who follow our stock, the price of our common stock could decline substantially, and we could face costly lawsuits, including securities class actions.

***Failure to effectively develop and expand our sales and marketing capabilities could harm our ability to increase our customer base and achieve broader market acceptance of our products and platform.***

We must continue to increase the size and productivity of our sales and marketing organization to increase our sales to new and existing customers. It requires significant time and resources to hire and effectively onboard new sales and marketing personnel and to train and manage new and existing personnel so they are able to successfully sell our product. We also plan to continue to dedicate significant resources to sales and marketing programs that are industry-specific and focused on large organizations. Once a new customer begins using our platform, our sales team needs to focus on expanding consumption with that customer. All these efforts require us to invest significant financial and other resources, including in industries and sales channels in which we have limited experience to date. In addition, our sales compensation plans must be structured in a way that properly incentivizes our sales and marketing personnel to drive increased consumption and new capacity arrangements on favorable terms. Our business and results of operations will be harmed if our sales and marketing efforts generate increases in revenue that are smaller than anticipated. We may not achieve anticipated revenue growth from our sales force if we are unable to attract, hire, develop, integrate, and retain talented and effective sales personnel, if our sales personnel are unable to achieve desired productivity levels, or if our sales and marketing programs, including our sales compensation plans, are not effective.

***Sales efforts to large customers involve risks that may not be present or that are present to a lesser extent with respect to sales to smaller organizations.***

Sales to large customers involve risks that may not be present or that are present to a lesser extent with sales to smaller organizations, such as longer sales cycles, stronger customer leverage in negotiating pricing and other terms, more cumbersome customer requirements, the additional need to partner with third parties that advise such customers or help them integrate their IT solutions, substantial upfront sales costs, less predictability in completing some of our sales, and higher customer support expectations. For example, large customers may require considerable time to evaluate and test our platform or new features prior to making a purchase decision. In addition, large customers may be switching from legacy on-premises solutions when purchasing our products, and may rely on third parties with whom we do not have relationships when making purchasing decisions. When we accept non-standard customer requirements that deviate from our standard offerings, we typically need to change our standard operating model, which increases both the cost of compliance as well as the likelihood of noncompliance. Further, large customers typically have more extensive compliance and vendor diligence programs with respect to new products and services, which can increase both the time and resources needed to sell to them and also result in the inability to sell to them if we do not meet their compliance standards. A number of factors also influence the length and variability of our sales cycle, including the need to educate potential customers about the uses and benefits of our platform, the renegotiation of finalized terms or existing agreements to cover increased spend, additional product categories (e.g., our AI features), changing laws and regulations, different use cases or workloads, or heightened security, privacy, or operational expectations, the discretionary nature of purchasing and budget cycles, and the competitive nature of evaluation and purchasing approval processes. As a result, the length of our sales cycle, from identification of the opportunity to deal closure, may vary significantly from customer to customer, with sales to large enterprises typically taking longer to complete. We have also historically seen consumption growth from large enterprises take longer than when compared to smaller enterprises. Moreover, large customers often begin to deploy our products on a limited basis but nevertheless demand implementation services and negotiate pricing discounts, which increase our upfront investment in the sales effort with no guarantee that sales to these customers will justify our substantial upfront investment. If we fail to effectively manage these risks associated with sales cycles and sales to large customers, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be affected.

***We do business with federal, state, local, and foreign governments and agencies, and heavily regulated organizations; as a result, we face heightened risks related to special contract terms, non-standard product deployments, supply chain restrictions, and compliance with additional processes, rules, and regulations.***

We sell to the U.S. government, state and local governments, foreign governments, and heavily regulated organizations directly and through our partners. Selling to government and regulated customers involves significant costs and operational efforts that arise from special laws, regulations, certification or clearance requirements, procurement processes, contract terms, and customer requirements, including potential supply chain restrictions (such as "supply chain risk" designations for our suppliers or partners). We may fail to win sufficient government or regulated business to justify our investments. For the government and regulated business that we do win, performing under the contracts involves higher ongoing costs to meet the special requirements as well as heightened civil and criminal liability for noncompliance for us, our officers, and directors.

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

We have obtained various government certifications and authorizations that are required to support sales opportunities to the government, including FedRAMP High and Department of War (DoW) Impact Level 4 and 5. We may be unable to achieve government certifications or facility security clearances with certain government agencies, or we may be required to make unexpected changes to our business, operations or products to obtain or sustain such certifications or facility clearances. As a result, our ability to sell into the government sector could be restricted until we satisfy the requirements of such certifications or facility clearances. In addition, we plan to continue to pursue additional authorizations, including personnel security clearances that allow us to support the U.S. national security community. Obtaining and maintaining national security clearances within a global enterprise will require significant operational investments and the successful implementation of new processes, systems, and controls. In addition, unlike our standard commercial offering, we anticipate delivering our platform and other offerings into customer environments, which presents risks and challenges arising from having less visibility into and control over the operation and security of our platform and other offerings.

A substantial majority of our sales to government entities have been made indirectly through our distribution and reseller partners; and, as our capabilities and compliance posture mature, we may begin engaging directly with government customers to accelerate growth, which can expose us to additional government procurement requirements, higher compliance burdens, and other risks associated with directly contracting with government entities. Doing business with government entities, whether directly or indirectly, presents a variety of risks. Many government entities need significant education regarding our business model, as well as the uses and benefits of our platform. The procurement process for governments and their agencies is highly competitive and time-consuming, and government decisions about their procurement needs have been and may in the future be, in certain circumstances, subject to political influence. Beyond this, demand for our platform may be adversely impacted by public sector budgetary cycles, changes in government procurement policies, and funding availability that in any given fiscal cycle may be reduced or delayed, including in connection with an extended federal government shutdown. Further, if we or our partners are successful in receiving a competitive contract award, that award could be challenged by one or more competitive bidders in a legal action known as a "bid protest." Bid protests may result in an increase in expenses related to obtaining or preserving contract awards or an unfavorable modification or loss of an award. In the event a bid protest is unsuccessful, the resulting delay in the startup and funding of the work under these contracts may cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated. As a result of these lengthy and uncertain sales cycles, it is difficult for us to predict the timing of entering into customer agreements with government entities or with our distribution and reseller partners in the government market.

In addition, public sector customers may have contractual, statutory, or regulatory rights to terminate current contracts with us or our third-party distributors or resellers for convenience or default. If a contract is terminated for convenience, we may only be able to collect fees for platform consumption prior to termination and settlement expenses. If a contract is terminated due to a default, we may be liable for excess costs incurred by the customer for procuring alternative products or services or be precluded from doing further business with government entities. Further, entities providing products or services to governments, whether directly or indirectly, are required to comply with a variety of complex laws, regulations, and contractual provisions relating to the formation, administration, and performance of government contracts. Such laws, regulations, and contractual provisions impose compliance obligations that are more burdensome than those typically encountered in commercial contracts, and they often give customers in the government market substantial rights and remedies, many of which are not typically found in commercial contracts. These rights and remedies may relate to intellectual property, price protection, the accuracy of information provided to the government, incident notification, termination rights, and prohibition against any government indemnification obligations. For example, the government or other people on behalf of the government can bring civil actions under the False Claims Act where a contractor presents a false or fraudulent claim to the government for payment or approval, which can result in substantial civil penalties and/or prohibition from doing business with the government. In addition, governments may use procurement requirements as an alternative to lawmaking, and impose stricter requirements than would apply to the commercial sector in areas that are not directly related to the purchase. These rules and requirements may apply to us or third-party resellers or distributors whose practices we may not control. Such parties' non-compliance could result in repercussions for us with respect to contractual and customer satisfaction issues.

Further, federal, state, and local governments and regulators routinely investigate and audit contractors for compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and contractual provisions, and changes in government policies may affect the level of oversight of government contractors and areas of focus (such as recent executive orders that affect compliance with nondiscrimination plans). If, as a result of an audit or investigation, it is determined that we have failed to comply with applicable requirements, we may be subject to civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, including termination of contracts, forfeiture of profits or payments we have received, costs associated with the triggering of price reduction clauses, fines, loss of a government certification or clearance, and suspensions or debarment from future government business, and we may suffer reputational harm.

Our customers include a number of non-U.S. governments, to which similar procurement, budgetary, contract, and audit risks of U.S. government contracting also apply, particularly in certain emerging markets where our customer base is less established. Such sales may also heighten our exposure to liabilities under anti-corruption laws. In addition, compliance with complex regulations, security certifications, and contracting provisions in a variety of jurisdictions can be expensive and consume significant financial and management resources. In certain jurisdictions, our ability to win business may be constrained by political and other factors unrelated to our competitive position in the market. Further, our business and results of operations could be harmed if our efforts to do business with governments and heavily regulated organizations do not generate the anticipated increases in revenue. Each of these difficulties could materially adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Finally, we are increasingly investing in doing business with customers and partners in heavily regulated commercial industries, such as the financial services and health care industries. Existing and prospective customers, such as those in these industries, may be required to comply with more stringent regulations in connection with using and implementing our platform or services or particular regulations regarding third-party vendors that may be interpreted differently by different customers and partners. In addition, regulatory agencies may impose requirements toward third-party vendors of regulated entities generally, or our company in particular, that we may not be able to, or may choose not to, meet. We may make special compliance commitments that are more expensive to satisfy than we anticipate, or that we are unable to satisfy. In addition, customers in these heavily regulated areas and their regulators often have a right to conduct audits of our systems, products, and practices. In the event that one or more customers or their regulators determine that some aspect of our business does not meet regulatory requirements, we may be limited in our ability to continue or expand our business.

***If we lose key members of our management team or are unable to attract and retain the executives and employees we need to support our operations and growth, our business and future growth prospects may be harmed.***

Our success depends in part on the continued services of our executive officers, as well as our other key employees in the areas of research and development and sales and marketing.

From time to time, there may be changes in our executive management team or other key employees resulting from the hiring or departure of these personnel. Our executive officers and other key employees are employed on an at-will basis, which means that these personnel could terminate their employment with us at any time. For example, we have experienced several executive leadership transitions since the beginning of fiscal 2025: in February 2024, Sridhar Ramaswamy was appointed to replace Frank Slootman as Chief Executive Officer upon his retirement; in September 2024, Vivek Raghunathan was appointed as SVP, Engineering and Support to replace Grzegorz Czajkowski, who resigned in July 2024; in March 2025, Michael Gannon was appointed as Chief Revenue Officer to replace Christopher W. Degnan; and in September 2025, Brian Robins was appointed to replace Michael P. Scarpelli as Chief Financial Officer upon his retirement. The loss of additional executive officers or any significant change in key leadership could harm morale, cause additional personnel to depart, introduce operational delays or risks as departing employees are replaced and successors learn our business, or disrupt operations and implementation of business strategy as result of any changes such successors may make, each of which could harm our operating results.

In addition, to execute our growth plan, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for these personnel is intense, especially for engineers experienced in designing and developing cloud-based data platform products, including products with AI capabilities, and experienced sales, customer support, and professional services personnel. We also are dependent on the continued service of our existing software engineers because of the sophistication of our platform.

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

In order to support our growing business, we will need to continue to hire in new locations around the world and manage remote/hybrid working policies in certain areas, which may add to the complexity and costs of our business operations. From time to time, we have experienced, and we expect to continue to experience, difficulty in hiring and retaining employees with appropriate qualifications, including skilled AI engineers, many of whom are in high demand and command high compensation packages. Many of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater resources than we have and can provide more competitive compensation and benefits. In addition, we require the majority of our employees to work from a physical office, while certain of our competitors allow remote work environments. In addition, prospective and existing employees often consider the value and other terms of the equity awards they receive to be an important part of their employment compensation package. Our stock price declined significantly during portions of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025. If the actual or perceived value of our equity awards declines or undergoes significant volatility, or if our existing employees receive significant proceeds from liquidating their previously vested equity awards, it may adversely affect our ability to recruit and retain key employees. Furthermore, current and prospective employees may believe that their equity award offers have limited upside, and our competitors may be able to offer more appealing compensation packages. In order to retain our existing employees and manage potential attrition, including as a result of any stock price decreases and market volatility that impact the actual or perceived value of our equity awards, we may issue additional equity awards or provide our employees with increased cash compensation, which could negatively impact our results of operations and be dilutive to stockholders. For example, our stock-based compensation, net of amounts capitalized, represented 34% of our revenue for fiscal 2026 and 41% for fiscal 2025, and we expect stock-based compensation to remain substantial even if we are successful in reducing it as a percentage of our revenue. Finally, if we hire employees from competitors or other companies, their former employers may attempt to assert that we or these employees have breached our or their legal obligations, resulting in a diversion of our time and resources.

We also believe our culture has been a key contributor to our success to date and that the critical nature of the platform that we provide promotes a sense of greater purpose and fulfillment in our employees. As our workforce becomes larger and more distributed around the world or as our executive management team changes, we may not be able to maintain important aspects of our culture. Any failure to preserve our culture could negatively affect our ability to retain and recruit personnel. If we fail to attract and recruit new personnel or fail to retain and motivate our current personnel, our business and future growth prospects would be harmed.

***Unfavorable conditions in our industry or the global economy, or reductions in cloud spending, or lower than expected consumption, could limit our ability to grow our business and negatively affect our results of operations.***

Our results of operations may vary based on the impact of changes in our industry or the global economy on us or our customers and potential customers. Negative conditions or volatility in the general economy both in the United States and abroad, including conditions resulting from changes in gross domestic product growth, financial and credit market fluctuations, bank failures, international trade relations, inflation, tariffs and trade wars, extended U.S. federal government shutdowns, and interest rate fluctuations, or the existence of epidemics, pandemics or other public health crises, political turmoil and geopolitical conflicts, natural catastrophes, warfare, or terrorist attacks on the United States, Europe, the Asia-Pacific region, Japan, or elsewhere, could cause a decrease in business investments, including spending on cloud technologies, and negatively affect the growth of our business. For example, the existing tariffs and continued threats of new or increased tariffs, sanctions, trade restrictions and trade barriers, ongoing changes in the United States and foreign government trade policies, various ongoing military conflicts and rising geopolitical tensions globally, including the ongoing military conflicts in the Middle East and between Russia and Ukraine as well as the rising tensions between China and Taiwan, have created volatility in the global capital markets, have had and may continue to have disruptive impact on the global economy, and could have further global economic consequences, including disruptions of the global supply chain. Tariffs may also increase the costs for AWS, Azure, and/or GCP to provide cloud infrastructure services, which may in turn increase the costs for us to use such services when we renew our agreements with them. In addition, unfavorable conditions in the general economy, including tariffs and trade wars, may negatively impact our customers' budgets or cash flow, which could impact the contract terms, including payment terms, our customers demand from us. Competitors, many of whom are larger and have greater financial resources than we do, may respond to challenging market conditions by lowering prices in an attempt to attract our customers. We cannot predict the timing, strength, or duration of any economic slowdown, instability, or recovery, generally or within any particular industry.

***Our growth depends on the development, expansion, and success of our partner relationships.***

As part of our vision for the AI Data Cloud, we will need to grow and maintain a network of partners, including data and technology providers, data consumers, and data application developers. The relationships we have with these partners, and that our partners have with our customers, provide our customers with enhanced value from our platform and the AI Data Cloud, including Snowpark, and the Snowflake Marketplace, and Snowflake Cortex AI. Our future growth will be increasingly dependent on the success of these relationships, and if we are unsuccessful in growing and maintaining these relationships or the types and quality of data and data applications supported by or available for consumption on our platform, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Additionally, a small but increasing portion of our revenue is generated as a result of our relationships with global system integrators, managed service providers, and resellers. Increasingly, we and our customers rely on these partners to provide professional services, including customer implementations and migrations from legacy solutions and there may not be enough qualified partners available, or we may not be able to develop or maintain relationships with enough partners, to meet customer demand. While we provide our partners with training and other enablement programs, these programs may not be effective or utilized consistently, and our return on these investments may be lower than expected. In addition, new partners may require extensive training or significant time and resources to achieve productivity. If we fail to effectively manage and grow our network of these partners, or properly monitor the quality and efficacy of their interactions with our customers, our ability to attract and retain new customers and expand customer consumption of our platform may be impacted, and our operating results and growth rate may be harmed.

***If we are unable to successfully manage the growth of our professional services business and improve our profit margin from these services, our operating results could be harmed.***

Our professional services business, which performs implementation and training services for our customers, has grown larger and more complex as our product revenue has increased. We believe our future success depends in part on investment in professional services to facilitate activities such as custom development, customer code conversion and migration from legacy solutions and adoption of our platform, especially with large enterprises. Our sales efforts have been and will continue to be focused on helping our customers more quickly realize the value of our platform and the AI Data Cloud rather than on the profitability of our professional services business. We price our professional services based on the anticipated cost of those services and, as a result, we expect to improve the gross profit percentage of our professional services business over time; however, if actual delivery costs exceed our estimates, our ability to achieve expected margin improvement may be adversely affected. If we are unable to manage the growth of our professional services business and improve our profit margin from these services, our operating results, including our profit margins, could be harmed.

***If we are unable to maintain and enhance our brand and reputation, our business and results of operations may be adversely affected.***

We believe that maintaining and enhancing our brand identity and reputation is critical to our relationships with, and to our ability to attract and retain, customers, partners, investors, and employees. The successful promotion of our brand depends on a number of factors, including our ability to continue to develop and deliver reliable, high-quality, and cost-effective products and services that meet the needs of our customers; our sales and marketing efforts, including effectiveness at developing a positive presence within our industry through participation in industry events and key media coverage; the influence of customer testimonials and use cases on the perception of our brand; effective integration into our platform of products and services we acquire or invest in; and our ability to differentiate our products from those of our competitors.

The promotion of our brand requires us to make substantial expenditures, which we anticipate will increase as our market becomes more competitive. Our brand promotion activities may not be successful or generate the awareness or increased revenue we expect, and even if they do, any increase in revenue may not offset the significant expenses we incur in the efforts to build our brand. In addition, independent industry or financial analysts often provide reviews of our platform, as well as products and services of our competitors, and perception of our platform in the marketplace may be significantly influenced by these reviews. If these reviews are negative, or less positive as compared to those of our competitors' products and services, our brand may be adversely affected. Negative media coverage could also adversely affect our brand and reputation. If we do not successfully maintain and enhance our brand, our business may not grow, we may have reduced pricing power relative to competitors and we could lose customers or fail to attract potential customers, or fail to hire and retain employees, all of which would materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

***If the availability of our platform does not meet our service-level commitments to our customers, our revenue may be negatively impacted.***

We typically commit to our customers that our platform will maintain a minimum service-level of availability. If we are unable to meet these commitments, including with respect to newly introduced products that are initially covered under an existing service-level commitment but may eventually require a different level of availability, we may be obligated to provide customers with additional capacity at no cost, which could significantly affect our revenue. We rely on public cloud providers, such as AWS, Azure, and GCP, and any availability interruption in the public cloud could result in us not meeting our service-level commitments to our customers. In some cases, we may not have a contractual right with our public cloud providers that compensates us for any losses due to availability interruptions in the public cloud. Further, any failure to meet our service-level commitments could damage our reputation and hinder the adoption of our platform, and we could face loss of revenue from reduced future consumption of our platform. Any service-level failures could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

***We assume liability for data breaches, intellectual property infringement, violation of applicable laws, and other claims, which exposes us to substantial potential liability.***

In our customer contracts and certain strategic partnership agreements, we assume liability for certain security breaches and data protection claims caused by us and by certain third parties on which we rely. Our contracts with customers, partners, investors, and other third parties may also include indemnification provisions under which we agree to defend and indemnify them against claims and losses arising from alleged infringement, misappropriation, or other violation of intellectual property rights, violation of applicable laws, security breaches, breach of warranties, and for other matters. Such claims may arise more often (and if they arise, may be more complex to litigate) as we begin to extend our platform and other offerings into customer and partner environments over which we exercise significantly less or no control. We may not be successful in our attempt to limit our liability and indemnity obligations and obtain corresponding liability and indemnification obligations and security, privacy, data protection, and other compliance obligations from vendors and partners that would require them to contribute to our obligations, and an event triggering our liability or indemnity obligations could give rise to multiple claims involving multiple customers or other third parties. In addition, there have been instances where our customers or other business partners attempt to claim indemnification even if indemnification obligations have not been triggered, and defending against such claims can be time-consuming and expensive. There is no assurance that our applicable insurance coverage, if any, would cover, in whole or in part, any such liability or indemnity obligations. We may be liable for up to the full amount of the contractual claims, which could result in substantial liability or material disruption to our business or could negatively impact our relationships with customers or other third parties, cause reputational harm, reduce demand for our platform, and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

***Acquisitions, strategic investments, partnerships, or alliances could be difficult to secure or consummate, pose integration challenges, divert the attention of management, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value, and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.***

We have in the past and may in the future seek to acquire or invest in businesses, joint ventures, and platform technologies that we believe could complement or expand our platform, enhance our technology, or otherwise offer growth opportunities. For example, since the beginning of fiscal 2025, we have acquired several companies, including Night Shift Development, Inc., a privately-held data analytics firm focused on the U.S. public sector; Datavolo, Inc., a privately-held company that built a dataflow infrastructure to support the creation, management, and observability of multimodal data pipelines for enterprise AI; Crunchy Data Solutions, Inc., a privately-held company that provided PostgreSQL technology; TensorStax, Inc., a privately-held company that built autonomous AI agents for data engineering services; and Observe, Inc., a privately-held company that built an AI-powered observability platform. Such transactions have in the past and may in the future divert the attention of management and cause us to incur various expenses in identifying, investigating, financing, and pursuing suitable opportunities, whether or not the transactions are completed, and may result in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures. In particular, we may encounter difficulties or unexpected costs integrating the businesses, technologies, products, personnel, contracts or operations of any acquired companies, particularly if the key personnel of an acquired company choose not to work for us, their software is not easily adapted to work with our platform, or we have difficulty retaining the customers, suppliers, or partners of any acquired business due to changes in ownership, management, or otherwise. Any such transactions that we are able to complete may not result in the revenue, synergies, or other benefits we expect to achieve, which could result in substantial impairment charges. These transactions could also result in dilutive issuances of equity securities or the incurrence of debt, which could adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, we may inherit commitments, risks, and liabilities of companies that we acquire that we are unable to successfully mitigate and that may be amplified by our existing business. Finally, disputes or litigation can arise out of our acquisitions or investments from time to time, including in connection with the achievement of earnouts.

As part of our corporate development program, we invest in companies to support our key business initiatives. These companies range from early, growth stage companies to mature companies with established revenue streams. Our strategic investments are subject to risk of inability to achieve the desired strategic synergies and partial or total loss of investment capital. Furthermore, our competitors may invest in these companies alongside us, and may obtain information about our corporate development program or other business plans. The financial success of our investment is typically dependent on an exit in favorable market conditions. To the extent any of the companies in which we invest are not successful, which can include failure to achieve strategic business objectives as well as failure to achieve a favorable exit, we could recognize an impairment or loss on all or part of our investment, which we have done in the past. In addition, in certain cases we are required to consolidate one or more of our strategic investee's financial results into ours. Fluctuations in any such investee's financial results, due to general market conditions, bank failures, or otherwise, can negatively affect our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, or the price of our common stock. If one or more of such investees fails to timely provide us with information necessary for the preparation of our consolidated financial statements and disclosures, we may be unable to report our financial results in a timely manner, which would negatively affect our business and the price of our common stock.

We also enter into strategic partnerships where we agree to incorporate third-party technologies into our platform and services. In some cases, we have revenue-sharing arrangements with our strategic partners who supply the technology. We may be unable to reach agreements with potential strategic partners on terms acceptable to us, if at all, and we may not be successful in partnering with the companies that have the technologies we need. Such strategic partnerships are also subject to a number of risks, including with respect to performance issues, security controls, indemnification obligations, and ownership of intellectual property and other proprietary information. Any of the foregoing could harm our business, financial position, and results of operations.

***Seasonality may cause fluctuations in our remaining performance obligations or in customer consumption.***

Historically, we have received a higher volume of orders from new and existing customers in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year. As a result, we have historically seen higher non-GAAP free cash flow in the first and fourth fiscal quarters of each year, and our sequential growth in remaining performance obligations has historically been the highest in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year. We may not be successful in our attempt to align our cash outflows with our cash receipts, particularly since we expect this seasonality to become more pronounced as we continue to target large enterprise customers based on their procurement, budgeting, and deployment cycles. In addition, while consumption is typically lower during holidays, the magnitude of any decrease is difficult to predict and that may result in inaccurate financial guidance. For more information about non-GAAP free cash flow, including a definition of non-GAAP free cash flow and a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), to free cash flow, see the section titled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

***Natural disasters, public health crises, and other catastrophic events could have an adverse impact on our business, operations, and the markets and communities in which we, our partners, and our customers operate.***

Our platform and the public cloud infrastructure on which our platform relies are vulnerable to damage or interruption from catastrophic events, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, fires, power loss, telecommunication failures, cyber attacks, military conflict or war, terrorist attacks, criminal acts, sabotage, other intentional acts of vandalism and misconduct, geopolitical events, and epidemics, pandemics or other public health crises. Some of our U.S. corporate offices in which we operate and certain of the public cloud data centers on which our platform runs are located in the San Francisco Bay Area and Pacific Northwest, regions known for seismic activity. Despite any precautions we may take, the occurrence of a natural disaster or other unanticipated problems at our facilities or the facilities of our public cloud providers could result in disruptions, outages, and other performance and quality problems.

Our customers are also subject to the risk of catastrophic events. If any such events occur, demand for our platform may decrease.

If we are unable to develop and maintain adequate plans to ensure that our business functions continue to operate during and after a catastrophic event and to execute successfully on those plans if such an event occurs, our business could be seriously harmed.

***Our current operations are international in scope, and we plan further geographic expansion, creating a variety of operational challenges.***

A component of our growth strategy involves the further expansion of our operations and customer base internationally. Customer accounts outside the United States generated 25% of our revenue for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026. We are continuing to adapt to and develop strategies to address international markets, but there is no guarantee that such efforts will have the desired effect. For example, we anticipate that we will need to establish relationships with new partners in order to expand or continue our expansion into certain countries, including China, and if we fail to identify, establish, and maintain such relationships, we may be unable to execute on our expansion plans. We expect that our international activities will continue to grow for the foreseeable future as we continue to pursue opportunities in existing and new international markets, which will require significant dedication of management attention and financial resources.

Our current and future international business and operations involve a variety of risks, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• slower than anticipated public cloud adoption by international businesses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• differing and potentially more onerous regulations compared to the United States, including relating to data privacy and security, including the unauthorized use of, or access to, commercial and personal information, and data localization;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in a specific country's or region's political, economic, or legal and regulatory environment, including the effects of pandemics, tariffs and trade wars, sanctions, or long-term environmental risks;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the need to adapt and localize our platform for China, Saudi Arabia, and other countries, including as a result of data sovereignty requirements, and the engineering and related costs that we may incur when making those changes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• greater difficulty collecting accounts receivable and longer payment cycles;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• unexpected changes in, or the selective application of, trade relations, regulations, or laws;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• compliance with requirements to hire local employees to perform certain specific functions, such as Saudi Arabia's Regional Headquarters Program, which may not align with how we would otherwise operate our business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• new, evolving, and potentially more stringent regulations relating to AI Technology;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• labor regulations that are generally more advantageous to employees as compared to the United States, including regulations governing terminations in locations that do not permit at-will employment and deemed hourly wage and overtime regulations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• challenges inherent in efficiently managing, and the increased costs associated with, an increased number of employees over large geographic distances, including the need to implement appropriate systems, policies, benefits, and compliance programs that are specific to each jurisdiction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• difficulties in managing a business in new markets with diverse cultures, languages, customs, legal systems, alternative dispute systems, and regulatory systems;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased travel, real estate, infrastructure, and legal compliance costs associated with international operations, including increased costs associated with changing and potentially conflicting environmental regulations and requirements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• currency exchange rate fluctuations and the resulting effect on our revenue, RPO, and expenses, and the cost and risk of utilizing mitigating derivative transactions and entering into hedging transactions to the extent we do so in the future;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limitations on, or charges or taxes associated with, our ability to reinvest earnings from operations in one country to fund the capital needs of our operations in other countries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• laws and business practices favoring local competitors or general market preferences for local vendors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• limited or insufficient intellectual property protection or difficulties obtaining, maintaining, protecting, or enforcing our intellectual property rights, including our trademarks and patents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• political instability, military conflict or war, or terrorist activities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exposure to liabilities under anti-corruption and anti-money laundering laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended (FCPA), U.S. bribery laws, the U.K. Bribery Act, and similar laws and regulations in other jurisdictions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• burdens of complying with laws and regulations related to taxation; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• regulations, adverse tax burdens, and foreign exchange controls that could make it difficult or costly to repatriate earnings and cash.

We expect to invest substantial time and resources to further expand our international operations, and, if we are unable to do so successfully and in a timely manner, our business and results of operations could suffer.

***As we are offering our platform in China through a Chinese-owned operating partner to Chinese affiliates of certain multi-national customers, risks associated with economic, political, and social events in China or tension between China and the U.S. or other countries could negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.***

We are currently offering our platform in China to Chinese affiliates of certain multi-national customers. Under Chinese law, we must offer our platform through a Chinese-owned operating partner, which must assume control and management of certain aspects of our platform and serve as the seller of record. This has required a new operating and go-to-market model, and there is a risk that functionality or customer experience may suffer and that we may incur liability or brand impairment arising from the operating partner's actions, inactions, or ineffectiveness. In addition, developing and operationalizing this new model is a significant investment and may not generate expected returns.

We may also encounter the following risks:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertainty regarding the validity, enforceability, and scope of protection for intellectual property rights in China and the practical difficulties of enforcing such rights;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• inability to secure our intellectual property and other proprietary information located in China from unauthorized access or theft;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• heightened risks of cyber incidents, which could lead to the unauthorized access to or exposure of customer data;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• inability to comply with extensive and evolving Chinese laws that are often ambiguous or inconsistently enforced;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in tax regulations that may impact the economics of our China operating model;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• economic or political instability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a slowdown in China's economy; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a government-controlled foreign exchange rate and capital controls, including limitations on the convertibility of the Chinese yuan to other currencies.

Further, geopolitical, economic, and national security tensions or conflicts between China and the United States or other countries could lead to further restrictions on our ability to operate in China, increased scrutiny or suspension of our business operations in China, new regulations, or unwillingness of certain customers to do business with us, including the U.S. federal government.

Due to these and other risks, our operations in China may be more expensive or difficult than anticipated or they may fail, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and growth prospects.

***We may require additional capital to support the growth of our business, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.***

We have funded our operations since inception primarily through equity and debt financings and payments received from our customers. We cannot be certain if our operations will generate sufficient cash to fully fund our ongoing operations or the growth of our business. We intend to continue to make investments to support our business, which may require us to engage in further equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. Additional financing may not be available on terms favorable to us, if at all, particularly during times of market volatility and general economic instability. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to invest in future growth opportunities, which could harm our business, operating results, and financial condition. Any debt we incur could give the debt holders rights senior to our stockholders to make claims on our assets and could involve covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may limit our ability to obtain additional capital, pursue business opportunities and strategic transactions, repurchase stock and pay dividends on our common stock. For example, the holders of our 0% convertible senior notes due 2027 and 0% convertible senior notes due 2029 (collectively, the Notes) have rights senior to holders of our common stock to make claims on our assets, and the indentures governing each series of the Notes, as supplemented (each an Indenture and together, the Indentures), include customary covenants for us, such as covenants to make payment of principal and special interest (if any) and remain current in our reporting obligations with the SEC (though no financial or operating covenants or restrictions on us paying dividends or issuing or repaying, prepaying or repurchasing our other securities or indebtedness). Furthermore, if we issue additional equity securities, including shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the Notes, stockholders will experience dilution, and in some cases we may issue new equity securities that have rights senior to those of our common stock. Because our decision to issue securities in the future will depend on numerous considerations, including factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing, or nature of any future issuances of debt or equity securities. As a result, our stockholders bear the risk of future issuances of debt or equity securities reducing the value of our common stock and diluting their interests.

***Servicing our debt requires a significant amount of cash, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to pay our substantial debt.***

Our ability to make scheduled payments of the principal of, to pay special interest, if any, on or to refinance the Notes depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not continue to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to service our debt and make necessary capital expenditures. If we are unable to generate such cash flow, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring debt, or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. Our ability to refinance the Notes will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at such time. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our debt obligations.

***We may not have enough available cash or the ability to raise the funds necessary to pay cash upon conversion of the Notes or to repurchase the Notes upon a fundamental change, and any future debt may contain limitations on our ability to do so.***

Holders of each series of the Notes will have the right, subject to certain conditions and limited exceptions, to require us to repurchase all or any portion of their Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change prior to the maturity date of such series of the Notes (as defined and described in the applicable Indenture). Upon any conversion of Notes, we will be required to make cash payments to settle such conversion unless we elect to fully settle it by delivering shares of our common stock (other than any cash paid in lieu of delivering fractional shares). We may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time if we are required to repurchase surrendered Notes or settle the conversion of Notes in cash. In addition, our ability to repurchase Notes or to pay cash upon conversions of the Notes may be limited by law, regulatory authority, or agreements governing our future indebtedness. Our failure to repurchase the Notes or to pay any cash upon future conversions of the Notes, when required by the Indentures, would constitute a default under the relevant Indenture. A default under either Indenture or the fundamental change itself could also lead to a default under agreements governing any future indebtedness. If the repayment of such future indebtedness were to be accelerated after any applicable notice or grace periods, we may not have sufficient funds to repay the indebtedness and repurchase the Notes or make cash payments upon conversions thereof.

***The conditional conversion feature of the Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.***

If the conditional conversion feature of a series of the Notes is triggered, holders of such Notes will be entitled to elect to convert their Notes at any time during specified periods, as described in the applicable Indenture. For example, holders of each series of the Notes can convert their Notes at any time during the fiscal quarter ending April 30, 2026 as the last reported sale price of our common stock was greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for the Notes for at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2026. If one or more holders elect to convert their Notes, we would be required to settle a portion or all of our conversion obligation through the payment of cash, unless we elect to fully settle such conversion by delivering shares of our common stock (other than any cash paid in lieu of delivering fractional shares), which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, even if holders do not elect to convert their Notes, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the relevant series of Notes as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital.

***We are exposed to fluctuations in currency exchange rates, which could negatively affect our results of operations and our ability to invest and hold our cash.***

Our sales are currently denominated in U.S. dollars, Euros, British pounds, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, Brazilian reals, and Indian rupees, and will likely be denominated in other currencies in the future. Because we report our results of operations and revenue in U.S. dollars, we currently face exposure to foreign currency translation risk and may in the future face other foreign currency risks. If we are not able to successfully hedge against the risks associated with currency fluctuations, our results of operations could be adversely affected. For example, a strengthening of the U.S. dollar could increase the real cost of our platform to international customers, which could adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, as our international operations expand, an increasing portion of our operating expenses is incurred outside the United States. These operating expenses are denominated in foreign currencies and are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Exposure to these risks and fluctuations could adversely affect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

***If our estimates or judgments relating to our critical accounting estimates prove to be incorrect, our results of operations could be adversely affected.***

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes appearing elsewhere herein. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, as provided in the section titled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Estimates." The results of these estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. Our results of operations may be adversely affected if our assumptions change or if actual circumstances differ from those in our assumptions, which could cause our results of operations to fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, resulting in a decline in the market price of our common stock.

**Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property**

***Our intellectual property rights may not protect our business or provide us with a competitive advantage.***

To be successful, we must protect our business, technology and brand in the United States and other jurisdictions through trademarks, trade secrets, patents, copyrights, service marks, invention assignments, contractual restrictions, and other intellectual property rights and confidentiality procedures. Despite our efforts to implement these protections, they may not protect our business or provide us with a competitive advantage for a variety of reasons, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the failure by us to obtain patents and other intellectual property rights for important innovations or maintain appropriate confidentiality and other protective measures to establish and maintain our trade secrets;

------

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to the extent a customer, partner, or other entity owns any intellectual property created through a professional services, research, collaboration, or other engagement, our inability to use or monetize that intellectual property as part of our business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertainty in, and evolution of, legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability, and scope of protection of intellectual property rights;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• potential invalidation of our intellectual property rights through administrative processes or litigation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our inability to detect and protect against infringement or other misappropriation of our intellectual property rights by third parties;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertainty regarding the applicability of intellectual property protections to AI Technology (including outputs generated from AI Technology); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• other practical, resource, or business limitations on our ability to enforce our rights.

Further, the laws of certain foreign countries, particularly China and certain other developing countries, do not provide the same level of protection of corporate proprietary information and assets, such as intellectual property, trademarks, trade secrets, know-how, and records, as the laws of the United States. As a result, we may encounter significant problems in protecting and defending our intellectual property or proprietary rights abroad. We may also be exposed to material risks of theft or unauthorized reverse engineering of our proprietary information and other intellectual property, including technical data, data sets, or other sensitive information. Our efforts to enforce our intellectual property rights in such foreign countries may be inadequate to obtain a significant commercial advantage from the intellectual property that we develop, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Moreover, if we are unable to prevent the disclosure of our trade secrets to third parties, or if our competitors independently develop any of our trade secrets, we may not be able to establish or maintain a competitive advantage in our market, which could seriously harm our business.

Litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property or proprietary rights, protect our trade secrets, protect our trademarks, or determine the validity and scope of proprietary rights claimed by others. Any litigation, whether or not resolved in our favor, could result in significant expense to us, divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel, and result in counterclaims with respect to infringement of intellectual property rights by us. If we are unable to prevent third parties from infringing upon or misappropriating our intellectual property or are required to incur substantial expenses defending our intellectual property rights, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

***We have in the past and may in the future become subject to intellectual property disputes, which are costly and may subject us to significant liability and increased costs of doing business.***

We are from time to time subject to intellectual property disputes. We compete in markets where there are a large number of patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other intellectual and proprietary rights, as well as disputes regarding infringement of these rights. We are currently subject to a class action lawsuit alleging copyright infringement in connection with our large language model training. In addition, many of the holders of patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other intellectual and proprietary rights have extensive intellectual property portfolios and greater resources than we do to enforce their rights. As compared to our large competitors, our patent portfolio is relatively undeveloped and may not provide a material deterrent to such assertions or provide us with a strong basis to counterclaim or negotiate settlements. Further, to the extent assertions are made against us by entities that hold patents but are not operating companies, our patent portfolio may not provide deterrence because such entities are not concerned with counterclaims.

Any current or future intellectual property litigation to which we become a party may require us to do one or more of the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• cease selling, licensing, or using products, features, or data sets that incorporate the intellectual property rights that we allegedly infringe, misappropriate, or violate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• require us to change the name of our products or services;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• make substantial payments for legal fees, settlement payments, or other costs or damages, including indemnification of third parties;

------

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• obtain a license or enter into a royalty agreement, either of which may not be available on reasonable terms or at all, in order to obtain the right to sell or use the relevant intellectual property; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• redesign the allegedly infringing products to avoid infringement, misappropriation, or violation, which could be costly, time-consuming, or impossible.

Intellectual property litigation is typically complex, time consuming, and expensive to resolve and would divert the time and attention of our management and technical personnel. It may also result in adverse publicity, which could harm our reputation and ability to attract or retain employees, customers, or partners. As we grow, we may experience a heightened risk of allegations of intellectual property infringement. An adverse result in any litigation claims against us could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

***If we use open-source software inconsistent with our policies and procedures or the license terms applicable to such software, we could be subject to legal expenses, damages, or costly remediation or disruption to our business.***

We use open-source software, including in our platform and in our professional service engagements. From time to time, companies that use third-party open-source software have faced claims challenging the use of such open-source software and their compliance with the terms of the applicable open-source license. We may be subject to suits by parties claiming ownership of what we believe to be open-source software or claiming non-compliance with the applicable open-source licensing terms. Additionally, despite our policies and procedures designed to govern our use of open-source software, we may incorporate open-source software with onerous licensing terms, including the obligation to make our source code available for others to use or modify without compensation to us, or inadvertently use third-party open-source software in a manner that exposes us to claims of non-compliance with the applicable terms of such license, including claims for infringement of intellectual property rights or for breach of contract. If we receive an allegation that we have violated an open-source license, we may incur significant legal expenses, be subject to damages, be required to redesign our product to remove the open-source software or publicly release certain portions of our proprietary source code, or be required to comply with onerous license restrictions, any of which could have a material impact on our business. Even in the absence of a claim, if we discover the use of open-source software inconsistent with our policies, we could expend significant time and resources to replace the open-source software or obtain a commercial license, if available. All of these risks are heightened by the fact that the ownership of open-source software can be uncertain, leading to litigation, that many of the licenses applicable to open-source software have not been interpreted by courts, and that these licenses could be construed to impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to commercialize our products. Any use of open-source software inconsistent with our policies or licensing terms could harm our business and financial position.

**Risks Related to Our Legal, Regulatory, and Tax Environment**

***We are subject to stringent and changing obligations related to data, including data privacy and security, and the failure or perceived failure to comply with these obligations could result in significant fines and liability or otherwise result in substantial harm to our business and prospects.***

We are subject to data privacy and protection laws, regulations, guidance, external and internal policies and other documentation, industry standards, certifications, and contractual and other obligations that apply to the collection, transmission, storage, use, and other processing of personal and sensitive information. These obligations are rapidly evolving, extensive, complex, and include inconsistencies and uncertainties. Examples of recent and anticipated developments that have impacted or could impact our business include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The European Union's (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the United Kingdom's General Data Protection Regulation (U.K. GDPR) established strict requirements applicable to the handling of personal information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The EU's Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), which became effective as of January 17, 2025, applies to financial entities, such as banks, insurance companies, and investment firms, as well as their information and communication technology third-party service providers. DORA aims to promote resiliency against operational disruptions in the financial sector.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP Act) imposes strict rules regarding the collection, use, processing and storage of personal data in India. The phased implementation of the DPDP Act began in November 2025, which is expected to become fully effective on May 14, 2027.

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The EU has proposed the Regulation on Privacy and Electronic Communications, which, if adopted, would impose new obligations on using personal information in the context of electronic communications, particularly with respect to online tracking technologies and direct marketing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Certain other jurisdictions have enacted data localization laws and cross-border personal information transfer laws, such as Brazil, China, and Saudi Arabia, which could make it more difficult for us to transfer personal information across jurisdictions (such as transferring or receiving personal or other sensitive information that originates in the EU, China, or Saudi Arabia), or to enable our customers to transfer or replicate their data across jurisdictions using our platform. Existing mechanisms that may facilitate cross-border personal information transfers may change or be invalidated. Because our business model involves transmitting and mobilizing data across geographical areas, an inability or material limitation on our ability to transfer personal data to the United States or other countries could materially impact our business operations and revenue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In the United States, federal, state, and local governments have enacted or proposed data privacy and security laws and regulations, including data breach notification laws, personal data privacy laws, cross-border data transfer regimes, and consumer protection laws. For example, the U.S. Department of Justice issued a rule entitled "Preventing Access to U.S. Sensitive Personal Data and Government-Related Data by Countries of Concern or Covered Persons," which places prohibitions or restrictions on certain data transactions involving the transfer of certain personal information to countries of concern (e.g., China, Russia, Iran) or individuals/entities located in or subject to the control of those jurisdictions. This rule impacts certain business activities such as vendor engagements, employment of certain individuals, and investor agreements. Violations of the rule could lead to significant civil and criminal fines and penalties. Additionally, numerous U.S. states have enacted comprehensive privacy laws that impose certain obligations on covered businesses, including providing specific disclosures in privacy notices and affording residents with certain rights concerning their personal data. Such rights may include the right to access, correct, or delete certain personal data, and to opt-out of certain data processing activities, such as targeted advertising, profiling, and automated decision-making and, if exercised, may adversely impact our business and ability to provide our products and services. Certain states also impose stricter requirements for processing certain personal data, including sensitive information, such as conducting data privacy impact assessments. These state laws allow for statutory fines for noncompliance. For example, the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended (CCPA), provides increased privacy rights and protections, including the ability of individuals to opt out of specific disclosures of their personal information, and provides for fines and allows private litigants affected by certain data breaches to recover significant statutory damages. Other U.S. states have adopted, or are considering adopting, similar laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The certifications we maintain and the standards that apply to our platform (or those we may maintain or that may apply in the future), such as the U.S. Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP), U.S. DoW Impact Level 4 (IL4) and Impact Level 5 (IL5), Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS), International Organization for Standardization (ISO)/International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 27001, Health Information Trust Alliance Common Security Framework (HI-TRUST CSF), GovRAMP, among others, are becoming and may become more stringent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are and may become subject to new laws that specifically regulate non-personal data. For example, we are subject to certain parts of the EU's Data Act, which imposes certain data and cloud service interoperability and switching obligations to enable users to switch between cloud service providers without undue delay or cost, as well as certain requirements concerning cross-border international transfers of, and governmental access to, non-personal data outside the European Economic Area. Additionally, in the EU, the Network and Information Security Directive (NIS2) regulates resilience and incident response capabilities of entities operating in a number of sectors, including the digital infrastructure sector (such as cloud computing service providers). The deadline for transposition of NIS2 into local law was October 17, 2024; however, many of the member states in the EU have not fully transposed the Directive, leading to the opening of infringement procedures by the European Commission against the member states. Once fully implemented, non-compliance with NIS2 may lead to significant fines.

These and other similar legal and regulatory developments could contribute to legal and economic uncertainty, increase our exposure to liability, affect how we design, market, and sell our platform, and impact how we operate our business, how our customers and partners process and share data, how we process and use data, and how we transfer personal data from one jurisdiction to another, any of which could increase our costs, require us to take on more onerous obligations in our contracts, impact our ability to operate in certain jurisdictions, and/or negatively impact the types of data available on or the demand for our platform. We incur substantial costs to comply with such laws and regulations, to meet the demands of our customers relating to their own compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and to establish and maintain internal policies, self-attestations, and third-party certifications supporting our compliance programs. Our customers may delegate certain of their GDPR compliance or other privacy law obligations to us, and we may otherwise be required to expend resources to assist our customers with such compliance obligations.

Any actual or perceived non-compliance with applicable data privacy and security obligations by us, our customers, or our third-party service providers and sub-processors could result in proceedings, investigations, litigation, or claims against us by regulatory authorities, customers, or others, leading to reputational harm, higher liability and indemnity obligations, significant fines, litigation costs, additional reporting requirements or oversight, bans on processing personal information, orders to destroy or not use personal information, limitations in our ability to develop or commercialize our platform, inability to process personal information or operate in certain jurisdictions, and other damages. For example, if regulators assert that we have failed to comply with the GDPR or U.K. GDPR, we may be subject to significant fines, as well as potential data processing restrictions and penalties. In addition, private plaintiffs have become increasingly active in bringing privacy- and information security-related claims against companies, including class action claims. Some of these claims allow for the recovery of statutory damages on a per violation basis, and, if viable, carry the potential for significant statutory damages, depending on the volume of data and the number of violations. Even if we are not determined to have violated these laws and other obligations, investigations into these issues typically require the expenditure of significant resources and generate negative publicity. In addition, any failure by us or our third-party service providers and sub-processors to comply with applicable obligations could result in proceedings against us. Certain regulators, such as the FTC, may prohibit our use of certain personal information as a result of such proceedings. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We publish privacy policies, certifications and other documentation regarding our security program and our collection, processing, use, and disclosure of personal information or other confidential information. We or our vendors may fail to comply with these policies, certifications, or documentation, or may be perceived to have failed to do so. We also from time to time make public statements regarding the data privacy and security features of our products, which may draw scrutiny from regulators or private parties. Claims by regulators or private parties that we have failed to follow our published statements or documentation or otherwise violated individuals' privacy rights, misrepresented or made inaccurate claims about our products, or failed to comply with security or data protection laws, even if we are not found liable, could be expensive and time-consuming to defend and could result in adverse publicity that could harm our business.

***Issues in the development and use of AI Technology, combined with an uncertain regulatory environment, may result in reputational harm, liability, or other adverse consequences to our business operations.***

The legal and regulatory landscape applicable to AI Technology is uncertain and is evolving rapidly, which may result in new and enhanced governmental or regulatory scrutiny, litigation, confidentiality, privacy or security risks, ethical concerns, legal liability, or other complications that could adversely affect our business, reputation or financial condition, or results of operations. States, regions, and supranational bodies, including the EU and the United States, have passed or proposed new rules and regulations related to the use or sale of AI Technology. For example, the EU's Artificial Intelligence Act, which entered into force in August 2024, established a comprehensive legal framework regulating AI; Texas' Responsible Artificial Intelligence Governance Act, which went into effect on January 1, 2026, imposes obligations on developers and deployers of AI systems; California's Training Data Transparency Act, which went into effect on January 1, 2026, imposes obligations on generative AI systems or services; Colorado's Artificial Intelligence Act, which will go into effect on June 30, 2026, imposes obligations on developers and deployers of "high-risk" AI systems; and South Korea's AI Basic Act, the country's first major AI legislation, which went into effect on January 22, 2026, imposes obligations on developers and deployers of "high impact" and generative AI Technology. These regulations may impose onerous obligations related to our development, offering, and use of AI Technology and expose us to an increased risk of regulatory enforcement and litigation. If we cannot use AI Technology or that use is restricted, our business may be less efficient, or we may be at a competitive disadvantage.

------

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

In particular, there is significant uncertainty surrounding the applications of intellectual property and privacy laws to AI Technology. Intellectual property ownership and rights (including copyright) and the remedies of rights owners surrounding the use and development of AI Technology have not been fully addressed by courts or other federal or state laws or regulations, and our use of AI Technology or adoption of AI Technology into our products and services may result in disputes with respect to ownership of intellectual property, or exposure to claims of copyright or other intellectual property infringement, misappropriation, or violations of rights of publicity. In addition, our AI Technology may involve the processing of personal and other sensitive data and may be subject to laws, policies, legal obligations, and contractual requirements related to privacy, data protection, and information security. Certain privacy laws extend rights to consumers (such as the right to obtain consent or delete certain personal data) and regulate automated decision making. An alleged or actual failure to meet these obligations may lead to regulatory investigations and fines or penalties, require us to change our business practices or retrain our algorithms, or prevent or limit our use of AI Technology. For example, the FTC has required other companies to turn over or disgorge valuable insights or trainings generated through the use of AI Technology where the FTC determined such companies violated privacy and consumer protection laws. We may also be held liable for intellectual property rights infringement or misappropriation, violations of privacy rights, or other legal violations of third-party AI Technology (including outputs from AI Technology) that we use, and we may not have full recourse for any damages that we suffer (for example, our use of third-party AI Technology may be subject to limitations of liability or provide no liability coverage (e.g., free or open-source technology)). We could also face claims alleging open-source software or other license terms apply with respect to outputs from AI Technology that we believed to be available for use, and not subject to license terms or other third-party proprietary rights.

The algorithms or training methodologies used in the AI Technology we use or offer may be flawed. Data sets may be overly broad, insufficient, or contain inappropriately biased information. Our generative AI Technology may also generate outputs that are inaccurate, misleading, harmful, offensive, or otherwise flawed. This may happen if the inputs that the model relied on were inaccurate, incomplete, or flawed (including if a bad actor "poisons" the model with bad inputs or logic), or if the logic of the algorithm is flawed (a so-called "hallucination"). Such outputs may also contain copyrighted or other protected material. Our customers or others may rely on or use such outputs to their detriment, or it may lead to adverse outcomes, which may expose us to brand or reputational harm, competitive harm, and/or legal liability. Further, unauthorized use or misuse of generative AI Technology by our employees or others who have access to our systems may result in disclosure of confidential company and customer data, reputational harm, privacy law violations and legal liability. Finally, if we enable or offer services or technologies that draw scrutiny or controversy, if our use of AI Technology becomes controversial or causes ethical issues, if our customers' use our AI Technology in an improper or controversial way, or if we are perceived to overstate the capabilities or benefits of our products, services, or technologies that employ AI Technology, we may experience brand or reputational harm, competitive harm, and/or legal liability.

***We are subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, and similar laws, and non-compliance with such laws can subject us to criminal or civil liability and harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.***

We are subject to the FCPA, U.S. domestic bribery laws, the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, and other anti-corruption and anti-money laundering laws in the countries in which we conduct business. Anti-corruption and anti-bribery laws are interpreted broadly to generally prohibit companies, their employees, and their third-party intermediaries from authorizing, offering, or providing, directly or indirectly, improper payments or benefits to recipients in the public or private sector. As we increase our international sales, including in China, and sales to the public sector, we may engage with business partners and third-party intermediaries to market or resell our products and to obtain necessary permits, licenses, and other regulatory approvals. In addition, we or our third-party intermediaries may have direct or indirect interactions with officials and employees of government agencies or state-owned or affiliated entities. We can be held liable for the corrupt or other illegal activities of these third-party intermediaries, our employees, representatives, contractors, partners, and agents, even if we do not explicitly authorize such activities.

We may be held responsible for the actions of our employees, agents, customers, partners, suppliers and other third parties with which we do business if such actions violate our policies and applicable law. As we expand internationally and into the public sector market, our risks under these laws may increase.

Detecting, investigating, and resolving actual or alleged violations of anti-corruption, anti-bribery, or anti-money laundering laws can require a significant diversion of time, resources, and attention from senior management. In addition, noncompliance with anti-corruption, anti-bribery, or anti-money laundering laws could subject us to whistleblower complaints, investigations, sanctions, settlements, prosecution, enforcement actions, litigation, fines, damages, other civil or criminal penalties or injunctions, suspension or debarment from contracting with certain persons, reputational harm, adverse media coverage, and other collateral consequences. If any subpoenas or investigations are launched, or governmental or other sanctions are imposed, or if we do not prevail in any possible civil or criminal proceeding, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be harmed.

***Scrutiny and changing expectations from global regulations, our investors, customers, and employees with respect to ESG may result in additional compliance risk and costs and may impact our reputation and business.***

Companies across many industries face ongoing scrutiny related to their environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices and reporting, both in the United States and internationally. Our response to ESG disclosure requirements and stakeholder expectations may require additional investments and implementation of new practices and reporting processes, all entailing additional compliance risk and cost. To the extent we share information about our ESG practices, we could be criticized for the accuracy, adequacy, or completeness of such disclosures. In addition, we may communicate ESG goals or initiatives from time to time, which can be costly to achieve and difficult to implement. There is no assurance that we will achieve any of these goals, that our initiatives will achieve their intended outcome, and our ability to implement these ESG-related initiatives or achieve ESG-related goals may be dependent on external factors outside our control.

At the same time, anti-ESG sentiment has gained momentum across the United States, and both the federal and state governments have enacted or proposed "anti-ESG" policies or legislation or have issued related legal opinions. In addition, both federal and state governments and activist groups have increased scrutiny of private sector employment practices, asserting that certain corporate practices, such as diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), are discriminatory and unlawful. Such anti-ESG and anti-DEI related policies, legislation, initiatives and scrutiny could expose certain ESG, human capital management, or other practices we adopt to the risk of litigation, antitrust investigations or challenges by federal or state authorities, which may result in injunctions, penalties, and reputational harm.

Further, we may experience backlash from customers, government entities, advocacy groups, employees, or other stakeholders who disagree with our actual or perceived positions, or with our lack of position on social, environmental, governance, political, public policy, economic, geopolitical, or other sensitive issues. Any perceived lack of transparency about these matters could harm our brand and reputation, our employees' engagement and retention, and the willingness of our customers and partners to do business with us. Both advocates and opponents to ESG-related matters are increasingly resorting to a range of activism forms, including media campaigns and litigation, to advance their perspectives. To the extent we are subject to such activism, it may require us to incur costs or otherwise adversely impact our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

***We are subject to governmental export and import controls that could impair our ability to compete in international markets or subject us to liability if we violate the controls.***

Our platform is subject to U.S. export controls, including the U.S. Export Administration Regulations, and we incorporate encryption technology into our platform. This encryption technology may be exported outside of the United States only with the required export authorizations, including by license, a license exception, or other appropriate government authorizations, including the filing of an encryption classification request or self-classification report.

Obtaining the necessary export license or other authorization for a particular sale can be time-consuming and may result in the delay or loss of sales opportunities. Furthermore, our activities are subject to U.S. economic sanctions laws and regulations administered by various U.S. agencies, including the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control, that prohibit the sale or supply of most products and services to embargoed jurisdictions or sanctioned parties. Violations of U.S. sanctions or export control regulations can result in significant fines or penalties and possible incarceration for responsible employees and managers.

If our channel partners fail to obtain appropriate import, export, or re-export licenses or permits, we may also be adversely affected through reputational harm, as well as other negative consequences, including government investigations and penalties.

Also, various countries, in addition to the United States, regulate the import and export of certain encryption and other technology, including import and export licensing requirements, and have enacted laws that could limit our ability to distribute our platform in those countries. Changes in our platform or future changes in export and import regulations may create delays in the introduction of our platform in international markets, prevent our customers with international operations from using our platform globally, or, in some cases, prevent the export or import of our platform to certain countries, governments, or persons altogether. From time to time, various governmental agencies have proposed additional regulation of encryption technology. Any change in export or import regulations, economic sanctions, or related legislation, increased export and import controls, or change in the countries, governments, persons, or technologies targeted by such regulations, could result in decreased use of our platform by, or our decreased ability to export or sell our platform to, existing or potential customers with international operations. Any decreased use of our platform or limitation on our ability to export or sell our platform would adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

***Our international operations may subject us to greater than anticipated tax liabilities.***

We are expanding our international operations to better support our growth into international markets. Our corporate structure and associated transfer pricing policies contemplate future growth in international markets and consider the functions, risks, and assets of the various entities involved in intercompany transactions. The amount of taxes we pay in different jurisdictions depends on the application of the tax laws of various jurisdictions, including the United States, to our international business activities, changes in tax rates, new or revised tax laws or interpretations of existing tax laws and policies, tariffs, and our ability to operate our business in a manner consistent with our corporate structure and intercompany arrangements. The taxing authorities of the jurisdictions in which we operate may challenge our methodologies for pricing intercompany transactions pursuant to our intercompany arrangements or disagree with our determinations as to the income and expenses attributable to specific jurisdictions. If such a challenge or disagreement were to occur, and our position was not sustained, we could be required to pay additional taxes, interest, and penalties, which could result in one-time tax charges, higher effective tax rates, reduced cash flows, and lower overall profitability of our operations. Our financial statements could fail to reflect adequate reserves to cover such a contingency.

***Changes in tax laws or tax rulings could materially affect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.***

The tax regimes we are subject to or operate under, including income and non-income taxes, are unsettled and may be subject to significant change. Changes in tax laws, regulations, or rulings, or changes in interpretations of existing laws and regulations, could materially affect our financial position and results of operations. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and the Inflation Reduction Act (Inflation Act) made many significant changes to U.S. tax laws. For example, the Inflation Act imposes a 1% excise tax applicable to corporations traded on an established securities market (which includes the New York Stock Exchange) on the fair market value of certain stock repurchases in excess of the fair market value of stock issuances in the same taxable year. Repurchases of our common stock under current or future stock repurchase programs could result in an excise tax liability, and we are continuing to evaluate the impact that such excise tax liability, if any, may have on our aggregate tax liability. Additionally, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), enacted on July 4, 2025, modifies existing U.S. tax laws. The OBBBA includes permanent extensions of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including 100% bonus depreciation for certain qualified property, and reverses the requirement under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act to capitalize and amortize domestic research and experimentation expenses, allowing taxpayers to deduct such expenses in the year incurred for tax years beginning after December 31, 2024. The OBBBA also includes modifications to the international tax framework. Future guidance from the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities with respect to such legislation may affect us, and certain aspects thereof could be repealed or modified in future legislation.

In addition, our tax obligations and effective tax rate in the jurisdictions in which we conduct business could increase, including as a result of the base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) project that is being led by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and other initiatives led by the OECD or the European Commission.

Due to the large and expanding scale of our international business activities, these types of changes to the taxation of our activities could increase our worldwide effective tax rate, the amount of taxes imposed on our business, and our compliance costs, and harm our financial position. Such changes may also apply retroactively to our historical operations and result in taxes greater than the amounts estimated and recorded in our financial statements. We continue to monitor the impact of new global and U.S. legislation on our effective tax rate.

***Our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards may be limited.***

We have incurred substantial losses during our history, do not expect to become profitable in the near future, and may never achieve profitability. Unused U.S. federal net operating losses (NOLs) for taxable years beginning before January 1, 2018, may be carried forward to offset future taxable income, if any, until such unused NOLs expire. Under current U.S. federal income tax law, U.S. federal NOLs arising in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, can be carried forward indefinitely, but the deductibility of such U.S. federal NOLs in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2020, is limited to 80% of such year's taxable income. At the state level, there may be periods during which the use of NOLs is suspended or otherwise limited, which could accelerate or permanently increase state taxes owed.

As of January 31, 2026, we had U.S. federal, state, and foreign NOL carryforwards of $7.3 billion, $6.5 billion, and $174.5 million, respectively. Of the $7.3 billion U.S. federal NOL carryforwards, $7.2 billion may be carried forward indefinitely with utilization limited to 80% of taxable income, and the remaining $0.1 billion will begin to expire in 2032. The state NOL carryforwards begin to expire in 2027. The foreign net operating loss carryforwards may be carried forward indefinitely.

In addition, under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and corresponding provisions of state law, if a corporation undergoes an "ownership change," which is generally defined as one or more stockholders or groups of stockholders who own at least 5% of our stock increasing their ownership by more than 50 percentage points over their lowest ownership percentage within a rolling three-year period, the corporation's ability to use its pre-change NOL carryforwards to offset its post-change income or taxes may be limited. It is possible that we have experienced or may experience ownership changes as a result of shifts in our stock ownership, some of which may be outside of our control. This could limit the amount of NOLs that we can utilize annually to offset future taxable income or tax liabilities. Subsequent ownership changes and changes to the U.S. tax rules in respect of the utilization of NOLs may further affect the limitation in future years.

***Changes in our effective tax rate or tax liability may have an adverse effect on our results of operations.***

We are subject to income taxes in the United States and various foreign jurisdictions. The determination of our worldwide provision for income taxes and other tax liabilities requires significant judgment by management, and there are many transactions where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. We believe that our provision for income taxes is reasonable, but the ultimate tax outcome may differ from the amounts recorded in our consolidated financial statements and may materially affect our financial results in the period or periods in which such outcome is determined.

Our effective tax rate could increase due to several factors, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the relative amounts of income before taxes in the various jurisdictions in which we operate that have differing statutory tax rates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in tax laws, tax treaties, and regulations or the interpretation of them;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes to our assessment about our ability to realize our deferred tax assets that are based on estimates of our future results, the prudence and feasibility of possible tax planning strategies, and the economic and political environments in which we do business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the outcome of current and future tax audits, examinations, or administrative appeals; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the effects of acquisitions, divestitures, and restructurings.

Any of these developments could adversely affect our results of operations.

**Risks Related to the Ownership of Our Common Stock**

***Our stock price may be volatile, and the value of our common stock may decline.***

The market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be highly volatile and may fluctuate or decline substantially as a result of a variety of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actual or anticipated fluctuations in our financial condition or results of operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• variance in our actual or projected financial performance from expectations of securities analysts and investors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the pricing or consumption of our platform;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• updates to our projected operating and financial results;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in laws or regulations applicable to our business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• announcements by us or our competitors of significant business developments, acquisitions, investments, or new offerings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• rumors and market speculation involving us or other companies in our industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• significant data breaches, disruptions to, or other incidents involving our platform or our customers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our involvement in litigation or governmental or regulatory investigations or inquiries and the development and outcome of such litigation, investigations, or inquiries;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in senior management or key personnel;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• fluctuations in company valuations, particularly valuations of high-growth, AI, or cloud companies, perceived to be comparable to us;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the trading volume of our common stock;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• purchase and sale of our common stock by our insiders or our other stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in the anticipated future size and growth rate of our market;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our issuance or repurchase of shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for share of our common stock and any derivative transactions relating to such securities; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• general political, social, economic, and market conditions.

Broad market and industry fluctuations, as well as general economic, political, regulatory, and market conditions, such as recessions, inflation, interest rate changes, tariffs and trade wars, extended U.S. federal government shutdowns, or international currency fluctuations, may also negatively impact the market price of our common stock. In addition, technology stocks have historically experienced high levels of volatility. In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their securities have been subject to securities class action litigation. We have been, and may be in the future, the target of this type of litigation, which could result in substantial expenses and divert our management's attention. We are currently subject to a securities class action lawsuit in federal court. See the section titled "Legal Proceedings" for more information.

***Conversion of the Notes may dilute the ownership interest of our stockholders or may otherwise depress the price of our common stock.***

The conversion of the Notes may dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders. Upon conversion of the Notes, we have the option to settle the obligation in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of both. If we elect to settle our conversion obligation in shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, any sales in the public market of our common stock issuable upon such conversion could adversely affect prevailing market price of our common stock. In addition, the existence of the Notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the Notes could be used to satisfy short positions, or anticipated conversion of the Notes into shares of our common stock could depress the price of our common stock.

------

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

***The capped call transactions may affect the value of the Notes and the market price of our common stock.***

We entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions relating to each series of Notes with some of the initial purchasers (or their affiliates) and certain other financial institutions (collectively, the option counterparties). The capped call transactions are generally expected to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the relevant series of Notes or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, with such reduction or offset subject to a cap.

In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the option counterparties entered into various derivative transactions with respect to our common stock and/or purchased shares of our common stock concurrently with, or shortly after, the pricing of the Notes. They may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling shares of our common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions prior to the maturity of the Notes, and they are likely to do so during any "observation period" related to a conversion of Notes or, to the extent we exercise the relevant election under the capped call transactions, following any repurchase or redemption of the Notes, in each case as described in the Indentures. This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of our common stock or the Notes.

***We are subject to counterparty risk with respect to the capped call transactions.***

The option counterparties are financial institutions, and we will be subject to the risk that any or all of them might default under the capped call transactions. Our exposure to the credit risk of the option counterparties will not be secured by any collateral. Past global economic conditions have resulted in the actual or perceived failure or financial difficulties of many financial institutions and could adversely affect the option counterparties' performance under the capped call transactions. If an option counterparty becomes subject to insolvency proceedings, we will become an unsecured creditor in those proceedings with a claim equal to our exposure at that time under the capped call transactions with such option counterparty. Our exposure will depend on many factors but, generally, an increase in our exposure will be correlated to an increase in the market price and in the volatility of our common stock. In addition, upon a default by an option counterparty, we may suffer more dilution, the effect of which would not be compensated for, than we currently anticipate with respect to our common stock. We can provide no assurance as to the financial stability or viability of the option counterparties.

***Our issuance of additional capital stock in connection with financings, acquisitions, investments, our equity incentive plans, or otherwise will dilute all other stockholders.***

We expect to issue additional capital stock in the future that will result in dilution to all other stockholders, including issuance of shares of our common stock upon conversion of the Notes. We expect to continue to grant equity awards to employees, non-employee directors, and consultants under our equity incentive plans. We may also raise capital through equity financings in the future. As part of our business strategy, we have and may continue to acquire or make investments in companies, products, or technologies and issue equity securities to pay for any such acquisition or investment. Any such issuances of additional capital stock may cause stockholders to experience significant dilution of their ownership interests and the per share value of our common stock to decline.

***We may not realize the anticipated long-term stockholder value of our stock repurchase program, and any failure to repurchase our common stock after we have announced our intention to do so may negatively impact our stock price.***

In February 2023, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $2.0 billion of our common stock through a stock repurchase program. In August 2024, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of an additional $2.5 billion of our outstanding common stock under the stock repurchase program and extended the expiration date of the stock repurchase program from March 2025 to March 2027. Repurchases may be effected, from time to time, either on the open market (including via pre-set trading plans), in privately negotiated transactions, or through other transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws.

The timing and amount of any repurchases will be determined by management based on an evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be suspended or discontinued at any time at our discretion. Any failure to repurchase stock after we have announced our intention to do so may negatively impact our reputation, investor confidence in us, or our stock price.

------

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

The existence of our stock repurchase program could cause our stock price to be higher than it otherwise would be and could potentially reduce the market liquidity for our stock. Although our stock repurchase program is intended to enhance long-term stockholder value, there is no assurance that it will do so because the market price of our common stock may decline below the levels at which we repurchase shares, and short-term stock price fluctuations could reduce the effectiveness of the program. Repurchasing our common stock reduces the amount of cash we have available to fund working capital, capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions or investments, other business opportunities, and other general corporate projects, and we may fail to realize the anticipated long-term stockholder value of any stock repurchase program. In addition, the Inflation Act imposes an excise tax of 1% on certain corporate stock repurchases.

***If securities or industry analysts publish unfavorable or inaccurate research about our business, the market price or trading volume of our common stock could decline.***

The market price and trading volume of our common stock is heavily influenced by the way analysts interpret our financial information and other disclosures. We do not have control over these analysts. If securities analysts or industry analysts cease coverage of us, our stock price would be negatively affected. If securities or industry analysts downgrade our common stock or publish negative reports about our business, our stock price would likely decline. Further, investors and analysts may not understand how our consumption-based business model differs from a subscription-based business model. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us, publish inaccurate research about our business, or fail to publish reports on us regularly, demand for our common stock could decrease, which might cause our stock price to decline and could decrease the trading volume of our common stock.

***We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future and, as a result, the ability of the holders of our common stock to achieve a return on their investment will depend on appreciation in the price of our common stock.***

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock, and we do not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors. Accordingly, holders of our common stock may need to rely on sales of our common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investment.

***We incur significant costs operating as a public company, and our management is required to devote substantial time to compliance with our public company responsibilities and corporate governance practices.***

As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange, and other applicable securities rules and regulations. Our management and other personnel devote a substantial amount of time to compliance with these requirements. Moreover, these rules and regulations have increased our legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time-consuming and costly. In addition, changing laws, regulations, and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure are creating uncertainty for public companies. These laws, regulations, and standards are subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We intend to continue to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations, and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management's time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If, notwithstanding our efforts, we fail to comply with evolving laws, regulations, and standards, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us, and our business may be harmed. Failure to comply with these rules might also make it more difficult for us to obtain certain types of insurance, including director and officer liability insurance, and we might be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. We cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we will incur as a public company or the specific timing of such costs.

***As a result of being a public company, we are obligated to develop and maintain proper and effective internal control over financial reporting, and any failure to maintain the adequacy of these internal controls may adversely affect investor confidence in our company and, as a result, the value of our common stock.***

We are required, pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (Section 404), to furnish a report by management on, among other things, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of each fiscal year. This assessment includes disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by our management in our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, our independent registered public accounting firm is required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our compliance with Section 404 requires that we incur substantial expenses and expend significant management efforts. We have established an internal audit group, and as we continue to grow, we expect to hire additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge and update the system and process documentation necessary to perform the evaluation needed to comply with Section 404.

During the evaluation and testing process of our internal controls, if we identify one or more material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we will be unable to certify that our internal control over financial reporting is effective. We cannot assure you that there will not be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting in the future. Any failure to maintain internal control over financial reporting could severely inhibit our ability to accurately report our financial condition or results of operations. If we are unable to conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm determines we have a material weakness or significant deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting, we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, the market price of our common stock could decline, and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities. Failure to remedy any material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, or to implement or maintain other effective control systems required of public companies, could also restrict our future access to the capital markets.

***Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents, the Indentures, and under Delaware law could make an acquisition of our company more difficult, limit attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management, and limit the market price of our common stock.***

Provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control or changes in our management. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws include provisions that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• authorize our board of directors to issue, without further action by the stockholders, shares of undesignated preferred stock with terms, rights, and preferences determined by our board of directors that may be senior to our common stock;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• require that any action to be taken by our stockholders be effected at a duly called annual or special meeting and not by written consent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• specify that special meetings of our stockholders can be called only by our board of directors, the chairperson of our board of directors, or our Chief Executive Officer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder proposals to be brought before an annual or special meeting, including proposed nominations of persons for election to our board of directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• establish that our board of directors is divided into three classes, with each class serving three-year staggered terms;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• prohibit cumulative voting in the election of directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide that our directors may only be removed for cause;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide that vacancies on our board of directors may be filled only by a majority of directors then in office, even though less than a quorum; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• require the approval of our board of directors or the holders of at least 66 2/3% of our outstanding shares of voting stock to amend our bylaws and certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation.

------

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

These provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management by making it more difficult for stockholders to replace members of our board of directors, which is responsible for appointing the members of our management. In addition, because we are incorporated in Delaware, we are governed by the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which generally, subject to certain exceptions, prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any of a broad range of business combinations with any "interested" stockholder for a period of three years following the date on which the stockholder became an "interested" stockholder. Any of the foregoing provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock, and they could deter potential acquirers of our company, thereby reducing the likelihood that holders of our common stock would receive a premium for their shares of our common stock in an acquisition.

In addition, certain provisions in the Indentures may make it more difficult or expensive for a third party to acquire us. For example, the Indentures will require us, except as described therein, to repurchase the Notes of the relevant series for cash upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the Indentures) and, in certain circumstances, to increase the relevant conversion rate for a holder that converts its Notes of the relevant series in connection with a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the Indentures). A takeover of us may trigger the requirement that we repurchase the relevant series of Notes and/or increase the relevant conversion rate, which could make it more costly for a potential acquirer to engage in such takeover. Such additional costs may have the effect of delaying or preventing a takeover of us that would otherwise be beneficial to investors.

***Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and, to the extent enforceable, the federal district courts of the United States of America as the exclusive forums for certain disputes between us and our stockholders, which will restrict our stockholders' ability to choose the judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or employees.***

Furthermore, Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all such Securities Act actions. Accordingly, both state and federal courts have jurisdiction to entertain such claims. To prevent having to litigate claims in multiple jurisdictions and the threat of inconsistent or contrary rulings by different courts, among other considerations, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act. While the Delaware courts have determined that such choice of forum provisions are facially valid, a stockholder may nevertheless seek to bring a claim in a venue other than those designated in the exclusive forum provisions. In such instance, we would expect to vigorously assert the validity and enforceability of the exclusive forum provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. This may require significant additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, and there can be no assurance that the provisions will be enforced by a court in those other jurisdictions. In addition, investors cannot waive compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

These choice of forum provisions may limit a stockholder's ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or other employees. If a court were to find either exclusive-forum provision in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving the dispute in other jurisdictions, which could seriously harm our business.

**ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY**

**Risk Management and Strategy**

We have implemented and maintain a cybersecurity program designed to identify, assess, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats to (i) our information systems and data, which include critical computer networks, third-party hosted services, communications systems, hardware and software, and (ii) critical data, including our intellectual property, confidential information that is proprietary, strategic or competitive in nature, and our customers', vendors', and partners' data. Our cybersecurity program includes an information security policy, access management policies, supply chain policies (which include open-source security review procedures), and security incident response processes, in addition to the secure design and vendor management programs described below. For a description of the risks from cybersecurity threats that may materially affect us, see the risk factor titled "*We, our customers, or third-party service providers have in the past and may in the future experience an actual or perceived security breach, unauthorized access to data, or unintended operation of our products. If any such event occurs, our products may be perceived as not being secure, our reputation may be harmed, demand for our products may be reduced, and we may incur significant liabilities.*" in the section titled "Risk Factors" included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our information systems generally fall into two categories: our platform and our corporate systems. Each category has dedicated teams and processes in place to address cybersecurity risk, and both our product security team and our enterprise security team report into our Chief Security and Trust Officer as a single, integrated security organization within Snowflake. Our product security team works alongside our product and engineering teams to address how security is designed into our platform. Our enterprise security team, led by our Chief Information Security Officer, is responsible for the secure design of our corporate systems. In addition, our Chief Information Security Officer manages a global security team that performs certain cybersecurity functions for both our platform and corporate systems, including certification management, incident response, threat detection, analytics, and offensive security (such as simulations and penetration tests).

We actively monitor our threat environment for cybersecurity threats using various methods, including automated detection tools, scans of the threat environment, investigations of potential threats we discover or that are reported to us, and reports and services that identify threats. We monitor our information systems for vulnerabilities using internal and third-party penetration testing, intelligence feeds, and vulnerability databases. We also have a bug bounty program.

Our security teams work with management to prioritize our risk management processes and mitigate cybersecurity threats, including those that may materially impact our business. Our assessment and management of material risks from cybersecurity threats is a key risk area within our enterprise risk management program. Our Chief Security and Trust Officer, Chief Information Security Officer, and SVP, Engineering and Support are responsible for management of cybersecurity risk under our enterprise risk management program, and senior management and the audit committee of our board of directors receive reports on key risks and the effectiveness of our management of such enterprise risks. In addition, key cybersecurity risks are assessed as part of our internal audit program. We have completed various security audits and certifications, including SOC 2 Type II, SOC 1 Type II, PCI-DSS, HITRUST, FedRAMP High, and ISO/IEC 27001. We also employ a shared responsibility cybersecurity model where our customers are responsible for using and configuring our platform in a manner that meets applicable cybersecurity standards and requirements. As part of this shared responsibility cybersecurity model, customers have sole responsibility for creating and securing the access credentials in their possession for our platform.

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

Our platform and corporate systems involve the use of third-party technology or service providers, or vendors, such as hosting platforms, open-source software, and application providers. We also use vendors to assist us from time to time to identify, assess, and manage material risks from cybersecurity threats to our platform and corporate systems, including consulting firms, external legal counsel, incident response vendors, penetration test providers, auditors, monitoring technology, and cybersecurity data providers. We have a vendor management program under which our enterprise security, product security, and legal teams evaluate cybersecurity risks presented by our use of vendors. Depending on the nature of the technology or services provided, the sensitivity of the information systems and data at issue, and the identity of the vendor, our vendor management process may involve different levels of assessment designed to help identify cybersecurity risks. For vendors that may pose higher risks, this process includes a vendor security questionnaire, an evaluation of the vendor's security program and security documentation, and the imposition of contractual obligations related to cybersecurity on the vendor. All vendors are required to undergo this process, which is in addition to the applicable security reviews that may be conducted by our product security and enterprise security teams described above.

**Governance**

Our board of directors has formed a cybersecurity committee to assist it in fulfilling its oversight responsibility with respect to the management of cybersecurity risks related to our products and services as well as our information technology and network systems. The responsibilities of the cybersecurity committee include overseeing our implementation and maintenance of cybersecurity measures, data governance, compliance with applicable information security laws, and overseeing disclosure controls relating to cybersecurity. The cybersecurity committee receives reports from management concerning our significant cybersecurity threats and risk and the processes we have implemented to address them and has access to various reports, summaries or presentations related to cybersecurity threats, risk, and mitigation. In addition, the audit committee of our board of directors has oversight responsibility over our internal financial controls and our enterprise risk management program. Finally, management periodically provides cybersecurity briefings to the entire board of directors.

The members of management who are primarily responsible for assessing and managing our material risks from cybersecurity threats are our Chief Security and Trust Officer, Chief Information Security Officer, and our SVP, Engineering and Support. Our Chief Information Security Officer joined Snowflake in 2023 and previously served in various cybersecurity roles for over 12 years across multiple technology sectors, including manufacturing, software, and services. Our Chief Information Security Officer reports to our Chief Security and Trust Officer, who joined Snowflake in 2026 from Google, where he spent 21 years and most recently served as VP of Engineering responsible for security across its cloud infrastructure and platform. Our Chief Security and Trust Officer reports to our SVP, Engineering and Support, with a secondary reporting relationship to our Chief Information Officer. Our SVP, Engineering and Support joined Snowflake as VP of AI Engineering in 2023 in connection with our acquisition of Neeva, where he served as the head of engineering and, prior to that, served in various roles at Google for over a decade, including as VP of Engineering in various technical leadership roles. Our Chief Information Officer joined Snowflake in 2025 from J.P. Morgan, where he served as Chief Information Officer of Payments, and has over 35 years of experience managing information systems in the technology industry. Each of our Chief Security and Trust Officer, Chief Information Security Officer, and SVP, Engineering and Support is responsible for hiring appropriate personnel, integrating cybersecurity risk considerations into our overall risk management strategy, communicating key priorities to relevant personnel, approving budgets, helping prepare for cybersecurity incidents, approving cybersecurity processes, and reviewing security assessments and other security-related reports.

Our cybersecurity incident response processes are designed to escalate certain cybersecurity incidents to management depending on the circumstances, including the individuals named above, who work with our incident response team to help us mitigate and remediate cybersecurity incidents of which they are notified. In addition, our security incident response plan provides for reporting certain cybersecurity incidents to the cybersecurity committee of the board.

**ITEM 2. PROPERTIES**

We are a Delaware corporation with a globally distributed workforce. We recruit and hire employees in jurisdictions around the world based on a range of factors, including the available talent pool, the type of work being performed, the relative cost of labor, regulatory requirements and costs, and other considerations. The majority of our employees work from physical offices. We currently lease offices in the United States, including in Atlanta, Georgia; Bellevue, Washington; Boston, Massachusetts; Bozeman, Montana; Denver, Colorado; Dublin, California; Menlo Park, California; New York, New York; and Washington, D.C. The offices located in Menlo Park, California are currently our largest lease, where we occupy facilities totaling approximately 562,685 square feet. We also have offices in multiple locations in Canada, Europe, and the APJ and EMEA regions. All of our offices are leased, and we do not own any real property. While we believe that our current facilities are adequate to meet our foreseeable needs, we intend to expand our facilities in the future as we continue to add employees around the world. We believe that suitable additional or alternative space will be available to accommodate our future growth.

**ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS**

From time to time, we have been and will continue to be subject to legal proceedings and claims. We do not believe that we are presently a party to any legal proceedings that, if determined adversely to us, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

We have received, and may in the future continue to receive, claims from third parties asserting, among other things, infringement of their intellectual property rights.

On February 29, 2024, a stockholder class action lawsuit was filed against us, our former Chief Executive Officer, and our former Chief Financial Officer in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging violations under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. On April 7, 2025, the lead plaintiff filed a second amended complaint seeking an unspecified amount of damages, attorneys' fees, expert fees, and other costs. On February 17, 2026, the Court granted our motion to dismiss the second amended complaint, but granted the lead plaintiff leave to file a third amended complaint. In addition, since the filing of the class action lawsuit, five additional complaints containing securities derivative claims have been filed in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware, United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and United States District Court for the Northern District of California, respectively, against us and certain of our directors and executive officers alleging similar violations. The derivative claims had been stayed pending resolution of the motion to dismiss the class action lawsuit and the parties have agreed to extend the stays through the resolution of the anticipated motion to dismiss the third amended complaint. We and the other defendants intend to vigorously defend against the claims in these actions.

On June 13, 2024, a class action was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Montana against us alleging that we failed to take reasonable measures to secure systems that contained consumer data, thereby allowing threat actors to access and exfiltrate personally identifiable information. In the months that followed, numerous additional class actions making the same or similar allegations were filed in the United States and Canada against us and/or our customers whose consumer or employee data was exfiltrated. Among other claims, the complaints assert common law claims for negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of implied contract, and unjust enrichment, as well as statutory claims, and seek an unspecified amount of damages, attorneys' fees and costs, as well as injunctive relief. On October 4, 2024, an order was issued by the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation combining the class actions filed in the United States into a multidistrict litigation in the District of Montana. On February 3, 2025, plaintiffs filed their representative complaint on behalf of the consumer plaintiffs. On February 14, 2025, the Court created a separate financial institution track to represent the interests of certain financial institutions (FI Plaintiffs) and an FI Plaintiff representative complaint was subsequently filed. On May 20, 2025, the plaintiffs filed an amended representative complaint on behalf of the consumer plaintiffs that asserted additional claims regarding the breach of a Snowflake customer account containing personally identifiable information from the Los Angeles Unified School District. On October 28 and 29, 2025, the Court denied our motions to dismiss the claims of the consumer plaintiffs and FI Plaintiffs. On December 19, 2025, we filed our answers to the complaints and the matter is currently in discovery. In addition to the multidistrict litigation, a class action is pending in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. We intend to vigorously defend against the claims in these actions.

On November 21, 2025, a class action lawsuit was filed against us in the United States District Court for the District of Montana alleging copyright infringement on behalf of a putative class of individuals and entities that own a United States copyright in any work that was allegedly copied, stored, or used without authorization to train our large language model. The complaint seeks an award of statutory and other damages, attorneys' fees, and all appropriate legal and equitable relief. On January 22, 2026, we filed our answer to the complaint and the matter is currently in discovery. We intend to vigorously defend against the claims in this action.

On February 24, 2026, a stockholder class action lawsuit was filed against us, our former Chief Executive Officer, and our former Chief Financial Officer in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging violations under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. The complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages, attorneys' fees, and other costs. We and the other defendants intend to vigorously defend against the claims in this action.

Future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves, our partners, and our customers by determining the scope, enforceability, and validity of third-party proprietary rights, or to establish our proprietary rights. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors. See Note 11, "Commitments and Contingencies," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details.

**Market Information**

Our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, is listed on the New York Stock Exchange, under the symbol "SNOW".

**Holders of Record**

As of March 6, 2026, there were 220 stockholders of record of our common stock. The actual number of holders of our common stock is greater than the number of record holders and includes stockholders who are beneficial owners, but whose shares are held in street name by brokers or other nominees. The number of holders of record presented here also does not include stockholders whose shares may be held in trust by other entities.

**Dividend Policy**

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain all available funds and future earnings, if any, to fund the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination regarding the declaration and payment of dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on then-existing conditions, including our financial condition, operating results, contractual restrictions, capital requirements, business prospects, and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant.

**Recent Sales of Unregistered Equity Securities**

On November 20, 2025, we issued approximately 0.1 million shares of our common stock (Equity Consideration) to certain securityholders of TensorStax, Inc. (TensorStax), pursuant to the terms of an agreement and plan of merger and reorganization, dated as of November 18, 2025, as partial consideration for our acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock and certain other securities of TensorStax. A portion of the Equity Consideration that was issued to continuing TensorStax employees is subject to forfeiture upon the occurrence of certain events.

We issued the shares in reliance on an exemption from registration provided for under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering. We relied on this exemption from registration based in part on the representations made by the applicable TensorStax securityholders.

**Overview**

We believe that a cloud computing platform that puts data and artificial intelligence (AI) at its core will offer great benefits to organizations by allowing them to realize the value of the data that powers their businesses. By offering rich primitives for data and applications, we believe that we can create a data connected world where organizations have seamless access to explore, share, and unlock the value of data. Our vision is a world where data and AI turn possibilities into reality. To realize this vision, we deliver the AI Data Cloud, a network where Snowflake customers, partners, developers, data providers, and data consumers can break down data silos and derive value from a growing number of data sets in secure, governed, and compliant ways.

Our platform is the innovative technology that powers the AI Data Cloud, enabling customers to consolidate data into a single source of truth to drive meaningful insights, apply AI to solve business problems, build data applications, and share data and data products. We provide our platform through a customer-centric, consumption-based business model.

Our cloud-native architecture includes three independently scalable but logically integrated layers across storage, compute, and cloud services. The storage layer ingests massive amounts and varieties of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data. The compute layer provides dedicated resources to enable users to simultaneously access common data sets for many use cases with minimal latency. Within the compute layer, users can clean and prepare their data, including any required metadata and business semantics, to create governed, unified data records that are AI ready and are written back to the storage layer. The cloud services layer enables users to securely use AI within applications, tools, and processes. This architecture is built on three major public clouds across 53 regional deployments around the world. These deployments are generally interconnected to deliver the AI Data Cloud, enabling a consistent, global user experience.

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

We generate the substantial majority of our revenue from fees charged to our customers based on the compute, storage, and data transfer resources consumed on our platform. Customers are allowed to select compute, storage, and data transfer resources separately, at their discretion. For compute resources, consumption is based on the type of compute resource used and the duration of use or, for some features, the volume of data processed. For storage resources, consumption for a given customer is based on the average terabytes per month of all of such customer's data stored in our platform. For data transfer resources, consumption is based on terabytes of data transferred, the public cloud provider used, and the region to and from which the transfer is executed.

Our customers typically enter into capacity arrangements with a term of one to four years, or consume our platform under on-demand arrangements in which we charge for use of our platform monthly in arrears. Consumption for most customers accelerates from the beginning of their usage to the end of their contract terms and often exceeds their initial capacity commitment amounts. When this occurs, our customers have the option to amend their existing agreement with us to purchase additional capacity or request early renewals. When a customer's consumption during the contract term does not exceed its capacity commitment amount, it may have the option to roll over any unused capacity to future periods, generally upon the purchase of additional capacity. For these reasons, we believe our deferred revenue is not a meaningful indicator of future revenue that will be recognized in any given time period.

Our go-to-market strategy is focused on acquiring new customers and driving increased use of our platform for existing customers. We primarily focus our selling efforts on large organizations and primarily sell our platform through a direct sales force, which targets technical and business leaders who are adopting a cloud strategy and leveraging data to improve their business performance. In addition to direct sales, we also sell our platform through resellers and distributors. Our sales force is comprised of inside and field sales, solution engineering, sales development, partner sales, and specialist sales personnel and is segmented by the industry, size, and region of prospective customers. Once our platform has been adopted, we focus on increasing the migration of additional customer workloads to our platform to drive increased consumption, as evidenced by our net revenue retention rate of 125% and 126% as of January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. See the section titled "Key Business Metrics" for a definition of net revenue retention rate.

Our platform is used globally by organizations of all sizes across a broad range of industries. As of January 31, 2026, we had 13,328 total customers, increasing from 10,996 customers as of January 31, 2025. Our customer count is subject to adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity, and we present our total customer count for historical periods reflecting these adjustments. Our platform has been adopted by many of the world's largest organizations that view Snowflake as a key strategic partner in their cloud and data transformation initiatives. As of January 31, 2026, our customers included 790 of the Forbes Global 2000, based on the 2025 Forbes Global 2000 list, and those customers contributed approximately 43% of our revenue for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026. Our Forbes Global 2000 customer count is subject to adjustments for annual updates to the Global 2000 list by Forbes, as well as acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity with respect to such customers, and we present our Forbes Global 2000 customer count for historical periods reflecting these adjustments. See the section titled "Key Business Metrics" for how we determine our customer count.

***Fiscal Year***

Our fiscal year ends on January 31. For example, references to fiscal 2026 refer to the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.

***Impact of Macroeconomic Conditions***

Our business and financial condition have been, and may continue to be, impacted by adverse macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, high interest rates, fluctuations or volatility in capital markets or foreign currency exchange rates, tariffs and trade wars, and geopolitical and military conflicts. These conditions have caused, and may continue to cause, customers to rationalize budgets, prioritize cash flow management, including through shortened contract duration, and optimize consumption, including by reducing storage through shorter data retention policies. We are continuing to monitor the actual and potential effects of general macroeconomic conditions across our business. For additional details, see the section titled "Risk Factors."

***Common Stock***

On July 3, 2025, we filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware effecting (i) the elimination of our Class B common stock, and (ii) the renaming of our Class A common stock to "common stock". This amendment had no impact on our issued and outstanding shares, additional paid-in capital, or accumulated deficit.

***Business Combinations***

On June 6, 2025, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Crunchy Data Solutions, Inc. (Crunchy Data), a privately-held company that provided PostgreSQL technology, for $164.5 million in cash. The results of operations of this business combination have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

On February 2, 2026, we acquired all the outstanding capital stock of Observe, Inc. (Observe), a privately-held company that built an AI-powered observability platform. The preliminary purchase consideration was approximately $596.2 million, which was comprised primarily of $286.2 million in cash and approximately 1.5 million shares of our common stock valued at $285.3 million as of the acquisition date.

See Note 7, "Business Combinations," and Note 16, "Subsequent Events," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for details regarding these business combinations.

**Key Factors Affecting Our Performance**

***Adoption of our Platform and Expansion of the AI Data Cloud***

Our future success depends in large part on the market adoption of our platform, including new product functionality, such as Snowpark and our AI and machine learning technology (collectively, AI Technology). While we see growing demand for our platform, particularly from large enterprises, many of these organizations have invested substantial technical, financial, and personnel resources in their existing database products or big data offerings. In addition, customers' use of our AI Technology is often dependent on their ability to meet evolving regulatory standards, successfully complete internal compliance reviews, and enter into mutually acceptable contractual terms. While this makes it difficult to predict customer adoption rates and future demand, we believe that the benefits of our platform put us in a strong position to capture the significant market opportunity ahead.

Our platform powers the AI Data Cloud, a network of data providers, data consumers, and data application developers that enables our customers to securely share, monetize, and acquire live data sets and data products. The AI Data Cloud includes access to the Snowflake Marketplace, through which customers can access or acquire third-party data sets, data applications, and other data products. Our future growth is increasingly dependent on our ability to increase consumption of our platform by building and expanding the AI Data Cloud.

***Expanding Within our Existing Customer Base***

Our large base of customers represents a significant opportunity for further consumption of our platform. While we have seen an increase in the number of customers that have contributed more than $1 million in product revenue in the trailing 12 months, we believe that there is a substantial opportunity to continue growing these customers further, as well as continuing to expand the usage of our platform within our other existing customers. We plan to continue investing to encourage increased consumption and adoption of new use cases among our existing customers, particularly large enterprises.

Once deployed, our customers often expand their use of our platform more broadly within the enterprise and across their ecosystem of customers and partners as they migrate more data to the public cloud, identify new use cases, and realize the benefits of our platform and the AI Data Cloud. However, because we generally recognize product revenue on consumption and not ratably over the term of the contract, we do not have visibility into the timing of revenue recognition from any particular customer. In addition, many customers are attempting to rationalize budgets, prioritize cash flow management, and optimize consumption amidst macroeconomic uncertainty. In any given period, there is a risk that customer consumption of our platform will be slower than we expect, which may cause fluctuations in our revenue and results of operations.

New software releases or hardware improvements, like better storage compression, cloud infrastructure processor improvements, and compute optimization, may make our platform more efficient, enabling customers to consume fewer compute, storage, and data transfer resources to accomplish the same workloads. In addition, open data formats allow customers to use our platform for compute services without requiring storage. To the extent these improvements do not result in an offsetting increase in new workloads, we may experience lower revenue. Our ability to increase usage of our platform by, and sell additional contracted capacity to, existing customers, and, in particular, large enterprise customers, will depend on a number of factors, including our customers' satisfaction with our platform, our customers' adoption and use of new product features, competition, pricing, macroeconomic conditions, overall changes in our customers' spending levels, customers' attempts to optimize their consumption, our customers' confidence in the security of our platform, our ability to maintain our reputation as a trustworthy vendor, the effectiveness of our and our partners' efforts to help our customers realize the benefits of our platform, and the extent to which customers migrate new workloads to our platform over time, including data science, AI, and machine learning workloads.

***Acquiring New Customers***

Our future success also depends on our ability to acquire new customers. We believe there is a substantial opportunity to further grow our customer base by continuing to make significant investments in sales and marketing and brand awareness. Our ability to attract new customers will depend on a number of factors, including the productivity of our sales organization, competitive dynamics in our target markets, changes in our customers' spending and platform consumption in response to market uncertainty, our ability to promote, maintain, and enhance our brand and reputation, our ability to mitigate reputational damage following cybersecurity threat activity directed at our customers, our ability to build and maintain partner relationships, including with global system integrators, resellers, technology partners, and third-party providers of native applications on the Snowflake Marketplace, and our ability to meet the heightened needs of customers in regulated markets, such as the public sector, financial services, and countries with data localization requirements. While our platform is built for organizations of all sizes, we focus our selling efforts on large enterprise customers, customers with vast amounts of data, and customers requiring industry-specific solutions. We may not achieve anticipated revenue growth if we are unable to attract, hire, develop, integrate, and retain talented and effective sales personnel; if our sales personnel are unable to achieve desired productivity levels in a reasonable period of time and maintain productivity; or if our sales and marketing programs are not effective.

***Investing in Growth and Scaling our Business***

We are focused on our long-term revenue potential, and believe our market opportunity is large. We will continue to invest significantly in research and development to improve our platform, including in the areas of data science and AI Technology. In addition, we are focused on expanding our business both domestically and internationally. As part of these efforts, we are investing in meeting the needs of organizations in geographies and government and regulated industries that have heightened requirements, including with respect to data localization, privacy, and security. We intend to continue to invest heavily to grow our business to take advantage of our expansive market opportunity, while also focusing on cash flow and long-term profitability.

________________

<sup>(1)</sup> Net cash provided by operating activities is not a key business metric but is included in this table as the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to free cash flow.

<sup>(2)</sup> Free cash flow for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024 included the effect of $72.4 million, $57.5 million, and $31.3 million, respectively, in the net cash paid on payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions. See the section titled "Free Cash Flow" for a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, to free cash flow.

<sup>(3)</sup> Cash outflows for employee payroll tax items related to the net share settlement of equity awards, which were $672.9 million, $489.1 million, and $380.8 million for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively, are included in cash flow for financing activities and, as a result, do not have an effect on the calculation of free cash flow.

<sup>(4)</sup> Historical numbers for (i) net revenue retention rate, (ii) customers with trailing 12-month product revenue greater than $1 million, and (iii) Forbes Global 2000 customers reflect any adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity. In addition, our Forbes Global 2000 customer count reflects adjustments for annual updates to the Forbes Global 2000 list by Forbes.

<sup>(5)</sup> As of January 31, 2026, our remaining performance obligations were approximately $9.8 billion, of which we expect approximately 46% to be recognized as revenue in the 12 months ending January 31, 2027 based on historical customer consumption patterns. The weighted-average remaining life of our capacity contracts was 2.7 years as of January 31, 2026. However, the amount and timing of revenue recognition are generally dependent upon customers' future consumption, which is inherently variable at our customers' discretion and can extend beyond the original contract term in cases where customers are permitted to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally upon the purchase of additional capacity at renewal. In addition, our historical customer consumption patterns are not necessarily indicative of future results.

***Product Revenue***

Product revenue is a key metric for us because we recognize revenue based on platform consumption, which is inherently variable at our customers' discretion, and not based on the amount and duration of contract terms. Product revenue is primarily derived from the consumption of compute, storage, and data transfer resources by customers on our platform. Customers have the flexibility to consume more than their contracted capacity during the contract term and may have the ability to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally upon the purchase of additional capacity at renewal. Our consumption-based business model distinguishes us from subscription-based software companies that generally recognize revenue ratably over the contract term and may not permit rollover. Because customers have flexibility in the timing of their consumption, which can exceed their contracted capacity or extend beyond the original contract term in many cases, the amount of product revenue recognized in a given period is an important indicator of customer satisfaction and the value derived from our platform. While customer use of our platform in any period is not necessarily indicative of future use, we estimate future revenue using predictive models based on customers' historical usage to plan and determine financial forecasts. Product revenue excludes our professional services and other revenue, which has been less than 10% of revenue for each of the periods presented.

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

***Net Revenue Retention Rate***

We believe the growth in use of our platform by our existing customers is an important measure of the health of our business and our future growth prospects. We monitor our dollar-based net revenue retention rate to measure this growth. To calculate this metric, we first specify a measurement period consisting of the trailing two years from our current period end. Next, we define as our measurement cohort the population of customers under capacity contracts that used our platform at any point in the first month of the first year of the measurement period. The cohorts used to calculate net revenue retention rate include end-customers under a reseller arrangement. We then calculate our net revenue retention rate as the quotient obtained by dividing our product revenue from this cohort in the second year of the measurement period by our product revenue from this cohort in the first year of the measurement period. Any customer in the cohort that did not use our platform in the second year remains in the calculation and contributes zero product revenue in the second year. Our net revenue retention rate is subject to adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity, and we present our net revenue retention rate for historical periods reflecting these adjustments. Since we will continue to attribute the historical product revenue to the consolidated contract, consolidation of capacity contracts within a customer's organization typically will not impact our net revenue retention rate unless one of those customers was not a customer at any point in the first month of the first year of the measurement period. We expect our net revenue retention rate to decrease over the long-term as customers that have consumed our platform for an extended period of time become a larger portion of both our overall customer base and our product revenue that we use to calculate net revenue retention rate, and as their consumption growth primarily relates to existing use cases rather than new use cases. In addition, we have seen, and may continue to see, impacts on customer consumption patterns due to holidays and certain of our customers increasing their consumption of our platform at a slower pace than expected, which may negatively impact our net revenue retention rate in future periods.

***Customers with Trailing 12-Month Product Revenue Greater than $1 Million***

Large customer relationships lead to scale and operating leverage in our business model. Compared with smaller customers, large customers present a greater opportunity for us to sell additional capacity because they have larger budgets, a wider range of potential use cases, and greater potential for migrating new workloads to our platform over time. As a measure of our ability to scale with our customers and attract large enterprises to our platform, we count the number of customers under capacity arrangements that contributed more than $1 million in product revenue in the trailing 12 months. For purposes of determining our customer count, we treat each customer account, including accounts for end-customers under a reseller arrangement, that has at least one corresponding capacity contract as a unique customer, and a single organization with multiple divisions, segments, or subsidiaries may be counted as multiple customers. We do not include customers that consume our platform only under on-demand arrangements for purposes of determining our customer count. Our customer count is subject to adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity, and we present our customer count for historical periods reflecting these adjustments.

***Forbes Global 2000 Customers***

We believe that the number of Forbes Global 2000 customers is an important indicator of the growth of our business and future revenue trends as we focus our selling efforts on large enterprise customers and customers with vast amounts of data. Our Forbes Global 2000 customer count is a subset of our customer count based on the 2025 Forbes Global 2000 list. Our Forbes Global 2000 customer count is subject to adjustments for annual updates to the list by Forbes, as well as acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity with respect to such customers, and we present our Forbes Global 2000 customer count for historical periods reflecting these adjustments.

***Free Cash Flow***

We define free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, as GAAP net cash provided by operating activities reduced by purchases of property and equipment and capitalized software development costs. Cash outflows for employee payroll tax items related to the net share settlement of equity awards are included in cash flow for financing activities and, as a result, do not have an effect on the calculation of free cash flow. We believe information regarding free cash flow provides useful supplemental information to investors because it is an indicator of the strength and performance of our core business operations.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, to free cash flow for the periods presented (in millions):

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Fiscal Year Ended January 31,** | **Fiscal Year Ended January 31,** | **Fiscal Year Ended January 31,** |
| | **2026** | **2025** | **2024** |
| Net cash provided by operating activities | $1221.9 | $959.8 | $848.1 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: purchases of property and equipment | (101.6) | (46.3) | (35.1) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Less: capitalized software development costs |  | (29.4) | (34.1) |
| Free cash flow (non-GAAP)<sup>(1)(2)</sup> | $1120.3 | $884.1 | $778.9 |
| Net cash provided by investing activities | $312.2 | $190.6 | $832.3 |
| Net cash used in financing activities | $(1385.4) | $(226.5) | $(854.1) |

---

________________

<sup>(1)</sup> Free cash flow for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024 included the effect of $72.4 million, $57.5 million, and $31.3 million, respectively, in the net cash paid on payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions.

<sup>(2)</sup> Cash outflows for employee payroll tax items related to the net share settlement of equity awards, which were $672.9 million, $489.1 million, and $380.8 million for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively, are included in cash flow for financing activities and, as a result, do not have an effect on the calculation of free cash flow.

Historically, we have received a higher volume of orders from new and existing customers in the fourth fiscal quarter of each year. As a result, we have historically seen higher free cash flow in the first and fourth fiscal quarters of each year.

***Remaining Performance Obligations***

Remaining performance obligations (RPO) represent the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including (i) deferred revenue and (ii) non-cancelable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. RPO excludes performance obligations from on-demand arrangements and certain time and materials contracts that are billed in arrears. Portions of RPO that are not yet invoiced and are denominated in foreign currencies are revalued into U.S. dollars each period based on the applicable period-end exchange rates. RPO is not necessarily indicative of future product revenue growth because it does not account for the timing of customers' consumption or their consumption of more than their contracted capacity. Moreover, RPO is influenced by a number of factors, including the timing and size of renewals, the timing and size of purchases of additional capacity, average contract terms, seasonality, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and the extent to which customers are permitted to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally upon the purchase of additional capacity at renewal. Due to these factors, it is important to review RPO in conjunction with product revenue and other financial metrics disclosed elsewhere herein.

**Components of Results of Operations**

***Revenue***

We deliver our platform over the internet as a service. Customers choose to consume our platform under either capacity arrangements, in which they commit to a certain amount of consumption at specified prices, or under on-demand arrangements, in which we charge for use of our platform monthly in arrears. Under capacity arrangements, from which a majority of our revenue is derived, we typically bill our customers annually in advance of their consumption. However, in future periods, we expect to see an increase in capacity contracts providing for quarterly upfront billings and monthly in arrears billings as our customers increasingly want to align consumption and timing of payments. Revenue from on-demand arrangements typically relates to customers with lower usage levels or overage consumption beyond a customer's contracted usage amount under a capacity contract or following the expiration of a customer's capacity contract. We recognize revenue as customers consume compute, storage, and data transfer resources under either of these arrangements. Revenue from on-demand arrangements represented approximately 1%, 2%, and 3% of our revenue for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

Our customer contracts for capacity typically have a term of one to four years. The weighted-average term of capacity contracts entered into during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 is approximately 3.1 years. To the extent our customers enter into such contracts and either consume our platform in excess of their capacity commitments or continue to use our platform after expiration of the contract term, they are charged for their incremental consumption. In many cases, our customer contracts permit customers to roll over any unused capacity to a subsequent order, generally upon the purchase of additional capacity. For those customers who do not have a capacity arrangement, our on-demand arrangements generally have a monthly stated contract term and can be terminated at any time by either the customer or us.

We generate the substantial majority of our revenue from fees charged to our customers based on the compute, storage, and data transfer resources consumed on our platform. Customers are allowed to select compute, storage, and data transfer resources separately, at their discretion. For compute resources, consumption is based on the type of compute resource used and the duration of use or, for some features, the volume of data processed. For storage resources, consumption for a given customer is based on the average terabytes per month of all of such customer's data stored in our platform. For data transfer resources, consumption is based on terabytes of data transferred, the public cloud provider used, and the region to and from which the transfer is executed.

Because customers have flexibility in their consumption, and we generally recognize revenue on consumption and not ratably over the term of the contract, we do not have the visibility into the timing of revenue recognition from any particular customer contract that typical subscription-based software companies may have. As our customer base grows, we expect our ability to forecast customer consumption in the aggregate to improve. However, in any given period, there is a risk that customers will consume our platform more slowly than we expect, including in response to adverse macroeconomic conditions, which may cause fluctuations in our revenue and results of operations.

Our revenue also includes professional services and other revenue, which consists primarily of consulting, technical solution services, and training related to our platform. Our professional services revenue is recognized over time based on input measures, including time and materials costs incurred relative to total costs, with consideration given to output measures, such as contract deliverables, when applicable. Other revenue consists primarily of fees from customer training delivered on-site or through publicly available classes.

***Allocation of Overhead Costs***

Overhead costs that are not substantially dedicated for use by a specific functional group are allocated based on headcount. Such costs include costs associated with office facilities, depreciation of property and equipment, information technology (IT) and general recruiting related expenses and other expenses, such as software and subscription services.

------

<u>[Table](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

***Cost of Revenue***

Cost of revenue consists of cost of product revenue and cost of professional services and other revenue. Cost of revenue also includes allocated overhead costs.

*Cost of product revenue.* Cost of product revenue consists primarily of (i) third-party cloud infrastructure expenses, including those related to graphics processing units (GPUs) and AI inference, incurred in connection with our customers' use of our platform and the deployment and maintenance of our platform on public clouds, including different regional deployments, and (ii) personnel-related costs associated with customer support and maintaining service availability and security of our platform, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, and stock-based compensation. Cost of product revenue also includes amortization of capitalized software development costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and expenses associated with software and subscription services dedicated for use by our customer support team and our engineering team responsible for maintaining our platform.

*Cost of professional services and other revenue.* Cost of professional services and other revenue consists primarily of personnel-related costs associated with our professional services and training departments, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, and stock-based compensation, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and costs of contracted third-party partners and software tools.

We intend to continue to invest additional resources in our platform infrastructure and our customer support and professional services organizations to support the growth of our business. Some of these investments, including costs associated with GPUs and AI inference, certain support costs and costs of expanding our business internationally, are incurred in advance of generating revenue, and either the failure to generate anticipated revenue or fluctuations in the timing of revenue could affect our gross margin from period to period.

***Operating Expenses***

Our operating expenses consist of sales and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs are the most significant component of operating expenses and consist of salaries, benefits, bonuses, stock-based compensation, and sales commissions. Operating expenses also include allocated overhead costs.

*Sales and Marketing*

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses associated with our sales and marketing staff, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, and stock-based compensation. Sales and marketing expenses also include sales commissions and draws paid to our sales force and certain referral fees paid to third parties, including amortization of deferred commissions. A portion of the sales commissions paid to the sales force is earned based on the level of the customers' consumption of our platform, and a portion of the commissions paid to the sales force is earned upon the origination, expansion, or renewal of customer contracts. Sales commissions tied to customers' consumption are expensed in the same period as they are earned. Sales commissions and referral fees earned upon the origination or expansion of customer contracts that are not commensurate with those earned upon the renewal of contracts are capitalized and then amortized over a period of benefit that we determined to be five years. Sales commissions earned upon the renewal of customer contracts, as well as sales commissions earned upon the origination or expansion of customer contracts that are commensurate with those for renewal contracts, are capitalized and then amortized over the respective weighted-average contractual term of the related contracts. Sales and marketing expenses also include advertising costs and other expenses associated with our sales, marketing and business development programs, including our user conferences, offset by proceeds from such conferences and programs. In addition, sales and marketing expenses are comprised of travel-related expenses, software and subscription services dedicated for use by our sales and marketing organizations, amortization of acquired intangible assets, and outside services contracted for sales and marketing purposes. We expect that our sales and marketing expenses will increase in absolute dollars and continue to be our largest operating expense for the foreseeable future as we grow our business. However, we expect that our sales and marketing expenses will decrease as a percentage of our revenue over time due to improved spend efficiency, although the percentage may fluctuate from period to period depending on the timing and the extent of these expenses.

*Research and Development*

Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses associated with our research and development staff, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, and stock-based compensation. Research and development expenses also include contractor or professional services fees, third-party cloud infrastructure expenses incurred in developing our platform (including those related to GPUs to develop AI Technology), amortization of acquired intangible assets, and expenses associated with software and subscription services dedicated for use by our research and development organization. Prior to fiscal 2026, research and development expenses related to our cloud platform that qualified as internal-use software development costs were capitalized under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 350-40, Internal-use Software (ASC 350-40). During fiscal 2026, we began marketing the Snowflake platform to selected public sector customers who will have contractual rights to take possession of our software and who will contract with third parties to host our software. As a result, our ongoing and future software development costs related to the Snowflake platform must be accounted for under ASC 985-20, Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed (ASC 985-20). Costs that meet the criteria for capitalization under ASC 985-20 were not material for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026. Software development costs capitalized prior to fiscal 2026 in connection with the Snowflake platform will be amortized over their remaining useful life and recognized as cost of product revenue. See Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details. We expect that our research and development expenses will increase in absolute dollars due to business growth, continued investments in our platform, and a decrease in the amount of software development costs eligible for capitalization. However, we expect that our research and development expenses will decrease as a percentage of our revenue over time due to improved spend efficiency, although the percentage may fluctuate from period to period depending on the timing and the extent of these expenses.

*General and Administrative*

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses for our finance, legal, human resources, facilities, and administrative personnel, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, and stock-based compensation. General and administrative expenses also include external legal, accounting, and other professional services fees, software and subscription services dedicated for use by our general and administrative functions, insurance, unallocated lease costs associated with unused office facilities to accommodate planned headcount growth, and other corporate expenses. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in absolute dollars as our business grows but will decrease as a percentage of our revenue over time due to improved spend efficiency, although the percentage may fluctuate from period to period depending on the timing and the extent of these expenses. In addition, during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, we recognized asset impairment charges of $108.7 million as general and administrative expenses, primarily relating to the cease-use of our San Mateo office facility. See Note 11, "Commitments and Contingencies," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details.

***Interest Income***

Interest income consists primarily of interest income earned on our cash and cash equivalents and short-term and long-term investments, including amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts related to our available-for-sale marketable debt securities, net of associated fees.

***Interest Expense***

Interest expense consists of amortization of debt issuance costs incurred in connection with the issuance of our convertible senior notes.

***Other Income (Expense), Net***

Other income (expense), net consists primarily of (i) net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on our strategic investments in equity securities, and (ii) the effect of exchange rates on our foreign currency-denominated asset and liability balances.

***Provision for (Benefit from) Income Taxes***

Provision for (benefit from) income taxes consists primarily of income taxes in certain foreign and U.S. federal and state jurisdictions in which we conduct business. We maintain a full valuation allowance against our U.S. and U.K. deferred tax assets because we have concluded that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

***Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest***

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Snowflake Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiaries, and a majority-owned subsidiary in which we have a controlling financial interest. Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest represents the net income (loss) of our majority-owned subsidiary attributed to noncontrolling interest using the hypothetical liquidation at book value method. See Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details.

The overall increase in stock-based compensation for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, was primarily attributable to additional equity awards granted to existing and new employees, partially offset by the effects of equity awards that became fully vested or forfeited.

As of January 31, 2026, total compensation cost related to unvested awards not yet recognized was $3.1 billion, which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years. See Note 12, "Equity," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details.

Stock-based compensation is impacted by our future hiring and retention needs, which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. We expect that our stock-based compensation will increase in absolute dollars as we continue to issue equity awards to our new and existing employees, but will decrease as a percentage of our revenue in fiscal 2027 and continue to decrease over time as we grow.

Product revenue increased $1.0 billion for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increased consumption of our platform by existing customers, as evidenced by our net revenue retention rate of 125% as of January 31, 2026.

We had 733 customers with product revenue of greater than $1 million for the trailing 12 months ended January 31, 2026, an increase from 576 customers as of January 31, 2025. Such customers represented approximately 68% and 66% of our product revenue for the trailing 12 months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Within these customers, we had 135 and 56 customers with product revenue of greater than $5 million and $10 million, respectively, for the trailing 12 months ended January 31, 2026. The substantial majority of our revenue was derived from existing customers under capacity arrangements, which represented approximately 97% of our revenue for each of the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025. The remainder was derived from new customers under capacity arrangements and on-demand arrangements. The preceding historical metrics reflect any adjustments for acquisitions, consolidations, spin-offs, and other market activity. For purposes of determining revenue derived from (i) customers with trailing 12-month product revenue greater than $1 million, (ii) new customers, and (iii) existing customers, we treat each customer account, including accounts for end-customers under a reseller arrangement, that has at least one corresponding capacity contract as a unique customer, and a single organization with multiple divisions, segments, or subsidiaries may be counted as multiple customers.

Professional services and other revenue increased $47.7 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year, as our professional services organization continues to expand and evolve to help our customers further realize the benefits of our platform.

Cost of product revenue increased $268.3 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $248.1 million in third-party cloud infrastructure expenses (including those related to AI inference), mainly as a result of increased customer consumption of our platform. Amortization of capitalized software development costs and acquired developed technology intangible assets also increased $27.9 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year. The overall increase in cost of product revenue was partially offset by a decrease of $12.7 million in costs incurred by us in connection with a restructuring plan for a majority-owned subsidiary, net of associated income and recoveries.

Our product gross margin was 72% for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to 71% for the prior fiscal year. This slight improvement is primarily due to the decrease in personnel-related costs and the aforementioned restructuring costs as a percentage of product revenue, offset by costs attributable to newly launched product capabilities and features that have not yet reached economies of scale. We expect our product gross margin to fluctuate from period to period due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to: (i) fluctuations in the mix and timing of customers' consumption, which is inherently variable at our customers' discretion, (ii) our pricing model and discounting practices, (iii) the extent of our investments in new product capabilities, features, and operations, such as investments in AI Technology and performance improvements that may make our platform or the underlying cloud infrastructure more efficient, (iv) new product offerings that are margin compressive, and (v) stock-based compensation.

Cost of professional services and other revenue increased $54.9 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $44.2 million in personnel-related costs and allocated overhead costs, as a result of increased headcount and stock-based compensation. The remaining increase in cost of professional services and other revenue was primarily driven by increased costs of contracted third-party partners to support the growth in our business.

Professional services and other gross margin was (31%) and (36%) for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. We do not believe the year-over-year changes in professional services and other gross margins are meaningful given that our professional services and other revenue represents a small percentage of our revenue.

Sales and marketing expenses increased $390.0 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year, primarily due to an increase of $270.1 million in personnel-related costs (excluding commission expenses) and allocated overhead costs, as a result of increased headcount, stock-based compensation, and overall costs to support the growth in our business. The increase in personnel-related costs included a $47.1 million increase in stock-based compensation for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year, primarily related to additional equity awards granted to new and existing employees, partially offset by the effects of equity awards that became forfeited or fully vested.

In addition, expenses associated with sales commissions and draws paid to our sales force and certain referral fees paid to third parties, including amortization of deferred commissions, increased $47.9 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year, primarily due to increases in the annualized contract value of our customer contracts and customers' consumption of our platform. Advertising costs and other expenses associated with our sales, marketing and business development programs, as well as travel-related expenses, increased $42.2 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year.

Research and development expenses increased $186.1 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year, primarily due to an increase of $185.6 million in personnel-related costs and allocated overhead costs, as a result of increased headcount, stock-based compensation, and overall costs to support the growth in our business. The increase in personnel-related costs included a $83.4 million increase in stock-based compensation, primarily related to additional equity awards granted to new and existing employees, partially offset by the effects of equity awards that became forfeited or fully vested.

In addition, third-party cloud infrastructure expenses, incurred primarily in developing our platform, increased $18.1 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year. The overall increase in research and development expenses for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 was partially offset by a decrease of $17.0 million in costs incurred by us in connection with a restructuring plan for a majority-owned subsidiary, net of associated income and recoveries.

General and administrative expenses increased $137.4 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, we recognized asset impairment charges of $108.7 million, primarily relating to the cease-use of our San Mateo office facility. See Note 11, "Commitments and Contingencies," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details.

In addition, personnel-related costs (excluding stock-based compensation) and allocated overhead costs increased $19.3 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year, as a result of increased headcount and overall costs to support the growth in our business. The remaining increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily driven by unallocated lease costs associated with unused office facilities to accommodate planned headcount growth.

---

Our provision for income taxes increased $13.0 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the prior fiscal year, primarily due to higher tax provisions in foreign jurisdictions and an increase in our unrecognized tax benefits.

We maintain a full valuation allowance on our U.S. and U.K. deferred tax assets, and the significant components of our recorded tax expense are current cash taxes in various jurisdictions. The cash tax expenses are impacted by each jurisdiction's individual tax rates, laws on the timing of recognition of income and deductions, and availability of net operating losses and tax credits. Our effective tax rate might fluctuate significantly and could be adversely affected to the extent earnings are lower than forecasted in countries that have lower statutory rates and higher than forecasted in countries that have higher statutory rates.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

As of January 31, 2026, our principal sources of liquidity were cash, cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term investments totaling $4.8 billion. Our cash equivalents and investments primarily consist of money market funds, corporate notes and bonds, U.S. government and agency securities, time deposits, certificates of deposit, and commercial paper.

As of January 31, 2026, our RPO was $9.8 billion. Our RPO represents the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including (i) deferred revenue and (ii) non-cancelable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods, but that are not recorded on the balance sheet. Portions of RPO that are not yet invoiced and are denominated in foreign currencies are revalued into U.S. dollars each period based on the applicable period-end exchange rates.

Our primary sources of cash are payments received from our customers as well as net proceeds from the issuance of our convertible senior notes. Our primary uses of cash include personnel-related expenses, third-party cloud infrastructure expenses (including those related to GPUs and AI inference), sales and marketing expenses, overhead costs, acquisitions and strategic investments we may make from time to time, and repurchases of our common stock under our authorized stock repurchase program. As of January 31, 2026, our material cash requirements from known contractual obligations and commitments relate primarily to (i) third-party cloud infrastructure agreements, (ii) our convertible senior notes, (iii) operating leases for office facilities, and (iv) subscription arrangements used to facilitate our operations at the enterprise level. These agreements are enforceable and legally binding and specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum services to be used, fixed, minimum or variable price provisions, and the approximate timing of the actions under the contracts. For more information regarding our contractual obligations and commitments (excluding our convertible senior notes) as of January 31, 2026, see Note 11, "Commitments and Contingencies," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our long-term purchase commitments may be satisfied earlier than the payment periods presented as we continue to grow and scale our business.

On February 2, 2026, we acquired all the outstanding capital stock of Observe, Inc., a privately-held company that built an AI-powered observability platform. The preliminary purchase consideration was approximately $596.2 million, which was comprised primarily of $286.2 million in cash and approximately 1.5 million shares of our common stock valued at $285.3 million as of the acquisition date.

In February 2026, we entered into agreements for new office facilities located in the United States and Germany, with a total commitment of $85 million, net of tenant incentives expected to be received. These leases will commence on various dates starting in fiscal 2027 with lease terms ranging from 7.2 years to 12.3 years.

***Convertible Senior Notes***

In September 2024, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $2.3 billion of convertible senior notes in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers, comprising of (i) $1.15 billion aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2027 (2027 Notes) and (ii) $1.15 billion aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2029 (2029 Notes, and together with the 2027 Notes, the Notes). The Notes are general, senior unsecured obligations. The 2027 Notes will mature on October 1, 2027 and the 2029 Notes will mature on October 1, 2029, in each case unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased. Upon conversion of the Notes, we may satisfy our conversion obligation by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of both, at our election. The total proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were approximately $2.27 billion, net of $31.2 million of debt issuance costs. The outstanding principal of the 2027 Notes and the 2029 Notes was $1.15 billion each as of January 31, 2026 and January 31, 2025.

In connection with the Notes offering, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions relating to each series of Notes (Capped Calls) with certain of the initial purchasers or affiliates thereof and certain other financial institutions for a cost of $195.5 million. The Capped Calls are generally expected to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the relevant series of the Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes of such series, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap based on a cap price initially equal to $225.00 per share.

We used a portion of the net proceeds from the Notes offering to (i) pay the $195.5 million cost of the Capped Calls and (ii) repurchase $399.6 million of our common stock from purchasers of the Notes in the offering in privately negotiated transactions entered into in connection with the Notes offering at a purchase price of $112.50 per share. We expect to use the remainder of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include other repurchases of our common stock from time to time under our existing or any future stock repurchase program, as well as acquisitions or strategic investments in complementary businesses or technologies.

The Sale Price Trigger, as discussed in Note 10, "Convertible Senior Notes," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, was met during each of the three months ended July 31, 2025, October 31, 2025, and January 31, 2026, and as a result, holders may convert the Notes at any time during each of the three months ending October 31, 2025, January 31, 2026, and April 30, 2026. To the extent we receive notices of conversion, we may choose to pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. See Note 10, "Convertible Senior Notes," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional details.

***Stock Repurchase Program***

In February 2023, our board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $2.0 billion of our outstanding common stock. In August 2024, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of an additional $2.5 billion of our outstanding common stock and extended the expiration date of the stock repurchase program from March 2025 to March 2027. Repurchases may be effected, from time to time, either on the open market (including via pre-set trading plans), in privately negotiated transactions, or through other transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws. The timing and amount of any repurchases will be determined by management based on an evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at our discretion.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, we repurchased 4.9 million shares of our outstanding common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $873.5 million, excluding transaction costs associated with the repurchases, at a weighted-average price of $177.37 per share. All repurchases were made in open market transactions. As of January 31, 2026, approximately $1.1 billion remained available for future repurchases under the stock repurchase program (exclusive of transaction costs associated with repurchases). See Note 12, "Equity," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional details.

Subsequent to January 31, 2026, and through March 20, 2026, we repurchased 1.7 million shares of our outstanding common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $300.0 million, excluding transaction costs associated with the repurchases, at a weighted-average price of $178.95 per share. All repurchases were made in open market transactions.

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term investments, as well as cash flows expected to be generated by our operations, will be sufficient to support our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, convertible senior notes repayment requirements, acquisitions and strategic investments we may make from time to time, and repurchases of our common stock under our existing or any future stock repurchase program, for the next 12 months and beyond. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue growth rate, expenditures related to our headcount growth, the timing and the amount of cash received from customers, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the price at which we are able to purchase public cloud capacity, our existing commitments to our third-party cloud providers, expenses associated with our international expansion, the introduction of platform enhancements, the continuing market adoption of our platform, and the volume and timing of our stock repurchases. We may continue to enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, products, and technologies. We may, as a result of those arrangements or the general expansion of our business, be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. In the event that we require additional financing, we may not be able to raise such financing on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital or generate cash flows necessary to expand our operations and invest in continued innovation, we may not be able to compete successfully, which would harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

The following table shows a summary of our cash flows for the periods presented (in thousands):

---

| | **Fiscal Year Ended January 31,** | **Fiscal Year Ended January 31,** | **Fiscal Year Ended January 31,** |
| | **2026** | **2025** | **2024** |
| Net cash provided by operating activities | $1221942  | $959764  | $848122  |
| Net cash provided by investing activities | $312241  | $190646  | $832258  |
| Net cash used in financing activities | $(1385390) | $(226523) | $(854103) |

***Operating Activities***

Net cash provided by operating activities mainly consists of our net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, primarily consisting of (i) stock-based compensation, net of amounts capitalized, (ii) depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and amortization of acquired intangible assets, (iii) amortization of deferred commissions, (iv) asset impairment related to office facility exit, (v) amortization of operating lease right-of-use assets, (vi) net realized and unrealized gains and losses on strategic investments in equity securities, and (vii) net amortization (accretion) of premiums (discounts) on investments, and changes in operating assets and liabilities during each period.

For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, net cash provided by operating activities was $1.2 billion, consisting of our net loss of approximately $1.3 billion, adjusted for non-cash charges of approximately $2.2 billion, and net cash inflows of $383.8 million resulting from changes in our operating assets and liabilities, net of the effects of business combinations. The main drivers of the changes in operating assets and liabilities during fiscal 2026 were (i) a $755.2 million increase in deferred revenue due to invoicing for prepaid capacity agreements outpacing revenue recognition and (ii) a $393.3 million increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities primarily due to the timing of accruals and payments and growth in our business, partially offset by (a) a $380.0 million increase in accounts receivable primarily due to growth in our business, (b) a $305.1 million increase in deferred commissions earned primarily by our sales force upon the origination, expansion, or renewal of customer contracts, (c) a $44.5 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets primarily driven by prepayments related to our sales, marketing and business development programs, including our user conferences, and (d) a $26.9 million decrease in operating lease liabilities due to payments related to our operating lease obligations, net of tenant incentives received.

For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, net cash provided by operating activities was $959.8 million, consisting of our net loss of approximately $1.3 billion, adjusted for non-cash charges of approximately $1.8 billion, and net cash inflows of $443.6 million resulting from changes in our operating assets and liabilities, net of the effects of business combinations.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $262.2 million for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, compared to the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, primarily due to an increase in cash collected from customers resulting from increased sales, partially offset by increased expenditures due to an increase in headcount and growth in our business. We expect to continue to generate positive net cash flows from operating activities for fiscal 2027.

***Investing Activities***

Net cash provided by investing activities for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 was $312.2 million, primarily driven by proceeds of $595.8 million from net sales, maturities and redemptions of investments. The increase is partially offset by (i) an aggregate of $178.9 million in cash paid for Crunchy Data and other business combinations, net of cash acquired, and (ii) $101.6 million in purchases of property and equipment to support our office facilities.

Net cash provided by investing activities for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025 was $190.6 million, primarily driven by proceeds of $297.4 million from net sales, maturities and redemptions of investments. The increase is partially offset by (i) $46.3 million in purchases of property and equipment to support our office facilities, (ii) an aggregate of $30.3 million in cash paid for Datavolo and other business combinations, net of cash and cash equivalents acquired, and (iii) $29.4 million in capitalized software development costs.

***Financing Activities***

Net cash used in financing activities for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 was approximately $1.4 billion, primarily driven by (i) $873.5 million in repurchases of our common stock under our authorized stock repurchase program and (ii) $672.9 million in taxes paid related to net share settlement of equity awards, partially offset by proceeds of $172.3 million from the issuance of equity securities under our equity incentive plans.

Net cash used in financing activities for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025 was $226.5 million, primarily driven by (i) approximately $1.9 billion in repurchases of our common stock under our authorized stock repurchase program, (ii) $489.1 million in taxes paid related to net share settlement of equity awards, and (iii) $195.5 million in purchases of the Capped Calls, partially offset by (a) proceeds of approximately $2.27 billion from the issuance of the Notes, net of $31.2 million in cash paid for issuance costs, and (b) proceeds of $121.9 million from the issuance of equity securities under our equity incentive plans.

**Critical Accounting Estimates**

Our management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. By their nature, these estimates and assumptions are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty and actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by management. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows will be affected.

The significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are discussed in Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We believe that the accounting policy and estimate described below involves a substantial degree of judgment and complexity and therefore is the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations.

***Revenue Recognition***

Many of our contracts with customers include multiple performance obligations. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price (SSP) basis. We consider our evaluation of SSP to be a critical accounting estimate. An observable SSP is established based on the price at which a service is sold separately. If an SSP is not observable through past transactions, we estimate it by maximizing the use of observable inputs, including the overall pricing strategy, market data, internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations, and other observable inputs. As our business and offerings evolve over time, modifications to our pricing and discounting methodologies, changes in the scope and nature of our offerings, and/or changes in customer segmentation may result in a lack of consistency, making it difficult to establish and/or maintain SSP. Changes in SSP could result in different and unanticipated allocations of revenue in contracts with multiple performance obligations. These factors, among others, may adversely impact the amount of revenue and gross margin we report in a given period.

**Recent Accounting Pronouncements**

See Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.

**ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

***Interest Rate Risk***

As of January 31, 2026, we had approximately $4.8 billion of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term investments in a variety of securities, including money market funds, corporate notes and bonds, U.S. government and agency securities, time deposits, certificates of deposit, and commercial paper. Our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term investments are held for working capital, capital expenditure, and general corporate purposes, including repurchases of our common stock under our stock repurchase program as well as acquisitions and strategic investments we may make from time to time. We do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates would have resulted in a decrease of $11.7 million or increase of $11.4 million, respectively, in the market value of our cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term investments as of January 31, 2026.

As of January 31, 2025, we had approximately $5.3 billion of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term and long-term investments, and a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates would have resulted in a decrease or increase of $15.3 million in the market value.

In September 2024, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $2.3 billion of the Notes. Neither the 2027 Notes nor the 2029 Notes bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the Notes will not accrete. We may elect or be required to pay special interest on the Notes under certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the applicable Indenture. Accordingly, we do not have economic interest rate exposure on the Notes. However, the fair value of each series of the Notes fluctuates when interest rates or market prices of our common stock change. We record the Notes at amortized cost on the consolidated balance sheets, and we present the fair value of each series of the Notes for disclosure purposes only. In connection with the Notes offering, we entered into the Capped Calls for a cost of $195.5 million. The Capped Calls are generally expected to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the relevant series of the Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes of such series, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. See Note 10, "Convertible Senior Notes," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details.

***Foreign Currency Exchange Risk***

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, and the functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries is primarily the U.S. dollar. The majority of our sales are currently denominated in U.S. dollars, although we also have sales in Euros and, to a lesser extent, in British pounds, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, Brazilian reals, and Indian rupees. Therefore, our revenue is not currently subject to significant foreign currency risk, but that will likely change in the future as we increase sales in these international currencies and enable sales in additional currencies. Our operating expenses are denominated in the currencies of the countries in which our operations are located, including primarily the United States, and to a lesser extent, in Europe, the Asia-Pacific region, and Canada. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are remeasured to the functional currency at period-end exchange rates. Our consolidated results of operations and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates.

In order to manage our exposure to certain foreign currency exchange risks, we utilize foreign currency forward contracts to hedge primarily a portion of our net outstanding monetary assets and liabilities positions and certain intercompany balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We also utilize foreign currency forward contracts, which we designate as cash flow hedges, to manage (i) the volatility in cash flows associated with a portion of our forecasted operating expenses denominated in certain currencies other than the U.S. dollar and (ii) certain forecasted capital expenditures. All of our foreign currency forward contracts mature within 12 months. These forward contracts reduced, but did not entirely eliminate, the impact of adverse currency exchange rate movements. We did not enter into these forward contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in foreign currency exchange rates would have resulted in a theoretical increase or decrease in operating loss of approximately $50 million, $39 million, and $25 million for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. This sensitivity analysis assumes that all foreign currencies move in the same direction at the same time in the absence of hedging activities. In addition, a strengthening of the U.S. dollar makes our platform more expensive for international customers, which may slow down consumption.

***Other Market Risk***

Our strategic investments consist primarily of non-marketable equity securities recorded at cost minus impairment, if any, and adjusted for observable transactions for the same or similar investments of the same issuer (referred to as the Measurement Alternative). These strategic investments are subject to a wide variety of market-related risks, including volatility in the public and private markets, that could substantially reduce or increase the carrying value of our investments, causing our financial results to fluctuate. Strategic investments are subject to periodic impairment analyses, which involve an assessment of both qualitative and quantitative factors, including the investee's financial metrics, market acceptance of the investee's product or technology, and the rate at which the investee is using its cash.

The following table presents our strategic investments by type (in thousands):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **January 31, 2026** | **January 31, 2025** |
| Equity securities: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Non-marketable equity securities under Measurement Alternative | $359114 | $281158 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Non-marketable equity securities under equity method | 5241 | 5491 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Marketable equity securities | 6264 | 13833 |
| Debt securities: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Non-marketable debt securities | 10000 | 750 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total strategic investments—included in other assets | $380619 | $301232 |

---

See Note 4, "Cash Equivalents, Investments, and Strategic Investments," to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details.

We plan to continue these types of strategic investments as part of our corporate development program. We anticipate additional volatility to our consolidated statements of operations as a result of changes in market prices, changes resulting from observable transactions for the same or similar investments of the same issuer, and impairments to our strategic investments.

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Snowflake Inc.

***Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Snowflake Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 31, 2026 and 2025, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive loss, of stockholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2026, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2026, based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 31, 2026 and 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2026 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2026, based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the COSO.

***Basis for Opinions***

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company's consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

------

***Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

***Critical Audit Matters***

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

*Revenue Recognition - Capacity Arrangements*

As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company delivers its platform over the internet as a service. The Company's customers consume the platform typically under capacity arrangements, in which customers commit to a certain amount of consumption at specified prices. Management recognizes revenue as customers consume compute, storage, and data transfer resources. The Company's total revenue for the year ended January 31, 2026 was $4.7 billion, of which a significant portion is recognized under capacity arrangements.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to revenue recognition - capacity arrangements is a critical audit matter are the significant audit effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence related to revenue recognized under capacity arrangements.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the revenue recognition process, including controls over revenue transactions recognized under capacity arrangements. These procedures also included, among others, evaluating, on a test basis, revenue recognized under capacity arrangements by obtaining and inspecting invoices, customer order forms, cash receipts from customers, and usage records.

<sup>(1)</sup> On July 3, 2025, all authorized shares of the Company's Class B common stock were eliminated and the Company's Class A common stock was renamed to "common stock", pursuant to the terms of the Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation. Unless otherwise noted, all references herein to the Company's common stock refer to the Class A common stock prior to the effectiveness of the certificate. See Note 12, "Equity," for further details.

<sup>(2)</sup> In connection with a business combination completed on December 20, 2023, the Company issued approximately 0.2 million shares of its common stock to one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, in exchange for a noncontrolling equity interest in the acquired company that was held by the subsidiary prior to this business combination. These shares were treated as treasury stock for accounting purposes as of January 31, 2024, and were subsequently transferred to the Company and retired during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025. These shares are not reflected in the table above. See Note 7, "Business Combinations," and Note 12, "Equity," for further details.

**2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

***Fiscal Year***

The Company's fiscal year ends on January 31. For example, references to fiscal 2026 refer to the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.

***Basis of Presentation***

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).

***Principles of Consolidation***

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Snowflake Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and a majority-owned subsidiary in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company records noncontrolling interest in its consolidated financial statements to recognize the minority ownership interest in its majority-owned subsidiary. Profits and losses of the majority-owned subsidiary are attributed to controlling and noncontrolling interests using the hypothetical liquidation at book value method.

***Segment Information***

The Company has a single operating and reportable segment. The Company's chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, including, but not limited to, the Company's consolidated net loss, for purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance, and allocating resources.

<sup>(1)</sup> Third-party cloud infrastructure expenses incurred in connection with customers' use of the Snowflake platform and the deployment and maintenance of the platform on public clouds, including different regional deployments, represented approximately 71%, 65%, and 67% for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

<sup>(2)</sup> Personnel-related expenses, excluding stock-based compensation and associated payroll taxes, represented approximately 37%, 37%, and 38% of the Company's total cost of revenue and operating expenses for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. These expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, bonuses, and sales commissions and draws paid to the Company's sales force, including amortization of deferred commissions, and associated payroll taxes. They also include salaries, benefits, and bonuses allocated as part of overhead costs. See Note 12, "Equity," for details regarding the Company's stock-based compensation.

The measure of segment assets is the total assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. See the Company's consolidated financial statements for other financial information regarding its operating segment.

<sup>(1)</sup> No individual country outside of the United States accounted for more than 10% of the Company's long-lived assets as of January 31, 2026 and 2025.

***Use of Estimates***

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, stand-alone selling prices (SSP) for each distinct performance obligation, software development costs, the expected period of benefit for deferred commissions, the fair value of intangible assets acquired in business combinations, the useful lives of long-lived assets, the carrying value of operating lease right-of-use assets, stock-based compensation, accounting for income taxes, and the fair value of investments in marketable and non-marketable securities.

The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and also on assumptions that management considers reasonable. These estimates are assessed on a regular basis; however, actual results could differ from these estimates.

***Concentration of Credit Risk***

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of cash, cash equivalents, investments in marketable securities, restricted cash, accounts receivable, and foreign currency forward contracts. The Company maintains its cash, cash equivalents, investments in marketable securities, restricted cash and foreign currency forward contracts with high-quality financial institutions that have investment-grade ratings. For accounts receivable, the Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonpayment by customers up to the amounts recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company manages its accounts receivable credit risk through ongoing credit evaluation of its customers' financial conditions. The Company generally does not require collateral from its customers. For information regarding the Company's significant customers, see Note 3, "Revenue, Accounts Receivable, Deferred Revenue, and Remaining Performance Obligations."

***Foreign Currency***

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company's foreign subsidiaries is primarily the U.S. dollar.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are remeasured to the functional currency at period-end exchange rates. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses resulting from remeasurement are recognized in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations, and have not been material for any of the periods presented.

For those subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period. Equity transactions are translated using historical exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of stockholders' equity (deficit).

***Revenue Recognition***

The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* (ASC 606) for all periods presented.

The Company delivers its platform over the internet as a service. Customers choose to consume the platform under either capacity arrangements, in which customers commit to a certain amount of consumption at specified prices, or under on-demand arrangements, in which the Company charges for use of the platform monthly in arrears. Under capacity arrangements, from which a majority of revenue is derived, the Company typically bills its customers annually in advance of their consumption. Revenue from on-demand arrangements typically relates to customers with lower usage levels or overage consumption beyond a customer's contracted usage amount under a capacity contract or following the expiration of a customer's capacity contract. The Company recognizes revenue as customers consume compute, storage, and data transfer resources under either of these arrangements. Revenue from on-demand arrangements represented approximately 1%, 2%, and 3% of the Company's revenue for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

Customers do not have the contractual right to take possession of the Company's platform. Pricing for the platform includes embedded support services, data backup and disaster recovery services, as well as future updates, when and if available, offered during the contract term.

Customer contracts for capacity typically have a term of one to four years. To the extent customers enter into such contracts and either consume the platform in excess of their capacity commitments or continue to use the platform after expiration of the contract term, they are charged for their incremental consumption. In many cases, customer contracts permit customers to roll over any unused capacity to a subsequent order, generally on the purchase of additional capacity.

Customer contracts are generally non-cancelable during the contract term, although customers can terminate for breach if the Company materially fails to perform. For those customers who do not have a capacity arrangement, the Company's on-demand arrangements generally have a monthly stated contract term and can be terminated at any time by either the customer or the Company.

<u>[Tabl](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[e of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

For compute resources, consumption is based on the type of compute resource used and the duration of use or, for some features, the volume of data processed. For storage resources, consumption for a given customer is based on the average terabytes per month of all of such customer's data stored in the platform. For data transfer resources, consumption is based on terabytes of data transferred, the public cloud provider used, and the region to and from which the transfer is executed.

The Company's revenue also includes professional services and other revenue, which consists primarily of consulting, technical solution services, and training related to the platform. Professional services revenue is recognized over time based on input measures, including time and materials costs incurred relative to total costs, with consideration given to output measures, such as contract deliverables, when applicable. Other revenue consists primarily of fees from customer training delivered on-site or through publicly available classes.

The Company determines revenue recognition in accordance with ASC 606 through the following five steps:

*1) Identify the contract with a customer.* The Company considers the terms and conditions of the contracts and the Company's customary business practices in identifying its contracts under ASC 606. The Company determines it has a contract with a customer when the contract has been approved by both parties, it can identify each party's rights regarding the services to be transferred and the payment terms for the services, it has determined the customer to have the ability and intent to pay, and the contract has commercial substance. At contract inception, the Company evaluates whether two or more contracts should be combined and accounted for as a single contract and whether the combined or single contract includes more than one performance obligation. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer's ability and intent to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including the customer's payment history or, in the case of a new customer, credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.

*2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract.* Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. Customers are allowed to select compute, storage, and data transfer resources separately, at their discretion. Consequently, the Company treats the consumption of its platform for compute, storage, and data transfer resources as separate and distinct performance obligations. The Company treats its professional services, technical solution services, and training each as a separate and distinct performance obligation. Some customers have negotiated an option to purchase additional capacity at a stated discount. These options generally do not provide a material right as they are priced at the Company's SSP, as described below, as the stated discounts are not incremental to the range of discounts typically given.

*3) Determine the transaction price.* The transaction price is determined based on the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring services to the customer. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company's judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue recognized under the contract will not occur. Variable consideration is estimated based on expected value, primarily relying on the Company's history. In certain situations, the Company may also use the most likely amount as the basis of its estimate. None of the Company's contracts contain a significant financing component. Revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental entities (e.g., sales and other indirect taxes).

*4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract.* If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation on a relative SSP basis. The determination of a relative SSP for each distinct performance obligation requires judgment. The Company determines SSP for performance obligations based on an observable standalone selling price when it is available, as well as other factors, including the overall pricing objectives, which take into consideration market conditions and customer-specific factors, including a review of internal discounting tables, the services being sold, the volume of capacity commitments, and other factors. The observable standalone selling price is established based on the price at which products and services are sold separately. If an SSP is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates it using available information including, but not limited to, market data and other observable inputs.

*5) Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.* Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised service to a customer. Revenue is recognized when control of the services is transferred to the customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those services. The Company determined an output method for capacity arrangements to be the most appropriate measure of progress because it most faithfully represents when the value of the services is simultaneously received and consumed by the customer, and control is transferred.

***Allocation of Overhead Costs***

Overhead costs that are not substantially dedicated for use by a specific functional group are allocated based on headcount. Such costs include costs associated with office facilities, depreciation of property and equipment, information technology (IT) and general recruiting related expenses and other expenses, such as software and subscription services.

***Cost of Revenue***

Cost of revenue consists primarily of (i) third-party cloud infrastructure expenses incurred in connection with the customers' use of the Snowflake platform and the deployment and maintenance of the platform on public clouds, including different regional deployments, and (ii) personnel-related costs associated with the Company's customer support team, engineering team that is responsible for maintaining the Company's service availability and security of its platform, and professional services and training departments, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, and stock-based compensation. Cost of revenue also includes amortization of capitalized software development costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, costs of contracted third-party partners for professional services, expenses associated with software and subscription services dedicated for use by the Company's customer support team and engineering team responsible for maintaining the Company's service, and allocated overhead.

***Research and Development Costs***

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred, unless they qualify as capitalized software development costs. Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses associated with the Company's research and development staff, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, and stock-based compensation. Research and development expenses also include contractor or professional services fees, third-party cloud infrastructure expenses incurred primarily in developing the Company's platform, amortization of acquired intangible assets, software and subscription services dedicated for use by the Company's research and development organization, and allocated overhead.

***Advertising Costs***

Advertising costs, excluding expenses associated with the Company's user conferences, are expensed as incurred and are included in sales and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. These costs were $121.5 million, $104.5 million, and $85.3 million for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

***Income Taxes***

The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining its provision for income taxes and deferred tax assets and liabilities, including evaluating uncertainties in the application of accounting principles and complex tax laws.

The Company records a provision for income taxes for the anticipated tax consequences of the reported results of operations using the asset and liability method. Under this method, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, as well as for loss and tax credit carryforwards. The deferred assets and liabilities are measured using the statutorily enacted tax rates anticipated to be in effect when those tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date.

------

<u>[Tabl](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[e of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

A valuation allowance is established if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company considers all available evidence, both positive and negative, including historical levels of income, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income in assessing the need for a valuation allowance.

The Company's tax positions are subject to income tax audits by multiple tax jurisdictions throughout the world. The Company recognizes the tax benefit of an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not the position will be sustainable upon examination by the taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. This evaluation is based on all available evidence and assumes that the tax authorities have full knowledge of all relevant information concerning the tax position. The tax benefit recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit which is more likely than not (greater than 50% likely) to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the taxing authority. Accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded as other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets with changes in such amounts recorded in provision for (benefit from) income taxes on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company makes adjustments to these reserves in accordance with the income tax guidance when facts and circumstances change, such as the closing of a tax audit or the refinement of an estimate. To the extent that the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts recorded, such differences may affect the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made and could have a material impact on the Company's financial condition and operating results.

***Stock-Based Compensation***

The Company's equity awards include stock options, restricted stock unit awards (RSUs), restricted common stock granted to employees, non-employee directors, and other service providers, and stock purchase rights granted under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP Rights) to employees. Equity awards are reviewed in determining whether such awards are equity-classified or liability-classified.

Stock-based compensation related to equity-classified awards is measured based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant and generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The fair value of each stock option granted and ESPP Rights is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The determination of the grant-date fair value using an option-pricing model is affected by the estimated fair value of the Company's common stock as well as assumptions regarding a number of other complex and subjective variables. These variables include expected stock price volatility over an expected term, actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, the risk-free interest rate for an expected term, and expected dividends. The fair value of each RSU is based on the fair value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. For equity-classified awards with both service-based and performance-based vesting conditions, the stock-based compensation is recognized using an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, based on the Company's periodic assessment of the probability that the performance condition will be achieved.

Certain RSUs with both service-based and performance-based vesting conditions are liability-classified, as the monetary value of the obligation under each potential outcome of the performance condition is predominantly based on a fixed monetary amount known at inception and will be settled in a variable number of the Company's common stock. The fair value of these awards is estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the use of various assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility and risk-free interest rate. These awards are subsequently remeasured to the fair value at each reporting date until the number of these awards eligible to vest is fixed, at which time these awards will be reclassified to equity. Stock-based compensation associated with these awards is recognized based on the probable outcome of the performance condition, using an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, with a cumulative catch-up adjustment recognized for changes in the fair value estimated at each reporting date.

If an award contains a provision whereby vesting is accelerated upon a change in control, such a change in control is considered to be outside of the Company's control and is not considered probable until it occurs. Forfeitures are accounted for in the period in which they occur.

The Company funds withholding taxes due upon the vesting of employee RSUs in certain jurisdictions by net share settlement. The amount of withholding taxes related to net share settlement of employee RSUs is reflected as (i) a reduction to additional paid-in-capital, and (ii) cash outflows for financing activities when the payments are made. The shares withheld by the Company as a result of the net share settlement of RSUs are not considered issued and outstanding, and do not impact the calculation of basic net income (loss) per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders.

***Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Snowflake Inc. Common Stockholders***

Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders is computed in conformity with the two-class method required for participating securities. The Company considers unvested common stock to be participating securities, as the holders of such stock have the right to receive nonforfeitable dividends on a pari passu basis in the event that a dividend is declared on common stock.

Basic net loss per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders is computed by dividing net loss attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Snowflake Inc. common stock outstanding during the period, which excludes treasury stock. Diluted net loss per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive Snowflake Inc. common stock equivalents to the extent they are dilutive. For purposes of this calculation, RSUs, stock options, restricted common stock, ESPP Rights, and shares underlying the conversion option in the convertible senior notes are considered to be common stock equivalents but have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders as their effect is anti-dilutive for all periods presented.

***Cash and Cash Equivalents***

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original or remaining maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

***Restricted Cash***

Restricted cash primarily consists of (i) cash held in a trust that is restricted for use in meeting the Company's general obligations and (ii) collateralized letters of credit established in connection with lease agreements for the Company's facilities. Restricted cash is classified within prepaid expenses and other current assets or other assets on the consolidated balance sheets, typically based on the remaining term of the restriction.

***Investments***

The Company's investments in marketable debt securities have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale and are recorded at estimated fair value. The Company classifies its marketable debt securities as either short-term or long-term at each balance sheet date based on each instrument's underlying contractual maturity date. Short-term investments are investments with original maturities of less than one year when purchased. Purchase premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted using the effective interest method over the life of the related security and such amortization and accretion are included in interest income in the consolidated statements of operations.

For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before the recovery of its entire amortized cost basis. If either of these criteria is met, the security's amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. If neither of these criteria is met, the Company further assesses whether the decline in fair value below amortized cost is due to credit or non-credit related factors. In making this assessment, the Company considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and any adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. Credit-related unrealized losses are recognized as an allowance on the consolidated balance sheets with a corresponding charge in the other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. Non-credit related unrealized losses and unrealized gains on available-for-sale debt securities are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Realized gains and losses are determined based on the specific identification method and are reported in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations.

<u>[Tabl](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[e of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

***Strategic Investments***

The Company's strategic investments consist primarily of non-marketable equity securities in privately-held companies, in which the Company does not have a controlling interest or significant influence. Strategic investments are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

Non-marketable equity securities are recorded at cost and adjusted for observable transactions for the same or similar investments of the same issuer (referred to as the Measurement Alternative) or impairment. For these investments, the Company recognizes remeasurement adjustments, including upward and downward adjustments, and impairments, if any, in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations. Valuations of privately-held securities are inherently complex due to the lack of readily available market data and require the use of judgment. For example, determining whether an orderly transaction is for an identical or similar investment requires judgment based on the rights and obligations that are attached to the securities. In determining the estimated fair value of these investments, the Company uses the most recent data available to the Company.

Strategic investments are subject to periodic impairment analysis, which would involve an assessment of both qualitative and quantitative factors, including the investee's financial metrics, market acceptance of the investee's product or technology, and the rate at which the investee is using its cash. If the investment is considered impaired, the Company recognizes an impairment through other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations and establishes a new carrying value for the investment.

***Fair Value of Financial Instruments***

The Company's primary financial instruments include cash equivalents, investments in marketable securities, strategic investments, restricted cash, accounts receivable, derivative assets and liabilities, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and convertible senior notes. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. See Note 5, "Fair Value Measurements," and Note 10, "Convertible Senior Notes," for information regarding the fair value of the Company's cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities, strategic investments, and derivative assets and liabilities, as well as the fair value of the Company's convertible senior notes.

***Derivative Financial Instruments***

The Company's derivative financial instruments, which are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets, consist of foreign currency forward contracts as described below:

*Non-Designated Hedges—*The Company utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to manage its exposure to certain foreign currency exchange risks primarily associated with (i) a portion of its net outstanding monetary assets and liabilities positions and (ii) certain intercompany balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. These foreign currency forward contracts have maturities of twelve months or less and are not designated as hedging instruments (Non-Designated Hedges). As such, all changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments are recorded in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of operations, and are intended to offset the foreign currency transaction gains or losses associated with the underlying balances being hedged. Cash flows at settlement of such foreign currency forward contracts are classified as operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

------

<u>[Tabl](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[e of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

*Cash Flow Hedge—*The Company also utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to manage the volatility in cash flows associated with (i) a portion of its forecasted operating expenses denominated in certain currencies other than the U.S. dollar, and (ii) certain forecasted capital expenditures. These foreign currency forward contracts have a maturity of twelve months or less and are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, and, in general, closely match the underlying hedged forecasted transactions in duration. The effectiveness of the cash flow hedges is assessed quantitatively using regression at inception and at each reporting date. The effective portion of these foreign currency forward contracts' gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the consolidated balance sheets, and subsequently reclassified into the same line items on the Company's consolidated statements of operations as the underlying hedged forecasted transactions in the same period that such transactions affect earnings. In the event the underlying forecasted transactions do not occur, or it becomes probable that they will not occur within the defined hedge period, the gains or losses on the related cash flow hedges are reclassified immediately from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to net income (loss) in the Company's consolidated financial statements. Cash flows from such foreign currency forward contracts are classified in the same category on the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows as the cash flows from the underlying hedged forecasted transactions.

***Accounts Receivable, Net***

Accounts receivable include billed and unbilled receivables, net of allowance for credit losses. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts and do not bear interest. The allowance for credit losses is estimated based on the Company's assessment of the collectibility of accounts receivable by considering various factors, including the age of each outstanding invoice, the collection history of each customer, historical write-off experience, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions over the life of the receivable. The Company assesses collectibility by reviewing accounts receivable on an aggregate basis when similar characteristics exist and on an individual basis when specific customers with collectibility issues are identified. Accounts receivable deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance for credit losses when identified.

***Software Development Costs***

The Company capitalizes qualifying internal-use software development costs, which have historically related primarily to its cloud platform, under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 350-40, *Internal-use Software* (ASC 350-40). The costs consist of personnel costs (including related benefits and stock-based compensation) that are incurred during the application development stage. Capitalization of costs begins when two criteria are met: (1) the preliminary project stage is completed, and (2) it is probable that the software will be completed and used for its intended function. Capitalization ceases when the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, including the completion of all significant testing. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post-implementation operating activities are expensed as incurred.

Capitalized internal-use software development costs are included in property and equipment, net on the consolidated balance sheets. These costs are amortized over the estimated useful life of the software, which is three years, on a straight-line basis. Cost and accumulated amortization of fully amortized capitalized internal-use software development costs are removed from the Company's consolidated balance sheets when the related software is no longer in use. The amortization of capitalized internal-use software development costs related to the Company's platform applications is primarily included in cost of revenue in the consolidated statements of operations.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company began marketing the Snowflake platform to selected public sector customers who will have contractual rights to take possession of the Company's software and who will contract with third parties to host the Company's software. As a result, the Company's ongoing and future software development costs related to the Snowflake platform must be accounted for under ASC 985-20, *Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed* (ASC 985-20). All costs to establish technological feasibility are expensed as they are incurred. Technological feasibility is established when the working model is complete, which typically occurs at or shortly before the general release of the software products. Costs incurred subsequent to establishing technological feasibility are capitalized until the software product is available for general release to customers, at which point they are amortized on a product-by-product basis. Software development costs capitalized under ASC 985-20 are included in property and equipment, net on the consolidated balance sheets. Costs that meet the criteria for capitalization under ASC 985-20 were not material for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.

Software development costs capitalized prior to fiscal 2026 in connection with the Snowflake platform will be amortized over their remaining useful life and recognized as cost of revenue.

***Property and Equipment, Net***

Property and equipment, net is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset, generally ranging from three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of estimated useful life or the remaining lease term. Expenses that improve an asset or extend its remaining useful life are capitalized. Costs of maintenance or repairs that do not extend the lives of the respective assets are charged to expenses as incurred. Cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization of fully depreciated property and equipment are removed from the Company's consolidated balance sheets when they are no longer in use.

***Deferred Commissions***

The Company capitalizes incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if such costs are recoverable. Such costs consist primarily of (i) sales commissions earned upon the origination, expansion, or renewal of customer contracts by the Company's sales force, and the associated payroll taxes and fringe benefits, and (ii) certain referral fees earned by third parties (collectively, Commission Costs). Commission Costs for new customer or customer expansion contracts that are not commensurate with those for renewal contracts are capitalized and then amortized over a period of benefit determined to be five years. The Company determined the period of benefit by taking into consideration the length of terms in its customer contracts, life of the technology, and other factors. Commission Costs for renewal contracts, as well as Commission Costs for new customer or customer expansion contracts that are commensurate with those for renewal contracts, are capitalized and then amortized over the respective weighted-average contractual term of the related contracts. Amounts expected to be amortized within one year of the balance sheet date are recorded as deferred commissions, current, and the remaining portion is recorded as deferred commissions, non-current, on the consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense is included in sales and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. In addition to the Commission Costs, the Company's sales force earns sales commissions based on the level of the customers' consumption of the Company's platform. These commissions are not considered incremental costs and are expensed in the same period as they are earned. Deferred commissions are periodically analyzed for impairment. There were no impairment losses relating to the deferred commissions for all periods presented.

***Leases***

The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception by evaluating various factors, including if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration and other facts and circumstances. Lease classification is determined at the lease commencement date. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, operating lease liabilities, current, and operating lease liabilities, non-current on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company did not have any material finance leases for all periods presented.

Right-of-use assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease payments consist primarily of the fixed payments under the arrangement, less any lease incentives. Variable lease payments are expensed as incurred and include certain non-lease components, such as maintenance and other services provided by the lessor to the extent the charges are variable. The Company uses an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate (IBR) based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments, unless the implicit rate is readily determinable. In determining the appropriate IBR, the Company considers various factors, including, but not limited to, its credit rating, the lease term, and the currency in which the arrangement is denominated. The Company's lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Company does not separate non-lease components from lease components for its facility asset portfolio. In addition, the Company does not recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases, which have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. Lease cost for short-term leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

In addition, the Company subleases certain of its unoccupied facilities to third parties. The assessment of impairment of the associated right-of-use assets, leasehold improvements, or other assets as a result of a sublease is performed upon triggering events, including but not limited to the execution of a sublease agreement or the decision to cease using a leased facility prior to the end of the minimum lease term. The Company recognizes sublease income on a straight-line basis over the sublease term. Sublease income is recorded as a reduction to the Company's operating lease costs.

***Business Combinations***

The Company applies a screen test to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets to determine whether a transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition or business combination. When the Company acquires a business, the purchase consideration is allocated to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated respective fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Estimates used in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, time and resources required to recreate the assets acquired. These estimates are based on information obtained from the management of the acquired companies, the Company's assessment of the information, and historical experience. The Company's estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period of up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the preliminary fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with a corresponding offset to goodwill for these business combinations.

***Impairment of Goodwill, Intangible Assets, and Other Long-Lived Assets***

The Company's long-lived assets with finite lives consist primarily of property and equipment, capitalized internal-use software development costs, operating lease right-of-use assets and acquired intangible assets.

Long-lived assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets held and used is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of an asset or an asset group to estimated undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds these estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the asset or asset group.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but rather tested for impairment at least annually in the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Goodwill impairment is recognized when the quantitative assessment results in the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeding its fair value, in which case an impairment charge is recorded to goodwill to the extent the carrying value exceeds the fair value, limited to the amount of goodwill. The Company did not recognize any impairment of goodwill for all periods presented.

***Convertible Senior Notes***

The Company accounts for each series of its convertible senior notes as a liability in its entirety, measured at amortized cost. Debt issuance costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the Company's convertible senior notes are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the outstanding convertible senior notes. These costs are amortized using the effective interest rate method over the terms of the convertible senior notes and are included within interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

In connection with the convertible senior notes offering, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions relating to each series of convertible senior notes with certain counterparties. The capped call transactions are generally expected to reduce the potential dilution to the Company's common stock upon any conversion of the relevant series of convertible senior notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted notes of such series, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. See Note 10, "Convertible Senior Notes," for further details.

***Deferred Revenue***

The Company records deferred revenue when the Company receives customer payments in advance of satisfying the performance obligations on the Company's contracts. Capacity arrangements are generally billed and paid in advance of satisfaction of performance obligations, and the Company's on-demand arrangements are billed in arrears generally on a monthly basis. Deferred revenue also includes amounts that have been invoiced but not yet collected, classified as accounts receivable, when the Company has an enforceable right to consideration for capacity arrangements.

Deferred revenue relating to the Company's capacity arrangements that have a contractual expiration date of less than 12 months are classified as current. For capacity arrangements that have a contractual expiration date of greater than 12 months, the Company apportions deferred revenue between current and non-current based upon an assumed ratable consumption of these capacity arrangements over the entire term of the arrangement, even though it does not recognize revenue ratably over the term of the contract as customers have flexibility in their consumption and revenue is generally recognized on consumption. In addition, in many cases, the Company's customer contracts also permit customers to roll over any unused capacity to a subsequent order, generally on the purchase of additional capacity. As such, the current or non-current classification of deferred revenue may not reflect the actual timing of revenue recognition.

***Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement***

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*, which requires annual disclosure on disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. This guidance is effective for the Company for its fiscal year beginning February 1, 2025 on a prospective basis. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Company adopted this guidance in its consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 on a prospective basis. While the adoption had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements, it resulted in additional disclosures in the accompanying notes. See Note 13, "Income Taxes," for further details.

***Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted***

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses*, which requires disclosure, on an annual and interim basis, of specified information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to financial statements.

________________

<sup>(1)</sup> No individual country in these areas represented more than 10% of the Company's revenue for all periods presented.

<sup>(2)</sup> Includes Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

***Accounts Receivable, Net***

The Company's allowance for credit losses was not material as of each of January 31, 2026 and 2025.

***Significant Customers***

For purposes of assessing the concentration of credit risk and significant customers, a group of customers under common control or customers that are affiliates of each other are regarded as a single customer. As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, there were no customers that represented 10% or more of the Company's accounts receivable, net balance. Additionally, there were no customers that represented 10% or more of the Company's revenue for each of the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024.

***Deferred Revenue***

The Company recognized $2.2 billion, $1.8 billion, and $1.4 billion of revenue for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively, from the deferred revenue balances as of January 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

***Remaining Performance Obligations***

Remaining performance obligations (RPO) represent the amount of contracted future revenue that has not yet been recognized, including (i) deferred revenue and (ii) non-cancelable contracted amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. The Company's RPO excludes performance obligations from on-demand arrangements as there are no minimum purchase commitments associated with these arrangements, and certain time and materials contracts that are billed in arrears. Portions of RPO that are not yet invoiced and are denominated in foreign currencies are revalued into U.S. dollars each period based on the applicable period-end exchange rates.

As of January 31, 2026, the Company's RPO was approximately $9.8 billion, of which the Company expects approximately 46% to be recognized as revenue in the 12 months ending January 31, 2027 based on historical customer consumption patterns. However, the amount and timing of revenue recognition are generally dependent upon customers' future consumption, which is inherently variable at customers' discretion and can extend beyond the original contract term in cases where customers are permitted to roll over unused capacity to future periods, generally on the purchase of additional capacity at renewal.

The Company included $16.9 million and $23.6 million of interest receivable in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company did not recognize an allowance for credit losses against interest receivable as of January 31, 2026 and 2025 because such potential losses were not material.

As of January 31, 2026, the contractual maturities of the Company's available-for-sale marketable debt securities did not exceed 36 months. The estimated fair values of available-for-sale marketable debt securities, classified as short-term or long-term investments on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, by remaining contractual maturity, are as follows (in thousands):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | **January 31, 2026** |
| | **Estimated <br>Fair Value** |
| Due within 1 year | $1201523 |
| Due in 1 year to 3 years | 755013 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total | $1956536 |

---

Gross unrealized losses on the Company's available-for-sale marketable debt securities were not material as of each of January 31, 2026 and 2025.

For available-for-sale marketable debt securities with unrealized loss positions, the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that the Company will hold these securities until maturity or a recovery of the cost basis. The decline in fair values of these securities due to credit related factors was not material as of each of January 31, 2026 and 2025.

________________

<sup>(1)</sup> The net realized gains on strategic investments in equity securities for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024 include primarily a remeasurement gain of $34.0 million recognized on a previously held equity interest as a result of a business combination completed during fiscal 2024. See Note 7, "Business Combinations," for further details. For strategic investments in equity securities sold, the realized gains or losses represent the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the securities at the beginning of the period or the purchase date, if later.

No upward adjustments were recognized for each of the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024. The cumulative upward adjustments and the cumulative impairments to the carrying value of the non-marketable equity securities accounted for using the Measurement Alternative held by the Company as of January 31, 2026 were $18.3 million and $82.8 million, respectively.

**5. Fair Value Measurements**

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The accounting guidance establishes a three-tiered hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value as follows:

***Level 1 Inputs:*** Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.

***Level 2 Inputs:*** Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

***Level 3 Inputs:*** Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of January 31, 2026 (in thousands):

The Company determines the fair value of its security holdings based on pricing from the Company's service providers and market prices from industry-standard independent data providers. Such market prices may be quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1 inputs) or pricing determined using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2 inputs), such as yield curve, volatility factors, credit spreads, default rates, loss severity, current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments or debt, broker and dealer quotes, as well as other relevant economic measures.

The Company's derivative financial instruments, consisting of foreign currency forward contracts, are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. The following table summarizes the notional amounts of the Company's outstanding derivative financial instruments (in thousands):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **January 31, 2026** | **January 31, 2025** |
| Foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments | $228997 | $222027 |

The Company's non-marketable equity securities accounted for using the Measurement Alternative are recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis. When indicators of impairment exist or observable price changes of qualified transactions occur, the respective non-marketable equity security would be classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because significant unobservable inputs or data in an inactive market are used in estimating their fair value. The estimation of fair value for these assets requires the use of an observable transaction price or other unobservable inputs, including the volatility, rights, and obligations of the securities the Company holds. See Note 4, "Cash Equivalents, Investments, and Strategic Investments," for details regarding the Company's strategic investments.

See Note 10, "Convertible Senior Notes," for the fair value measurement of the Company's convertible senior notes.

**7. Business Combinations**

**Fiscal 2026**

***Crunchy Data Solutions, Inc.***

On June 6, 2025, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Crunchy Data Solutions, Inc. (Crunchy Data), a privately-held company that provided PostgreSQL technology, for $164.5 million in cash. The Company acquired Crunchy Data primarily for its talent and developed technology. The Company has accounted for this transaction as a business combination.

The purchase consideration was preliminarily allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company recorded measurement period adjustments which did not have material impacts on goodwill. The preliminary allocation of purchase consideration, inclusive of measurement period adjustments, was as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Estimated Fair Value<br>(in thousands)** | **Estimated Weighted-Average Useful Life**<br>**(in years)** |
| Cash | $221 |  |
| Accounts receivable | 4323 |  |
| Developed technology intangible asset | 46000 | 5 |
| Customer relationships intangible assets | 12000 | 1.6 |
| Deferred revenue | (12028) |  |
| Other net tangible liabilities | (883) |  |
| Deferred tax liabilities, net<sup>(1)</sup> | (3324) |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total identifiable net assets | 46309 |  |
| Goodwill | 118142 |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total purchase consideration | $164451 |  |

---

________________

<sup>(1)</sup> Deferred tax liabilities, net primarily relate to the intangible assets acquired and the amount presented is net of deferred tax assets.

The fair values of the developed technology intangible assets were estimated using the discounted cash flow method, which utilizes assumptions including projected future revenue generated from the acquired developed technology, projected profit margin, discount rate, and technology migration curve. The acquired intangible assets had a total weighted-average amortization period of 4.3 years.

The excess of purchase consideration over the preliminary fair values of identifiable net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. The Company believes the goodwill balance associated with this business combination represents the synergies expected from expanded market opportunities when integrating the acquired developed technologies with the Company's offerings.

***Other Fiscal 2026 Business Combinations***

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company completed two acquisitions for an aggregated purchase consideration of $37.1 million in cash or a combination of cash and the Company's common stock. The aggregated purchase consideration was comprised of $24.0 million in cash and $13.1 million in the Company's common stock, representing the fair value of approximately 0.1 million shares issued based on the closing market price of $244.66 per share of the Company's common stock on the acquisition date. The Company has accounted for these transactions as business combinations. In allocating the aggregate purchase consideration based on the estimated fair values, the Company recorded $3.2 million of cash acquired, $17.6 million of developed technology intangible assets, $3.2 million of net deferred tax liabilities, and $19.5 million of goodwill, of which $9.3 million is deductible and $10.2 million is not deductible for income tax purposes. The acquired intangible assets had a total weighted-average amortization period of five years.

The excess of purchase consideration over the fair values of net tangible and identifiable assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The Company believes the goodwill balances associated with these business combinations are primarily attributed to the assembled workforce and expected synergies arising from the acquisition.

Acquisition-related costs, recorded as general and administrative expenses, associated with each of the fiscal 2026 business combinations were not material during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.

From the respective dates of acquisition through January 31, 2026, revenue attributable to each of the companies acquired in fiscal 2026, included in the Company's consolidated statements of operations for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 was not material. It was impracticable to determine the effect on the Company's net loss attributable to each of the companies acquired in fiscal 2026 as these operations have been integrated into the Company's ongoing operations since the respective dates of acquisition.

The excess of purchase consideration over the fair values of identifiable net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. The Company believes the goodwill balance associated with this business combination represents the synergies expected from expanded market opportunities when integrating the acquired developed technologies with the Company's offerings.

**10. Convertible Senior Notes**

In September 2024, the Company issued an aggregate principal amount of $2.3 billion of convertible senior notes in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers, comprising of (i) $1.15 billion aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2027 (2027 Notes) and (ii) $1.15 billion aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2029 (2029 Notes, and together with the 2027 Notes, the Notes). Each series of Notes was issued pursuant to separate indentures, as supplemented (each an Indenture and together, the Indentures), between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee.

The Notes are general, senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The 2027 Notes will mature on October 1, 2027 and the 2029 Notes will mature on October 1, 2029, in each case unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased. Neither the 2027 Notes nor the 2029 Notes bear regular interest, and the principal amount of the Notes will not accrete. The Company may elect or be required to pay special interest on the Notes under certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the applicable Indenture. Special interest, if any, will be payable semiannually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on April 1, 2025. The total proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were approximately $2.27 billion, net of $31.2 million of debt issuance costs.

The following table presents the details of each series of Notes:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|

| 2029 Notes | 6.3492 | $157.50 | 7302 |

---

The conversion rate for each series of Notes is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the applicable Indenture. In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date of the relevant series of Notes or if the Company delivers a notice of redemption in respect of a series of Notes, the Company will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate of the relevant series of Notes for a holder who elects to convert its Notes of the applicable series in connection with such a corporate event or convert its Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption during the related redemption period (as defined in the applicable Indenture), as the case may be.

Holders may convert all or any portion of the 2027 Notes and 2029 Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding July 1, 2027 and July 1, 2029, respectively, in each case only upon satisfaction of one or more of the following conditions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after the fiscal quarter ending on January 31, 2025 (and only during such fiscal quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price for the relevant series of Notes on each applicable trading day (Sale Price Trigger);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period (Measurement Period) in which the trading price (as defined in the Indentures) per $1,000 principal amount of the 2027 Notes or the 2029 Notes, as applicable, for each trading day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock and the conversion rate for such Notes on each such trading day;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) if the Company calls the relevant series of Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date, but only with respect to the Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as set forth in the applicable Indenture.

On or after July 1, 2027, in the case of the 2027 Notes, and on or after July 1, 2029, in the case of the 2029 Notes, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the relevant maturity date, holders of the relevant series of Notes may convert all or any portion of their Notes of such series at any time, regardless of the foregoing conditions.

Upon conversion, the Company may satisfy its conversion obligation by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of the Company's common stock or a combination of both, at the Company's election, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions provided in the applicable Indenture.

The Company may, at its option, redeem for cash all or any portion of the 2027 Notes (subject to the partial redemption limitation set forth in the Indenture governing the 2027 Notes), on or after April 6, 2026 if the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock has been at least 150% of the conversion price then in effect for the 2027 Notes for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2027 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. The Company may, at its option, redeem for cash all or any portion of the 2029 Notes (subject to the partial redemption limitation set forth in the Indenture governing the 2029 Notes), on or after October 6, 2027 if the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for the 2029 Notes for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes.

If the Company undergoes a fundamental change (as defined in the applicable Indenture) prior to the maturity date of a series of Notes, then, subject to certain conditions and except as set forth in the applicable Indenture, holders of the relevant series of Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes of such series at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the relevant series of Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to, but excluding, the relevant fundamental change repurchase date.

Each of the Indentures governing the 2027 Notes or the 2029 Notes includes customary covenants and sets forth certain events of default after which the relevant series of Notes may be declared immediately due and payable and sets forth certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default (as defined in the applicable Indenture) involving the Company after which such Notes become automatically due and payable.

<u>[Tabl](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)[e of Contents](#i801cc07c693742f0a43117ece723131e_7)</u>

Each series of Notes is accounted for as a liability in its entirety, measured at amortized cost. The debt issuance costs for each series of the Notes are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over their respective terms, with effective interest rates of 0.04% for the 2027 Notes and 0.02% for the 2029 Notes.

The Sale Price Trigger was met during each of the three months ended July 31, 2025, October 31, 2025, and January 31, 2026, and as a result, holders may convert the Notes at any time during each of the three months ending October 31, 2025, January 31, 2026, and April 30, 2026. The Company continues to classify the net carrying amount of the Notes as a non-current liability as the Company has the option to settle the obligation in shares upon conversion and the Notes' maturity dates are more than 12 months away.

The following table presents the net carrying values and fair values of each series of Notes as of January 31, 2026 (in thousands):

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Principal** | **Unamortized Debt Issuance Costs** | **Net Carrying Value** | **Fair Value** | **Fair Value** |
| | **Principal** | **Unamortized Debt Issuance Costs** | **Net Carrying Value** | **Amount** | **Leveling** |
| 2027 Notes | $1150000 | $8701 | $1141299 | $1559235 | Level 2 |
| 2029 Notes | $1150000 | $11472 | $1138528 | $1620542 | Level 2 |

---

The fair value was determined based on the quoted prices of the Notes in an inactive market on the last traded day of the fiscal quarter and has been classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Amortization of debt issuance costs was not material for each of the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025.

The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering to (i) pay the $195.5 million cost of the privately negotiated capped call transactions relating to each series of the Notes, as described below, and (ii) repurchase $399.6 million of its common stock from purchasers of the Notes in the offering in privately negotiated transactions entered into in connection with the Notes offering at a purchase price of $112.50 per share.

***Capped Call Transactions***

In connection with the Notes offering, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions relating to each series of Notes (Capped Calls) with certain of the initial purchasers or affiliates thereof and certain other financial institutions. The Capped Calls are generally expected to reduce the potential dilution to the Company's common stock upon any conversion of the relevant series of the Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes of such series, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap based on a cap price initially equal to $225.00 per share.

The following table sets forth other key terms (subject to certain adjustments) and premiums paid for the Capped Calls related to each series of Notes (in thousands, except per share data):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Capped Calls Entered into in Connection with the Offering of the 2027 Notes** | **Capped Calls Entered into in Connection with the Offering of the 2029 Notes** |
| Initial number of shares covered | 7302 | 7302 |
| Initial strike price | $157.50 | $157.50 |
| Initial cap price | $225.00 | $225.00 |
| Total premium paid | $94300 | $101200 |

---

The Capped Calls are separate transactions, and not part of the terms of any series of Notes. As the Capped Calls qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting for instruments that are both indexed to the issuer's own stock and classified in stockholders' equity, the premiums paid for the purchases of the Capped Calls was recorded as a reduction to the additional paid-in capital and will not be remeasured as long as they continue to meet the conditions for equity classification.

The Company elected to integrate the Capped Calls with the Notes for income tax purposes pursuant to applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations. Accordingly, the premiums paid for the purchases of the Capped Calls are deductible for income tax purposes over the term of the Notes.

**11. Commitments and Contingencies**

***Operating Leases***

The Company leases its facilities for office space under non-cancelable operating leases with various expiration dates through fiscal 2039. Certain lease agreements include options to renew or terminate the lease, which are not reasonably certain to be exercised and therefore are not factored into the determination of lease payments.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company recognized impairment charges of $87.9 million for operating lease right-of-use assets, and $20.8 million for property and equipment, net, primarily relating to the cease-use of its San Mateo office facility. These impairment charges represent the amounts by which the carrying values of the asset groups exceeded their estimated fair values, and were recorded as general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of operations. The fair values of the impaired asset groups were estimated using discounted cash flow models (income approach) based on market participant assumptions, including the expected downtime prior to the commencement of future subleases, projected sublease income over the remaining lease periods, and discount rates to reflect the level of risk associated with receiving future cash flows. These assumptions are classified within Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of the impaired asset groups are not material.

In addition, the Company subleases certain of its unoccupied facilities to third parties with various expiration dates through fiscal 2033. Such subleases have all been classified as operating leases.

The components of lease costs and other information related to leases were as follows (in thousands):

***Legal Matters***—On March 23, 2021, a former employee filed a charge with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) claiming that he was terminated in retaliation for engaging in concerted activity protected under the National Labor Relations Act. On September 15, 2023, following a hearing before a NLRB administrative law judge, the administrative law judge issued his ruling in favor of the former employee and ordered that he be awarded certain compensatory and other damages. The Company is appealing the ruling to the Board of the NLRB. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that a loss could ultimately result from an unfavorable outcome and that an estimate of the potential range of loss is between zero and $25 million, plus interest. No material loss accrual was recorded on the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of each of January 31, 2026 and January 31, 2025, because management believes the likelihood of material loss resulting from this charge is not probable given the further appellate proceedings that are due to take place.

On February 29, 2024, a stockholder class action lawsuit was filed against the Company, the Company's former Chief Executive Officer, and the Company's former Chief Financial Officer in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging violations under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. On April 7, 2025, the lead plaintiff filed a second amended complaint seeking an unspecified amount of damages, attorneys' fees, expert fees, and other costs. On February 17, 2026, the Court granted the Company's motion to dismiss the second amended complaint, but granted the lead plaintiff leave to file a third amended complaint. In addition, since the filing of the class action lawsuit, five additional complaints containing securities derivative claims have been filed in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware, United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and United States District Court for the Northern District of California, respectively, against the Company and certain of the Company's directors and executive officers alleging similar violations. The derivative claims had been stayed pending resolution of the motion to dismiss the class action lawsuit and the parties have agreed to extend the stays through the resolution of the anticipated motion to dismiss the third amended complaint. The Company is unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss, or range of loss, with respect to these matters at this time. The Company and the other defendants intend to vigorously defend against the claims in these actions.

On June 13, 2024, a class action was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Montana against the Company alleging that the Company failed to take reasonable measures to secure systems that contained consumer data, thereby allowing threat actors to access and exfiltrate personally identifiable information. In the months that followed, numerous additional class actions making the same or similar allegations were filed in the United States and Canada against the Company and/or customers whose consumer or employee data was exfiltrated. Among other claims, the complaints assert common law claims for negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of implied contract, and unjust enrichment, as well as statutory claims, and seek an unspecified amount of damages, attorneys' fees and costs, as well as injunctive relief. On October 4, 2024, an order was issued by the United States Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation combining the class actions filed in the United States into a multidistrict litigation in the District of Montana. On February 3, 2025, plaintiffs filed their representative complaint on behalf of the consumer plaintiffs. On February 14, 2025, the Court created a separate financial institution track to represent the interests of certain financial institutions (FI Plaintiffs) and an FI Plaintiff representative complaint was subsequently filed. On May 20, 2025, the plaintiffs filed an amended representative complaint on behalf of the consumer plaintiffs that asserted additional claims regarding the breach of a Snowflake customer account containing personally identifiable information from the Los Angeles Unified School District. On October 28 and 29, 2025, the Court denied the Company's motions to dismiss the claims of the consumer plaintiffs and FI Plaintiffs. On December 19, 2025, the Company filed its answers to the complaints and the matter is currently in discovery. In addition to the multidistrict litigation, a class action is pending in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. The Company is unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss, or range of loss, with respect to these matters at this time. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the claims in these actions.

On November 21, 2025, a class action lawsuit was filed against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Montana alleging copyright infringement on behalf of a putative class of individuals and entities that own a United States copyright in any work that was allegedly copied, stored, or used without authorization to train our large language model. The complaint seeks an award of statutory and other damages, attorneys' fees, and all appropriate legal and equitable relief. On January 22, 2026, the Company filed its answer to the complaint and the matter is currently in discovery. The Company is unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss, or range of loss, with respect to this matter at this time. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the claims in this action.

On February 24, 2026, a stockholder class action lawsuit was filed against the Company, the Company's former Chief Executive Officer, and the Company's former Chief Financial Officer in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging violations under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. The complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages, attorneys' fees, and other costs. The Company is unable to estimate any reasonably possible loss, or range of loss, with respect to this matter at this time. The Company and the other defendants intend to vigorously defend against the claims in this action.

In addition, the Company is involved from time to time in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. While it is not feasible to predict or determine the ultimate outcome of these matters, the Company believes that none of its current legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

***Letters of Credit***—As of January 31, 2026, the Company had a total of $24.6 million in cash collateralized letters of credit outstanding, substantially in favor of certain landlords for the Company's leased facilities. These letters of credit renew annually and expire at various dates through fiscal 2039.

***Indemnification***—The Company enters into indemnification provisions under agreements with other parties in the ordinary course of business, including business partners, investors, contractors, customers, and the Company's officers, non-employee directors, and certain employees. The Company has agreed to indemnify and defend the indemnified party for claims and related losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party from actual or threatened third-party claims due to the Company's activities or non-compliance with certain representations and warranties made by the Company. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential loss under these indemnification provisions due to the Company's limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular provision. For each of the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, losses recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in connection with the indemnification provisions, where the Company is an indemnifying party, were not material.

**12. Equity**

***Preferred Stock***—The Company's amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorized the issuance of 200.0 million shares of undesignated preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share and with rights and preferences, including voting rights, designated from time to time by the board of directors. No preferred stock was outstanding during any periods presented.

***Common Stock***—On July 3, 2025, the Company filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware effecting (i) the elimination of the Company's Class B common stock, and (ii) the renaming of the Company's Class A common stock to "common stock". Upon the effectiveness of the certificate, the Company's total number of authorized shares of Class B common stock was reduced from 185.5 million shares to zero. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters subject to a stockholder vote. This amendment had no impact on the Company's issued and outstanding shares, additional paid-in capital, or accumulated deficit. Unless otherwise noted, all references herein to the Company's common stock refer to the Class A common stock prior to the effectiveness of the certificate.

The Company had reserved shares of common stock for future issuance under the Company's equity incentive plans as follows (in thousands):

***Stock Repurchase Program***—In February 2023, the Company's board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $2.0 billion of the Company's outstanding common stock. Repurchases may be effected, from time to time, either on the open market (including via pre-set trading plans), in privately negotiated transactions, or through other transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws. The timing and amount of any repurchases will be determined by management based on an evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion. In August 2024, the Company's board of directors authorized the repurchase of an additional $2.5 billion of its outstanding common stock and extended the expiration date of the stock repurchase program from March 2025 to March 2027.

The following table summarizes the stock repurchase activity under the Company's stock repurchase program (in thousands, except per share data):

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Fiscal Year Ended January 31,** | **Fiscal Year Ended January 31,** | **Fiscal Year Ended January 31,** |
| | **2026** | **2025** | **2024** |
| Number of shares repurchased | 4925 | 14765 | 4012 |
| Weighted-average price per share<sup>(1)</sup> | $177.37 | $130.87 | $147.49 |
| Aggregate purchase price<sup>(1)</sup> | $873471 | $1932164 | $591673 |

---

________________

<sup>(1)</sup> Excludes transaction costs and excise tax, if any, associated with the repurchases.

All repurchases presented in the table above were made in open market transactions, except for the 3.6 million shares of the Company's outstanding common stock that were repurchased during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025 for $399.6 million from purchasers of the Notes in the offering in privately negotiated transactions entered into in connection with the Notes offering at a purchase price of $112.50 per share. See Note 10, "Convertible Senior Notes," for further details.

As of January 31, 2026, approximately $1.1 billion remained available for future stock repurchases under the stock repurchase program (exclusive of any transaction costs associated with repurchases). The first 0.5 million shares repurchased under the Company's authorized stock repurchased program were recorded in treasury stock as a reduction to the stockholders' equity on the consolidated balance sheets. All shares of common stock subsequently repurchased were retired. Upon retirement, the par value of the common stock repurchased was deducted from common stock and any excess of repurchase price (including associated transaction costs) over par value was recorded entirely to retained earnings (accumulated deficit) on the consolidated balance sheets.

***Treasury Stock***—As described above, 0.5 million shares were repurchased under the Company's authorized stock repurchase program and recorded in treasury stock, of which approximately 37,000, 56,000, and 8,000 shares were reissued upon settlement of equity awards during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

In addition, during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024, in connection with the Samooha business combination as discussed in Note 7, "Business Combinations," the Company issued approximately 0.2 million shares of its common stock to one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries in exchange for a noncontrolling equity interest in Samooha that was held by the subsidiary prior to this business combination. These shares were treated as treasury stock for accounting purposes as of January 31, 2024, and were subsequently transferred to the Company and retired during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025.

***Equity Incentive Plans***—The Company's 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (2020 Plan) provides for the grant of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, RSUs, performance awards and other forms of equity compensation (collectively, equity awards). All shares that remain available for future grants are under the 2020 Plan.

The Company's 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (2012 Plan) provided for the grant of equity awards to employees, non-employee directors, and other service providers of the Company. The 2012 Plan was terminated in September 2020 in connection with the Company's initial public offering (IPO) but continues to govern the terms of outstanding awards that were granted prior to the termination of the 2012 Plan. Upon the expiration, forfeiture, cancellation, or reacquisition of any shares of common stock underlying outstanding equity awards granted under the 2012 Plan, an equal number of shares of common stock will become available for grant under the 2020 Plan. No further equity awards will be granted under the 2012 Plan.

A total of 34.1 million shares of the Company's common stock was initially reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan in addition to (i) any annual automatic evergreen increases in the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan and (ii) upon the expiration, forfeiture, cancellation, or reacquisition of any shares of Class B common stock underlying outstanding stock awards granted under the 2012 Plan, an equal number of shares of common stock, such number of shares not to exceed 78.8 million. On February 1, 2025, the shares available for future grants under the 2020 Plan were automatically increased by 16.7 million shares pursuant to the provision described in the preceding sentence.

The Company's 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (2020 ESPP) authorizes the issuance of shares of common stock pursuant to purchase rights granted to employees. A total of 5.7 million shares of the Company's common stock was initially reserved for future issuance under the 2020 ESPP, in addition to any annual automatic evergreen increases in the number of shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under the 2020 ESPP. On February 1, 2025, the shares available for future grants under the 2020 ESPP were automatically increased by 3.3 million shares pursuant to the provision described in the preceding sentence. The price at which common stock is purchased under the 2020 ESPP is equal to 85% of the fair market value of a share of the Company's common stock on the first or last day of the offering period, whichever is lower. Offering periods are generally six months long and begin on the first trading day immediately after the last day of the prior offering period, typically around March 15 and September 15 of each year, except for the first two offering periods. The initial offering period began on September 15, 2020 and ended on February 26, 2021. The second offering period began on March 1, 2021 and ended on September 14, 2021.

***Stock Options***—Stock options granted under the 2012 Plan and the 2020 Plan (collectively, the Plans) generally vest based on continued service over four years and expire ten years from the date of grant.

A summary of stock option activity during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024 is as follows:

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025 was $79.16 per share. No options were granted during each of the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and January 31, 2024. The intrinsic value of options exercised during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024 was $1.6 billion, $913.9 million, and $1.3 billion, respectively. The aggregate grant-date fair value of options that vested during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024 was $30.5 million, $31.2 million, and $42.3 million, respectively.

***Equity-Classified RSUs***—RSUs granted under the 2012 Plan are equity-classified and had both service-based and performance-based vesting conditions, of which the performance-based vesting condition was satisfied upon the effectiveness of the IPO in September 2020. The service-based vesting condition for these awards is typically satisfied over four years with a cliff vesting period of one year and continued vesting quarterly thereafter. Stock-based compensation associated with RSUs granted under the 2012 Plan was recognized using an accelerated attribution method from the time it was deemed probable that the vesting condition was met through the time the service-based vesting condition had been achieved.

Equity-classified RSUs granted under the 2020 Plan include those that only contain a service-based vesting condition that is typically satisfied over four years, and the related stock-based compensation for these RSUs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. In addition, under the 2020 Plan, the Company granted 0.4 million, 0.8 million, and 0.5 million equity-classified RSUs (Leadership PRSUs) to its executive officers and certain other members of its senior leadership team during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. These Leadership PRSUs were granted at 120% of the target number of these awards, representing the maximum number of Leadership PRSUs that may be eligible to vest over their full term, and have both service-based and performance-based vesting conditions. The service-based vesting condition for these Leadership PRSUs is typically satisfied over four years with a cliff vesting period of one year and continued vesting quarterly thereafter. The performance-based vesting condition is satisfied upon the achievement of certain Company annual performance targets set by the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company. The ultimate number of the Leadership PRSUs eligible to vest ranges between 0% to 120% of the target number of the Leadership PRSUs based on the weighted-average achievement of such Company annual performance metrics for the respective fiscal year. Stock-based compensation associated with these Leadership PRSUs is recognized using an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, based on the Company's periodic assessment of the probability that the performance condition will be achieved. Stock-based compensation recognized for these Leadership PRSUs was $44.1 million, $60.2 million, and $30.8 million for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

A summary of equity-classified RSUs activity during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025, and 2024 is as follows:

***Liability-Classified RSUs***—During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024, in connection with the Samooha business combination as discussed in Note 7, "Business Combinations," the Company agreed to grant, under the 2020 Plan, RSUs that contain both post-combination service-based and performance-based vesting conditions (Acquisition PRSUs) to eligible existing or future employees, subject to a maximum total number of approximately 1.7 million shares. The post-combination service-based vesting condition for these Acquisition PRSUs is satisfied over four years with a cliff vesting period of one year and continued vesting quarterly thereafter. The performance-based vesting condition is contingent on the achievement of certain performance metric over the 12-month period ending January 31, 2027. Acquisition PRSUs will vest when both service-based and performance-based conditions are satisfied. The ultimate number of Acquisition PRSUs eligible to vest is determined based on the actual achievement of the performance metric, which takes into account certain factors including the Company's stock price and market capitalization.

Once granted, Acquisition PRSUs are initially liability-classified and recorded in other liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, as the monetary value of the obligation under each potential outcome of the performance condition is predominantly based on a fixed monetary amount known at inception and will be settled in a variable number of shares. Subsequently, these awards are remeasured to the fair value at each reporting date until the number of Acquisition PRSUs eligible to vest is fixed, at which time these awards will be reclassified to equity. Stock-based compensation associated with these awards is recognized based on the probable outcome of the performance condition, using an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period, with a cumulative catch-up adjustment recognized for changes in the fair value estimated at each reporting date. As of January 31, 2025, the liabilities associated with these Acquisition PRSUs were $11.1 million. The liabilities associated with these Acquisition PRSUs were not material as of each of January 31, 2026 and January 31, 2024.

A summary of liability-classified RSUs activity during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024 is as follows:

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, in connection with the Datavolo business combination, the Company issued to certain of Datavolo's employees a total of 0.4 million shares of the Company's common stock in exchange for a portion of their Datavolo stock. These shares are subject to vesting agreements pursuant to which the shares will vest over four years, subject to each of these employees' continued employment with the Company or its affiliates. The $64.6 million fair value of these shares is accounted for as post-combination stock-based compensation over the requisite service period of four years. As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, 0.3 million and 0.4 million shares remained unvested.

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024, in connection with the Samooha business combination, the Company issued to certain of Samooha's employees a total of 0.4 million shares of the Company's common stock in exchange for a portion of their Samooha stock. These shares are subject to vesting agreements pursuant to which the shares will vest over four years, subject to each of these employees' continued employment with the Company or its affiliates. The $74.8 million fair value of these shares is accounted for as post-combination stock-based compensation over the requisite service period of four years. As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, 0.2 million and 0.3 million shares remained unvested, respectively.

See Note 7, "Business Combinations," for further details.

***Stock-Based Compensation****—*The following table summarizes the assumptions used in estimating the grant-date fair values of stock options granted to employees during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | **Fiscal Year Ended January 31, 2025** |

In addition, for the stock option granted during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, the shares to be issued upon exercise are subject to a one-year holding period. As such, the Company applied a 7.6% discount for lack of marketability to the fair value estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, based on the assumptions included in the table above.

No stock options were granted during each of the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and January 31, 2024.

The following table summarizes the assumptions used in estimating the fair values of ESPP Rights granted under the 2020 ESPP during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024:

| Expected dividend yield | —% | —% | —% |

*Expected term*—For stock options considered to be "plain vanilla" options, the Company estimates the expected term based on the simplified method, which is essentially the weighted average of the vesting period and contractual term, as the Company's historical option exercise experience does not provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term. The expected term for ESPP Rights approximates the offering period.

*Expected volatility*—In fiscal 2024, the Company used the average volatility of its common stock and the stocks of a peer group of representative public companies to develop an expected volatility assumption. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, the Company began using the average of (i) the historical volatility of its common stock, and (ii) the implied volatility from publicly traded options on its common stock to develop an expected volatility assumption.

*Risk-free interest rate*—Risk-free rate is estimated based upon quoted market yields for the United States Treasury debt securities for a term consistent with the expected life of the awards in effect at the time of grant.

*Expected dividend yield*—Because the Company has never paid and has no intention to pay cash dividends on common stock, the expected dividend yield is zero.

*Fair value of underlying common stock*—The fair value of the Company's common stock is determined by the closing price, on the date of grant, of its common stock, which is traded on the New York Stock Exchange.

The following table summarizes the assumptions used in estimating the fair value of liability-classified Acquisition PRSUs as of January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024:

| Risk-free interest rate | 3.5% | 4.2% | 4.0% |

*Expected volatility*—In fiscal 2024, expected volatility was estimated based on the historical volatility of the Company's common stock. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, the Company began using the average of (i) the historical volatility of its common stock, and (ii) the implied volatility from publicly traded options on its common stock to develop an expected volatility assumption.

*Risk-free interest rate*—Risk-free rate is estimated based upon quoted market yields for the United States Treasury debt securities for a term that approximates the period from the reporting date to January 31, 2027.

The valuation allowance was $3.7 billion and $3.1 billion as of January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, primarily relating to U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, capitalized research and development, and tax credit carryforwards. The valuation allowance increased $591.6 million and $520.4 million during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and January 31, 2024, respectively, primarily due to increased U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, capitalized research and development, and tax credit carryforwards. The valuation allowance increased $483.5 million during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, primarily due to increased capitalized research and development and tax credit carryforwards.

As of January 31, 2026, the Company had U.S. federal, state, and foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $7.3 billion, $6.5 billion, and $174.5 million, respectively. Of the $7.3 billion U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards, $7.2 billion may be carried forward indefinitely with utilization limited to 80% of taxable income, and the remaining $0.1 billion will begin to expire in 2032. The state net operating loss carryforwards begin to expire in 2027. The foreign net operating loss carryforwards may be carried forward indefinitely. As of January 31, 2026, the Company also had federal and state tax credits of $605.6 million and $275.5 million, respectively. The federal tax credit carryforwards will expire beginning in 2032 if not utilized. The state tax credit carryforwards do not expire. Utilization of the Company's net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. Such an annual limitation could result in the expiration of the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards before utilization.

Foreign withholding taxes have not been provided for the cumulative undistributed earnings of the Company's foreign subsidiaries as of January 31, 2026 due to the Company's intention to permanently reinvest such earnings.

The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders for the periods presented because the impact of including them would have been anti-dilutive (in thousands):

The Company entered into the Capped Calls in connection with the Notes offering. The effect of the Capped Calls was also excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to Snowflake Inc. common stockholders as the effect of the Capped Calls would have been anti-dilutive. The Capped Calls are generally expected to reduce the potential dilution to the Company's common stock upon any conversion of the relevant series of the Notes. See Note 10, "Convertible Senior Notes," for further details.

**15. Related Party Transactions**

Jeremy Burton, a former member of the Company's board of directors who served from March 2016 to January 2026, served as the chief executive officer and a member of the board of directors of Observe, Inc. (Observe), a privately-held company, until February 2, 2026. Observe had been the Company's customer since 2018.

In January 2024, the Company renewed its customer agreement with Observe for a term of two years with a total contract value of $22.5 million. In November 2024, an additional customer agreement was entered into with Observe for a term of 13 months with a total contract value of $1.5 million. In July 2025, the Company entered into an additional customer agreement with Observe for a term of three years with a total contract value of $67.5 million. In August 2025, the Company also entered into a vendor agreement with Observe for a term of five months with a total contract value of $1.1 million. With respect to Observe, the Company recognized $24.6 million, $12.9 million, and $6.8 million of revenue for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not have material accounts receivable balance due from Observe.

During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, as a minority investor, the Company made strategic investments of $20.0 million and $5.0 million, respectively, by purchasing non-marketable equity securities issued by Observe.

On February 2, 2026, the Company acquired the remaining ownership interest of Observe. See Note 16, "Subsequent Events," for further details.

**16. Subsequent Events**

***Business Combination***

On February 2, 2026, the Company acquired all the outstanding capital stock of Observe, a privately-held company that built an AI-powered observability platform. The Company acquired Observe primarily for its developed technology and talent. The transaction will be accounted for as a business combination.

Prior to this business combination, the Company held a noncontrolling equity interest in Observe, which was accounted for using the Measurement Alternative with a carrying amount of $25.0 million (Previously Held Observe Equity Interest). Accordingly, the Company remeasured the Previously Held Observe Equity Interest at the date of the acquisition and recognized a loss of $2.2 million, which will be recorded in other income (expense), net on the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ending April 30, 2026.

The acquisition date fair value of the preliminary purchase consideration was approximately $596.2 million, which was comprised of the following (in thousands), subject to the finalization of certain customary purchase price adjustments:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | **Estimated Fair Value** |
| Cash | $286172 |
| Common stock<sup>(1)</sup> | 285348 |
| Fair value of previously held equity interest<sup>(2)</sup> | 22768 |
| Settlement of preexisting relationships<sup>(3)</sup> | 1952 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total | $596240 |

---

________________

<sup>(1)</sup> Approximately 1.5 million shares of the Company's common stock were included in the purchase consideration and the fair values of these shares were determined based on the closing market price of $190.68 per share on the acquisition date.

<sup>(2)</sup> The amount was determined based on the closing market price of $190.68 per share on the acquisition date.

<sup>(3)</sup> The amount represents the effective settlement of outstanding receivables and payables between the Company and Observe. No gain or loss was recognized upon settlement as amounts were determined to be reflective of fair market value.

Additionally, $212.0 million in RSUs were granted under the 2020 Plan for continuing employees attributable to post-combination services, and will be recognized as stock-based compensation over the requisite service period of two or four years.

Acquisition-related costs, recorded as general and administrative expenses, associated with this business combination were not material during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.

As discussed in Note 15, "Related Party Transactions," prior to this business combination, Mr. Burton, a former member of the Company's board of directors, served as the chief executive officer and a member of the board of directors of Observe.

The company is currently evaluating the purchase price allocation for the transaction. Given the limited time since the acquisition date, it is not practicable to disclose the initial accounting, including the purchase price allocation, or unaudited pro forma combined financial information for this transaction at the time of this filing.

***Operating Leases***

As set forth in Note 11, "Commitments and Contingencies," in February 2026, the Company entered into agreements for new office facilities located in the United States and Germany, with a total commitment of $85 million, net of tenant incentives expected to be received. These leases will commence on various dates starting in fiscal 2027 with lease terms ranging from 7.2 years to 12.3 years. The Company will recognize the related right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, which have not yet been determined, at the respective lease commencement dates.

**ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE**

None.

**ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

***Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures***

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of January 31, 2026. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of January 31, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

***Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2026 based on criteria established in *Internal Control - Integrated Framework* (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on the assessment, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of January 31, 2026. The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2026 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which is included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

***Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended January 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

***Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls***

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. However, our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

## Exhibit 4.2

**Exhibit 4.2**

**DESCRIPTION OF THE REGISTRANT'S SECURITIES REGISTERED** 

**PURSUANT TO SECTION 12 OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934**

Snowflake Inc. has one class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act): our common stock, $0.0001 par value per share. References herein to the terms the "Company," "we," "our," and "us" refer to Snowflake Inc.

The following description of our capital stock is a summary and does not purport to be complete. It is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the applicable provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws, which are each filed as exhibits to our Annual Report on Form 10-K, of which this Exhibit 4.2 is a part, and are incorporated by reference herein. We encourage you to read our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our amended and restated bylaws, and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (DGCL) for more information.

**General**

The authorized capital stock under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation consists of 2,500,000,000 shares of our common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and 200,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share. Our board of directors is authorized, without stockholder approval, except as otherwise required by the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, to issue additional shares of our capital stock.

**Common Stock**

***Voting Rights***

The common stock is entitled to one vote per share on any matter that is submitted to a vote of stockholders (including the election of directors). Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors unless required by applicable law at the time of such election.

***Dividends and Distributions***

Subject to preferences or rights that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of common stock will be entitled to receive any dividend or distribution of cash, stock, or other property as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors.

***Liquidation Rights***

On our liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up, the holders of common stock will be entitled to share on a pro rata basis in all of our remaining assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of any liabilities, liquidation preferences, and accrued or declared but unpaid dividends, if any, with respect to any outstanding preferred stock.

------

***Change of Control Transactions***

In the event of (a) the sale, lease, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets (Asset Transfer), (b) a consolidation, merger, or reorganization other than a consolidation, merger, or reorganization which results in our stockholders continuing to hold a majority of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or the surviving or acquiring entity in substantially the same proportions, or (c) the transfer, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, to a person or group of affiliated persons of securities of the Company if, after closing, the transferee person or group would hold more than 50% of the outstanding voting power of the Company (or the surviving or acquiring entity) (clauses (b) and (c), collectively, an Acquisition), in which cash or other property is, pursuant to the express terms of the Asset Transfer or Acquisition, to be distributed to the stockholders in respect of their shares of capital stock of the Company and upon the completion of the distributions required with respect to each series of preferred stock then outstanding, the remaining assets of the Company legally available for distribution to the stockholders shall be distributed on a pro rata basis to the holders of common stock. However, compensation to be paid or received by a holder of common stock in connection with an Asset Transfer or Acquisition under any employment, consulting, severance, or other compensatory arrangement will not constitute consideration or a "distribution to stockholders" in respect of the common stock.

***No Preemptive or Similar Rights***

Our common stock is not entitled to preemptive rights, and is not subject to conversion, redemption, or sinking fund provisions.

**Preferred Stock**

Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our board of directors may, without further action by our stockholders, designate and fix the powers, rights, preferences, privileges, and qualifications, limitations, and restrictions thereof, of up to an aggregate of 200,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and authorize their issuance. These powers, rights, preferences, and privileges could include dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences, and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change of control or other corporate action.

**Anti-Takeover Provisions**

***Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws***

Because our stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights, stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of our shares of common stock will be able to elect all of our directors. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws provide for stockholder actions at a duly called meeting of stockholders and that no action shall be taken by the stockholders by written consent. A special meeting of stockholders may be called only by the chair of our board of directors, our chief executive officer, or our board of directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by our board of directors. Our amended and restated bylaws establish advance notice procedures for proposed nominations of persons for election to our board of directors and other stockholder proposals to be brought before an annual meeting of our stockholders. Additionally, in accordance with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our board of directors is divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Subject to rights that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, members of our board of directors may only be removed for cause as specified in Section 141(k) of the DGCL. Subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law, any vacancies on our board of directors and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors, shall, unless our board of directors determines otherwise or as otherwise provided by applicable law, be filled only by a majority of our board of directors.

An amendment of certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation is required to be approved by a majority of our board of directors as well as by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2∕3% of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. Any amendment to our amended and restated bylaws is required to be approved by either a majority of our board of directors or by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2∕3% of

------

the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class.

The foregoing provisions make it more difficult for another party to obtain control of us by replacing our board of directors. Since our board of directors has the power to retain and discharge our officers, these provisions could also make it more difficult for existing stockholders or another party to effect a change in management. In addition, the authorization of undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise..

These provisions are intended to preserve our existing management structure, facilitate our continued product innovation and the risk-taking that it requires, permit us to continue to prioritize our long-term goals rather than short-term results, enhance the likelihood of continued stability in the composition of our board of directors and its policies, and discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened acquisition of us. These provisions are also designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal and to discourage certain tactics that may be used in proxy fights. However, such provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in our control or management. As a consequence, these provisions may also inhibit fluctuations in the market price of our stock that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts.

***Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law***

We are subject to Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any "business combination" with any "interested stockholder" (as each such term is defined therein) for a period of three years after the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, subject to certain exceptions. The application of Section 203 of the DGCL could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of us.

------

***Choice of Forum***

**Exchange Listing**

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "SNOW."

**Transfer Agent and Registrar**

The transfer agent of our common stock is the Computershare Trust Company, N.A. The transfer agent's address is 150 Royall Street, Canton, Massachusetts 02021.

**2020 Equity Incentive Plan**

**Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (RSU Award)**

As reflected by your RSU Award Grant Notice ("***Grant Notice***") Snowflake Inc. (the "***Company***") has granted you an RSU Award under its 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the "***Plan***") for the number of restricted stock units as indicated in your Grant Notice (the "***RSU Award***"). The terms of your RSU Award as specified in this Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement for your RSU Award, including the Appendices described below and the Grant Notice constitute your Agreement (the Grant Notice, Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, and Appendices, collectively, are referred to as the "***Agreement***"). Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement but defined in the Grant Notice or the Plan shall have the same definitions as in the Grant Notice or Plan, as applicable.

The general terms and conditions applicable to your RSU Award are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**1.Governing Plan Document**. Your RSU Award is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, including but not limited to the provisions in:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a)**Section 7 of the Plan regarding the impact of a Capitalization Adjustment, dissolution, liquidation, or Corporate Transaction on your RSU Award;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)**Section 9(d) of the Plan regarding the right (if any) of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate your Continuous Service notwithstanding the grant of the RSU Award; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(c)**Section 8 of the Plan regarding the tax consequences of your RSU Award.

Your RSU Award is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules, and regulations, which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. Without limitation to the foregoing, your RSU Award is subject to the terms of the Company's Leave of Absence Policy for Equity and the Company's Survivor Benefit Policy, both as amended from time to time. In the event of any conflict between the RSU Award Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**2.Grant of the RSU Award**. This RSU Award represents your right to be issued on a future date the number of shares of Common Stock that is equal to the Number of Restricted Stock Units indicated in the Grant Notice as modified to reflect any Capitalization Adjustment and subject to your satisfaction of the vesting conditions set forth therein (the "***Restricted Stock Units***"). Any additional Restricted Stock Units that become subject to the RSU Award pursuant to Capitalization Adjustments as set forth in the Plan, if any, shall be subject, in a manner determined by the Board, to the same forfeiture restrictions, restrictions on transferability, and time and manner of delivery as applicable to the other Restricted Stock Units covered by your RSU Award.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**3.Dividends**. You shall receive no benefit or adjustment to your RSU Award with respect to any cash dividend, stock dividend, or other distribution that does not result from a Capitalization Adjustment as provided in the Plan; provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply with respect to any shares of Common Stock that are delivered to you in connection with your RSU Award after such shares have been delivered to you.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**4.Withholding Obligations**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a)**Regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Affiliate to which you provide Continuous Service (the "***Service Recipient***") with respect to any income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (the "***Tax Liability***"), you hereby acknowledge and agree that the Tax Liability is your ultimate responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Company or the Service Recipient. You further acknowledge that the Company and the Service Recipient (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding any Tax Liability in connection with any aspect of this RSU Award, including, but not limited to, the grant or vesting of the RSU Award, the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to such vesting, the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock, and the payment of any dividends on the Common Stock; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSU Award to reduce or eliminate your Tax Liability or achieve a particular tax result. Further, if you are subject to Tax Liability in more than one jurisdiction, you acknowledge that the Company and/or the Service Recipient (or former service recipient, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax Liability in more than one jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)**In connection with any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you agree to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Service Recipient to satisfy all Tax Liability. As further provided in Section 8 of the Plan, you hereby authorize the Company and any applicable Service Recipient to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations or rights with regard to the Tax Liability by any of the following means or by a combination of such means: (i) causing you to pay any portion of the Tax Liability in cash or cash equivalent in a form acceptable to the Company; (ii) withholding from any compensation otherwise payable to you by the Company or the Service Recipient; (iii) withholding shares of Common Stock from the shares of Common Stock issued or otherwise issuable to you in connection with the Award; *provided*, however, that to the extent necessary to qualify for an exemption from application of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, if applicable, such share withholding procedure will be subject to the express prior approval of the Board or the Company's Compensation Committee; (iv) permitting or requiring you to enter into a "same day sale" commitment, if applicable, with a broker-dealer that is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (a "***FINRA Dealer***"), pursuant to this authorization and without further consent, whereby you irrevocably elect to sell a portion of the shares of Common Stock to be delivered in connection with your Restricted Stock Units to satisfy the Tax Liability and whereby the FINRA Dealer irrevocably commits to forward the proceeds necessary to satisfy the Tax Liability directly to the Company or the Service Recipient; and/or (v) any other method determined by the Company to be in compliance with Applicable Law. Furthermore, you agree to pay the Company or the Service Recipient any amount the Company or the Service Recipient may be required to withhold, collect, or pay as a result of your participation in the Plan or that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. In the event it is determined that the amount of the Tax Liability was greater than the amount withheld by the Company and/or the Service Recipient (as applicable), you agree to indemnify and hold the Company and/or the Service Recipient (as applicable) harmless from any failure by the Company or the applicable Service Recipient to withhold the proper amount.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(c)**The Company may withhold or account for your Tax Liability by considering statutory or other withholding rates applicable in your jurisdiction(s), including (i) maximum applicable rates in your jurisdiction(s), in which case you may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash (whether from applicable tax authorities or the Company) and you will have no entitlement to the equivalent amount in Common Stock or (ii) minimum or such other applicable rates in your jurisdiction(s), in which case you may be solely responsible for paying any additional Tax Liability to the applicable tax authorities or to the Company and/or the Service Recipient. If the Tax Liability withholding obligation is satisfied by withholding shares of Common Stock, for tax purposes, you are deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested portion of the RSU Award, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Common Stock is held back solely for the purpose of paying such Tax Liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(d)**You acknowledge that you may not participate in the Plan and the Company shall have no obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock until you have fully satisfied the Tax Liability, as determined by the Company. Unless any withholding obligation for the Tax Liability is satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver to you any Common Stock in respect of the RSU Award.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**5.Date of Issuance**.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a)**The issuance of shares in respect of the Restricted Stock Units is intended to comply with U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(a) and will be construed and administered in such a manner. Subject to the satisfaction of the Tax Liability withholding obligation, if any, in the event one or more Restricted Stock Units vests, the Company shall issue to you one (1) share of Common Stock for each vested Restricted Stock Unit. Each issuance date determined by this paragraph is referred to as an "***Original Issuance Date***."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)**If the Original Issuance Date falls on a date that is not a business day, delivery shall instead occur on the next following business day. In addition, if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(i)**the Original Issuance Date does not occur (1) during an "open window period" applicable to you, as determined by the Company in accordance with the Company's then-effective policy on trading in Company securities, or (2) on a date when you are otherwise permitted to sell shares of Common Stock on an established stock exchange or stock market (including but not limited to under a previously established written trading plan that meets the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act and was entered into in compliance with the Company's policies (a "***10b5-1 Arrangement***)), *and* 

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(ii)**either (1) a Tax Liability withholding obligation does not apply, or (2) the Company decides, prior to the Original Issuance Date, (A) not to satisfy the Tax Liability withholding obligation by withholding shares of Common Stock from the shares otherwise due, on the Original Issuance Date, to you under this Award, and (B) not to permit you to enter into a "same day sale" commitment with a broker-dealer (including but not limited to a commitment under a 10b5-1 Arrangement) and (C) not to permit you to pay your Tax Liability in cash, <u>then</u> the shares that would otherwise be issued to you on the Original Issuance Date will not be delivered on such Original Issuance Date and will instead be delivered on the first business day when you are not prohibited from selling shares of the Common Stock in the open public market, but in no event later than December 31 of the calendar year in which the Original Issuance Date occurs (that is, the last day of your taxable year in which the Original Issuance Date occurs), or, <u>if and only if</u> permitted in a manner that complies with U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), no later than the date that is the 15th day of the third calendar month of the applicable year following the year in which the shares of Common Stock under this Award are no longer subject to a "substantial risk of forfeiture" within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(d).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.Transferability**. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, your RSU Award is not transferable, except by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**8.No Liability for Taxes**. As a condition to accepting the RSU Award, you hereby (a) agree to not make any claim against the Company, or any of its Officers, Directors, Employees or Affiliates related to any Tax Liability arising from the RSU Award or any other compensation from the Company or the Service Recipient and (b) acknowledge that you were advised to consult with your own personal tax, financial and other legal advisors regarding the tax consequences of the RSU Award and have either done so or knowingly and voluntarily declined to do so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**9.Data Privacy**. In order for the Company to administer the RSU Award and your participation in the Plan, the Company must collect, process and transfer certain of your personal data, as further described in Appendix A to this Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement. Appendix A constitutes part of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**10.Change in Time Commitment**. You hereby acknowledge and agree that in the event your regular level of time commitment in the performance of your services for the Company and any Affiliate is reduced (including, without limitation, a change in status from a full-time Employee to a part-time Employee) after the Date of Grant set forth in your Grant Notice, the Company may in its sole discretion determine, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, to (i) make a corresponding reduction in the number of shares or, if applicable, cash amount subject to any portion of the RSU Award that is scheduled to vest or, if applicable, become payable after the date of such change in time commitment, and (ii) in lieu of or in combination with such a reduction, extend and prorate the vesting schedule applicable to the RSU Award, in each case without obtaining further consent from you. In the event of any such reduction or extension, you will have no right with respect to any portion of the RSU Award that is so reduced or extended. You further acknowledge that, subject to the Company's sole discretion and Applicable Law, any such reduction or extension will be irrevocable (*e.g*., in the event you have a subsequent change in status from a part-time Employee to a full-time Employee).

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**11.Severability**. If any part of this Agreement or the Plan is declared by any court or governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity will not invalidate any portion of this Agreement or the Plan not declared to be unlawful or invalid. Any Section of this Agreement (or part of such a Section) so declared to be unlawful or invalid will, if possible, be construed in a manner which will give effect to the terms of such Section or part of a Section to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**12.Other Documents**. You hereby acknowledge receipt of or the right to receive a document providing the information required by Rule 428(b)(1) promulgated under the Securities Act, which includes the Prospectus. In addition, you acknowledge receipt of the Company's Insider Trading Policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**15.Waiver**. You acknowledge that a waiver by the Company of any provision, or breach thereof, of this Agreement on any occasion shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of such provision on any other occasion or as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by you or any other Participant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**16.Imposition of Other Requirements**. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on your participation in the Plan, on the RSU Award and on any Common Stock acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require you to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

**Appendix A to Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement**

This Appendix A forms part of the Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Appendix A have the meanings set forth in the Plan and/or in the Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement.

**Data Privacy**. To participate in the Plan, you need to review the information provided in (a) through (f) below and, where applicable, consent to the processing of Personal Data (as defined below) by the Company and the third parties according to (g) below.

If you are based in the European Union ("***EU***"), the European Economic Area ("***EEA***"), Switzerland or the United Kingdom (collectively, "***EEA+***"), Snowflake Inc., with its registered office in the state of Delaware at 251 Little Falls Drive, Wilmington, Delaware, 19808, USA is the controller responsible for the processing of your Personal Data in connection with the Agreement and the Plan. The Company's representative in the EU is Snowflake Computing Netherlands B.V. with its primary office located at FOZ Building, Gustav Mahleraan 300-314, 1082 ME Amsterdam, Netherlands. The Company's representative in the United Kingdom is Snowflake Computing U.K. Limited with its primary office located at 14th Floor, The Bower 207 Old Street, London, United Kingdom, EC1V 9NR.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a)**<u>Data Collection and Usage</u>. The Company collects, processes and uses Personal Data about you, including your name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, passport or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all Restricted Stock Units over shares of Common Stock or any other entitlement to shares of Common Stock awarded, canceled, exercised, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding in your favor, which the Company receives from you or the Service Recipient ("***Personal Data***"). In order for you to participate in the Plan, the Company will collect Personal Data for purposes of allocating shares of Common Stock and implementing, administering and managing the Plan.

If you are based in the EEA+, the Company's legal basis for the processing of Personal Data is the necessity of the processing for the Company's performance of its obligations under the Agreement and the Company's legitimate interest of complying with statutory obligations to which it is subject.

If you are based in any other jurisdiction, the Company relies on your consent to the processing of Personal Data, as further described below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)** <u>Stock Plan Administration and Service Provides</u>. The Company may transfer Personal Data to Cooley LLP, Fidelity Stock Plan Services LLC, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., and/or Solium Plan Managers LLC (each, an "***administrator***"), each of which is an independent service provider based in the U.S., which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. Administrators may open an account for you to receive and, when applicable, trade shares of Common Stock. You may be asked to acknowledge, or agree to, separate terms and data processing practices with any administrator, with such acknowledgement or agreement being a condition to your ability to participate in the Plan.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(c)**<u>International Data Transfers</u>. Personal Data will be transferred from your country to the U.S., where the Company and its service providers are based. You understand and acknowledge that the U.S. has enacted data privacy laws that are different from those applicable in your country of residence. The EU Commission has determined that an appropriate level of protection can be achieved by implementing safeguards such as the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the EU Commission.

If you are based in the EEA+, Personal Data will be transferred from the EEA+ to the Company based on the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the EU Commission that are entered into by the Company and its Affiliates located in the EEA+. The onward transfer of your Personal Data by the Company to the administrators will be based on a data processing agreement or the EU Standard Contractual Clauses. You may request a copy of such appropriate safeguards at <u>privacy@snowflake.com</u>.

If you are based in any other jurisdiction, the Company relies on your consent to the transfer of Personal Data to the U.S., as further described below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(d)**<u>Data Retention</u>. The Company will use Personal Data only as long as necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the Plan or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including, without limitation, under tax and securities laws. When the Company no longer needs Personal Data for any of the above purposes, which will generally be seven (7) years after you participate in the Plan, the Company will cease to use Personal Data and remove it from its systems. If the Company keeps Personal Data longer, it would be to satisfy legal or regulatory obligations and the Company's legal basis would be relevant laws or regulations (if you are in the EEA+) and/or your consent (if you are outside the EEA+).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(e)**<u>Data Subject Rights</u>. You understand that you may have a number of rights under data privacy laws in your jurisdiction. Subject to the conditions set out in the Applicable Law and depending on where you are based, such rights may include the right to (i) request access to, or copies of, Personal Data processed by the Company, (ii) rectification of incorrect Personal Data, (iii) deletion of Personal Data, (iv) restrictions on the processing of Personal Data, (v) object to the processing of Personal Data for legitimate interests, (vi) portability of Personal Data, (vii) lodge complaints with competent authorities in your jurisdiction, and/or to (viii) receive a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of Personal Data. To receive clarification regarding these rights or to exercise these rights, you can contact <u>privacy@snowflake.com</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(f)**<u>Necessary Disclosure of Personal Data</u>. You understand that providing the Company with Personal Data is necessary for the performance of the Agreement and that your refusal to provide Personal Data or, where applicable, consent to process and transfer Personal Data would make it impossible for the Company to perform its contractual obligations and may affect your ability to participate in the Plan.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(g)**<u>Data Privacy Consent</u>. If you are located in a jurisdiction outside the EEA+, you hereby voluntarily and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Personal Data, as described above and in any other Award materials, by and among, as applicable, the Company, the Service Recipient and any Affiliate for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan. You understand that you may, at any time, refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing <u>privacy@snowflake.com</u>. If you do not consent or later seek to revoke your consent, your employment status or service with the Service Recipient will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing consent is that the Company would not be able to grant the Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards to you or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, you understand that refusing or withdrawing consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, you should contact <u>privacy@snowflake.com</u>.

**Appendix B to Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement**

***Terms and Conditions***

This Appendix B forms part of the Agreement and includes special terms and conditions that govern the RSU Award granted to you under the Plan if you reside and/or work in one of the jurisdictions listed below. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Appendix B have the meanings set forth in the Plan and/or in the Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement.

If you are a citizen or resident (or are considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which you are currently residing and/or working, or if you relocate to another country after the grant of the RSU Award, the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the special terms and conditions contained herein shall be applicable to you.

***Notifications***

This Appendix B may also include information regarding securities and certain other issues of which you should be aware with respect to participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of February 2026. Such laws are often complex and change frequently.

In addition, the information contained below is general in nature and may not apply to your particular situation and, as a result, the Company is not in a position to assure you of any particular result. Accordingly, you should seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in your country may apply to your individual situation.

Finally, if you are a citizen or resident (or are considered as such for local law purposes) of a country other than the country in which you are currently residing and/or working, or if you relocate to another country after the grant of the RSU Award, the information contained in this Appendix B may not be applicable to you in the same manner.

You may be required to report such accounts, assets or related transactions to the tax or other authorities in your country.

Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders you placed before you possessed inside information. Furthermore, you could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party, and (ii) "tipping" third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. You should keep in mind that third parties can include fellow employees and service providers. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable insider trading policy of the Company.

**<u>Argentina</u>**

**Securities Law Information.** Neither the Restricted Stock Units nor the underlying shares of Common Stock are publicly offered or listed on any stock exchange in Argentina and, as a result, have not been and will not be registered with the Argentine Securities Commission (Comisión Nacional de Valores). The offer is private and not subject to the supervision of any Argentine governmental authority. Neither the Agreement nor any other offering material related to the Restricted Stock Units or the underlying shares of Common Stock may be utilized in connection with any general offering to the public in Argentina. Argentine residents who acquire Restricted Stock Units or shares of Common Stock under the Plan do so under their own responsibility according to the terms of a private offering made from outside Argentina. Any Argentine resident who acquires shares of Common Stock shall not transfer such shares of Common Stock to any other person within six months of acquiring the shares of Common Stock, unless the transaction is conducted outside Argentina and the shares of Common Stock are not sold back to the Company. Accordingly, the transfer restriction should not apply if the shares of Common Stock are sold on the New York Stock Exchange.

**<u>Armenia</u>**

There are no country-specific provisions.

**<u>Australia</u>**

**Tax Information.** It is intended that Subdivision 83A-C of the *Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Cth)* applies to the RSU Award granted under the Plan, such that the RSU Award will be subject to deferred taxation.

**Securities Law Information.** This offer is being made under Division 1A, Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act 2001 (*Cth*).

**<u>Austria</u>**

There are no country-specific provisions.

**<u>Belgium</u>**

There are no country-specific provisions.

**Nature of Grant.** The following provision supplements the Nature of Grant provision of this Appendix B:

------

By accepting the RSU Award, you acknowledge and agree that (i) you are making an investment decision and (ii) the value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is not fixed and may increase or decrease over the vesting period without compensation to you.

**<u>Bulgaria</u>**

There are no country-specific provisions.

**<u>Canada</u>**

**Grant of the RSU Award.** This provision supplements Section 2 of the Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement:

The RSU Award will be settled by the issuance of shares of Common Stock and not by the issuance of cash (or by a combination of cash and shares), notwithstanding the discretion to settle an RSU Award in cash as described in Section 6(a)(vi) of the Plan.

**Termination of Continuous Service.** This provision replaces subsection (m) of the Nature of Grant provision of this Appendix B:

For purposes of the RSU Award, and except as explicitly and minimally required under applicable legislation, (i) your Continuous Service will be considered terminated and (ii) your right, if any, to earn, seek damages in lieu of, vest in or otherwise benefit from any portion of the RSU Award pursuant to this Agreement shall be measured by and immediately terminate, effective as of the date you are no longer actually providing services to the Company or one of its Affiliates, regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not the termination is later found to be invalid, unlawful or in breach of applicable laws in the jurisdiction where you are employed or providing services or the terms of your employment or service agreement, if any (the "Termination Date").

Except as explicitly and minimally required by applicable legislation, the Termination Date shall exclude and shall not be extended by any period during which notice, pay in lieu of notice or related payments or damages are provided or required to be provided under statute, contract, common/civil law or otherwise. For greater certainty, you will not earn or be entitled to any pro-rated vesting or other participation in the RSU Award or the Plan for that portion of time before the Termination Date, nor will you be entitled to any compensation for lost vesting or other participation. For further clarity, any reference to a termination of Continuous Service or a date of termination under this Agreement or the Plan will be interpreted to mean the Termination Date as defined herein.

As described above, if applicable legislation explicitly and minimally requires continued vesting or other participation during a statutory notice period, your right to vest in the RSU Award or otherwise benefit from or participate in the RSU Award or the Plan, if any, will terminate effective upon the expiry of the minimum statutory notice period. For clarity, you will not earn or be entitled to pro-rated vesting or other participation if any vesting date falls after the end of your minimum statutory notice period, nor shall you be entitled to any compensation for lost vesting or other participation.

Subject to applicable legislation, if the date you are no longer actually providing services cannot be reasonably determined under the terms of this Agreement or the Plan, the Board or, if delegated pursuant to Section 2 of the Plan, the Committee or a designated officer of the Company (or a designee of any of the foregoing) shall have the sole discretion to determine when you are no longer actively providing services for purposes of the RSU Award (including whether you may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence).

**Data Privacy.** This provision supplements the Data Privacy provision of Appendix A:

You hereby authorize the Company or any Affiliate, including the Service Recipient, and any agents or representatives to (i) discuss with and obtain all relevant information from all personnel, professional or non-professional, involved in the administration and operation of the Plan, and (ii) disclose and discuss any and all information relevant to the Plan with their advisors. You further authorize the Company or any Affiliate, including the Service Recipient, and any agents or representatives to record such information and to keep such information in your file. If you are resident in Quebec, you acknowledge and agree that your personal information, including sensitive personal information, may be transferred or disclosed outside of the province of Quebec, including to the United States. You acknowledge and authorize the Company and other parties involved in the administration of the Plan to use technology for profiling purposes and to make automated decisions that may have an impact on you or the administration of the Plan.

**Securities Law Information.** The sale or other disposal of the shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan may not take place within Canada. If the Common Stock is registered under the Securities Act, you will be permitted to sell shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, provided the resale of shares of Common Stock takes place outside Canada through the facilities of the exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are then listed. *You should consult your personal legal advisor prior to selling shares of Common Stock to ensure compliance with any applicable requirements.*

<u>The following provisions apply only if you reside in Quebec</u>:

**French Language Documents.** A French translation of this document and certain other documents related to the Restricted Stock Units will be made available to you as soon as reasonably practicable. You understand that, from time to time, additional information related to the Restricted Stock Units may be provided in English and such information may not be immediately available in French. However, upon request, the Company will provide a translation of such information into French as soon as reasonably practicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, and unless you indicate otherwise, the French translation of this document and the Plan will govern your participation in the Plan.

***Documents en Langue Française.*** *Une traduction française de ce document et de certains autres documents relatifs aux Restricted Stock Units sera mise à votre disposition dès que raisonnablement possible. Vous comprenez que, de temps à autre, des informations supplémentaires relatives aux Restricted Stock Units peuvent être fournies en anglais et que ces informations peuvent ne pas être immédiatement disponibles en français. Cependant, sur demande, la Société fournira une traduction de ces informations en français dès que raisonnablement possible. Nonobstant toute disposition contraire dans le Contrat, et sauf indication contraire de votre part, la traduction française de ce document et du Plan régira votre participation au Plan.*

**<u>Chile</u>**

**Securities Law Information.** The grant of the Restricted Stock Units constitutes a private offering of securities in Chile effective as of the Date of Grant. This offer of Restricted Stock Units is made subject to general ruling n° 336 of the Chilean Commission of the Financial Market ("**CMF**"). The offer refers to securities not registered at the securities registry or at the foreign securities registry of the CMF, and, therefore, such securities are not subject to oversight of the CMF. Given that the Restricted Stock Units are not registered in Chile, the Company is not required to provide public information about the

------

Restricted Stock Units or the shares of Common Stock in Chile. Unless the Restricted Stock Units and/or the shares of Common Stock are registered with the CMF, a public offering of such securities cannot be made in Chile.

**<u>Colombia</u>**

**Mandate Letter.** By electronically accepting your RSU Award, you understand that you are also agreeing to the terms set forth in the Mandate Letter, a copy of which is attached to this Appendix B. The Mandate Letter is required in order that a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock issuable at vesting can be withheld and immediately sold on your behalf to cover Tax-Related Items required to be withheld and the proceeds from such sale can be wired directly from the Company to the Service Recipient in Colombia for remittance to the tax authorities.

**Nature of Grant.** This provision supplements the Nature of Grant provision of this Appendix B:

Pursuant to Article 128 of the Colombian Labor Code, the RSU Award and related benefits do not constitute a component of your "salary" for any legal purpose. Therefore, the RSU Award and related benefits will not be included and/or considered for purposes of calculating any and all labor benefits, such as legal/fringe benefits, vacations, indemnities, payroll taxes, social insurance contributions and/or any other labor-related amount which may be payable.

**Securities Law Information.** The shares of Common Stock are not and will not be registered with the Colombian registry of publicly traded securities (*Registro Nacional de Valores y Emisores*) and therefore the shares of Common Stock may not be offered to the public in Colombia. Nothing in the Agreement should be construed as the making of a public offer of securities in Colombia. An offer of shares of Common Stock to employees will not be considered a public offer provided that it meets the conditions set forth in Article 6.1.1.1.1 in Decree 2555, 2010.

In addition, the Plan, the Agreement and any other document relating to the RSU Award may not be publicly distributed in Mexico. These materials are addressed to you only because of your existing relationship with the Company and its Affiliates and these materials should not be reproduced or copied in any form. The offer contained in these materials does not constitute a public offering of securities but rather constitutes a private placement of securities addressed specifically to individuals who are present employees of Snowflake Technologies Mexico S. de R. de C.V. made in accordance with the provisions of the Mexican Securities Market Law, and any rights under such offering shall not be assigned or transferred.

**<u>Netherlands</u>**

**<u>New Zealand</u>**

**Securities Law Information.** *<u>WARNING</u>: You are being offered Restricted Stock Units which, upon vesting in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the Plan, will enable you to acquire shares of Company Stock. The shares of Common Stock, if issued, will give you a stake in the ownership of the Company. You may receive a return if dividends are paid.*

 *If the Company runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, you will be paid only after all creditors and holders of preference shares (if any) have been paid. You may lose some or all of your investment, if any.*

*New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to help investors to make an informed decision. The usual rules do not apply to this offer because it is made under an employee share purchase scheme. As a result, you may not be given all the information usually required. You will also have fewer other legal protections for this investment.* 

*The shares of Common Stock are quoted on the New York Stock Exchange. This means that if you acquire shares of Common Stock under the Plan, you may be able to sell such shares on the New York Stock Exchange if there are interested buyers. If you sell your investment, the price you get may vary depending on factors such as the financial condition of the Company. You may receive less than the full amount that you paid for the investment, if anything. The price will depend on the demand for shares of Common Stock.*

*A copy of the Company's most recent financial statements (and, if applicable, a copy of the auditor's report on those financial statements) as well as information on risk factors impacting the Company's business that may affect the value of the shares of Common Stock, are included in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 and (when applicable) the Company's Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

**Grant of the RSU Award.** This provision supplements Section 2 of the Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement:

The offering of the Plan and the grant of the RSU Award may be subject to certain securities approval/confirmation requirements in the Philippines with the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission. If the Company has not obtained, or does not maintain, the necessary securities approval/confirmation prior to the vesting of the RSU Award, you will not vest in the RSU Award and no shares of Common Stock subject to the RSU Award will be issued.

**Securities Law Information.** The RSU Award is granted pursuant to the "Qualifying Person" exemption under section 273(1)(f) of the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289, 2006 Ed.) ("***SFA***") under which it is exempt from the prospectus and registration requirements and is not made with a view to the underlying shares of Common Stock being subsequently offered for sale to any other party. The Plan has not been lodged or registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. You should note that the Restricted Stock Units are subject to section 257 of the SFA and that you will not be able to make any offer or subsequent sale of the shares of Common Stock in Singapore, unless such offer or sale is made (i) after six (6) months from the Date of Grant or (ii) pursuant to the exemptions under Part XIII Division (1) Subdivision (4) (other than section 280) of the SFA, or pursuant to, and in accordance with the conditions of, any other applicable provisions of the SFA.

**<u>Spain</u>**

**Nature of Grant.** This provision supplements the Nature of Grant provision of this Appendix B:

By accepting the RSU Award, you consent to participation in the Plan and acknowledge that you have received a copy of the Plan.

You understand that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion decided to grant RSU Awards under the Plan to individuals who may be employees or service providers of the Company or one of its Affiliates throughout the world. The decision is limited and entered into based upon the express assumption and condition that (i) any RSU Award will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any Affiliate, including the Service Recipient, on an ongoing basis, other than as expressly set forth in the Agreement; (ii) the RSU Award and any underlying shares of Common Stock shall not become part of any employment or other service contract (whether with the Company or any Affiliate, including the Service Recipient) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purpose (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever; and (iii) except as provided for in the Nature of Grant provision in this Appendix B, the RSU Award shall cease vesting upon your termination of Continuous Service, as detailed below. Furthermore, you understand and freely accept that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from the RSU Award, which is gratuitous and discretionary, since the future value of the RSU Award and the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown, indeterminable, and unpredictable.

Further, your participation in the Plan is expressly conditioned on your continued and active rendering of service, such that if your Continuous Service terminates for any reason, your participation in the Plan will cease immediately. This will be the case, for example, even if (a) you are considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause (*i.e.*, subject to a "*despido improcedente*"); (b) you are dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (c) your Continuous Service ceases due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (d) your Continuous Service ceases due to a unilateral breach of contract by the Company or the Service Recipient; or (e) your Continuous Service terminates for any other reason whatsoever. Consequently, upon termination of your Continuous Service for any of the above reasons, you automatically lose any right to participate in the Plan on the date of your termination of Continuous Service, as described in the Plan and the Agreement.

**Securities Law Information.** The grant of the Restricted Stock Units and the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units are considered a private placement outside the scope of Spanish laws on public offerings and issuances of securities. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement have been registered with the *Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores* and do not constitute a public offering prospectus.

**<u>Sweden</u>**

**Authorization to Withhold.** This provision supplements Section 4 ("Withholding Obligations") of the Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement:

------

Without limiting the Company's and the Service Recipient's authority to satisfy their withholding obligations for Tax Liability as set forth in Section 4 of the Agreement, by accepting the RSU Award, you authorize the Company to withhold shares of Common Stock or to sell shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to you upon vesting/settlement to satisfy Tax Liability, regardless of whether the Company and/or the Service Recipient have an obligation to withhold such Tax Liability.

**<u>Switzerland</u>**

**Securities Law Information.** Neither this document nor any other materials relating to the RSU Award (i) constitute a prospectus according to articles 35 et seq. of the Swiss Federal Act on Financial Services ("***FinSA***"), (ii) may be publicly distributed nor otherwise made publicly available in Switzerland to any person other than an employee of the Company or a service provider of the Service Recipient or (iii) has been or will be filed with, approved or supervised by any Swiss reviewing body according to article 51 FinSA or any Swiss regulatory authority, including the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority ("***FINMA***").

Shares of Common Stock are currently traded on the New York Stock Exchange in the United States under the ticker symbol "SNOW" and shares of Common Stock may be sold on this exchange, which is located outside Turkey.

**<u>United Kingdom</u>**

**Grant of the RSU Award.** This provision supplements Section 2 of the Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement:

------

The RSU Award will be settled by the issuance of shares of Common Stock and not by the issuance of cash (or by a combination of cash and shares), notwithstanding the discretion to settle an RSU Award in cash as described in Section 6(a)(vi) of the Plan.

**Responsibility for Taxes.** This provision supplements Section 4 ("Withholding Obligations") of the Global Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Without limitation to Section 4 of the Agreement, you agree that you are liable for all the Tax Liability and you hereby covenant to pay all such Tax Liability, as and when requested by the Company and/or the Service Recipient or by HM Revenue & Customs ("***HMRC***") (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). You also agree to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and/or the Service Recipient against any Tax Liability that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority) on your behalf. For the purposes of this Agreement, Tax Liability includes (without limitation) employment income tax and employee National Insurance contributions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(b)**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a condition of the vesting of, or the receipt of any benefit pursuant to, the Restricted Stock Units, you agree to accept any liability for secondary Class 1 National Insurance contributions which may be payable by the Company and/or the Service Recipient in connection with the Restricted Stock Units and any event giving rise to a Tax Liability (the "***Employer NICs***"). Without prejudice to the foregoing, by accepting the RSU Award, you agree to enter into a joint election with the Company or the Service Recipient, the form of such joint election being formally approved by HMRC (the "***NIC Joint Election***"), a copy of which is either attached to this Appendix B or provided to you under separate cover and any other required consent or election. You further agree to execute such other joint elections as may be required between you and any successor to the Company and/or the Service Recipient. You further agree that the Company and/or the Service Recipient may collect the Employer NICs from you by any of the means set forth in Section 4 of the Agreement.

If you do not enter into the NIC Joint Election prior to the vesting of the RSU Award or any other event giving rise to the Tax Liability, you will not be entitled to vest in the RSU Award and receive shares of Common Stock (or receive any benefit in connection with the RSU Award) unless and until you enter into the NIC Joint Election, and no shares of Common Stock or other benefit will be issued to you under the Plan, without any liability to the Company or the Service Recipient.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(c)**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a condition of the vesting of, or the receipt of any benefit pursuant to, the RSU Award, you agree to sign, promptly, all documents required by the Company to effect the terms of the foregoing provisions.

"***SSCBA***" means the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992.

"***Taxable Event***" means any event giving rise to Relevant Employment Income.

2.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This Election relates to the Employer's secondary Class 1 National Insurance Contributions (the "***Employer's Liability***") which may arise in respect of Relevant Employment Income in respect of the RSUs pursuant to section 4(4)(a) and/or paragraph 3B(1A) of Schedule 1 of the SSCBA.

## Exhibit 19.1

![image_0.jpg](image_0.jpg)

**INSIDER TRADING POLICY** 

**1. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;INTRODUCTION** 

During the course of your relationship with Snowflake Inc. ("***Snowflake***") or one of its affiliated entities, you will learn important, nonpublic information about Snowflake or other publicly traded companies that have relationships with Snowflake. Using this nonpublic information to buy or sell stock, or giving the information to others, violates Snowflake policy and could constitute illegal insider trading. This policy (this "***Policy***") sets forth rules and procedures that address the risks of insider trading.

If you have any questions about whether something may violate this Policy or the law, please contact Snowflake's General Counsel before doing it.

**<u>Policy Statements</u>** 

***No Insider Trading***

**Do not trade while you are aware of material nonpublic information**. If you are aware of material nonpublic information about Snowflake, you may not buy, sell, or otherwise transfer any Snowflake securities, either directly or indirectly, unless the transaction falls under one of the few limited exceptions under this Policy. You are also prohibited from trading in the securities of any other publicly traded company while aware of material nonpublic information about that company. There is no "low volume exception"; trading even a small number of securities counts.

**Do not "tip."** You may not, directly or indirectly, disclose any material nonpublic information about Snowflake to others without either Snowflake's permission or in accordance with Snowflake's Corporate Disclosure Policy. You may not make recommendations or express opinions about Snowflake securities when you are aware of material nonpublic information affecting Snowflake. Giving material nonpublic information to someone else (also known as a "***tip***") who uses it for personal gain (a "***tippee***") is illegal and is a violation of this Policy; you can be liable for transactions of a tippee, or even a tippee's tippee. There is no "low volume exception;" trading by a tippee of even a small number of securities counts.

In addition, if you learn of or are otherwise aware of material nonpublic information about another publicly traded company with which Snowflake does business, including a customer, vendor, partner or collaborator of Snowflake, you may not provide a tip with respect to that company's securities until the information becomes public or is no longer material.

The prohibition against insider trading is absolute. It applies even if the decision to trade is not based on material nonpublic information. It also applies to transactions that may be necessary or justifiable for independent reasons (such as the need to raise money for an emergency expenditure). All that matters is whether you are aware of any material nonpublic information relating to Snowflake at the time of the transaction. The U.S. federal securities laws do not recognize any mitigating circumstances to insider trading. You may need to forgo a planned transaction or wait to trade even if you had planned the transaction before learning of any material nonpublic information. Even if you believe you will suffer a loss or lose out on profit by waiting to trade, you must wait.

------

**2. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHO IS COVERED BY THIS POLICY?** 

This Policy applies to all directors, officers, employees, and contractors of Snowflake and its subsidiaries ("**Insiders**")<sup>1</sup>. If you are an Insider, this Policy also applies to any individuals sharing the same household with you, individuals who are your economic dependents (e.g., a child away at college), any individuals (including immediate family members<sup>2</sup> who do not share the same household with you) whose transactions in securities you influence, direct or control, and any entities whose transactions in securities you or any of the individuals described above controls. The foregoing persons who are deemed subject to this Policy are referred to in this Policy as "**Related Persons.**" You are responsible for making sure that your Related Persons comply with this Policy. To avoid even the appearance of insider trading, you may never recommend to another person that they buy, hold, or sell Snowflake securities.

**3.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**WHAT TRANSACTIONS ARE SUBJECT TO THIS POLICY?** 

This Policy applies to all transactions in Snowflake securities, including derivative securities that are not issued by Snowflake, such as exchange-traded put or call options or swaps relating to Snowflake's securities and similar securities of other public traded companies, as applicable. Accordingly, for purposes of this Policy, the terms "***trade***," "***trading***" and "***transactions***" include not only purchases and sales of stock in the public market but also any other purchases, sales, transfers or other acquisitions or dispositions of common or preferred equity, options, warrants and other securities (including debt securities) and other arrangements or transactions that affect economic exposure to changes in the prices of these securities. This includes bona fide gifts involving Snowflake's common stock or transfers for estate planning or tax planning purposes; *provided, however*, that this Policy does not apply to transfers of Snowflake securities that effect only a change in the form of ownership without involving a change in beneficial ownership or pecuniary interest (such as certain estate planning transfers that do not involve any changes in beneficial ownership), in each case that have been pre-approved by Snowflake's General Counsel (or his or her designee).

Please also be aware that transfers of Snowflake shares out of your Snowflake-sponsored Fidelity account are only allowed in limited circumstances and subject to pre-approval. Please refer to Snowflake's Share Transfer Guidelines.

Finally, if you participate in prediction markets – platforms that allow people to bet on real-world events like elections, sports, award shows, economic trends, and corporate announcements and developments – you may not bet on anything related to Snowflake, regardless of whether you are in possession of material nonpublic information, or use confidential information you have learned through your role at Snowflake to make non-Snowflake bets. Please see our Global Code of Conduct and Ethics for more information about prediction market betting.

**4. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WHAT IS MATERIAL NONPUBLIC INFORMATION?** 

It is not always easy to figure out whether you possess material nonpublic information, so always err on the side of caution. If the information makes you want to trade, it would probably have the same effect on others and, thus, constitute material nonpublic information.

<sup>1</sup> A non-management member of the Board of Directors (or local equivalent) of a Snowflake subsidiary that is not wholly owned by Snowflake will not be considered an "Insider" for purposes of this Policy so long as such person does not have any other relationship with Snowflake or one of its subsidiaries that would qualify such person as an Insider.

<sup>2</sup> For purposes of this Policy, your "immediate family members" mean your child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, and/or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***MATERIAL***

If sharing the information might affect the market price of a company's stock or be important to its investors, it is material. Both positive and negative information can be material.

There is no bright-line standard for assessing materiality; rather, materiality is based on an assessment of all of the facts and circumstances, and is often evaluated by relevant enforcement authorities with the benefit of hindsight. Depending on the specific details, the following items may be considered material nonpublic information until publicly disclosed within the meaning of this Policy. There may be other types of information that would qualify as material information as well. Use this list merely as a non-exhaustive guide:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● financial results or forecasts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● major new products, features, or processes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● the status of our progress toward achieving significant business or financial goals;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● acquisitions or dispositions of assets, divisions, or companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● pending public or private sales of debt or equity securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● stock splits, dividends, or changes in dividend policy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● the establishment of a repurchase program for Snowflake's securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● significant cybersecurity events;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● major contract awards or cancellations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● key management or control changes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● significant employee layoffs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● a disruption in the company's operations or breach or unauthorized access of its property or assets, including its facilities and information technology infrastructure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● possible tender offers or proxy fights;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● significant accounting restatements or write-offs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Significant litigation or settlements, including positive or negative developments about litigation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● impending bankruptcy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● gain or loss of a significant license agreement, procurement agreement, or other contracts with customers or suppliers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● the existence of a special blackout period;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● pricing changes or discount policies; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● changes to, or the gain or loss of, corporate partner relationships.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.2. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***NONPUBLIC***

Any information that is not public is nonpublic. Figuring out whether information is public may seem easy, but, for purposes of insider trading, it can actually be complex.

For information to be considered "public," two conditions must be met. First, the information must have been widely shared in a manner designed to reach investors, such as through an SEC filing or a press release. The fact that information has been shared with a few members of the public does not mean that it is public.

------

Second, investors must have time to absorb the information. Even after information has been publicly shared, you must wait until the opening of trading on the second full trading day after public disclosure before you can treat it as public. For example, if we announce material information through a press release after trading ends on Wednesday, the material information will not be considered public for purposes of insider trading until the opening of trading on Friday.

**5. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TRADING BLACKOUT PERIODS** 

Trading when you are aware of material nonpublic information affecting Snowflake is always prohibited. However, there are certain times when you are more likely to know material nonpublic information. As a result, and to minimize even the appearance of insider trading among our Insiders, Snowflake has established blackout periods during which Insiders and their Related Persons—regardless of whether they possess material nonpublic information or not—may not buy, sell, gift or otherwise trade in Snowflake securities. There are two types of blackout periods: Quarterly Blackout Periods and Special Blackout Periods.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.1. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***Quarterly Blackout Periods***

Unless there is an exception in this Policy, Insiders and their Related Persons may not trade Snowflake securities during a "***Quarterly Blackout Period***." Quarterly Blackout Periods start and end as follows:

- **Start**: &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the end of trading on the 15<sup>th</sup> calendar day of the third calendar month of each fiscal quarter (i.e., April 15<sup>th</sup>, July 15<sup>th</sup>, October 15<sup>th</sup>, and January 15<sup>th</sup>) (or if such day is not a trading day, the end of trading on the immediately preceding trading day).

- **End**: &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;after one full trading day has elapsed since the public release of Snowflake's annual or quarterly financial results (meaning that the Quarterly Blackout Period ends as of the opening of trading on the second full trading day).

Please note that a Quarterly Blackout Period may commence early or may be extended if, in the judgment of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, or General Counsel, there exists undisclosed information that would make trades by persons subject to the Quarterly Blackout Period inappropriate. It is important to note that the fact that a Quarterly Blackout Period has commenced early or has been extended should be considered material nonpublic information that should not be communicated to any other person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***Special Blackout Periods***

From time to time, there may be other types of material nonpublic information about Snowflake (such as mergers and acquisitions or significant product developments) that pose a heightened insider trading risk. To help address such risk, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, or General Counsel may impose a Special Blackout Period during which certain people who are involved in the transaction or event may not trade in Snowflake securities. If Snowflake imposes a Special Blackout Period, the Legal department will notify the people who are affected. The fact that a Special Blackout Period is in effect is itself material nonpublic information that should not be communicated to any other person.

------

**6. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;OTHER TRADING RESTRICTIONS** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.1. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***No Speculative or Short-Term Trading***

Because there is a heightened legal risk and the appearance of improper or inappropriate conduct if the persons subject to this Policy engage in certain types of transactions, you may not, at any time and regardless of whether you are aware of any material nonpublic information relating to Snowflake, engage or participate in short sales, transactions in put or call options (e.g., covered calls), hedging transactions (designed to offset or "hedge," including through prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds, among others), or any margin accounts (where securities are held as collateral for a margin loan that may be sold without your consent if you fail to meet a margin call), pledges (including as collateral for a loan), or other inherently speculative transactions with respect to any Snowflake securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.2. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***Prohibition of Trading During Pension Plan Blackouts***

No director or executive officer (as defined in Rule 3b-7 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of Snowflake may, directly or indirectly, purchase, sell or otherwise transfer any equity security of Snowflake (other than an exempt security) during any "blackout period'' (as defined in Regulation BTR under the Exchange Act (as defined below)) if the director or executive officer acquires or previously acquired such equity security in connection with his or her service or employment as a director or executive officer. This prohibition does not apply to any transactions that are specifically exempted, including but not limited to: purchases or sales of Snowflake's securities made pursuant to, and in compliance with, a pre-existing written plan approved by Snowflake and entered into with your stockbroker that meets the conditions set out under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "***Exchange Act***"), and Snowflake's Policy Regarding Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans, which can be found on Snowflake's intranet (an "***Approved Trading Plan***"); compensatory grants or awards of equity securities pursuant to a plan that, by its terms, permits executive officers and directors to receive automatic grants or awards and specifies the terms of the grants and awards; or acquisitions or dispositions of equity securities involving a bona fide gift or by will or the laws of descent or pursuant to a domestic relations order. Snowflake will notify each director and executive officer of any blackout periods in accordance with the provisions of Regulation BTR. Because Regulation BTR is very complex, no director or executive officer of Snowflake should engage in any transactions in Snowflake's securities, even if believed to be exempt from Regulation BTR, without first consulting with Snowflake's General Counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.3. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***Pre-Clearance of Transactions by Designated Insiders***

Designated Insiders are those Insiders who are likely to obtain material nonpublic information outside of Quarterly Blackout Periods on a regular basis. As a result, Designated Insiders must get pre-clearance from Snowflake's General Counsel (or his or her designee) before buying, selling, or otherwise transferring Snowflake securities, including any purchase or sale in the open market, loan, or other transfer of beneficial ownership. This includes even proposed bona fide gifts involving Snowflake common stock or transfers for tax planning purposes in which the beneficial ownership and pecuniary interest in the transferred securities do not change. "***Designated Insiders***" are directors, executive officers and any other individuals added to the designated insider list maintained by the Snowflake Legal Team.

------

**Pre-clearance is always required for Designated Insiders, even when a blackout period is not in effect.** Designated Insiders will be personally notified of this requirement. Section 16 reporting persons are subject to additional preclearance requirements as described in Section 6.4 below. This requirement does not apply to transactions that are specifically exempted from this Policy, including purchases or sales of Snowflake securities made pursuant to an Approved Trading Plan.

To request pre-clearance, Designated Insiders who are Snowflake employees or contractors with system access must submit a pre-clearance request to Snowflake's General Counsel (or his or her designee) using the electronic process through Snowflake's employee portal, The Lift. Directors and contractors who do not have access to The Lift can submit preclearance requests by filling out the preclearance request form and emailing it to preclearance@snowflake.com. Further information on how to complete the process has been, and will continue to be, provided by the Legal department.

A completed pre-clearance request must be submitted to Snowflake's General Counsel (or his or her designee) at least full two business days before the proposed transaction date. Snowflake's General Counsel (or his or her designee) will decide whether the transaction is approved and, if so, will notify the requestor.

As a general rule, if a pre-cleared transaction is not completed within five trading days after the date of approval, it will require new pre-clearance; however, the General Counsel (or his or her designee) may specify a shorter trading period in his or her sole discretion. If a pre-clearance request is not approved, or if the Designated Insider becomes aware of any material nonpublic information after the pre-clearance request is approved but prior to executing the transaction, the Designated Insider may not execute the transaction.

If you have questions about the pre-clearance process, please email preclearance@snowflake.com.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.4. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***Section 16 Reporting Persons – Short-Swing Trading, Control Stock, and Section 16 Reports***

Snowflake officers and directors subject to the reporting obligations under Section 16 of the Exchange Act are subject to additional restrictions and obligations.

If you are a Section 16 reporting person, please review Snowflake's Section 16 Compliance Program. Among other things, Section 16 reporting persons may not engage in short-swing trading (within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act), are subject to restrictions on sales by control persons (Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), and must provide Snowflake's General Counsel (or his or her designee) advance notice of <u>all</u> Snowflake securities transactions (even if pre-clearance is not required) to allow Snowflake to help you meet your Section 16 public reporting requirements (Forms 3, 4, and 5) as described in Snowflake's Section 16 Compliance Program.

Section 16 reporting persons must pre-clear not only their own transactions in Snowflake securities under Section 6.3 above, but also the transactions of any other person or entity whose transactions are covered by their Section 16 filings (e.g., Forms 4) or are influenced or directed by them. This typically includes the Section 16 reporting person's spouse, children, any immediate family members who share the same household, and any entities that they control. Please reach out to the Snowflake Legal Team for any questions.

**7.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**EXCEPTIONS** 

The trading restrictions of this Policy do not apply to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● ***Cash Option Exercises***. Exercising stock options granted under Snowflake's stock-option plans for cash. However, trading restrictions <u>do</u> apply to (i) any sale of stock as part of a broker-assisted cashless exercise, whether or not for the purpose of generating the cash needed to pay the exercise price or pay taxes, and (ii) the sale of any shares issued upon exercise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● ***Tax Withholding Transactions****.* The surrender of shares directly to Snowflake to satisfy tax withholding obligations as a result of the issuance of shares upon vesting or exercise of restricted stock units ("***RSUs***"), options, or other equity awards granted under Snowflake's equity compensation plans. In addition, Snowflake may require that shares be sold in an open market transaction on your behalf to cover tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of RSUs, known as a "sell-to-cover" transaction. This Policy does not apply to sell-to-cover transactions that Snowflake facilitates on your behalf in accordance with Snowflake's equity compensation plans. Otherwise, trading restrictions <u>do</u> apply to your sale of any shares issued upon exercise or vesting of any such equity awards, whether or not for the purpose of generating the cash needed to pay the exercise price or pay taxes that are not withheld by Snowflake.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● ***ESPP Enrollment and Payroll Deductions***. Your decision to enroll in, and any subsequent automatic payroll deductions used to make periodic purchases of Snowflake stock as part of, the Snowflake Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("***ESPP***"), as well as your decision to reduce your contribution election under the ESPP following your enrollment. However, selling any Snowflake stock acquired under the ESPP is subject to the trading restrictions set forth in this Policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● ***10b5-1 Automatic Trading Programs****.* Transactions under an Approved Trading Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● ***401(k) Plan***. Automatic investments of 401(k) plan contributions in a stock fund that includes Snowflake securities in accordance with the terms of Snowflake's 401(k) plan. However, any changes in your investment election regarding a stock fund that includes Snowflake securities are subject to the trading restrictions set forth in this Policy, unless (i) neither you nor any of your Related Persons have any control or influence over the securities held by such stock fund, and (ii) Snowflake common stock does not constitute more than 2% of the total holdings of such stock fund.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● ***Certain Transfers***. Transfers of Snowflake securities by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or by court order.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● ***Mutual Funds & ETFs***. You may trade in mutual funds, exchange traded funds, index funds, or similar investment vehicles providing for diversification of holdings that hold Snowflake common stock at any time, so long as neither you nor any of your Related Persons have any control or influence over the securities held by such investment vehicles.

**8. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;POLICY'S DURATION** 

Except for the pre-clearance requirements, this Policy applies to you even after your relationship with Snowflake has ended. If you possess material nonpublic information when your relationship with Snowflake ends, you may not trade in Snowflake's stock or the stock of other companies to which such information relates until the material nonpublic information is publicly known or is no longer material.

------

Further, if you leave Snowflake during a Quarterly Blackout Period, then you may not trade Snowflake's securities until such Quarterly Blackout Period has ended.

**9. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;INSIDER RESPONSIBILITY** 

Insiders have ethical and legal obligations to maintain the confidentiality of information about Snowflake and to not engage in transactions in Snowflake's securities or the securities of other companies while aware of material nonpublic information. Each Insider is responsible for making sure that he or she complies with this Policy, and that any Related Persons, as discussed under the heading "**Who is Covered by this Policy?**" above, also comply with this Policy. In all cases, the responsibility for determining whether an Insider or any of such Insider's Related Persons are aware of material nonpublic information rests with that Insider, and any action on the part of Snowflake or any employee or director of Snowflake pursuant to this Policy (or otherwise) does not in any way constitute legal advice or insulate an Insider from liability under applicable securities laws. You could be subject to severe legal penalties, as well as disciplinary action by Snowflake, for any conduct prohibited by this Policy or applicable securities laws. See "**Penalties**" below.

**10. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;PENALTIES** 

Anyone who engages in insider trading or otherwise violates this Policy may be subject to both civil liability and criminal penalties. Violators also risk disciplinary action by Snowflake, including termination. Anyone who has questions about this Policy should contact their own attorney or Snowflake's General Counsel.

**11. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;FAQS** 

Please read the Insider Trading Policy Frequently Asked Questions available on The Lift.

**12.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Company Transactions**

Snowflake's policy is to comply with applicable insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and listing standards with respect to transactions in its own securities.

**13.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Amendments**

Snowflake reserves the right to amend this Policy at any time and for any reason, including to reflect changes in insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and applicable listing standards.

**14.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**CERTIFICATION** 

If you are requested to do so, please sign the Insider Trading Policy Certification after you have read this Policy. Snowflake may require you to recertify your compliance with this Policy on a periodic basis.
