(7) Earn-out Liabilities

Upon the closing of the Business Combination on March 2, 2022, SNII, Supernova Partners II LLC (the “Sponsor”) and SNII’s directors and officers (collectively the “Sponsor Holders”) subjected certain shares of Common Stock (the “Sponsor Vesting Shares”) to forfeiture for a five-year period following the closing of the Business Combination, with vesting occurring only if thresholds related to the weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock were met as described below (the “Earn-out Triggering Events”). Any Sponsor Vesting Shares that were not vested by the fifth anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination were to be forfeited.

Sponsor Vesting Shares – Vesting Provisions:

(i)2,479,000 shares of Common Stock held by the Sponsor Holders became unvested and subject to forfeiture as of the closing of the Business Combination and will only vest if, during the five year period following the closing of the Business Combination, the volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 for any twenty trading days within a period of thirty consecutive trading days (such shares, the “Promote Sponsor Vesting Shares”), and

(ii)580,273 shares of Common Stock held by the Sponsor Holders became unvested and subject to forfeiture as of the closing of the Business Combination and will only vest if, during the five year period following the closing of the Business Combination, the volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock equals or exceeds $15.00 for any twenty trading days within a period of thirty consecutive trading days (such shares, the “Sponsor Redemption-Based Vesting Shares,” and, collectively with the Promote Sponsor Vesting Shares, the “Sponsor Vesting Shares”).

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Earn-out Triggering Events for each of the Sponsor Redemption-Based Vesting Shares and the Promote Sponsor Vesting Shares were satisfied, and the underlying earn-out liabilities were adjusted to fair value using the closing market price of the Company’s Common Stock on their respective vesting dates. The earn-out liability for the Sponsor Redemption-Based Vesting Shares as of their August 14, 2025 vesting date was $10.4 million. The earn-out liability for the Promote Sponsor Vesting Shares as of their February 6, 2025 vesting date was $32.9 million. The earn-out liabilities for the Sponsor Redemption-Based Vesting Shares and the Promote Sponsor Vesting Shares were recorded to additional paid-in capital on their respective vesting dates. As of December 31, 2025, all of the Sponsor Vesting Shares were vested and the earn-out liabilities balance was zero.

Prior to vesting, the Earn-out liabilities were adjusted to fair value for each reporting period using the Monte Carlo simulation model. The change in the fair value of the Earn-out liabilities included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was a gain of $8.8 million.
