Shares of Class C common stock, restricted stock units, Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs") and Warrants outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, are considered potentially dilutive of the shares of Class A common stock and are included in the computation of diluted loss per share, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, 16.8 million Warrants and 0.5 million vested SARs were excluded from the computation of net loss per share as their impact was anti-dilutive. Additionally, 1.3 million SARs were excluded as they are contingently issuable upon the achievement of certain performance conditions, which were not achieved as of March 31, 2026. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, 16.8 million Warrants were excluded from the computation of net loss per share as their impact was anti-dilutive. Additionally, 2.1 million SARs were excluded as they are contingently issuable upon the achievement of certain performance conditions, which were not achieved as of March 31, 2025. See Note 10, Stock-Based Compensation, for additional details.
