During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recorded non-cash increases to our property and equipment related to vendor financing arrangements of $36.1 million and $32.1 million, respectively, which exclude related value-added taxes (VAT) of $6.6 million and $4.8 million, respectively, that were also financed under these arrangements.

If, among other factors, the adverse impacts of economic, competitive, regulatory or other factors were to cause our results of operations or cash flows to be worse than anticipated, we could conclude in future periods that impairment charges are required in order to reduce the carrying values of our goodwill and, to a lesser extent, other long-lived assets. Any such impairment charges could be significant.
