Basis of Presentation
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and include our accounts and the accounts of our subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Our interim financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent period or for the year ending December 31, 2025.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the 2024 Form 10-K).
Prior Period Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These amounts were not material to any period presented.
Use of Estimates
GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions affecting amounts reported in our financial statements. We periodically evaluate our estimates and adjust prospectively, if necessary. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable; however, actual results may differ.
Segments
We report our operating results through two reportable segments: Applications and Commerce (A&C) and Core Platform (Core), as further discussed in Note 16.

Assets Recognized from Contract Costs
Costs to fulfill our customer contracts primarily relate to fees paid to various registries at the inception of a domain registration or renewal. We capitalize and recognize these prepaid domain name registry fees as cost of revenue consistent with the pattern of transfer of the product to which the asset relates. Such expense was $214.9 million and $200.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and was $624.9 million and $589.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
We have no other material capitalized contract costs.
Restructuring and Other
Restructuring and other primarily represents charges related to restructuring activities undertaken to reduce future operating expenses and improve cash flows through reductions in force. See Note 13 for further discussion.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. The framework for measuring fair value provides a three-tier hierarchy prioritizing inputs to valuation techniques used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1— Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
Level 2— Inputs, other than quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets, which are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3— Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data requiring the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
We hold certain assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These include time deposits and notice deposits, which we classify within Level 1 because we use quoted market prices to determine their fair value. Level 2 assets and liabilities include commercial paper and derivative financial instruments associated with hedging activity, as further discussed in Note 10. Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value on the contract date and are subsequently remeasured each reporting period using inputs such as spot rates, discount rates and forward rates. There are no active markets for the commercial paper or hedge contracts themselves; however, the inputs used to calculate the fair value of the instruments are tied to active markets.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This guidance requires additional disclosures, primarily focused on income taxes paid and the rate reconciliation table, and is effective for our 2025 fiscal year. Adoption of this guidance will result in additional disclosures, but it will not impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance requiring public business entities to disaggregate disclosure of income statement expenses. This guidance does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories within the footnotes to the financial statements. This update is effective for our 2027 fiscal year and interim periods in fiscal year 2028, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating our timing for adoption and the impact on our future disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued guidance that modernizes the recognition and disclosure framework for internal-use software costs, removing the previous “development stage” model and introducing a more judgment-based approach. Under the new guidance, capitalization begins when management authorizes and commits to funding a project and it is probable the project will be completed and used as intended. This update is effective for our 2028 fiscal year and interim periods within, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating our timing for adoption and the impact on our financial statements.

Equity [Abstract]  
Stockholders' Equity Stockholders' Equity
Share Repurchases
Our board of directors (board) previously authorized the repurchase of up to $4,000.0 million of our Class A common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we made upfront payments totaling $767.4 million, which was equivalent to the amount remaining under this board authorization, to enter into two accelerated share repurchase agreements (ASRs) to repurchase shares of our Class A common stock. The ASRs were forward contracts indexed to our Class A common stock and met all of the applicable criteria for equity classification; therefore, the ASRs were not accounted for as derivative instruments. During April 2025, the ASRs were settled in full with the delivery of approximately 4.4 million shares of Class A common stock at a weighted average price of $176.02 per share. The total number of shares delivered under each ASR, and therefore the average purchase price paid per share, was determined based on the volume weighted-average price of our stock during the applicable purchase period less an agreed upon discount and subject to a cap. The shares received were retired at the time of delivery.
In April 2025, our board approved the repurchase of up to an additional $3,000.0 million of our Class A common stock through the end of 2027. Shares may be repurchased in open market purchases, block transactions and privately negotiated transactions, in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. This authorization does not obligate us to make any repurchases and may be modified, suspended or terminated by us at any time without prior notice. Under this repurchase plan, we repurchased a total of approximately 4.2 million shares of our Class A common stock, which were retired upon repurchase, for an aggregate purchase price of $625.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
In aggregate, during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we repurchased a total of approximately 8.6 million shares of our Class A common stock, which were retired upon repurchase, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,392.6 million. As of September 30, 2025, we had $2,374.7 million remaining available for repurchases under the current board authorization.

We utilize the following derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges:
foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge certain forecasted sales transactions denominated in foreign currencies;
cross-currency swaps used to manage variability due to movements in foreign currency exchange rates related to a Euro-denominated intercompany loan; and
pay-fixed rate, receive-floating rate interest rate swaps to effectively convert portions of our variable-rate debt to fixed.
We also utilize cross-currency swaps designated as net investment hedges to mitigate the risk associated with exchange rate fluctuations on our net investment in certain foreign operations.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]  
Commitments and Contingencies Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
From time-to-time, we are a party to litigation and subject to claims, suits, regulatory and government investigations, other proceedings and consent decrees in the ordinary course of business, including intellectual property claims, putative and certified class actions, commercial and consumer protection claims, labor and employment claims, breach of contract claims and other asserted and unasserted claims. We investigate claims as they arise and accrue estimates for resolution of legal and other contingencies when losses are probable and reasonably estimable.
There have been no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business to our known contractual obligations, which were included in Note 13 of Item 8 of our 2024 Form 10-K.
Indirect Taxes
We are subject to indirect taxation in some, but not all, of the various states and foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Laws, rules and regulations attempting to subject communications and commerce conducted over the Internet to various indirect taxes are becoming more prevalent, both in the U.S. and internationally, and may impose additional burdens on us in the future. Increased regulation could negatively affect our business directly, as well as the businesses of our customers. Taxing authorities may impose indirect taxes on the Internet-related revenue we generate based on regulations currently being applied to similar, but not directly comparable, industries. There are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate indirect tax determination is uncertain. In addition, domestic and international indirect taxation laws are complex and subject to change. We may be audited in the future, which could result in changes to our indirect tax estimates. We continually evaluate those jurisdictions in which nexus exists, and believe we maintain adequate indirect tax accruals.
Our accrual for estimated indirect tax liabilities was $33.7 million and $31.5 million as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, reflecting our best estimate of the probable liability based on an analysis of our business activities, revenues subject to indirect taxes and applicable regulations. Although we believe our indirect tax estimates and associated liabilities are reasonable, the final determination of indirect tax audits, litigation or settlements could be materially different than the amounts established for indirect tax contingencies.

Of the $7.9 million of pre-tax restructuring charges recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, $1.6 million and $3.5 million were recognized within our A&C and Core segments, respectively, and $2.8 million was recognized as corporate overhead.
We recognized $17.0 million of pre-tax restructuring charges in our statement of operations related to severance, employee benefits and equity-based compensation during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Of the $17.0 million of pre-tax restructuring charges recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, $6.3 million and $9.9 million were recognized within our A&C and Core segments, respectively, and $0.8 million was recognized as corporate overhead.
The following table shows the total amount incurred and the accrued restructuring costs for severance and employee benefits, which are recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in our balance sheet:

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is 13.3%, which differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to U.S. research and development tax credits, excess tax benefits related to equity-based compensation and a one-time benefit for the recognition of an uncertain tax position of $34.6 million.
We monitor the realizability of our deferred tax assets (DTAs) considering all relevant factors at each reporting period. As of September 30, 2025, based on the relevant weight of positive and negative evidence, including our ability to forecast future operating results, historical tax losses and our ability to utilize DTAs within the requisite carryforward periods, we do not maintain a valuation allowance on the majority of our U.S. federal and state DTAs.
We maintain valuation allowances on certain U.S., state and foreign carry forwards as we concluded they are not more likely than not to be realized.
Uncertain Tax Positions
The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits was $171.9 million as of September 30, 2025, of which $112.0 million, if fully recognized, would decrease our effective tax rate. Although we believe the amounts reflected in our tax returns substantially comply with applicable U.S. federal, state and foreign tax regulations, the respective taxing authorities may take contrary positions based on their interpretation of the law. A tax position successfully challenged by a taxing authority could result in an adjustment to our provision or benefit for income taxes in the period in which a final determination is made.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we recognized a $34.6 million income tax benefit related to the recognition of an uncertain tax position in a foreign jurisdiction as a result of a favorable tax court ruling.
Tax Reform
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. enacted H.R. 1 (One Big Beautiful Bill Act or The Act). The Act includes, among other provisions, changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system including allowing immediate expensing of qualifying research and development expenses and permanently extending certain provisions within the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The provisions which became effective beginning July 1, 2025 did not have a material impact to us. Based on our current analysis, we do not expect the remaining provisions to have a material impact; however, we will continue to evaluate their impact as further information becomes available.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Income Per Share Income Per Share
Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive shares unless their effect is antidilutive.
A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted income per share is as follows:

Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
We report our operating results through two reportable segments: A&C and Core.
Our chief operating decision maker (CODM), which, as of September 30, 2025, was our Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the performance of and allocates resources to our segments based on each segment's revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Segment EBITDA). Segment EBITDA is evaluated on a monthly basis by the CODM by monitoring actual results versus the annual plan. This comparison is performed to make strategic decisions regarding segment profitability, resource allocation, pricing strategies and cost optimization. Segment EBITDA is defined as segment revenues less costs and operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, interest expense (net), provision or benefit for income taxes, equity-based compensation expense, acquisition-related costs, restructuring-related expenses and certain other
items. We believe Segment EBITDA serves as a measure that assists our CODM and our investors in comparing our segments' performance on a consistent basis.
Our CODM does not use assets by segment to evaluate performance or allocate resources; therefore, we do not provide disclosure of assets by segment. See Note 2 for property, plant, and equipment, net as well as revenue disaggregated by geography.
The A&C and Core segments provide a view into the product-focused organization of our business and generate revenue as follows:
A&C primarily consists of sales of products containing proprietary software, notably our website building products, as well as our commerce products and third-party email and productivity solutions and sales of certain products when they are included in bundled offerings of our proprietary software products.
Core primarily consists of sales of domain registrations and renewals, aftermarket domain sales, website hosting products and website security products when not included in bundled offerings of our proprietary software products as well as sales of products not containing a software component.
There are no internal revenue transactions between our reportable segments.
Corporate overhead primarily includes general and administrative expenses and items not allocated to either segment as well as those costs specifically excluded from Segment EBITDA, our segment measure of profitability, such as depreciation and amortization, interest expense and income and provision or benefit for income taxes.
The following table presents our segment information for the periods indicated:

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and include our accounts and the accounts of our subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Our interim financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent period or for the year ending December 31, 2025.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the 2024 Form 10-K).
Prior Period Reclassifications
Prior Period Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These amounts were not material to any period presented.
Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions affecting amounts reported in our financial statements. We periodically evaluate our estimates and adjust prospectively, if necessary. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable; however, actual results may differ.
Segments
Segments
We report our operating results through two reportable segments: Applications and Commerce (A&C) and Core Platform (Core), as further discussed in Note 16.
Assets Recognized from Contract Costs
Assets Recognized from Contract Costs
Costs to fulfill our customer contracts primarily relate to fees paid to various registries at the inception of a domain registration or renewal. We capitalize and recognize these prepaid domain name registry fees as cost of revenue consistent with the pattern of transfer of the product to which the asset relates.
Restructuring and Other
Restructuring and Other
Restructuring and other primarily represents charges related to restructuring activities undertaken to reduce future operating expenses and improve cash flows through reductions in force.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. The framework for measuring fair value provides a three-tier hierarchy prioritizing inputs to valuation techniques used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1— Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
Level 2— Inputs, other than quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets, which are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3— Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data requiring the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
We hold certain assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These include time deposits and notice deposits, which we classify within Level 1 because we use quoted market prices to determine their fair value. Level 2 assets and liabilities include commercial paper and derivative financial instruments associated with hedging activity, as further discussed in Note 10. Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value on the contract date and are subsequently remeasured each reporting period using inputs such as spot rates, discount rates and forward rates. There are no active markets for the commercial paper or hedge contracts themselves; however, the inputs used to calculate the fair value of the instruments are tied to active markets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This guidance requires additional disclosures, primarily focused on income taxes paid and the rate reconciliation table, and is effective for our 2025 fiscal year. Adoption of this guidance will result in additional disclosures, but it will not impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance requiring public business entities to disaggregate disclosure of income statement expenses. This guidance does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories within the footnotes to the financial statements. This update is effective for our 2027 fiscal year and interim periods in fiscal year 2028, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating our timing for adoption and the impact on our future disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued guidance that modernizes the recognition and disclosure framework for internal-use software costs, removing the previous “development stage” model and introducing a more judgment-based approach. Under the new guidance, capitalization begins when management authorizes and commits to funding a project and it is probable the project will be completed and used as intended. This update is effective for our 2028 fiscal year and interim periods within, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating our timing for adoption and the impact on our financial statements.
