Removed Item 1A headings (33)

  1. •We might not grow in line with historical rates.
  2. •We have limited operating experience at our current scale, which subjects us to a number of uncertainties, risks, and difficulties that could adversely affect our business.
  3. •Our results of operations and other operating metrics fluctuate from quarter to quarter, which makes these metrics difficult to predict.
  4. •We have incurred operating losses in the past and might not be profitable in the future.
  5. •As registered broker-dealers, we are subject to “best execution” requirements under SEC guidelines and FINRA rules. We could be penalized if we fail to comply with these requirements and these requirements might be modified in the future in a way that could harm our business.
  6. •Unfavorable media coverage and other events that harm our brand and reputation could adversely affect our revenue and the size, engagement, and loyalty of our customer base.
  7. •Our business has been and might continue to be harmed by changes in business, economic, or political conditions that impact global financial markets, or by a systemic market event.
  8. •Our future success depends on the continuing efforts of our key employees and our ability to attract and retain senior management and other highly skilled personnel.
  9. •Our business is subject to extensive, complex and changing laws and regulations, and related regulatory proceedings and investigations. Changes in these laws and regulations, or our failure to comply with these laws and regulations, could harm our business.

  12. •We operate in highly competitive markets, and many of our competitors have greater resources than we do and may have products and services that are more appealing than ours to our current or potential customers.
  13. •If we fail to retain existing customers or attract new customers, or if our customers decrease their use of our products and services, our revenue will decline.
  14. •If we fail to provide and monetize new and innovative products and services that are adopted by customers, our business may become less competitive and our revenue might decline.
  15. •Our products and services rely on software and systems that are highly technical and have been, and may in the future be, subject to interruption, instability, and other potential flaws due to software errors, design defects, and other processing, operational, and technological failures, whether internal or external.
  16. •We rely on third parties to perform some key functions, and their failure to perform those functions could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
  17. •We are incorporating AI technologies into some of our products and processes. These technologies may present business, compliance, and reputational risks.
  18. •Our business could be materially and adversely affected by a cybersecurity breach or other attack involving our computer systems or data or those of our customers or third-party or fourth-party service providers.

  23. •The multi-class structure of our common stock has the effect of concentrating voting power with our founders, which limits your ability to influence the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval. In addition, the Founders’ Voting Agreement (as defined below) and any future issuances of our Class C common stock could prolong the duration of our founders’ voting control.
  24. We have limited operating experience at our current scale, which subjects us to a number of uncertainties, risks, and difficulties that could adversely affect our business.
  25. •the impacts of public health threats (including pandemics such as COVID-19), unemployment, and inflation; and

  27. We have incurred operating losses in the past and might not be profitable in the future.
  28. We are directly and indirectly exposed to fluctuations in interest rates, and rapidly changing interest rate environments could reduce our net interest revenues and otherwise result in reduced profitability.
  29. •a prolonged weakness in popular equities or cryptocurrencies specifically or in U.S. equity and cryptocurrency markets generally, or a sustained downturn in the U.S. economy; and
  30. •any of the foregoing with respect to our competitors, to the extent the resulting negative perception affects the public’s perception of us or our industry as a whole.
  31. We recently started operating in certain international markets and plan to further expand our international operations, which exposes us to significant new risks, and our international expansion efforts might not succeed.
  32. Any particular cryptocurrency’s status as a “security” is subject to a high degree of uncertainty and if we have not properly characterized one or more cryptocurrencies, we might be subject to regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, and other penalties.
  33. Cryptocurrency laws, regulations, and accounting standards are often difficult to interpret and are rapidly evolving in ways that are difficult to predict. Changes in these laws and regulations, or our failure to comply with them, could negatively impact cryptocurrency trading on our platform.

Factors that affect transaction-based revenue — such as reduced spreads in securities pricing, reduced levels of trading activity generally, changes in our business relationships with [added: or disruption in the services provided by] market makers, and any new regulation of, or any bans on, PFOF and similar practices — might result in reduced profitability, increased compliance costs, and negative publicity.

We might experience declines in the growth of our business (or negative growth) as a result of a number of factors, including slowing demand for our [removed: platform,] [added: platforms,] insufficient growth in the number of customers that utilize our [removed: platform,] [added: platforms,] declines in the level of usage of our [removed: platform] [added: platforms] by existing customers, macroeconomic factors, increasing competition, a decrease in the growth of our overall market, or our failure to continue to capitalize on growth opportunities, including as a result of our inability to scale to meet such growth and economic conditions that have, in some instances, and could continue to reduce financial activity and the maturation of our business, among others.

Rewritten

We have [removed: limited operating experience at] [added: expanded and continue to expand] our [removed: current scale,] [added: operations rapidly, including continuing to introduce new products and services on our platforms as well as geographic expansion,] which subjects us to a number of uncertainties, risks, and difficulties that could adversely affect our business.

We have expanded [added: and continue to expand] our operations rapidly, including continuing to introduce new products and services [removed: in our platform, and have limited operating experience at] [added: on] our [removed: current scale,] [added: platforms as well as geographic expansion,] which makes it difficult to evaluate our current business and future prospects, and subjects us to a number of uncertainties, including our ability to plan for, model, and manage potential future growth and risks.

Rewritten

As part of our ongoing efforts in the normal course of business, we [added: also] continuously evaluate whether we are appropriately staffed to be cost efficient.

Rewritten

*financial condition, results of operations, and prospects could be materially and adversely affected by any of these risks or uncertainties.

New in FY2024

We also may not realize the intended benefits of acquisitions of, or investments in, other companies, products or technologies intended to grow our business.

New in FY2024

For example, we have undertaken multiple restructurings in recent years, including significant workforce reductions, and scaled back hiring plans.

New in FY2024

These actions were driven by a general downturn in economic and market conditions.

New in FY2024

While these steps were taken to improve operational efficiency, there can be no assurance

New in FY2024

that further restructuring or workforce reductions will not be necessary in the future.

New in FY2024

Additionally, as our business operations continue to expand, we have had and may continue to have difficulties meeting customer demand and expectations.

New in FY2024

We generated positive full year GAAP net income for the first time in 2024.

New in FY2024

which we experience decreased levels of trading generally.

New in FY2024

For example, the SEC’s recently adopted final rules (the “September 2024 Final Rules”) to, among other things, adopt an additional minimum pricing increment, or “tick size,” for the quoting of certain national market system (“NMS”) stocks under Rule 612 of Regulation NMS, reduce the access fee caps for protected quotations under Rule 610 of Regulation NMS and enhance the transparency of better priced orders.

New in FY2024

While the SEC granted a partial stay of the effectiveness of the final rules in December 2024 pending the completion of judicial review of the petition for review, it did not stay the effective date of the quote transparency rules.

New in FY2024

The quote transparency rules will make the information about smaller-sized orders publicly available and result in the contraction of spreads across several securities, which we expect will lead to a decrease in the PFOF earned from such orders once the rules go into effect in November 2025.

New in FY2024

Additionally, this risk is heightened for brokerage orders executed outside of regular market hours through Robinhood 24 Hour Market, as currently all brokerage trades executed overnight are routed through one market maker — Virtu Financial, Inc. (“Virtu”).

New in FY2024

If Virtu becomes unwilling or unable to do business with us in the future, we may be unable to find additional market makers to support Robinhood 24 Hour Market, which could negatively impact our transaction-based revenue.

New in FY2024

Additionally, disruptions in the services provided by market makers, whether due to technical malfunctions, operational mishaps, or financial instability of the market makers, or external factors such as regulatory changes or market volatility, have in the past, and may in the future impair our ability to execute our client's orders.

New in FY2024

Should a market maker experience downtime or diminished performance, particularly during peak trading hours, our ability to execute customer orders could be compromised and could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

New in FY2024

In March 2024, the SEC adopted amendments to enhance order execution disclosures under Rule 605 of Regulation NMS, which will apply for the first time to RHF and RHS beginning in December 2025.

New in FY2024

In September 2024, the SEC also adopted rules related to order tick size and access fee caps (the “Tick Size and Access Fee Cap Rules”).

New in FY2024

Beginning in December 2025, the Order Execution Disclosure Rules will require brokers, including RHF and RHS, to make new, publicly available execution quality disclosures that will allow customers, regulators, academics, the press and others to compare execution quality between brokers.

New in FY2024

Execution quality of brokers may vary based on the trading characteristics of the broker’s customers, including, but not limited to, the average number of shares traded, the types of securities (e.g., large cap, small cap, more liquid or less liquid, average spread size, etc.), what types of orders customers submit (e.g., market or limit) and when customers place their trades (e.g., market open, during the regular session or market close).

New in FY2024

Depending on how our order execution quality compares to other brokers, we could be subject to negative press or critical academic studies that could result in regulatory scrutiny or civil actions which could harm our brand and reputation.

New in FY2024

Beginning in November 2025, the Tick Size and Access Fee Cap Rules will make information about smaller-sized orders publicly available and is likely to result in the contraction of spreads across many securities, which we expect will lead to a decrease in the PFOF earned from such orders.

New in FY2024

with certain market makers.

New in FY2024

RHC is in the process of allowing customers to choose a fee-based model in lieu of our current liquidity provider rebate-based model (under which RHC receives payments akin to PFOF from liquidity providers) for cryptocurrency orders.

New in FY2024

This shift may lead to negative publicity due to potential differences in total costs for customers under the two models.

New in FY2024

Depending on the nature of these cost differences, concerns might arise about (i) the use of PFOF with respect to other asset classes like equities and options and/or (ii) the replacement of liquidity provider rebates by customer fees for orders in cryptocurrency routed for execution via exchanges.

New in FY2024

Any negative publicity associated with adopting this model may have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

New in FY2024

minimum credit card payments, deliver securities sold, or meet margin calls, and therefore lead to increased delinquencies, charge-offs, and allowances for loan and interest receivables, which could have an adverse effect on our net income (loss).

New in FY2024

We have in the past and continue to be subject to investigations related to our best execution practices.

New in FY2024

These amendments, which require broker-dealer compliance by December 2025, will make it more difficult for us to comply with our obligations with regard to capital maintenance requirements.

New in FY2024

limit clearinghouse deposit requirements.

New in FY2024

We also need to hold capital and make deposits with respect to certain event contracts in accordance with applicable CFTC regulations and ForecastEx, LLC, Kalshi Klear LLC, and KalshiEx LLC’s Rulebooks for Robinhood Derivatives, LLC.

Given our heavy emphasis on SBC, the performance of our stock price has in the past had, and could continue to have, a significant impact on our ability to recruit, retain, and motivate highly skilled personnel.

announced two restructurings in April 2022 (the “April 2022 Restructuring”) and August of 2022 (the “August 2022 Restructuring”) that impacted approximately 1,100 employees and scaled back hiring plans.

As interest rates increased starting in 2022, interest income has contributed an increasing share of our total net revenues, net income (loss), and cash flows, prior to any income tax effects.

Dropped from FY2023

As previously disclosed, in December 2019 and 2020, we settled a FINRA disciplinary action and an SEC investigation, respectively, that related to our best execution practices.

Dropped from FY2023

Any such amendments could make it more difficult for us to comply with these regulations.

relating to our platform, such as the service outages on our stock trading platform on March 2-3, 2020 and March 9, 2020 (the “March 2020 Outages”), the partial service outages and degraded service on our cryptocurrency platform from time to time in mid-April and early May 2021 caused by a surging demand for cryptocurrency trading (the “April-May 2021 Disruptions”), or the data security incident we experienced in November 2021 when an unauthorized third-party socially engineered a customer support employee by phone and obtained access to certain customer support systems (the “November 2021 Data Security Incident”) are likely to receive extensive media attention.

has resulted, and could result in the future in reduced revenues and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Dropped from FY2023

For example, as a result of the 2022 Bear Markets, for fiscal year 2022, our daily revenue trades for options, equities, and crypto declined by 33%, 49%, and 75%, compared to fiscal year 2021.

Dropped from FY2023

We currently have a remote work policy, under which a large segment of our employees are not required to come into the office on a daily basis, although since September 2023, most employees living within 35 miles of any of our offices are expected to work in-office at least three days a week (the “Return to Office policy”).

Dropped from FY2023

Employees who do not live within 35 miles of any of our offices continue to be allowed to work remotely full-time.

Dropped from FY2023

Given our heavy emphasis on SBC, the declines in our stock price (which make previously-granted SBC less valuable) have exacerbated the difficulty of recruiting, retaining, and motivating highly skilled personnel.

Dropped from FY2023

For example, in April 2022 we signed a definitive agreement to acquire Ziglu Limited (“Ziglu”), a U.K.-based electronic money institution and crypto asset firm.

Dropped from FY2023

However, as a result of prolonged regulatory uncertainty, after careful consideration, we notified Ziglu of the termination of the agreement in February 2023.

Dropped from FY2023

In connection with the termination of the agreement, we took a $12 million impairment charge, in addition to suffering losses from legal fees and other expenses.

Dropped from FY2023

Additionally, because we had expected Ziglu’s team and technology to help accelerate our international expansion, the termination of the deal has delayed our plans to expand our operations in Europe, particularly with respect to cryptocurrency trading.

As our business has grown and we have added additional account types (such as retirement accounts), we have relabeled this metric (and made conforming changes throughout other definitions) to clarify that it measures unique individuals (rather than accounts), although the calculation remains the same and does not affect amounts reported in prior periods.
