Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of business
Arlo Technologies, Inc. (“we,” “our,” “us,” or “Arlo”) is transforming the ways in which people can protect everything that matters to them with home, business, and personal security services that combine a globally scaled cloud platform, monitoring and analytics capabilities, and award-winning app-controlled devices to create a personalized security ecosystem. Arlo’s experience in cloud services, AI and computer vision analytics, wireless connectivity and intuitive user experience design delivers seamless, smart home security for Arlo users that can be setup by the customers and engaged with every day. Our cloud-based platform provides users with visibility, insight and a powerful means to help protect and connect in real-time with the people and things that matter most, from any location with a Wi-Fi or a cellular connection.
We conduct business across three geographic regions—(i) the Americas; (ii) Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and (iii) Asia Pacific (“APAC”)—and primarily generate revenue by selling paid subscription services, as well as devices through retail, wholesale distribution, strategic partners, security solution providers, and Arlo’s direct-to-consumer store.
Our corporate headquarters is located in Carlsbad, California, with other satellite offices across North America and various other global locations.
Basis of presentation
We prepare our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Arlo and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, which was filed with the SEC on February 27, 2026. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair statement of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for interim periods.
Fiscal periods
Our fiscal year begins on January 1 of the year stated and ends on December 31 of the same year. We report the results on a fiscal quarter basis rather than on a calendar quarter basis. Under the fiscal quarter basis, each of the first three fiscal quarters ends on the Sunday closest to the calendar quarter end, with the fourth quarter ending on December 31.

Use of estimates
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. During the nine months ended September 27, 2026, there have been no significant changes to such policies except for the items below.
Business combinations
We account for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. The purchase consideration for business combinations is measured at fair value as of the acquisition date and includes the fair value of assets transferred, liabilities incurred, and equity interests issued, as well as the fair value of any contingent consideration arrangements. Transaction costs associated with business combinations, such as legal, accounting, and advisory fees, are expensed as incurred and included in other operating expense on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The results of operations of acquired businesses are included in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements from the respective acquisition dates.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized at their acquisition‑date fair values. Any excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill represents the future economic benefits arising from assets acquired that are not individually identifiable and separately recognized. Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to impairment testing at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired.
The determination of the acquisition‑date fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, including assumptions related to forecasted cash flows, discount rates, expected useful lives of intangible assets, and the probability and timing of contingent payments. These estimates are based on information available as of the acquisition date and on assumptions management believes are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from those estimates.
The initial accounting for business combinations may be incomplete as of the reporting date. In such cases, provisional amounts are recorded based on the best information available, and these amounts may be adjusted during the measurement period as additional information is obtained related to facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Measurement period adjustments are recorded retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments to goodwill. The measurement period ends when we receive the information we were seeking about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date, or when it is determined that no additional information is obtainable, but shall not exceed one year from the acquisition date.

Acquired intangible assets
Accounting pronouncements recently adopted
During the nine months ended September 27, 2026, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2025-05, Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets, which provides a practical expedient permitting companies to assume that conditions at the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets. This adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements.
Accounting pronouncements not yet effective
Disclosure improvements. In October 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, which modifies the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification. Among the various codification amendments, Topic 470 Debt is applicable to Arlo which requires the disclosure of amounts, terms and weighted-average interest rates of unused lines of credit. The effective date is either (i) the date on which the SEC’s removal of the related disclosure requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, or (ii) on June 30, 2027, if the SEC has not removed the requirement by that date, with early adoption prohibited. The adoption of this new standard will not have a material impact on our financial statements and related disclosures.
Expense disaggregation disclosures. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement: Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which improves disclosure requirements and mandates enhanced transparency about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions in financial statements. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and is effective on either a prospective basis or retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance may have on our financial statements and related disclosures.
Software development costs accounting and disclosure. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software: Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which modernizes the recognition and capitalization framework to reflect current software development practices, including iterative and agile methodologies, by removing references to “development stages.” It also clarifies the criteria for capitalization, which begins when both of the following occur: (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and for interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted and is effective on either a prospective basis or retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance may have on our financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 3. Revenue
Contract balances
The following table reflects the changes in contract balances for the nine months ended September 27, 2026:
Contract Classification | Balance Sheet Classification | September 27, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | $ Change | % Change | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (In thousands) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Receivables | Accounts receivable, net | $ | $ | $ | % | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Contract assets | Other current assets | $ | $ | $ | ** | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Contract liabilities, current | Deferred revenue | $ | $ | $ | % | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Contract liabilities, non-current | Other non-current liabilities | $ | $ | $ | % | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
_________________________
**Percentage change not meaningful.
Receivables increased primarily due to higher product and service sales. Contract assets are related to the value of products and services transferred to the customer for which the right to payment is not just dependent on the passage of time. Contract liabilities increased primarily due to growth in subscriptions and services revenue driven by changes in consumer subscription plans, a shift toward additional annual prepaid subscriptions, and increases in cumulative paid accounts and subscription rates.
For the nine months ended September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2025, $34.4 million and $25.6 million, respectively, of the recognized revenue was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the periods. There were no significant changes in estimates during the periods that would affect the contract balances.
Remaining performance obligations
The total estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied and remaining was $51.5 million as of September 27, 2026 and $40.6 million as of December 31, 2025, substantially related to performance obligations classified as less than one year
Under the Supply Agreement with Verisure Sàrl (“Verisure”), our largest customer, a performance obligation is not deemed to exist until we receive and accept Verisure’s purchase order. As of September 27, 2026, we had a backlog of $23.0 million which represents performance obligations that will be recognized as revenue once fulfilled, which is expected to occur over the next six months .
Variable consideration
Revenue from all sales is recognized at transaction price, the amount we expect to be entitled to in exchange for providing services or transferring goods. Transaction price is calculated as selling price net of variable consideration which includes estimates for sales incentives and sales returns related to current period products revenue. Sales incentives are determined based on a combination of the actual amounts committed and estimated future expenditure based upon historical customary business practice. Sales returns are estimated by analyzing certain factors, including historical sales and returns data, channel inventory levels, current economic trends, and changes in customer demand for our products. Variable consideration estimates are based on predictive historical data or future commitments that we plan and control. However, we continue to assess variable consideration estimates such that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur.

Note 4. Business Combinations
Canary Connect, Inc.
On March 11, 2026, we entered into and simultaneously closed an Asset Purchase Agreement with Canary Connect, Inc. (“Canary”), a New York-based Internet of Things (“IoT”) company that designs and sells smart home security devices and SaaS solutions. The purpose of this transaction is to expand our presence in the AI-driven smart home security market. The transaction is accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. As a result of the transaction, we obtained control of Canary by obtaining the ability to direct its ongoing operations and to receive substantially all of the economic benefits associated with Canary.
As part of this transaction, we also entered into a Transitional Service Agreement with Canary and a Platform Transformation Agreement with Smartfrog & Canary Holdings, Inc. (“Smartfrog Group”) in order to continue servicing Canary’s existing customers and subscribers.
We allocate the purchase consideration to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in this business combination based on their acquisition-date fair values, which are determined using income and market-based valuation techniques that require significant judgments and assumptions, including projected revenue, profitability and cash flows. Goodwill recognized through the Canary acquisition represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets and is primarily attributable to expected synergies and operational efficiencies and anticipated future economic benefits. The resulting goodwill associated with Canary is deductible for income tax purposes.
The preliminary fair value estimates of the net assets acquired are based upon preliminary calculations and valuations, and those estimates and assumptions are subject to change as we obtain additional information for those estimates during the measurement period, which is up to one year from the acquisition date. As of September 27, 2026, the purchase accounting is not yet complete and as such, the final allocation between intangible assets and goodwill may be subject to change. Adjustments, if any, to the preliminary purchase price allocation will be made in the periods in which the adjustments are determined, and the cumulative effect of such adjustments will be calculated as if the adjustments had been completed as of the acquisition date. The acquired intangible assets will be amortized over their estimated useful lives.
The acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of the following (in thousands):
| Cash paid at close | $ | ||||
Fixed deferred acquisition consideration (1) | |||||
| Total purchase consideration | $ | ||||
_________________________
(1) Represents the present value of thirty-six month ly license fee payments to be made at interest rate of 5.8 %.

(1) Customer relationship intangible assets were valued using the multi-period excess earnings method, which is the present value of the projected cash flows expected to be generated by the existing customer relationships, after deducting contributory asset charges representing a fair return on other assets required to generate those cash flows. Key assumptions included discounted cash flow and estimated customer retention rates.
(2) Proprietary technologies intangible assets comprised of various developed technologies, which were valued using the relief-from-royalty method and the multi-period excess earnings method. The relief-from-royalty method is based on the discounted cash flow savings accruing to the owner from not having to license the technology from a third party. Key assumptions included attributable revenue, royalty rates, and technology obsolescence rates. The multi-period excess earnings method is based on the discounted cash flows after deducting contributory asset charges representing a fair return on other assets required to generate those cash flows. Key assumptions included attributable revenue, profitability, cash flows, and technology obsolescence rates.
(3) Trade names intangible assets were valued using the relief from royalty method, which is the discounted cash flow savings accruing to the owner by virtue of the fact that the owner is not required to license the trade names from a third party. Key assumptions included attributable revenue expected from the trade names, royalty rates, and assumed asset life.
Aloe Care Health, Inc.
On April 16, 2026, we entered into and simultaneously closed a Merger Agreement with Aloe Care Health, Inc. (“Aloe Care”), a privately held company that provides an AI-powered medical alert and fall prevention platform for patients and their caregivers. The transaction is intended to accelerate the expansion of our AI-powered services for aging-in-place care in collaboration with health providers, patients and their families. The transaction is accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. As a result of the transaction, we obtained control of Aloe Care by obtaining the ability to direct its ongoing operations and to receive substantially all of the economic benefits associated with Aloe Care. Under the Merger Agreement, we acquired 100 % of the outstanding equity interests of Aloe Care in exchange for (i) $15.0 million of cash consideration paid at closing; and (ii) contingent earnout of up to $25.0 million, payable, at our option, in cash, shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and shares, subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement.

The preliminary fair value estimates of the net assets acquired are based upon preliminary calculations and valuations, and those estimates and assumptions are subject to change as we obtain additional information for those estimates during the measurement period, which is up to one year from the acquisition date. As of September 27, 2026, the purchase accounting and opening balance sheet are not yet complete and as such, the final working capital and allocation between intangible assets and goodwill may be subject to change. Adjustments, if any, to the preliminary purchase price allocation will be made in the periods in which the adjustments are determined, and the cumulative effect of such adjustments will be calculated as if the adjustments had been completed as of the acquisition date. The acquired intangible assets will be amortized over their estimated useful lives.

(1) Customer relationship intangible assets were valued using the distributor method, which is the present value of the after-tax cash flows expected to be generated by the existing customer relationships, after reduction by an estimated fair rate of return on contributory assets required to generate the customer relationship revenues. Key assumptions included the discount rate, estimated customer retention rates, and the selected distributor profit margin derived from guideline public distributor companies.
(2) Proprietary technologies intangible assets were valued using the multi-period excess earnings method based on the discounted cash flows and technology obsolescence rate. Key assumptions included attributable revenue, profitability, cash flows, and technology obsolescence rates.
(3) Trade names intangible assets were valued using the relief from royalty method, which is the discounted cash flow savings accruing to the owner by virtue of the fact that the owner is not required to license the trade names from a third party. Key assumptions included attributable revenue expected from the trade names, royalty rates, and assumed asset life.
During the nine months ended September 27, 2026, we recorded $0.8 million and $2.2 million in acquisition-related costs for Canary and Aloe Care, respectively, which are expensed when incurred and included in other operating expense on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
During the nine months ended September 27, 2026, we recorded $7.8 million of subscriptions and services revenue and $2.0 million of operating income from Canary and Aloe Care, which are included within our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income from their respective effective dates. The effect of these business combinations was not material to our financial results. Therefore, the actual and pro-forma results of operations from the respective acquisition dates to September 27, 2026 have not been presented.

Earnout contingent consideration
Earnout contingent consideration recognized through the Aloe Care acquisition is measured at the fair value on a recurring basis and is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the measurement requires the use of significant unobservable inputs. The fair value of the earnout contingent consideration was estimated using income and market-based valuation techniques and discounted to present value at closing of the acquisition.
Subsequent to the acquisition, we utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to re-assess the fair value of earnout contingent consideration each quarter. The fair value measurement was based on significant unobservable inputs which include projected revenue, profitability, and the timing of achieving the earnout targets. We applied a revenue discount rate of 6.7 % to the projected revenue inputs and a discount rate of 8.8 % to present value the resulting payment as of September 27, 2026.
The contingent consideration liability is included in other non-current liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability are recognized in other operating expense on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. For the three months ended September 27, 2026, change in the fair value of earnout contingent consideration was de minimis.
Fair value on a non-recurring basis
Our non-financial assets, such as property and equipment, goodwill, and intangible assets are assessed for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable.

Sale of long-term investment
During the first fiscal quarter of 2026, we sold our investment in connection with a privately held company’s acquisition by a public company. This investment was accounted for as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value and was measured at cost, less impairment, adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment in the same issuer in accordance with ASC 321, Investments-Equity Securities. Upon completion of the sale, we received total cash proceeds of $18.9 million and recognized a realized gain of $6.4 million, representing the excess of proceeds received over the carrying value of the investment. The gain from the sale of the investment is included in other income, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Our Chief Executive Officer served on the board of directors of the privately held company and, as a result, the investee is considered a related party and the sale of our investment is a related party transaction.
Note 7. Revolving Credit Facility
On November 14, 2024, we entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as administrative agent, issuing bank, and lender. The Credit Agreement provides for a three-year revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) of up to $45.0 million that matures on November 14, 2027, which also includes a $10.0 million sublimit for the issuance thereunder of letters of credit. As of September 27, 2026, we had unused borrowing capacity of $45.0 million based on the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. In addition, the Credit Agreement includes an uncommitted accordion feature that allows us to, from time to time, request an increase to the aggregate revolving loan commitments by up to an additional $30.0 million in the aggregate, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The proceeds of the borrowings under the Credit Facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of our assets, including substantially all of the assets of a material subsidiary, Arlo Technologies International Limited, a limited corporation organized under the laws of Ireland. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a floating rate equal to: (i) the term secured overnight financing rate plus the applicable rate of 2.25 % to 2.75 %, or (ii) the base rate plus the applicable rate of 1.25 % to 1.75 % both determined based on a total net leverage ratio. Among other fees, we are required to pay a quarterly unused fee of 0.20 % per annum on the amount by which the lenders’ aggregate commitment under the Credit Facility exceeds the daily revolver usage during such quarter. The Credit Agreement contains events of default, representations and warranties, and affirmative and negative covenants customary for credit facilities of this type. The Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants that require us to (i) maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.50 to 1.00 and (ii) maintain a total net leverage ratio, not to exceed 3.00 to 1.00; both covenants being tested quarterly on a trailing four consecutive fiscal quarter basis.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies
Operating leases
Our operating lease obligations mostly include offices, equipment, and distribution centers, with various expiration dates through June 2033. Certain lease agreements include options to renew or terminate the lease, which are generally not reasonably certain to be exercised and therefore are not factored into our determination of lease payments. The terms of certain leases provide for rental payments on a graduated scale. Gross lease expense was $0.8 million and $2.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, respectively, and $1.2 million and $4.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2025, respectively.

Purchase obligations
We have entered into various inventory-related purchase agreements with suppliers. Generally, under these agreements, 50 % of orders are cancelable by giving notice 46 to 60 days prior to the expected shipment date and 25 % of orders are cancelable by giving notice 31 to 45 days prior to the expected shipment date. Orders are non-cancelable within 30 days prior to the expected shipment date. As of September 27, 2026, we had $25.8 million in non-cancelable purchase commitments with suppliers, which are expected to be paid over the next twelve months .
As of September 27, 2026, an additional $20.8 million of purchase orders beyond contractual termination periods have been issued to supply chain partners in anticipation of demand requirements. Consequently, we may incur expenses for the materials and components, such as chipsets already purchased by the supplier to fulfill our orders if the purchase order is cancelled. Expenses incurred have historically not been material relative to the original order value.
Tariff refunds
On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that certain of the tariffs imposed in fiscal 2025 under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”) were unlawful. The ruling did not address potential refunds; however, on March 4, 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade ordered U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) to begin refunding all tariffs imposed under IEEPA. On April 20, 2026, the CBP launched a process for submitting IEEPA refund claims and subsequently, we submitted refund claims. We applied a gain contingency model in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, and account for refunds when the amounts are collected as a reduction of cost of revenue on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Additionally, interest associated with refunds is accounted for as interest income on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, we received and recognized tariff refunds of $6.3 million and $14.2 million, respectively, and interest income of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. We have received substantially all tariff refunds as of the date the financial statements were issued.
Litigation and other legal matters
We are, and from time to time, we may become involved in disputes, litigation, and other legal actions in the ordinary course of business. At each reporting period, we evaluate whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under the provisions of the authoritative guidance that addresses accounting for contingencies. Significant judgment is required to determine both the probability and the estimated amount of loss. In such cases, we accrue for the amount or, if a range, we accrue the low end of the range, only if there is not a better estimate than any other amount within the range, as litigation reserves in other operating expense on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. We monitor developments in these legal matters that could affect the estimate we had previously accrued. We currently believe that there are no existing claims or proceedings that are likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position within the next 12 months. There are many uncertainties associated with any litigation, and these actions or other third-party claims against us may cause us to incur costly litigation and/or substantial settlement charges. In addition, the resolution of any intellectual property litigation may require us to make royalty payments, which could have an adverse effect in future periods. If any of those events were to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be adversely affected. The actual liability in any such matters may be materially different from our estimates, which could result in the need to adjust the liability and record additional expenses.

Indemnifications
In the ordinary course of business, we may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to customers, distributors, resellers, vendors, lessors, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters including, but not limited to, losses arising from breach of such agreements or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with members of our Board of Directors and certain of our executive officers that require us, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is, in many cases, unlimited. As of September 27, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnification obligations and we are not currently aware of any indemnification claims.

Note 10. Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 27, 2026 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to cumulative research and development tax credit adjustments recorded in the quarter ended September 27, 2026 and the lower pre-tax income, which magnified the effect of discrete and non-deductible items on the rate. These increases were partially offset by earnings in foreign jurisdictions subject to lower tax rates and the continued impact of the valuation allowance. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 27, 2026 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to earnings generated in lower-tax foreign jurisdictions and the continued impact of valuation allowances recorded against substantially all of our U.S. deferred tax assets and certain foreign tax attributes.
We evaluated the realizability of deferred tax assets on a jurisdictional basis in accordance with ASC 740 Income taxes. A valuation allowance is maintained when it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of September 27, 2026, we continue to maintain a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets at both federal and state levels. In making this determination, we considered all available positive and negative evidence, with greater weight given to objectively verifiable evidence.
Although we have recently generated cumulative pre-tax income, we determined that we have not yet demonstrated a sustained level of profitability sufficient to support realization of the deferred tax assets. We also considered forecasted future taxable income; however, such projections are inherently uncertain and do not outweigh the available negative evidence. Based on the totality of evidence, we concluded that it is not more-likely-than-not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been maintained as of September 27, 2026. There is a reasonable possibility that within the next few quarters, sufficient positive evidence will become available to reach a conclusion that all or a significant portion of the valuation allowance against our U.S. net deferred tax assets would no longer be required.

Note 13. Stock Repurchase Program
On February 3, 2026, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program for up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of shares of Arlo’s common stock through open market purchases in a manner deemed to be in the best interests of our company and stockholders, considering the economic cost and prevailing market conditions, including the relative trading prices and volumes of Arlo’s common stock. The stock repurchase program is expected to continue through December 31, 2027, unless extended or shortened by the Board of Directors.
The timing and actual number of shares repurchased under the repurchase program depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and other investment opportunities. Shares may be repurchased through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions, including through the use of trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. During the nine months ended September 27, 2026, we repurchased and subsequently retired 3.3 million shares of Arlo common stock for an aggregate repurchase amount of $44.0 million. As of September 27, 2026, $6.0 million remained available and authorized for future repurchases.
On October 27, 2026, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program of up to an aggregate of $100.0 million of shares of Arlo’s common stock, which is expected to continue through December 31, 2028 unless extended or shortened by the Board of Directors.

Business and Executive Overview
Arlo is transforming the ways in which people can protect everything that matters to them with advanced home, business, and personal security services that combine a globally scaled cloud platform, advanced monitoring and analytics capabilities, and award-winning app-controlled devices to create a personalized security ecosystem. Arlo’s deep expertise in cloud services, cutting-edge AI and computer vision analytics, wireless connectivity and intuitive user experience design delivers seamless, smart home security for Arlo users that is easy to setup and engage with every day. Our highly secure, cloud-based platform provides users with visibility, insight and a powerful means to help protect and connect in real-time with the people and things that matter most, from any location with a Wi-Fi or a cellular connection – all rooted in a commitment to safeguard privacy for our users and their personal data.
Since the launch of our first product in December 2014, we have shipped over 46.9 million smart security devices. As of September 27, 2026, the Arlo platform had approximately 14.2 million cumulative registered accounts across more than 100 countries around the world coupled with approximately 6.6 million cumulative paid accounts and annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) of $369.9 million.
We conduct business across three geographic regions—(i) the Americas; (ii) Europe, Middle-East and Africa (“EMEA”); and (iii) Asia Pacific (“APAC”)—and we primarily generate revenue by selling paid subscription services, as well as devices through retail, wholesale distribution, strategic partners, security solution providers, and Arlo’s direct to consumer store. For the three months ended September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2025, we generated total revenue of $149.2 million and $139.5 million, respectively, and income from operations was $1.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 27, 2026 and September 28, 2025, we generated total revenue of $455.5 million and $388.0 million, respectively, and income from operations was $11.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively.
Our goal is to continue to develop innovative, world-class smart security solutions to expand and further monetize our current and future user and paid account bases. We believe that the growth of our business is dependent on many factors, including our ability to innovate and launch successful new products on a timely basis and grow our installed base, to increase subscription-based recurring revenue, to invest in channel and other strategic partnerships and to continue our
28
global expansion. We expect to increase our investment in research and development going forward as we continue to introduce new and innovative products and services to enhance the Arlo platform and compete for engineering talent. We also expect our sales and marketing expenses to increase in the future as we invest in marketing to drive demand for our products and services.
Key Business Metrics
In addition to the measures presented in our consolidated financial statements, we use the following key metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, develop financial forecasts and make strategic decisions. We believe these key business metrics provide useful information by offering the ability to make more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our on-going operating results and a better understanding of how management plans and measures our underlying business. Our key business metrics may be calculated in a manner different from the same key business metrics used by other companies. We regularly review our processes for calculating these metrics, and from time to time we may discover a need to make adjustments to better reflect our business. We believe that any such adjustments are immaterial unless otherwise stated.

Cumulative Registered Accounts. Registered accounts at the end of a particular period are defined as the number of unique registered accounts on our platforms. The number of registered accounts does not directly correspond to the number of users. A single account may be shared by multiple users (which we consider as one account) and a single user may have multiple accounts (which we consider as multiple accounts).
Cumulative Paid Accounts. Paid accounts at the end of a particular period are defined as any account worldwide where a subscription-based or otherwise recurring service fee was collected by Arlo (either directly from a user or from a partner).
Annual Recurring Revenue. We believe ARR enables measurement of our business initiatives and serves as an indicator of our future growth. ARR represents and is defined as the annualized paid subscriptions and services revenue we expect to recognize from subscription contracts, as calculated by taking the average paid subscriptions and services revenue per paid account of the reporting period multiplied by the number of paid accounts at the end of the reporting period. ARR is a performance metric and should be viewed independently of revenue and deferred revenue, and is not intended to be a substitute for, or combined with, any of these items.
Impact of Global Geopolitical, Economic and Business Conditions
The U.S. government has implemented tariff measures affecting a broad range of imported materials, and these measures have been subject to change. While we are actively monitoring the changes in global trade policy and the effects they may have on our business and broader macroeconomic environment, we do not expect them to have a material detrimental impact on our business operations in the near term. However, given the uncertainty surrounding global markets as a result of the fluid U.S. tariff policy, we do not have clarity at this point over the potential medium to long term impacts our business may face. We continue to monitor and evaluate these developments and assess their potential impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The availability of certain goods could be affected if foreign suppliers choose to limit their exposure to U.S. markets in response to unfavorable trade policies, which could negatively impact our suppliers’ ability to deliver materials or manufacture equipment for us and, therefore, delay or impede our product deliveries. Furthermore, rising inflation, slower economic growth and increases in unemployment that may result from global trade disruptions could further deflate consumer demand and impact the demand for our products.

Revenue
Our gross revenue consists primarily of paid subscriptions and services revenue and sales of devices. Our paid subscription services are billed in advance of the start of the annual or monthly subscription and revenue is recognized ratably over the subscription period. We generally recognize revenue from product sales at the time the product is shipped and transfer of control from us to the customer occurs.
Our revenue consists of gross revenue, less customer rebates and other channel sales incentives, allowances for estimated sales returns, price protection, and net changes in deferred revenue. A significant portion of our marketing expenditure is with customers and is deemed to be a reduction of revenue under authoritative guidance for revenue recognition.
30
We conduct business across three geographic regions—(i) the Americas; (ii) EMEA; and (iii) APAC—and generally base revenue by geographic region on the bill-to location of the customer for device sales and the device location for subscriptions and services sales.

Subscriptions and services revenue increased by $16.1 million or 20.1%, and $52.2 million or 23.0%, for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, respectively, compared with the prior year periods. The increases were primarily driven by a 23.1% increase in cumulative paid accounts and the growth in average revenue per user (“ARPU”) on retail and direct paid subscription services, reflecting a higher volume of annual plan renewals. The increase for the nine months ended September 27, 2026 was also attributable to non-recurring engineering services revenue associated with our strategic partners.
Products revenue decreased by $6.4 million or 10.8% for the three months ended September 27, 2026, compared with the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by the decline in device shipments and the reduction in average selling prices (“ASPs”) for our products sold through retail channels as we continued promotional activities to stimulate household acquisition and subscriber growth, partially offset by lower sales incentives and sales returns in retail channels, both of which are recorded as reductions of revenue.
Products revenue increased by $15.3 million or 9.5% for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared with the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by higher product shipments to our largest customer in EMEA, reflecting stronger customer demand, as well as lower sales incentives and sales returns in retail channels, both of which are recorded as reductions of revenue. The increase was partially offset by lower ASPs for our products sold through retail channels as we continued promotional activities to stimulate household acquisition and subscriber growth.
31
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue consists of both subscriptions and services cost as well as products cost. Subscriptions and services cost consists of costs attributable to the provision and maintenance of our cloud-based platform, including personnel expense, data storage, security and computing, IT and facilities overhead, and amortization of software development. Products cost primarily consists of the cost of finished products from our third-party manufacturers and overhead costs, including personnel expense for operations staff, purchasing, product planning, inventory control, warehousing and distribution logistics, third-party software licensing fees, inbound freight, duty and tariff costs, IT and facilities overhead, warranty costs associated with returned goods, write-downs for excess and obsolete inventory and excess components, and royalties to third parties.
Our cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue can vary based upon a number of factors, including those that may affect our revenue set forth above and factors that may affect our cost of revenue, including, without limitation, product mix, sales channel mix, registered accounts’ acceptance of paid subscription service offerings, and changes in our cost of goods sold due to fluctuations in prices paid for components, net of vendor rebates, cloud platform costs, warranty and overhead costs, inbound freight, duty and tariff costs, and charges for excess or obsolete inventory. More recently, constraints in the memory supply market have resulted in increased memory costs, and such costs may continue to adversely affect our products cost and gross margin. We outsource our manufacturing, warehousing, and distribution logistics. We also outsource certain components of the required infrastructure to support our cloud-based back-end IT infrastructure. We believe this outsourcing strategy generally allows us to better manage our products cost and subscriptions and services cost and gross margin and allows us to adapt to changing market dynamics and supply chain constraints. However, with respect to manufacturing that we have outsourced to ex-U.S. manufacturers, our ability to manage product costs through this strategy has been, and may continue to be, negatively impacted by tariffs.

Subscriptions and services cost of revenue increased by 46.6% and 36.7% for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, respectively, compared with the prior year periods.

Products cost of revenue decreased by 12.7% for the three months ended September 27, 2026, compared with the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by tariff refunds of $6.3 million recorded as a reduction of cost of revenue coupled with lower freight-in costs resulting from increased use of ocean freight, partially offset by higher inventory reserves as we head into a higher promotional holiday season.
Product cost of revenue increased 2.2% for the nine months ended September 27, 2026, compared with the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by higher component costs attributable to AI-driven demand and a constrained memory supply market, coupled with higher inventory reserves for promotional holiday-season sales, partially offset by tariff refunds of $14.2 million coupled with lower freight-in costs resulting from increased use of ocean freight.

**Percentage change not meaningful.
Subscriptions and services gross profit increased by $10.3 million and $38.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, respectively, compared with the prior year periods. The increases were primarily driven by growth in subscriptions and services revenue, partially offset by higher subscriptions and services cost of revenue as we continued investing in platform services to support subscription-based business growth and improve customer experience.
Products gross profit increased by $2.6 million and $11.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, respectively, compared with the prior year periods. Product gross profit was favorably impacted by tariff refunds of $6.3 million and $14.2 million recorded as a reduction of cost of revenue for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026, respectively. These increases were partially offset by lower ASPs for our products sold through retail channels as we continued promotional activities to stimulate household acquisition and subscriber growth, as well as higher inventory valuation adjustments as we head into a higher promotional holiday season.
Operating Expenses
Research and Development
Research and development expense consists primarily of personnel-related expense, safety, security, regulatory services and testing, other research and development consulting fees, and allocated IT and facilities overhead. Generally, we recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred, exclusive of capitalized software development costs. We have invested in and expanded our research and development organization to enhance our ability to introduce innovative products and services. We expect research and development expense to increase in absolute dollars as we develop new product and service offerings and compete for engineering talent. We believe that innovation and technological leadership are critical to our future success, and we are committed to continuing a significant level of research and development to develop new technologies, products and services, including our hardware devices, cloud-based software, AI-based algorithms, and machine learning capabilities.

Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of personnel expense for sales and marketing staff, technical support expense, advertising, trade shows, media and placement, corporate communications and other marketing expense, product marketing expense, allocated IT and facilities overhead, outbound freight costs, and credit card processing fees. We expect our sales and marketing expense to increase in the future as we invest in marketing to drive demand for our subscriptions and services and devices.

Sales and marketing expense increased by $8.0 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the prior year period, primarily due to increases of $1.7 million in stock-based compensation as a result of the achievement of certain performance-based equity award targets, $1.5 million in payroll-related compensation which was driven by headcount growth, $1.4 million in professional services as we continued to invest in customer experience improvements, $1.4 million in marketing expenditures, $0.9 million in credit card and in-app processing fees which was driven by an increase in paid accounts and focused efforts to improve the customer app experience, $0.7 million in IT and facilities overhead related to allocations associated with corporate infrastructure, and $0.4 million in freight-out expenses.
34
General and Administrative
General and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel-related expense for certain executives, finance and accounting, investor relations, human resources, legal, information technology, professional fees, allocated IT and facilities overhead, strategic initiatives expense, and other general corporate expense. We expect our general and administrative expense to fluctuate as a percentage of our revenue in future periods based on fluctuations in our revenue and the timing of such expense.

During the third fiscal quarter of 2025, we entered into a termination agreement for our office lease located in San Jose, California and recorded the derecognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities and a gain of $4.1 million upon the termination.
During the first fiscal quarter of 2026, we sold our strategic long-term investment. Upon completion of the sale, we received total cash proceeds of $18.9 million and recognized a realized gain of $6.4 million, representing the excess of proceeds received over the carrying value of the investment.
Interest income, net decreased for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to declines in interest rates and investment balances.

Provision for Income Taxes

| Effective tax rate | 60.8 | % | 2.2 | % | 10.4 | % | 4.2 | % | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 27, 2026 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to cumulative research and development tax credit adjustments recorded in the quarter ended September 27, 2026 and the lower pre-tax income, which magnified the effect of discrete and non-deductible items on the rate. These increases were partially offset by earnings in foreign jurisdictions subject to lower tax rates and the continued impact of the valuation allowance. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 27, 2026 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to earnings generated in lower-tax foreign jurisdictions and the continued impact of valuation allowances recorded against substantially all of our U.S. deferred tax assets and certain foreign tax attributes.
Although we have recently generated cumulative pre-tax income, we determined that we have not yet demonstrated a sustained level of profitability sufficient to support realization of the deferred tax assets. We also considered forecasted future taxable income; however, such projections are inherently uncertain and do not outweigh the available negative evidence. Based on the totality of evidence, we concluded that it is not more-likely-than-not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been maintained as of September 27, 2026. There is a reasonable possibility that within the next few quarters, sufficient positive evidence will become available to reach a conclusion that all or a significant portion of the valuation allowance against our U.S. net deferred tax assets would no longer be required.
36
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 27, 2026, our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $144.0 million and our unused borrowing capacity was $45.0 million based on the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. The proceeds of the borrowings under this credit facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
We have a history of losses and may incur operating and net losses in the future. As of September 27, 2026, our accumulated deficit was $364.3 million. Historically, we have funded our principal business activities through cash flows generated from operations and available cash on hand.
Material Cash Requirements
We believe that our existing sources of liquidity will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for at least the next 12 months and beyond. However, in the future we may require or desire additional funds to support our operating expenses and capital requirements. To the extent that current and anticipated future sources of liquidity are insufficient, we may seek to raise additional funds through public or private equity. We have no commitments to obtain such additional financing and cannot provide assurance that additional financing will be available at all or, if available, that such financing would be obtainable on terms favorable to us and would not be dilutive.
Our future liquidity and cash requirements may vary from those currently planned and will depend on numerous factors, including the introduction of new products, the growth in our subscriptions and services revenue, the ability to increase our gross margin dollars, as well as cost optimization initiatives and controls over our operating expenditures. As we grow our installed base and related cost structure, there will be a need for additional working capital, hence, we may increase our product and subscription rates in the future.
Operating leases and contractual commitments
Our operating lease obligations mostly include offices, equipment, and distribution centers. Our contractual commitments are primarily inventory-related purchase obligations with suppliers.
Legal contingencies
We are, and from time to time, we may become involved in disputes, litigation, and other legal actions in the ordinary course of business. At each reporting period, we evaluate whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under the provisions of the authoritative guidance that addresses accounting for contingencies. Significant judgment is required to determine both the probability and the estimated amount of loss. In such cases, we accrue for the amount or, if a range, we accrue the low end of the range, only if there is not a better estimate than any other amount within the range, as litigation reserves in other operating expense on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.
Refer to Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for further information about our operating leases, purchase obligations, and legal contingencies.
Stock repurchase program
On February 3, 2026, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of shares, which commenced in March 2026 and is expected to continue through December 31, 2027 unless extended or shortened by the Board of Directors. During the nine months ended September 27, 2026, we repurchased and subsequently retired 3.3 million shares of Arlo common stock for an aggregate repurchase of $44.0 million. As of September 27, 2026, $6.0 million remained available and authorized for future repurchases.

| Net cash used in financing activities | (42,460) | (24,544) | |||||||||
| Net cash increase (decrease) | $ | (64,933) | $ | 3,980 | |||||||
Operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared with the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by improved profitability offset by unfavorable working capital movements, including the decrease in accounts payable balances mainly due to timing of payments, higher inventory purchases and lower accounts receivable balance primarily due to strong collections.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased by $51.6 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared with the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to cash paid for business acquisitions and lower net proceeds from available-for-sale securities, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of a strategic investment.
Financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities increased by $17.9 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2026 compared with the prior year period, primarily due to higher repurchases of common stock.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
For a complete description of what we believe to be the critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the nine months ended September 27, 2026, other than as discussed in Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements, in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report.
38
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
During the nine months ended September 27, 2026, there were no material changes to our market risk disclosures as set forth in Part II, Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Item 4.Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on this evaluation, our management, including our CEO and our CFO, has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were, in design and operation, effective at the reasonable assurance level. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within an organization have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.Legal Proceedings
We are, and from time to time, we may become involved in disputes, litigation and other legal actions in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently party to any claim or proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors. For additional discussion of certain risks associated with legal proceedings, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report.
Item 1A.Risk Factors
Our business, reputation, results of operations and financial condition, as well as the price of our stock, can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including those described in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 under the heading “Risk Factors.” During the nine months ended September 27, 2026, there have been no significant changes to the risk factors under the heading “Risk Factors” described in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

_________________________
(1) On February 3, 2026, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program of up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of shares of our common stock through open market purchases in a manner deemed to be in the best interests of our company and stockholders, considering the economic cost and prevailing market conditions, including the relative trading prices and volumes of our common stock. The stock repurchase program is expected to continue through December 31, 2027, unless extended or shortened by the Board of Directors.
(2) Average price paid per share includes commission costs, but excludes the 1% excise tax accrued on our share repurchases as a result of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Commission costs associated with share repurchases and excise taxes do not reduce the remaining authorized amount under our repurchase programs. As of September 27, 2026, $6.0 million remained available and authorized for future repurchases.
