Robinhood Markets, Inc. (HOOD)

Through these efforts, we believe we have made investing culturally relevant and understandable, and that our platforms enable our customers to become long-term investors and take greater control of their finances. At Robinhood, our values are in service of our customers. Our customers are why we exist. That is why we put what’s best for our customers at the center of our decision-making in order to bring them the best technology coupled with real value. That is why at Robinhood, we push for progress without compromising quality. We also take our responsibility for our customers’ finances seriously.

We know that trust is hard earned and easily lost and that is why we prioritize compliance, approach risk thoughtfully, and never compromise trust for speed. Additionally, we consider ourselves to be One Robinhood where we are all invested in the same mission. We invite contrary perspectives, support each other, and debate with energy and kindness. Once decisions are made, we move in unison with ownership and accountability, powered by the thrill of building something great together. We are also innovators and problem solvers. Our bold bets often make us a first mover, and we do what's right for customers - even if it hasn’t been done before.

We also strive to do more with less. To that end, constraint drives us to innovate through scalable technology - not excess resources. Finally, we started a movement, breaking barriers so everyone - not just the wealthy - can access the financial system. Our job to “democratize finance for all” may never be complete as we seek to level the playing field - which is what makes what Robinhood does so fun. Our Products And Features We understand that millions of our customers have used Robinhood to enter the financial markets for the first time, and we take our responsibility to them seriously. We are passionate about operating Robinhood in a way that aligns with customer interests, applicable regulations, and with our own mission to democratize finance for all.

We continue to create an ecosystem of financial products and services that will enable people across the world to become investors. We believe our products can transform the 8 relationship people have with the financial system and that the products on our roadmap will go a long way toward making that a reality. We began by offering our customers the ability to buy and sell equities on a mobile-first platform and have since continued to expand our offerings to add new asset classes, products and features, while also growing internationally to better serve our customers. We designed our mobile platform to be an elegant, intuitive investing interface that provides our customers with trading functionality and market information such as historical prices, valuation multiples, recent news, analyst ratings, advanced charts, and more, at no additional cost.

Robinhood Legend, built specifically for active traders, is a powerful, sleek browser-based desktop trading platform that is fully customizable and available at no additional cost to all U.S. and U.K. customers with a Robinhood account. Robinhood Legend now supports all major asset classes and we have committed to continue expanding its capabilities. […]

In addition to total net revenues, net income, and other results under GAAP, we utilize non-GAAP calculations of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to Robinhood, excluding (i) net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests, (ii) interest expenses related to debt obligations, (iii) provision for (benefit from) income taxes, (iv) depreciation and amortization, (v) SBC, (vi) significant legal and tax settlements and reserves, and (vii) other significant gains, losses, and expenses (such as impairments, restructuring charges, and business acquisition- or disposition-related expenses) that we believe are not indicative of our ongoing results. This non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other […]

Other sources of future funds may include potential borrowing under our revolving lines of credit and potential issuance of new debt or equity. Our liquidity needs are primarily to support and invest in our core business, including investing in new ways to serve our customers, potentially seeking strategic acquisitions to leverage existing capabilities and further build our business, and for general capital needs (including capital requirements imposed by regulators and SROs and cash deposit and collateral requirements under the rules of the DTC, the NSCC, OCC, and the CFTC. Based on our current level of operations, we believe our primary sources of liquidity will be adequate to meet our current liquidity needs for the next 12 months.

• 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. • We have been subject to regulatory investigations, actions, and settlements and we expect to continue to be subject to such proceedings in the future, which could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our business practices in a materially adverse manner. • We are involved in numerous litigation matters that are expensive and time consuming, and, if resolved adversely, could expose us to significant liability and reputational harm.
