Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Operating margin = operating income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2025 revenue ÷ FY2024 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2026 (“Annual Report”). In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based upon current plans, expectations, and beliefs that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including but not limited to those discussed in “Risk Factors” under Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report.

Overview

Life360 is a leading technology platform used to locate the people, pets, and things that matter most to families. Life360 is creating a new category at the intersection of family, technology, and safety to help keep families connected and safe. Our core offering, the Life360 mobile application, includes features that range from communications to driving safety and location sharing. The Life360 mobile application operates under a “freemium” model where its core offering is available to members at no charge, with additional membership subscription options that are available but not required. We also generate revenue through hardware subscription services and the sale of hardware tracking devices. By offering devices and integrated software to members, we have expanded our addressable market to provide members of all ages with a vertically integrated, cross-platform solution of scale. We also generate advertising revenue through the placement of third-party advertisements on our platform and across third-party publisher networks through our advertising technology platform, and other revenue through partnerships and the sale of aggregated, non-personally identifiable data for data insight purposes.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

We believe that our results of operations are affected by a number of factors, such as: the ability to remain a trusted brand; attracting, retaining, and converting members; maintaining efficient member acquisition; the ability to attract new and repeat purchasers of our hardware tracking devices; growth in Average Revenue per Paying Circle (“ARPPC”); expanding the offerings on our platform; attracting and retaining talent; seasonality; international expansion; and growth and monetization of advertising offerings. We discuss each of these factors in more detail under the heading “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Key Factors Affecting Our Performance” in our Annual Report. While we do not have control of all factors affecting our results of operations, we work diligently to influence and manage those factors which we can impact to enhance our results of operations.

Key Components of Our Results of Operations

The following discussion describes certain line items in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Revenue

Subscription Revenue

We generate revenue primarily from sales of subscriptions on our platform, including Life360 and Tile. Revenue is recognized ratably over the related contractual term generally beginning on the date that our platform is made available to a customer. Our subscription agreements typically have monthly or annual contractual terms. Our agreements are generally non-cancellable during the contract term. We typically bill in advance for monthly and annual contracts. Amounts that have been billed are initially recorded as deferred revenue until the revenue is recognized.

Hardware Revenue

We generate our hardware revenue from the sale of hardware tracking devices and related accessories. For hardware and accessories, revenue is recognized at the time products are delivered. We sell hardware tracking devices and accessories through a number of channels including our website and online retail.

Table of Contents

Advertising Revenue

Advertising revenue consists of fees earned from the placement of third-party advertisements across our own properties and third-party publisher networks. We generate advertising revenue through both direct relationships with brands and advertisers as well as through programmatic advertising networks. Advertisements are displayed to users in the form of in-app display advertisements and sponsored placements. Advertising revenue is driven primarily by the number of impressions delivered and the rates at which those impressions are sold.

Other Revenue

Other revenue consists of data and partnership revenue. We generate data revenue primarily through an arrangement with a key data partner that provides location-based analytics to customers in the retail and real estate sectors, municipalities, and other private and public organizations. The agreement permits commercialization of certain aggregated and de-identified data and provides for fixed and variable monthly revenue amounts. We generate partnership revenue through agreements with third parties which grant them access to anonymized data insights or through the recognition of revenue related to a warrant to purchase common stock of a related party (“Related Party Warrant”).

Cost of Revenue and Gross Margin

Cost of Subscription Revenue

Cost of subscription revenue primarily consists of expenses related to hosting our services and providing support to our free and paying subscribers. These expenses include personnel-related costs associated with our cloud-based infrastructure and our customer support organization, third-party hosting fees, software and maintenance costs, outside services associated with the delivery of our subscription services, amortization of acquired intangibles and internally developed software, allocated overhead, such as facilities, including rent, utilities, depreciation on equipment shared by all departments, credit card and transaction processing fees, and shared information technology costs. Personnel-related expenses include salaries, bonuses, benefits, and stock-based compensation for operations personnel.

We plan to continue increasing the capacity and enhancing the capability and reliability of our infrastructure to support member growth and increased use of our platform. We expect that cost of revenue will increase in absolute dollars in future periods.

Cost of Hardware Revenue

Cost of hardware revenue consists of product costs, including hardware production, contract manufacturers for production, shipping and handling, packaging, fulfillment, personnel-related expenses, manufacturing and equipment depreciation, warehousing, tariff costs, customer support costs, credit card and transaction processing fees, warranty replacement, write-downs of excess and obsolete inventory, amortization of acquired intangibles, and allocated overhead, such as facilities, including rent and utilities, and shared information technology costs. Personnel-related expenses include salaries, bonuses, benefits, and stock-based compensation for operations personnel.

Cost of Advertising Revenue

Cost of advertising revenue includes cloud-based hosting costs supporting our advertising technology platform, amortization of acquired intangibles and internally-developed software, third-party data and content licensing costs, personnel-related costs, and allocated overhead, such as facilities, including rent and utilities, and shared information technology costs. For advertising revenue recognized on a gross basis, cost of advertising revenue includes traffic acquisition costs, which represent amounts paid to third-party publishers for advertising placements and inventory access. Personnel-related expenses include salaries, bonuses, benefits, and stock-based compensation for advertising operations personnel.

Cost of Other Revenue

Cost of other revenue includes cloud-based hosting costs as well as costs of product operations functions and personnel-related costs associated with our data platforms.

Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin

Our gross profit has been, and may in the future be, influenced by several factors, including timing of capital expenditures and related depreciation expense, increases in infrastructure costs, component costs, tariffs, contract manufacturing and supplier pricing, and foreign currency exchange rates. Gross profit and gross profit margin may fluctuate over time based on the factors described above.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses consist of research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses.

Research and Development

Our research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs for our engineering, product, and design teams, material costs of building and developing prototypes for new products, mobile app development, and allocated overhead. We believe that continued investment in our platform is important for our growth. We intend to continue to invest in research and development to bring new customer experiences and devices to market and expand our platform capabilities.

Sales and Marketing

Our sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of commissions to our third-party platforms (each a “Channel Partner”), personnel-related costs, brand marketing costs, lead generation costs, growth media and other marketing spend to support strategic initiatives, sales incentives, sponsorships, amortization of acquired intangibles, bad debt expense, and allocated overhead. Commission payments to Channel Partners in connection with annual subscription sales of our mobile application on third-party store platforms are considered to be incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and are expensed as incurred or deferred and amortized over an estimated period of benefit of three years depending on the subscription type.

We plan to continue to invest in sales and marketing to grow our member base and increase our brand awareness, including marketing efforts to continue to drive our business model. We expect that sales and marketing expenses will increase in absolute dollars in future periods and will fluctuate as a percentage of revenue. The trend and timing of sales and marketing expenses will depend in part on the timing of marketing campaigns.

General and Administrative

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of employee-related costs for our legal, finance, human resources, and other administrative teams, as well as certain executive officers. In addition, general and administrative expenses include allocated overhead, outside legal, accounting, and other professional fees, and non-income-based taxes. We expect general and administrative expenses will increase in absolute dollars as our business grows.

Other Income (Expense)

Gain (loss) on Change in Fair Value of Investments

The Company measures certain non-marketable equity securities and warrant investments at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with ASC 321, Investment - Equity Securities. In April 2025, the SAFE investment in a related party (the “Related Party SAFE”) converted into shares of preferred stock (the “Related Party Investment”), as a result of an observable price change. Additionally, the Company measures and reports certain assets at fair value each reporting period.

In May 2025, we entered into a series of transactions with Aura Consolidated Group, Inc. (“Aura”), which included a convertible note investment into Aura (“Convertible Note Investment”). We elected to apply the fair value option in accordance with ASC 825, Financial Instruments.

Life360 is a leading technology platform used to locate the people, pets, and things that matter most to families. Life360 is creating a new category at the intersection of family, technology, and safety to help keep families connected and safe. Our core offering, the Life360 mobile application, includes features that range from communications to driving safety and location sharing. The Life360 mobile application operates under a “freemium” model where its core offering is available to members at no charge, with three membership subscription options that are available but not required.

We also generate other revenue from partnerships, including through the placement of ads within our platform, and the sale of aggregated, non-personally identifiable data for data insight purposes.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we generated:

•Total revenues of $489.5 million and $371.5 million, respectively, representing year-over-year growth of 32%;

•Subscription revenues of $369.3 million and $277.8 million, respectively, representing year-over-year growth of 33%;

•Hardware revenues of $51.8 million and $57.6 million, respectively, representing year-over-year decline of 10%;

•Gross profit of $380.8 million and $279.2 million, respectively, representing year-over-year growth of 36%;

•Net income of $150.8 million and net loss of $4.6 million, respectively; and

•Operating cash flows of $88.6 million and $32.6 million, respectively.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

As we focus on growing our customers and revenue, and achieving profitability while investing for the future and managing risk, expenses and capital, the following factors and others identified in the section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K titled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” have been important to our business and we expect them to impact our operations in future periods:

Ability to Retain Trusted Brand. We strongly believe in our vision to become the indispensable safety membership for families, with a suite of safety services that span every life stage of the family. Our business model and future success are dependent on the value and reputation of the Life360 and Tile by Life360, Inc. (“Tile”) brands. Our brand is trusted by approximately 96 million members as of December 31, 2025, and because we know the value of trust is immeasurable, we will continue to work tirelessly to provide useful, reliable, trustworthy, and innovative products and services.

Attract, Retain, and Convert Members. Our business model is based on attracting new members to our platform, converting free members to subscribers, and retaining and expanding subscriptions over time. Our continued success depends in part on our ability to offer compelling new products and features to our members, and to continue providing a quality user experience to convert and retain paying subscribers. We will also seek to increase brand awareness and customer adoption of our platform through various programs and digital and broad-scale advertising.

Maintaining Efficient Member Acquisition. Our investment in developing effective services and devices creates an efficient member acquisition model which drives strong unit economics. Our member acquisition model is complemented by our word-of-mouth and freemium models. We accelerate our organic member acquisition with strategic and targeted paid marketing spend. We expect to continue to invest in product and marketing, while balancing growth with strong unit economics. As we continue to expand internationally, we may increase our targeted marketing investments.

Ability to Attract New and Repeat Purchasers of Our Hardware Tracking Devices. Attracting new and repeat purchasers depends on our ability to design and release compelling smart trackers and market them effectively. Additionally we face increasing competition from better funded global companies. We pioneered the finding category and we continue to invest in the development of hardware products, assessing new and existing technologies with a priority on providing a great member finding experience.

Growth in Average Revenue Per Paying Circle. Our business model is dependent upon our ability to grow and maintain a large member base, including growing the number of Paying Circles. We have a sophisticated understanding of our members, and as a result, the services we provide are core to families and hard to switch. We continue to develop new monetization features leveraging our core technologies to offer additional services, expand into more stages of families and enter new verticals to increase adoption. Many factors will affect the Average Revenue per Paying Circle (“ARPPC”) including the number of Paying Circles, mix of monetization offerings on our platform, as well as demographic shifts and geographic differences across these variables.

Expanding the Offerings on Our Platform. We are continually evaluating new product offerings that are aligned with our core competencies and the needs of families across the life stage continuum. For example, our acquisition of Tile gave our members the ability to seamlessly leverage Bluetooth wireless technology enabled smart trackers, which can equip nearly any item—such as wallets, keys or remotes—with location-based finding technology. In addition, the launch of our Life360 Pet GPS trackers in October 2025 enables families to seamlessly monitor the location of pets directly within the Life360 mobile application. We will continue to invest in and launch products where we see opportunities to grow our platform.

Attracting and Retaining Talent. We compete for talent in the technology industry. Our business relies on the ability to attract and retain talent, including engineers, data scientists, designers and software developers. As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately 547 full-time employees and approximately 95 contractors. Our core values are aimed at simplifying safety for families and we believe there are people who want to work at a values-driven company like Life360. We believe that our ability to recruit talent is aided by our reputation.

Seasonality. We experience seasonality in our member growth, engagement, Paying Circles growth, and monetization on our platform. Life360 has historically experienced member and subscription growth in the U.S. in the third quarter of each calendar year, driven by the back to school period for many of our members. Hardware sales have historically experienced comparatively higher seasonal growth in the fourth quarter of each calendar year, which includes the important selling periods in November and December largely driven by holiday demand. As the majority of revenue is generated within the U.S., our seasonality primarily relates to U.S. events. Accordingly, an unexpected decrease in sales over those traditionally high-volume selling periods may impact our revenue, result in surplus inventory, and could have a disproportionate effect on our operating results for the entire fiscal year. Seasonality in our business can also be affected by introductions of new or enhanced products and services, including the costs associated with such introductions.

International Expansion. We believe our global opportunity is significant, and to address this opportunity, we intend to continue to invest in sales and marketing efforts, infrastructure, and personnel to support our international expansion. Our growth will depend in part on the adoption and sales of our products and services in international markets.

Growth and Monetization of Advertising Offerings. Advertising represents an additional revenue opportunity for our business, and our ability to grow and effectively monetize our advertising offerings will impact our operating results. Our success in this area will depend on our ability to successfully integrate acquired technology, operations, and personnel, scale advertiser demand, maintain advertiser relationships, and balance monetization opportunities with a positive member experience. Advertising revenue may also be affected by macroeconomic conditions, changes in advertiser spending, competition, and evolving privacy and data protection regulations.

Key Components of Our Results of Operations

The following discussion describes certain line items in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Revenue

The Company generates revenue from direct and indirect streams. Direct revenue includes subscription and hardware revenue, while indirect revenue consists of all other revenue sources, such as data and partnership, which includes advertising.

Subscription Revenue

We generate revenue primarily from sales of subscriptions on our platform, including Life360 and Tile. Revenue is recognized ratably over the related contractual term generally beginning on the date that our platform is made available to a customer. Our subscription agreements typically have monthly or annual contractual terms. Our agreements are generally non-cancellable during the contract term. We typically bill in advance for monthly and annual contracts. Amounts that have been billed are initially recorded as deferred revenue until the revenue is recognized.

Hardware Revenue

We generate our hardware revenue from the sale of hardware tracking devices and related accessories. For hardware and accessories, revenue is recognized at the time products are delivered. We sell hardware tracking devices and accessories through a number of channels including our website, brick and mortar retail, and online retail.

Other Revenue

Other revenue consists of data and partnership revenue, which includes advertising revenue. We generate data revenue primarily through an arrangement with a key data partner that provides location-based analytics to customers in the retail and real estate sectors, municipalities, and other private and public organizations. The agreement permits commercialization of certain aggregated and de-identified data and provides for fixed and variable monthly revenue amounts. We generate partnership revenue through agreements with third parties which grant them access to anonymized data insights or advertisin
