Financial Outlook

First quarter 2026:
Revenue in the range of $193 to $197 million
Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $11 to $15 million
Full year 2026:
Revenue in the range of $805 to $815 million
Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $70 to $76 million, representing an annual Adjusted EBITDA Margin target of approximately 9.0% at the midpoint of the full year ranges

Coursera’s Financial Outlook for its first quarter and full year 2026 has been provided on a standalone basis. Actual results may differ materially from Coursera’s Financial Outlook as a result of, among other things, the factors described under “Special Note on Forward-Looking Statements” below.

A reconciliation of our non-GAAP guidance measure (Adjusted EBITDA) to the corresponding GAAP guidance measure is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation expense-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in the financial statement tables for our historical non-GAAP financial results included in this press release.

Conference Call Details

As previously announced, Coursera will hold a conference call to discuss its fourth quarter and full year 2025 performance today, February 5, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time (5:00 p.m. Eastern Time).

A live, audio-only webcast of the conference call and earnings release materials will be available to the public on our Investor Relations page at investor.coursera.com. For those unable to listen to the broadcast live, an archived replay will be accessible in the same location for one year.

Key Business Metrics Definitions

Registered Learners

We count the total number of registered learners at the end of each period. For purposes of determining our registered learner count, we treat each customer account that registers with a unique email as a registered learner and adjust for any spam, test accounts, and cancellations. Our registered learner count is not intended as a measure of active engagement. New registered learners are individuals that register in a particular period.

Paid Enterprise Customers

We count the total number of Paid Enterprise Customers that are active on our platform at the end of each period. For purposes of determining our customer count, we treat each customer account that has a corresponding contract as a unique customer, and a single organization with multiple divisions, segments, or subsidiaries may be counted as multiple customers. We define a “Paid Enterprise Customer” as a customer who purchases Coursera via our direct sales force. For purposes of determining our Paid Enterprise Customer count, we exclude our Enterprise customers who do not purchase Coursera via our direct sales force, including organizations engaging on our platform through our Coursera for Teams offering or through our channel partners.

Net Retention Rate (“NRR”) for Paid Enterprise Customers

We calculate annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) by annualizing each customer’s monthly recurring revenue (“MRR”) for the most recent month at period end. We calculate “Net Retention Rate” for a period by starting with the ARR from all Paid Enterprise Customers as of the 12 months prior to such period end, or Prior Period ARR. We then calculate the ARR from these same Paid Enterprise Customers as of the current period end, or “Current Period ARR”. Current Period ARR includes expansion within Paid Enterprise Customers and is net of contraction or attrition over the trailing 12 months but excludes revenue from new Paid Enterprise Customers in the current period. We then divide the total Current Period ARR by the total Prior Period ARR to arrive at our Net Retention Rate for Paid Enterprise Customers.

Exhibit 99.1
Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release includes non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Free Cash Flow, each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure. These are key measures used by our management to help us analyze our financial results, establish budgets and operational goals for managing our business, evaluate our performance, and make strategic decisions. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. In addition, we believe these measures are useful for period-to-period comparisons of our business. We also believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core business and results of operations over multiple periods with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors, and to analyze our cash performance. However, the non-GAAP financial measures presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the way that these measures are calculated. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered as a substitute for or in isolation from financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools.

Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Profit Margin, Non-GAAP Net Income, and Non-GAAP Net Income Per Share

We define non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP net income as GAAP gross profit and GAAP net loss excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) amortization of stock-based compensation expense capitalized as internal-use software costs; (3) payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation; (4) merger and acquisition (“M&A”) related transaction costs; (5) costs and settlement (gains) losses related to significant and non-recurring legal and regulatory matters, net of insurance recoveries; and (6) restructuring related charges. Non-GAAP gross profit margin reflects non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of revenue. Non-GAAP net income per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by the diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

We define Adjusted EBITDA as our GAAP net loss excluding: (1) depreciation and amortization; (2) interest income, net; (3) income tax expense; (4) other (income) expense, net; (5) stock-based compensation expense; (6) payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation; (7) M&A related transaction costs; (8) costs and settlement (gains) losses related to significant and non-recurring legal and regulatory matters, net of insurance recoveries; and (9) restructuring related charges. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

Free Cash Flow

We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities, less capitalized internal-use software costs, purchases of content assets, and purchases of property, equipment, and software as we consider these capital expenditures necessary to support our ongoing operations.

We believe the presentation of these adjusted operating results provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis and comparison of our operating results across reporting periods.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the Appendix.

To our shareholders, Q4 2025 Shareholder Letter 3 Coursera is reporting a strong fourth quarter and year of progress. In 2025, we focused on a clear set of priorities to build a more durable foundation for long-term growth: sharpening our execution, refining how we operate, and embedding faster, AI-native product innovation and data-driven decision making across the business. The past year marked the early phase of this work, and as the quarters progressed, we began to demonstrate tangible progress reflected in our results. For full year 2025, we grew revenue to $757 million, an increase of 9% year over year, more than doubling the four percent growth rate we shared in our initial April outlook. Net cash provided by operating activities was $109 million, up 14% year over year, and we generated a record $78 million of Free Cash Flow, up 32% over the prior year. Our results reflect a more focused, disciplined company that is translating strategy into faster execution. Growth was driven by both of our operating segments and led by continued momentum in our Consumer segment, with revenue increasing 12% year over year in the fourth quarter. This strength reflects improved execution across our core subscription and course offerings, supported by enhanced marketing, localization, and subscription capabilities, including Coursera Plus. We also welcomed a record 6.8 million new registered learners in Q4, the highest fourth-quarter additions in Coursera’s history, and more than 29 million learners over the full year. In December, we announced an agreement to combine with Udemy, a company and team we have long admired. This transaction is an important step in accelerating our strategy. By bringing together two highly complementary platforms, operating models, and cultures, we believe we can meaningfully increase our collective ability to invest, innovate, and execute at scale, offer greater value and choice to customers, and enhance our ability to address the global skilling opportunity. As we enter a new year, we are providing our initial guidance for the first quarter and full year 2026 on a standalone basis, detailed in the outlook section of this letter. For the full year, we expect revenue to be in the range of $805 to $815 million, representing growth of approximately 6% to 8% year over year. For Adjusted EBITDA, we expect a range of $70 to $76 million, representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of approximately 9% at the midpoint of the full year ranges. Our core growth priorities remain unchanged in 2026: Our efforts over the past year represent an important step forward as we continue to build a more agile, focused, and capable company. As we progress through the regulatory and shareholder approval processes related to the proposed combination with Udemy, we look forward to providing updates in the coming months. In the meantime, we remain focused on execution, enhancing Coursera’s ecosystem and the infrastructure that powers it to better serve our learners, customers, and instructors. Greg Hart President and Chief Executive Officer Coursera results for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2025. Numbers are rounded for presentation purposes. Refer to the Outlook section for a complete discussion of Q1 and full year 2026 guidance. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the Appendix. Reconciliations are not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation expense- related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change.

Recently, we launched our first courses with Anthropic, one of our newest partners, designed to give learners hands-on experience with Claude while building the skills needed to collaborate effectively with AI.

Over the past year, we have been focused on accelerating our ability to deliver more valuable experiences to learners and customers, while enhancing the value of our business by driving improvements in our conversion, engagement, and retention metrics over time. Learner journey Learners come to Coursera with a clear purpose: to build skills that help them advance their careers and adapt in a rapidly evolving labor market. In 2025, we made meaningful progress in refining the learner journey on Coursera, with improvements across search, discovery, and merchandising designed to better attract, convert, and retain learners. The scale and data of our platform create opportunities for more personalized and contextual guidance, allowing us to tailor content, language, and recommended pathways to support the career needs of learners across regions, roles, and levels of skill mastery. Over the past several months, we made targeted enhancements across the platform, including redesigning our homepage to improve how learners first experience Coursera and navigate through our funnel. We also launched new geo-pricing, marketing, and promotional capabilities to better serve our growing international learner base, with early indicators supporting paid conversion and Coursera Plus adoption. In Q4, we continued to experiment with natural language search, AI-powered discovery, and learner motivation, applying faster testing and iteration to improve relevance and drive stronger engagement over time. Search is fundamentally changing, and we intend to be at the forefront of understanding, experimenting, and shaping how learners discover and start their journey, leveraging the strengths that have drawn 197 million learners to our platform over the last decade.

Restructuring related cash payments made during the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $0 and $2.7 million, respectively.

Revenue Over the course of 2025, we strengthened Coursera’s operating model with early improvements in execution, go-to- market capabilities, and product innovation intended to drive long-term growth. Fourth quarter revenue grew 10% year over year to $196.9 million, and full year revenue increased 9% year over year to $757.5 million. Growth was driven by both operating segments and led by momentum in Consumer, which expanded from mid-single-digit growth at the beginning of the year to 12% year over year growth in Q4. This strength has been driven by Coursera Plus subscription adoption, ongoing platform improvements, and localized pricing, payment, and promotional capabilities.

Q4 2025 Shareholder Letter 11 Gross profit GAAP gross profit was $106.8 million, up 12% year-over-year. This represented a 54% gross profit margin, up 90 basis points from the prior year period. Non-GAAP gross profit was $108.8 million, up 12% year-over-year. This represented a non-GAAP gross profit margin of 55%, up 90 basis points year-over-year and driven primarily by continued improvement in our Consumer segment, reflecting higher learner engagement with newer content created under more favorable production arrangements. These arrangements typically feature lower revenue share and content costs, reflecting the growing role our technology and authoring capabilities play in enabling high-quality learning experiences at scale. Over time, we believe Coursera’s product-led capabilities can deliver more value to our learners, customers, and instructors, while driving more favorable unit economics and long-term structural benefits. Coursera results for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2025. Percentages refer to year-over-year change, unless otherwise specified, and figures may be rounded for presentation purposes.

Non- GAAP operating expenses were $103.2 million, or 52% of revenue, consistent with the prior year period. We continued to maintain a disciplined approach to our operating framework, pacing our investments in R&D and go-to-market capabilities to drive sustainable growth and improve long-term operating leverage.

Net income (loss) We have demonstrated disciplined cost management, including pacing our investments with the trajectory of our top- line over time. In the fourth quarter, GAAP net loss was $(26.8) million, or (13.6)% of revenue.1 Non-GAAP net income was $11.1 million, or 5.6% of revenue. Q4 2025 Shareholder Letter 12 Coursera results for the periods reported January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2025. Figures may be rounded for presentation purposes. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the Appendix. 1. Includes $11.9 million of merger and acquisition related transaction costs recorded in the three months and year ended December 31, 2025. Adjusted EBITDA We remain pleased by our strong bottom-line performance. Fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $11.2 million, or 5.7% of revenue. For the full year, we delivered $63.5 million of Adjusted EBITDA, representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 8.4%. We began 2025 targeting 100 basis points of margin expansion to 7.0% and later raised that target to 8.0% as execution and visibility improved. We ultimately exceeded both, delivering 240 basis points of annual Adjusted EBITDA Margin expansion over the prior year. Our long-standing operating practice with respect to Adjusted EBITDA is not focused on optimizing results for any single quarter. Instead, we set an annual Adjusted EBITDA Margin target and operate within that framework to maximize growth investment decisions over the course of the year. This approach provides flexibility to deploy capital quarter-to-quarter while continuing to focus on delivering and demonstrating operating leverage and scale over time.

Cash flow and balance sheet We delivered record cash performance in 2025. Full year net cash provided by operating activities was $108.7 million, up 14% year-over year, and we generated $78.5 million in Free Cash Flow, an increase of 32% over the prior year. This included a Free Cash Flow use of $(2.0) million in Q4, driven by seasonal working capital dynamics related to receivables, timing of a revenue share catch-up payment, as well as $3.8 million in cash payments for M&A transaction- related costs. We also recognized $(2.6) million in purchases of content assets in Q4 and $(10.6) million for the full year, treated similarly to other categories of capital expenditures.

Percentages refer to year-over-year change and figures may be rounded for presentation purposes. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the Appendix. 1.The years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 include $5.2 million and $4.8 million in cash payments for restructuring related charges and $3.8 million and $3.4 million in cash payments for M&A related transaction costs.

Cash payments of M&A transaction costs made during the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $3.8 million and $0, respectively. The three months ended December 31, 2025 also included $4.7 million of catch-up payments to a content creator partner. This year’s strong cash performance reinforced the strength of our balance sheet. As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $792.6 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, with no debt. This strong financial position gives us the capacity to invest in growth, move quickly in a fast-changing landscape, and create additional opportunities for shareholder returns. As discussed on the December announcement call, this includes our anticipated execution of a sizable share repurchase program following the close of the proposed transaction with Udemy.

Operating segments Q4 2025 Shareholder Letter 14 Coursera serves individual learners and workforce training at scale with a broad set of platform capabilities that leverage a shared foundation of content, technology, and data. We report our results in two operating segments: Consumer and Enterprise. At the start of 2025, we simplified our segment reporting by integrating our degrees results as a product within our Consumer segment. The simplification reinforced our commitment to building a more unified, end-to-end platform experience across all product categories. The simplification has no impact on the reporting of our Enterprise segment or consolidated results.

Q4 2025 Shareholder Letter 15 Enterprise performance Enterprise revenue of $65.4 million was up 5% year over year, driven by our campus and business verticals, with demand trends and spending priorities varying by customer, region, and use case. Segment gross profit was $45.6 million, up 7% year over year. This represented a 69.7% gross profit margin, an improvement of 130 basis points from the prior year period. Margin expansion was driven by content engagement trends similar to those benefiting our Consumer segment. Consumer performance Consumer revenue of $131.5 million increased by 12% from the prior year period, driven by acceleration in our core Consumer subscription and courses category, powered by enhanced marketing capabilities, localized pricing, and strong demand for Coursera Plus. We added 6.8 million new registered learners in Q4, the highest number of fourth quarter additions in Coursera’s history. Segment gross profit was $80.9 million, up 15% year over year. This represented a 61.5% gross profit margin, which was up 150 basis points from the prior year and reflects increased learner engagement with content produced under more favorable revenue share arrangements. Coursera results for the periods reported January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2025. Percentages refer to year-over-year change. Figures may be rounded for presentation purposes. Segment gross profit is defined as segment revenue less content costs in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In Q3’24, Enterprise gross profit margin included a one-time benefit of approximately 150 basis points disclosed in the prior year period.

Q1 and full year 2026 guidance Coursera’s financial outlook for Q1 and full year 2026 reflects expectations on a standalone basis. For Q1 2026, we expect revenue to be in the range of $193 million to $197 million, representing 8% to 10% year-over- year growth. For Adjusted EBITDA, we expect a range of $11 million to $15 million, reflecting typical seasonality and our focus on deploying growth investments early in the year. For the full year 2026, we expect revenue to be in the range of $805 million to $815 million, representing approximately 6% to 8% growth from the prior year. From a segment perspective, this outlook assumes Consumer segment growth of more than 10% year over year, reflecting the performance improvement we continue to drive in our subscription and course offerings, slightly offset by an anticipated 100 basis point headwind from our degrees product category. For our Enterprise segment, we expect 2026 growth in the low-single-digits year over year and have not assumed any material change in the current macroeconomic environment. For full year Adjusted EBITDA, we expect to deliver in the range of $70 million to $76 million, representing an annual Adjusted EBITDA Margin of approximately 9% at the midpoint of the full year ranges. While we do not manage the business to optimize Adjusted EBITDA in any single quarter, we expect bottom-line performance in 2026 to be weighted toward the second half of the year. This reflects our approach to deploying investments early in the year, as well as the expected timing of the gradual gross margin benefits resulting from the introduction of the platform fee at the start of the year. We anticipate seeing some initial expansion in Consumer segment margins in the second half of 2026, followed by Enterprise segment margin improvement in 2027, given revenue recognition dynamics in Enterprise sales. In a standard year, we would expect Free Cash Flow to largely track at or above Adjusted EBITDA, excluding the impact of cash payments related to the proposed transaction. For additional visibility, we wanted to provide our first quarter forecast of approximately $14 million of cash payments related to transaction fees and planning expenses. This does not factor in additional costs contingent upon close or any post-close integration expenses. Our companies are progressing through the regulatory and shareholder approval processes, and we look forward to providing updates in the coming months as our integration planning advances. Outlook Actual results may differ materially from Coursera’s financial outlook as a result of, among other things, the factors described under “Forward-looking statements” below. Please refer to section “Non- GAAP financial measures” for definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the Appendix. Reconciliations are not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses that may be incurred in the future. Stock-based compensation expense-related charges, including employer payroll tax-related items on employee stock transactions, are impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the future fair market value of our common stock, and our future hiring and retention needs, all of which are difficult to predict and subject to constant change.

Key business metrics Q4 2025 Shareholder Letter 18 Definitions Registered Learners We count the total number of registered learners at the end of each period. For purposes of determining our registered learner count, we treat each customer account that registers with a unique email as a registered learner and adjust for any spam, test accounts, and cancellations. Our registered learner count is not intended as a measure of active engagement. New registered learners are individuals that register in a particular period. Paid Enterprise Customers We count the total number of Paid Enterprise Customers that are active on our platform at the end of each period. For purposes of determining our customer count, we treat each customer account that has a corresponding contract as a unique customer, and a single organization with multiple divisions, segments, or subsidiaries may be counted as multiple customers. We define a “Paid Enterprise Customer” as a customer who purchases Coursera via our direct sales force. For purposes of determining our Paid Enterprise Customer count, we exclude our Enterprise customers who do not purchase Coursera via our direct sales force, including organizations engaging on our platform through our Coursera for Teams offering or through our channel partners. Net Retention Rate (“NRR”) for Paid Enterprise Customers We calculate annual recurring revenue (“ARR”) by annualizing each customer’s monthly recurring revenue (“MRR”) for the most recent month at period end. We calculate “Net Retention Rate” for a period by starting with the ARR from all Paid Enterprise Customers as of the 12 months prior to such period end, or Prior Period ARR. We then calculate the ARR from these same Paid Enterprise Customers as of the current period end, or “Current Period ARR”. Current Period ARR includes expansion within Paid Enterprise Customers and is net of contraction or attrition over the trailing 12 months but excludes revenue from new Paid Enterprise Customers in the current period. We then divide the total Current Period ARR by the total Prior Period ARR to arrive at our Net Retention Rate for Paid Enterprise Customers. Three Months Ended December 31, 2025 2024 New Registered Learners 6.8 million 6.1 million Net Retention Rate 93 % 87 % December 31, 2025 2024 Total Registered Learners 197 million 168 million Paid Enterprise Customers 1,730 1,612


 
Non-GAAP financial measures Q4 2025 Shareholder Letter 19 We believe the presentation of these adjusted operating results provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis and comparison of our operating results across reporting periods. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the Appendix. In addition to financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, this shareholder letter includes non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross profit margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP net income per share, non-GAAP operating expenses, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Free Cash Flow, each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure. These are key measures used by our management to help us analyze our financial results, establish budgets and operational goals for managing our business, evaluate our performance, and make strategic decisions. Accordingly, we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and board of directors. In addition, we believe these measures are useful for period-to-period comparisons of our business. We also believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our core business and results of operations over multiple periods with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors, and to analyze our cash performance. However, the non- GAAP financial measures presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the way that these measures are calculated. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered as a substitute for or in isolation from financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. Definitions Non-GAAP Gross Profit, Non-GAAP Gross Profit Margin, Non-GAAP Net Income, and Non-GAAP Net Income Per Share We define non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP net income as GAAP gross profit and GAAP net loss excluding: (1) stock- based compensation expense; (2) amortization of stock-based compensation expense capitalized as internal-use software costs; (3) payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation; (4) merger and acquisition (“M&A”) related transaction costs; (5) costs and settlement (gains) losses related to significant and non-recurring legal and regulatory matters, net of insurance recoveries; and (6) restructuring related charges. Non-GAAP gross profit margin reflects non-GAAP gross profit as a percentage of revenue. Non-GAAP net income per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by the diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. Non-GAAP Operating Expenses We define non-GAAP operating expenses as GAAP operating expenses excluding: (1) stock-based compensation expense; (2) payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation; (3) M&A related transaction costs; and (4) costs and settlement (gains) losses related to significant and non-recurring legal and regulatory matters, net of insurance recoveries. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin We define Adjusted EBITDA as our GAAP net loss excluding: (1) depreciation and amortization; (2) interest income, net; (3) income tax expense; (4) other (income) expense, net; (5) stock-based compensation expense; (6) payroll tax expense related to stock-based compensation; (7) M&A related transaction costs; (8) costs and settlement (gains) losses related to significant and non-recurring legal and regulatory matters, net of insurance recoveries; and (9) restructuring related charges. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Free Cash Flow We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by operating activities, less capitalized internal-use software costs, purchases of content assets, and purchases of property, equipment, and software as we consider these capital expenditures necessary to support our ongoing operations.
