In addition, our advertising business is seasonal, volatile, and cyclical, which could result in fluctuations in our quarterly revenues and operating results, including business prospect expectations.
In addition, macroeconomic factors like labor shortages and disruptions, supply chain disruptions, banking instability, tariffs and retaliatory countermeasures, inflation, and fluctuating interest and foreign currency exchange rates have in the past and may continue to cause logistical challenges, increased input costs, and inventory constraints for our advertisers, which in turn may also halt or decrease advertising spending, and harm our business.
While we believe that these decisions will benefit the aggregate user experience or improve our financial performance over the long term, these changes may cause friction by our users, advertisers, or partners, resulting in disruptions or declines in our key metrics, such as Daily Active Users, user activity, or financial performance.
For example, in the first quarter of 2025, we refined our processes and controls in recording user activity to allow us to more accurately count DAUs that would not otherwise be counted during such period due to delays in receiving user metric information resulting from carrier or other user connectivity issues during the measurement period.

Many of our competitors have significantly more resources and larger market shares than we do, which gives them advantages over us that can make it more difficult for us to succeed.
As a result of such adjustments, our DAUs or other metrics may not be comparable to those in prior periods.
