PROXY STATEMENT QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

The information provided in the “Questions and Answers” format below is for your convenience only and is merely a summary of the information contained in this proxy statement. You should read the entire proxy statement carefully.

Why am I receiving these proxy materials?

You are receiving these proxy materials from us because you were a stockholder of record at the close of business on April 13, 2026 (the “Record Date”). The Board of Directors (the “Board” or “Board of Directors”) of Yext, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Yext,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), has made these proxy materials available to you on the Internet or, upon your request, by delivering printed versions of these materials to you by mail, in connection with our solicitation of proxies for use at our 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (including any adjournment or postponement thereof, the “Annual Meeting”) which will take place on June 10, 2026 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. Proxies are solicited by and on behalf of our Board of Directors.

How do I attend and vote at the Annual Meeting?

We have determined that the Annual Meeting will be held in a virtual meeting format only, via the Internet, with no physical in-person meeting. Stockholders will be able to attend the virtual meeting, vote and submit questions electronically during the meeting by visiting the virtual meeting platform at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/YEXT2026. Stockholders will need the 16-digit control number included in Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”), on the proxy card, or in the instructions that accompanied the proxy materials to join the Annual Meeting. The meeting will begin promptly at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time on June 10, 2026. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. If we determine to make any change to the date, time or procedures of our Annual Meeting, we will announce such changes in advance on our website investors.yext.com.

What if I have technical difficulties during the meeting or trouble accessing the virtual Annual Meeting?

We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting during check-in or the meeting, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the virtual meeting platform log-in page.

Why did I receive a one-page notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials instead of a full set of printed proxy materials?

Pursuant to the “notice and access” rules adopted by the SEC, we have elected to provide stockholders access to our proxy materials over the Internet. Accordingly, we sent a Notice to all of our stockholders as of the Record Date. The Notice includes instructions on how to access our proxy materials over the Internet and how to request a printed copy of these materials. Internet distribution of our proxy materials is designed to expedite receipt by stockholders, lower the cost of the Annual Meeting and conserve natural resources. However, if you would prefer to receive paper copies of our proxy materials, please follow the instructions included in the Notice.

What is the purpose of the Annual Meeting?

For stockholders to vote on the following proposals to:

•elect Daniel Englander and Andrew Sheehan as Class III directors to hold office until our Annual Meeting of Stockholders in 2029 and until his respective successor has been elected or appointed;

•ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2027;

•approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers; and

•approve our amended, restated and extended 2016 Equity Incentive Plan;

and to transact any other business that may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

How does the Board of Directors recommend I vote on these proposals?

The Board recommends that you vote:

•FOR the election of Daniel Englander and Andrew Sheehan as Class III directors;

•FOR the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2027;

•FOR the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers; and

•FOR the approval of our amended, restated and extended 2016 Equity Incentive Plan.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

Holders of Yext common stock at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to receive the Notice and to one vote for each share of common stock at the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, there were 100,112,238 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Stockholders are not permitted to cumulate votes with respect to the election of directors.

What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

If your shares are registered directly in your name with Yext’s transfer agent, Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, Inc., you are considered the “stockholder of record” with respect to those shares, and the Notice was sent directly to you by the Company. As a stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card or to vote by attending the Annual Meeting.

If your shares are held in a stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in street name. The Notice and, upon your request, the proxy materials have been forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares by following their instructions for voting. You are also invited to attend the virtual meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, please refer to your Notice or other information forwarded by your broker, bank or other nominee to see which voting options are available and instructions and requirements to vote your shares.

How can I vote my shares?

Stockholder of Record. The instructions for accessing proxy materials and voting can be found in the Notice that you received either by mail or e-mail. In order to access proxy materials and vote, you will need the 16-digit control number provided on the Notice. There are four ways a stockholder of record can vote:

(1) By Internet before the Annual Meeting: You may vote over the Internet at www.proxyvote.com. You will be asked to provide your 16-digit control number included on the Notice, on your proxy card or in the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.

(2) By Internet at the Annual Meeting: You may vote during the Annual Meeting by joining the meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/YEXT2026. To join the meeting, you will be asked to provide your 16-digit control number included on the Notice, on your proxy card or in the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.

(3) By Telephone: You may vote over the telephone by calling the toll-free number listed in the proxy materials. You will be asked to provide your 16-digit control number included on the Notice, on your proxy card or in the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.

(4) By Mail: If you requested printed copies of proxy materials, you may vote by mailing your proxy card as described in the proxy materials.

In order to be counted, proxies submitted by telephone or Internet before the Annual Meeting must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 9, 2026. If you vote by telephone or Internet before the Annual Meeting, you do not need to return your proxy card or voting instruction card.

Beneficial Owner of Shares. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, you may receive a Notice or instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee. If you received instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee, you must follow these instructions in order to instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote your shares. The availability of telephone or Internet voting before the Annual Meeting will depend on the voting process of your broker, bank or other nominee. You are also invited to attend the virtual meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, please refer to your Notice or other information forwarded by your broker, bank or other nominee to see which voting options are available and instructions and requirements to vote your shares.

All shares that have been properly voted and not revoked will be cast as votes at the Annual Meeting.

What happens if I decide to attend the Annual Meeting, but I have already voted or submitted a proxy covering my shares?

You may still attend the Annual Meeting. Please be aware that attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy.

What can I do if I change my mind after I vote my shares?

If you are a stockholder of record, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy before it is exercised by:

•written notice of revocation to the Corporate Secretary of the Company;

•timely delivery of a valid, later-dated proxy or a later-dated vote by telephone or via the Internet; or

•voting at the Annual Meeting.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you should follow the instructions of your bank, broker or other nominee to change or revoke your voting instructions.

What shares can I vote?

You can vote all shares that you owned on the Record Date. These shares include (1) shares held directly in your name as the stockholder of record, and (2) shares held for you as the beneficial owner through a broker, bank or other nominee.

Is there a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

The names of stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for a period of ten days ending on the day before the Annual Meeting and can be examined by any stockholder for any purpose germane to the Annual Meeting, between the hours of 9:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Eastern, at our principal executive offices at 61 Ninth Avenue, New York, New York 10011, by contacting the Corporate Secretary of the Company.

How are votes counted? How will abstentions and broker non-votes be treated at the Annual Meeting?

Each holder of common stock is entitled to one vote per share of common stock held as of the Record Date on each matter properly brought before the Annual Meeting.

Abstentions and broker non-votes will be considered present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum. An abstention represents a stockholder’s affirmative choice to decline to vote on a proposal. Generally, a “broker non-vote” occurs on a matter when a broker is not permitted to vote on the matter without voting instructions from the beneficial owner and voting instructions are not given. Under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”), without voting instructions from the beneficial owners, brokers will have discretion to vote on the ratification of the appointment of our independent auditors (proposal no. 2) but not on the election of Class III directors (proposal no. 1), the advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers (proposal no. 3) or the approval of our amended, restated and extended 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (proposal no. 4). Therefore, in order for your voice to be heard, it is important that you vote. We

strongly encourage you to vote - every vote is important. Please see “How many shares are required to approve the proposals being voted upon at the Annual Meeting?” below for details concerning how abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for each proposal.

How many shares are required to approve the proposals being voted upon at the Annual Meeting?

The presence of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, in person or represented by proxy, is necessary to constitute a quorum. Virtual attendance at our Annual Meeting constitutes presence in person for purposes of quorum at the meeting. Assuming there is a proper quorum of shares represented at the Annual Meeting, the voting requirements for approval of the proposals at the Annual Meeting are as follows:

Proposal No. 1: Election of Class III Directors. Each director must be elected by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast with respect to that director. This means that, to be elected, the number of votes cast “FOR” a director must exceed the number of votes cast “AGAINST” that director. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast “FOR” or “AGAINST” such director’s election and therefore will have no impact on the outcome of the vote. If an incumbent director does not receive a majority of the votes cast, the director is expected to tender his or her resignation to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors will then determine whether to accept or reject the resignation in accordance with the Company’s bylaws and corporate governance guidelines.

Proposal No. 2: Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditors. The ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions are considered shares present and entitled to vote on the subject matter, and thus, will have the same effect as votes “AGAINST” the proposal. Broker non-votes are not expected to result from this proposal.

Proposal No. 3: Advisory Vote on the Compensation of our Named Executive Officers. The advisory vote regarding named executive officer compensation requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions are considered shares present and entitled to vote on the subject matter, and thus, will have the same effect as votes “AGAINST” the proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because this vote is advisory only, it will not be binding on us or on our Board. However, our Board or our compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when making future decisions regarding executive compensation.

Proposal No. 4: Approval of our amended, restated and extended 2016 Equity Incentive Plan. The approval of our amended, restated and extended 2016 Equity Incentive Plan requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions are considered shares present and entitled to vote on the subject matter, and thus, will have the same effect as votes “AGAINST” the proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal because they represent shares that are not entitled to vote on the matter.

Could other matters be decided at the Annual Meeting?

At the date of this proxy statement, we did not know of any matters to be raised at the Annual Meeting other than those referred to in this proxy statement. If other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting for consideration, the proxy holders named on the proxy card will have the discretion to vote on those matters for you.

Who will pay for the cost of this proxy solicitation?

We will pay the cost of soliciting proxies. Our directors, senior executives or employees, acting without special compensation, may also solicit proxies. Proxies may be solicited by personal interview, mail, electronic transmission, facsimile transmission or telephone. We are required to send copies of proxy-related materials or additional solicitation materials to brokers, fiduciaries and custodians who will forward these materials to the beneficial owners of our shares. On request, we will reimburse brokers and other persons representing beneficial owners of shares for their reasonable expenses in forwarding these materials to beneficial owners.

Who will count the vote?

Yext has designated a representative of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. as the Inspector of Election who will tabulate the votes.

How may I obtain Yext’s Form 10-K and other financial information?

Stockholders can access our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 (“Annual Report”), which contains financial information about the Company, on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at investors.yext.com or on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, current and prospective investors may request a free copy of our Annual Report from:

We also will furnish any exhibit to the Annual Report if specifically requested upon payment of charges that approximate our cost of reproduction. The website addresses in this proxy statement are included for reference only. The information contained on these websites is not incorporated by reference into this proxy statement.

DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board Composition

Our Board of Directors currently consists of seven members, divided into three classes serving staggered three-year terms. Upon expiration of the term of a class of directors, directors in that class will be eligible if nominated again to be elected for a new three-year term at the annual meeting of stockholders in the year in which their term expires. As a result of this classification of directors, it generally takes at least two annual meetings of stockholders for stockholders to effect a change in a majority of the members of our Board of Directors.

Our bylaws provide for majority voting in the election of directors. Each director nominee will be elected to the Board of Directors if the votes cast for such nominee’s election exceed the votes cast against such nominee’s election. Our Board of Directors, after taking into consideration the recommendation of the nominating and corporate governance committee, will determine whether or not to accept the pre-tendered resignation of any nominee for director who receives (in an uncontested election) a greater number of votes against his or her election than votes for such election. In the event of a contested election in which there are more candidates than available seats, our bylaws retain a plurality voting standard, which is the default standard under Delaware law.

The principal occupations and certain other information about the nominees and the additional members of our Board (including the skills and qualifications that led to the conclusion that they should serve as directors), as of March 31, 2026 are set forth below.

He has also served on the advisory board of Workday, Inc. since June 2014 and as the non-executive chairman of Alex Brown, a division of Raymond James, since September 2016. Previously, he was a Managing Director at Silver Lake, in 2018 and Vice

Chairman of Florida East Coast Industries, LLC, the parent company of several commercial real estate, transportation and infrastructure companies based in Florida, from 2013 to 2017. He served on the FINRA Board of Governors from 2009 to 2015. From 2000 to 2013, Mr. Waugh served in various roles at Deutsche Bank Americas, including Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. Earlier in his career, he served as Chief Executive Officer of Quantitative Financial Strategies, a hedge fund. Mr. Waugh also served in various capacities at Merrill Lynch over eleven years, including Co-head of Global Debt Markets. Mr. Waugh also serves on the boards of directors of numerous private companies. Mr. Waugh holds a B.A. in Economics and English from Amherst College. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Waugh’s financial skills and investment management and financial services experience make him a qualified member of our Board.

Departing Director

Jesse Lipson has served as a director since August 2012. Mr. Lipson, a Class III director, is not standing for re-election at the Annual Meeting. We thank Mr. Lipson for his years of service as a member of our Board and wish him well following the expiration of his term. In recognition of his service to the Company, the Company will accelerate the vesting of 27,131 restricted stock units that would otherwise be unvested as of immediately prior to the expiration of his term.

Director Independence

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE. Under the rules of the NYSE, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, the rules of the NYSE require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and governance committees be independent. Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Under the rules of the NYSE, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Our Board of Directors has undertaken a review of its composition, the composition of its committees and the independence of each director. Our Board of Directors has determined that existing directors Messrs. Davis, Lipson, Sheehan, Skorpen and Waugh and Ms. Smith, and our new nominee for election to the Board, Mr. Englander, do not have relationships that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each is “independent” as that term is defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the NYSE. In making this determination for Mr. Englander, our Board of Directors also considered the relationship between Mr. Walrath and Ursula Capital Partners, where Mr. Englander serves as Managing Partner. Accordingly, a majority of our directors are, and following our annual meeting regardless of Mr. Englander’s election to the Board, will be, independent, as required under applicable NYSE rules. Our audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and governance committee are each entirely comprised of independent directors. In making these determinations, our Board of Directors considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our Company, relationships between our Company and the companies where our independent directors serve on the board of directors, on advisory bodies, or as executive officers or have a significant ownership interest and all other facts and circumstances our Board of Directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director.

There are no family relationships among any of our directors, director nominees or executive officers.

Board Leadership and Role of Lead Independent Director

Mr. Walrath currently serves as both the Chairman of our Board of Directors and as our Chief Executive Officer. Our Board of Directors has adopted corporate governance guidelines that provide that if the Board of Directors does not have an independent chairperson, a lead independent director will be appointed by the Board of Directors. Because Mr. Walrath is our Chairman and also our Chief Executive Officer, our Board of Directors has appointed Mr. Sheehan to serve as our Lead Independent Director. As Lead Independent Director, Mr. Sheehan presides over periodic meetings of our independent directors, serves as a liaison between Mr. Walrath and our independent directors and performs such additional duties as our Board of Directors may otherwise determine or delegate.

As a result of the Board’s committee system and the existence of a majority of independent directors, the Board of Directors maintains effective oversight of our business operations, including independent oversight of our financial

statements, executive compensation, selection of director candidates and corporate governance programs. We believe that the leadership structure of our Board of Directors, including Mr. Sheehan’s role as Lead Independent Director, as well as the independent committees of our Board of Directors, is appropriate and enhances our Board of Directors’ ability to effectively carry out its roles and responsibilities on behalf of our stockholders, while Mr. Walrath’s combined role enables strong leadership, creates clear accountability and enhances our ability to communicate our message and strategy clearly and consistently to stockholders.

Board Committees and Meetings

Our Board of Directors has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The composition and responsibilities of each committee are described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board of Directors. Each of the audit, compensation, and nominating and corporate governance committees is a standing committee and operates pursuant to a separate written charter adopted by our Board of Directors that is available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at investors.yext.com. The inclusion of our website address in this proxy statement does not include or incorporate by reference into this proxy statement the information on or accessible through our website. In accordance with our corporate governance guidelines and listing standards of the NYSE, during the fiscal year 2026, each committee reviewed and, in certain cases, proposed changes to their respective charters, and in addition, each committee as well as the Board of Directors conducted an annual self-evaluation.

The Board met 15 times during fiscal year 2026. During fiscal year 2026, each of our directors attended 75% or more of each of (a) the total number of meetings of the Board held (during the period in which the director served on the Board) and (b) the total number of meetings held by all committees on which the director served (during the period in which the director served on such committees). Pursuant to our corporate governance guidelines, each director is encouraged, but not required, to attend each annual meeting of stockholders. Three directors attended the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders.

Audit Committee

Our audit committee consists of Messrs. Davis and Sheehan and Ms. Smith, with Mr. Davis serving as chair. We believe that each of our audit committee members meets the requirements for financial literacy under the current requirements of the Sarbanes‑Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), the NYSE listing standards and SEC rules and regulations. In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that each of Messrs. Davis and Sheehan is an audit committee financial expert within the meaning of SEC regulations. We have made these determinations based on information received by our Board of Directors, including questionnaires provided by the members of our audit committee.

In order to be considered to be independent for purposes of Rule 10A‑3(b)(1) under the Exchange Act, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee: (1) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries; or (2) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries. Each member of our audit committee satisfies the independence requirements under the NYSE listing standards and Rule 10A‑3(b)(1) of the Exchange Act.

Our audit committee’s duties and responsibilities are to, among other things:

•appoint and oversee an independent registered public accounting firm and approve audit and non‑audit services;

•evaluate the independence and qualifications of the independent registered public accounting firm at least annually;

•review our annual audited consolidated financial statements and quarterly consolidated financial statements;

•discuss with management the Company’s procedures with respect to earnings press releases and review financial information included in press releases and earnings guidance provided to analysts and rating agencies;

•review the results of the internal audit program, including significant issues in internal audit reports and responses by management;

•review and discuss with management and our independent registered public accounting firm, on at least an annual basis, the overall adequacy and effectiveness of our legal, regulatory and ethical compliance programs, as well as reports regarding compliance with applicable laws, regulations and internal compliance programs;

•discuss with management and, as appropriate, our independent registered public accounting firm, the adequacy and effectiveness of our policies and practices regarding information technology risk management and the internal controls related to cybersecurity;

•oversee management’s process for identifying, monitoring and addressing enterprise risks and evaluate and discuss its assessment of such enterprise risks with management, as well as oversee and monitor management’s plans to address such risks;

•engage independent legal, accounting and other advisors as it determines necessary or appropriate to carry out its duties;

•report regularly to the Board of Directors about issues including, but not limited to, any issues that arise with respect to the quality or integrity of our financial statements, our compliance with legal or regulatory requirements, the performance and independence of the independent registered public accounting firm and the performance of the internal audit function;

•review at least annually the adequacy of the committee’s charter and recommend any proposed changes to the Board of Directors for approval; and

•conduct and present to the Board of Directors an annual self‑performance evaluation of the committee.

Our audit committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable rules of the SEC and the listing standards of the NYSE. Our audit committee held twelve meetings during the fiscal year 2026.

Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee consists of Messrs. Lipson and Skorpen and Ms. Smith, with Ms. Smith serving as chair. Upon the recommendation of our nominating and corporate governance committee, our Board of Directors has appointed Mr. Englander to serve as a member and chair of the compensation committee, effective upon the expiration of Mr. Lipson’s term at the Annual Meeting and Mr. Englander’s election as a director. Each member of the compensation committee meets the requirements for independence under, and the functioning of our compensation committee complies with, any applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the NYSE listing standards and SEC rules and regulations. Additionally, each member of the compensation committee is a “non-employee director” as defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Our compensation committee’s duties and responsibilities are to, among other things:

•establish, and periodically review, a general compensation strategy for our Company, and oversee the development and implementation of our compensation plans to ensure that these plans are consistent with this general compensation strategy;

•administer all of our equity‑based plans and such other plans as shall be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors;

•conduct and present to the Board of Directors an annual self‑performance evaluation of the committee; and

•review, at least annually, the adequacy of the committee’s charter and recommend any proposed changes to the Board of Directors for approval.

The compensation committee may delegate its authority to subcommittees or the chair of the compensation committee. Although the compensation committee does not currently do so, it may delegate to officers of the Company the authority to make equity grants to employees or consultants of the Company who are not directors of the Company or executive officers of the Company under the Company’s equity plans. The compensation committee has the right, in its sole discretion, to retain or obtain the advice of compensation consultants, independent legal counsel and other advisers. The compensation committee periodically engages Compensia, an outside consultant to advise on compensation-related matters. For a discussion regarding the role of management and compensation consultants in the compensation-setting process, refer to “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Compensation‑Setting Process.”

Our compensation committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable rules of the SEC and the listing standards of the NYSE. Our compensation committee held eight meetings during the fiscal year 2026.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our nominating and corporate governance committee consists of Messrs. Sheehan and Waugh, with Mr. Sheehan serving as chair. Each member of the nominating and corporate governance committee meets the requirements for independence under, and the functioning of our nominating and corporate governance committee complies with, any applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the NYSE listing standards and SEC rules and regulations. Our nominating and governance committee’s duties and responsibilities are to, among other things:

•make recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding the size and structure of the board, the composition of the board, the criteria for board membership and the process for filling vacancies on the board;

•identify individuals qualified to become board members, after taking into consideration, if applicable, the criteria for board membership and recommend to the Board of Directors nominees to fill vacancies and newly created directorships and the nominees to stand for election as directors;

•oversee management's proposals to stockholders and management's response to proposals received from stockholders, performing such duties in conjunction with the compensation committee in matters concerning executive compensation;

•review the duties, composition and charters of the committees of the Board of Directors;

•review and recommend to the Board of Directors our corporate governance principles and any proposed changes to such principles;

•conduct and present to the Board of Directors an annual self‑performance evaluation of the committee;

•oversee the evaluation of the Board of Directors, its committees and management and report such evaluation to the Board of Directors;

•review and approve our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, consider questions of possible conflicts of interest of board members and other corporate officers, review actual and potential conflicts of interest of board members and corporate officers, other than related party transactions reviewed by the audit committee, and approve or prohibit any involvement of such persons in matters that may involve a conflict of interest or taking of a corporate opportunity;

•review and discuss with management the disclosure of the Company's corporate governance practices;

•review at least annually the adequacy of the committee’s charter and recommend any proposed changes to the Board of Directors for approval; and

•oversee succession planning for the Board of Directors and identifying and recommending qualified individuals to become members of the Board of Directors.

Our nominating and governance committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable listing requirements and rules of the NYSE. Our nominating and governance committee held four meetings during the fiscal year 2026.

Identifying and Evaluating Director Nominees

Our Board of Directors has delegated to the nominating and governance committee the responsibility of identifying individuals qualified to become board members and recommending to the Board of Directors nominees to fill vacancies and newly created directorships and the nominees to stand for election as directors. If the nominating and governance committee determines that an additional or replacement director is required, it may take such measures that it considers appropriate in connection with its evaluation of a director candidate, including candidate interviews, inquiry of the person or persons making the recommendation or nomination, engagement of an outside search firm to gather additional information, or reliance on the knowledge of the members of the committee, the Board of Directors or management.

In its evaluation of director candidates, including the members of the Board of Directors eligible for re-election, the nominating and governance committee will consider the current size and composition of the Board of Directors and the needs of the Board of Directors and its committees. Some of the factors that our nominating and governance committee considers include, without limitation, character, integrity, judgment, diversity, including diversity in terms of gender, race, ethnicity and experience, independence, area of expertise, corporate experience, length of service, potential conflicts of interest, other commitments and similar factors.

Nominees must also have the highest personal and professional ethics and integrity, proven achievement and competence in the nominee’s field and the ability to exercise sound business judgment, skills that are complementary to those of the existing Board of Directors, the ability to assist and support management and make significant contributions to the Company’s success, and an understanding of the fiduciary responsibilities that are required of a member of the Board of Directors and the commitment of time and energy necessary to diligently carry out those responsibilities.

The nominating and governance committee will consider candidates recommended by stockholders in the same manner as candidates recommended to the committee from other sources. Stockholders should submit recommendations for director candidates to our General Counsel or the Legal Department, at 61 Ninth Avenue, New York, New York 10011. The recommendation must include the candidate’s name, home and business contact information, detailed biographical data, relevant qualifications, a signed letter from the candidate confirming willingness to serve, information regarding any relationships between the candidate and the Company and evidence of the recommending stockholder’s ownership of

Company stock. Such recommendations must also include a statement from the recommending stockholder in support of the candidate, particularly within the context of the criteria for Board membership. A stockholder that wants to nominate a candidate for election to the Board should direct the nomination by written notice to the Corporate Secretary and must meet the deadlines and other requirements set forth in the Company’s bylaws and the rules and regulations of the SEC. See “Requirements, Including Deadlines, For Submission of Proxy Proposals, Nomination of Directors and Other Business of Stockholders” for more information.

Governance Structure

We have developed a corporate governance framework to provide our Board of Directors with the authority and practices to review and evaluate our business operations and to make decisions independent of management. The Board of Directors has adopted corporate governance guidelines, committee charters and a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics which, together with our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, form the governance framework for the Board of Directors and its committees.

Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics establishes the standards of ethical conduct applicable to all directors, officers and employees of our Company, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer. The code addresses, among other things, conflicts of interest, compliance with disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting, corporate opportunities and confidentiality requirements. We intend to disclose any amendments to the code, or any waivers of its requirements, on our website to the extent required by SEC applicable rules and regulations.

These documents are available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at investors.yext.com. The inclusion of our website address in this proxy statement does not include or incorporate by reference into this proxy statement the information on or accessible through our website.

Communications with Directors

Any communication from a stockholder or other interested party to the Board of Directors generally, the non-management directors or a particular director regarding bona fide concerns or questions should be in writing and should be delivered to the care of the General Counsel by registered or overnight mail at the principal executive office of the Company at 61 Ninth Avenue, New York, New York 10011. Each communication should indicate that it contains a stockholder or interested party communication.

The General Counsel will, in consultation with appropriate directors as necessary, generally review communications from stockholders and interested parties and forward such communications or a summary thereof to the Board of Directors or the applicable director or directors. Communications that the General Counsel, in consultation with appropriate directors as necessary, deems are improper or irrelevant to the functioning of the Board of Directors or the Company will not be forwarded.

This procedure does not apply to communications to independent directors from officers or directors of the Company who are stockholders or stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

Risk Oversight

Risk is inherent with every business, and we face a number of risks, including strategic, financial, business and operational, legal and compliance, and reputational. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks the Company faces, while our Board of Directors, as a whole and assisted by its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management.

Oversight is conducted primarily through committees of the Board of Directors, as disclosed in the descriptions of each of the committees above and in the charters of each of the committees. The audit committee primarily oversees management’s process for identifying, monitoring and addressing enterprise risks and the adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s policies and practices regarding information technology risk management and internal controls related to cybersecurity. The compensation committee considers the risks associated with our compensation policies and practices, with respect to all employees. All committees receive regular reports from officers responsible for oversight of particular risks

within the Company. The Board periodically receives reports by each committee chair regarding the committee’s considerations and actions. The Board’s allocation of risk oversight responsibility may change from time to time based on the evolving needs of the Company.

Compensation Risk Assessment

The compensation committee periodically reviews the Company’s general compensation strategy and reviews the risks arising from the Company’s compensation policies and practices for all employees that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company and to evaluate compensation policies and practices that could mitigate such risks. In addition, our compensation committee has engaged Compensia to independently review our executive compensation program. Based on these reviews, our compensation committee structures our executive compensation program to encourage our named executive officers focus on both short-term and long-term success. We therefore do not believe that our executive compensation program creates risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

Compensation Committee Interlocks

None of the members of our compensation committee is an executive officer or employee of our Company. None of our executive officers serves as a member of the compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our compensation committee.

Compensation of Non-Employee Directors

The following table sets forth information concerning compensation earned by the non-employee members of our Board of Directors in fiscal 2026. Information concerning the compensation earned by Michael Walrath, our Chief Executive Officer, in fiscal 2026 is set forth in the section titled “Executive Compensation.”

These amounts may not correspond to the actual value that may be received by the independent directors.

(2)All non-employee directors were granted 27,131 restricted stock units or restricted stock awards on June 11, 2025. All of the shares subject to such awards vest on June 11, 2026, subject to the director’s continued service to the Company on such date.

We also reimburse our non‑employee directors for their reasonable out‑of‑pocket costs and travel expenses in connection with their attendance at Board of Directors and committee meetings.

The following table lists all outstanding options, restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards held by our non‑employee directors as of January 31, 2026:


Name	Option Awards (#)	Stock Awards (#)
Mark Davis	—	68,798
Jesse Lipson	—	48,965	(1)
Andrew Sheehan	—	27,131
Evan Skorpen	—	33,672	(2)

(1)The amount includes 21,834 vested but deferred restricted stock units.

(2)The amount includes 6,541 restricted stock awards received in lieu of cash compensation.

(3)The amount includes 5,930 restricted stock awards received in lieu of cash compensation.

Outside Director Compensation Policy

Members of our Board of Directors who are not employees are eligible for awards pursuant to our Amended and Restated Outside Director Compensation Policy in the form of cash and/or equity, as described below.

Cash Compensation

Each non‑employee director is eligible to receive the following annual cash retainers for certain board and/or committee service:

• $36,000 per year for service as a member of our Board of Directors;

• $20,000 per year additionally for service as chair of our Board of Directors;

• $18,000 for service as lead independent director;

• $20,000 per year additionally for service as chair of the audit committee;

• $10,000 per year additionally for service as a member of the audit committee (other than chair);

• $15,000 per year additionally for service as chair of the compensation committee;

• $7,500 per year additionally for service as a member of the compensation committee (other than chair);

• $7,500 per year additionally for service as chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee; and

• $3,750 per year additionally for service as a member of the nominating and corporate governance committee (other than chair).

Cash retainers are paid quarterly in arrears on a pro-rated basis. Our non-employee directors can elect to receive cash compensation in the form of equity awards for the upcoming calendar year. Messrs. Skorpen and Waugh elected that payment of cash retainers for the calendar year ended December 31, 2025 be made in the form of equity awards under our 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) and therefore received restricted stock or restricted stock units in lieu of cash for their service that vested on March 20, 2026, subject to the director's continued service to the Company on such date.

Equity Compensation

Non‑employee directors are eligible to receive all types of equity awards (except incentive stock options) under our 2016 Plan, including discretionary awards not covered under our Outside Director Compensation Policy. All grants of awards under our Outside Director Compensation Policy will be automatic and non‑discretionary.

Upon joining our Board of Directors, each newly‑elected non‑employee director will receive an initial equity award (the “initial award”), under our 2016 Plan with a value of approximately $350,000. This initial award will vest in approximately equal installments annually over a three‑year period, subject to continued service through each vesting date. The initial award will be in the form of restricted stock or restricted stock units.

On the date of each annual meeting of stockholders following the effectiveness of our Outside Director Compensation Policy, each non‑employee director who is continuing as a director following the applicable meeting will be granted an annual equity award (the “annual award”), under our 2016 Plan with a value of approximately $175,000, provided the non‑employee director has served on our Board of Directors for at least the preceding six months. This annual award will vest as to 100% of the shares on the one‑year anniversary of the date of grant. A non‑employee director may defer the settlement of vested equity awards until his or her separation from our Board of Directors.

Notwithstanding the vesting schedules described above, the vesting of all equity awards granted to a non‑employee director, including any award granted outside of our Outside Director Compensation Policy, will vest in full upon a “change in control” (as defined in our 2016 Plan).

Our 2016 Plan contains maximum limits, which were approved by our stockholders, on the size of the equity awards that can be granted to each of our non‑employee directors in any fiscal year, but those maximum limits do not reflect the intended size of any potential grants or a commitment to make any equity award grants to our non‑employee directors in the future.

Indemnification

We have entered into an indemnification agreement with each of our directors and executive officers. The indemnification agreements and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws require us to indemnify our directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. See “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions – Transactions and Relationships with Directors, Officers and 5% Stockholders – Indemnification of Officers and Directors.”

Stock Ownership Guidelines

Our Board of Directors has approved stock ownership guidelines for our non-employee directors to further align their interests with the interests of our stockholders.

Pursuant to the guidelines, each non-employee director is expected to accumulate and hold a number of shares of our common stock equal to the number of shares with a value equal to five times his or her annual cash retainer for Board service, and to maintain this minimum amount of stock ownership during the director’s tenure on the Board of Directors. For purposes of determining stock ownership pursuant to the guidelines, we include shares owned outright and vested shares subject to any restricted stock unit awards that have not vested as a result of delayed settlement, but do not include the value of shares attributable to unvested time vesting restricted stock or any shares that are pledged or otherwise encumbered. Our non-employee directors are expected to achieve the applicable level of ownership by the later of (i) the five-year anniversary of the effective date of the guidelines and (ii) the five-year anniversary of the date he or she became a director.

Non-employee directors are not required to purchase shares on the open market in order to comply with the guidelines. In the event a non-employee director falls out of compliance with the guidelines at any time, he or she will be required to maintain 50% of the shares (net of tax and exercise costs) acquired through the vesting or exercise of awards until the guidelines are again satisfied. The guidelines are waived for any non-employee director who has waived the rights to compensation, and the compensation committee has the authority to approve exceptions to the guidelines.

This section also discusses how and why the compensation committee of the Board of Directors (the “compensation committee”), arrived at specific compensation decisions involving our named executive officers during fiscal 2026.

Executive Compensation Philosophy, Objectives and Design

We strive to maintain sound corporate governance standards in our executive compensation policies and practices. The compensation committee reviewed our fiscal 2026 executive compensation program to evaluate its consistency with our short- and long-term goals given the rapidly evolving and dynamic nature of our business and the market in which we compete for executive talent.

In addition, in fiscal 2026, we maintained the following sound corporate governance policies and practices with respect to our executive compensation program:

What we do

•We link pay to performance by structuring a substantial amount of total compensation for our named executive officers in the form of variable compensation that aligns the interests of our named executive officers and shareholders in maximizing the shareholder value.

•Our compensation committee is made up solely of independent directors and makes all executive compensation decisions.

•Our compensation committee reviews our executive and broad-based compensation strategy annually to align incentives with principles of prudent risk management.

•Our compensation committee directly engages an independent compensation consultant, Compensia, to provide analysis for the annual executive compensation review and guidance on other executive compensation matters independent of management.

•Our compensation committee reviews external market data when making compensation decisions and annually reviews our peer groups with its independent compensation consultant.

•Our compensation committee periodically reviews the external market for qualified independent consultants to ensure that the compensation committee receives the highest quality data, advice and counsel from its independent advisors.

•We maintain a clawback policy in compliance with Section 10D of the Exchange Act and NYSE listing standards.

What we do not do

•We do not provide guaranteed minimum annual cash incentive compensation.

•We provide for single trigger vesting acceleration benefits upon a change of control only to Mr. Walrath, and only if relevant stock price and/or total shareholder return targets are satisfied.

•We do not provide excessive severance or change of control related benefits.

•We do not offer golden parachute tax gross-ups to any of our named executive officers or other executive officers.

•We prohibit our named executive officers, the members of our Board of Directors and other employees from hedging or similar transactions designed to decrease risks associated with holding our equity securities.

Executive Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

We operate in a highly competitive business environment, which is characterized by frequent technological advances and rapidly changing market requirements. To successfully grow our business in this dynamic environment, we must continually develop and refine our products and services to support our customers’ needs. To achieve these objectives, we require a highly talented and seasoned team of technical, sales, marketing, operations, and other business professionals.

The market for skilled personnel in the software industry is very competitive. We compete with other companies in our industry globally and other companies in the major metropolitan areas in the United States to attract and retain a skilled management team. To attract and retain qualified executive candidates, our compensation committee seeks to develop competitive compensation packages while rewarding named executive officers for performance. At the same time, our compensation committee is sensitive to the need to balance both market competitive and internal equity considerations. We believe compensation should serve to align the interests of named executive officers with the interests of shareholders in maximizing shareholder value. To meet this challenge, we have embraced a compensation philosophy of offering our named executive officers competitive total direct compensation, which is comprised of base salary, short-term cash incentive compensation, and long-term equity awards, in addition to employee benefits and severance and change of control protections. We believe this philosophy allows us to attract, retain, and motivate talented executives who have the skills and abilities needed to drive our desired business results while aligning the incentives of our named executive officers with our stockholders’ interests.

The specific objectives of our executive compensation program are to:

•Drive the development of a growing business and the achievement of growth objectives;

•Attract, motivate, reward, and retain highly qualified executives who are critical to our success;

•Recognize strong individual achievement; and

•Align incentives of our executives to create long-term value for our stockholders.

Executive Compensation Program Design

Our executive compensation program reflects our stage of development as a growing publicly-traded company. To support our growth objectives and reinforce a strong pay-for-performance culture, the majority of total direct compensation for our named executive officers is variable compensation in the form of cash incentive compensation tied to the achievement of our short-term financial objectives and equity awards tied to the long-term performance of our common stock. We believe these incentives in turn align the interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders. Within this overall framework, our compensation committee reviews each component of executive compensation separately and relative to the overall compensation package to determine whether such amounts and mix of components further the objectives of our executive compensation program. Additionally, we designed our executive compensation program to provide competitive total direct compensation. To assess the competitiveness of our total direct compensation, the compensation committee considers the total direct compensation at companies in our compensation peer group at the 50th and 75th percentile; however, the compensation committee does not specifically benchmark the compensation of any individual to a precise percentile within this general percentile range. In establishing target total direct compensation for each of our named executive officers, the compensation committee may also take into account each named executive officer's prior experience, in terms of former employers and roles at such employers, the prevalence of executives with a comparable level of skill and experience and potential competitors for such executive's talent. We believe our executive compensation program is appropriate for a company of our size, in our industry, and in our stage of growth. As the Company matures, we will continue to evaluate our executive compensation program and governance practices.

We offer cash compensation in the form of base salaries and annual cash incentive compensation opportunities. Cash incentive compensation is used to create meaningful variation in actual total cash compensation based on differences in business results in a given year. In recent years, we have structured our annual cash incentive compensation opportunities to focus on the achievement of specific annual financial objectives that we believe will further our longer-term growth objectives. While discretion may be exercised to increase a named executive officer's cash incentive compensation based on individual results, cash incentive compensation is largely based on the Company's financial performance.

Additionally, equity awards serve as a key component of our executive compensation program. Currently, we grant restricted stock units to deliver market competitive levels of compensation and to provide executives with value realized over time based on the long-term performance of our common stock as well as our results of operations. We believe that by providing equity awards with multi-year vesting and performance provisions, we incentivize and reward our named executive officers for long-term corporate performance based on the value of our common stock and, thereby, align the interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders. In addition, the compensation committee believes that offering

meaningful equity ownership with multi-year vesting and performance provisions assists us in retaining our named executive officers.

Finally, we offer executives standard health and welfare benefits that are generally available to our other employees, including medical, dental, vision, life and disability insurance and 401(k) plans, and our executives pay the same rates as all other employees.

Our compensation committee evaluates our compensation philosophy and executive compensation program as circumstances require, and reviews compensation for our named executive officers annually, generally in the second quarter of the fiscal year. As part of this review, we expect that our compensation committee will apply our philosophy and the objectives outlined above, together with consideration for the levels of compensation that we would be willing to pay to ensure that our executive compensation remains competitive and that we meet our retention objectives, as well as the cost to the Company if we were required to find a replacement for a named executive officer. Adjustments to a named executive officer's compensation made in connection with this review generally occur in the second quarter of the fiscal year with adjustments to cash compensation generally effective as of May 1 of the fiscal year and, unless further adjusted by the compensation committee, remaining in effect for the remainder of that fiscal year until May 1 of the subsequent fiscal year.

Compensation-Setting Process

Role of our Compensation Committee

Compensation decisions for our named executive officers are made by our compensation committee. Currently, our compensation committee is responsible for reviewing, approving and determining the compensation of our named executive officers and making recommendations to our Board of Directors and for administering all cash-based and equity-based compensation plans.

Our compensation committee, after consulting with our management team and Compensia, approves our corporate performance objectives, and makes decisions with respect to any base salary and cash incentive compensation adjustments and equity awards for our named executive officers. With respect to our executive bonus plan, our compensation committee determines the applicable performance targets for each corporate performance objective used for the applicable year. Near the end of the fiscal year, our compensation committee establishes the list of peer companies to develop the relevant market for determining executive pay levels and practices in the following fiscal year.

Role of Management

In carrying out its responsibilities, our compensation committee works with members of our management team, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief People Officer, and General Counsel. Given our other named executive officers work closely with him, our Chief Executive Officer is able to advise on the performance of all our other named executive officers; accordingly he is an actively involved observer of compensation committee meetings. Our Chief People Officer typically coordinates the agenda and leads management’s presentations to the compensation committee. Overall, our management team (together with Compensia) assists our compensation committee by providing information on corporate and individual performance, market data, and management’s perspective and recommendations on compensation matters as well as information on tax, accounting, legal and regulatory matters relating to executive compensation.

Except with respect to his own compensation, our Chief Executive Officer will make recommendations to our compensation committee regarding compensation matters, including the compensation of our named executive officers. Our Chief Executive Officer also participates in meetings of our compensation committee, except with respect to discussions involving his own compensation.

While our compensation committee solicits the recommendations and proposals of our Chief Executive Officer with respect to compensation-related matters, these recommendations and proposals are only one factor in our compensation committee’s decision-making process.

Role of Compensation Consultant

Our compensation committee has the authority to retain the services of external advisors, including compensation consultants, legal counsel and other advisors, from time to time, as it sees fit, in connection with carrying out its duties.

In fiscal 2026, our compensation committee continued to engage Compensia, a national compensation consulting firm, to advise on our executive and non-employee director compensation strategy and guiding principles, our current executive total compensation levels relative to competitive market practices, our compensation peer group, and potential executive compensation decisions.

Compensia reports directly to our compensation committee and attends meetings of our compensation committee, as requested. Although our compensation committee considers the recommendations of Compensia as to our executive and non-employee director compensation programs, these recommendations are only one factor in our compensation committee’s decision-making process.

In fiscal 2026, Compensia did not provide any services to us other than the services provided to our compensation committee. Our compensation committee has assessed the independence of Compensia in fiscal 2026 taking into account, among other things, the factors set forth in Exchange Act Rule 10C-1 and the listing standards of the NYSE, and has concluded that no conflict of interest exists with respect to the work that Compensia performs for our compensation committee.

Role of Stockholder Input

At our 2025 Annual Meeting, we conducted our stockholder advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers. Our stockholders approved the fiscal 2025 compensation of our named executive officers, with approximately 98% support. The compensation committee reviews the voting results of the advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers and takes the results into consideration when reviewing and establishing the compensation of our named executive officers in the following fiscal year. Given stockholders’ strong support for our fiscal 2025 compensation for our named executive officers, the compensation committee continued to evolve our executive compensation program, particularly that of our Chief Executive Officer, and did not otherwise make material changes to our executive compensation program based on stockholder feedback.

Use of Competitive Data

To assess the competitiveness of our executive compensation program and to assist in setting compensation levels, we refer to the pay practices of our peer companies as well as industry surveys, including the Radford Global Technology Survey, and where appropriate, a broader set of industry comparable practices.

Competitive Positioning

With the assistance of Compensia, our compensation committee reviews and considers the compensation levels and practices of a group of peer companies. The compensation committee reviews our compensation peer group at least annually and adjusts its composition, as necessary, based on changes in both our business and the businesses of the companies in the peer group. For fiscal 2026, the selection criteria for our compensation peer group targeted companies with comparable software as a service business models and business software applications, with annual revenues generally between $200 million and $790 million, and market capitalization generally between approximately $287 million and $2.6 billion.

Our compensation peer group for fiscal 2026 included the following companies:


8x8	Amplitude	BigCommerce Holdings
Consensus Cloud Solutions	Couchbase	Digital Turbine
Domo	E2open Parent Holdings	Fastly
Magnite	N-able	Olo
Progress Software	PubMatic	Semrush Holdings
Sprinklr	Sprout Social

In setting the various elements of compensation for our named executive officers, our compensation committee reviews target total direct compensation (which is comprised of base salary, short-term cash incentive compensation and long-term equity awards vesting in a given calendar year) and the elements thereof for our named executive officers and those of similarly situated executives of our compensation peer group. Compensia provided data at varying percentiles for such compensation, and our compensation committee used these data as market reference points. For certain named executive officers, the data from the peer group may be supplemented with survey information where we believe the peer group alone does not provide sufficient information for similarly situated executives or when we believe the peer information is otherwise not comparable. While our compensation committee reviews compensation information of the peer group and survey information as elements in determining a competitive level of compensation, our compensation committee considers other factors in setting actual compensation, including prior experience, compensation history, potential competitors for such executive’s talent, the overall competitive market for our executives, the alignment between the market‑based positions and the actual responsibilities of our executives, each executive’s contributions and performance, internal parity, the scope of each executive’s responsibility, the value of each executive’s unvested equity holdings, our short-and long-term objectives, and prevailing market conditions.

Executive Compensation Program Components

Overview

In fiscal 2026, the key elements of our executive compensation program included base salary, cash incentive compensation, time-based equity compensation, time and performance-based equity compensation, employee benefits, and severance and change of control protections.

In fiscal 2026, consistent with our compensation philosophy, the majority of total direct compensation for our named executive officers was variable compensation in the form of cash incentive compensation tied to the achievement of our short-term financial objectives and equity awards tied to the long-term performance of our common stock and our results of operations. Specifically, our practice of granting restricted stock units, which generally vest over a two to five-year period, promotes multi-year executive retention and long-term enterprise value creation, while cash incentive compensation is directly tied to our annual performance and achievement of short-term objectives. The compensation committee carefully considers the appropriate mix of time- and performance-based awards in setting appropriate equity compensation for our named executive officers based upon the Company’s expected performance and other factors such as market conditions for the applicable fiscal year. For fiscal 2026, the compensation committee determined that awards of both time-based equity and performance-based equity were advisable to ensure compensation would be paid in a predictable manner while also emphasizing desired Company performance.

Base Salary

Base salary is the primary fixed component of our executive compensation program, which we use to compensate our named executive officers for the scope and impact of their job. Generally, we establish the initial base salaries of our named executive officers through arm’s-length negotiation at the time we hire the individual named executive officer, taking into account position, qualifications, experience, salary expectations, compensation data from surveys of similarly-situated companies in our compensation peer group, and the base salaries of our other executives. Thereafter, our compensation committee reviews the base salaries of each named executive officer annually and makes adjustments as it determines to be reasonable and necessary to reflect the scope of a named executive officer’s performance, contributions, responsibilities, experience, prior salary level, position (in the case of a promotion), and market conditions, as appropriate.

Our compensation committee reviewed our executive compensation program, including the base salaries of our named executive officers in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. Our compensation committee considered the peer group compensation data provided by Compensia, the recommendations of our CEO (except with respect to his own base salary), as well as other relevant factors, including, among others, the performance and contributions of each of our named executive officers and the heightened competition for experienced leadership in our industry. The base salaries of our named executive officers in fiscal 2026 were as follows:


Named Executive Officer	Fiscal 2026 Salary Rate ($)	Percentage Increase
Michael Walrath(1)	550,000	—	%
Darryl Bond	450,000	4.7	%
Ho Shin	445,000	2.3	%

(1)Mr. Walrath did not receive a salary in fiscal 2025. On March 12, 2025, the compensation committee of our Board of Directors approved revised cash and equity compensation arrangements for Mr. Walrath, which included an annual base salary of $550,000.

The total base salaries earned by our named executive officers in fiscal 2026 are set forth in the “Summary Compensation Table” below.

Cash Incentive Compensation

We use cash incentive compensation to motivate our named executive officers to achieve our annual financial objectives while making progress towards our longer-term strategic and growth goals. Accordingly, cash incentive compensation is used to create meaningful differences in total cash compensation to reflect differences in business results in a given year. Our executive bonus plan allows our compensation committee to provide cash incentive compensation to employees approved by our compensation committee, including our named executive officers.

Our compensation committee administers our omnibus employee incentive plan (the “Employee Incentive Plan”). Generally in the first or second quarter of each fiscal year, following the Board of Director’s approval of our annual operating plan, our compensation committee adopts an incentive compensation plan for executives for the applicable fiscal year under our Employee Incentive Plan (the “executive bonus plan”). As a part of creating the executive bonus plan, the compensation committee establishes the plan participants, the size of the target cash incentive compensation pool, the performance goals to be used to determine whether to make payouts, the associated target levels for each performance goal, and the potential payouts based on actual performance for the fiscal year. The compensation committee in its sole discretion may determine the performance goals (if any) applicable to any award or portion of an award, which may include the attainment of one or more financial, operational, or business objectives. The performance goals may be consistent across all Employee Incentive Plan participants or differ from participant to participant and from award to award.

Generally, in the second quarter of each fiscal year, our compensation committee establishes target annual cash incentive compensation opportunities for each named executive officer. Adjustments to a named executive officer’s compensation made in connection with this review is generally effective as of May 1 of the fiscal year and, unless further adjusted by the compensation committee, remains in effect for the remainder of that fiscal year until May 1 of the subsequent fiscal year. The target annual cash incentive compensation opportunities for each named executive officer for any fiscal year is subject to the terms of the executive bonus plan for that fiscal year as described in the paragraph above.

Achievement of performance goals and the amount of the cash incentive compensation to be awarded to each named executive officer are determined by our compensation committee after the end of the applicable performance period based on our actual performance relative to the performance goals. As the administrator of our Employee Incentive Plan, the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion and at any time, increase, reduce or eliminate a participant’s actual award, and/or increase, reduce or eliminate the amount allocated to the incentive pool for a particular performance period. The actual award may be below, at or above a participant’s target award, in the discretion of the administrator. The administrator may determine the amount of any increase, reduction or elimination on the basis of such factors as it deems relevant, and it is not required to establish any allocation or weighting with respect to the factors it considers. Our Board of Directors and our compensation committee in their sole discretion have the authority to amend, suspend or terminate our Employee Incentive Plan, provided such action does not impair the existing rights of any participant with respect to any earned awards.

Actual awards are paid in cash only after performance goals have been achieved and require continued employment through the last day of the performance period and the date the actual award is paid. Payment of awards occurs as soon as administratively practicable after they are earned, but no later than within the timeline set forth in our Employee Incentive Plan.

Our compensation committee reviewed our executive compensation program, including the target annual cash incentive compensation opportunities for our named executive officers in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. The target annual cash incentive compensation opportunities under our executive bonus plan for our named executive officers during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, were as follows:


Named Executive Officer						Fiscal 2026 Executive Bonus Plan Target Award Opportunity ($)
Michael Walrath						550,000
Darryl Bond						325,000
Ho Shin						205,000

Fiscal 2026 Executive Bonus Plan

In considering the relevant performance goals for the named executive officers the compensation committee seeks to encourage an efficient level of revenue growth and profitability that are aligned with the interests of the Company’s stockholders. The compensation committee determines the target levels for each of these performance goals in consultation with management after taking into consideration our performance for the current and immediately preceding fiscal year. To that end, with respect to the executive bonus plan for fiscal 2026 (the “Fiscal 2026 Executive Bonus Plan”), the compensation committee established fiscal 2026 total revenue of $452.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $104.0 million as the relevant performance goals, which were weighted 50% and 50%, respectively. Readers are encouraged to review Appendix A for additional information regarding Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss. While the compensation committee regularly reviewed our executive compensation program in fiscal 2026 and the expected payouts under the program, the compensation committee did not adjust the performance goals for our Fiscal 2026 Executive Bonus Plan, despite the impact of foreign exchange rates and other macro-economic factors on our business. These performance objectives should not be interpreted as a prediction of how the Company will perform in future periods. As described above, the purpose of these objectives was to establish a method for determining the payment of annual cash incentive compensation. You are cautioned not to rely on these performance goals as a prediction of our future performance.

A named executive officer’s cash incentive compensation, if any, is computed using a payout percentage, based on the weighted average of the achievement percentages for each performance goal, applied to the named executive officer’s target annual cash incentive compensation opportunity. First, an achievement percentage for each performance goal is computed based upon the Company’s actual performance relative to the performance goals established by the compensation committee. Each achievement percentage is then subject to a multiplier. If actual total revenues for the performance period exceeds or falls below the performance goal established by the compensation committee for such performance period, each 0.1% achievement above or below the performance goal increases or reduces the revenue achievement percentage by 1.0%, respectively. However, if actual total revenues does not equal or exceed 95% of the revenue performance goal, then the achievement percentage for total revenue would be reduced to zero. If actual Adjusted EBITDA exceeds or falls below the performance goal established by the compensation committee for such performance period, each 0.1% achievement above or below the performance goal increases or reduces the Adjusted EBITDA achievement percentage by 0.2%, respectively. Additionally, if actual Adjusted EBITDA is less than 100% of the Adjusted EBITDA performance goal, then the achievement percentage for total Adjusted EBITDA is capped at 90%.

After the achievement percentage for each performance goal has been computed as described above, the percentages are weighted according to the weightings the compensation committee ascribed to each performance goal to determine the payout percentage. Furthermore, if the weighted average of the total revenue and Adjusted EBITDA achievement percentages, without regard to the respective multipliers, is less than 50%, no cash incentive compensation will be paid. In addition, each named executive officers’ cash incentive compensation is subject to a maximum payout equal to 150% of the named executive officer’s target annual cash incentive compensation opportunity, and the compensation committee reserved discretion to reduce the bonus payout percentage.

The Fiscal 2026 Executive Bonus Plan allows for the discretion of the compensation committee to adjust a named executive officer’s cash incentive compensation based on individual results, performance and contributions during the performance period and other factors, and actual cash incentive compensation paid to the named executive officers is predominantly based on the Company’s performance relative to the performance goals established by the compensation committee.

For fiscal 2026, total revenue was $446.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA was $107.3 million, and the resulting payout percentages were calculated as follows:


Performance Goal	Performance Goal Weighting		Percentage of Target Achievement		Percentage of Target Payout
Total Revenue	50	%	98.80	%	46.40	%
Adjusted EBITDA	50	%	103.22	%	56.43	%
Payout Percentage					102.83	%

In addition, in connection with the adoption of the Fiscal 2026 Executive Bonus Plan, the compensation committee established a separate pool of discretionary cash incentive compensation. Senior executives that participate in the Fiscal 2026 Executive Bonus Plan including the named executive officers other than our Chief Executive Officer are eligible for discretionary cash incentive compensation upon the recommendation of our Chief Executive Officer and approval by our compensation committee. The discretionary cash incentive compensation pool would only be funded up to a maximum of ten percent of the total cash incentive compensation pool, if the weighted average of the total revenue and Adjusted EBITDA achievement percentages, without regard to the respective multipliers, exceeded 50%.

Accordingly, the cash incentive compensation payable to the named executive officers under the Fiscal 2026 Executive Bonus Plan was:


Named Executive Officer						Fiscal 2026 Executive Bonus Plan Cash Incentive Compensation Payable ($)
Michael Walrath						503,608
Darryl Bond						327,944
Ho Shin						208,304

Equity Awards

We grant equity awards with multi-year vesting provisions to incentivize and reward our named executive officers for long-term corporate performance based on the value of our common stock and, thereby, to align the interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders. Since the completion of our initial public offering, our equity awards have generally been made in the form of restricted stock units, or RSU, awards that are settled in shares of our common stock. Equity awards are generally subject to vesting over a two to five-year period based on continued employment, with awards generally subject to vesting in equal quarterly increments. We believe the time-based vesting requirement of our long-term equity incentive awards promotes retention by providing an incentive for our named executive officers to remain in our employment throughout the vesting period.

The size of the equity awards that we grant to our named executive officers in connection with their hire is determined through arm’s-length negotiation, taking into account such factors as the named executive officer’s prospective role and responsibilities, the named executive officer’s expected cash compensation, the equity award’s potential incentive and retention value, survey data on the size of new-hire awards provided by similar companies to similarly-situated employees, and prevailing market conditions. On a periodic basis, most often annually, we also grant equity awards to our named executive officers as additional incentive to continue service with us or to recognize exceptional corporate and individual performance.

Fiscal 2026 Equity Awards

At the start of fiscal 2026, the compensation committee reviewed our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation since he started in the role in fiscal 2023. Given Mr. Walrath’s compensation opportunities had historically been in the form of performance-based equity compensation with no cash compensation, his realized pay from fiscal 2023 through fiscal 2025 was zero while his reported grant value in the proxy statement compensation tables reflected an average of approximately $6.3 million in average compensation over each of those three fiscal years. In light of that disparity, the compensation

committee desired to provide him compensation, equally balanced between time and performance at the targeted level with ability for upside for achievement in goals over which management had more direct impact. Further, the time horizon for the fiscal 2026 equity awards to our Chief Executive Officer was intentionally determined to be a shorter period of two years to recognize Mr. Walrath’s contributions and performance to date as well as the lack of realized value from earlier grants to date.

With these considerations in mind, on March 12, 2025, the compensation committee approved the grant of 625,000 time-based RSUs to Mr. Walrath. One-eighth of the shares subject to these RSU awards vested on June 20, 2025 and vest quarterly thereafter on each of September 20, December 20, March 20, and June 20, subject to Mr. Walrath’s continued service to us on each such vesting date. On March 12, 2025, the compensation committee also approved the grant of 625,000 performance-based restricted stock units, or PSUs, to Mr. Walrath. Mr. Walrath’s PSUs will be eligible to vest based upon achievement of a combination of performance as measured using a measurement in growth of our reported annual recurring revenue, or ARR, and a “Rule of 40” summation of the percentage growth in our reported ARR and Adjusted EBITDA Margins over two performance periods, one for fiscal year 2026 and one for fiscal year 2027. 50% of the total target PSUs will be eligible to be earned in each performance period, and the maximum number of PSUs that may become eligible to vest in connection with achievement in excess of the target will be no more than 250% of the target number of PSUs. The PSUs that become eligible to vest with respect to a performance period will vest on March 20 following the end of that performance period, subject to Mr. Walrath’s continued service through that date. The grant of RSUs and PSUs are intended to supplement Mr. Walrath’s existing grants and incentivize and retain Mr. Walrath in his capacity as our Chief Executive Officer.

In fiscal 2026, the compensation committee reviewed market data and analysis of the named executive officers’ (other than our Chief Executive Officer’s) unvested equity awards in the second quarter of the fiscal year. On June 5, 2025, our compensation committee approved the grant of annual time‑based RSU awards to Messrs. Bond and Shin covering 300,000 and 185,000 shares, respectively, in accordance with our historical practices. One-eighth of shares subject to these RSU awards vested on March 20, 2026 and vest quarterly thereafter on each of June 20, September 20, December 20, and March 20, subject to Mr. Bond’s or Mr. Shin’s continued service to us on each such vesting date.

On June 5, 2025, our compensation committee also approved the grant of PSUs to Messrs. Bond and Shin, covering 60,000 and 40,000 shares, respectively. These PSUs are eligible to vest on the same terms and schedule as Mr. Walrath’s PSU grant that was issued on March 12, 2025.

To determine the size of the fiscal 2026 RSU and PSU awards to our named executive officers, the compensation committee considered many factors such as the competitiveness of the equity awards based on market data provided by the compensation committee’s consultant, including the market 50th and 75th percentile; the economic value of the named executive officer’s unvested equity awards and the ability of this equity to satisfy our retention objectives; the named executive officer’s performance, contributions, responsibilities, and experience; the equity award recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer (except with respect to his awards); and the alignment of each named executive officer’s interest with those of shareholders in maximizing shareholder value. To assess the competitiveness of the proposed equity award, as one relevant factor in the analysis, the compensation committee reviewed each named executive officer’s intended total direct compensation on an annual basis over a multi-year period, which includes the projected value of current and proposed equity awards vesting in each year, applying a share price growth assumption to those awards.

The vesting of all equity awards granted to our named executive officers in fiscal 2026 may be accelerated upon the termination of their employment under certain circumstances, as described under “Executive Compensation—Named Executive Officer Employment Agreements” and “—Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control”. See “Executive Compensation—Summary Compensation Table” and “—Grants of Plan-Based Awards” for further details about these awards.

Equity Granting Practices

We do not grant equity awards on a predetermined schedule, but typically approve equity awards either at regularly scheduled meetings of our board of directors or during an open trading window. We have not granted, nor do we intend to grant, stock options in anticipation of the release of material, nonpublic information that is likely to result in changes to the price of our common stock, such as a significant positive or negative earnings announcement, and, we have not taken, nor do we intend to take, material nonpublic information into account when determining the terms of stock options. Similarly, we

have not timed, nor do we intend to time, the release of material, nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation or for any other purpose.

Previously Granted Performance-Based Equity Awards Earned in Fiscal 2026

Mike Walrath 2024 rTSR Award

On January 12, 2024, the compensation committee approved the grant of 1,250,000 PSUs at target level achievement under the 2016 Plan to Michael Walrath. A target number of 1,250,000 PSUs will become eligible to vest in up to two installments based on the total shareholder return of the Company (“Company TSR”) during each of the following performance periods (each, a “Performance Period”) relative to the total shareholder return of companies in the S&P Software and Services Select Index (the “Indexed Companies”): (i) December 19, 2023 to March 31, 2025 (“Performance Period One”); and (ii) December 19, 2023 to March 31, 2026 (“Performance Period Two”). The starting Company TSR for both the Company and the Indexed Companies shall be calculated based on the respective 30-trading day average closing price ending with December 19, 2023, and the ending Company TSR will be calculated based on the respective 30-trading day average closing price ending with the last trading day of the applicable Performance Period. The total number of PSUs that will be eligible to vest range from 0% to 200% (the “Achievement Percentage”) of the target number of PSUs. One half of the PSUs will be eligible to vest as a result of performance for each of Performance Period One and Performance Period Two. The Achievement Percentage of the target number of PSUs that may vest are (i) 0% if Company TSR ranks below the 40th percentile of the Indexed Companies, (ii) 50% if Company TSR ranks at or above the 40th percentile but below the 60th percentile of the Indexed Companies, (iii) 100% if Company TSR ranks at the 60th percentile of the Indexed Companies, and (iv) 200% if Company TSR ranks at the 75th percentile of the Indexed Companies. If Company TSR ranks between these percentile thresholds, the Achievement Percentage of the target number of PSUs that may vest is determined using linear interpolation.

Performance Period One completed during fiscal 2026. The Company’s TSR for Performance Period One was 1.79% resulting in the Company achieving in approximately the 45th percentile of Indexed Companies and a 62.7% payout multiplier for Performance Period One. Thus, Mr. Walrath earned 391,875 shares in fiscal 2026 for Performance Period One (62.7% of 625,000).

Rule of 40 Grants

As described above, half of the Rule of 40 grants to Messrs. Walrath, Bond and Shin were eligible to vest based on performance goals for fiscal 2026. For fiscal 2026, the target for 100% achievement was a combination of percentage growth in reported ARR and Adjusted EBITDA Margins equal to 23. Maximum 150% achievement was a score of 28. The Company’s achieved percentage growth of: (i) ARR of 0.36% and (ii) Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 24.03% resulting in a score of 24.39. In addition to achievement based the score, the actual payout is multiplied upward or downward based on ARR growth with no multiplier occurring at 0% ARR growth and up to an additional 100% payout for ARR growth of 10%. Based on the score of 24.39 and ARR growth of 0.36%, our named executive officers achieved 117.46% payout for fiscal 2026. Thus, for the Rule of 40 grants for fiscal 2026, (i) Mr. Walrath earned 367,062 shares, (ii) Mr. Bond earned 35,238 shares, and (iii) Mr. Shin earned 23,492 shares.

Severance and Change of Control

Our Board of Directors has adopted a change of control and severance policy, which applies to our named executive officers other than our Chief Executive Officer. The material terms of this policy and the change of control provisions in our equity incentive plans are set forth in “Executive Compensation—Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control” below.

Other Compensation and Benefits

We maintain a tax‑qualified retirement plan, or the 401(k) plan, that provides eligible employees with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax‑advantaged basis. See “Executive Compensation—401(k) Plan” below.

Participation in the 2017 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) is available to all named executive officers on the same basis as our other U.S. employees. However, any named executive officers who would become 5% stockholders as a

result of their participation in the ESPP or who hold rights to purchase shares of our common stock under all of our employee stock purchase plans that accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 worth of shares of our common stock for each calendar year that the offering cycle is in effect, are ineligible to participate in the ESPP in excess of such accrued amount. Under the ESPP, participants may purchase the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions, up to a maximum of 15% of their eligible compensation, subject to a maximum of 10,000 shares of common stock during a purchase period. A new offering period will commence on the first trading day on or after March 15th and September 15th each year, or on such other date as the administrator will determine and will end on the first trading day, approximately six months later, on or after September 15th and March 15th, respectively. The number of shares participants may purchase is variable, as participants may purchase as many shares as the full amount of their withholdings will permit, based on the purchase price. Unless changed by the administrator, the purchase price for each share of common stock purchased under the ESPP will be 85% of the lower of the fair market value per share on the first trading day of the applicable offering period or the fair market value per share on the last trading day of the applicable offering period.

Our named executive officers are also entitled to participate in the employee benefit plans that are available to our U.S.-based, full-time employees, on the same terms and conditions as such other employees participate. These benefit plans include health, dental and vision insurance; medical and dependent care flexible spending accounts; short- and long-term disability insurance; and life insurance, which are generally consistent with those offered by companies that we compete with for employees.

Insider Trading Policy

We have adopted an insider trading policy governing the purchase, sale and other dispositions of our securities by our directors, officers, employees and agents that we believe is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and applicable NYSE listing standards. A copy of our insider trading policy is filed with our Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition, with regard to the Company’s trading in its own securities, it is our policy to comply with the federal securities laws and the applicable NYSE listing standards.

Prohibition on Hedging and Pledging Transactions

Our insider trading policy prohibits our named executive officers from engaging in the following activities with respect to our common stock: short sales, trading in derivative securities, hedging transactions, pledging stock as collateral, or holding stock in a margin account.

Clawback Policy

We adopted a clawback policy in 2023 pursuant to Rule 10D-1 of the Exchange Act. Under our clawback policy, our compensation committee, the independent members of our Board of Directors, or another committee of the Board of Directors made up of independent members of the Board of Directors may seek to recover cash or equity compensation, or severance or termination payments, paid to an executive officer or certain other direct reports to our CEO in the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding an accounting restatement as a result of material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement under applicable securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 162(m)”) generally limits the amount of our federal income tax deductions for compensation paid to our Chief Executive Officer and certain of our most highly-compensated executive officers in any taxable year to $1 million per person. Beginning on or after January 1, 2027, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 will further expand the applicability of Section 162(m) to include the next five highest paid corporate officers.

Our compensation committee has not adopted a policy that requires that all compensation paid to our named executive officers be fully deductible. Our compensation committee is aware of the benefit of being able to fully deduct the compensation paid to our named executive officers, but our compensation committee intends to continue to compensate our

named executive officers consistent with the best interests of our Company and our stockholders even if such compensation is not fully deductible because our compensation committee believes that we must retain the flexibility to compensate our named executive officers in a manner that best promotes our business objectives.

“Parachute Payments” and Deferred Compensation

Certain service providers may be subject to an excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code if they receive payments or benefits in connection with a change in control that exceeds certain prescribed limits, and we, or a successor, may forfeit a deduction on the amounts subject to this excise tax under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code. Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”) imposes significant additional taxes on a service provider if the service provider receives “deferred compensation” that does not meet the requirements of Section 409A.

We do not provide (and did not have any agreements or obligations to provide) any of our named executive officers with a “gross-up” payment or other reimbursement for any excise tax liability that he might owe under Section 4999 or for any additional tax that he might owe under Section 409A.

Accounting Considerations

Authoritative accounting guidance on stock compensation requires measurement of the compensation expense for all share-based awards made to employees (such as our named executive officers) and directors based on the grant date “fair value” of the awards. Even though our named executive officers and directors may never realize any value from their equity awards, these values have been calculated for accounting purposes and reported in the tables below. This guidance also requires us to recognize the compensation cost of share-based awards in our income statements over the period that the named executive officer or director is required to continue service with us in order to vest in the equity award.

Compensation Committee Report

The compensation committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis included in this proxy statement with management and, based on such review and discussions, the compensation committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be incorporated by reference in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2026 and included in this proxy statement.

Option Exercises and Stock Vested

The following table presents, for each named executive officer, the shares of our common stock that were acquired upon the exercise of stock options or vesting of RSUs and the related value realized during fiscal 2026.


	Option Awards			Stock Awards
Name	Number of Shares Acquired on Exercise (#)	Value Realized on Exercise(1)		Number of Shares Acquired on Vesting (#)	Value Realized on Vesting(2)
Michael Walrath	—	$	—	626,250	$	5,136,663
Darryl Bond	15,000	$	54,750	561,500	$	4,533,399
Ho Shin	—	$	—	334,500	$	2,704,747

(1)The value realized on exercise is pre-tax and represents the difference between the fair market value of the common stock underlying the options on the date of exercise and the applicable exercise price.

(2)The value realized on vesting is pre-tax and is determined by multiplying the closing market price per share of our common stock on the business day prior to vesting date by the number of shares that vested.

401(k) Plan

We maintain a tax‑qualified retirement plan, or the 401(k) Plan, that provides eligible employees, including our named executive officers, with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax‑advantaged basis. Eligible employees are able to participate in the 401(k) Plan on the date they meet the 401(k) Plan’s eligibility requirements. All participants’ interests in their deferrals are 100% vested when contributed. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) Plan and earnings on those contributions are not taxable to our employees until they are distributed from the 401(k) Plan, and any contributions we make are deductible by us when they are made. On January 1, 2019, we began making matching contributions to eligible participants. We currently match 25% of eligible contributions made to the 401(k) Plan by our employees up to a maximum of approximately $1,400 per fiscal year. Such matching contributions vest 50% after one year of service and are fully vested after two years of service.

Pension Benefits

We do not maintain any pension plan or arrangement under which our named executive officers are entitled to participate or receive post-retirement benefits.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation

We do not maintain any non-qualified deferred compensation plans or arrangements under which our named executive officers are entitled to participate.

CEO Pay Ratio

As required by Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our employees and the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer. For fiscal 2026:

•As disclosed in the “Summary Compensation Table” above, the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer for fiscal 2026 was $8,693,973; and

•the annual total compensation of our median employee for fiscal 2026 was approximately $182,038.

Based on this information, for fiscal 2026, the ratio of our Chief Executive Officer’s annual total compensation to the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees was approximately 48:1.

We identified the median employee based on examination of compensation data for all employees other than our Chief Executive Officer as of November 1, 2025 (the “determination date”). First, in determining our employee population, we considered the individuals, excluding our Chief Executive Officer, who were employed by us and our consolidated subsidiaries on the determination date based on our payroll records. Further, we did not exclude any non-U.S. employees under the de minimis exception set forth in Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K. To identify our median employee, we chose to use as our consistently applied compensation measure annual base salary (including annual target commissions for sales employees) and the grant date fair value of equity awards, in each case, for the 12-month period preceding the determination date. For employees paid other than in U.S. dollars, we converted their compensation to U.S. dollars using the average applicable exchange rates in effect on the determination date. Consistent with fiscal 2025, our compensation measure for fiscal 2026 was annual base pay and commissions. We did not make any cost-of-living adjustments. Once we applied our consistently applied compensation measure, we omitted anyone from being the median employee if they had not served for one full calendar year; we did not think a person who had served less than one year would have representative compensation as a median employee. Once we identified our median employee, we then calculated the annual total compensation for this individual consistent with the methodology used to calculate the annual total compensation for our Chief Executive Officer in the “Summary Compensation Table” above in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

This pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with the SEC’s rules and regulations, based on our records and the methodology described above. The SEC’s rules and regulations for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies and to use reasonable estimates and assumptions based on their own facts and circumstances. As such, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may utilize different estimates, assumptions, and methodologies in calculating their own pay ratios.

Named Executive Officer Employment Arrangements

We have entered into a confirmatory employment letter with each of our named executive officers. The confirmatory employment letters have no specific term and provide that each named executive officer is an at‑will employee. The confirmatory employment letters also set forth the named executive officer’s initial base salary, initial annual target incentive payment and eligibility for the Company’s customary benefit plans, subject to the terms and conditions of such plans and programs. Each named executive officer is eligible for severance and change of control‑related benefits as described under “—Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control— Change of Control and Severance Policy.”

Michael Walrath Letter Amendment

On January 12, 2024, the Company entered into a letter amendment agreement with Michael Walrath. The letter amendment agreement provides that if the Company terminates Mr. Walrath’s employment other than for cause, death or disability, as such terms are defined in our Change of Control and Severance Policy (the “Policy”), other than during the period from 60 days prior to until twelve months following a change of control, as defined in the Policy, Mr. Walrath will be eligible to receive the following severance benefits, less applicable tax withholdings: $250,000 payable in equal installments over 6 months; a $500,000 lump sum cash amount prorated based on the number of days the named executive officer was actually employed during the fiscal year in which the termination of employment occurred; and payment or reimbursement of continued health coverage for Mr. Walrath and his dependents under COBRA for a period of up to twelve months. To receive the severance benefits upon a qualifying termination, Mr. Walrath must sign and not revoke the Company’s standard separation agreement and release of claims within the timeframe set forth in the letter amendment agreement and must continue to adhere to his non-competition, non-disclosure, and invention assignment agreement.

Revised Chief Executive Officer Compensation

On March 12, 2025, the compensation committee of our Board of Directors approved revised cash and equity compensation arrangements for Michael Walrath, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors. The cash compensation arrangements consist of (i) an annual base salary of $550,000 and (ii) a target annual cash incentive compensation of 100% of Mr. Walrath’s salary. Prior to these arrangements, Mr. Walrath did not receive a cash salary from the Company. The equity compensation arrangements consist of (i) an award of 625,000 RSUs, and (ii) an award of 625,000 PSUs, each pursuant to the 2016 Plan (for further information regarding these equity awards, “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Executive Compensation Program Components—Equity Awards” above). In the case of a change of control, the greater of the target number of PSUs or the number of PSUs that would be eligible to vest based on pro-rated performance prior to the change of control with respect to each performance period not completed as of such time will become eligible to vest, and will vest on the scheduled vesting date, subject to Mr. Walrath’s continued service. Notwithstanding any service-based vesting terms, if Mr. Walrath’s employment is terminated as a result of his death or disability, a termination of Mr. Walrath’s employment by the Company other than for cause, or, following a change in control, a termination of Mr. Walrath’s employment by Mr. Walrath for good reason, Mr. Walrath will be eligible for acceleration of 100% of the then-unvested RSUs and 100% of the greater of the target number of PSUs or the number of PSUs that would be eligible to vest based on pro-rated performance prior to the termination with respect to each performance period not completed as of such time.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

Change of Control and Severance Policy

Our Board of Directors adopted the Policy, which applies to each of our named executive officers other than Mr. Walrath. The Policy has a term of three years generally and automatically renews for additional one‑year terms, unless we provide notice of non‑renewal at least 60 days prior to the date of the automatic renewal. Under the Policy, if we terminate a named executive officer’s employment other than for cause, death or disability or the named executive officer resigns for good reason, as such terms are defined in the Policy, during the period from 60 days prior to until twelve months following a change of control, as defined in the Policy, with such period being referred to as the change of control period, such named executive officer will be eligible to receive the following severance benefits, less applicable tax withholdings:

•100% of the named executive officer’s then‑outstanding and unvested time‑based equity awards will become vested and exercisable;

•a lump sum cash amount equal to six months of the named executive officer’s base salary;

•a lump sum cash amount equal to (x) 100% of the named executive officer’s target annual bonus plus (y) the named executive officer’s target annual bonus as in effect for the fiscal year in which the named executive officer’s termination occurs but prorated based on the number of days the named executive officer was actually employed during the fiscal year; and

•payment or reimbursement of continued health coverage for the named executive officer and the named executive officer’s dependents under COBRA for a period of up to six months.

Further, under the Policy, if we terminate a named executive officer’s employment other than for cause, death or disability or such named executive officer resigns for good reason any time other than during the change of control period, such named executive officer will be eligible to receive the following severance benefits, less applicable tax withholdings: 15% of the named executive officer’s then-outstanding and unvested time-based equity awards will become vested and exercisable; continued payments of base salary for six months; a lump sum cash amount equal to the named executive officer’s target annual bonus as in effect for the fiscal year in which the named executive officer’s termination occurs but prorated based on the number of days the named executive officer was actually employed during the fiscal year; and payment or reimbursement of continued health coverage for the named executive officer and the named executive officer’s dependents under COBRA for a period of up to six months. To receive the severance benefits upon a qualifying termination, either in connection with or not in connection with a change of control, a named executive officer must sign and not revoke our standard separation agreement and release of claims within the timeframe set forth in the Policy and must continue to adhere to the named executive officer’s non-competition, non-disclosure, and invention assignment agreement.

If any of the payments provided for under the Policy or otherwise payable to a named executive officer would constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code and would be subject to the related excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, then the named executive officer will be entitled to receive either full payment of benefits or such lesser amount which would result in no portion of the benefits being subject to the excise tax, whichever results in the greater amount of after-tax benefits to the named executive officer.

Walrath Severance Benefits

Mr. Walrath is eligible for severance and change of control‑related benefits as described above under “—Named Executive Officer Employment Arrangements—Michael Walrath Letter Amendment” and “—Named Executive Officer Employment Arrangements—Revised Chief Executive Officer Compensation”.

Named Executive Officer PSUs

On June 5, 2025, the compensation committee of our Board of Directors approved the grant of PSUs to Messrs. Bond and Shin, pursuant to the 2016 Plan (for further information regarding these equity awards, “Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Executive Compensation Program Components—Equity Awards” above). In the case of a change of control, the greater of the target number of PSUs or the number of PSUs that would be eligible to vest based on pro-rated performance prior to the change of control with respect to each performance period not completed as of such time will become eligible to vest, and will vest on the scheduled vesting date, subject to the named executive officer’s continued service. If, within the Change of Control Period (as defined in the Policy), the named executive officer’s employment is terminated as a result of his death or disability, the Company terminates the named executive officer’s employment other than for cause, or the named executive officer terminates his employment for Good Reason (as such terms are defined in the Policy), all the PSUs eligible to vest will become immediately vested.

The following table reflects the potential payments and benefits to which our named executive officers would be entitled under the Policy, their awards of PSUs, and in the case of Mr. Walrath, under his letter amendment agreement, assuming that both a change in control if applicable and termination of employment occurred on January 31, 2026.

(1)A “qualified termination” and “change of control period” have the meanings set forth in the Policy as summarized above under “—Change of Control and Severance Policy.”

(2)Based on the closing price of a share of common stock on January 30, 2026.

(3)In the event that stock price targets related to Mr. Walrath’s 2022 award of PSUs are satisfied in connection with a change of control, the applicable service-based vesting requirement will be accelerated. Based on the closing price of a share of common stock on January 30, 2026, no stock price targets would be satisfied. In the event the Company TSR targets related to Mr. Walrath’s 2024 award of PSUs are met in the shortened performance period resulting from a change in control or Mr. Walrath’s death or disability or termination by the Company without cause during an applicable performance period, the shares earned will vest immediately. Based on the Company TSR for the relevant period ending on January 31, 2026, a payout at 154.28% of the TSR targets for the second performance period would be achieved.

(4)Mr. Walrath is entitled to cash severance and continued health coverage benefits in the event his employment is terminated by the Company other than for “cause,” death or “disability,” as such terms are defined in the Policy as summarized above under “—Change of Control and Severance Policy.”

(5)In the event of a change of control or a qualified termination during the change of control period (or, in the case of Mr. Walrath, termination due to death, disability, or by the Company without cause during an applicable performance period), the greater of the target number of PSUs or the number of PSUs that would be eligible to vest based on pro-rated performance prior to the change of control with respect to each performance period not completed as of such time will become eligible to vest. Based on the Company’s reported ARR and “Rule of 40” achievement for the first performance period ending on January 31, 2026, a payout at approximately 117.46% of the relevant target number of PSUs would be achieved.

Equity Incentive Plans

2016 Equity Incentive Plan. Our 2016 Plan, provides that in the event of a merger or change in control, as defined in the 2016 Plan, each outstanding award will be treated as the administrator determines, including that the successor corporation or its parent or subsidiary will assume or substitute an equivalent award for each outstanding award, except that if a successor corporation or its parent or subsidiary does not assume or substitute an equivalent award for any outstanding award, then such award will fully vest, all restrictions on such award will lapse, all performance goals or other vesting criteria applicable to such award will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels and such award will become fully exercisable, if applicable, for a specified period prior to the transaction, unless specifically provided for otherwise under the applicable award agreement or other written agreement with the participant. The award will then terminate upon the expiration of the specified period of time. If an option or stock appreciation right is not assumed or substituted, the administrator will notify the participant in writing or electronically that such option or stock appreciation right will be exercisable for a period of time determined by the administrator in its sole discretion and the option or stock appreciation right will terminate upon the expiration of such period.

If an outside director’s awards are assumed or substituted for in a merger or change in control and the service of such outside director is terminated on or following a change in control, other than pursuant to a voluntary resignation, his or her options and stock appreciation rights, if any, will vest fully and become immediately exercisable, all restrictions on his or her restricted stock and restricted stock units will lapse and all performance goals or other vesting requirements for his or her performance shares and units will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels, and all other terms and conditions met.

2008 Equity Incentive Plan. Our 2008 Equity Incentive Plan, or 2008 Plan, provides that in the event of a change in control, as defined under the 2008 Plan, the administrator may, in its sole and absolute discretion and wi
