Managing the supply of our products and underlying components is complex and has become increasingly difficult, in part, due to component quality, component scarcity, increased global demand, and inflationary pressure. Our supply chain has been, and may continue to be adversely impacted by component cost increases in our supply chain. In response to these cost increases, we raised our prices during the first quarter of fiscal year 2027, which may result in reduced sales or the loss of customers, and adversely impact our business and results of operations. We enter into agreements with our suppliers to provide components at specified prices, volume, and timing. Our suppliers have in the past, and may in the future, seek to renegotiate terms of our supply agreements. Furthermore, in the current environment of increased global demand and component scarcity, suppliers may lack the capacity to allocate the necessary volume of components to meet our manufacturing requirements. If our suppliers fail to perform their obligations or if they are unable or refuse to provide components to us at the specified prices, volumes, or at the times that we have agreed upon, or if they are simply unable to allocate the volume of components that we need, we may be unable to secure alternate supply on commercially reasonable terms or within our required timeframes. As a result, we could face component shortages, higher component costs, manufacturing disruptions, longer customer lead times and delays in shipping our products, or lost sales opportunities altogether. Such a disruption could cause us to miss revenue opportunities, damage our relationships with customers and partners, and negatively impact our reputation. A significant or sustained supply chain failure of this nature could adversely affect our business, financial condition, product margins, results of operations, and prospects.

In addition, to scale our supply chain, we must manage our supply and inventory effectively, including ensuring a sufficient supply of flash to support our hyperscaler customer. If our hyperscale customer reduces its demand for our flash storage solutions, we may be obligated to fulfill component purchase commitments. If we are unable to effectively manage our supply and inventory, including the supply of flash necessary to fulfill potential hyperscaler demand, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

AddedRisk Factors
During fiscal 2026, the cost of our components increased significantly, and we anticipate continued component pricing volatility throughout fiscal 2027. Elevated global demand for the components used in our products has made future cost fluctuations highly unpredictable. We maintain supply agreements with our component suppliers that help mitigate, but do not eliminate, significant component cost volatility. While we implemented product price increases during the first quarter of fiscal 2027 to help offset these rising expenses, ongoing component cost volatility has placed, and may continue to place, downward pressure on our gross margins.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was enacted in the United States; while certain provisions reduced our current tax expense, future interpretations or changes in guidance could materially affect our cash tax obligations, deferred tax positions, and effective tax rate over time.

Many countries around the world are beginning to implement legislation and other guidance to align their international tax rules with the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)’s Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) recommendations and related action plans that aim to standardize and modernize global corporate tax policy, including changes to cross-border tax, transfer-pricing documentation rules and nexus-based tax incentive practices. As part of these broader BEPS initiatives, many jurisdictions are now implementing the OECD’s Pillar Two global minimum tax framework, which introduces a 15% minimum effective tax rate for large multinational groups. Certain countries in which we operate have enacted legislation adopting Pillar Two, and additional jurisdictions continue to issue guidance or consider implementing similar rules. In January 2026, the OECD released a “side‑by‑side” administrative package introducing new safe harbors and potential relief for certain U.S.-parented multinational groups. While the impact of Pillar Two has not been material to date, differences in jurisdictional implementation, the expiration of transition relief, or changes in our global tax profile could increase our effective tax rate, cash tax payments, or compliance costs in future periods. We continue to monitor developments across the jurisdictions in which we operate.

Everpure, formerly known as Pure Storage, is a global technology company providing an integrated storage and data management platform. Data is foundational to our customers’ business transformation and increasingly central to their operational resilience and competitive differentiation. As data volumes expand and artificial intelligence (AI) becomes more deeply embedded in customers' operations, the ability to store, manage, govern, and derive greater value from their data is becoming as important as the infrastructure used to store it.

We use Subscription NDR as an indicator of our ability to successfully expand and grow revenue within our existing customer base on an annual basis. Our Subscription NDR, which approximates the year-over-year percentage growth in ARR from the same cohort of existing customers across comparable fiscal periods, was 117% and 113% for the fiscal years ended 2025 and 2026. Our Subscription NDR is calculated by dividing the current fiscal year-end ARR by the corresponding prior year-end ARR, for those customers with an active ARR balance as of a year ago. Current fiscal year-end ARR includes existing customer expansion, net of contraction and churn, but excludes ARR from new customers acquired in the current fiscal year period.

The decrease in provision for income taxes during fiscal 2026 compared to fiscal 2025 was primarily driven by a decrease in U.S. taxable income due to the enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), which removed the requirement for domestic research and development capitalization under Section 174.

In June 2025, we entered into a Credit Agreement with a consortium of financial institutions and lenders that provides for a five-year, senior unsecured revolving credit facility of $500.0 million (Credit Facility) that expires on June 10, 2030, unless otherwise extended. Proceeds from borrowings under the Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes and working capital. The Credit Facility replaced our prior $300.0 million revolving credit facility in which the outstanding borrowings of $100.0 million was repaid in full and terminated effective June 10, 2025.
