Description of Capital Stock

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK The following summary describes our capital stock and certain provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws, which will become effective immediately prior to the completion of this offering, the amended and restated investors’ rights agreement to which we and certain of our stockholders are parties, and of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Because the following is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. For a complete description, you should refer to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, amended and restated bylaws, and amended and restated investors’ rights agreement, copies of which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is part. General Immediately following the completion of this offering, our authorized capital stock will consist of 3,500,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, 240,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, 100,000,000 shares of Class N common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, and 100,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, par value $0.00001 per share. As of December 31, 2025, after giving effect to (i) the filing and effectiveness of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, (ii) the Preferred Stock Conversion, (iii) the Common Stock Reclassification, and (iv) the RSU Net Settlement, there were                 shares of our Class B common stock outstanding, held by stockholders of record, and no shares of our Class A common stock, Class N common stock, or preferred stock outstanding. Common Stock Immediately following the completion of this offering, we will have three classes of authorized common stock: Class A common stock, Class B common stock, and Class N common stock. The rights of holders of Class A common stock, Class B common stock, and Class N common stock will be identical, except with respect to voting and conversion rights. Voting Rights Each holder of our Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share, each holder of our Class B common stock is entitled to 20 votes per share, and each holder of our Class N common stock is entitled to no votes per share. The holders of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock will generally vote as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, unless otherwise required by Delaware law or our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. Delaware law could require holders of our Class A common stock, Class B common stock, or Class N common stock to vote separately as a single class in the following circumstances: •if we were to seek to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to increase or decrease the par value of a class of our capital stock, then that class would be required to vote separately to approve the proposed amendment; and •if we were to seek to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation in a manner that alters or changes the powers, preferences, or special rights of a class of our capital stock in a manner that affected its holders adversely, then that class would be required to vote separately to approve the proposed amendment. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting for the election of directors. As a result, the holders of a majority of shares of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock can elect all of the directors then standing for election. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation establishes a classified board of directors, to be divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Only one class of directors will be elected at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms.

Conversion Rights Class B Common Stock Each share of Class B common stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into one share of Class A common stock. Following the completion of this offering and prior to the Final Conversion Date (as defined below), each share of Class B common stock will convert automatically into one share of Class A common stock upon sale or transfer, except for certain permitted transfers, as set forth in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, including estate planning or other transfers among our Founders (as defined below) and their permitted entities and permitted transferees. In addition, each share of our Class B common stock held by a Founder will convert automatically into one share of our Class A common stock on the earlier of (i) the death or incapacity of such Founder or (ii) the date that is six months following the date on which such Founder is no longer an employee or director of our company (unless such Founder has rejoined our company during such six-month period). In addition, all outstanding shares of Class B common stock will convert automatically into one share of Class A common stock on the date that is six months following the date on which no Founder is an employee or director of our company (unless a Founder has rejoined our company during such six-month period). We refer to the date on which such final conversion of all outstanding shares of Class B common stock pursuant to the terms of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation occurs as the “Final Conversion Date,” and we refer to each of Andrew D. Feldman, Sean Lie, Jean-Philippe Fricker, and Michael James as the “Founders.” Once converted into Class A common stock, the Class B common stock will not be reissued. Class N Common Stock Each share of Class N common stock will convert automatically into one share of Class A common stock upon any transfer, whether or not for value, except for certain permitted transfers, as set forth in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. Permitted transferees include entities under common control with or controlled by such holder of our Class N common stock or if the holder provides prior written notice to us electing for the transfer to not result in a conversion. Once converted into Class A common stock, the Class N common stock will not be reissued. Dividends Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding preferred stock, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of legally available funds; provided, however, that if a dividend is paid in the form of common stock (or rights to acquire, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, such shares), then the holders of the Class A common stock shall receive shares of Class A common stock (or rights to acquire, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, such shares, as the case may be), holders of the Class B common stock shall receive shares of Class B common stock (or rights to acquire, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, such shares, as the case may be), and holders of Class N common stock shall receive shares of Class N common stock (or rights to acquire, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, such shares, as the case may be), unless a disparate dividend treatment of the shares of each such class is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Class A common stock, Class B common stock, and Class N common stock, each voting separately as a class. Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions In the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities, subject to the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to the holders of any then outstanding shares of preferred stock.

No Preemptive or Similar Rights Our common stock is not entitled to preemptive rights and is not subject to redemption or sinking fund provisions. The rights, preferences, and privileges of the holders of our common stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of our preferred stock that we may designate in the future. Preferred Stock Pursuant to the provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, each currently outstanding share of redeemable convertible preferred stock will automatically be converted into one share of common stock effective upon the completion of this offering. Following this offering, no shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock will be outstanding. Following the completion of this offering, our board of directors will be authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by Delaware law, to issue preferred stock in one or more series, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences, and rights of the shares of each series and any of its qualifications, limitations, or restrictions, in each case without further vote or action by our stockholders. Our board of directors can also increase or decrease the number of shares of any series of preferred stock, but not below the number of shares of that series then outstanding, without any further vote or action by our stockholders. Our board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control of our company and might adversely affect the price of our common stock and the voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock. We have no current plans to issue any shares of preferred stock. Stock Options As of December 31, 2025, we had outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 28,361,707 shares of our Class B common stock, with a weighted-average exercise price of $4.97 per share, issued pursuant to the 2016 Plan. Restricted Stock Units As of December 31, 2025, we had outstanding RSUs representing 15,229,068 shares of our Class B common stock, issuable upon satisfaction of service-based and liquidity-based vesting conditions and issued pursuant to the 2016 Plan. In connection with the RSU Net Settlement, we will issue                 shares of our Class B common stock, after withholding an aggregate of an estimated                shares of Class B common stock, to satisfy associated estimated tax withholding and remittance obligations. Warrants As of December 31, 2025, we had an outstanding warrant to purchase up to 1,857,516 shares of our Class N common stock, with an exercise price of $0.01 per share, which was exercised in full in January 2026. As of December 31, 2025, we had an outstanding warrant to purchase up to 33,445,026 shares of our Class N common stock, with an exercise price of $0.00001 per share, pursuant to the OpenAI Warrant.

Registration Rights Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement Following the completion of this offering, and subject to the lock-up agreements entered into in connection with this offering and market standoff provisions, the holders of up to an aggregate of approximately                  shares of our common stock (excluding shares of our Class N common stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the OpenAI Warrant), or their permitted transferees, will be entitled to rights with respect to the registration of the Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of such shares under the Securities Act. These rights are provided under the terms of an amended and restated investors’ rights agreement between us and the holders of these shares, which was entered into in connection with our redeemable convertible preferred stock financings, and include Form S-1 and Form S-3 demand registration rights and piggyback registration rights. In any registration made pursuant to such amended and restated investors’ rights agreement, all fees, costs, and expenses of underwritten registrations will be borne by us and all selling expenses, including all underwriting discounts, selling commissions, and stock transfer taxes, will be borne by the holders of the shares being registered. We will not be required to bear the expenses in connection with the exercise of the demand registration rights of a registration if the request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the selling stockholders holding a majority of securities to be registered. In an underwritten public offering, the underwriters have the right, subject to specified conditions, to limit the number of shares such holders may include. The registration rights terminate upon the earliest of (i) upon a deemed liquidation event or stock sale, each as defined in the amended and restated investors’ rights agreement, (ii) five years following the completion of this offering, or (iii) at such time as any particular stockholder may sell all of its shares during any 90-day period pursuant to Rule 144 or another similar exemption under the Securities Act. Form S-1 Demand Registration Rights The holders of up to an aggregate of approximately                 shares of our common stock (excluding shares of our Class N common stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the OpenAI Warrant), or their permitted transferees, are entitled to Form S-1 demand registration rights. Under the terms of the amended and restated investors’ rights agreement, at any time beginning 180 days after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, the holders representing a majority of the then-outstanding shares that are entitled to registration rights can request that we file a registration statement on Form S-1 covering all or some of their shares as soon as practicable, and in any event within 90 days after the date of such request, if the aggregate price to the public of the shares offered is at least $25.0 million (net of underwriting discounts, selling commissions, and stock transfer taxes). We may be required to effect up to two registrations pursuant to this provision of the amended and restated investors’ rights agreement. We may postpone the filing of a registration statement once for up to 90 days in a 12-month period if our board of directors determines that the filing would be materially detrimental to us. We are not required to effect a Form S-1 demand registration under certain additional circumstances specified in the amended and restated investors’ rights agreement, including during the period beginning 60 days prior to our good faith estimate of the date of filing and ending on a date 180 days after the effective date of a registration statement filed by our initiation. Form S-3 Demand Registration Rights The holders of up to an aggregate of approximately                 shares of our common stock (excluding shares of our Class N common stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the OpenAI Warrant), or their permitted transferees, are also entitled to Form S-3 demand registration rights. Under the terms of the amended and restated investors’ rights agreement, at any time once we are eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, the holders representing a majority of the then-outstanding shares that are entitled to registration rights can request that we file a registration statement on Form S-3 covering all or some of their shares, as soon as practicable, and in any event within 45 days of such request, if the aggregate price to the public of the shares offered is at least $5.0 million (net of underwriting discounts, selling commissions, and stock transfer taxes). The holders may only require us to effect at most two registration statements on Form S-3 in any 12-month period. We may postpone the filing of a

182

Table o f Contents

registration statement once for up to 90 days in a 12-month period if our board of directors determines that the filing would be materially detrimental to us. We are not required to effect a Form S-3 registration under certain additional circumstances specified in the amended and restated investors’ rights agreement, including during the period beginning 30 days prior to our good faith estimate of the date of filing and ending on a date 90 days after the effective date of a registration statement filed by our initiation. Piggyback Registration Rights If we register any of our securities for public sale, holders of up to an aggregate of approximately shares of our common stock (excluding shares of our Class N common stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the OpenAI Warrant), or their permitted transferees, will have the right to include the Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of such shares in the registration statement. However, this right does not apply to a registration relating to the sale of securities pursuant to any company stock plan, a registration relating to an SEC Rule 145 transaction, a registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the common stock, or a registration in which the only common stock being registered is common stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered. The underwriters of any underwritten offering will have the right to limit the number of shares registered by these holders if they determine that marketing factors require limitation, in which case the number of shares to be registered will be apportioned pro rata among these holders, according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included by each holder. However, the number of shares to be registered by these holders cannot be reduced unless all other securities of such holders are first entirely excluded from the underwriting. OpenAI Registration Rights Agreement Following the completion of this offering, and subject to the lock-up agreements entered into in connection with this offering and market standoff provisions, OpenAI will be entitled, with respect to the shares of our Class N common stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the OpenAI Warrant, to rights with respect to the registration of these shares under the Securities Act. These rights are provided under the terms of a registration rights agreement between us and OpenAI, which was entered into in connection with the OpenAI Warrant, and includes Form S-3 demand registration rights and piggyback registration rights. In any registration made pursuant to such registration rights agreement, all fees, costs, and expenses of underwritten registrations will be borne by us and all underwriting discounts, selling commissions, applicable transfer taxes in connection with the sale of the securities under the registration statement, and the fees and disbursements of OpenAI’s counsel will be borne by OpenAI. We will not be required to bear the expenses in connection with the exercise of the demand registration rights of a registration if the request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of OpenAI. In an underwritten public offering, the underwriters have the right, subject to specified conditions, to limit the number of shares OpenAI may include. The registration rights terminate upon the earliest of (i) the three-year anniversary of the expiration date of the OpenAI warrant, (ii) December 24, 2032, or (iii) at such time as OpenAI ceases to hold shares of our Class N common stock issued pursuant to the OpenAI Warrant. Form S-3 Demand Registration Rights OpenAI is entitled to Form S-3 demand registration rights. Under the terms of the registration rights agreement, at any time once we are eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, OpenAI can request that we use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement on Form S-3 covering all or some of the shares of Class N common stock underlying the OpenAI Warrant within 30 days of such request, if the aggregate price to the public of the shares offered is at least $50.0 million (based on the market price of our Class A common stock as of the date of the demand request). OpenAI may only require us to effect one registration of all or a portion of its shares on an underwritten basis and one registration on a non-underwritten basis in any 12-month period, not to exceed a maximum of three registrations on an underwritten basis in the aggregate. We may postpone the filing of a registration statement twice for up to 75 days in any 12-month period or in the 12-month period prior to the expiration of OpenAI’s registration rights under the registration rights agreement if our board of directors determines that the filing would be materially detrimental to us. We are not required to effect a Form S-3 registration

under certain additional circumstances specified in the registration rights agreement, including during the period beginning 30 days prior to our good faith estimate of the date of filing and ending on a date 90 days after the effective date of a registration statement filed by our initiation. Piggyback Registration Rights If we register shares of our Class N common stock for public sale, OpenAI, or its permitted transferees, will have the right to include the shares underlying the OpenAI Warrant in the registration statement. However, this right does not apply to a registration on Form S-8, Form S-4, or on another form, or in another context, in which such “piggyback” registration would be inappropriate. The underwriters of any underwritten offering will have the right to limit the number of shares registered by these holders if they determine that marketing factors require limitation, in which case the number of shares to be registered will be apportioned pro rata among these holders, according to the total amount of securities requested to be included by each holder. Anti-Takeover Provisions Certain provisions of Delaware law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws, which will become effective immediately prior to the completion of this offering, which are summarized below, may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or discouraging another person from acquiring control of us. They are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire us because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms. Delaware Law We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years after the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, with the following exceptions: •the business combination or transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder was approved by the board of directors prior to the time that the stockholder became an interested stockholder; •upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding shares owned by directors who are also officers of the corporation and shares owned by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or •at or subsequent to the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder, the business combination was approved by the board of directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder. In general, Section 203 defines a “business combination” to include mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in financial benefit to a stockholder and an “interested stockholder” as a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock. These provisions may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing changes in control of our company.

Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws, which will become effective immediately prior to the completion of this offering, will include a number of provisions that could deter hostile takeovers or delay or prevent changes in control of our board of directors or management team, including the following: Classified Board Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will further provide that our board of directors is divided into three classes, Class I, Class II, and Class III, with each class serving staggered three-year terms. In addition, directors may only be removed from the board of directors for cause. The existence of a classified board could delay a potential acquirer from obtaining majority control of our board of directors, and the prospect of that delay might deter a potential acquirer. See the section titled “Management—Board Structure and Composition” for additional information. Board of Directors Vacancies Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws will authorize only our board of directors to fill vacant directorships, including newly created seats. In addition, the number of directors constituting our board of directors will be permitted to be set only by a resolution adopted by a majority vote of our entire board of directors. These provisions would prevent a stockholder from increasing the size of our board of directors and then gaining control of our board of directors by filling the resulting vacancies with its own nominees. This will make it more difficult to change the composition of our board of directors and will promote continuity of management. Stockholder Action; Special Meeting of Stockholders Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that our stockholders may not take action by written consent, but may only take action at annual or special meetings of our stockholders. As a result, a holder controlling a majority of our capital stock would not be able to amend our amended and restated bylaws or remove directors without holding a meeting of our stockholders called in accordance with our amended and restated bylaws. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will further provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority of our board of directors, the chairperson of our board of directors, our Chief Executive Officer, or our President, thus prohibiting a stockholder from calling a special meeting. These provisions might delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or for stockholders controlling a majority of our capital stock to take any action, including the removal of directors. Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations Our amended and restated bylaws will provide advance notice procedures for stockholders seeking to bring business before our annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors at our annual meeting of stockholders. Our amended and restated bylaws will also specify certain requirements regarding the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions might preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at our annual meeting of stockholders if the proper procedures are not followed. We expect that these provisions may also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company. No Cumulative Voting The Delaware General Corporation Law provides that stockholders are not entitled to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless a corporation’s certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will not provide for cumulative voting.

185

Table o f Contents

Amendment of Charter and Bylaws Provisions Amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will require the approval of 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting power of our common stock. Our amended and restated bylaws will provide that approval of stockholders holding 66 2/3% of our outstanding voting power voting as a single class is required for stockholders to amend or adopt any provision of our bylaws. In addition, amendments to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws that amend, alter, change, adopt, or repeal any provision in a manner that modifies the voting, conversion, or other powers, preferences, or other special rights or privileges, or restrictions of the Class N common stock will require the approval of a majority of the then-outstanding shares of Class N common stock, voting as a separate class. Issuance of Undesignated Preferred Stock Our board of directors will have the authority, without further action by our stockholders, to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock with rights and preferences, including voting rights, designated from time to time by our board of directors. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock would enable our board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest, or other means. Choice of Forum Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws will provide that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for the following types of actions or proceedings under Delaware statutory or common law: any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers or stockholders to us or to our stockholders; any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws (as either may be amended from time to time); or any action asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine. As a result, any action brought by any of our stockholders with regard to any of these matters will need to be filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and cannot be filed in any other jurisdiction; provided that, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created solely by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction; and provided further that, if and only if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware dismisses any such action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, such action may be brought in another state or federal court sitting in the State of Delaware. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws will also provide that the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause or causes of action against us or any defendant arising under the Securities Act. Such provision is intended to benefit and may be enforced by us, our officers and directors, employees, and agents, including the underwriters and any other professional or entity who has prepared or certified any part of this prospectus. Nothing in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws preclude stockholders that assert claims under the Exchange Act from bringing such claims in state or federal court, subject to applicable law. If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope described above is filed in a court other than a court located within the State of Delaware (a “Foreign Action”), in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the applicable provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws and having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder. Although our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws will contain the choice of forum provision described above, it is possible that a court could find that such a provision is inapplicable for a particular claim or action or that such provision is unenforceable. This choice of forum provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or any of our directors, officers, other employees or stockholders, which may

186

discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims or make such lawsuits more costly for stockholders, although our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. Limitations on Liability and Indemnification Matters Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will limit the liability of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, and our amended and restated bylaws will provide that we will indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by such law. We expect to enter into indemnification agreements with our current directors and executive officers prior to the completion of this offering and expect to enter into a similar agreement with any new directors or executive officers. Further, pursuant to our indemnification agreements and directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, our directors and executive officers will be indemnified and insured against the cost of defense, settlement, or payment of a judgment under certain circumstances. In addition, as permitted by Delaware law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will include provisions that eliminate the personal liability of our directors and executive officers for monetary damages resulting from breaches of certain fiduciary duties as a director or officer. The effect of this provision is to restrict our rights and the rights of our stockholders in derivative suits to recover monetary damages against a director or officer for breach of fiduciary duties as a director or officer. These provisions may be held not to be enforceable for violations of the federal securities laws of the United States. Listing We have applied to list our Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “CBRS.” Transfer Agent and Registrar The transfer agent and registrar for our Class A common stock, Class B common stock, and Class N common stock will be Computershare Trust Company, N.A. The address of the transfer agent and registrar is 250 Royall Street, Canton, Massachusetts 02021.

Shares Eligible for Future Sale

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock. Future sales of substantial amounts of our Class A common stock in the public market could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time. Furthermore, because only a limited number of shares will be available for sale shortly after this offering due to existing contractual and legal restrictions on resale as described below, there may be sales of substantial amounts of our Class A common stock in the public market after the restrictions lapse. This may adversely affect the prevailing market price and our ability to raise equity capital in the future. Upon the completion of this offering, based on the number of shares of our capital stock outstanding as of December 31, 2025, we will have an aggregate of                 shares of our Class A common stock (or shares of Class A common if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full), shares of our Class B common stock, and no shares of our Class N common stock outstanding, after giving effect to (i) the filing and effectiveness of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, which will occur immediately prior to the completion of this offering; (ii) the Preferred Stock Conversion; (iii) the Common Stock Reclassification; and (iv) the RSU Net Settlement, and assuming no exercise of any additional options or settlement of additional RSUs subsequent to December 31, 2025; and assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase additional shares from us. Of these shares, all of the shares of Class A common stock sold in this offering, plus any shares sold by us, if any, upon exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, will be freely tradable without restrictions or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any shares purchased by our “affiliates,” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, whose sales would be subject to the Rule 144 resale restrictions described below, other than the holding period requirement. The remaining shares of Class B common stock and shares of Class B common stock subject to stock options will be on issuance deemed “restricted securities,” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. These restricted securities are eligible for public sale only if they are registered under the Securities Act or if they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rules 144 or 701 under the Securities Act, which are summarized below. As a result of the lock-up agreements and market standoff provisions described below, and subject to the provisions of Rule 144 and Rule 701 under the Securities Act and our insider trading compliance policy, these restricted securities may be available for sale in the public market as follows:

Earliest Date Available for Sale in the Public Market / Number of Shares of Class A Common Stock

Eligible Securities also include equity awards (including options and RSUs) granted prior to April 30, 2026 to Directors and Officers and Non-Executive Employees for which the service-based vesting condition will be satisfied as of November 9, 2026. Rule 144 In general, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months would be entitled to sell such securities, provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the 90 days preceding, a sale; and (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least 90 days before the sale. Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or any time during the 90 days preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of either of the following: •1% of the number of shares of our Class A common stock then outstanding, which will equal approximately                shares immediately after this offering, assuming no exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option; or •the average weekly trading volume of shares of our Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to that sale; provided, in each case, that we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least 90 days before the sale. Such sales both by affiliates and by non-affiliates must also comply with the manner of sale, current public information and notice provisions of Rule 144 to the extent applicable. Rule 701 In general, under Rule 701 as currently in effect, any of our employees, directors, officers, consultants, or advisors who acquired common stock from us in connection with a written compensatory stock or option plan or other written agreement in compliance with Rule 701 before the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part (to the extent such common stock is not subject to a lock-up agreement or market standoff provision) and who are not our “affiliates” as defined in Rule 144 during the immediately preceding 90 days, is entitled to rely on Rule 701 to resell such shares beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus in reliance on Rule 144, but without complying with the notice, manner of sale, public information requirements or volume limitation provisions of Rule 144. Persons who are our “affiliates” may resell those shares beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus without compliance with minimum holding period requirements under Rule 144 (subject to the terms of the lock-up agreements and market standoff provisions referred to below, if applicable). Lock-Up and Market Standoff Agreements In connection with this offering, we, our executive officers and directors, and certain other record holders that together represent approximately           % of our Class A common stock, stock options, and other securities convertible into, exercisable, or exchangeable for our Class A common stock have entered into or will enter into lock-up agreements with the underwriters pursuant to which we and they have agreed to not, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of, (or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise) any shares of Class A common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our Class A common stock during the Lock-up Period.

Furthermore, (i) an additional approximately           % of our outstanding Class A common stock and securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for our Class A common stock are subject to the market standoff provisions in our amended and restated investors’ rights agreement, pursuant to which such holders agreed to not lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of our Class A common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Class A common stock held immediately prior to the effectiveness of this registration statement, or enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities during the Lock-up Period and (ii) an additional approximately           % of our outstanding Class A common stock and securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for our Class A common stock are subject to restrictions contained in market standoff agreements with us that include restrictions on the sale, transfer, or other disposition of shares during the Lock-up Period. The forms and specific restrictive provisions within these market standoff provisions vary among security holders. For example, although some of these market standoff provisions do not specifically restrict hedging transactions and others may be subject to different interpretations between us and security holders as to whether they restrict hedging, our insider trading compliance policy prohibits hedging by all of our current directors, officers, employees, contractors, and consultants. Sales, short sales, or hedging transactions involving our equity securities, whether before or after this offering and whether or not we believe them to be prohibited, could adversely affect the price of our Class A common stock. As a result of the foregoing, substantially all of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock and securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for our Class A common stock are subject to a lock-up agreement or market standoff provisions during the Lock-up Period. We have agreed to enforce all such market standoff restrictions on behalf of the underwriters and not to amend or waive any such market standoff provisions during the Lock-up Period without the prior consent of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., and Barclays Capital Inc., on behalf of the underwriters, provided that we may release shares from such restrictions to the extent such shares would be entitled to release under the form of lock-up agreement with the underwriters signed by our directors and executive officers and certain other record holders of our securities as described herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and in each case, subject to the provisions of Rule 144 and Rule 701 under the Securities Act and our insider trading compliance policy, as applicable: (i)7.5% of the Eligible Securities held by Non-Executive Employees will be released beginning at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the First Trading Day; (ii)if the Second Trading Day Release Trigger is satisfied, 7.5% of the Eligible Securities held by Non- Executive Employees will be released beginning at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the second trading day on which our Class A common stock is traded on Nasdaq; (iii)6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the second trading day after we publicly announce earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, (A)if the Second Trading Day Release Trigger is satisfied: •15% of the Eligible Securities held by Directors and Officers; and •15% of the Eligible Securities held by the Non-Employee Holders will be released; or, (B)if the Second Trading Day Release Trigger is not satisfied: •15% of the Eligible Securities held by Directors and Officers;

Without limiting the above, the restrictions imposed by the lock-up agreements and market standoff provisions during the Lock-up Period are subject to certain additional exceptions, including with respect to: (i)any sales of our Class A common stock to the underwriters pursuant to the underwriting agreement to be entered into in connection with this offering; (ii)transfers (A) as a bona fide gift or gifts (including contributions to a charitable organization or educational institution) or (B) for bona fide estate or tax planning purposes (including contributions to a family foundation); (iii)transfers by will, other testamentary document, or intestacy; (iv)transfers to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the lock-up party or the immediate family of the lock-up party, or if the lock-up party is a trust, to a trustor or beneficiary of the trust or to the estate of a beneficiary of such trust; (v)transfers to a partnership, limited liability company, or other entity of which the lock-up party and/or the immediate family of the lock-up party are the legal and/or beneficial owner of all of the outstanding equity securities or similar interests; (vi)transfers to a nominee, custodian or trustee of a person or entity to whom a disposition or transfer would be permissible under clauses (ii) through (v) above; (vii)transactions relating to shares of Class A common stock acquired by the lock-up party in this offering or in open market transactions after the closing date of this offering;

the transfer or distribution is legally required during the Lock-up Period, such filing, report, or announcement must clearly indicate in the footnotes thereto the nature and conditions of the transfer. All remaining securities held by our security holders and not previously eligible for sale, subject to applicable limitations under Rule 144, including for “affiliates” and compliance with other applicable law, and subject to the provisions of our insider trading compliance policy, as applicable, will be fully released on the earlier of (i) 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the second trading day following our release of earnings for the quarter ending September 30, 2026 or (ii) 180 days after the date of this prospectus.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS The following discussion is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to Non-U.S. Holders (as defined below) of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of our Class A common stock issued pursuant to this offering, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax effects. The effects of other U.S. federal tax laws, such as estate and gift tax laws, and any applicable state, local, or non-U.S. tax laws are not discussed. This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions, and published rulings and administrative pronouncements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), in each case in effect as of the date hereof. These authorities may change or be subject to differing interpretations. Any such change or differing interpretation may be applied retroactively in a manner that could adversely affect a Non-U.S. Holder of our Class A common stock. We have not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position to that discussed below regarding the tax consequences of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of our Class A common stock. This discussion is limited to Non-U.S. Holders that hold our Class A common stock as a “capital asset” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to a Non-U.S. Holder’s particular circumstances, including the impact of the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income and the alternative minimum tax. In addition, it does not address consequences relevant to Non-U.S. Holders subject to special rules, including, without limitation: •U.S. expatriates and former citizens or long-term residents of the United States; •persons holding our Class A common stock as part of a hedge, straddle, or other risk reduction strategy or as part of a conversion transaction or other integrated investment; •banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions; •brokers, dealers, or traders in securities; •“controlled foreign corporations,” “foreign controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies,” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax; •partnerships or other entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and investors therein); •tax-exempt organizations or governmental organizations; •persons deemed to sell our Class A common stock under the constructive sale provisions of the Code; •persons who hold or receive our Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of any employee stock option or otherwise as compensation; •tax-qualified retirement plans; and •“qualified foreign pension funds” as defined in Section 897(l)(2) of the Code and entities all of the interests of which are held by qualified foreign pension funds. If an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our Class A common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will depend on the status of the partner, the activities of the partnership, and certain determinations made at the partner level. Accordingly, partnerships holding our Class A common stock and the partners in such partnerships should consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences to them.

THIS DISCUSSION IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT TAX ADVICE. INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP, AND DISPOSITION OF OUR CLASS A COMMON STOCK ARISING UNDER THE U.S. FEDERAL ESTATE OR GIFT TAX LAWS OR UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY STATE, LOCAL, OR NON-U.S. TAXING JURISDICTION OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE INCOME TAX TREATY. Definition of a Non-U.S. Holder For purposes of this discussion, a “Non-U.S. Holder” is any beneficial owner of our Class A common stock that is neither a “U.S. person” nor an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A U.S. person is any person that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is or is treated as any of the following: •an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; •a corporation created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia; •an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or •a trust that (i) is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and all substantial decisions of which are subject to the control of one or more “United States persons” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), or (ii) has a valid election in effect to be treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Distributions As described in the section titled “Dividend Policy,” we do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. However, if we do make distributions of cash or property on our Class A common stock, such distributions will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Amounts not treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes will constitute a return of capital and first be applied against and reduce a Non-U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Class A common stock, but not below zero. Any excess will be treated as capital gain and will be treated as described under the subsection titled “—Sale or Other Taxable Disposition” below. Subject to the discussion below regarding effectively connected income, dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the dividends (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty, provided the Non-U.S. Holder furnishes a valid IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or other applicable documentation) certifying qualification for the lower treaty rate). A Non-U.S. Holder that does not timely furnish the required documentation, but that qualifies for a reduced treaty rate, may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their entitlement to benefits under any applicable tax treaties. If dividends paid to a Non-U.S. Holder are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the Non-U.S. Holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such dividends are attributable), the Non-U.S. Holder will be exempt from the U.S. federal withholding tax described above. To claim the exemption, the Non-U.S. Holder must furnish to the applicable withholding agent a valid IRS Form W-8ECI, certifying that the dividends are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States.

196

Table o f Contents

Any such effectively connected dividends will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular rates applicable to U.S. persons. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on such effectively connected dividends, as adjusted for certain items. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable tax treaties that may provide for different rules. Sale or Other Taxable Disposition A Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our Class A common stock unless: •the gain is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, the Non-U.S. Holder maintains a permanent establishment in the United States to which such gain is attributable); •the Non-U.S. Holder is a nonresident alien individual present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the disposition and certain other requirements are met; or •our Class A common stock constitutes a U.S. real property interest (“USRPI”) by reason of our status as a U.S. real property holding corporation (“USRPHC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Gain described in the first bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the regular rates applicable to U.S. persons. A Non-U.S. Holder that is a corporation also may be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on such effectively connected gain, as adjusted for certain items. A Non-U.S. Holder described in the second bullet point above will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on gain realized upon the sale or other taxable disposition of our Class A common stock, which may be offset by certain U.S. source capital losses of the Non-U.S. Holder (even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States), provided the Non- U.S. Holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses. With respect to the third bullet point above, we believe we currently are not, and do not anticipate becoming, a USRPHC. Because the determination of whether we are a USRPHC depends, however, on the fair market value of our USRPIs relative to the fair market value of our non-U.S. real property interests and our other business assets, there can be no assurance we currently are not a USRPHC or will not become one in the future. Even if we are or were to become a USRPHC, gain arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of our Class A common stock by a Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax if our Class A common stock is “regularly traded,” as defined by applicable Treasury Regulations, on an established securities market, and such Non-U.S. Holder owned, actually and constructively, 5% or less of our Class A common stock throughout the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the sale or other taxable disposition or the Non-U.S. Holder’s holding period. Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable tax treaties that may provide for different rules. Information Reporting and Backup Withholding Payments of dividends on our Class A common stock will not be subject to backup withholding, provided the Non-U.S. Holder certifies its non-U.S. status, such as by furnishing a valid IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, or otherwise establishes an exemption. However, information returns are required to be filed with the IRS in connection with any distributions on our Class A common stock paid to the Non-U.S. Holder, regardless of whether such distributions constitute dividends or whether any tax was actually withheld. In addition, proceeds of the sale or other taxable disposition of our Class A common stock within the United States or conducted through certain U.S.-related brokers generally will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting if the

197

Table o f Contents

applicable withholding agent receives the certification described above or the Non-U.S. Holder otherwise establishes an exemption. Proceeds of a disposition of our Class A common stock conducted through a non-U.S. office of a non- U.S. broker that does not have certain enumerated relationships with the United States generally will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting. Copies of information returns that are filed with the IRS may also be made available under the provisions of an applicable treaty or agreement to the tax authorities of the country in which the Non-U.S. Holder resides or is established. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against a Non-U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Additional Withholding Tax on Payments Made to Foreign Accounts Withholding taxes may be imposed under Sections 1471 to 1474 of the Code (such Sections commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”)) on certain types of payments made to non-U.S. financial institutions and certain other non-U.S. entities. Specifically, a 30% withholding tax may be imposed on dividends on, or (subject to the proposed Treasury Regulations discussed below) gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, our Class A common stock paid to a “foreign financial institution” or a “non-financial foreign entity” (each as defined in the Code), unless (i) the foreign financial institution undertakes certain diligence and reporting obligations, (ii) the non-financial foreign entity either certifies it does not have any “substantial United States owners” (as defined in the Code) or furnishes identifying information regarding each substantial United States owner, or (iii) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. If the payee is a foreign financial institution and is subject to the diligence and reporting requirements in (i) above, it must enter into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury requiring, among other things, that it undertake to identify accounts held by certain “specified United States persons” or “United States owned foreign entities” (each as defined in the Code), annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 30% on certain payments to non-compliant foreign financial institutions and certain other account holders. Foreign financial institutions located in jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Under applicable Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance, withholding under FATCA generally applies to payments of dividends on our Class A common stock. While withholding under FATCA would have applied also to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of our Class A common stock beginning on January 1, 2019, proposed Treasury Regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations are issued. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of withholding under FATCA to their investment in our Class A common stock.

The underwriters and the representatives are collectively referred to as the “underwriters” and the “representatives,” respectively. The underwriters are offering the shares of Class A common stock subject to their acceptance of the shares from us, and subject to prior sale. The underwriting agreement will provide that the obligations of the several underwriters to pay for and accept delivery of the shares of Class A common stock offered by this prospectus are subject to the approval of certain legal matters by their counsel and to certain other conditions. The underwriters will be obligated to take and pay for all of the shares of Class A common stock offered by this prospectus if any such shares are taken. However, the underwriters will not be required to take or pay for the shares covered by the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares described below. The underwriters initially propose to offer part of the shares of Class A common stock directly to the public at the offering price listed on the cover page of this prospectus and part to certain dealers at a price that represents a concession not in excess of $           per share under the public offering price. After the initial offering of the shares of Class A common stock, the offering price and other selling terms may from time to time be varied by the representatives. Sales of any shares of Class A common stock made outside of the United States may be made by affiliates of the underwriters. We will grant to the underwriters an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of this prospectus, to purchase up to                 additional shares of Class A common stock from us at the public offering price listed on the cover page of this prospectus, less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriters may exercise this option solely for the purpose of covering over-allotments, if any, made in connection with the offering of the shares of Class A common stock offered by this prospectus. To the extent the option is exercised, each underwriter will become obligated, subject to certain conditions, to purchase about the same percentage of the additional shares of Class A common stock as the number listed next to the underwriter’s name in the preceding table bears to the total number of shares of Class A common stock listed next to the names of all underwriters in the preceding table. The following table shows the per share and total public offering price, underwriting discounts and commissions, and proceeds before expenses to us. These amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full

The estimated offering expenses payable by us, exclusive of the underwriting discounts and commissions, are approximately $             . We will agree to reimburse the underwriters for expenses relating to clearance of this offering with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority up to $             . The underwriters have informed us that they do not intend sales to discretionary accounts to exceed 5% of the total number of shares of Class A common stock offered by them. We have applied to list our Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “CBRS.” In connection with this offering, we, our executive officers and directors, and certain other record holders that together represent approximately           % of our Class A common stock, stock options, and other securities convertible into, exercisable, or exchangeable for our Class A common stock have entered into or will enter into lock-up agreements with the underwriters pursuant to which we and they have agreed to not, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, or otherwise dispose of, (or enter into any transaction which is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise) any shares of Class A common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our Class A common stock during the period from the date of this prospectus continuing through the earlier of (i) 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the second trading day following our release of earnings for the quarter ending September 30, 2026 or (ii) 180 days after the date of this prospectus (the “Lock-up Period”). Furthermore, (i) an additional approximately           % of our outstanding Class A common stock and securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for our Class A common stock are subject to the market standoff provisions in our amended and restated investors’ rights agreement, pursuant to which such holders agreed to not lend, offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right, or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of our Class A common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for our Class A common stock held immediately prior to the effectiveness of this registration statement, or enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of such securities during the Lock-up Period and (ii) an additional approximately           % of our outstanding Class A common stock and securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for our Class A common stock are subject to restrictions contained in market standoff agreements with us that include restrictions on the sale, transfer, or other disposition of shares during the Lock-up Period. The forms and specific restrictive provisions within these market standoff provisions vary among security holders. For example, although some of these market standoff provisions do not specifically restrict hedging transactions and others may be subject to different interpretations between us and security holders as to whether they restrict hedging, our insider trading policy prohibits hedging by all of our current directors, officers, employees, contractors, and consultants. Sales, short sales, or hedging transactions involving our equity securities, whether before or after this offering and whether or not we believe them to be prohibited, could adversely affect the price of our Class A common stock. As a result of the foregoing, substantially all of our outstanding shares of Class A common stock and securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for our Class A common stock are subject to a

200

Table o f Contents

lock-up agreement or market standoff provisions during the Lock-up Period. We have agreed to enforce all such market standoff restrictions on behalf of the underwriters and not to amend or waive any such market standoff provisions during the Lock-up Period without the prior consent of Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., and Barclays Capital Inc., on behalf of the underwriters, provided that we may release shares from such restrictions to the extent such shares would be entitled to release under the form of lock-up agreement with the underwriters signed by our directors and executive officers and certain other record holders of our securities as described herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and in each case, subject to the provisions of Rule 144 and Rule 701 under the Securities Act and our insider trading compliance policy, as applicable: (i)7.5% of the Eligible Securities held by Non-Executive Employees will be released beginning at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the First Trading Day; (ii)if the Second Trading Day Release Trigger is satisfied, 7.5% of the Eligible Securities held by Non- Executive Employees will be released beginning at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the second trading day on which our Class A common stock is traded on Nasdaq; (iii)at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the second trading day after we publicly announce earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, (A)if the Second Trading Day Release Trigger is satisfied: •15% of the Eligible Securities held by Directors and Officers; and •15% of the Eligible Securities held by the Non-Employee Holders will be released; or, (B)if the Second Trading Day Release Trigger is not satisfied: •15% of the Eligible Securities held by Directors and Officers; •7.5% of the Eligible Securities held by Non-Executive Employees; and •15% of the Eligible Securities held by the Non-Employee Holders will be released; (iv)16.7% of the Eligible Securities held by each of the Directors and Officers, Non-Executive Employees, and Non-Employee Holders will be released at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the second trading day after we publicly announce earnings for the quarter ending June 30, 2026; (v)6.7% of the Eligible Securities held by each of the Directors and Officers, Non-Executive Employees, and Non-Employee Holders will be released at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on each of: •August 19, 2026; •September 2, 2026; and •September 16, 2026; and

As used herein, •“Directors and Officers” means our directors and officers subject to reporting under Section 16 of the Exchange Act during the Lock-up Period. •“Non-Executive Employees” means our employees as of March 31, 2026, who are not Directors and Officers. •“Non-Employee Holders” means holders of our capital stock, and securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of our capital stock, who are not Directors and Officers or Non-Executive Employees. •“Eligible Securities” means vested shares of our Class A common stock and securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for our Class A common stock held by the Directors and Officers, Non-Executive Employees, and Non-Employee Holders as of April 30, 2026. Eligible Securities also include equity awards (including options and RSUs) granted prior to April 30, 2026 to Directors and Officers and Non-Executive Employees for which the service-based vesting condition will be satisfied as of November 9, 2026. Furthermore, pursuant to certain exceptions to the lock-up agreements and market standoff provisions as described below, certain shares of our Class A common stock will be eligible for sale in the open market during the Lock-up Period in sell-to-cover transactions in order to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the settlement of RSUs. Pursuant to such exceptions, we estimate up to an aggregate of           million shares may be sold in the open market in connection with such tax withholding obligations (based on an assumed           % tax withholding rate). Without limiting the above, the restrictions imposed by the lock-up agreements and market standoff provisions during the Lock-up Period are subject to certain additional exceptions, including with respect to: (i)any sales of our Class A common stock to the underwriters pursuant to the underwriting agreement to be entered into in connection with this offering; (ii)transfers (A) as a bona fide gift or gifts (including contributions to a charitable organization or educational institution) or (B) for bona fide estate or tax planning purposes (including contributions to a family foundation); (iii)transfers by will, other testamentary document, or intestacy; (iv)transfers to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the lock-up party or the immediate family of the lock-up party, or if the lock-up party is a trust, to a trustor or beneficiary of the trust or to the estate of a beneficiary of such trust; (v)transfers to a partnership, limited liability company, or other entity of which the lock-up party and/or the immediate family of the lock-up party are the legal and/or beneficial owner of all of the outstanding equity securities or similar interests;

The restrictions on issuances by us during the Lock-up Period are subject to certain exceptions, including with respect to: (i)the sale of our Class A common stock to the underwriters pursuant to the underwriting agreement; (ii)the issuance of shares of common stock upon the exercise of an option or warrant or the conversion of a security outstanding as of the date of this prospectus or the settlement of RSUs; (iii)grants of stock options, stock awards, restricted stock, RSUs, or other equity awards and the issuance of shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock (whether upon the exercise of stock options or otherwise) to employees, officers, directors, advisors or consultants of the Company pursuant to the terms of an equity incentive plan or employee benefit plan in effect as of the closing of this offering and described herein, provided that all recipients of any such grants, stock awards, restricted stock, RSUs, or other equity awards shall execute and deliver to the underwriters a lock-up agreement covering the remainder of the Lock-up Period to the extent the securities held by such person are not otherwise bound by a market standoff agreement that is at least as restrictive as the terms described herein; (iv)facilitating the establishment of a trading plan on behalf of a stockholder, officer, or director pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of shares of Class A common stock, provided that (A) such plan does not provide for the transfer of Class A common stock during the Lock-up Period (except as otherwise permitted under the lock-up agreement) and (B) to the extent a public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of or voluntarily made by us regarding the establishment of such plan, such announcement or filing shall include a statement to the effect that no transfer of shares of Class A common stock may be made under such plan during the Lock-up Period (except as otherwise permitted under the lock-up agreement); (v)the sale or issuance of or entry into an agreement to sell or issue Class A common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A common stock in connection with one or more mergers, acquisitions of securities, businesses, property or other assets, products or technologies, joint ventures, commercial relationships, or other strategic corporate transactions or alliances; provided that the aggregate amount of Class A common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A common stock (on an as-converted, as-exercised, or as-exchanged basis) that we may sell or issue or agree to sell or issue pursuant to this clause (v) shall not exceed           % of the total number of shares of our Class A common stock issued and outstanding immediately following the completion of this offering, and provided, further, that each recipient of such securities enter into a lock- up agreement with the underwriters covering the remainder of the Lock-up Period to the extent the securities held by such person are not otherwise bound by a market standoff agreement that is at least as restrictive as the terms described herein; (vi)the sale or issuance of warrants to purchase shares of our Class N common stock in connection with commercial transactions, provided, that the recipient of such securities enter into a lock-up agreement with the underwriters covering the remainder of the Lock-up Period;

Table o f Contents

(vii)the issuance of shares of Class A common stock upon the conversion of shares of our Class B common stock or Class N common stock; or (viii)the filing of one or more registration statements on Form S-8 for the registration of shares of Class A common stock issued pursuant to our equity incentive and employee benefit plans disclosed in this prospectus. In order to facilitate the offering of our Class A common stock, the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the price of our Class A common stock. Specifically, the underwriters may sell more shares than they are obligated to purchase under the underwriting agreement, creating a short position. A short sale is covered if the short position is no greater than the number of shares available for purchase by the underwriters under the option to purchase additional shares. The underwriters can close out a covered short sale by exercising the option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out a covered short sale, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the open market price of shares compared to the price available under the option to purchase additional shares.  The underwriters may also sell shares in excess of the option to purchase additional shares, creating a naked short position. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of our Class A common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. As an additional means of facilitating this offering, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, shares of Class A common stock in the open market to stabilize the price of our Class A common stock. These activities may raise or maintain the market price of our Class A common stock above independent market levels or prevent or retard a decline in the market price of our Class A common stock. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities and may end any of these activities at any time. We and the underwriters will agree to indemnify each other against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on websites maintained by one or more underwriters, or selling group members, if any, participating in this offering. The representatives may agree to allocate a number of shares of Class A common stock to underwriters for sale to their online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be allocated by the representatives to underwriters that may make Internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations. Other Relationships The underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing, and brokerage activities. Certain of the underwriters and their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory and investment banking services for us, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. For example, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Barclays Capital Inc., UBS Securities LLC, Mizuho Securities USA LLC, and TD Securities (USA) LLC, underwriters in this offering, and/or their affiliates, are lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility. We have also granted certain of the underwriters a right of first refusal to participate as book-running lead managing underwriters, book-running lead arrangers, or exclusive placement agents in connection with any “underwritten” Rule 144A offering, underwritten public offering or other equity financing by us through September

  1. Such right of first refusal will be deemed to be underwriting compensation.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their respective affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and instruments. Such investment

205

Table o f Contents

and securities activities may involve our securities and instruments. The underwriters and their respective affiliates may also make investment recommendations or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long or short positions in such securities and instruments. Directed Share Program At our request, the underwriters have reserved up to           % of the shares of Class A common stock offered by this prospectus for sale at the initial public offering price through a directed share program to certain persons identified by our management and certain long-tenured employees, which may include parties with whom we have a business relationship and friends and family of management and such employees. If purchased by these persons, these shares will not be subject to a lock-up restriction, except to the extent that the purchasers of such shares are otherwise subject to lock-up agreements as a result of their relationships with us. The number of shares of Class A common stock available for sale to the general public will be reduced by the number of reserved shares sold to these persons. Any reserved shares not purchased by these persons will be offered by the underwriters to the general public on the same basis as the other shares of Class A common stock offered by this prospectus. Other than the underwriting discount described on the front cover of this prospectus, the underwriters will not be entitled to any commission with respect to shares of Class A common stock sold pursuant to the directed share program. We will agree to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities and expenses, including liabilities under the Securities Act, in connection with sales of the shares reserved for the directed share program. Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC will administer our directed share program. Pricing of the Offering Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our Class A common stock. The initial public offering price will be determined by negotiations between us and the representatives. Among the factors considered in determining the initial public offering price will be our future prospects and those of our industry in general, our sales, earnings and certain other financial and operating information in recent periods, and the price-earnings ratios, price-sales ratios, market prices of securities, and certain financial and operating information of companies engaged in activities similar to ours. Neither we nor the underwriters can assure investors that an active trading market will develop for shares of our Class A common stock, or that the shares will trade in the public market at or above the initial public offering price. Selling Restrictions European Economic Area In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area (each a “Relevant State”), no shares of our Class A common stock have been offered or will be offered pursuant to the offering to the public in that Relevant State prior to the publication of a prospectus in relation to the shares of our Class A common stock which has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant State or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant State, all in accordance with the Prospectus Regulation, except that offers of shares of our Class A common stock may be made to the public in that Relevant State at any time under the following exemptions under the Prospectus Regulation: (a)to any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined under Article 2 of the Prospectus Regulation; (b)to fewer than 150 natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors as defined under Article 2 of the Prospectus Regulation), subject to obtaining the prior consent of the representatives for any such offer; or (c)in any other circumstances falling within Article 1(4) of the Prospectus Regulation, provided that no such offer of shares of our Class A common stock shall require us or any underwriter to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Regulation or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 23 of
