Item 5.07. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
On May 4, 2026, The Trade Desk, Inc. (the “Company”) held its 2026 annual meeting of stockholders (the “Meeting”). As of the record date for the Meeting, which was established by the Company’s board of directors to be the close of business on April 6, 2026, there were 426,989,140 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.000001 per share (the “Class A common stock”), outstanding (each entitled to one vote per share) and 43,108,629 shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.000001 per share (the “Class B common stock” and, together with the Class A common stock, the “common stock”), outstanding (each entitled to 10 votes per share). The common stock voted as a single class on all matters, other than the election of the director nominee whom holders of Class A common stock, voting separately as a class, were entitled to elect (the “Class A Director”), as described in more detail in the Proxy Statement (as defined below).
