Key quotes
· 4 pulledWe recently submitted a confidential S-1.
We expect it to leak so we're just announcing it.
We have not decided on timing yet; it may be a while because there are things we want to do that are likely easier as a private company.
But it's a complicated set of tradeoffs and this gives us the option to go public sooner if that ends up being best.
