Legal Contingencies
From time to time, we may be a party to various legal proceedings and subject to claims in the ordinary course of business.
Securities Litigation
On June 6, 2023, a securities class action was filed against us, our Chief Executive Officer and our former Chief Financial Officer, in the Northern District of California, captioned Johansson v. SentinelOne, Inc., Case No. 4:23-cv-02786. The suit is brought on behalf of an alleged class of stockholders who purchased or acquired shares of the Company’s Class A common stock between June 1, 2022 and June 1, 2023. The complaint alleged that defendants made false or misleading statements about our business, operations and prospects, including its annual recurring revenues and internal controls, and purports to assert claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). A substantially similar suit was filed on June 16, 2023 in the same court against the same defendants asserting the same claims, captioned Nyren v. SentinelOne, Inc., Case No. 4:23-cv-02982. On October 4, 2023, the court issued an order consolidating both cases under the caption In re SentinelOne, Inc. Securities Litigation Case No. 4:23-cv-02786 (Securities Litigation) and appointing a lead plaintiff. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint. On July 2, 2024, the District Court granted defendants’ motion, dismissing the consolidated complaint with leave for plaintiff to amend the complaint. Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on August 1, 2024. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on September 16, 2024. On October 2, 2025, the District Court granted defendants’ motion, dismissing the action with prejudice and entered judgment in favor of defendants. On October 28, 2025, plaintiff filed a notice of appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. We believe the case is without merit and defendants intend to defend the suit vigorously.
Derivative Litigation
On January 10, 2024, Plaintiff Walter Stochevski, derivatively on behalf of SentinelOne, filed a shareholder derivative complaint against SentinelOne and certain of its current and former directors and officers in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, which was subsequently transferred to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. The complaint alleged claims based on events similar to those in the Securities Litigation and asserted causes of action against the individual defendants for breach of fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, waste of corporate assets, and for making false and misleading statements about our business, operations, and prospects in violation of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act. This matter was consolidated with Newman, below, under the caption In re SentinelOne, Inc. Stockholder Derivative Litigation, Case No. 4:24-cv-01934. Both matters were stayed pending proceedings in the Securities Litigation. On October 21, 2025, the parties entered into a stipulation dismissing the case with prejudice, and on October 22, 2025, the District Court entered an order of dismissal with prejudice.
On March 29, 2024, Plaintiff Joel Newman, derivatively on behalf of SentinelOne, filed a shareholder derivative complaint against SentinelOne and certain of its current and former directors and officers in the United
States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging claims based on events similar to those in the Securities Litigation and the Stochevski action, above, and asserting causes of action against the individual defendants for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and control person claims under Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act. This matter was consolidated with Stochevski, above, under the caption In re SentinelOne, Inc. Stockholder Derivative Litigation, Case No. 4:24-cv-01934, and the case has been dismissed with prejudice.
Warranties and Indemnification
Our services are generally warranted to deliver and operate in a manner consistent with general industry standards that are reasonably applicable and materially conform with our documentation under normal use and circumstances. Our contracts generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if our products or services infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights.
We also offer a limited warranty to certain customers, subject to certain conditions, to cover certain costs incurred by the customer in case of a cybersecurity breach. We have a cybersecurity liability policy that may cover our customers’ actual damages. We have not incurred any material costs related to such obligations and had no material accruals related to such obligations in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of October 31, 2025 and January 31, 2025.
In addition, we also indemnify certain of our directors and executive officers against certain liabilities that may arise while they are serving in good faith in their company capacities. We maintain director and officer liability insurance coverage that would generally enable us to recover a portion of any future amounts paid.
Other Contingencies
We are engaged in ongoing negotiations with the IRS and the ITA regarding a potential bilateral APA related to certain intercompany transfer pricing matters involving the intra-group utilization of the intellectual property of our Israeli subsidiary. While no agreements have been reached and the outcome remains uncertain, we reassessed our uncertain tax position during the nine months ended October 31, 2025, and recorded a related long-term tax contingency. If we agree to an APA or other negotiated settlement, we may, as part of that agreement, be required to make significant payments to the Israeli government. We currently expect that any payments pursuant to an APA (if an APA is concluded) would be made over a number of years and subject to other terms and conditions. This matter remains unresolved and, if not successfully concluded, could result in additional obligations, including potential tax assessments. For more information, see Note 9, Income Taxes.
