STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND NET LOSS PER SHARE STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND NET LOSS PER SHARE
The Company has two classes of common stock: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting and conversion rights. As of December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2024, 960 million and 1,013 million shares of Class A common stock were issued and outstanding, respectively. As of December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2024, 8 million shares of Class B common stock were issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2024, 3,500 million shares of Class A common stock and 8 million shares of Class B common stock were authorized.

Because the rights of the holders of Class A and Class B common stock, including liquidation and dividend rights, are identical except with respect to voting and conversion rights, undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis. As a result, net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same for Class A and Class B common stock, whether on an individual or combined basis.
Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, to the extent dilutive, including shares underlying the Green Convertible Notes, 2026 Convertible Note, stock options, unvested RSUs, shares underlying the Company’s ESPP, other stock-based awards, and stock warrants. Potential shares of common stock are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share if their effect would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented or if the issuance of shares is contingent upon events that did not occur by the end of the period, in the case of the Green Convertible Notes, 2026 Convertible Note, stock options with a market condition, and other stock-based awards. The
following table presents the number of potential shares of common stock outstanding as of the end of each period that were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for each period (in millions):

Privately negotiated capped call transactions (“Capped Calls”) are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as they would be antidilutive. However, upon conversion, there will be no economic dilution from the 2030 Green Convertible Notes unless the market price of the Company’s Class A common stock exceeds the cap price as exercise of the Capped Calls offsets any dilution from the 2030 Green Convertible Notes from the conversion price up to the cap price.

A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share is as follows (in millions, except per share data):
