ONE NUMBER · MADE TO SHARE
Duolingo: €100K+ a year on lobbying the EU
Duolingo: 76.3% of the votes that decide the company

原因:他们向投资者说明的内容

Sentences copied word for word from the latest annual report of the company behind Duolingo. Companies must tell investors what their business depends on.

“The majority of our revenue comes through our subscriptions and advertising streams and payments are made to Duolingo through service providers.”

Where the money comes from, in the company's own words.

Duolingo, Inc. · annual report (Form 10-K) filed with the US SEC on 2026-02-27 · source · SHA-256 7bd34eb75513…

“If we are unable to maintain or increase our user base and user engagement, our revenue and financial results may be materially adversely affected.”

In plain words: when people use it less, the company says its results suffer.

Duolingo, Inc. · annual report (Form 10-K) filed with the US SEC on 2026-02-27 · source · SHA-256 7bd34eb75513…

“As of December 31, 2025, our directors, executive officers, and 5% stockholders and their affiliates held in the aggregate 76.3% of the voting power of our capital stock.”

They decide how the app works. Users have no vote.
