Insights

TL;DR: ICONIQ's disclosed positions in Braze are modest and passive, with no single reporting person or fund exceeding 5%.

The filing shows direct holdings concentrated in the ICONIQ VI funds totaling 1,555,562 shares (approximately 1.7%) and individual beneficial positions up to 2.9%. All reported voting and dispositive powers shown are sole powers for the listed shares and no shared powers are indicated. Because each disclosed position is below the 5% threshold and the reporting persons disclaim group membership, these holdings are routine passive stakes rather than control positions, limiting near-term corporate governance influence.

TL;DR: Reported ownership remains below material control thresholds and the filers expressly disclaim a group, reducing governance implications.

The Schedule explicitly states that many ICONIQ funds hold 0 shares while ICONIQ VI vehicles collectively account for 1.7% beneficial ownership and three individuals report up to 2.9% each. Item 8 disclaims group status and Item 5 classifies ownership as 5% or less, indicating no triggering of enhanced disclosure obligations or presumptive control concerns under the Exchange Act disclosures presented here.
