Ethos Technologies Establishes Dual-Class Structure Before IPO

Ethos Technologies Inc. Class A ( (LIFE) ) has provided an update.

On January 28, 2026, Ethos Technologies Inc. entered into exchange agreements with co-founders Peter Colis and Lingke Wang, their affiliates, and entities affiliated with major shareholders Accel and Sequoia Capital to exchange shares of Class A common stock for Class B common stock immediately prior to the sale of Class A shares at the closing of its initial public offering, a move that shapes the company’s dual-class share structure and the distribution of voting power. On the same date, the company also signed equity exchange right agreements with each co-founder, giving them the right to have any Class A shares received from pre-IPO equity awards automatically exchanged into Class B shares, reinforcing the co-founders’ long-term control and influence over the company’s governance as it transitions to the public markets.
