PROXY STATEMENT

FOR THE 2026 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

to be held at 9:00 am Pacific Time on Thursday,

May 21, 2026

This proxy statement and the enclosed form of proxy are furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors for use at the 2026 annual meeting of stockholders of Dropbox, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and any postponements, adjournments or continuations thereof (the “Annual Meeting”). The Annual Meeting will be held on Thursday, May 21, 2026 at 9:00 am Pacific Time. The Annual Meeting will be conducted virtually via live audio webcast. You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting virtually by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DBX2026, where you will be able to listen to the meeting live, submit questions and vote online. Our proxy statement and 2025 annual report are first being mailed on or about April 7, 2026 to all stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

The information provided in the “question and answer” format below is for your convenience only and is merely a summary of the information contained in this proxy statement. You should read this entire proxy statement carefully. Information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not intended to be incorporated by reference into this proxy statement and references to our website address in this proxy statement are inactive textual references only.

What matters am I voting on?

You are being asked to vote on:

•the election of seven directors to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until their successors are duly elected and qualified;

•a proposal to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026;

•a proposal to approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers;

•a proposal to approve an amendment and restatement of our Articles to waive jury trials for internal actions, together with contextual and other ministerial changes; and

•any other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

How does the board of directors recommend I vote on these proposals?

Our board of directors recommends a vote:

•“FOR” the election of each director nominee named in this proxy statement;

•“FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026;

•“FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers; and

•"FOR" the amendment and restatement of our Articles to waive jury trials for internal actions, together with contextual and other ministerial changes.


Dropbox, Inc. Proxy Statement and Notice of 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders			1

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GENERAL INFORMATION (continued)

How many votes are needed for approval of each proposal?

•Proposal No. 1: Each director is elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present virtually or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. “Plurality” means that the seven nominees who receive the largest number of votes cast “for” such nominees are elected as directors. As a result, any shares not voted “for” a particular nominee (whether as a result of a withhold vote or a broker non-vote) will not be counted in such nominee’s favor and will have no effect on the outcome of the election. You may vote “For” or “Withhold” on each of the nominees for election as a director.

•Proposal No. 2: The ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our common stock present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. You may vote “For,” “Against,” or “Abstain” with respect to this proposal. Abstentions are considered shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and thus, will have the same effect as a vote “Against” this proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal.

•Proposal No. 3: The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of our common stock present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. You may vote “For,” “Against,” or “Abstain” with respect to this proposal. Abstentions are considered shares present and entitled to vote on this proposal, and thus, will have the same effect as a vote “Against” this proposal. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Because this proposal is an advisory vote, the result will not be binding on our board of directors or our company. Our board of directors and our talent and compensation committee will consider the outcome of the vote when determining named executive officer compensation.

•Proposal No. 4: The approval of the amendment and restatement of our Articles to waive jury trials for internal actions, together with contextual and other ministerial changes, requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class. As a result, abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “Against” this proposal. You may vote “For,” “Against,” or “Abstain” with respect to this proposal.

Who is entitled to vote?

Holders of our Class A and Class B common stock as of the close of business on March 26, 2026, the record date for the Annual Meeting, may vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the record date, there were 163,263,829 shares of our Class A common stock outstanding and 75,374,718 shares of our Class B common stock outstanding. Our Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote as a single class on all matters described in this proxy statement for which your vote is being solicited. Stockholders are not permitted to cumulate votes with respect to the election of directors. Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote on each proposal and each share of Class B common stock is entitled to 10 votes on each proposal. Our Class A common stock and Class B common stock are collectively referred to in this proxy statement as our “common stock.”

Registered Stockholders. If shares of our common stock are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the proxy materials were provided to you directly by us. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card or to vote live at the Annual Meeting. Throughout this proxy statement, we refer to these registered stockholders as “stockholders of record.”

Street Name Stockholders. If shares of our common stock are held on your behalf in a brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered to be the beneficial owner of shares that are held in “street name,” and the proxy materials were forwarded to you by your broker or nominee, who is considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, or other nominee as to how to vote your shares. Beneficial owners are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since a beneficial owner is not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares of our common stock live at the Annual Meeting unless you follow your broker’s procedures for obtaining a legal proxy. If you request a printed copy of our proxy materials by mail, your broker, bank, or other nominee will provide a voting instruction form for you to use. Throughout this proxy statement, we refer to stockholders who hold their shares through a broker, bank, or other nominee as “street name stockholders.”

Are a certain number of shares required to be present in order to hold the Annual Meeting?

A quorum is the minimum number of voting power required to be present at the Annual Meeting to properly hold an annual meeting of stockholders and conduct business under our bylaws and Nevada law. The presence, virtually or by proxy (regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on any matter), of a majority of the voting power of all issued and outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions, "Withhold" votes, and broker non-votes are counted as shares present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum.

GENERAL INFORMATION (continued)

How do I vote?

If you are a stockholder of record, there are several ways to vote:

•by Internet prior to the Annual Meeting at www.proxyvote.com, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 20, 2026 for shares held directly and by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 18, 2026 for shares held in a Dropbox, Inc. employee stock ownership plan (a “Plan”) (have your proxy card in hand when you visit the website);

•by toll-free telephone at 1-800-690-6903, until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 20, 2026 for shares held directly and by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on May 18, 2026 for shares held in a Plan (have your proxy card in hand when you call);

•by completing and mailing your proxy card; or

•by attending the Annual Meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DBX2026, where you may vote and submit questions during the meeting (please have your proxy card in hand when you visit the website).

Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you also vote by proxy so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

If you are a street name stockholder, you will receive voting instructions from your broker, bank, or other nominee. You must follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank, or other nominee in order to direct your broker, bank, or other nominee on how to vote your shares. Street name stockholders should generally be able to vote by returning a voting instruction form, or by telephone or on the Internet. However, the availability of telephone and Internet voting will depend on the voting process of your broker, bank, or other nominee. As discussed above, if you are a street name stockholder, you may not vote your shares live at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank, or other nominee.

How may my brokerage firm or other intermediary vote my shares if I fail to provide timely directions?

Brokerage firms and other intermediaries holding shares of our common stock in street name for their customers are generally required to vote such shares in the manner directed by their customers. In the absence of timely directions, your broker will have discretion to vote your shares on our sole “routine” matter: the proposal to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Your broker will not have discretion to vote on any other proposals, which are “non-routine” matters, absent direction from you (and failure to provide instructions on these matters will result in a “broker non-vote”).

Can I change my vote?

Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy any time before the Annual Meeting by:

•entering a new vote by Internet or by telephone;

•completing and returning a later-dated proxy card;

•notifying the Corporate Secretary of Dropbox, Inc., in writing, at Dropbox, Inc., 1800 Owens Street, San Francisco, California 94158; or

•you may also change your vote by attending and voting at the Annual Meeting (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy).

If you are a street name stockholder, your broker, bank, or other nominee can provide you with instructions on how to change your vote.

What do I need to do to attend the Annual Meeting?

You will be able to attend and participate in the Annual Meeting virtually, submit your questions during the meeting and vote your shares electronically at the meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DBX2026 and by entering the control number included on your proxy card. The Annual Meeting webcast will begin promptly at 9:00 am Pacific Time. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. Online check-in will begin at 8:45 am Pacific Time, and you should allow ample time for the check-in procedures.


Dropbox, Inc. Proxy Statement and Notice of 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders			3

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GENERAL INFORMATION (continued)

What is the effect of giving a proxy?

Proxies are solicited by and on behalf of our board of directors. Andrew W. Houston and Ross Tennenbaum have been designated as proxy holders by our board of directors. When proxies are properly dated, executed, and returned, the shares represented by such proxies will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If the proxy is dated and signed, but no specific instructions are given, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors as described above. If any matters not described in this proxy statement are properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the proxy holders will use their own judgment to determine how to vote the shares. If the Annual Meeting is postponed or adjourned, the proxy holders can vote the shares at the postponed or adjourned Annual Meeting as well, unless you have properly revoked your proxy, as described above.

How are proxies solicited for the Annual Meeting?

Our board of directors is soliciting proxies for use at the Annual Meeting. All expenses associated with this solicitation will be borne by us. We will reimburse brokers or other nominees for reasonable expenses that they incur in sending our proxy materials to you if a broker, bank, or other nominee holds shares of our common stock on your behalf. In addition, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies by telephone, by electronic communication or by other means of communication. Our directors and employees will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will also disclose voting results on a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we will file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Form 8-K as soon as they become available.

I share an address with another stockholder, and we received only one paper copy of the proxy materials. How may I obtain an additional copy of the proxy materials?

We have adopted a procedure called “householding,” which the SEC has approved. Under this procedure, we deliver a single copy of our proxy materials, to multiple stockholders who share the same address, unless we have received contrary instructions from one or more of such stockholders. This procedure reduces our printing costs, mailing costs and fees. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy cards. Upon written or oral request, we will deliver promptly a separate copy of our proxy materials to any stockholder at a shared address to which we delivered a single copy of any of these materials. To receive a separate copy, or, if a stockholder is receiving multiple copies, to request that we only send a single copy of our proxy materials, such stockholder may contact us at:

Dropbox, Inc.

Attention: Corporate Secretary

1800 Owens Street

San Francisco, California 94158

IR@dropbox.com

Street name stockholders may contact their broker, bank, or other nominee to request information about householding.

What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year’s annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors?

Stockholder Proposals

Stockholders may present proposals for inclusion in our proxy statement and for consideration at next year’s annual meeting of stockholders by submitting their proposals in writing to our Corporate Secretary in a timely manner. For a stockholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement for the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, our Corporate Secretary must receive the written proposal at our principal executive offices not later than December 8, 2026. In addition, stockholder proposals must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials. Stockholder proposals should be addressed to the Corporate Secretary at the company's headquarters. The current address for our headquarters is:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GENERAL INFORMATION (continued)

Our bylaws also establish an advance notice procedure for stockholders who wish to present a proposal before an annual meeting of stockholders but do not intend for the proposal to be included in our proxy statement. Our bylaws provide that the only business that may be conducted at an annual meeting of stockholders is business that is (i) specified in our notice of annual meeting (or any supplement thereto), (ii) otherwise properly brought before such annual meeting by or at the direction of our board of directors, or (iii) properly brought before such meeting by a stockholder of record entitled to vote at such annual meeting who has delivered timely written notice to our Corporate Secretary, which notice must contain the information specified in our bylaws. To be timely for the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, our Corporate Secretary must receive the written notice at our principal executive offices:

•not earlier than January 22, 2027; and

•not later than February 21, 2027.

In the event that we hold the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders more than 30 days before or more than 60 days after the one-year anniversary of the Annual Meeting, a notice of a stockholder proposal that is not intended to be included in our proxy statement must be received no earlier than the close of business on the 120th day before the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders and no later than the close of business on the later of the following two dates:

•the 90th day prior to the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders; or

•the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders is first made.

If a stockholder who has notified us of his, her, or its intention to present a proposal at an annual meeting of stockholders does not appear to present his, her, or its proposal at such annual meeting, we are not required to present the proposal for a vote at such annual meeting.

Recommendation or Nomination of Director Candidates

Holders of 1% of our fully diluted capitalization for at least 12 months prior to the submission of the recommendation may recommend director candidates for consideration by our nominating and corporate governance committee. Any such recommendations should include the nominee’s name and qualifications for membership on our board of directors and should be directed to our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth above. For additional information regarding stockholder recommendations for director candidates, see the section titled “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance—Stockholder Recommendations and Nominations to the Board of Directors.”

Our bylaws permit stockholders to nominate directors for election at an annual meeting of stockholders. To nominate a director, the stockholder must provide the information required by our bylaws. In addition, the stockholder must give timely notice to our Corporate Secretary in accordance with our bylaws, which, in general, require that the notice be received by our Corporate Secretary within the time periods described above under the section titled “General Information—What is the deadline to propose actions for consideration at next year’s annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate individuals to serve as directors?—Stockholder Proposals” for stockholder proposals that are not intended to be included in a proxy statement.

In addition, a stockholder who desires to nominate director candidates for election at the 2027 Annual Meeting, which is expected to be held in or about May 2027, must comply with the requirements of the recently enacted Rule 14a-19 by notifying our Corporate Secretary with regard to the intent to solicit proxies in support of director nominees (other than our nominees) as required by Rule 14a-19 no later than March 22, 2027. Please note that the notice requirement under Rule 14a-19 is in addition to the applicable notice requirements under the advance notice provisions of our bylaws as described above.

Availability of Bylaws

A copy of our bylaws is available via the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov. You may also contact our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth above for a copy of the relevant bylaw provisions regarding the requirements for making stockholder proposals and nominating director candidates.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our business affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors. Our board of directors consists of eight directors, seven of whom qualified as “independent” under the listing rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”).

Until the outstanding shares of our Class B common stock represent less than a majority of the combined voting power of our common stock, we will have a single class of directors who are each elected for one-year terms and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. When the outstanding shares of our Class B common stock represent less than a majority of the combined voting power of our common stock, we will have a classified board of directors consisting of three classes of approximately equal size, each serving staggered three-year terms. Our directors will be assigned by the then-current board of directors to a class.

In determining the composition of our board, our board of directors and nominating and corporate governance committee are committed to ensuring that our directors maintain effective and independent oversight of our business and that they capably represent the interests of our company and our stockholders. In addition, our nominating and corporate governance committee strives to maintain a balance of tenure on our board. Long-serving directors bring valuable experience and institutional knowledge, while newer directors contribute fresh perspectives and viewpoints. The following charts provide summary information about our continuing directors and director nominees with respect to independence and tenure. For additional information regarding our criteria for evaluating director nominees, see the section titled “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance—Considerations in Evaluating Director Nominees.”
