PROXY STATEMENT FOR THE 2021 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

April 20, 2021

INFORMATION ABOUT SOLICITATION AND VOTING

The accompanying proxy is solicited on behalf of the board of directors of GoPro, Inc. ('GoPro') for use at GoPro's 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held virtually on June 1, 2021, at 11:30 a.m. (Pacific Time) ('Annual Meeting'), and any adjournment or postponement of the Annual Meeting. The Annual Meeting can be accessed by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/GPRO2021, where you will be able to listen to the meeting live, submit questions and vote online.The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials and this proxy statement for the Annual Meeting ('Proxy Statement') and the accompanying form of proxy were first distributed and made available on the Internet to stockholders on or about April 20, 2021. GoPro's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed on February 12, 2021 ('Annual Report') will be available with this Proxy Statement by following the instructions in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials.

INTERNET AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS

In accordance with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ('SEC') rules, we are using the Internet as our primary means of furnishing proxy materials to stockholders. Consequently, most stockholders will not receive paper copies of our proxy materials. We will instead send these stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials with instructions for accessing the proxy materials, including our Proxy Statement and Annual Report, and voting via the Internet. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials also provides information on how stockholders may obtain paper copies of our proxy materials if they so choose. We believe this rule makes the proxy distribution process more efficient and less costly and helps in conserving natural resources.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Purpose of the Annual Meeting

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will act upon the proposals described in this Proxy Statement.

Record Date; Quorum

Only holders of record of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock at the close of business on April 8, 2021, ('Record Date') will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on the Record Date, we had 125,244,940 shares of Class A common stock and 28,485,046 shares of Class B common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

Table of Contents

The holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock (voting together as a single class) entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting as of the Record Date must be present at the Annual Meeting in order to hold the Annual Meeting and conduct business. This presence is called a quorum. Your shares are counted as present at the Annual Meeting if you are present and vote online at the Annual Meeting or if you have properly submitted a proxy.

Voting Rights; Required Vote

In deciding all matters at the Annual Meeting, each holder of shares of our common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of Class A common stock held and ten votes for each share of Class B common stock held as of the close of business on the Record Date. We do not have cumulative voting rights for the election of directors. You may vote all shares owned by you as of the Record Date, including (i) shares held directly in your name as the stockholder of record, and (ii) shares held for you as the beneficial owner in street name through a brokerage firm, bank, trustee, or other nominee.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If, on the Record Date, your shares were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, then you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As a stockholder of record, you may vote at the Annual Meeting or vote by telephone, by Internet, or by filling out and returning the proxy card.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Nominee. If, on the Record Date, your shares were held in an account with a brokerage firm, bank, trustee or other nominee, then you are the beneficial owner of the shares held in street name. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your nominee on how to vote the shares held in your account, and your nominee has enclosed or provided voting instructions for you to use in directing it on how to vote your shares. However, the organization that holds your shares is the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. Because you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from the organization that holds your shares giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.

•Proposal No. 1 - Election of Directors. Each director will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast, which means that the nine individuals nominated for election to the board of directors at the Annual Meeting receiving the highest number of 'FOR' votes will be elected. You may either vote 'FOR' one or any of the nominees or 'WITHHOLD' your vote with respect to one or any of the nominees.

•Proposal No. 2 - Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Accounting Firm.Ratification of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2021 will be obtained if the number of votes cast 'FOR' the proposal at the Annual Meeting exceeds the number of votes 'AGAINST' the proposal.

•Proposal No. 3 - Advisory Vote on the Frequency of Future Advisory Votes on Executive Compensation. Approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, as to whether future advisory votes on executive compensation should be conducted every 'ONE YEAR,' 'TWO YEARS' or 'THREE YEARS.' You may also 'ABSTAIN' from voting. The frequency that receives the greatest number of votes cast by stockholders on this matter at the meeting will be considered the advisory vote of our stockholders.

2

Table of Contents

Broker non-votes occur when shares held by a broker for a beneficial owner are not voted either because (i) the broker did not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner or (ii) the broker lacked discretionary authority to vote the shares. Abstentions occur when shares present at the Annual Meeting are marked 'abstain.' A broker is entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on 'routine' matters, such as the ratification of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2021, without instructions from the beneficial owner of those shares. On the other hand, absent instructions from the beneficial owner of such shares, a broker is not entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on 'non-routine' matters. All the other proposals presented at the Annual Meeting are non-routine matters. Broker non-votes and abstentions are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present but have no effect on the outcome of the matters voted upon except where brokers can exercise discretion on 'routine' matters. Accordingly, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your broker, whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting.

Recommendations of the Board of Directors on Each of the Proposals Scheduled to be Voted on at the Annual Meeting

The board of directors recommends that you vote'FOR' each of the directors named in this Proxy Statement ('Proposal 1'),'FOR' the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2021 ('Proposal 2') and 'ONE YEAR' regarding the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation ('Proposal 3').

None of the directors or executive officers has any substantial interest in any matter to be acted upon, other than elections to office with respect to the directors so nominated.

Voting Instructions; Voting of Proxies

If you are a stockholder of record, you may:

•vote via the Annual Meeting website-any stockholder can attend the Annual Meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/GPRO2021, where stockholders may vote and submit questions during the meeting. The Annual Meeting starts at 11:30 a.m. (Pacific Time) on June 1, 2021. Please have your 16-Digit Control Number to join the Annual Meeting. Instructions on how to attend and participate via the Internet, including how to demonstrate proof of stock ownership, are posted at www.proxyvote.com;

•vote via telephone or Internet-in order to do so, please follow the instructions shown on your proxy card; or

•vote by mail-complete, sign and date the proxy card enclosed herewith and return it before the Annual Meeting in the envelope provided.

Votes submitted by telephone or Internet must be received by 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Time) on May 31, 2021. Submitting your proxy, whether via the Internet, by telephone, or by mail, will not affect your right to vote in person should you decide to attend the Annual Meeting. If you are not the stockholder of record, please refer to the voting instructions provided by your nominee to direct your nominee on how to vote your shares. You may either vote 'FOR' all of the nominees to the board of directors, or you may 'WITHHOLD' your vote from all nominees or any nominee you specify. For Proposal 2, you

3

Table of Contents

may vote 'FOR' or 'AGAINST' or 'ABSTAIN' from voting. For Proposal 3, you may vote 'ONE YEAR,' 'TWO YEARS' or 'THREE YEARS.' You may also 'ABSTAIN' from voting. Your vote is important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure that your vote is counted.

All proxies will be voted in accordance with the instructions specified on the proxy card. If you sign a physical proxy card and return it without instructions as to how your shares should be voted on a particular proposal at the Annual Meeting, your shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors stated above.

If you do not vote and you hold your shares in street name, and your broker does not have discretionary power to vote your shares, your shares may constitute 'broker non-votes' (as described above) and will not be counted in determining the number of shares necessary for approval of the proposals. However, shares that constitute broker non-votes will be counted for the purpose of establishing a quorum for the Annual Meeting.

If you receive more than one proxy card, this is because your shares are registered in more than one name or are registered in different accounts. To make certain all your shares are voted, please follow the instructions included on each proxy card and vote each proxy card by telephone or the Internet. If voting by mail, please complete, sign and return each proxy card to ensure that all your shares are voted.

Expenses of Soliciting Proxies

GoPro will pay the expenses of soliciting proxies. Following the original mailing of the soliciting materials, GoPro and its agents, including directors, officers and other employees, without additional compensation, may solicit proxies by mail, electronic mail, telephone, facsimile, by other similar means, or in person. Following the original mailing of the soliciting materials, GoPro will request brokers, custodians, nominees and other record holders to forward copies of the soliciting materials to persons for whom they hold shares and to request authority for the exercise of proxies. In such cases, GoPro, upon the request of the record holders, will reimburse such holders for their reasonable expenses. If you choose to access the proxy materials through the Internet, you are responsible for any Internet access charges you may incur.

Revocability of Proxies

A stockholder who has given a proxy may revoke it at any time before it is exercised at the Annual Meeting by:

•delivering to the Corporate Secretary of GoPro (by any means) a written notice stating that the proxy is revoked;

•signing and delivering a proxy bearing a later date;

•voting again by telephone or Internet; or

•attending and voting at the Annual Meeting (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy).

Please note, however, that if your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee and you wish to revoke a proxy, you must contact that firm to revoke any prior voting instructions.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD;

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STANDARDS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

GoPro is strongly committed to good corporate governance practices. These practices provide an important framework within which our board of directors and management can pursue our strategic objectives for the benefit of our stockholders. Our board of directors has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that set forth the role of our board of directors, director independence standards, board structure and functions, director selection considerations, and other governance policies. In addition, our board of directors has adopted written charters for its standing committees (audit, compensation and leadership, and nominating and governance), as well as a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including those officers responsible for financial reporting. Our board of directors generally reviews each of the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the committee charters, and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics annually and implements changes as appropriate. The Corporate Governance Guidelines, the committee charters, and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and any waivers or amendments to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, are all available on our Investor Relations website (http://investor.gopro.com) in the 'Corporate Governance' section.

Board Leadership Structure

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that our board of directors may choose its chairperson in any way that it considers to be in the best interests of our company. Our nominating and governance committee periodically considers the leadership structure of our board of directors, including the separation of the chairperson and chief executive officer roles and/or appointment of a lead independent director of our board of directors, and makes such recommendations to our board of directors as our nominating and governance committee deems appropriate. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines also provide that, when the positions of chairperson and chief executive officer are held by the same person, the independent directors may designate a 'lead independent director.' In cases in which the chairperson and chief executive officer are the same person, the responsibilities of the lead independent director include: scheduling and preparing agendas for meetings of the independent directors; serving as a liaison between the chief executive officer and the independent directors; being available, under appropriate circumstances, for consultation and direct communication with stockholders; ensuring our board of directors is fulfilling its oversight responsibilities in strategy, risk oversight and succession planning; and performing such other functions and responsibilities as requested by our board of directors from time to time.

Currently, our board of directors believes that it is in the best interest of our company and our stockholders for our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Woodman, to serve as both Chief Executive Officer and Chairman given his knowledge of our company, industry, and strategic vision. Because Mr. Woodman has served and continues to serve in both these roles, our board of directors appointed Kenneth Goldman to serve as our lead independent director in April 2017. As lead independent director, Mr. Goldman, presided over regularly scheduled meetings at which only our independent directors were present to foster open and honest communication, served as a liaison between the Chairman and the independent directors, and performed such additional duties as our board of directors may otherwise determine and delegate. Our board of directors believes that its independence and oversight of management is maintained effectively through this leadership structure, the composition of our board of directors and sound corporate governance policies and practices.

Our Board of Directors' Role in Risk Oversight

Our board of directors is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes. Our board of directors, as a whole, determines the appropriate level of risk for GoPro, assesses the specific risks that we face and reviews management's strategies for adequately mitigating and managing the identified risks, including but not limited to risks related to the Covid-19 pandemic. Although our board of directors administers this risk management oversight function, the committees of our board of directors support our board of directors in discharging its oversight duties and address risks inherent in their respective areas. The audit committee reviews our major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures, including our procedures and related policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The compensation and leadership committee reviews risks and exposures associated with compensation plans and programs, including incentive plans. The nominating and corporate governance committee assists the board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to the management of risks associated with our overall governance practices and the leadership structure of the board of directors (as described above under 'Board Leadership Structure'). Our board of directors is kept informed of each committee's risk oversights and other activities via regular reports of the committee chairs to the full board of directors.

We believe this division of responsibilities is an effective approach for addressing the risks we face and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.

Our Board of Directors' Role in Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Oversight

Our board of directors also recognizes the importance of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues, and therefore is committed to maintaining high ethical standards, upholding our corporate values and implementing environmentally and socially responsible business practices. Below are some highlights of our Company ESG initiatives:

2020 Environmental, Supply Chain & Social Highlights
Environmental	In 2020, we updated our camera packaging and removed the hard-plastic jewel case display from our new flagship camera packaging. We also reduced the amount of cardboard materials used in that packaging by replacing cardboard materials with a reusable hard-shell carry case.
Supply Chain	We require all suppliers to comply with our GoPro Supplier Corporate Social Responsibility Code of Conduct (the 'Corporate Social Responsibility Code'). The Corporate Social Responsibility Code seeks to promote safe and fair working conditions and urges our suppliers to go beyond legal compliance to advance social responsibility. Our Corporate Social Responsibility Code prohibits the use of underage labor, prohibits forced or prison labor, and mandates workplaces free of harassment or discrimination. We are committed to responsible sourcing of materials using ethical business principles, the promotion and protection of human rights, and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. We require all of our suppliers to share this commitment through acknowledgment of our GoPro Supply Chain Code of Conduct (detailed at https://gopro.com/en/us/legal/casupplychaindisclosure). We work with suppliers to promote conflict-free sourcing of all parts and products supplied to us. We have conducted due diligence in accordance with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High Risk Areas (OECD 2016) to ascertain whether any conflict minerals used in our products originated in the Democratic Republic of Congo, its adjoining countries, or countries considered to be possible smuggling routes of materials from the conflict area.

Social

Our employees receive annual training on our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which all employees are required to review and acknowledge. All new employees undergo onboarding training that covers, among other things, the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, global anti-corruption, prevention of sexual harassment and discrimination; and diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging. In 2020, GoPro signed the Outdoor CEO Diversity Pledge to encourage daily mindfulness and to foster awareness and participation in actions that promote diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging at our Company. We are committed to hiring diversely, understanding that contributions from different perspectives will make us stronger, more successful, and more capable of serving a diverse customer base. In the summer of 2020, GoPro identified three organizations to support monetarily and with in-kind donations to make a commitment to support empowerment within the Black community and promote lasting policy change and justice reform in pursuit of a racism-free future: •GirlTrek: With over 700,000 members GirlTrek, the largest public health nonprofit for African-American women and girls in the United States, is pioneering a health movement grounded in civil rights history and principles through walking campaigns, community leadership and health advocacy. •My Brother's Keeper Alliance: My Brother's Keeper Alliance is focused on building safe and supportive communities for boys and young men of color where they feel valued and have clear pathways to opportunity. •The Southern Center for Human Rights: The Southern Center for Human Rights works for equality, dignity and justice for people impacted by the criminal legal system in the Deep South. The Southern Center for Human Rights fights for a world free from mass incarceration, the death penalty, the criminalization of poverty, and racial injustice. Also in 2020, and moving forward, to celebrate and honor the Black Lives Matter movement, and in support of racial justice, GoPro has decided to respect Juneteenth (June 19) as a new company holiday, by giving all US full-time employees the day off to listen, learn, share and reflect. More information on these and other initiatives can be found at: https://gopro.com/en/us/news/end-racism-now. In addition, each year, every employee can request that the Company donate a current model HERO camera to a US 501(c)(3) charitable organization on their behalf.

Director Independence

Our board of directors determines the independence of our directors by applying the applicable rules, regulations and listing standards of The Nasdaq Global Select Market ('Nasdaq') and applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. The applicable rules, regulations and listing standards of Nasdaq provide that a director is independent only if the board of directors affirmatively determines that the director does not have a relationship with the company which, in the opinion of the board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of his or her independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. They also specify various relationships that preclude a determination of director

Table of Contents

independence. Such relationships may include employment, commercial, accounting, family and other business, professional and personal relationships.

Applying these standards, our board of directors annually reviews the independence of our directors, taking into account all relevant facts and circumstances. In its most recent review, our board of directors considered, among other things, the relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director, any transactions involving non-employee directors described in 'Related Party Transactions' and any transactions or relationships not required to be disclosed in such section.

Our board of directors has determined that Messrs. Ahmad-Taylor, Goldman, Gotcher, Lanzone, Lurie and Welts, and Mses. Lyne and Zalaznick, are 'independent directors' as defined under the applicable rules, regulations and listing standards of Nasdaq and applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. All members of our audit committee, compensation and leadership committee and nominating and governance committee must be independent directors under the applicable rules, regulations and listing standards of Nasdaq. Members of the audit committee also must satisfy a separate SEC independence requirement, which provides that (i) they may not accept directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from GoPro or any of our subsidiaries other than their directors' compensation, and (ii) they may not be an affiliated person of GoPro or any of our subsidiaries. Members of the compensation and leadership committee also must satisfy a separate SEC independence requirement and a related Nasdaq listing standard with respect to their affiliation with GoPro and any consulting, advisory or other fees they may have received from us. Our board of directors has determined that all members of our audit committee, compensation and leadership committee and nominating and governance committee are independent and satisfy the relevant SEC and Nasdaq independence requirements for such committees.

Board and Committee Meetings and Attendance

Our board of directors and its committees meet throughout the year on a set schedule, and hold special meetings and act by written consent from time to time. During 2020, our board of directors met nine times, including telephonic meetings, the audit committee held five meetings, the compensation and leadership committee held seven meetings, and the nominating and governance committee held three meetings. All of our directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings held by our board of directors and of the total number of meetings held by all committees of our board of directors on which such director served (during the period in which the director served).

Audit Committee

Our audit committee is comprised of Mr. Goldman, who serves as the chair, Mr. Gotcher and Mr. Lurie. Our board of directors has determined that each member of the audit committee meets the requirements for independence under the applicable rules, regulations and listing standards of Nasdaq and applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. Each member of our audit committee is financially literate. In addition, our board of directors has determined that Mr. Goldman is an audit committee financial expert within the meaning of Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ('Securities Act').

Our board of directors has determined that each member of our compensation and leadership committee meets the requirements for independence under current Nasdaq and SEC rules, regulations and listing standards. Each member of this committee is also a non-employee director, as defined pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ('Exchange Act'), an outside director, as defined pursuant to Section 162(m) and is 'independent' as defined in Section 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq rules and Rule 10C-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The purpose of our compensation and leadership committee is to carry out the responsibilities of our board of directors relating to compensation of our executive officers. Our compensation and leadership committee, among other things:

•reviews and determines the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, executive officers and other executives reporting to the Chief Executive Officer;

•administers our equity incentive plans; and

•establishes and reviews general policies relating to compensation and benefits of our employees.

The compensation and leadership committee engaged an independent executive compensation consulting firm, Compensia, Inc. ('Compensia'), to evaluate our executive compensation program and practices and to provide advice and ongoing assistance on executive compensation matters for 2020. Specifically, Compensia was engaged to:

•provide compensation-related data for a peer group of companies to serve as a basis for assessing competitive compensation practices;

•review and assess our current director policies and practices, Chief Executive Officer and other executive officer compensation policies and practices and equity profile relative to market practices (with director compensation review done for the benefit of the nominating and governance committee, which per its charter has responsibility for director compensation review and recommendation);

•review and assess our current executive compensation program relative to market to identify any potential changes or enhancements to be brought to the attention of the compensation and leadership committee; and

•review market practices on employee stock purchase plans and other equity programs.

During 2020, Compensia worked directly with the compensation and leadership committee (and not on behalf of management) to assist the committee in satisfying its responsibilities and undertook no projects for management without the committee's prior approval. The compensation and leadership committee has determined that none of the work performed by Compensia during 2020 raised any conflicts of interest.

Nominating and Governance Committee

The nominating and governance committee is comprised of Ms. Zalaznick, who serves as the chair, Messrs. Ahmad-Taylor and Lanzone and Ms. Lyne. Our board of directors has determined that each member of our nominating and governance committee meets the requirements for independence under current Nasdaq rules, regulations and listing standards. Our nominating and governance committee, among other things:

•identifies, evaluates and recommends nominees to our board of directors and committees of our board of directors;

•conducts searches for appropriate directors;

•evaluates the performance of our board of directors;

•considers and makes recommendations to our board of directors regarding the composition of our board of directors and its committees and related compensation (and was assisted in its 2020 director compensation review by Compensia);

•reviews developments in corporate governance practices;

•evaluates the adequacy of our corporate governance practices and reporting; and

•makes recommendations to our board of directors concerning corporate governance matters.

Our Board Evaluation Process

The Board is committed to reviewing its performance through an annual evaluation process to continually enhance and improve its performance. Through these evaluations, the nominating and governance committee oversees the assessment of the Board's processes, committees, meetings, planning, and overall effectiveness.

discussion. Any findings that require additional consideration are addressed at subsequent Board and committee meetings.

Compensation and Leadership Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of our compensation and leadership committee has at any time been one of our officers or employees. None of our executive officers currently serves, or in the past has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation and leadership committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions) of any entity that has one or more of its executive officers serving on our board of directors or our compensation and leadership committee.

Board Attendance at Annual Stockholders' Meeting

NOMINATIONS PROCESS AND DIRECTOR QUALIFICATIONS

Nomination to the Board of Directors

Candidates for nomination to our board of directors are selected by our board of directors based on the recommendation of the nominating and governance committee in accordance with the committee's charter, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, our Corporate Governance Guidelines, and the criteria adopted by our board of directors regarding director candidate qualifications. In recommending candidates for nomination, the nominating and governance committee considers candidates recommended by directors, officers, employees, stockholders and others, using the same criteria to evaluate all candidates. Evaluations of candidates generally involve a review of background materials, internal discussions and interviews with selected candidates as appropriate and, in addition, the committee may engage consultants or third-party search firms to assist it in identifying and evaluating potential nominees.

In 2020 no new candidates were considered for nomination.

Additional information regarding the process for properly submitting stockholder nominations for candidates for membership on our board of directors is set forth below under 'Additional Information - Stockholder Proposals to Be Presented at Next Annual Meeting.'

Director Qualifications

With the goal of developing a diverse, experienced and highly qualified board of directors, the nominating and governance committee is responsible for developing and recommending to our board of directors the desired qualifications, expertise and characteristics of members of our board of directors, including qualifications that the committee believes must be met by a committee-recommended nominee for membership on our board of directors and specific qualities or skills that the committee believes are necessary for one or more of the members of our board of directors to possess.

Since the identification, evaluation and selection of qualified directors is a complex and subjective process that requires consideration of many intangible factors, and will be significantly influenced by the particular needs of our board of directors from time to time, our board of directors has not adopted a specific set of minimum qualifications, qualities or skills that are necessary for a nominee to possess, other than those that are necessary to meet U.S. legal, regulatory and Nasdaq listing requirements and the provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws, Corporate Governance Guidelines, and charters of the board committees. When considering nominees, our nominating and governance committee may take into consideration many factors, including among other things, a candidate's independence, integrity, diversity (inclusive of age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation and gender identity, in accordance with the nominating and governance committee charter), skills, knowledge about our business or industry, willingness and ability to devote adequate time and effort to the board of directors responsibilities in the context of the existing composition, knowledge about other areas that are expected to contribute to the board of directors' overall effectiveness, and needs of the board of directors and its committees. Our board of directors and nominating and governance committee believe that a diverse, experienced and highly qualified board of directors fosters a robust, comprehensive and balanced decision-making process for the continued effective functioning of our board of directors and success of the Company. Accordingly, through the nomination process, the nominating and governance committee seeks to promote board membership that reflects a diversity of business experience, expertise, viewpoints, personal backgrounds and characteristics that are expected to contribute to our board of directors' overall effectiveness.

† Lead Independent Director

Nicholas Woodman founded GoPro and has served as our Chief Executive Officer and a member of the board of directors since 2004, as Chairman since January 2014 and as President from 2004 until June 2014. Mr. Woodman got his start in 1998 by founding an online gaming company, Funbug.com. When that venture failed in 2001, Mr. Woodman planned an international surfing trip to look for inspiration. While preparing for that trip, Mr. Woodman had the idea for a 35mm film-based wrist camera that could be worn during sports like surfing, enabling the user to capture images while engaged in the sport. This idea became GoPro's first product, the HERO Camera. In the years that followed, Mr. Woodman, along with friends, family and employees, innovated on the HERO Camera concept along with a wide array of mounting devices that make it easy to mount the camera to everything from helmets to surfboards, vehicles and more recently a software subscription service to manage, edit, and store camera content. Mr. Woodman holds a B.A. in Visual Arts from the University of California, San Diego. We believe Mr. Woodman's experience as the founder of GoPro and his knowledge of our

Non-Employee Director Compensation Arrangements

Only the non-employee Directors of the Company are compensated for service on the Board.

GoPro adopted a Director Compensation Policy at the time of our IPO in June 2014. The Director Compensation Policy is intended to:

•provide fair compensation commensurate with the work required to serve on our Board;

•be aligned with compensation paid to directors at our peer group companies and reflect the size, scope and complexity of GoPro;

•align directors' interests with the interests of our stockholders; and

•to be easily understood and communicated - both to the directors and to our stockholders.

Annual Review and Benchmarking

Each year our nominating and governance committee undertakes a full review of our then current Director Compensation Policy. The nominating and governance committee engages Compensia to undertake an independent assessment of the Director Compensation Policy and make recommendations to ensure compliance with the goals listed above, director pay at comparable companies (including any revisions to our peer group) and sound governance principles. The annual review typically begins early in the fiscal year, and the nominating and governance committee makes its recommendations to the Board during Q2 regarding any revisions to the then current policy. As a result of the 2020 review and recommendation, in April 2020 the Board determined that no changes would be made to the Director Compensation Policy for the 2020-2021 board service cycle. At that same meeting, in response to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the Company, and the uncertainty of future events, our board of directors voluntarily waived the cash compensation for director service that would have been paid during the period beginning April 14, 2020 and ending December 31, 2020.

Prior to our IPO in June 2014, all equity awards were approved under and governed by the GoPro, Inc. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan ('2010 Plan'). At the time of our IPO, the GoPro, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan ('2014 Plan') become active, and all equity grants following the date of IPO were awarded under and governed by the 2014 Plan.

RSU awards to directors are made annually upon election to our board of directors at our Annual Meeting.

The award value is converted to RSUs using the 3-month trailing average of our closing price through the date immediately preceding the date of grant. The RSUs vest as to 25% of the total RSUs granted in each quarter following the date of grant with the final 25% to vest on the earlier of the next Annual Meeting or the one-year anniversary of the date of grant, subject to continuous service on the board through each vesting date. The RSUs will accelerate and vest in full in the event of a change in control of GoPro as defined in the 2014 Plan.

The cash retainers are paid quarterly in arrears.

Non-employee directors receive no other form of remuneration, perquisites or benefits, but are reimbursed for their reasonable travel expenses incurred in attending board and committee meetings.

PROPOSAL NO. 2

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Our audit committee has re-appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as GoPro's independent registered public accounting firm to perform the audit of GoPro's consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2021 and recommends that stockholders vote for ratification of such selection. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has served as GoPro's independent registered public accounting firm since 2011. The audit committee continuously evaluates the independence and effectiveness of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and its personnel, and the cost and quality of its audit and audit-related services.

Although ratification by stockholders is not required by law, GoPro has determined that it is good practice to request ratification of this selection by the stockholders. In the event that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not ratified by our stockholders, the audit committee will review its future selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as GoPro's independent registered public accounting firm.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP audited GoPro's financial statements for the years ended 2020 and 2019. Representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, in which case, they will be given an opportunity to make a statement at the Annual Meeting if they desire to do so, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE 'FOR' APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL NO. 2

PROPOSAL NO. 3

ADVISORY VOTE TO ON THE FREQUENCY OF

FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

General

In accordance with the requirements of Section 14A of the Exchange Act (which was added by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the ''Dodd-Frank Act'')) and the related rules of the SEC, we are providing stockholders an opportunity to make a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation. This non-binding advisory vote must be submitted to stockholders every six years. While the results of the vote are non-binding and advisory in nature, the board of directors intends to carefully consider the results of this vote.

You have four choices for voting on the following resolution. You can choose whether future advisory votes on executive compensation should be conducted every 'ONE YEAR,' 'TWO YEARS' or 'THREE YEARS.' You may also 'ABSTAIN' from voting. The frequency that receives the greatest number of votes cast by stockholders on this matter at the meeting will be considered the advisory vote of our stockholders.

At our 2015 Annual Meeting, we asked our stockholders to express a preference for the frequency of our Say-On-Pay vote. In 2015, the majority of our stockholders voted to hold the Say-On-Pay vote every three years.

After careful consideration, the nominating and governance committee and board of directors recommend that future advisory votes on compensation of our Named Executive Officers be held annually. Our board of directors believes that holding an annual vote is the most appropriate option because (i) it would provide immediate and direct input from our stockholders on our compensation principles and practices as disclosed in the proxy statement every year, (ii) an annual advisory vote provides frequent communication from our stockholders, which is consistent with our efforts to seek input from our stockholders regarding corporate governance and our compensation philosophy, and (iii) the lack of an annual Say-On-Pay advisory vote might make it more difficult for us to understand the outcome of a stockholder vote as to whether the stockholder vote pertains to the compensation disclosed in the current year proxy statement or pay practices relating to previous years.

Stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove the board of directors' recommendation. Instead, stockholders may indicate their preference regarding the frequency of future advisory votes on the compensation of our Named Executive Officers by selecting one year, two years or three years. Stockholders that do not have a preference regarding the frequency of future advisory votes may abstain from voting on the proposal. For the reasons discussed above, we are asking our stockholders to vote for the future of frequency advisory votes on the compensation for our Named Executive Officers to occur annually.

Your vote on this proposal is advisory, and therefore not binding on GoPro, the board of directors or the nominating and governance committee, and will not be interpreted as overruling a decision by, or creating or implying any additional fiduciary duty for, the board or the compensation and leadership committee. Nevertheless, our board of directors and nominating and governance committee value the opinions of our stockholders and will take into account the outcome of this vote when making future decisions regarding the frequency of holding future advisory votes on executive compensation.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Introduction

GoPro's executive compensation programs, policies and practices ('ECPs') are designed to reflect the three major tenets of our executive compensation philosophy, namely to:

•Align executive compensation with the achievement of our business objectives and financial performance;

•Motivate our executive officers to take actions that enhance long-term stockholder value; and

•Enable us to attract, reward and retain our executive officers who contribute to our success.

We manage our ECPs, including compensation-related corporate governance standards, in a manner consistent with our executive compensation philosophy. These ECPs are intended to drive performance and prohibit or minimize behaviors that we do not believe serve our stockholders' long-term interests.

Business Highlights for 2020

In 2020, we continued to evolve GoPro into a more efficient subscription-oriented direct-to-consumer business. We grew our GoPro paid subscriber base by 145% year-over-year and generated more than $200 million in cash flow from operations in the second half of the year, contributing to a year-end cash balance of $328 million. Strong Q4 performance resulted in $0.39 of non-GAAP EPS for the quarter and $0.08 of non-GAAP EPS for the year. Additionally, GoPro's adjusted EBITDA for the full year 2020 was $43.2 million.

One of our 2020 priorities was to make the GoPro subscription central to our business. To further the GoPro subscription business priority, we set a goal in 2020 to grow paid subscribers from 311,00 paid subscribers at the beginning of the year to between 600,000 and 700,000 paid subscribers by the end of the year. We exceeded that goal, driving the number of paid subscribers to 761,000 by year end, moving the GoPro subscription business towards a more meaningful element of our business.

On April 15, 2020, as a result of the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on our business, GoPro announced a strategic restructuring to focus on become a more efficient and profitable direct-to-consumer business. This resulted in a reduction of $100 million in operating expenses including a workforce reduction of more than 20%. Our resulting 2020 performance amidst the pandemic demonstrates GoPro's continued relevance as a personal experience-sharing solution for consumers and a creative tool for professionals. While GoPro has endured during the pandemic and exceeded our targets for paid subscriptions, we did not meet our 2020 targets for net revenue and pre-tax profit/loss.

We doubled full year GoPro.com revenue to $283 million and plan to build upon our direct-to-consumer success. Our select retail partners and distributors around the world will continue to play an important role in our global strategy - a strategy we believe will yield improving margins and profitability while serving our end users wherever they want to be served.

Table of Contents

In 2020, we took an approach to keep our people safe and healthy while adapting to pandemic-related work circumstances. Our teams adapted well to these changes, delivering our newest flagship HERO9 Black, software, subscription services and lifestyle products. We also updated the GoPro app with a new feature called Mural - a personal content management 'mural' that solves for the bottomless pit that is everyone's smartphone camera roll, and in Q1 of 2021 renamed the GoPro app to Quik. This new app experience is derived from our legacy, free-to-use video editing app, Quik, which had nearly 9 million monthly active users in 2020. We plan to migrate users of the legacy Quik app to the new Quik app over time as part of our subscription growth efforts and are excited to continue building upon our app's capabilities to serve the needs of both GoPro camera owners and non-owners alike - thereby expanding our TAM while growing new, higher operating margin revenue streams.

We also adapted how we marketed our products and designed unique features into our products to support customers as they adjusted to life during a pandemic such as the #HomePro challenge, the launch of HD webcam features for our cameras, and the launch of a live streaming platform for GoPro subscribers.

We're excited about 2021 and believe the steps we took to strengthen our business in 2020 will benefit us when the world eventually rebounds from the pandemic.

Executive Compensation Best Practices

Compensation and Leadership Committee Independence	Our board of directors maintains a compensation and leadership committee comprised solely of independent directors.
Compensation and Leadership Committee Advisor Independence	The compensation and leadership committee engages and retains its own advisors. During 2020, the compensation and leadership committee engaged Compensia, an independent national compensation consulting firm, to assist with its responsibilities.
Annual Compensation Review	The compensation and leadership committee annually reviews our executive compensation philosophy and strategy, including reviewing the composition of our compensation peer group.
Compensation-Related Risk Assessment	We conduct annual evaluations of our compensation programs, policies, and practices, including our ECPs, to ensure that they reflect an appropriate level of risk-taking but do not encourage our employees to take excessive or unnecessary risks that could have a material adverse impact on GoPro.
No Executive Perquisites	We do not offer perquisites or other personal benefits to our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, or NEOs, except where we believe it is appropriate to assist an individual in the performance of his or her duties, to make our executive officers more efficient and effective, and for recruitment and retention purposes. Our executive officers, including our NEOs, participate in our health and welfare benefit programs on the same basis as all our employees.
'Double-Trigger' Reasonable Change in Control Arrangements	The change in control post-employment compensation arrangements for our executive officers, including our NEOs, are based on a 'double-trigger' arrangement that provides for the receipt of payments and benefits only in the event of (i) a change in control of our company and (ii) a qualifying termination of employment.
Executive Severance Benefits	The Executive Severance Policy is intended to provide specified payments and benefits to certain executive officers (other than the Chief Executive Officer), and other employees of the Company, in the event of certain terminations of employment not involving a change in control of the Company. In addition, our arrangement with Mr. Woodman provides for the receipt of payments and benefits in the event of a qualifying termination of employment.

34

Table of Contents

Prohibition on Hedging and Pledging	Our management team, including our NEOs, and the members of our board of directors, are prohibited from speculating in our equity securities, including the use of short sales, or any equivalent transaction involving our equity securities and from engaging in any hedging or pledging transactions with respect to our equity securities.
Succession Planning	Our board of directors reviews the risks associated with our most critical executive positions on an annual basis so that we have an adequate succession strategy, and we have plans in place for these critical positions.
Retirement Programs	Other than our Section 401(k) plan, which is generally available to all U.S. employees, we do not offer defined benefit or contribution retirement plans or arrangements or nonqualified deferred compensation plans or arrangements for our management team, including our NEOs.
Compensation Recoupment Policy	We maintain a compensation recoupment policy applicable to cash incentive-based compensation awards paid to our executive officers. In the event of a material restatement of financial results filed with the SEC, the policy permits our board of directors, if the board determines it appropriate under the circumstances, to seek recovery of all or any portion of the incentive awards paid or awarded to an executive officer who is found to have engaged in fraud or intentional or illegal conduct in excess of the awards that would have been paid or awarded based on the restated financial results.
Stock Ownership Guidelines	In July 2020, the compensation and leadership committee adopted revised stock ownership guidelines for our Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, other Section 16 Officers and non-employee directors to align their interests with those of our stockholders.

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis ('CD&A') is intended to assist our stockholders in understanding our ECPs by presenting the following:

Elements of Our Executive Compensation Program

Compensation Philosophy and Guiding Principles

We have designed our ECPs to reward our executive officers, including our NEOs, at a level consistent with our overall business strategy and financial performance and to provide remuneration sufficient to attract, retain, and motivate them to exert their best efforts in the highly-competitive technology and consumer-oriented environments in which we operate. We have also designed our ECPs to reward our executive officers, including our NEOs, for superior performance. We believe that competitive compensation packages consisting of a combination of base salaries, annual cash bonus opportunities, and long-term incentive opportunities in the form of equity awards that are earned over a multi-year period, enable us to attract top talent, motivate effective short-term and long-term performance, and satisfy our retention objectives. As an overarching objective, we seek to design each pay element to align the compensation of our executive officers with our corporate performance and long-term value creation for our stockholders. That principle has guided the design of both the annual and long-term incentive compensation of our executive officers.

The compensation and leadership committee reviews and analyzes market trends and the prevalence of various compensation delivery vehicles and adjusts the design and operation of our executive compensation program as it deems necessary and appropriate. While the compensation and leadership committee considers these factors in its deliberations and places no formal emphasis on any one factor in its overall compensation strategy, our annual Executive Bonus Plan does assign values to specific performance metrics.

The compensation and leadership committee will continue to evaluate our compensation philosophy and program objectives as circumstances merit. At a minimum, we expect the compensation and leadership committee to review executive compensation annually and update as deemed necessary and appropriate.

Compensation Elements

The three primary elements of our executive compensation program are: (i) base salary, (ii) annual cash bonus opportunities, and (iii) long-term incentive opportunities in the form of equity awards subject to multi-year vesting, in each case as described below:

Compensation Element	What This Element Rewards	Purpose and Key Features of Element
Base salary	Individual performance, level of experience, expected future performance and contributions.	Provides competitive level of fixed compensation determined by the market value of the position, and the qualifications, experience and performance expectations of each executive officer and each position.
Annual cash bonuses	Achievement of pre-established corporate and individual performance objectives (for 2020, focused on our revenue growth, profitability and paid subscription growth, as well as individual contributions and management objectives).	Motivate executive officers to achieve, during the fiscal year, (i) short-term financial and operational objectives, and (ii) individual performance objectives. Performance levels are established to motivate our executive officers to achieve or exceed performance objectives.
Long-term incentives/equity awards	Corporate and individual performance that enhance long-term stockholder value. Vesting requirements promote retention of highly-valued executive officers.	Annual (i) stock options and Restricted Stock Units ('RSUs') that vest over three to four years, based on continued service, and (ii) Performance Stock Units ('PSUs') that are subject to both a performance-based vesting condition (as determined by the compensation and leadership committee) and a service-based vesting condition, each of which provides a variable 'at risk' pay opportunity. Because the ultimate value of these equity awards is directly related to the market price of our Class A common stock, and the awards are subject to vesting over an extended period of time, they serve to focus management on the creation and maintenance of long-term stockholder value and help us attract, retain, motivate, and reward executive officers.

Our executive officers also participate in the standard employee benefit plans available to most of our employees. In addition, our executive officers are eligible for post-employment payments and benefits under certain circumstances (severance and change in control payments and benefits). Each of these compensation elements is discussed in detail below, including a description of each particular element and how it fits into our overall executive compensation program and a discussion of the amounts of compensation paid to our executive officers, including our NEOs, in 2020 under each of these elements.

Base Salary

We believe that a competitive base salary is a necessary element of our executive compensation program, so that we can attract and retain a stable and highly qualified management team. Base salaries for our executive officers are intended to be competitive with those received by other individuals in similar positions at the companies with which we compete for talent, and to maintain internal parity across our executive officer team.

Generally we take into consideration peer market data provided by Compensia for the role we are looking to fill. We establish the initial base salaries of our executive officers through arm's-length negotiation at the time we hire the individual executive officer, taking into account his or her position, qualifications, experience, and the base salaries of our other executive officers. Thereafter, the compensation and leadership committee reviews the base salaries of our executive officers, including our NEOs, at least annually.

Annual Cash Bonuses

Our executive officers, including our NEOs, are participants in our annual Executive Bonus Plan, pursuant to which we generally use annual cash bonuses to motivate participants to achieve our short-term financial and operational objectives while making progress towards our longer-term growth and other goals. Consistent with our executive compensation philosophy, these annual bonuses are intended to help us to deliver a competitive target total direct compensation opportunity to our executive officers. Annual cash bonuses for our executive officers are intended to be competitive with those received by other individuals in similar positions at the companies with which we compete for top talent, and to maintain internal parity across our executive team.

The compensation and leadership committee determines bonus targets, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, such as mid-year changes in base salary and leaves of absence. Overall funding of the bonus pool is generally determined by reference to corporate performance measures, but the compensation and leadership committee can, at its discretion, adjust individual participants' bonuses, based on each participant's individual performance. Individual performance goals for each participant are generally identified at the beginning of the year in discussions with our Chief Executive Officer (except with respect to his own performance goals). These goals may be quantitative or qualitative in nature, depending on the organizational priorities for a given year, and they typically focus on key departmental or operational objectives or functions. Most of these goals are intended to provide a set of common objectives that facilitate collaborative management and engagement, although participants could also be assigned individual objectives.

In light of the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on corporate performance measures, no annual bonus was paid in 2020 to our NEOs or employees. As a result, the compensation and leadership committee determined that a semi-annual bonus plan is appropriate for 2021 in order to motivate participants to achieve our short-term financial and operational objectives while continuing to make progress towards our longer-term growth and other goals. The compensation and leadership committee maintained the same key performance categories as established for 2020 and re-distributed the weighting in 2021 for net revenue and paid subscriptions (25% net revenue, 50% pre-tax profit/loss and 25% paid subscriptions).

Long-Term Incentives/Equity Awards

We use long-term incentive compensation in the form of equity awards to motivate our executive officers, including our NEOs, by providing them with the opportunity to build an equity interest in GoPro and to share in the potential appreciation in the value of our Class A common stock.

Generally, in determining the size of the equity awards granted to our executive officers, including our NEOs, the compensation and leadership committee takes into consideration the recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer (except with respect to his own equity award), as well as the factors described in Compensation Setting Process, below. The compensation and leadership committee also considers the dilutive effect of our long-term incentive compensation practices, and the overall impact that these equity awards, as well as awards to other employees, may have on stockholder value.

Annual equity awards are granted to our executive officers, including our NEOs, in the form of stock options, which represent the right to purchase shares of our Class A common stock at a price equal to the fair market value of our Class A common stock on the date of grant subject to time-based vesting; RSUs, which represent the right to receive shares of our Class A common stock subject to time-based vesting; and PSUs, which represent the right to receive shares of our Class A common stock subject to both achievement of one or more performance metrics and time-based vesting. The proportion and mix of long-term equity vehicles (time-based stock options, time-based RSUs, and performance-based PSUs) is determined by the compensation and leadership committee each year (see 'Executive Compensation Decisions for 2020 - Long-Term Incentive Compensation' below). The compensation and leadership committee evaluates equity vehicles annually to determine which form and mix of equity best aligns executive incentives with the long-term interest of our stockholders. The compensation and leadership committee may also choose to utilize other performance-based equity vehicles.

On February 18, 2020, the compensation and leadership committee granted additional PSUs with a grant date of February 18, 2020 to Nicholas Woodman, Brian McGee, Dean Jahnke and Eve Saltman. These 2020 PSUs were designed to be earned and vest between 0% and 150% of a target number of shares based upon achievement of two metrics: (1) a threshold profitability level to a maximum profitability level, and (2) a threshold subscription hurdle to a maximum subscription hurdle. 50% of each 2020 PSU will be earned (if at all) based on the satisfaction of the profitability threshold and the other 50% of each 2020 PSU will be earned (if at all) based on the satisfaction of the subscription threshold. To the extent actually earned, the 2020 PSUs will be subject to time-based vesting, with one third of the total number of shares earned under each 2020 PSU vesting on the initial vesting date of February 15, 2021 and an additional one-twelfth of the total number of earned shares under each 2020 PSU vesting quarterly thereafter, for so long as the recipient remains in service to GoPro. If GoPro undergoes a change in control before the performance measurement period has ended, then the revenue achievement metric would have been adjusted to reflect the pre-closing period, and the 2020 PSUs determined to be so earned pursuant to the adjusted metric will remain subject to any remaining time-based vesting, which will be governed by the individual executive's change in control severance agreements.

Welfare and Health Benefits

We maintain a tax-qualified retirement plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the 'Code') for our U.S. employees, including our executive officers, who satisfy certain eligibility requirements, including requirements relating to age and length of service, that provides them with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. We intend for this plan to qualify under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code so that contributions by employees to the plan, and income earned on plan contributions, are not taxable to employees until distributed from the plan. Under the plan, pre-tax contributions are allocated to each participant's individual account and are then invested in selected investment alternatives according to the participants' directions.

All participants' interests in their deferrals are 100% vested when contributed to this plan. The Company matches 100% of the employee's personal contributions up to 4% of eligible compensation. In 2020, we made matching contributions into the Section 401(k) plan for our employees, which are deductible when made by the Company. However, due to the impact of the pandemic and changes in our economic circumstances, we suspended the company matching contributions as of May 14, 2020. Globally, we maintain retirement programs for our non-US employees where applicable.

In addition, we provide certain other benefits to our executive officers, including our NEOs, on the same basis as all our full-time employees. These benefits include health, dental and vision benefits, health and dependent care flexible spending accounts, short-term and long-term disability insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, basic life insurance coverage and discretionary time-off. We do not offer our employees a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, a defined benefit pension or an actuarial plan.

We design our employee benefits programs to be affordable and competitive in relation to the market, as well as compliant with applicable laws and practices. We adjust our employee benefits programs as needed based upon regular monitoring of applicable laws and practices, the competitive market and our employees' needs.

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits

Currently, we do not view perquisites or other personal benefits as a component of our executive compensation program. Accordingly, we do not provide perquisites to our executive officers, except in situations where we believe it is appropriate to assist an individual in the performance of his or her duties, to make our executive officers more efficient and effective, and for recruitment and retention purposes. During 2020, none of the NEOs received perquisites or other personal benefits that were, in the aggregate, valued at $10,000 or more. In the future, we may provide perquisites or other personal benefits to our executive officers where we believe it serves a sound business purpose. We do not expect that any future perquisites or other personal benefits will be a significant aspect of our executive compensation program. All future practices with respect to perquisites or other personal benefits will be approved and subject to periodic review by the compensation and leadership committee.

Further Considerations for Setting Executive Compensation

Compensation-Setting Process

Role of the Compensation and Leadership Committee

The compensation and leadership committee is responsible for establishing our overall compensation philosophy and reviewing and approving our executive compensation program, including the specific compensation of our executive officers, including our NEOs. The compensation and leadership committee has the authority to retain special counsel and other advisors, including compensation consultants, to assist in carrying out its responsibilities to determine the compensation of our executive officers and, as noted previously, in 2020 retained an executive compensation consultant, Compensia, Inc. ('Compensia'), as further discussed below. The compensation and leadership committee's authority, duties, and responsibilities are described in its charter, which is reviewed annually and revised and updated as warranted. The charter is available on our website at http://investor.gopro.com.

In determining our overall compensation philosophy and approving the compensation of our executive officers, the compensation and leadership committee is assisted by its compensation consultant, as well as our Chief Executive Officer, and our executive compensation staff to formulate recommendations with respect to specific compensation actions. The compensation and leadership committee makes all final decisions regarding compensation for our executive officers, including base salary levels, target annual cash bonus opportunities, actual cash bonus payments, and long-term incentive opportunities in the form of equity awards that are earned over a multi-year period. The compensation and leadership committee meets on a regularly-scheduled basis and at other times as needed and periodically reviews compensation matters with the entire board of directors.

Annually, the compensation and leadership committee reviews our executive compensation program, including any incentive compensation plans and arrangements, to assess whether our compensation elements, actions and decisions (i) are properly coordinated, (ii) are aligned with our vision, mission, values and corporate goals, (iii) provide appropriate short-term and long-term incentives for our executive officers, (iv) achieve their intended purposes, and (v) are competitive with the compensation of executives in comparable positions at the companies with which we compete for executive talent. Following this assessment, the compensation and leadership committee may make any necessary or appropriate modifications to our existing plans and arrangements or adopt new plans or arrangements.

The compensation and leadership committee also conducts an annual review of our executive compensation strategy to ensure that it is appropriately aligned with our business strategy and achieving our desired objectives. Further, the compensation and leadership committee reviews market trends and changes in competitive compensation practices, as described below.

The factors considered by the compensation and leadership committee in determining the compensation of our executive officers, including our NEOs, include:

•the recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer (except with respect to his own compensation), with the advice of our compensation staff;

41

Table of Contents

•our financial and other objective elements of corporate performance;

•our corporate and individual achievements measured against short-term and long-term performance objectives;

•the individual performance of each executive officer against his or her business objectives;

•a review of the relevant competitive market analysis prepared by its compensation consultant (as described below);

•the expected future contribution of the individual executive officer;

•historical compensation decisions we have made regarding our executive officers; and

•internal pay equity based on the impact on our business and performance.

The compensation and leadership committee does not weigh these factors in any predetermined manner, nor does it apply any formulas in making its decisions. The members of the compensation and leadership committee consider this information in light of their individual experience, knowledge of GoPro, knowledge of each executive officer, knowledge of the competitive market and business judgment in making their decisions regarding executive compensation and our executive compensation program.

As part of this process, the compensation and leadership committee evaluates the performance of our Chief Executive Officer each year and makes all decisions regarding his base salary adjustments, target annual cash bonus opportunities, actual cash bonus payments and long-term incentive opportunities in the form of equity awards that are earned over a multi-year period. Our Chief Executive Officer is not present during any of the deliberations regarding his compensation.

Role of our Chief Executive Officer

Our Chief Executive Officer works closely with the compensation and leadership committee in determining the compensation of our other executive officers, including the other NEOs. Our Chief Executive Officer works with the compensation and leadership committee to recommend the structure of the annual Executive Bonus Plan, to identify and develop corporate and individual performance objectives for the annual Executive Bonus Plan, and to evaluate actual performance against the selected measures.

At the beginning of each year, our Chief Executive Officer reviews the performance of our other executive officers, including the other NEOs, for the previous year, and makes recommendations to the compensation and leadership committee for each element of compensation. The compensation and leadership committee then reviews these recommendations and considers the other factors described above and makes decisions as to the target compensation of each executive officer (other than our Chief Executive Officer), as well as each individual compensation element.

42

Table of Contents

While the compensation and leadership committee will consider our Chief Executive Officer's recommendations, as well as the competitive market analysis prepared by Compensia, these recommendations and market data serve as only two of several factors that the compensation and leadership committee considers in making its decisions with respect to the compensation of our executive officers. No executive officer participates in the determination of the amounts or elements of his or her own compensation.

Role of Compensation Consultant

Pursuant to its charter, the compensation and leadership committee has the authority to engage its own legal counsel and other advisors, including compensation consultants, as determined in its sole discretion, to assist in carrying out its responsibilities. The compensation and leadership committee has the authority to make all determinations regarding the engagement, fees and services of these advisors, and any such advisor reports directly to the compensation and leadership committee.

Accordingly, the compensation and leadership committee has engaged Compensia to provide information, analysis, and other assistance relating to our executive compensation program on an ongoing basis. The nature and scope of the services provided to the compensation and leadership committee by Compensia in 2020 included the following:

•researched, analyzed and developed a proposed compensation peer group;

•provided advice with respect to compensation best practices, regulatory developments and market trends for executive officers and members of our board of directors;

•conducted an analysis of long-term incentive equity practices currently used by our compensation peer group and advised on the adjustment and design of our long-term incentive plans;

•conducted an analysis of the levels of overall compensation and each element of compensation for our executive officers;

•conducted an analysis of the levels of overall compensation and each element of compensation for the members of our board of directors;

•provided adjustment and design advice on our annual Executive Bonus Plan; and

•provided ad hoc advice and support throughout the year.

Representatives of Compensia attend all meetings of the compensation and leadership committee and communicate with the compensation and leadership committee outside of meetings. Compensia reports to the compensation and leadership committee rather than to management, although Compensia may meet with members of management, including our Chief Executive Officer, and members of our executive compensation staff, for purposes of gathering information on proposals that management may make to the compensation and leadership committee.

43

Table of Contents

The compensation and leadership committee has assessed the independence of Compensia taking into account, among other things, the various factors as set forth in Exchange Act Rule 10C-1 and the enhanced independence standards and factors set forth in the applicable Nasdaq listing standards and has concluded that its relationship with Compensia and its respective work on behalf of the compensation and leadership committee has not raised any conflict of interest.

Compensation Peer Group

Given our unique history and business, market competitors and geographical location, the compensation and leadership committee believes that the competitive market for executive talent includes publicly traded technology companies, including Internet-based product and services companies. Accordingly, it develops a compensation peer group to contain a carefully selected cross-section of public companies using factors described below, with revenues and market capitalizations that are similar to ours and that may also compete in a similar market for executive talent.

Each year, in the fourth quarter, the Company reviews its standards and benchmarks for setting executive compensation including for our NEOs, for the upcoming fiscal year. One of the benchmarks we use is the peer group reference. In October 2019, the compensation and leadership committee directed Compensia to formulate a group of peer companies to be used as a reference for market positioning and for assessing competitive market practices in connection with making 2020 executive compensation decisions. Compensia reviewed the pool of U.S.-based publicly traded companies, taking into consideration our industry sector, the size of such companies (based on revenues and market capitalization) relative to our size and growth rate, and the following additional factors:

•the comparability of the company's primary sales channels, including via the Internet;

•the company's consumer products and/or business services focus;

•the comparability of the company's operating history;

•the comparability of the company's organizational complexities and growth attributes;

•the stage of the company's maturity curve (which increases its likelihood of attracting the type of executive talent for whom we compete); and

•the comparability of the company's operational performance (for consistency with our strategy and future performance expectations).

Following this review, Compensia recommended to the compensation and leadership committee a peer group of 18 information technology and consumer-oriented companies, which the compensation and leadership committee subsequently approved. The selected companies had revenues ranging from $668 million to $2.5 billion and market capitalizations ranging from $328 million to $2.4 billion, and similar consumer product and subscription businesses, which were comparable peers at the time of selection. The compensation and leadership committee reviewed the compensation data drawn from the compensation peer group to develop a representation of the 'competitive market' specifically tailored to GoPro with respect to current executive compensation levels and related policies and

44

Table of Contents

practices. The compensation and leadership committee then evaluated how its contemplated compensation actions and decisions compared to the competitive market.

The companies comprising the 2020 compensation peer group are as follows:

Acushnet Holdings	Gogo	NETGEAR	Universal Electronics
Callaway Golf Company	Groupon	Plantronics	Vista Outdoor
Crocs	iRobot	Sonos	YETI Holdings
Fitbit	MoneyGram International	Stitch Fix
Fossil Group	Movado Group	TiVo

As an overarching objective, we seek to design each pay element to align the compensation of our management team with our corporate performance and long-term value creation for our stockholders. That principle has guided the design of both the annual and long-term incentive compensation of our executive officers. The compensation and leadership committee does not believe that it is appropriate to make compensation decisions, whether regarding base salaries or short-term or long-term incentive compensation, solely using benchmarking as guidance. The compensation and leadership committee, however, does believe that information regarding the compensation practices at our compensation peer group is useful in two respects. First, the compensation and leadership committee recognizes that our compensation policies and practices must be competitive in the marketplace. Second, this information is useful in assessing the reasonableness and appropriateness of individual executive compensation elements and of our overall executive compensation packages.

Other Compensation Policies

Compensation Recoupment Policy

We maintain a compensation recoupment policy applicable to cash incentive-based compensation awards paid to our executive officers. In the event of a substantial restatement of financial results filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the policy permits the board, if the board determines appropriate under the circumstances, and the executive officer engaged in fraud or intentional illegal conduct that materially contributed to the restatement, to seek recovery of all or any portion of the cash incentive awards paid or awarded to an executive officer in excess of the awards that would have been paid or awarded based on the restated financial results.

In addition, pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as applicable to all public companies, we may be legally required to seek reimbursement from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer if, as a result of their misconduct, we restate our financial results due to our material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws.

Equity Grant Policy

It is our policy to avoid the granting of equity awards close in time to the release of material non-public information, and we have adopted a written equity grant policy to specify the timing of the effectiveness of our equity awards to avoid such timing. This policy, which we review annually and update as necessary, provides the following guidelines

45

Table of Contents

to be observed by the compensation and leadership committee and our board of directors in administering the grant of equity awards under our equity compensation plans in 2020:

•upon our IPO, when the 2014 Plan became effective, our board of directors delegated to the compensation and leadership committee the express authority to administer our 2014 Plan, including the authority to grant awards under the 2014 Plan;

•our board of directors has delegated to the equity management committee (a committee consisting solely of our Chief Executive Officer) the non-exclusive authority to grant equity awards under the 2014 Plan to employees below the level of executive staff vice president (i.e., employees who are not Section 16 officers and who are not listed as members of our management team in our investor relations website) where the awards fall within standard guidelines approved by the compensation and leadership committee and subject to a limitation on the number of shares of our common stock that may be granted in any year;

•equity awards approved by the management committee will be periodically granted on the 15th day of February, May, August or November;

•all equity awards granted outside the equity management committee guidelines or to our employees at or above the level of vice president who serve on the Company's executive staff must be approved by the compensation and leadership committee; and

•all equity awards to the non-employee members of our board of directors will be granted automatically in accordance with the terms of our Director Compensation Policy.

Under our 2014 Plan, the exercise price of any option to purchase shares of our Class A common stock may not be less than the fair market value (based on the market closing price) of our Class A common stock on the date of grant.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

The Company maintains stock ownership guidelines to better align the interests of our Chief Executive Officer, our President, our Chief Operating Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, our other Section 16 Officers, and our non-employee directors with the interests of our stockholders. Pursuant to the stock ownership guidelines, our Chief Executive Officer is required to achieve ownership of our common stock valued at five times his annual base salary within five years of becoming a Section 16 Officer. Our President, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other Section 16 Officers are required to achieve ownership of our common stock valued at two times their annual base salary within five years of becoming a Section 16 Officer. Our non-employee directors are required to achieve ownership of our common stock valued at five times the amount of the annual retainer payable to directors within five years of joining our board of directors. The ownership levels of our directors, our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Finance Officer and Chief Operating Officer, our Vice President, Global Sales, and our Vice President, Corporate/Business Development, General Counsel and Secretary and Chief Compliance Officer as of March 31, 2021, are set forth in the beneficial ownership table section below, and all of our Section 16 Officers and directors met the requirements of, and were in compliance with, our stock ownership guidelines as of March 31, 2021.

Derivatives Trading and Hedging and Pledging Policies

We have adopted a policy prohibiting our employees, including our executive officers, and members of our board of directors from speculating in our equity securities, including the use of short sales or any equivalent transaction involving our equity securities. In addition, they may not engage in any other hedging, pledging or monetization transactions or trading on margin and other similar or related arrangements, with respect to the securities that they hold. Finally, no employee, including an executive officer, or member of our board of directors may acquire, sell, or trade in any interest or position relating to the future price of our equity securities.

Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plans

From time to time, certain of our directors and executive officers have adopted written plans, known as Rule 10b5-1 plans, in which they have contracted with a broker to buy or sell shares of our common stock on a periodic basis. Under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, a broker executes trades pursuant to parameters established by the director or officer when entering into the plan, without further direction from the director or officer. The director or officer may amend or terminate the plan in some circumstances. The adoption, amendment, termination and certain other actions with respect to Rule 10b5-1 plans must comply with the terms of our Policy on Securities Trades by GoPro, Inc. Personnel and the GoPro, Inc. Requirements for Trading Plans.

Frequency of Say-on-Pay Advisory Vote

At our 2015 annual meeting of stockholders, our stockholders selected, on a non-binding advisory basis, three years as the frequency at which we will hold a non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation to be paid by us to our NEOs. After careful consideration, the compensation and leadership committee and board of directors recommend that future advisory votes on compensation of our NEOs be held on an annual basis, beginning at our 2022 annual meeting. Our board of directors believes holding an annual vote is desirable because it would provide immediate and direct input from our stockholders on our compensation principles and practices as disclosed in the proxy statement every year.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Tax Code generally disallows public companies a tax deduction for federal income tax purposes of remuneration in excess of $1 million paid to certain executive officers.

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted in December 2017 repealed exceptions to the deductibility limit that were previously available for 'qualified performance-based compensation,' including stock option grants, effective for taxable years after December 31, 2017. As a result, any compensation paid to certain of our executive officers in excess of $1 million will be non-deductible unless it qualifies for transition relief afforded to compensation payable pursuant to certain binding arrangements in effect on November 2, 2017, and which have not subsequently been materially modified. Because of ongoing uncertainties in the interpretation and implementation of the changes to Section 162(m), however, including the scope of the transition relief, we can offer no assurance of the deductibility of our compensatory arrangements.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The compensation and leadership committee considers the potential accounting treatment in designing compensation plans and arrangements for our executive officers and other employees. Chief among these is FASB ASC Topic 718, the standard which governs the accounting treatment of stock-based compensation awards.

FASB ASC Topic 718 requires us to recognize the grant date fair value of all share-based payment awards to employees in our financial statements, including grants of options to purchase shares of our Class A common stock as well as RSUs and PSUs that may be settled for shares of our Class A common stock.

FASB ASC Topic 718 also requires us to recognize the compensation cost of our share-based payment awards in our income statement over the period that an employee, including our executive officers, is required to render service in exchange for the award (which, generally, will correspond to the award's vesting schedule).

Compensation-Related Risks

Our board of directors is responsible for the oversight of our risk profile, including compensation-related risks. The compensation and leadership committee monitors our compensation policies and practices as applied to our employees to ensure that these policies and practices do not encourage excessive and unnecessary risk-taking. In October 2020, our compensation and leadership committee conducted a review of our compensation programs, including our executive compensation program, and, based on this review, determined that the level of risk associated with these programs is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Base Salary for Named Executive Officers

In February 2020, the compensation and leadership committee increased Mr. Woodman's base salary to $825,000 effective January 1, 2020. In February 2020, the compensation and leadership committee also reviewed Mr. McGee, Ms. Saltman and Mr. Jahnke's base salaries based on an analysis prepared by Compensia regarding the competitive market, as well as the performance of these NEOs as evaluated by our Chief Executive Officer. At that time, the compensation and leadership committee approved a base salary of $525,000 for Mr. McGee, $425,000 for Ms. Saltman and $400,000 for Mr. Jahnke. In April 2020, in response to the Covid-19 pandemic, Mr. Woodman waived his base salary for the remainder of the year, effective April 14, 2020.

In March 2020, the compensation and leadership committee approved a base salary of $415,000 for Aimée Lapic as a new hire in the role of Senior Vice President, Chief Digital Officer. In August 2020, Ms. Lapic's base salary was increased to $435,000 to reflect an expanded remit to include responsibility for our Global Marketing organization as well as a dotted line for the software engineering organization to further optimize her organization's effectiveness and the benefits of such effectiveness for the Company. The base salaries of our NEOs during 2020 are set forth in the '2020 Summary Compensation Table' below.

Annual Cash Bonuses for Named Executive Officers

In February 2020, the compensation and leadership committee designed cash bonus opportunities for our executive officers, including our NEOs. The compensation and leadership committee exercised its authority to select net

revenue, pre-tax profit/loss and paid subscriptions weighted at 20%, 60% and 20% respectively, as the performance measures for the 2020 annual cash bonus opportunities for our executive officers, and also established the related threshold and target performance levels for each of these measures. The compensation committee has used net revenue and pre-tax profit as bonus plan metrics in prior years and prioritized paid subscriptions in 2020, given the growth in that aspect of our business.

Under the 2020 Executive Bonus Plan, the performance measures involving our financial results could be determined in accordance with GAAP, or such financial results could consist of non-GAAP financial measures, subject to adjustment by the compensation and leadership committee for one-time items or unbudgeted or unexpected items when determining whether the target levels for the performance measures had been met.

Individual payouts of between 0% and 130% of funded bonuses (with the aggregate individual payouts not to exceed the overall funding level of the plan itself) would also reflect individual performance, based on a review of each executive officer's actual performance during the year, as ultimately determined by our compensation and leadership committee.

Target Bonus Opportunities

For 2020, the target annual cash bonus opportunities for each of our NEOs under the 2020 Bonus Plan, expressed as a percentage of his or her annual base salary, were as follows:

Named Executive Officer	Annual Base Salary ($)	Target Bonus Opportunity (as a percentage of base salary) (%)	Target Bonus Opportunity ($)
Nicholas Woodman	825,000	100	825,000
Brian McGee	525,000	75	393,750
Eve Saltman	425,000	50	212,500
Dean Jahnke	400,000	75	300,000
Aimée Lapic(1)	294,615	60	176,769

(1)Ms. Lapic's annual base salary for 2020 is the weighted average of her $415,000 annual base salary from April 20, 2020 to August 16, 2020, and her $435,000 annual base salary from August 17, 2020 to December 31, 2020. Ms. Lapic's annual target bonus opportunity (in dollars) for 2020 reflects her target bonus opportunity (as a percentage of base salary) for 2020 multiplied by her weighted average base salary over 2020.

The target annual cash bonus opportunities of our executive officers, including our NEOs, focused on our short-term financial objectives as reflected in our annual operating plan while, at the same time, allowed for recognition of individual contributions toward achievement of those objectives and the successful execution of each executive's individual roles and responsibilities. Target bonus opportunities differ among NEOs based on market data, position and level.

Corporate Performance Objectives

For purposes of the 2020 Executive Bonus Plan, the compensation and leadership committee selected net revenue, pre-tax profit/loss and subscriptions as the corporate performance measures weighted at 20%, 60% and 20% respectively, each corresponding to a plan funding level of between 25% and 150%, based on our actual performance between threshold, target, and maximum levels. These metrics were chosen to prioritize our focus on top and bottom line growth as well as our growing subscriptions business. The Executive Bonus Plan would have a funding level of 0% for actual performance below the threshold level, with the combined component percentages (either a percentage between 25% and 150% or 0%) determining the plan funding percentage of between 25% and 150% calculated on a straight-line basis between the respective threshold and target percentages. The target levels for the 2020 corporate performance measures were as follows:

The compensation and leadership committee believed these performance measures and weightings were appropriate for our business in 2020, as the Company continued to focus on our top and bottom line while growing our subscription business. The compensation and leadership committee established target performance levels for each measure at levels that it believed to be challenging, but attainable, through the successful execution of our annual operating plan.

The threshold and target levels of achievement for each corporate performance measure and their respective plan funding percentages, with the actual plan funding percentage with respect to each measure to be determined independently were as follows:

Table of Contents

Company Performance Target (Bonus Weighting)	Threshold	Target	Maximum
Net Revenue (1)	Level of Attainment	$1.153 billion	$1.201 billion	$1.237 billion
Component Funding	25%	100%	150%
Pre-Tax Profit/Loss (2)	Level of Attainment	$42.9 million	$66.0 million	$72.6 million

Subscription (3)	Level of Attainment	600K paid subscribers	650K subscribers	700K paid subscribers
Component Funding	25%	100%	150%

(1)Net revenue would be calculated by our finance department and verified by our executive management, subject to certification and final approval by our compensation and leadership committee.

(2)Pre-tax profit/loss would be determined on a non-GAAP basis, which excludes stock compensation expenses, intangible charges, and other one-time charges as appropriate but includes bonus expense (including bonus payments under this 2020 Executive Bonus Plan).

(3)Subscriptions refers to the total number of paid subscribers of GoPro Plus subscription services measured as of the end of the fiscal year.

In the event actual performance results were between the threshold and target performance levels, the plan funding percentage would be calculated on a straight-line basis between the respective threshold and target percentages.

After the overall level of funding under the 2020 Executive Bonus Plan was determined (between 25% and 150%), our compensation and leadership committee could then adjust individual payouts between 0% and 130% of funded levels, provided that the aggregate bonus payouts under the plan could not exceed the overall level of funding of the plan itself.

2020 Performance Results and Bonus Decisions

In February2021, the compensation and leadership committee determined that, based on actual 2020 performance with respect to each corporate performance measure, weighted and combined payout results were at 30% of target bonus opportunities, reflecting 150% achievement of the subscriptions metric, which is weighted at 20%. Revenue and pre-tax profit/loss did not meet threshold attainment. Due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the Company, the compensation and leadership committee declined to fund any portion of the 2020 Executive Bonus Plan and no bonuses were paid to our executives.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

Equity Awards for Named Executive Officers

In 2020, the compensation and leadership committee directed Compensia to review the various long-term incentive vehicles used by our peers and determined that designing a compensation plan using a mix of 25% stock options, 50% RSUs and 25% PSUs would be the best approach for us to attract and retain key talent in our industry and align our executive officers' interests with the long-term interests of our stockholders. The PSU award would vest only if the committee determined that the 'Threshold Profitability Hurdle' in pre-tax profit/loss and the 'Threshold Subscription Hurdle,' each weighted at 50%, for fiscal year 2020. If the committee determined that the Threshold

Profitability Hurdle and Threshold Subscription Hurdle had not been achieved, none of the shares under the PSU award would vest and the PSU award will permanently and immediately cancel in full without consideration.

In February 2020, Messrs. Woodman, McGee, Jahnke and Ms. Saltman were awarded PSUs that may be settled in shares of our Class A common stock. In addition, our NEOs other than our CEO were awarded stock options to purchase shares of our Class A common stock and RSUs that may be settled in shares of our Class A common stock. These awards were based on the competitive market for their respective roles, contributions in 2019 and expected long-term contributions to GoPro.

In May 2020, Ms. Lapic was awarded PSUs and RSUs that may be settled in shares, as well as stock options to purchase shares, of our Class A common stock, all comprising her new hire equity award.

The equity awards granted to our NEOs in 2020 are set forth in the '2020 Summary Compensation Table' and the '2020 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table' below.

2020 Compensation for our Chief Executive Officer

Due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on our company, Nicholas Woodman, our Chief Executive Officer, volunteered to waive his salary beginning April 14, 2020 through the remainder of the year ending December 31, 2020. Accordingly, Mr. Woodman and GoPro entered into a waiver agreement (the 'Waiver Agreement'), which included the foregoing request (the 'Salary Waiver'), and provided that Mr. Woodman's salary would not be increased again without the consent of GoPro, that Mr. Woodman has no entitlement to or expectation of a reversal of the Salary Waiver or other gross-up or true-up of or increase in his salary, and that Mr. Woodman waives any claim to 'good reason' under his employment agreement in connection with the Salary Waiver and the associated adverse effects on the level of Mr. Woodman's participation in certain of our company's benefit plans.

Severance and Change in Control Arrangements

Employment Arrangements

We have entered into written employment offer letters to each of our executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer and our other NEOs. Each of these arrangements was approved on our behalf by our board of directors or the compensation and leadership committee, as applicable. We believe that these arrangements were appropriate to induce these individuals to forego other employment opportunities or leave their current employer for the uncertainty of a demanding position in a new and unfamiliar organization.

52

Table of Contents

In entering into these arrangements, our board of directors or the compensation and leadership committee, as applicable, was aware that it would be necessary to recruit candidates with the requisite experience and skills to manage a growing business in a dynamic and ever-changing environment. Accordingly, it recognized that it would need to develop competitive compensation packages to attract qualified candidates in a highly-competitive labor market. At the same time, our board of directors or the compensation and leadership committee, as applicable, was sensitive to the need to integrate new executive officers into the executive compensation structure that it was seeking to develop, balancing both competitive and internal equity considerations.

Each of these employment arrangements provides for 'at will' employment and sets forth the initial or ongoing compensation arrangements for the NEO, including an initial or ongoing base salary, a target annual cash bonus opportunity, and, in some instances, a recommendation for an equity award in the form of stock options, RSUs, or PSUs.

For a summary of the material terms and conditions of the employment arrangements with each of our NEOs, see 'Employment, Severance and Change in Control Agreements' below.

Change in Control and Severance Policy

In January 2014, we adopted a Change in Control and Severance Policy, with payments and benefits triggered by a qualifying termination of employment in the event of a change in control of the Company applicable to our executive officers, including our NEOs and certain other employees, pursuant to which each individual entered into a written agreement governing such situations. We believe that the severance policy serves several objectives. First, it eliminates the need to negotiate separation payments and benefits on a case-by-case basis. Second, it helps assure an executive officer that his or her severance payments and benefits are comparable to those of other executive officers with similar levels of responsibility and tenure. Third, it incentivizes our executive officers to remain employed and focused on their responsibilities during the pendency or negotiation of a change in control transaction, which we believe would help to preserve our value and the potential benefit to be received by our stockholders in the transaction. Finally, the Change in Control and Severance Policy is easier for us to administer than individually negotiated severance agreements, as it requires less time and expense in negotiation and execution.

The agreements with our executive officers, including each of our NEOs (other than our Chief Executive Officer) require us to provide certain payments and benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment, which includes a termination of employment without cause or where the NEO resigns with good reason, within three months preceding or 12 months following a change in control of our company. The receipt of these payments and benefits is contingent upon the NEO's execution, delivery, and non-revocation of a release and waiver of claims satisfactory to us following the NEO's separation from service. In addition, for six months following the termination of employment, and as a condition to the payments and benefits, the NEO must cooperate with any transition efforts that we request and must not disparage us, or our directors, officers or employees. As noted in the following paragraph, Mr. Woodman, our Chief Executive Officer, is no longer a party to these agreements.

We entered into an employment letter with Mr. Woodman in June 2014, the terms of which supersede in their entirety the change in control and severance agreement he executed in January 2014. This employment letter sets

forth the post-employment compensation arrangements for Mr. Woodman in the event of a qualifying termination of employment in connection with a change in control of GoPro.

For descriptions of the change in control severance arrangements with each of our NEOs, including an estimate of the amount payable upon a qualifying termination of employment, see 'Arrangements with Our Named Executive Officers' below.

Executive Severance Policy

Subject to executing a written agreement setting forth the terms and conditions of the Executive Severance Policy, senior leadership team members other than our Chief Executive Officer, as well as such other employees as our board or the compensation and leadership committee may designate, receive benefits under our Executive Severance Policy. The compensation and leadership committee designated the following NEOs as participants in the Executive Severance Policy: Messrs. McGee and, Jahnke and Mses. Saltman and Lapic.

Under the Executive Severance Policy, if a participant undergoes a qualifying termination of employment (as defined in the Executive Severance Policy) and executes an irrevocable general release of claims in favor of GoPro within 60 days following such qualifying termination of employment, we will provide the participant the following severance payments and benefits (in addition to compensation and benefits earned by the participant but not yet paid through the termination date):

•Cash Severance. We will pay the participant a cash lump sum equal to 12 months of the participant's base salary (less applicable deductions and withholding), as in effect immediately prior to the participant's termination by GoPro or, in the case of voluntary termination by the participant with good reason (as defined in the policy), immediately prior to the occurrence of the event constituting good reason.

•COBRA Payments. Subject to the participant timely electing coverage in accordance with the requirements of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended ('COBRA'), we will continue to pay the employer portions of such insurance premiums for the participant and/or his or her eligible dependents, as applicable, for up to 12 months following the participant's termination. Such COBRA subsidies will cease, however, if a participant becomes eligible for comparable group medical, dental and/or vision insurance coverage under the plan(s) of a subsequent employer, or if the participant otherwise ceases to be eligible to receive COBRA coverage under our plan(s), before the end of the aforementioned 12-month period.

If the participant is or becomes eligible to receive any other cash severance payments and benefits from us comparable to those described in the 'Cash Severance' paragraph above, including under a 'double-trigger' arrangement in connection with a change in control of GoPro (such as under our Change in Control and Severance Policy), the participant will receive the greater of the payments and benefits under the Executive Severance Policy or under the other arrangement (such as the Change in Control and Severance Policy).

54

Table of Contents

Finally, participants in the Executive Severance Policy are required to agree that, during the six-month period following their cessation of employment, they will cooperate with us in every reasonable respect, use their best efforts to assist us with the transition of their duties to their successors and not in any way or by any means disparage GoPro, the members of our board or our officers and employees.

For descriptions of the severance arrangements with each of our NEOs, including an estimate of the amount payable upon a qualifying termination of employment, see 'Arrangements with Our Named Executive Officers' below.

2021 Base Salary for Named Executive Officers

In February 2021, the compensation and leadership committee reinstated and increased Mr. Woodman's base salary to $850,000 effective January 1, 2021. The compensation and leadership committee also reviewed Mr. McGee, Ms. Saltman, Mr. Jahnke, and Ms. Lapic's base salaries based on an analysis prepared by Compensia regarding the competitive market, as well as the performance of these NEO's as evaluated by our Chief Executive Officer. At that time, the compensation and leadership committee approved a base salary of $575,000 for Mr. McGee, $438,000 for Ms. Saltman, $412,000 for Mr. Jahnke, and $457,000 for Ms. Lapic.

(1) The amounts reported in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the RSUs or PSUs, as applicable, made to each NEO in 2020, 2019 and 2018 computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 and excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. For all three years, PSUs were included in in the mix of equity awards granted to our NEOs and are included in the 'Stock Awards' column in the table above, along with time-based RSUs. The performance metrics selected for the PSUs in each year were based solely on internal Company goals for a single fiscal year (FY 2018 (revenue), FY 2019 (revenue) and FY 2020 (revenue, profitability and subscriptions) and, as such, the PSUs were determined to be performance awards under FASB ASC Topic 718.

The grant date fair value for both time-based RSU and PSU awards was determined to be equal to the closing price of our Class A common stock on the date of grant.

The number of PSUs that ultimately vest, if any, depends on whether the Company achieves certain levels of performance with respect to the designated performance measures. The grant date fair values of the PSUs included in this column are based on payouts at target, which we determined, in accordance with the applicable stock-based compensation accounting rules, to be the probable levels of achievement of the performance goals related to those awards at the time of grant. The table below shows the grant date fair value of the PSUs granted during fiscal 2020, assuming that: (i) our performance with respect to those performance measures will be at target levels (i.e., probable performance); and (ii) our performance with respect to those performance measures will be at levels that would result in a maximum payout.

Note that the amounts reported in this column and the table, below, reflect the accounting cost for these RSUs or PSUs, as applicable, and do not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by the NEO.

Name	Fiscal Year of Grant	Grant Date Fair Value (Target/Probable Performance) ($)	Grant Date Fair Value (Maximum Performance) ($)
Nicholas Woodman	2020	2,934,573	4,401,859

The assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the option awards reported in the Option Awards column are set forth in Note 6 to the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 12, 2021. Note that the amounts reported in this column reflect the accounting cost for these options and do not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by the NEO.

(3)The amounts reported in this column represent the NEO's annual cash bonus awards, which for 2019 and 2018, we awarded under the 2019 Executive Bonus Plan and the 2018 Executive Bonus Plan respectively, based on the compensation and leadership committee's determination of individual and overall company performance. No bonus was paid for 2020 under the 2020 Executive Bonus Plan.

(1)As set forth under the 2020 Executive Bonus Plan, the threshold amount represents corporate financial performance of (i) achievement of net revenue at $1.153 billion, (ii) achievement of pre-tax profit/loss of $42.89 million and (iii) achievement of GoPro Plus paid subscribers of 600 thousand, which, together, would result in an overall plan funding level of 25% (and individual bonus payouts at 25% of annual target bonus opportunities for 2020, subject to adjustment by the compensation and leadership committee).

(2)As set forth under the 2020 Executive Bonus Plan, the maximum amount represents corporate financial performance of (i) achievement of net revenue at $1.238 billion, (ii) achievement of pre-tax profit/loss of $72.58 million and (iii) achievement of GoPro Plus paid subscribers of 700 thousand, which, together, would result in an overall plan funding level of 150% (and individual bonus payouts at 150% of annual target bonus opportunities for 2020, subject to adjustment by the compensation and leadership committee).

(3)The amounts in these columns represent the threshold, target, and maximum number of shares that may be earned and vest with respect to performance-based restricted stock units granted during fiscal 2020.

(4)The amounts reported in this column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of each award computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The grant date fair value for PSU awards was computed based on achievement of the PSU awards' performance at 100% of the target number of shares granted, which was the probable outcome of the performance conditions on the grant date. The grant date fair value for both RSUs and PSUs was determined to be equal to the closing price of our Class A common stock on date of grant. The assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the option awards reported in the Option Awards column are set forth in Note 6 to the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC

on February 12, 2021. Note that the amounts reported in this column reflect the accounting cost for these awards and do not correspond to the actual economic value that may be received by the NEO.

(5)The PSUs granted on February 18, 2020, and May 15, 2020, are scheduled to vest between February 15, 2021, and February 15, 2023, subject to the satisfaction of the defined performance conditions for the performance period beginning on January 1, 2020, and ending on December 31, 2020, as determined by the committee.

The determination of the number of PSUs granted which are ultimately deemed to have been earned will be based on two equally-weighted metrics, the Profitability Attainment Metric (50% of the PSUs granted) and the Subscription Attainment Metric (50% of the PSUs granted). If the committee determines both the Threshold Profitability Hurdle and the Threshold Subscription Hurdle had not been achieved, none of the shares under the PSU awards will vest and all PSUs subject to the award will immediately be forfeited in their entirety. If the Threshold Hurdle or higher of one or both metrics is determined by the committee to have been achieved the number of PSUs earned will be determined according to the Hurdle Schedule and the earned PSUs subject to that Hurdle will then be subject to the time-based vesting schedule described below.

% PSUs Granted that are Earned
Performance Metric	Threshold	Target	Maximum
50% Profitability Attainment Hurdle	25%	100%	150%
50% Subscription Attainment Hurdle	25%	100%	150%

If the achievement against either of the Hurdles falls between the Threshold and the Target or between the Target and the Maximum, the committee will determine the number of PSUs subject to that metric which will be deemed to have been earned and become subject to the time-based vesting.

After the number of earned PSUs has been determined, 1/3rd of the earned PSUs will vest on the later of (x) February 15, 2021, or (y) the date when the committee determines the Hurdle(s) achieved, and the remaining earned PSUs will vest quarterly thereafter as to 1/12th of the earned PSUs on the 15th of each of February, May, August and November, subject to the participant's continued service to the Company through each vesting date. Earned but unvested PSUs may accelerate and become vested subject to the terms of the change in control and severance agreement between the participant and the Company.

(6) One-fourth of the total RSUs granted vested on February 15, 2021, and an additional 1/4th will vest annually thereafter until the units are fully vested, subject to the participant's continued service to the Company through each vesting date. Unvested RSUs may accelerate and become vested subject to the terms of the change in control and severance agreement between the participant and the Company.

(7) One-fourth of the total options granted vested on February 15, 2021, and an additional 1/48th will vest monthly thereafter until the options are fully vested, subject to the participant's continued service to the Company through each vesting date. Unvested options may accelerate and become vested and exercisable subject to the terms of the change in control and severance agreement between the participant and the Company.

(8)Ms. Lapic's estimated future payouts under the 2020 Executive Bonus Plan reflect her weighted-average base salary over 2020.

(9)One-fourth of the total RSUs granted will vest on May 15, 2021, and an additional 1/4th will vest annually thereafter until the units are fully vested, subject to the participant's continued service to the Company through each vesting date. Unvested RSUs may accelerate and become vested subject to the terms of the change in control and severance agreement between the participant and the Company.

(10)One-fourth of the total options granted will vest on May 15, 2021, and an additional 1/48th will vest monthly thereafter until the options are fully vested, subject to the participant's continued service to the Company through each vesting date. Unvested options may accelerate and become vested and exercisable subject to the terms of the change in control and severance agreement between the participant and the Company.

For options granted pre-IPO, market value of our common stock was determined by our board of directors on the date of grant. For options granted after our IPO, market value is the closing price of our Class A common stock on the date of grant. See Note 6 to the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 12, 2021, for a discussion of the valuation of our Class A common stock.

(2)The amounts in these columns represent shares of restricted stock units with service-based vesting requirements, including PSUs for which the performance conditions have been satisfied but are subject to additional time-based service requirements. The PSUs for which the performance conditions have been satisfied continue to be denoted as 'PSUs' in these columns for reference. The share numbers and values for the 2019 PSUs for which the performance conditions have been met reflect a downward adjustment to 55% of the original target shares based on the goal metric certification by the compensation and leadership committee on February 18, 2020. The share numbers and values for the 2020 PSUs for which the performance conditions have been met reflect a downward adjustment to 75% of the original target shares based on the goal metric certification by the compensation and leadership committee on February 10, 2021.

Change in Control Arrangements with our Named Executive Officers

Arrangements with Mr. Woodman

Under his employment letter dated June 2, 2014, Mr. Woodman is eligible to receive severance payments and benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment, including a termination of employment in connection with a change in control of our company.

If Mr. Woodman's employment is terminated by us for any reason other than cause or he resigns for good reason prior to a change in control of GoPro, he will be eligible to receive:

•a single lump sum payment equal to the sum of 12 months of his then-current base salary and target bonus (assuming a 150% achievement threshold);

•an additional payment equal to the pro-rata portion of his actual target bonus for the year of his termination of employment; and

•continuation of COBRA benefits for 12 months following his termination of employment (or if applicable law requires otherwise, a lump sum payment equal to that amount).

If Mr. Woodman's employment is terminated by us for any reason other than cause or he resigns for good reason within 24 months following a change in control of GoPro, he will be eligible to receive:

•a single lump sum payment equal to the sum of 24 months of his then-current base salary and target bonus (assuming a 150% achievement threshold);

•an additional payment equal to the pro-rata portion of his actual target bonus for the year of his termination of employment;

61

Table of Contents

•full accelerated vesting of all the shares of our common stock subject to his then-outstanding and unvested equity awards, if any; and

•continuation of benefits under COBRA for 18 months following his termination of employment (or if applicable law requires otherwise, a lump sum payment equal to that amount).

These payments and benefits are conditioned on Mr. Woodman's execution and delivery of an irrevocable release and waiver of claims to us within the 60 days following his termination of employment.

Further, if we undergo a change in control, any payments that would be 'parachute payments' within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code will be reduced so that Mr. Woodman retains, on an after-tax basis, the greatest amount of these payments.

In connection with Mr. Woodman's Salary Waiver, we entered into a Waiver Agreement with Mr. Woodman, as discussed above under '2020 Compensation for our Chief Executive Officer.'

Arrangements with Mr. McGee

Under his employment letter dated September 2015, Mr. McGee is eligible to receive severance payments and benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment, including a termination of employment in connection with a change in control of our company.

Pursuant to his change in control and severance agreement dated September 28, 2015, if Mr. McGee's employment is terminated by us for any reason other than for cause or he voluntarily resigns for good reason within the three-month period preceding or the 12-month period following a change in control of GoPro, he will be eligible to receive:

•12 months of his then-current base salary;

•100% of his target annual bonus;

•$3,000 per month for 12 months in lieu of employee benefits; and

•all of the shares of our common stock subject to each then-outstanding and unvested equity award held by Mr. McGee, including awards that would otherwise only vest upon satisfaction of performance criteria, will accelerate and become vested and exercisable in full immediately prior to his separation from service.

Further, if we undergo a change in control, any payments that would be 'parachute payments' within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code will be reduced so that Mr. McGee retains, on an after-tax basis, the greatest amount of these payments.

Among other things, this letter provided that, subject to the approval of the board of directors, Ms. Saltman would be granted an option to purchase 196,078 shares of our Class A common stock, which would vest as to 25% of the shares subject to the option on the first anniversary of her commencement of employment and thereafter in equal monthly installments over 36 months thereafter, subject to her continuous employment as of each vesting date. The letter also provided that, subject to the approval of the board of directors, Ms. Saltman would be granted 89,469 RSUs to vest in four equal annual installments of 25%, each measured from the date of grant, subject to her continuous service as of each vesting date.

Under her change in control and severance agreement dated March 29, 2018, in the event that we terminate her employment for any reason other than cause or she voluntarily resigns her employment for good reason within the three-month period preceding or the 12-month period following a change in control of GoPro, Ms. Saltman would be eligible to receive severance payments and benefits as follows:

Arrangements with Ms. Lapic

In April 2020, we entered into an employment offer letter with Ms. Lapic. Among other things, this letter provided that, subject to the approval of the board of directors, Ms. Lapic would be granted an award of $1,300,000 USD of equity split into 50% RSUs, 25% Stock Options and 25% Performance Share Units. Subject to the approval of the board of directors, Ms. Lapic would be granted an option to purchase 232,143 shares of our Class A common stock, which would vest as to 25% of the shares subject to the option on the first anniversary of her commencement of employment and thereafter in equal monthly installments over 36 months thereafter, subject to her continuous employment as of each vesting date. The letter also provided that, subject to the approval of the board of directors, Ms. Lapic would be granted 229,682 RSUs to vest in four equal annual installments of 25%, each measured from the date of grant, subject to her continuous service as of each vesting date. The letter also provided that, subject to the approval of the board of directors, Ms. Lapic would be granted 114,841 PSUs to vest only if the defined 'Performance Metric' is achieved per Fiscal 2020 PSU goals. PSUs earned pursuant to the attainment of the Performance Metrics would vest as follows: 1/3rd of the PSUs earned would vest on the later of i) February 15, 2021 and ii) the date the Performance Metrics are certified as achieved, and 1/12th of the PSUs earned would vest quarterly thereafter, subject to her continuous employment as of each vesting date. PSUs that vest would be settled in the Company's Class A common stock as soon as practicable after vesting.

Under her change in control and severance agreement dated April 6, 2020, in the event that we terminate her employment for any reason other than cause or she voluntarily resigns her employment for good reason within the three-month period preceding or the 12-month period following a change in control of GoPro, Ms. Lapic would be eligible to receive severance payments and benefits as follows:

Estimated Payments and Benefits as of December 31, 2020

The following table sets forth the estimated payments and benefits that would be received by each of the NEOs upon a change in control of GoPro, upon a termination of employment without cause or following a resignation for good reason under our Executive Severance Policy, or in the event of a termination of employment without cause or following a resignation for good reason in connection with a change in control in GoPro under our Change in Control and Severance Policy. This table reflects amounts payable to each NEO assuming that his or her employment was terminated on December 31, 2020, and the change in control of the Company also occurred on that date. The closing market price per share of our Class A common stock on December 31, 2020, was $8.28.

(1)The value of the accelerated vesting of outstanding and unvested equity awards has been calculated based on the closing market price of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq on December 31, 2020, which was $8.28 per share, less, if applicable, the exercise price of each outstanding and unvested stock option. PSUs granted in 2019 subject to accelerated vesting upon a qualifying termination of 100% of eligible unvested shares reflect a downward adjustment to 55% of the original target shares based on the goal metric certification by the compensation and leadership committee on February 18, 2020. PSUs granted in 2020 are subject to accelerated vesting upon a qualifying termination of 100% of eligible unvested shares reflect a downward adjustment to 75% of the original target shares based on the goal metric certification by the compensation and leadership committee on February 10, 2021.

(2)This amount is cost of COBRA continuation based on Mr. Woodman's 2020 medical, dental and vision benefits costs.

CEO Pay Ratio

The annual total compensation of Mr. Woodman for 2020, as reported in the 2020 Summary Compensation Table, was $3,175,695. The annual total compensation of our median employee for 2020 was $114,536. Based on this information, for 2020, the ratio of the annual total compensation of Mr. Woodman to that of our median employee was approximately 27.7 to 1.

Calculation Methodology

We identified the employee with compensation at the median of the compensation of all our employees (the 'median employee') by considering our employee population as of December 31, 2020 (the 'employee

65

Table of Contents

population determination date'). Due to a change in our employee population and employee compensation arrangements since December 31, 2018 we determined that it was necessary to identify a new median employee.

We considered all individuals (excluding our Chief Executive Officer) who were employed by us on a worldwide basis (including our consolidated subsidiaries) on the employee population determination date, whether employed on a full-time, part-time, seasonal or temporary basis, including employees on a partial-year leave of absence. The compensation measure used for purposes of identifying the median employee was based on earned salary or wages in 2020. In the case of foreign employees, total direct compensation also included '13th month pay' and any holiday allowance that was statutorily required to be paid as we view such compensation to be akin to earned salary or wages, and all amounts were converted to U.S. dollars using exchange rates in effect on the employee population determination date, without making any cost of living adjustments for employees outside of the United States. We also annualized the cash compensation of any permanent employees that were not employed by us for all of 2020. We believe our methodology represents a consistently applied compensation measure that strikes a balance in terms of administrative burden while consistently treating the primary compensation components for our worldwide employee population.

After identifying our median employee, in calculating the annual total compensation of such employee, we used the same methodology we use to calculate the amount reported for our NEOs in the 'Total' column of the 2020 Summary Compensation Table.

'Householding' - Stockholders Sharing the Same Last Name and Address

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (such as brokers) to implement a delivery procedure called 'householding.' Under this procedure, multiple stockholders who reside at the same address may receive a single copy of our Annual Report and proxy materials, including the Notice of Internet Availability, unless the affected stockholder has provided contrary instructions. This procedure reduces printing costs and postage fees and helps protect the environment as well.

This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are GoPro stockholders will be 'householding' our Annual Report and proxy materials, including the Notice of Internet Availability. A single Notice of Internet Availability and, if applicable, a single set of Annual Report and other proxy materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an

address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that it will be 'householding' communications to your address, 'householding' will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. Stockholders may revoke their consent at any time by contacting Broadridge Financial Solutions by calling 1-866-540-7095 or writing to: Broadridge House Holding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717.

Upon written or oral request, GoPro will promptly deliver a separate copy of the Notice of Internet Availability and, if applicable, Annual Report and other proxy materials to any stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of any of those documents was delivered. To receive a separate copy of the Notice of Internet Availability and, if applicable, Annual Report and other proxy materials, you may write GoPro's Investor Relations department at 3025 Clearview Way, San Mateo, California 94402, Attn: Investor Relations.

Any stockholders who share the same address and currently receive multiple copies of GoPro's Notice of Internet Availability or Annual Report and other proxy materials who wish to receive only one copy in the future can contact their bank, broker or other holder of record to request information about householding or GoPro's Investor Relations department at the address or telephone number listed above.

APPENDIX A

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measure

We report diluted net income (loss) per share in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and on a non-GAAP basis. Additionally, we report non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. We use non-GAAP financial measures to help us understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to prepare and approve our annual budget, and to develop short-term and long-term operational plans. Our management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, the measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financials, provide useful information to investors by facilitating:

•the comparability of our on-going operating results over the periods presented;

•the ability to identify trends in our underlying business; and

•the comparison of our operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of other public companies that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

•adjusted EBITDA does not reflect tax payments that reduce cash available to us;

•adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization and, although these are non-cash charges, the property and equipment being depreciated and amortized often will have to be replaced in the future, and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements;

•adjusted EBITDA excludes the amortization of point of purchase (POP) display assets because it is a non-cash charge, and is treated similarly to depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of acquired intangible assets;

•adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income (loss) exclude the impairment of intangible assets because it is a non-cash charge that is inconsistent in amount and frequency;

•adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income (loss) exclude restructuring and other related costs which primarily include severance-related costs, stock-based compensation expenses, facilities consolidation charges recorded in connection with restructuring actions announced in the fourth quarter of 2016, first quarter of 2017, first quarter of 2018 and second quarter of 2020, including right-of-use asset impairment charges, and the related ongoing operating lease cost of those facilities recorded under ASC 842, Leases. These expenses do not reflect expected future operating expenses and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of current operating performance or comparisons to the operating performance in other periods;

•adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income (loss) exclude stock-based compensation expense related to equity awards granted primarily to our workforce. We exclude stock-based compensation expense because we believe that the non-GAAP financial measures excluding this item provide meaningful supplemental information regarding operational performance. In particular, we note that companies calculate stock-based compensation expense for the

A- 1

Table of Contents

variety of award types that they employ using different valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions. These non-cash charges are not factored into our internal evaluation of net income (loss) as we believe their inclusion would hinder our ability to assess core operational performance;

•adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP net income (loss) exclude the loss on extinguishment of debt because it is not reflective of ongoing operating results in the period, and the frequency and amount of such losses are inconsistent;

•non-GAAP net income (loss) excludes acquisition-related costs including the amortization of acquired intangible assets (primarily consisting of acquired technology), the impairment of acquired intangible assets (if applicable), as well as third-party transaction costs incurred for legal and other professional services. These costs are not factored into our evaluation of potential acquisitions, or of our performance after completion of the acquisitions, because these costs are not related to our core operating performance or reflective of ongoing operating results in the period, and the frequency and amount of such costs are inconsistent and vary significantly based on the timing and magnitude of our acquisition transactions and the maturities of the businesses being acquired. Although we exclude the amortization of acquired intangible assets from our non-GAAP net income (loss), management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to revenue generation;

•non-GAAP net income (loss) excludes non-cash interest expense. In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes in April 2017 and November 2020, we are required to recognize non-cash interest expense in accordance with the authoritative accounting guidance for convertible debt that may be settled in cash;

•non-GAAP net income (loss) excludes a gain on the sale and license of intellectual property. This gain is not related to our core operating performance or reflective of ongoing operating results in the period, and the frequency and amount of such gains are inconsistent;

•non-GAAP net income (loss) includes income tax adjustments. We utilize a cash-based non-GAAP tax expense approach (based upon expected annual cash payments for income taxes) for evaluating operating performance as well as for planning and forecasting purposes. This non-GAAP tax approach eliminates the effects of period specific items, which can vary in size and frequency and does not necessarily reflect our long-term operations. Historically, we computed a non-GAAP tax rate based on non-GAAP pre-tax income on a quarterly basis, which considered the income tax effects of the adjustments above; and

•other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
