Other Events.

On February 26, 2024, the previously announced sale in an underwritten offering (the “Offering”) of 10,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”) of Symbotic Inc. (the “Company”), consisting of 5,000,000 Shares sold by the Company and 5,000,000 Shares sold by the selling securityholders (the “Selling Securityholders”) named in the Underwriting Agreement (as defined below), was completed. The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by the Company, were approximately $197 million. The Company plans to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate purposes. The Company did not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of Shares by the Selling Securityholders.

In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Symbotic Holdings LLC, the Selling Securityholders and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, as representative of the underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,500,000 Shares. The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants and includes the terms and conditions for the sale of the Shares by the Company and the Selling Securityholders to the Underwriters, indemnification and contribution obligations and other terms and conditions customary in agreements of this type. A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

The Offering was made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 1, 2023 (File No. 333-273383), a base prospectus, dated August 2, 2023, included as part of the Registration Statement, and a prospectus supplement, dated February 21, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. A copy of the opinion of Sullivan & Cromwell LLP relating to the issuance of the Class A common stock in the Offering is attached hereto as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. Exhibits 1.1 and 5.1 are hereby incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement.
