    Explanatory Note

     

    On December 9, 2025, AeroVironment, Inc. (the “Company”) furnished a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Report”) to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) announcing its financial results for its second quarter ended November 1, 2025, which Original Report included a “presentation regarding AeroVironment Inc’s second quarter fiscal 2026 financial results dated December 9, 2025” (the “Original Presentation”) as Exhibit 99.2.

     

    This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Original Report to (i) furnish a revised version of the Original Presentation (the “Revised Presentation”) to correct the reported amount of unfunded backlog in the Original Presentation and to include a slide with the Revised Presentation to detail the change in unfunded backlog from the end of the Company’s first fiscal quarter ended August 2, 2025 to the end of its second fiscal quarter ended November 1, 2025, and (ii) for ease of reference, to provide an updated statement regarding the Company’s unfunded backlog under Item 8.01. Total unfunded backlog as of November 1, 2025, as disclosed on slides 3, 4 and 17 of the Original Presentation and on page 39 of the Company’s Quarterly Report on 10-Q filed December 10, 2025 (“Q2 10-Q”), was $3.0 billion, rather than $2.8 billion as previously reported in the Original Presentation and Q2 10-Q. Other than correcting this error, including the clarifying disclosure in Item 8.01, and including the additional slide in the Revised Presentation, all other information included in the Original Report is unchanged. The Revised Presentation is furnished with this Amendment as Exhibit 99.2 hereto.

Various factors could affect future results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Some of those factors are identified in the exhibits, and in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     

    The information in Items 2.02 and 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, is furnished pursuant to Items 2.02 and 7.01 and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing of AeroVironment, Inc. under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
