Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On April 30, 2025, Complete Solaria, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing selected preliminary unaudited financial results for Q1 2025 (the preliminary unaudited financial results contained in such press release, the “Preliminary Unaudited Results”) and certain selected fiscal 2024 results (together with the Preliminary Unaudited Results, collectively, the “Financial Results”).
The full text of the press release for the Financial Results is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
The information in this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, 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 into any filing made by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
The information furnished on Exhibit 99.1 is incorporated by reference under this Item 7.01 as if fully set forth herein.
The information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing made by the Company under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Preliminary and Unaudited Financial Results
The Preliminary Unaudited Results are preliminary and subject to our Q1 2025 closing, accounting and reporting processes. As a result, the Preliminary Unaudited Results may change in connection with the finalization of our closing, accounting and reporting processes, and the financial statements for Q1 2025 may not represent the actual financial results for such quarter. In addition, the Financial Results are not a comprehensive statement of our financial results for Q1 2025 or fiscal 2024, should not be viewed as a substitute for full, audited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and are not necessarily indicative of our results for any future period.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to providing financial measurements based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the Financial Results include certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP (“non-GAAP”). Management of the Company believes the non-GAAP financial measures included in the Financial Results, in addition to GAAP financial measures, are useful measures of operating performance because the non-GAAP financial measures do not include the impact of items that management does not consider indicative of the Company’s operating performance (as further detailed in the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1), which facilitates the analysis of the Company’s core operating results across reporting periods. Such non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of the Company’s GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, the Company’s financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. Descriptions of and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures used in the press released furnished as Exhibit 99.1 are included in such exhibit and related footnotes. Investors should carefully consider the GAAP results presented in the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1, as well as our preliminary non-GAAP information and the reconciliations between these presentations included in the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1, to more fully understand the Company’s business. Non-GAAP financial measures are reported in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Forward Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K and the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act about the Company and its industry that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements generally relate to future events or the Company’s future financial or operating performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “will,” “goal,” “prioritize,” “plan,” “target,” “expect,” “focus,” “forecast,” “look forward,” “opportunity,” “believe,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” and “pursue” or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 include, without limitation, the Preliminary Unaudited Results, the Company’s expectations regarding positive non-GAAP operating profit, expectations and plans relating to headcount targets, cost control efforts, the Company’s expectations regarding its ability to attract and retain key employees and talent (including key industry players), and the Company’s expectations with respect to when it achieves breakeven operating income and positive operating income. Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, the Company’s ability to implement further headcount reductions and cost controls, the Company’s ability to integrate and operate the combined business with the SunPower assets, the Company’s ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of the SunPower acquisition, global market conditions, the Company’s ability to attract and retain key employees and talent (including key industry players), any adjustments, changes or revisions to the Company’s financial results arising from its financial closing, accounting and reporting procedures, and other risks and uncertainties applicable to the Company’s business. For additional information on these risks and uncertainties and other potential factors that could affect the Company’s business and financial results or cause actual results to differ from the results predicted, readers should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 1, 2024, the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the 2024 fiscal year that will be filed by the Company with the SEC, the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, and other documents that the Company has filed with, or will file with, the SEC. Such filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K and the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and the Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
