Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On October 7, 2025, Penguin Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), issued a press release and will hold a conference call announcing its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2025. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Form 8-K”) and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Company refers to non-GAAP financial information in both the press release and on the conference call. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is contained in the attached press release.
The information furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of this Form 8-K, including the information contained in Exhibit 99.1 of this Form 8-K, 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 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On October 6, 2025, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors approved a $75 million stock repurchase authorization, under which the Company may repurchase shares of its outstanding common stock from time to time through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise, with the amount and timing of repurchases to be determined at the Company’s discretion, depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases will be structured to occur in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, including within the pricing and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act. The Company may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of its shares under this authorization. The stock repurchase authorization has no expiration date, may be suspended or terminated by the Audit Committee at any time and does not obligate the Company to acquire any amount of common stock.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Exchange Act, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are not historical in nature, that are predictive or that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the amount, timing and other features of the Company’s stock repurchase authorization. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements often use words such as “anticipate,” “target,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “goal,” “believe,” “could,” and other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements provide the Company’s current expectations or forecasts of future events, circumstances, results or aspirations and are subject to a number of significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside of the Company’s control, including but not limited to the risks, uncertainties and factors described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 30, 2024 filed prior to the U.S. redomiciliation by the Company’s predecessor Penguin Solutions, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company, as updated by the risk factors contained in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in the Company’s other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Such risks, uncertainties and factors could cause the Company’s actual results to be materially different from such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements that the Company makes in this Form 8-K speak only as of the date of this Form 8-K. Except as required by law, the Company does not undertake to update the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 8-K to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that may arise after the date that the forward-looking statements were made.
