    Item 7.01.

    Regulation FD Disclosure.

    On June 2, 2025, Rivian Automotive, Inc. (“Rivian”) announced that Rivian Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”), Rivian, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Rivian LLC”) and Rivian Automotive, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Rivian Automotive” and, together with Holdings and Rivian LLC, the “Co-Issuers” and each a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rivian) intend to offer, subject to market and other customary conditions, $1,250 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured green notes due 2031 (the “Notes”) in a private offering (the “Notes Offering”) to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The notes are expected to be guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that also guarantee the Co-Issuers’ senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”). The notes and the guarantees are expected to be secured on a first-priority basis by substantially all assets of the Co-Issuers and the guarantors, other than ABL Priority Collateral (as defined below), if and when the previously announced loan facility with the Department of Energy is funded, on a first-priority basis by substantially all assets of Rivian New Horizon, LLC, and on a second-priority basis by the inventory, receivables, certain deposit accounts and certain related assets (which exclude intellectual property) which secure the ABL Facility on a first-priority basis (the “ABL Priority Collateral”), in each case subject to certain excluded assets and permitted liens. Rivian expects to use the net proceeds from the offering of the notes, together with cash on hand, to redeem in full the $1,250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Co-Issuers’ outstanding floating rate senior secured notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and pay related fees and expenses. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute a notice of redemption with respect to the 2026 Notes.

    On June 2, 2025, Rivian issued a press release announcing the commencement of the Notes Offering. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

    Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

    This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, without limitation, statements regarding statements regarding the notes offering and the expected use of proceeds therefrom, which statements are based on current expectations, forecasts, and assumptions and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations discussed in such statements, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “will,” “expects,” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements use these words or expressions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. These forward-looking statements are only predictions and may differ materially from actual results due to a variety of factors. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, our ability to complete the offering on favorable terms, if at all, general market, political, economic and business conditions which might affect the offering and the important factors discussed in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in Rivian’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and its other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Rivian may not consummate the offering described in this Current Report on Form 8-K and, if the offering is consummated, cannot provide any assurances regarding its ability to effectively apply the net proceeds as described above. The forward-looking statements included in this Current Report on Form 8-K speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, and Rivian does not undertake to update the statements included in this Current Report on Form 8-K for subsequent developments, except as may be required by law.
