Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On October 21, 2025, GSI Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with a certain institutional investor (the “Purchaser”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, in a registered direct offering (the “Registered Direct Offering”) an aggregate of (i) 1,508,462 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) at a price of $10.00 per Share and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,491,538 shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants” and, collectively with the Shares, the “Offered Securities”) at a price of $9.99 per Pre-Funded Warrant. Each of the Pre-Funded Warrants is exercisable for one share of Common Stock at the exercise price of $0.01 per Pre-Funded Warrant Share, immediately exercisable, and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants issued in the Registered Direct Offering are exercised in full. The Purchaser’s ability to exercise its Pre-Funded Warrants in exchange for shares of Common Stock is subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations set forth therein. The gross proceeds to the Company from the Registered Direct Offering are expected to be approximately $50 million, before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Registered Direct Offering is expected to close on October 22, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Registered Direct Offering, together with its existing cash and cash equivalents, for general corporate purposes, including development of the Company’s APU product line. The Purchase Agreement contains representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company, including for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made only for the purposes of such agreement and as of the specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, until 60 days following the closing date of the Registered Direct Offering, the Company has agreed not to (i) issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents or (ii) file any registration statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, other than (a) the prospectus supplement in connection with this Registered Direct Offering, (b) any necessary filing for an Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) under applicable law, (c) a registration statement on Form S-8 in connection with a shareholder approved equity incentive plan or (d) the filing of any amendment or supplement to any existing registration statement solely for the purpose of revising any required disclosure in such registration statement and not for the purpose of increasing the offering size pursuant to such registration statement. Such restrictions do not apply to certain Exempt Issuances (as defined in the Purchase Agreement). Needham & Company, LLC is acting as the sole placement agent for the Registered Direct Offering. The Company has agreed to pay customary placement fees and reimburse certain expenses of Needham & Company, LLC. The Offered Securities are being sold pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-272985) that was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 28, 2023, and which was declared effective on July 19, 2023 and a related base prospectus and prospectus supplement dated October 21, 2025 thereunder.
