Item 1.01Item 1.01 - Entry into Material Agreement
Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Investment Agreement As previously announced, Flex Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Singapore (the “Company” or “Flex”), intends to separate its Cloud and Power Infrastructure business into an independent publicly traded company, Axiom Solutions International, Inc., a Texas corporation and currently a wholly owned subsidiary of Flex (“Axiom”), in the first quarter of 2027 (the “Spin-Off”). As also announced, on September 3, 2026, a wholly owned subsidiary of Flex entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “EPC Purchase Agreement”) to acquire all of the equity interests of EPC Power Corp., a Delaware corporation (“EPC Power”), with Flex guaranteeing such subsidiary’s obligations thereunder (such transaction, the “EPC Power Acquisition”). The EPC Power Acquisition is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026 and, upon the closing of the EPC Power Acquisition, EPC Power is expected to become part of the Company’s Cloud and Power Infrastructure business prior to the Spin-Off. In connection with the pending EPC Power Acquisition, on October 2, 2026, the Company, Axiom, GC Venture XIII (ASI), L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“General Catalyst”), and other investors party thereto (together with General Catalyst, the “Investors”), entered into a Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Investment Agreement (the “Preferred Investment Agreement”), pursuant to which the Investors have agreed to collectively purchase 200,000 shares of Axiom’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Convertible Preferred Stock”), for a per share purchase price of $10,000 (the “Per Share Purchase Price” or “Stated Value”) and an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000,000 in a private placement (the “Preferred Investment”). The Company is a party to the Preferred Investment Agreement for purposes of, among other things, guaranteeing the full performance and payment by Axiom (at Axiom’s election, in cash or in Flex’s ordinary shares, no par value (“Flex Ordinary Shares”), or a combination thereof (which election is subject to the Company’s approval)) of its obligation to redeem all then-outstanding shares of the Convertible Preferred Stock held by the Investors if the Spin-Off is not consummated on or before December 31, 2027, for a price per share of the Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Redemption Price”) equal to: (i) if paid in cash, 115% of the Per Share Purchase Price, or (ii) if paid in Flex Ordinary Shares, 125% of the Per Share Purchase Price, and in each case, minus the sum of the aggregate amount of dividends that have been paid in cash on each share of the Convertible Preferred Stock as of the relevant redemption date (excluding any additional dividends paid as a result of an event of noncompliance); provided that the Redemption Price (as determined without regard to this proviso) shall be increased as necessary so that the after-tax amount retained by each Investor (determined by applying an assumed tax rate of 25.5% against (i) the excess of (a) the Redemption Price (as determined without regard to this proviso) over (b) the Stated Value and (ii) the additional amount determined under this proviso) is equal to the Redemption Price (as determined without regard to this proviso). To the extent Flex Ordinary Shares are used to pay the Redemption Price, Axiom and the Investors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mutually agree on the number of Flex Ordinary Shares to be delivered and Axiom’s support obligations in respect thereof, in each case prior to December 1, 2027, and the Company also agreed to provide customary registration rights with respect to such Flex Ordinary Shares. Any portion of the Redemption Price that remains unpaid as of the applicable redemption date will bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum until it is fully paid. The closing of the Preferred Investment is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions, including, among other things, the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period (and any extension thereof) under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the receipt of certain other required regulatory approval. The foregoing description of the Preferred Investment Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Preferred Investment Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
Item 3.02Item 3.02 - Unregistered Sales of Equity
Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities. The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.
