Description of Business Description of Business
Allbirds, Inc. (“Allbirds” and, together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” or “our”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on May 6, 2015. Headquartered in San Francisco, California, Allbirds has historically been a global lifestyle brand that innovates with sustainable materials to make better footwear and apparel products in a better way, while treading lighter on our planet. The majority of our revenue has historically been from sales directly to consumers via our digital and retail channels.
On March 29, 2026, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Allbirds IP LLC, an affiliate of American Exchange Group (the “Buyer”), pursuant to which Buyer will (a) acquire certain of the Company’s assets, including those related to intellectual property assets (including global trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents, domain names, social media accounts, customer lists, and related IP), inventory, certain accounts receivable, and certain prepaid expenses (the “Purchase Assets,” all of which relate to the existing footwear business); and (b) assume certain liabilities, including those related to certain accounts payable, certain scheduled current liabilities, and intellectual property transfer costs and expenses, subject to certain exceptions (collectively, the foregoing, the “Asset Sale”). All of the assets and liabilities to be acquired and assumed pursuant to the Asset Sale relate to our existing footwear business.
Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, Buyer will pay Allbirds an aggregate purchase price of $39.0 million upon the closing of the Asset Sale, subject to standard purchase price adjustments as set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, and less the amount of funds in escrow.
The Asset Sale is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, but the exact timing of the completion of the Asset Sale is not certain.
As described in Note 13, we intend to continue operating Allbirds, Inc. after the Asset Sale. In continuing to operate after the Asset Sale, we intend to rename Allbirds, Inc., and operate under a new corporate name. Our Board of Directors has not yet made a final decision on a new name for the company. With respect to the renamed corporate entity, we are investigating potential opportunities in the computing infrastructure market, including the acquisition and monetization of graphics processing units, related high-performance computing infrastructure capable of supporting high workloads (whether from artificial intelligence and machine learning or other needs of potential future customers) and other related assets (which we refer to collectively as “Electronics Assets,” and such anticipated business, the “Electronics Infrastructure Business”).
