Item 2.02.    Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On September 6, 2023, ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for its fiscal second quarter ended July 31, 2023. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information contained in this Item 2.02 and in the accompanying Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, unless expressly incorporated by specific reference in such filing.
Item 2.05    Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.
On September 6, 2023, the Company announced the reorganizing of its operations including a reduction of the Company's current global workforce by approximately 10% (the “Reorganization”). The Reorganization is expected to lead to approximately $8 million in charges, consisting primarily of severance benefits and facility-related expenses. The Company expects that most of these charges will be cash expenditures and that it will recognize these charges primarily during its fiscal third quarter. The Reorganization is expected to result in annual operating expense savings of approximately $30 million.
The estimates of the charges and expenditures that the Company expects to incur in connection with the Reorganization, and the timing thereof, are subject to a number of assumptions, including local law requirements in various jurisdictions, and actual amounts may differ materially from estimates. In addition, the Company may incur other charges or cash expenditures not currently contemplated due to unanticipated events that may occur, including in connection with the implementation of the Reorganization.
Item 7.01.    Regulation FD Disclosure.
In connection with the Reorganization, on September 6, 2023, Pasquale Romano, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, sent a communication to the Company’s employees. A copy of the communication is attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The information contained in this Item 7.01 and in the accompanying Exhibit 99.2 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, unless expressly incorporated by specific reference in such filing.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, including statements regarding the Reorganization, the charges the Company expects to recognize in connection therewith and the timing of such recognition, and the annual operating expense savings expected from the Reorganization. The Company cautions you that these forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risk and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties that could affect the Company and its financial results are included under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 8, 2023, which is available on the Company’s website at investors.chargepoint.com and on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. All forward-looking statements in this report are based on information available to the Company as of the date hereof, and the Company assumes no obligation to update the forward-looking statements provided to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they were made, except as required by applicable law.
