Item 3.01.			Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

As previously disclosed in the Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 of SunPower Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 13, 2023, the Company determined that it was unable, without unreasonable effort or expense, to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended October 1, 2023 (the “Form 10-Q”) by the prescribed due date as a result of the restatement of certain of the Company’s financial statements (the “Restatement”). The Restatement is more fully described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 24, 2023.

On November 22, 2023, the Company received a notice (the “Notice”) from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, as a result of not having timely filed the Form 10-Q with the SEC, the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Listing Rule”), which requires timely filing of all required periodic financial reports with the SEC.

The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq.

The Notice indicated that the Company must submit a plan to regain compliance with the Listing Rule within 60 calendar days and, following receipt of such plan, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the Form 10-Q due date, or until May 20, 2024, for the Company to regain compliance.

While the Company can provide no assurances as to timing, the Company is working diligently to complete the Restatement and plans to file the Form 10-Q as soon as practicable to regain compliance with the Listing Rule.

On November 27, 2023, the Company issued a press release announcing its receipt of the Notice. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.


Item 8.01.			Other Events.

The Company and Bank of America, N.A., the administrative agent and collateral agent for the lenders (the “Agent”) under the Credit Agreement dated as of September 12, 2022 (as amended by the First Amendment, dated as of January 26, 2023, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the subsidiaries party thereto, the Agent and the lenders party thereto are currently negotiating the terms and conditions of a consent and waiver, which is intended to address, including without limitation, the effects of the Restatement and failure to timely deliver the Form 10-Q to the lenders under the Credit Agreement.

Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K includes information that constitutes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance, and often contain words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” or “will.” By their nature, forward-looking statements address matters that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Any such forward-looking statements may involve risk and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from any future results encompassed within the forward-looking statements.

Examples of such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s ability to complete the filing of the Form 10-Q within the anticipated time period; the Company’s ability to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards; the time and effort required to complete the Restatement of the Company’s financial statements; and the Company’s ability to obtain waivers and consents under the Credit Agreement, and the timing and outcome thereof. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those related to the Company’s ability to complete the filing of the Form 10-Q within the anticipated time period; the Company’s ability to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards; the time and effort required to complete the Restatement of the Company’s financial statements; any subsequent discovery of additional adjustments to the Company’s previously issued financial statements; our ability to obtain waivers and consents under our Credit Agreement, and the timing and outcome thereof; our ability to comply with debt covenants or cure any defaults; our ability to repay our obligations as they come due; our ability to remediate the material weakness related the internal control over financial reporting; and the risks and other important factors discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2023, and the Company’s other filings with the SEC. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s views as of any subsequent date, and the Company is under no obligation to, and expressly disclaims any responsibility to, update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
