Explanatory Note

On June 30, 2025, we completed the redomiciliation of the parent company of our corporate group, Penguin Solutions (Cayman), Inc. (formerly known as Penguin Solutions, Inc.), a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Penguin Solutions Cayman”), from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware in the United States, resulting in Penguin Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Penguin Solutions Delaware”), becoming our publicly traded parent company (the “U.S. Domestication”). Penguin Solutions Delaware is the successor issuer to Penguin Solutions Cayman. The U.S. Domestication was approved by the shareholders of Penguin Solutions Cayman and effected via a court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Cayman Islands law, pursuant to which each ordinary share of Penguin Solutions Cayman was exchanged for one share of common stock of Penguin Solutions Delaware, and each convertible preferred share of Penguin Solutions Cayman was exchanged for one share of convertible preferred stock of Penguin Solutions Delaware. Additional information about the U.S. Domestication was included in Penguin Solutions Cayman’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 2, 2025.

The common stock of Penguin Solutions Delaware began trading on The Nasdaq Global Select Market on July 1, 2025 (the first trading day following the U.S. Domestication) under the symbol “PENG”, which is the same symbol under which Penguin Solutions Cayman ordinary shares previously traded.
