any consequences associated with joint ventures and legislative and regulatory actions and reforms.
Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events, results or performance to differ materially from those indicated by such statements. Certain of these risks are identified and discussed in other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 4, 2024. These risk factors will be important to consider in determining future results and should be reviewed in their entirety. These forward-looking statements are expressed in good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that the events, results or trends identified in these forward-looking statements will occur or be achieved. Forward-looking statements are provided for the purposes of assisting the reader in understanding our financial performance, financial position and cash flows as of and for periods ended on certain dates and to present information about management’s current expectations and plans relating to the future, and the reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements because of their inherent uncertainty and to appreciate the limited purposes for which they are being used by management. While we believe that the assumptions and expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable based on information currently available to management, there is no assurance that such assumptions and expectations will prove to have been correct.
The forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made and are based on the beliefs, estimates, expectations and opinions of management on that date. We are not under any obligation, and expressly disclaim any obligation, to update, alter or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
In addition to factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 4, 2024, and those identified elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements or historical performance: failure to realize the benefits expected from adding to Symbotic’s base of outsourcing partners and the effects of pending and future legislation.
Annualized and estimated numbers are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results.
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “Symbotic,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Symbotic Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.

Symbotic Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Organization and Operations
SVF Investment Corp. 3, formerly known as SVF Investment III Corp., (“SVF 3” and, after the transactions described below, “Symbotic” or the “Company”) was a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on December 11, 2020. Warehouse Technologies LLC (“Legacy Warehouse”) was formed in December 2006 to make investments in companies that develop new technologies to improve operating efficiencies in modern warehouses. Symbotic LLC, a technology company that develops and commercializes innovative technologies for use within warehouse operations, and Symbotic Group Holdings, ULC were wholly owned subsidiaries of Legacy Warehouse. On December 12, 2021, (i) SVF 3 entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Legacy Warehouse, Symbotic Holdings LLC (“Symbotic Holdings”), and Saturn Acquisition (DE) Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of SVF 3 (“Merger Sub”) and (ii) Legacy Warehouse entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Company Merger Agreement”) with Symbotic Holdings.
On June 7, 2022, as contemplated by the Company Merger Agreement, Legacy Warehouse merged with and into Symbotic Holdings (the “Company Reorganization”), with Symbotic Holdings surviving the merger (“Interim Symbotic”). Immediately following such merger, on June 7, 2022, as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, SVF 3 transferred by way of continuation from the Cayman Islands and domesticated as a Delaware corporation, changing its name to “Symbotic Inc.” Immediately following the domestication of SVF 3, on June 7, 2022, as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Interim Symbotic (the “Merger” and, together with the Company Reorganization, the “Business Combination”), with Interim Symbotic surviving the merger as a subsidiary of Symbotic (“New Symbotic Holdings”).
Symbotic is an automation technology company established to develop technologies to improve operating efficiencies in modern warehouses. The Company’s vision is to make the supply chain work better for everyone. The Company does this by developing innovative, comprehensive technology solutions that dramatically improve supply chain operations. The Company currently automates the processing of pallets and cases in large warehouses for some of the largest retail companies in the world. Its systems enhance operations at the front end of the supply chain, and therefore benefit all supply partners further down the chain, irrespective of fulfillment strategy.
The Company’s headquarters are located in Wilmington, Massachusetts, and its Canadian headquarters are located in Montreal, Quebec.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed in, or omitted from, these interim financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto as of and for the year ended September 28, 2024, which are included within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 4, 2024. The September 28, 2024 consolidated balance sheet included herein is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and majority-owned subsidiaries and reflect all adjustments (consisting solely of normal, recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include 100% of the accounts of wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and the ownership interest of the minority investor is recorded as a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year.
The Company operates and reports using a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the last Saturday of September of each calendar year. Each of the Company’s fiscal quarters end on the last Saturday of the third month of each quarter.
8

Use of Estimates
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and the amounts disclosed in the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from management’s estimates, judgments, and assumptions. Significant estimates, judgments, and assumptions used in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, those related to revenue, useful lives and realizability of long-lived assets, accounting for income taxes and related valuation allowances, and stock-based compensation. Estimates are periodically reviewed in light of changes in circumstances, facts, and experience.
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of and for the year ended September 28, 2024. There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies during the three month period ended December 28, 2024.
Presentation of Restricted Cash
Restricted cash primarily consists of collateral required for a credit card processing program and a U.S. customs bond. The short-term or long-term classification is determined in accordance with the required amount of time the cash is to be held as collateral, which is short-term for less than 12 months, and long-term for greater than 12 months from the balance sheet date. The following table summarizes the end-of-period cash and cash equivalents from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and the total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as presented on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (in thousands):
Three Months Ended

For the three months ended December 28, 2024, there were two suppliers that accounted for greater than 10% of total purchases, and the aggregate purchases amounted to $87.1 million. For the three months ended December 30, 2023, there was one supplier that accounted for greater than 10% of total purchases, and the aggregate purchases amounted to $40.0 million.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 enhances segment reporting under Topic 280 by expanding the breadth and frequency of segment disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of significant expenses that are regularly provided to an entity’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included in the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit or loss. When applying this disclosure requirement, an entity identifies the segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM or easily computable from information that is regularly provided to the CODM. Entities are also required to disclose other segment items, i.e., the difference between reported segment revenue less the significant segment expenses and the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 also clarifies that single reportable segment entities are subject to Topic 280 in its entirety. ASU 2023-07 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 should be adopted retrospectively unless impracticable. Early adoption is permitted. The disclosures required by ASU 2023-07 are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
9

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires public entities, on an annual basis, to provide: a tabular rate reconciliation (using both percentages and reporting currency amounts) of (1) the reported income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations, to (2) the product of the income (or loss) from continuing operations before income taxes and the applicable statutory federal (national) income tax rate of the jurisdiction (country) of domicile using specific categories, and separate disclosure for any reconciling items within certain categories that are equal to or greater than a specified quantitative threshold. For each annual period presented, ASU 2023-09 also requires all reporting entities to disclose the year-to-date amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal (national), state, and foreign. It also requires additional disaggregated information on income taxes paid (net of refunds received) to an individual jurisdiction equal to or greater than 5% of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). ASU 2023-09 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. ASU 2023-09 is to be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) - Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires additional disclosure about specified categories of expenses included in relevant expense captions presented on the income statement. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2024-03 will have on its disclosures.
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs issued by the FASB. There are no other accounting pronouncements which have been issued but are not yet effective that would have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements when adopted.
3. Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of net assets in consolidated entities that are not owned by the Company.

4. Revenue
The Company generates revenue through its design and installation of supply chain automation systems (the “System”) to automate customers’ depalletizing, storage, selection, and palletization warehousing processes. The System has both a hardware component and an essential software component that enables the System to be programmed to operate within specific customer environments. The Company enters into contracts with customers that can include various combinations of services to design and install the System. These services are generally distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. As a result, each customer contract may contain multiple performance obligations. The Company determines whether performance obligations are distinct based on whether the customer can benefit from the product or service on its own or together with other resources that are readily available and whether the Company’s commitment to provide the services to the customer is separately identifiable from other obligations in the contract.
10

The Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control of promised goods or services in a contract with a customer, generally as title and risk of loss pass to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. Revenue is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur and when collection is considered probable. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined its contracts do not include a significant financing component. Taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities, are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in revenue and the related costs are included in cost of revenue when incurred. The Company presents amounts collected from customers for sales and other taxes net of the related amounts remitted.
The design, assembly, and installation of a System includes substantive customer-specified acceptance criteria that allow the customer to accept or reject Systems that do not meet the customer’s specifications. When the Company cannot objectively determine that acceptance criteria will be met upon contract inception, revenue relating to Systems is deferred and recognized at a point in time upon final acceptance from the customer. If acceptance can be reasonably certain upon contract inception, revenue is recognized over time based on an input method, using a cost-to-cost measure of progress. Under this method, revenue is recorded based on the ratio of costs incurred over total estimated contract costs. This method provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of the System to the customer because the costs incurred represent the Company’s inputs towards satisfying the performance obligation.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company provides disaggregation of revenue based on product and service type on the consolidated statements of operations as it believes these categories best depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
Contract Balances
The following table provides information about accounts receivable, unbilled accounts receivable, and contract liabilities from contracts with customers (in thousands):
December 28, 2024September 28, 2024
Accounts receivable$134,391 $201,548 
Unbilled accounts receivable$223,349 $218,233 
Contract liabilities$863,886 $805,547 
The change in the opening and closing balances of the Company’s accounts receivable primarily results from the increase in customer System implementations in the current fiscal year as well as the timing of when customer payments are due. The change in the opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract liabilities primarily results from the timing difference between the Company’s performance and customer payments. The Company’s performance obligations are typically satisfied over time as work is performed. Payment from customers can vary, and is often received in advance of satisfaction of the performance obligations, resulting in a contract liability balance. During the three months ended December 28, 2024, the Company recognized $101.1 million of the contract liability balance at September 28, 2024, as revenue upon transfer of the products or services to customers. During the three months ended December 30, 2023, the Company recognized $249.7 million of the contract liability balance at September 30, 2023, as revenue upon transfer of the products or services to customers.

Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations not delivered, or partially undelivered, at the end of the reporting period. Remaining performance obligations include deferred revenue plus unbilled amounts not yet recorded in deferred revenue. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in scope of contracts, periodic revalidation, adjustments for revenue that have not materialized, adjustments for inflation, and adjustments for currency. The definition of remaining performance obligations excludes those contracts that provide the customer with the right to cancel or terminate the contract without incurring a substantial penalty as well as operation services contracts. For contracts with a duration of greater than one year, the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied as of December 28, 2024 was $22.4 billion, which is primarily comprised of undelivered or partially undelivered Systems under contract, and which a substantial majority relates to undelivered or partially undelivered Systems in connection with the Master Automation Agreement (“MAA”) with Walmart Inc. (“Walmart”) to implement Systems in all of Walmart’s 42 regional distribution centers, and in connection with the Commercial Agreement with GreenBox (as defined below) under which Symbotic will implement its System into GreenBox distribution center locations. As the Company accounts for GreenBox as an equity method investment, the remaining performance obligation includes the Company’s proportionate share of unconsolidated variable interest entity contracts. The Company expects to recognize approximately 11% of its remaining performance obligations as revenue in the next 12 months, approximately 57% of its remaining performance obligations as revenue within the next 13 to 60 months, and the remaining thereafter, which is dependent on the timing of System installation timelines. The Company does not disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less.
Significant Customers
For the three months ended December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, there was one customer, including all affiliates, subsidiaries, and consolidated entities, that individually accounted for 10% or more of total revenue. The following table represents this customer’s aggregate percent of total revenue.

9. Income Taxes
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income taxes, in addition to state and local income taxes, with respect to its allocable share of any taxable income or loss of Symbotic Holdings, LLC. The remaining share of Symbotic Holdings income or loss is non-taxable to the Company and is not reflected in current or deferred income taxes. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries are subject to income tax in their local jurisdictions.
For the three months ended December 28, 2024, the Company recorded a current income tax expense of $0.2 million, and for the three months ended December 30, 2023, the Company recorded a current income tax expense of $0.2 million. The Company incurred a pre-tax loss for the three month period and recorded a full valuation allowance against its domestic deferred tax assets and a partial valuation allowance against its foreign deferred tax assets. The Company incurs state tax expense by Symbotic at the flow-through entity level and foreign tax expense at its foreign subsidiaries. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 28, 2024 is (0.8)% and differs from the federal statutory income tax rate primarily due
14

to the flow-through entity level taxes and the effect of the valuation allowance against its net federal, state, and foreign deferred income taxes.
As of December 28, 2024, the Company continues to conclude that the negative evidence regarding its ability to realize its deferred tax assets outweighs the positive evidence, and the Company has a full valuation allowance against its domestic federal and state net deferred tax assets and a partial valuation allowance against its foreign net deferred tax assets. The Company has a history of cumulative pre-tax losses for the three previous fiscal years which it believes represents significant negative evidence in evaluating whether its deferred tax assets are realizable. Given these cumulative losses, lack of forecast history, the competitive environment, and uncertainty of general economic conditions, the Company does not believe it can rely on projections of future taxable income exclusive of reversing taxable temporary differences to support the realization of its deferred tax assets. In upcoming quarters, the Company will continue to evaluate both the positive and negative evidence surrounding its ability to realize its deferred tax assets.
Tax Receivable Agreement
As of December 28, 2024 future payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) with respect to the purchase of Symbotic Holdings units which occurred as part of or subsequent to the Business Combination are expected to be $409.1 million. Payments made under the TRA represent payments that otherwise would have been made to taxing authorities in the absence of attributes obtained by the Company as a result of exchanges by its pre-IPO members. Such amounts will be paid only when a cash tax savings is realized as a result of attributes subject to the TRA. That is, payments under the TRA are only expected to be made in periods following the filing of a tax return in which the Company is able to utilize certain tax benefits to reduce its cash taxes paid to a taxing authority. The impact of any changes in the projected obligations under the TRA as a result of changes in the geographic mix of the Company’s earnings, changes in tax legislation and tax rates or other factors that may impact the Company’s tax savings will be reflected in income or loss before taxes on the consolidated statement of operations in the period in which the change occurs. As of December 28, 2024, no TRA liability was recorded based on current projections of future taxable income taking into consideration the Company’s full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset.
10. Fair Value Measures
The Company measures certain financial assets at fair value. Fair value is determined based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, as determined by either the principal market or the most advantageous market. Inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values are classified based on a three-level hierarchy, as follows:
Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for an identical asset or liability in an active market
Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for a similar asset or liability in an active market or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability
Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability
The following table presents the Company’s financial assets measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis using the above input categories as of December 28, 2024 and September 28, 2024 (in thousands):

15

The Company had no liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 28, 2024 and September 28, 2024.
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The fair value of the Company’s investments in certain money market funds is their face value and such instruments are classified as Level 1 and are included in cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheets. At December 28, 2024, the fair value of the warrant issued as described in Note 11, Derivative Instruments, is classified as Level 2. Level 2 securities are priced by pricing vendors. These pricing vendors utilize the most recent observable market information in pricing these securities or, if specific prices are not available for these securities, use other observable inputs like market transactions involving identical or comparable securities.
11. Derivative Instruments
During fiscal year 2024, the Company entered into warrant agreements and a development and supply agreement with a supplier which, subject to meeting certain conditions, will entitle the Company to acquire a fixed number of shares of the supplier during the period of time set forth in the warrant agreements. The warrants vest in a series of tranches, at a specified price per share, upon meeting certain development and production-based milestones. If, and when, the relevant milestone is reached, the corresponding tranche of warrant will become exercisable up until the expiration date of the warrants in May 2044.
The warrants are accounted for as a derivative under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, as a result of certain net settlement provisions in the warrant agreements. The Company reports the warrants at their fair values within “other assets” in its condensed consolidated balance sheets and changes in the fair value of the warrants are recognized in “other income, net” on its condensed consolidated statements of operations. The day-one value attributable to the other side of the warrants is reported within “other liabilities” in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and will be amortized over the life of the applicable development and production milestones as determined in the development and supply agreement. The fair value of the warrants recognized within “other assets” on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets at December 28, 2024 is $12.3 million. There is no impact recorded to “other income, net” on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the period ended December 28, 2024, as there has been no change to the fair value of the warrants since the Company entered into these warrant agreements in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024.
12. Related Party Transactions
ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures (“ASC 850”), provides guidance for the identification of related parties and the disclosure of related party transactions. Related parties are generally defined as (i) affiliates of the Company; (ii) owners of more than 10% of the voting interests of the Company and members of their immediate families; (iii) management of the Company and members of their immediate families; (iv) other parties which directly or indirectly control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company; or (v) other parties who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. The Company assesses related parties each reporting period. For the period ending December 28, 2024, the Company determined that C&S Wholesale Grocers, Inc. (“C&S”), GreenBox, and certain current holders of Symbotic Holdings were each a related party under ASC 850. The following transactions were related party transactions under ASC 850.
Aircraft Time Sharing Agreement
In December 2021 and May 2022, the Company entered into aircraft time-sharing agreements with C&S with respect to private aircraft owned by them, whereby the Company’s executives may utilize two C&S aircraft on an as-needed and as-available basis, with no minimum usage being required. As there is no defined period of time stated within these aircraft time-sharing agreements, the Company does not consider these to meet the definition of a lease, and as such, records payments in the period in which the obligation for the payment is incurred. For the three months ended December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company incurred expense of $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, related to these aircraft time-sharing agreements.
Usage of Facility and Employee Services
The Company has a license arrangement with C&S whereby C&S is providing receiving and logistics services for the Company within a C&S distribution facility. The arrangement also provides for C&S employees assisting with certain of the Company’s operations. For the three months ended December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company incurred expense of $0.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively, related to this arrangement.
16

Customer Contracts
The Company has customer contracts with C&S relating to systems implementation, software maintenance services and the operations of Systems. Revenue of $2.2 million and $12.8 million was recognized for the three months ended December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively, relating to these customer contracts. There was $5.2 million unbilled accounts receivable and accounts receivable due from C&S at December 28, 2024, and $18.4 million unbilled accounts receivable and accounts receivable due from C&S at September 28, 2024. There was $2.5 million and $1.8 million of deferred revenue related to contracts with C&S at December 28, 2024 and September 28, 2024, respectively. The transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied as of December 28, 2024 was $4.6 million.
GreenBox
The Company has a customer contract relating to systems implementation and shared services with GreenBox. Revenue of $2.7 million was recognized for the three months ended December 28, 2024 related to this customer contract. There was no unbilled accounts receivable and accounts receivable due from the customer contract and $2.0 million accounts receivable due from the shared service agreement at December 28, 2024. There was $77.1 million and $69.1 million of deferred revenue related to contracts with GreenBox at December 28, 2024 and September 28, 2024, respectively. The transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied as of December 28, 2024 was $11.5 billion. There was no revenue, accounts receivable, or deferred revenue for GreenBox at and for the three months ended December 30, 2023. Funding of $6.8 million was made by the Company to GreenBox in relation to the VIE (as further described in Note 14, Variable Interest Entities) for the three months ended December 28, 2024. No funding was made for the three months ended December 30, 2023.
Tax Distribution to Symbotic Holdings LLC partners
Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Symbotic Holdings, Symbotic LLC makes pro rata tax distributions to the holders of Symbotic Holdings’ units in an amount sufficient to fund all or part of their tax obligations with respect to the taxable income of Symbotic Holdings that is allocated to them. For the three months ended December 28, 2024, the Company distributed a total of $0.9 million of tax distributions to or on behalf of its members, of which $0.8 million was distributed to or on behalf of those who met the definition of a related party in accordance with ASC 850.
13. Commitments and Contingencies
Purchase Obligations
The Company has contractual obligations to purchase goods or services, which specify significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased and fixed minimum, or variable price provisions. The majority of the purchase commitments covered by these arrangements are for periods of less than one year and aggregate to approximately $1.3 billion as of December 28, 2024.
Lease Commitments
The Company leases certain of its facilities under operating leases expiring in various years through 2030. Refer to Note 5, Leases for a schedule of future lease payments under non-cancellable leases as of December 28, 2024.
17

Warranty
The Company provides a limited warranty on its System and has established a reserve for warranty obligations based on estimated warranty costs. The reserve is included as part of “accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “other liabilities” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Activity related to the warranty accrual is as follows (in thousands):

Legal Matters
The Company is subject from time to time to various claims, lawsuits and other legal and administrative proceedings. Some of these claims, lawsuits and other proceedings may involve highly complex issues that are subject to substantial uncertainties, and could result in damages, fines and penalties, non-monetary sanctions or relief.
The Company recognizes provisions for claims or pending litigation when it is determined that an unfavorable outcome is probable, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Due to the inherent uncertain nature of litigation, the ultimate outcome or actual cost of settlement may materially vary from estimates.
SEC Matters
The Company has been responding to requests for information from the SEC relating to an investigation by the SEC of alleged violations by the Company of Rule 21F-17, which prohibits actions to impede communications directly with the SEC staff about a possible securities law violation. The Company intends to continue to defend this matter vigorously and cannot predict the outcome of this investigation.
The Company has received a subpoena from the SEC relating to its November 2024 restatement of revenues for the year ended September 28, 2024 and certain other matters. The Company is cooperating with the SEC with respect to this matter.
Securities Class Actions
On August 14, 2024, a putative class action captioned Fox v. Symbotic Inc. et al., Case No. 24-cv-12090 was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by an alleged holder of the Company’s common stock. The complaint asserts claims for violations of federal securities laws against the Company and two of its officers on the grounds that, among other things, the Company made false and/or misleading statements related to its expected earnings for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. Based on these allegations, the plaintiff brings claims seeking unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees, expert fees, and other costs and relief on behalf of herself and a putative class of persons who purchased the Company’s stock between May 6, 2024 and July 29, 2024. On September 11, 2024, the court entered a stipulation staying the Company’s deadline to respond to the complaint until after a lead plaintiff has been appointed pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. As of February 3, 2025, a lead plaintiff has not been appointed. On December 20, 2024, the plaintiff filed a motion to consolidate this matter with another putative class action captioned Decker v. Symbotic Inc. et al. (further described below). As of February 3, 2025, the court has not yet ruled on the pending motion to consolidate.
On December 3, 2024, a putative class action captioned Decker v. Symbotic Inc. et al., Case No. 24-cv-12976 was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by an alleged purchaser of the Company’s common stock. The complaint asserts claims for violations of federal securities laws against the Company and three of its officers on the grounds that the Company made false and/or misleading statements related to its revenue recognition and the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based on these allegations, the plaintiff brings claims seeking unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees, expert fees, and other costs and relief on behalf of himself and a putative class of persons who purchased the Company’s stock between February 8, 2024 and November 26, 2024. The parties have filed a stipulation staying the Company’s deadline to respond to the complaint until after a pending motion to consolidate is resolved and a lead plaintiff has been appointed pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.
The Company intends to vigorously defend these cases. If a court ultimately determines that the Company is liable in either or both of these cases, the Company may be subject to substantial damages. The Company cannot predict with any
18

degree of certainty the outcome of these matters or determine the extent of any potential liabilities. The Company also cannot provide an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss. Any adverse outcome in these matters could expose the Company to substantial damages that may have a material adverse impact on its operations and cash flows. Despite the potential for significant damages, the Company does not believe, based on currently available information, that the outcome of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, although the outcome could be material to its operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon the operating results for such period.
Shareholder Derivative Actions
On October 2, 2024, two putative shareholder derivative actions captioned Austen v. Cohen et al., 24-cv-12522 and Kukreja v. Cohen et al., 24-cv-12523 were filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by the Company’s alleged shareholders. The actions assert claims on behalf of the Company against certain senior officers and members of its board of directors for, among others, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and violations of federal securities laws based primarily on allegations that the defendants caused or allowed the Company to disseminate misleading and inaccurate information to shareholders in connection with the Company’s expected earnings for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. The actions also contend that the defendants wasted corporate assets by exposing the Company to the securities class action lawsuit filed on August 14, 2024. The actions seek compensatory damages, changes to corporate governance and internal procedures, restitution, costs and attorneys’ fees, and other unspecified relief. Motions to consolidate the two actions into a single matter, appoint lead plaintiffs’ counsel, and stay any obligation of the defendants to respond to the complaint based on the pendency of the related Fox v. Symbotic securities class action lawsuit remain pending.
The Company intends to vigorously defend these cases. If a court ultimately determines that the Company is liable, the Company may be subject to substantial damages. The Company cannot predict with any degree of certainty the outcome of this matter or determine the extent of any potential liabilities. The Company also cannot provide an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss. Any adverse outcome in this matter could expose the Company to substantial damages that may have a material adverse impact on its operations and cash flows. Despite the potential for significant damages, the Company does not believe, based on currently available information, that the outcome of this proceeding will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, although the outcome could be material to its operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon the operating results for such period.
Contingencies
Liabilities for any loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, penalties, and other matters are recorded when it is probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs associated with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. As of December 28, 2024, the Company had made appropriate provisions related to such matters and does not believe that such matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated operations, financial position, or liquidity.
Indemnifications
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into various contracts under which it may agree to indemnify other parties for losses incurred from certain events as defined in the relevant contract, such as litigation, regulatory penalties, or claims relating to past performance. Such indemnification obligations may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. The Company has never incurred costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification obligations. As a result, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these obligations is not material. Accordingly, the Company has no liabilities recorded for these obligations as of December 28, 2024 and September 28, 2024.
14. Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”)
VIEs are entities with any of the following characteristics: (i) the entity does not have enough equity to finance its activities without additional financial support; (ii) the equity holders, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest; or (iii) the entity is structured with non-substantive voting rights.
Consolidation of a VIE is required for the party deemed to be the primary beneficiary, if any. The primary beneficiary is the party who has both (a) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (b) an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity.
On July 23, 2023, the Company, New Symbotic Holdings, and Symbotic LLC (collectively, the “Symbotic Group”), entered into a Framework Agreement (the “Framework Agreement”) with Sunlight Investment Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Sunlight”), SVF II Strategic Investments AIV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SVF” and, together with

Sunlight, “SoftBank”), and GreenBox Systems LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GreenBox”), related to, among other things, the formation of GreenBox as a venture between the Symbotic Group and SoftBank and a warrant to purchase Class A Common Stock of Symbotic (the “GreenBox Warrant”). On July 23, 2023, GreenBox also entered into a Master Services, License and Equipment Agreement with Symbotic LLC with respect to the purchase of Systems (“GreenBox Commercial Agreement”).
GreenBox was established on July 21, 2023, to build and automate supply chain networks globally by operating and financing the Company’s advanced artificial intelligence and automation technology for the warehouse. Symbotic Holdings and Sunlight own 35% and 65% of GreenBox, respectively. The Company evaluated for VIEs upon the formation of GreenBox in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation. The Company holds a variable interest in GreenBox through its equity interest in GreenBox. GreenBox is a VIE resulting from GreenBox’s lack of sufficient equity to finance its operations without additional subordinated financial support from both the Company and SoftBank. The consolidation of GreenBox is not required as the Company is not the primary beneficiary of this VIE as it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact GreenBox’s economic performance. Such power is conveyed through GreenBox’s board of directors and the Company does not have control over GreenBox’s board of directors.
The Company’s recorded investments in the unconsolidated VIE and related estimated maximum exposure to loss are as follows (in thousands):
December 28, 2024
Investments in Unconsolidated VIESymbotic's Maximum Exposure to Loss
GreenBox Systems LLC$85,946 $1,635,200 
The Company calculated its maximum exposure to loss while considering its equity investment in the VIE, any amounts owed to the Company for services which may have been provided, and future funding commitments of $1,633.2 million. As of December 28, 2024, there is a $85.9 million carrying value of the VIE which represents the amount which the Company has invested in the VIE, net of the Company’s proportionate share of the VIE’s net loss. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as displayed above does not take into consideration the VIE’s commitment under the GreenBox Commercial Agreement to reimburse the Company in the event of a termination. If the VIE’s commitment under the GreenBox Commercial Agreement was taken into consideration, there would be no maximum exposure to loss presented as the VIE’s commitment under the GreenBox Commercial Agreement exceeds the Company’s future funding commitments.
15. Net Loss per Share
Basic earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders adjusted for the assumed exchange of all potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive elements. Since the Company incurred net losses for each of the periods presented, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share.

The following table sets forth reconciliations of the numerators and denominators used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock (in thousands, except per share information):

The Company’s Class V-1 Common Stock and Class V-3 Common Stock do not participate in the earnings or losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share of Class V-1 Common Stock and Class V-3 Common Stock under the two-class method has not been presented.
The Company uses the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period for calculating any potential dilutive effect of its equity instruments. The average stock price for the three months ended December 28, 2024 was $28.49. For the three months ended December 28, 2024, there were 4.0 million potentially dilutive common stock equivalents related to the RSUs which would have been included in the diluted EPS calculation, and 5.4 million anti-dilutive common stock equivalents related to the unvested GreenBox Warrant that could potentially dilute EPS in the future.

Warrants
GreenBox Warrant
On July 23, 2023, the Company issued the GreenBox Warrant, which allows Sunlight to acquire up to an aggregate of 11,434,360 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, subject to certain vesting conditions. The GreenBox Warrant had a grant date fair value of $19.90 per share. The GreenBox Warrant may vest in connection with conditions defined by the terms of the GreenBox Warrant, as GreenBox makes additional expenditures to the Company in connection with the Framework Agreement. There are up to eight tranches in the GreenBox Warrant based on increments of expenditures where
21

approximately 1,429,295 additional shares may vest per tranche, subject to certain conditions defined by the terms of the GreenBox Warrant. Upon vesting, warrant shares may be acquired at an exercise price of $41.9719. The warrant contains customary anti-dilution, down-round, and change-in-control provisions. The right to purchase shares in connection with the GreenBox Warrant expires 36 months following the end of the initial term of the Framework Agreement which is July 23, 2027, or if applicable, the extension term of the Framework Agreement, which is July 23, 2029. As of December 28, 2024, none of the GreenBox Warrant shares had vested.
Walmart Warrant
On May 20, 2022, in connection with its entry into the 2nd Amended and Restated MAA, the Company issued Walmart a warrant to acquire up to an aggregate of 258,972 Legacy Warehouse Class A Units (“May 2022 Warrant”), subject to certain vesting conditions. The May 2022 Warrant had a grant date fair value of $224.45. In connection with the closing of the Company’s initial public offering in June 2022, the May 2022 Warrant was converted into a new warrant to acquire up to an aggregate of 15,870,411 common units of Symbotic Holdings (“June 2022 Warrant” and, the common units of Symbotic Holdings issuable thereunder, the “Warrant Units”). The June 2022 Warrant vested in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023, as the installation commencement date for certain Systems which the Company is installing in Walmart’s 42 regional distribution centers had occurred. In December 2023, Walmart elected to gross exercise the vested warrants for $158.7 million. As a result of this gross exercise, 15,870,411 shares of Class V-1 Common Stock were issued to Walmart.

18. Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Other than as described in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
On January 15, 2025, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Walmart, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company agreed to acquire from Walmart all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Walmart Advanced Systems & Robotics Inc. (“WASR”), a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Walmart.
The Purchase Agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Symbotic will pay to Walmart, (a) upon the closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, $200 million in cash, subject to customary adjustments for cash, indebtedness and transaction expenses (the “Base Consideration”), and (b)
22

deferred cash consideration following the Closing of (i) $175 million, payable only upon acceptance of the first APD (as defined below) under the terms of the Walmart Commercial Agreement (as defined below) by Walmart, and (ii) $175 million, payable only upon Walmart’s exercise of the Additional APD Option (as defined below). As stated below, the acquisition closed on January 27, 2025, and the Company paid Walmart $200 million in cash.
The Purchase Agreement also contemplates that, immediately prior to or at the Closing, the Company and Walmart (or their respective affiliates) will enter into a number of ancillary agreements, including (a) a transition services agreement, pursuant to which Walmart and its affiliates will provide certain transition services to Symbotic LLC and affiliates thereof for a period following the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, and (b) an intellectual property agreement, pursuant to which Walmart and its affiliates will grant to the Company and its affiliates certain licenses concerning intellectual property assets relating to the operation of the Business (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein.
Contemporaneously with the Closing, Symbotic LLC and Walmart entered into a Master Automation Agreement (the “Walmart Commercial Agreement”), which sets forth the terms and conditions governing the development, manufacture and installation of accelerated pickup and delivery systems (“APDs”) by Symbotic LLC for Walmart. The Walmart Commercial Agreement provides for a commitment, subject to the satisfaction of defined system performance metrics of the APDs, from Walmart to purchase 400 APDs, with an option for Walmart to purchase an additional 200 APDs (the “Additional APD Option”), exercisable by Walmart within 30 days following acceptance of the 220th APD under the terms of the Walmart Commercial Agreement. For each APD, Walmart will pay Symbotic LLC: (a) the cost of implementation, including the cost of material and labor, plus a specified net profit amount; (b) for software maintenance and support; and (c) for spare parts and other miscellaneous expenses. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Walmart Commercial Agreement, Walmart will also pay Symbotic LLC a total of $520 million of research and development fees relating to the generation of prototypes and other research and development, with $230 million payable at Closing, $165 million payable one year after Closing and $125 million payable two years after Closing, and under certain specified circumstances if Symbotic LLC commercializes substantially similar APDs (or the software used within such APDs) with third parties, Walmart may be entitled to a royalty fee paid by Symbotic LLC.
The Company completed the acquisition of WASR on January 27, 2025, with a preliminary purchase price of up to $200 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of and for the year ended September 28, 2024, as included within our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 4, 2024. As discussed in the section titled “Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements,” the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included under Part II, Item 1A below.
Company Overview
Our vision is to make the supply chain work better for everyone. We do this by developing, commercializing, and deploying innovative, comprehensive technology solutions that dramatically improve supply chain operations. We currently automate the processing of pallets and cases in large warehouses for some of the largest retail companies in the world. Our System enhances operations at the front end of the supply chain, and therefore benefit all supply partners further down the chain, irrespective of fulfillment strategy.
Our System is based on a unique approach to connecting producers of goods to end users, in a way that resolves the mismatches of quantity, timing and location that arise between the two, while reducing costs. The underlying architecture of our System is what differentiates our solution from anything else in the marketplace. It utilizes fully autonomous robots, collectively controlled by our artificial intelligence enabled system software to achieve at scale, real world supply chain improvements that are so compelling that we believe our approach can become the de facto standard approach for how warehouses operate.
Key Components of Consolidated Statements of Operations
Revenue
We generate revenue through our design and installation of supply chain automation systems to automate customers’ depalletizing, storage, selection, and palletization warehousing processes (“System”). The Systems have both a hardware component and an essential software component that enables the Systems to be programmed to operate within specific customer environments. We enter into contracts with customers that can include various combinations of services to design and install the Systems. These services are generally distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. As a result, each customer contract may contain multiple performance obligations. We determine whether performance obligations are distinct based on whether the customer can benefit from the product or service on its own or together with other resources that are readily available and whether our commitment to provide the services to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.
We have identified the following distinct performance obligations in our contracts with customers:
Systems: We design, assemble, and install Systems and perform configuration of essential software. Systems include the delivery of hardware and an essential software component, sold as either a perpetual or term-based on-premise license, that automate our customers’ depalletizing, storage, selection, and palletization warehousing processes. The hardware and essential software are each not capable of being distinct because our customers cannot benefit from the hardware or software on their own. Accordingly, they are treated as a single performance obligation. Fees for Systems are typically either fixed or cost-plus fixed fee amounts that are due based on the achievement of a variety of milestones beginning at contract inception through final acceptance. The substantial majority of our software is sold as a perpetual on-premise license, however, we do sell an immaterial amount of term-based on-premise licenses.
The key metrics which describe our System from commencement to completion are as follows: (1) “Start” is defined as when we sign a Statement of Work (“SOW”) with a customer; (2) “Deployment” is defined as the period of time following the signed SOW until the acceptance of the System; and (3) “Operational” is defined as achieving acceptance of a System. The majority of Systems revenue occurs during Deployment, and once a System is Operational, software maintenance and support begins.
24

Software Maintenance and Support: “Software Maintenance and Support” is defined as support services that provide our customers with technical support, updates, and upgrades to the software license. Fees for Software Maintenance and Support are typically payable in advance on a quarterly, or annual basis over the term of the Software Maintenance and Support contract, which term can range from one to 15 years but, for a substantial majority of our Software Maintenance and Support contracts, is 15 years.
Operation Services: “Operation Services” is defined as assistance services we provide our customers operating the System and ensuring user experience is optimized for efficiency and effectiveness. Fees for Operation Services are typically invoiced to our customers on a time and materials basis monthly in arrears or using a fixed fee structure. Also included in Operation Services is revenue generated from the sales of spare parts to our customers as needed to service their System.
Cost of Revenue
Our cost of revenue is composed of the following for each of our distinct performance obligations:
Systems: Systems cost of revenue consists primarily of material and labor consumed in the production and installation of Systems, as well as depreciation expense. The design, assembly, and installation of a System includes substantive customer-specified acceptance criteria that allow the customer to accept or reject Systems that do not meet the customer’s specifications. When we cannot objectively determine that acceptance criteria will be met upon contract inception, cost of revenue relating to Systems is deferred and expensed at a point in time upon final acceptance from the customer. If acceptance criteria can be reasonably certain upon contract inception, Systems cost of revenue is expensed as incurred.
Software Maintenance and Support: Cost of revenue attributable to Software Maintenance and Support primarily relates to labor cost for our maintenance team providing routine technical support, and maintenance updates and upgrades to our customers. Software Maintenance and Support cost of revenue is expensed as incurred.
Operation Services: Operation Services cost of revenue consists primarily of labor cost for our operations team who is providing services to our customers to run their System within their warehouse. Operation Services cost of revenue also includes the cost of spare parts sold to our customers as needed to service their System. Operation Services cost of revenue is expensed as incurred.
Research and Development
Costs incurred in the research and development of our products are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs include personnel, contracted services, materials, and indirect costs involved in the design and development of new products and services, as well as depreciation expense.
Selling, General, and Administrative
Selling, general, and administrative expenses include all costs that are not directly related to satisfaction of customer contracts or research and development. Selling, general, and administrative expenses include items for our selling and administrative functions, such as sales, finance, legal, human resources, and information technology support. These functions include costs for items such as salaries and benefits and other personnel-related costs, maintenance and supplies, professional fees for external legal, accounting, and other consulting services, intangible asset amortization, and depreciation expense.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net primarily consists of dividend and interest income earned on our money market accounts and the impact of foreign currency transaction gains and losses associated with monetary assets and liabilities.
Income Taxes
We are subject to U.S. federal income taxes, in addition to state and local income taxes, with respect to our allocable share of any taxable income or loss of Symbotic Holdings. We also have foreign subsidiaries which are subject to income tax in their local jurisdictions.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023
The following tables set forth our results of operations for the periods presented and as a percentage of our total revenue for those periods. The data has been derived from the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which include, in our opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that we consider necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. The period-to-period comparison of financial results is not necessarily indicative of financial results to be achieved in future periods.

Total revenue$486,693 $359,943 $126,750 35 %
Systems revenue increased during the three months ended December 28, 2024 as compared to the three months ended December 30, 2023 due to there being 44 Systems in Deployment during the fiscal quarter ending December 28, 2024 as compared to 37 Systems in Deployment during the same quarter of fiscal 2024. The increase in Deployments is primarily due to the continued build out of our Systems included in the Walmart MAA. Pursuant to the MAA, we are installing and implementing our System within all of Walmart’s 42 regional distribution centers. We expect the MAA to continue to generate Systems revenue as we install and implement the Systems at the remaining regional distribution centers through fiscal year 2029.
The increase in Software Maintenance and Support revenue is due to 29 Operational Systems which are under Software Maintenance and Support contracts for the three months ended December 28, 2024, as compared to 15 Operational Systems which are under Software Maintenance and Support contracts for the three months ended December 30, 2023.
27

The increase in Operation Services revenue is attributable to an increase in Operational Systems where we are performing Operations Services for the three months ended December 28, 2024, as compared to the three months ended December 30, 2023. As we continue to increase the number of Operational Systems, an increase in the number of Operation Services contracts is expected.
Gross Profit
The following table sets forth our gross profit for the three months ended December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023:

Total gross profit$80,039 $64,057 $15,982 
Systems gross profit increased $18.5 million for the three months ended December 28, 2024, as compared to the three months ended December 30, 2023. The increase in Systems gross profit is primarily driven by 44 Systems in Deployment during the fiscal quarter ended December 28, 2024, as compared to 37 Systems in Deployment during the fiscal quarter ended December 30, 2023.
The increase in Software Maintenance and Support gross profit is driven by the revenue from the additional Operational Systems which are under Software Maintenance and Support contracts for the three months ended December 28, 2024, as compared to the three months ended December 30, 2023, while costs to perform our maintenance and support services remained relatively flat.
The decrease in Operation Services gross profit for the three months ended December 28, 2024, as compared to the three months ended December 30, 2023, is driven by increased cost due to additional Operation Services costs needed at certain of our customer sites.

$14,064 
Employee-related costs increased primarily as a result of our full-time and contracted employee headcount growth within our selling, general, and administrative functions. We increased our headcount primarily to support our rapid acceleration of System Deployments and business transformation. We incurred incremental costs related to building both shorter-term as well as permanent processes and infrastructure to ramp partnerships and operations.
Allocated overhead and other expenses increased primarily due to an increase in information technology related costs to support growth within our employee base and infrastructure, as well as an increase in audit, tax, and legal expenses as compared to the prior year. The increase in audit, tax, and legal expenses for the three months ended December 28, 2024, as compared to the three months ended December 30, 2023, is primarily attributable to increased professional services fees related to strategic acquisitions as well as increased professional services fees related to our internal controls remediation.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to providing financial measurements based on GAAP, we provide additional financial metrics that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, or non-GAAP financial measures. We use these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes, to measure executive compensation, and to evaluate our financial performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit, Adjusted gross profit margin, and free cash flow, as discussed below.
We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in the business, as it facilitates comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. We also believe that these non-GAAP financial measures enable investors to evaluate our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as we do. These non-GAAP financial measures may exclude expenses and gains that may be unusual in nature, infrequent, or not reflective of our ongoing operating results.
The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial measures and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.
We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of our business and a good measure of our historical operating trends. Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items that we do not consider to be part of our core operations. We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net loss excluding the following items: interest income; income taxes; depreciation and amortization of tangible and intangible assets; stock-based compensation; joint venture formation fees; business combination transaction expenses; internal control remediation; equity method investment; and other infrequent items that may arise from time to time.
The non-GAAP adjustments, and our basis for excluding them from our non-GAAP financial measures, are outlined below:
Stock-based compensation – Although stock-based compensation is an important aspect of the compensation paid to our employees, the grant date fair value varies based on the derived stock price at the time of grant, varying valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions, and the variety of award types. This makes the comparison of our current financial results to previous and future periods difficult to interpret; therefore, we believe it is useful to exclude stock-based compensation from our non-GAAP financial measures in order to highlight the performance of our business and to be consistent with the way many investors evaluate our performance and compare our operating results to peer companies.
Business combination transaction expenses – Business combination transaction expenses represent the expenses incurred related to strategic acquisition opportunities. It primarily includes investment banker fees, legal fees, professional fees for accountants, transaction fees, advisory fees, due diligence costs, certain other professional fees, and other direct costs associated with strategic activities. These amounts are impacted by the timing of the strategic acquisition opportunities which we may pursue. We exclude business combination transaction expenses from our non-GAAP financial measures to provide a useful comparison of our operating results to prior periods and to peer companies because such amounts vary significantly based on the magnitude of the transaction and do not reflect our core operations.
Equity method investment – Equity method investment represents our proportionate share of income or loss of unconsolidated variable interest entities. We exclude this from our non-GAAP financial measures to provide a useful comparison of our operating results to prior periods and to our peer companies because such amounts are not representative of our normal operating activities.
Internal control remediation – Internal control remediation costs represent professional services fees related to the Company’s efforts to remediate internal control material weaknesses. We excluded these fees from our non-GAAP financial measures to provide a useful comparison of our operating results to prior periods and to our peer companies because such amounts are not representative of our normal operating activities.
Joint venture formation fees – Joint venture formation fees represent the charges incurred associated with the formation of GreenBox, which was established on July 21, 2023. It primarily includes investment banker fees, legal fees, transaction fees, advisory fees, and certain other professional fees. We exclude joint venture formation fees from our non-GAAP financial measures to provide a useful comparison of our operating results to prior periods and peer companies because such amounts vary significantly based on the magnitude of the joint venture and do not reflect our core operations.

We consider Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted gross profit margin to be important indicators of profitability which we use in our financial and operational decision-making and evaluation of our overall operating performance. We define Adjusted gross profit, a non-GAAP financial measure, as GAAP gross profit excluding the following items: depreciation and stock-based compensation expense. We define Adjusted gross profit margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, as non-GAAP Adjusted gross profit divided by total revenue. The following table reconciles GAAP gross profit to Adjusted gross profit and gross profit margin to Adjusted gross profit margin during the periods presented (dollars in thousands):

We consider free cash flow to be an important indicator of financial liquidity, which we use in our financial and operational decision-making and evaluation of our overall operating performance. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by, or used in, operating activities less purchases of property and equipment and capitalization of internal use software development costs. The following table reconciles GAAP net cash provided by, or used in, operating activities to free cash flow during the periods presented (in thousands):

The following table shows net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, net cash provided by (used in) investing activities, and net cash provided by (used in) financing activities for the three months ended December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023:

Operating activities$205,027 $(30,150)
Investing activities$(25,349)$98,690 
Financing activities$(3,862)$158,646 
Operating Activities
Our net cash provided by (used in) operating activities consists of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, foreign currency gains and losses, loss on disposal of assets, provision for excess and obsolete inventory, and stock-based compensation, as well as changes in operating assets and liabilities. The primary changes in working capital items, such as the changes in accounts receivable and deferred revenue, result from the difference in timing of payments from our customers related to system installations and the associated costs incurred by us to fulfill the System performance obligation. This may result in an operating cash flow source or use for the period, depending on the timing of payments received as compared to the fulfillment of the System performance obligation.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $205.0 million during the three months ended December 28, 2024. Net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to our net loss of $18.5 million adjusted for non-cash items of $35.3 million, primarily consisting of $7.6 million depreciation and amortization and $26.8 million stock-based compensation, offset by cash provided by operating assets and liabilities of $188.3 million. Cash provided by operating assets and liabilities of $188.3 million was primarily driven by net working capital changes, including timing of cash payments to vendors and cash receipts from customers, an increase in inventory purchases to meet our installation timeline for our customers’ upcoming System installations in connection with the Walmart MAA and other customer contracts, as well as an increase in deferred revenue resulting from an increase in the number of active System Deployments.
Net cash used in operating activities was $30.2 million during the three months ended December 30, 2023. Net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to our net loss of $19.1 million adjusted for non-cash items of $32.8 million, primarily consisting of $3.2 million depreciation and amortization and $29.5 million stock-based compensation, in addition to cash used in operating assets and liabilities of $43.8 million. Cash used in operating assets and liabilities of $43.8 million was primarily driven by net working capital changes, including the timing of cash payments to vendors and cash receipts from customers.
Investing Activities
Our investing activities have consisted primarily of property and equipment purchases, capitalization of internal use software development costs, purchases of marketable securities, and proceeds from maturities of marketable securities.
Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities during the three months ended December 28, 2024 consisted of $7.4 million of purchased property and equipment and $18.0 million related to acquisitions of strategic investments, which includes our investment in GreenBox.
Net cash and cash equivalents provided by investing activities during the three months ended December 30, 2023 is primarily driven by $150.0 million in proceeds upon the maturity of certain U.S. Treasury securities, offset by purchases of U.S. Treasury securities of $48.3 million and purchases of property and equipment of $2.2 million.
Financing Activities
Our financing activities typically consist of payments and proceeds related to our equity incentive plans for both RSUs and ESPP, and also include proceeds from the exercise of the vested warrants issued to Walmart.
During the three months ended December 28, 2024, we paid taxes of $3.0 million related to net share settlement of RSUs and we also paid $0.9 million in distributions to or on behalf of Symbotic Holdings partners to fund all or part of their tax obligations with respect to the taxable income of Symbotic Holdings that is allocated to them.
32

During the three months ended December 30, 2023, we received cash of $158.7 million upon the gross exercise of Walmart’s vested warrant, which occurred in December 2023. No other significant financing activities occurred during the three months ended December 30, 2023.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments and Liquidity Outlook
Our cash flows from operations along with equity infusions have historically been sufficient to fund our operating activities and other cash requirements. As of December 28, 2024, we have a cash and cash equivalents balance of $903.0 million. Our cash requirements for the three months ended December 28, 2024 were primarily related to inventory purchases in order to deliver our Systems to our customers in an orderly manner in line with our installation timeline, and acquisitions of strategic investments to expand our investment profile.
Based on our present business plan, we expect our current cash and cash equivalents, working capital, and our forecasted cash flows from operations to be sufficient to meet our foreseeable cash needs for at least the next 12 months. Our foreseeable cash needs, in addition to our recurring operating expenses, include our expected capital expenditures to support expansion of our infrastructure and workforce, potential strategic acquisitions, and minimum contractual obligations. Contractual obligations are cash that we are obligated to pay as part of certain contracts that we have entered into during our course of business. Our contractual obligations consist of operating lease liabilities that are included in our consolidated balance sheet and vendor commitments associated with agreements that are legally binding. Our operating lease cash requirements have not changed materially since September 28, 2024, and are disclosed within Note 5, Leases, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The following table summarizes our current and long-term material cash requirements as of December 28, 2024 for our vendor commitments:

(in thousands)
Vendor commitments$1,265,047 $1,255,380 $9,667 $— $— 
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support research and development efforts, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the introduction of new and enhanced product and service offerings, and the cost of any future acquisitions of technology or businesses. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may be unable to raise the funds on acceptable terms, if at all.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three months ended December 28, 2024 as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of and for the year ended September 28, 2024, which are included within the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 4, 2024.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 28, 2024, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Instruction 8 to Item 303(b) of Regulation S-K.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of December 28, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level because of the existence of the material weaknesses described below. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
As of December 28, 2024, the Company did not effectively design procedures and controls over the timing of cost of revenue recognition. This resulted in the acceleration of the recognition of cost of revenue. Given that we recognize revenue on a percentage of completion basis, this resulted in the acceleration of recognition of revenue. Additionally, the Company did not effectively design and execute controls over revenue recognition related to cost overruns on certain deployments that will not be billable. These deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting constituted material weaknesses as of December 28, 2024.
Notwithstanding the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of our operations and our cash flows for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in conformity with U.S. GAAP. There can be no assurance that these material weaknesses will not result in a misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements for future periods that would not be prevented or detected.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Subject to the steps taken in connection with the remediation plan noted below, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting for the three months ended December 28, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Material Weakness Remediation Plan
Management has developed a remediation plan, which it began implementing as of the end of fiscal year 2024, that includes the following elements:
Augmented compensating controls over the receipt of goods and services, with a focus on milestone related expenses;
Implemented ERP system enhancements for goods and services receipts and enhanced documentation requirements for milestone related expenses;
Training of the employees and redesign of the structure of the organization receiving goods and services; and
Implemented compensating controls over revenue recognition for non-billable cost overruns.
Management is committed to the completion of the remediation of these material weaknesses, and, as of February 5, 2025, had implemented all of the controls described above. These controls were tested in connection with management’s evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 28, 2024. No deficiencies were
34

noted as part of that testing. We will continue to test these controls, including in connection with management’s evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of our current fiscal year. As management continues to evaluate and work to improve its internal control over financial reporting, it may determine that additional measures to address control deficiencies or modifications to the remediation plan are necessary. Therefore, management cannot assure you when these material weaknesses will be remediated, that additional actions will not be required to remediate these material weaknesses, or the costs of any such additional actions. These material weaknesses will not be determined to be remediated until the remediated controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through further testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are subject from time to time to various claims, lawsuits, and other legal and administrative proceedings (including those described below). Some of these claims, lawsuits, and other proceedings may involve highly complex issues that are subject to substantial uncertainties, and could result in damages, fines, and penalties, non-monetary sanctions, or relief. We intend to recognize provisions for claims or pending litigation when we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Due to the inherent uncertain nature of litigation, the ultimate outcome or actual cost of settlement may materially vary from estimates. For additional information, see “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Common Stock - We are party to pending litigation, and we may be subject to future litigation in the operation of our business. An adverse outcome in one or more proceedings could adversely affect our business.”
SEC Matters
We have been responding to requests for information from the SEC relating to an investigation by the SEC of alleged violations by us of Rule 21F-17, which prohibits actions to impede communications directly with the SEC staff about a possible securities law violation. We intend to continue to defend this matter vigorously and cannot predict the outcome of this investigation.
We have received a subpoena from the SEC relating to our November 2024 restatement of revenues for the year ended September 28, 2024 and certain other matters. We are cooperating with the SEC with respect to this matter.
Securities Class Actions
On August 14, 2024, a putative class action captioned Fox v. Symbotic Inc. et al., Case No. 24-cv-12090 was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by an alleged holder of our common stock. The complaint asserts claims for violations of federal securities laws against us and two of our officers on the grounds that, among other things, we made false and/or misleading statements related to our expected earnings for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. Based on these allegations, the plaintiff brings claims seeking unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees, expert fees, and other costs and relief on behalf of herself and a putative class of persons who purchased our stock between May 6, 2024 and July 29, 2024. On September 11, 2024, the court entered a stipulation staying the Company’s deadline to respond to the complaint until after a lead plaintiff has been appointed pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. As of February 3, 2025, a lead plaintiff has not been appointed. On December 20, 2024, the plaintiff filed a motion to consolidate this matter with another putative class action captioned Decker v. Symbotic Inc. et al. (further described below). As of February 3, 2025, the court has not yet ruled on the pending motion to consolidate.
On December 3, 2024, a putative class action captioned Decker v. Symbotic Inc. et al., Case No. 24-cv-12976 was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by an alleged purchaser of our common stock. The complaint asserts claims for violations of federal securities laws against us and three of our officers on the grounds that we made false and/or misleading statements related to our revenue recognition and the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on these allegations, the plaintiff brings claims seeking unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees, expert fees, and other costs and relief on behalf of himself and a putative class of persons who purchased our stock between February 8, 2024 and November 26, 2024. The parties have filed a stipulation staying the Company’s deadline to respond to the complaint until after the pending motion to consolidate is resolved and a lead plaintiff has been appointed pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.
We intend to vigorously defend these cases. If a court ultimately determines that we are liable in either or both of these cases, we may be subject to substantial damages. We cannot predict with any degree of certainty the outcome of these matters or determine the extent of any potential liabilities. We also cannot provide an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss. Any adverse outcome in these matters could expose us to substantial damages that may have a material adverse impact on our
35

operations and cash flows. Despite the potential for significant damages, we do not believe, based on currently available information, that the outcome of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, although the outcome could be material to our operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon the operating results for such period.
Shareholder Derivative Actions
On October 2, 2024, two putative shareholder derivative actions captioned Austen v. Cohen et al., 24-cv-12522 and Kukreja v. Cohen et al., 24-cv-12523 were filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by our alleged shareholders. The actions assert claims on behalf of us against certain senior officers and members of our board of directors for, among others, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and violations of federal securities laws based primarily on allegations that the defendants caused or allowed us to disseminate misleading and inaccurate information to shareholders in connection with our expected earnings for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. The actions also contend that the defendants wasted corporate assets by exposing us to the securities class action lawsuit filed on August 14, 2024. The actions seek compensatory damages, changes to corporate governance and internal procedures, restitution, costs and attorneys’ fees, and other unspecified relief. Motions to consolidate the two actions into a single matter, appoint lead plaintiffs’ counsel, and stay any obligation of the defendants to respond to the complaint based on the pendency of the related Fox v. Symbotic securities class action lawsuit remain pending.
We intend to vigorously defend these cases. If a court ultimately determines that we are liable, we may be subject to substantial damages. We cannot predict with any degree of certainty the outcome of this matter or determine the extent of any potential liabilities. We also cannot provide an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss. Any adverse outcome in this matter could expose us to substantial damages that may have a material adverse impact on our operations and cash flows. Despite the potential for significant damages, we do not believe, based on currently available information, that the outcome of this proceeding will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, although the outcome could be material to our operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon the operating results for such period.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
We are subject to various risks and uncertainties in the course of our business. For a detailed discussion of these risks, please see the section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 4, 2024 titled “Risk Factors”. Any of the matters highlighted in those risk factors could adversely affect our business, results of operation and financial condition.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
None.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
During the fiscal quarter ended December 28, 2024, no director or officer, as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act, adopted or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or a “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as defined in Regulation S-K Item 408:
Certain of our directors or officers have made elections to participate in, and are participating in, our Incentive Compensation Plan, ESPP or our defined-contribution benefit plan under the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code and have may, and may from time to time make, elections to have shares withheld to cover withholding taxes or pay the exercise price of options, which may be designed to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act or may constitute non-Rule 10b5–1 trading arrangements (as defined in Item 408(c) of Regulation S-K).

SYMBOTIC LLC Consulting Agreement This Consulting Agreement is effective as of the 31st day of October 2024 between George Dramalis, residing at 4 Priscilla Lane, Westford, MA 01866, (“Consultant”), and Symbotic LLC, a Delaware limited liability company having a place of business at 200 Research Drive, Wilmington, Massachusetts 01887(“Symbotic”). Symbotic and Consultant desire to enter into a relationship wherein Consultant will provide certain services to, and perform certain work for Symbotic. The parties hereto agree as follows: 1. Terms of Work. Consultant agrees to provide the services set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. Consultant will generally determine the methods, details and means of performing the services. Symbotic does not have the right to control the exact manner or determine the precise method of accomplishing the services. However, Consultant must observe Symbotic’s security and safety policies at all times, and Symbotic is entitled to exercise a broad, general right of supervision and control over the results of the services performed by Consultant to ensure satisfactory performance thereof. This power of supervision includes the right to inspect, stop work, make suggestions or recommendations as to the details of the work, and request modifications to the scope of the services. Symbotic will advise Consultant of the Symbotic employee or agent to whom Consultant will report. Consultant will perform the services at Symbotic’s premises or remotely, the parties mutually agree where the projects or tasks may be performed.

Consultant will submit receipts relating to any such expenses to Symbotic for reimbursement. 3. Independent Contractor. Symbotic and Consultant agree that Consultant is an independent contractor to Symbotic and not an employee, agent, joint venturer, or partner of Symbotic. Consultant acknowledges that, as an independent contractor, Consultant will not be entitled to make a claim for unemployment, worker’s compensation or disability, or receive any vacation, health, retirement or other benefits pursuant to this Agreement or Consultant’s relationship with Symbotic.

Consultant agrees that all information, whether in verbal, written, or electronic form, of a private, secret, or confidential nature concerning Symbotic’s technology, business, business relationships, or financial affairs (collectively, “Proprietary Information”) is and shall be the exclusive property of Symbotic. By way of illustration, but not limitation, Proprietary Information may include inventions, products, processes, methods, techniques, algorithms, projects, developments, plans, research data, financial data, Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF personnel data, computer software or hardware, customer and supplier lists, and contacts at or knowledge of customers or prospective customers of Symbotic. Consultant will not disclose any Proprietary Information to any person or entity other than employees or consultants of Symbotic or use the same for any purposes (other than in the performance of services under this Agreement) without written approval by an officer of Symbotic, either during or after the termination of the Consulting Period, unless and until such Proprietary Information has become public knowledge without fault by Consultant. b. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Consultant may disclose Proprietary Information to any of Consultant’s employees or contractors who have a need to know such Proprietary Information in order to accomplish the requirements of this Agreement and who are bound by contractual obligations of confidentiality and limitation of use sufficient to give effect to this Section 7. In no event shall Consultant disclose any such Proprietary Information to any competitors of Symbotic. Upon the written request of Symbotic, Consultant shall return all Propriety Information to Symbotic and shall certify that all such information has been so returned. c. Consultant agrees that all files, letters, memoranda, reports, records, data, sketches, drawings, laboratory notebooks, program listings, or other written, photographic, electronic, or other tangible material containing Proprietary Information, whether created by Consultant or others, which shall come into Consultant’s custody or possession, shall be and are the exclusive property of Symbotic to be used by Consultant only in the performance of services under this Agreement. All such materials or copies thereof and all tangible property of Symbotic in the custody or possession of Consultant shall be delivered to Symbotic, upon the earlier of (i) a request by Symbotic or (ii) termination of the Consulting Period. After such delivery, Consultant shall not retain any such materials or copies thereof or any such tangible property. d. Consultant agrees that Consultant’s obligation not to disclose or to use information and materials of the types set forth in paragraphs (a) and (c) above, and Consultant’s obligation to return materials and tangible property, set forth in paragraph (b) above, also extends to such types of information, materials, and tangible property of customers of Symbotic or suppliers to Symbotic or other third parties who may have disclosed or entrusted the same to Symbotic or to Consultant. 8. Termination. Consultant may terminate the Consulting Period at any time for any reason by giving written notice to Symbotic. Symbotic may terminate the Consulting Period only upon Consultant’s material breach of this Agreement by giving written notice to Consultant. Upon receipt of such notice from Symbotic, Consultant shall cease providing services, advise Symbotic of the extent to which Consultant has completed the services through such date, and collect and deliver to Symbotic whatever work product then exists. Symbotic shall make a final payment to Consultant of any outstanding and unreimbursed expneses through the date of such termination net 30 days. 9. Indemnification and Hold Harmless. a. Consultant agrees that any personal injury to Consultant or third parties or any property damage incurred in the course of performance of the services under this Agreement shall be the responsibility of Consultant. b. Consultant agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Symbotic and its affiliates, officers, employees and agents from and against any and all costs, losses, damages, Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF liabilities, expenses, demands, and judgments, including court costs and attorney's fees, which may arise out of Consultant's performance of the services under this Agreement, except to the extent such are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Symbotic. 10. Miscellaneous. a. Interpretation. If any restriction set forth in paragraphs 6 above is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it extends for too long a period of time or over too great a range of activities or in too broad a geographic area, it shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of time, range of activities, or geographic area as to which it may be enforceable. b. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. c. Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, between Consultant and Symbotic relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be modified, changed, or discharged in whole or in part, except by an agreement in writing signed by Consultant and Symbotic. Consultant agrees that any change or changes in the services to be performed or payment terms after the signing of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or scope of this Agreement. d. Waiver of Rights. No delay or omission by Symbotic in exercising any right under this Agreement will operate as a waiver of that or any other right. A waiver or consent given by Symbotic on any one occasion is effective only in that instance and will not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right on any other occasion. e. Equitable Remedies. The restrictions contained in this Agreement are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of Symbotic and are considered by Consultant to be reasonable for such purpose. Consultant agrees that any breach of this Agreement is likely to cause Symbotic substantial and irrevocable damage and therefore, in the event of any such breach, Consultant agrees that Symbotic, in addition to such other remedies which may be available, shall be entitled to specific performance and other injunctive relief. f.

The Consultant agrees to comply fully with the policies and procedures contained in the Policy and the Company’s related policies and procedures. Consultant understands that it has an obligation to report any suspected violations of the Policy that it become aware of to the General Counsel of the Company.

Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF 7 Exhibit B SYMBOTIC INC. INSIDER TRADING POLICY (Effective 4-12-2023) In the course of conducting the business of Symbotic Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), you may come into possession of material information that is not available to the investing public (“material, non-public information”) about the Company or other entities. You must maintain the confidentiality of material, non-public information and may not use it in connection with the purchase or sale of Company Securities (as defined below) or the securities of any other entity to which the information relates. The Company has adopted this Insider Trading Policy (this “Policy”) in order to ensure compliance with the law and to avoid the appearance of improper conduct by any Covered Persons (as defined below). We have all worked hard to establish the Company’s reputation for integrity and ethical conduct, and we are all responsible for preserving and enhancing this reputation. 1. SCOPE OF POLICY This Policy applies to (i) all directors, officers, employees, independent contractors, temporary agency workers and consultants (in each case, as applicable) of the Company (collectively referred to as the “Insiders”), (ii) the spouses or equivalents, minor children and any individuals sharing the same household with any Insider (regardless of whether such individual is a family member), (iii) any other person or entity over whom any Insider exercises substantial control over his, her, their or its securities trading decisions, and (iv) any trust or other estate in which any Insider has a substantial beneficial interest or as to which he, she or they serves as trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity (collectively, the “Covered Persons”). 2. PROHIBITION ON TRADING ON MATERIAL, NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION A. Prohibition This Policy prohibits, and the laws, rules and regulations of the United States and other countries may prohibit, any Covered Person from purchasing, selling or otherwise trading any securities of the Company, including common stock, any other common equity securities or any preferred equity, convertible or debt securities (“Company Securities”) while in possession of “inside information” about the Company. Inside information about the Company constitutes any material, non-public information about the Company. If you become aware of any inside information about the Company, you may not execute any trade in Company Securities and you should treat the information as confidential. Insiders may become temporary insiders of an entity other than the Company if such entity is an entity with which the Company has a contractual relationship or may be negotiating a transaction, or a competitor of the Company. Thus, the prohibition on trading while in possession of inside information also applies to transactions in the securities of any such other entity about which you acquire inside information in the course of your duties for the Company. Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF 8 Gifts (which includes donations) are covered by this Policy’s prohibitions on trading. A Covered Person in possession of inside information about the Company is prohibited from making a gift of Company Securities. B. Definition of Inside Information (Material, Non-Public Information) Inside information about any entity constitutes “material, non-public information” about such entity. i. Material Information Under this Policy and United States laws, rules and regulations, information is material if there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would consider it important in deciding whether to buy, hold or sell an entity’s securities, or in making another investment decision involving an entity’s securities. Any information that could reasonably be expected to affect (either negatively or positively) the price of an entity’s securities is material for these purposes. In this regard, potential market reaction or sensitivity to the information is a key consideration. Moreover, although multiple pieces of information may not be material individually, if the aggregate effect of those pieces, when they become public, would alter the “total mix” of available information and result in a reevaluation of an entity’s securities, then such pieces of information are considered material. Information may be material even if it relates to future, speculative or contingent events and even if it is significant only when considered in combination with publicly available information. Examples of potentially material information about an entity include, depending on the particular circumstances:  financial results;  earnings announcements or estimates;  changes to previously released earnings information;  significant information regarding new products, technology or similar developments;  developments regarding customers, suppliers or competitors;  cybersecurity risks and incidents, including vulnerabilities and breaches;  execution or termination of significant financing, management or customer agreements or other contracts with business entities;  information relating to a pending or proposed merger, acquisition, tender offer, joint venture or changes in assets (even if preliminary in nature);  changes in financial liquidity or solvency;  extraordinary borrowings;  changes in debt ratings;  unpublished research reports or models;  significant developments involving corporate relationships;  events regarding the entity’s securities, e.g., defaults on senior securities, calls of securities for redemption, repurchase plans, stock splits or changes in dividends or dividend policy, changes to the rights of security holders and new equity or debt offerings;  developments (whether positive or negative) in pending litigation;  significant litigation exposure due to actual or threatened litigation;  change in auditors or an auditor’s notification that the entity may no longer rely on such auditor’s audit report;  major changes in accounting methods or policies;  changes in control, in management or in the board of directors; and Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF


 
9  bankruptcies or receiverships. ii. Non-Public Information Information is considered to be non-public unless it has been adequately disclosed to the public, which means that the information must be publicly disseminated in a manner designed to reach investors generally and sufficient time must have passed for the capital markets to have absorbed the information. Information is not necessarily public merely because it has been discussed in the press, which will sometimes report rumors. You should presume that information is non-public unless you can point to its official release in at least one of the following ways: (i) regulatory filings; or (ii) issuance of press releases (including on an entity’s official website). You may not attempt to “beat the market” by trading simultaneously with, or shortly after, the official release of material information. Although there is no fixed period for how long it takes the market to absorb information, out of prudence, a person aware of material, non-public information should refrain from any trading activity for approximately two full trading days following its official release; shorter or longer waiting periods might be warranted based upon the liquidity of the security and the nature of the information. Notwithstanding these timing guidelines, it is illegal for you to trade while in possession of material, non-public information, including situations in which you are aware of major developments that have not yet been publicly announced. C. Exemptions The prohibitions in Sections 2.A and 4.C on purchases, sales or other transactions of Company Securities do not apply to:  periodic contributions to, or the acquisition of Company Securities under, an employee stock purchase plan maintained by the Company, in each case, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the applicable plan;  exercises of stock options or stock appreciation rights, or the surrender of shares to the Company in payment of the exercise price or in satisfaction of any tax withholding obligations in a manner permitted by the terms and conditions of the applicable plan, or vesting or settlement of equity-based awards, that in each case do not involve a market sale of Company Securities; or  trading in exchange-traded index securities or derivatives linked to broad-based indices that may include securities of the Company or any other entity about which you acquire inside information in the course of your duties for the Company. For purposes of this Policy, a broad-based index investment strategy would not include an index or strategy if (i) more than 10% of the index or strategy were to be represented by a single issuer or (ii) the index or strategy were to be linked to a relatively narrow group of companies. Appropriate care should be taken in investing in index securities or industry-focused funds to ascertain the nature of the index or strategy and to avoid concerns over its being too narrowly focused. Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF 10 3. PROHIBITION ON “TIPPING” MATERIAL, NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION In addition to trading while in possession of material, non-public information, it is illegal and a violation of this Policy to convey such information to another (“tipping”) if you know, have reason to believe or suspect that the person will misuse such information by trading in securities or passing such information to others who trade. This applies regardless of whether the “tippee” is related to the Covered Person or is an entity, and regardless of whether you receive any monetary benefit from the tippee. Trading on or conveying material, non-public information may also breach contractual obligations assumed by the Company to or on behalf of entities with which the Company has a contractual relationship or may be negotiating a transaction. Apart from contractual remedies (such as damages and injunctions), severe, and possibly irreparable, reputational damage to the Company can result from trading on, tipping or other improper use of material, non-public information. 4. STATEMENT OF PROCEDURES PREVENTING INSIDER TRADING The following procedures have been established, and will be maintained and enforced, by the Company to prevent insider trading. Every director, officer and designated employee is required to follow these procedures. A. Pre-Clearance of All Transactions by All Directors, Officers and Designated Employees To provide assistance in preventing inadvertent violations of applicable laws, rules and regulations and to avoid the appearance of impropriety in connection with the trading of securities, all transactions in Company Securities and securities of entities with which the Company has a contractual relationship or may be negotiating a transaction, in each case, material to the other entity, by directors, officers and designated employees listed on Schedule I.A (as may be amended from time to time) (each, a “Pre-Clearance Person”) must be pre-cleared by the Company’s General Counsel or his, her or their designee. Gifts of Company Securities or other securities subject to this Section 4.A by Pre-Clearance Persons must be pre-cleared. Transactions in exchange-traded index securities or derivatives linked to broad-based indices are exempted from this pre-clearance requirement. Pre-clearance does not relieve anyone of his, her or their responsibility under U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and other applicable laws, rules and regulations. A request for pre-clearance must be in writing (including by e-mail), or pursuant to such other method required by the Company from time to time, should be made at least two business days in advance of the proposed transaction and should include the identity of the Pre-Clearance Person, the type of proposed transaction (for example, an open market purchase, a privately negotiated sale, an option exercise, etc.), the proposed date of the transaction and the number of shares or other securities to be involved. In addition, the Pre-Clearance Person will certify to the General Counsel or his, her or their designee, that such person is not aware of any relevant material non-public information. The General Counsel or his, her or their designee shall have discretion to decide whether to clear any contemplated transaction, provided that the Chief Financial Officer shall have discretion to decide whether to clear transactions by the General Counsel, the General Counsel’s designee or persons or entities subject to this Policy as a result of their relationship with the General Counsel or designee, as the case may be. All transactions that are pre-cleared must be effected within five business days of receipt of the pre-clearance Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF 11 unless a specific exception has been granted by the General Counsel or his, her or their designee. A pre-cleared trade (or any portion of a pre-cleared trade) that has not been effected during the five business day period must be pre-cleared again prior to execution. Notwithstanding receipt of pre-clearance, if the Pre-Clearance Person becomes aware of material non-public information or becomes subject to a black-out period before the transaction is effected, the transaction may not be completed. B. Post-Transaction Notice Each Covered Person who is subject to reporting obligations under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act”) shall also notify the General Counsel (or his, her or their designee) of the occurrence of any purchase, sale or other acquisition or disposition, including any gift, of securities of the Company as soon as possible following the transaction, but in any event within one business day after the transaction. Such notification shall be in writing (including by e-mail) and should include the identity of the Covered Person, the type of transaction, the date of the transaction, the number of shares involved and the purchase or sale price. For purposes of this Section 4.B, a purchase, sale or other acquisition or disposition shall be deemed to occur at the time the person becomes irrevocably committed to it (for example, in the case of an open market purchase or sale, this occurs when the trade is executed, not when it settles). C. Black-Out Periods Additionally, no director, officer or employee listed on Schedule I.B (as may be amended from time to time) shall purchase, sell or otherwise transact in any Company Securities during the period beginning at 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on the fourteenth calendar day before the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company and ending upon the completion of the second full trading day after the public release of earnings data for such fiscal quarter or during any other trading suspension period declared by the Company, except for purchases and sales pursuant to a previously approved Rule 10b5-1(c) Trading Plan (as described below). For example, if the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter ends on September 30, the corresponding black-out period would begin at 11:59 p.m. Eastern time on September 16. For the purposes of this Policy, a “trading day” is a day on which national stock exchanges in the United States are open for trading. Exceptions to the black-out period policy may be approved only by General Counsel or his, her or their designee (or, in the case of an exception for the General Counsel, the General Counsel’s designee or persons or entities subject to this Policy as a result of their relationship with the General Counsel or the designee, as the case may be, the Chief Financial Officer, or, in the case of exceptions for directors, the Board of Directors). From time to time, the Company, through the Board of Directors or the General Counsel, may recommend that directors, officers, employees or others suspend trading in Company Securities because of developments that have not yet been disclosed to the public. Subject to the exceptions noted above, all of those affected should not trade in Company Securities while the suspension is in effect and should not disclose to others that the Company has suspended trading. The fact that there is a trading suspension may constitute material, non-public information or information that may lead to rumors in the public market and must be kept strictly confidential. Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF 12 D. Post-Termination Transactions With the exception of the pre-clearance requirement, this Policy continues to apply to transactions in Company Securities, securities of an entity with which the Company has a contractual relationship or may be negotiating a transaction, and securities of a competitor of the Company, even after termination of service to the Company. If an Insider is in possession of material, non-public information when his, her or their service terminates, that individual and related Covered Persons may not trade in Company Securities or the securities of any other entity to which that information relates until that information has become public or is no longer material. 5. ADDITIONAL PROHIBITED TRANSACTIONS Insiders and Covered Persons, as applicable, shall comply with the following policies with respect to certain transactions in Company Securities: A. Short Sales Short sales of Company Securities by Covered Persons are prohibited by this Policy. In addition, Section 16(c) of the Exchange Act absolutely prohibits Section 16 reporting persons from making sales of shares of the Company’s equity securities that the insider does not own at the time of sale, or sales of shares against which the insider does not deliver the shares within 20 days after the sale. B. Derivative Transactions Transactions in puts, calls or other derivative securities involving Company Securities by Covered Persons are prohibited by this Policy. This prohibition on derivatives trading does not preclude Covered Persons from exercising any employee stock option or stock appreciation right which may be issued to such Covered Person by the Company from time to time. However, other factors, such as general insider trading rules or this Policy, may prohibit employees from simultaneously selling shares obtained from the exercise of these options or stock appreciation rights at various times. C. Hedging Transactions No Covered Person may engage in hedging or monetization transactions or similar arrangements designed to limit the financial risk of ownership of Company Securities, such as through prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds. D. Purchases of Company Securities on Margin Purchasing on margin means borrowing from a brokerage firm, bank or other entity in order to purchase Company Securities (other than in connection with a cashless exercise of stock options through a broker under the Company’s equity plans). Margin purchases of Company Securities by Covered Persons are prohibited by this Policy. E. Pledging Company Securities to Secure Margin or Other Loans Covered Persons are prohibited from entering into margin loans, or other transactions involving the pledging of Company Securities as collateral under this Policy. Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF


 
13 F. Regulation BTR If the Company is required to impose a pension fund “blackout period” under Regulation BTR, each director and executive officer shall not, directly or indirectly purchase, sell or otherwise acquire or transfer during such blackout period any equity securities of the Company acquired in connection with his, her or their service as a director or officer of the Company, except as permitted by Regulation BTR. 6. RULE 10b5-1(c) TRADING PLANS Transactions in Company Securities made pursuant to a previously established and approved “Rule 10b-5-1(c) Trading Plan” are not subject to the pre-clearance requirements or the black- out period policy. A Rule 10b5-1(c) Trading Plan must comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act, as may be adopted or amended from time to time by the SEC. Rule 10b5-1(c) Trading Plans do not exempt individuals from complying with Section 16 short-swing profit rules or liability. Furthermore, Rule 10b5-1(c) Trading Plans that meet the requirements of applicable laws, rules and regulations only provide an “affirmative defense” in the event there is an insider trading lawsuit. A Rule 10b5-1(c) Trading Plan does not prevent someone from bringing a lawsuit. Although transactions effected under a Rule 10b5-1(c) Trading Plan will not require further pre- clearance at the time of the trade, any transaction (including the quantity and price) made pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1(c) Trading Plan of a Section 16 reporting person must be reported to the Company promptly on the day of each trade to permit the Company’s filing coordinator to assist in the preparation and filing of a required Form 4. However, the ultimate responsibility and liability for timely filing remains with the Section 16 reporting person. The Company reserves the right from time to time to suspend, discontinue or otherwise prohibit any transaction in Company Securities, even pursuant to a previously approved Rule 10b5-1(c) Trading Plan, if the General Counsel or the Board of Directors, in his, her, their or its discretion, determines that such suspension, discontinuation or other prohibition is in the best interests of the Company. Any Trading Plan submitted for approval hereunder should explicitly acknowledge the Company’s right to prohibit transactions in Company Securities. Failure to discontinue purchases and sales as directed shall constitute a violation of the terms of this Section 6 and result in a loss of the exemption set forth herein. 7. SAFEGUARDING CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION If material information relating to the Company or its business has not been disclosed to the general public, such information must be kept in strict confidence and should be discussed only with persons who have a “need to know” of the information for a legitimate business purpose, except when disclosure is authorized, legally mandated or made in cooperation with a government investigation. The utmost care and circumspection must be exercised at all times in order to protect the Company’s confidential information. The following practices should be followed to help prevent the misuse of confidential information:  avoid discussing confidential information in places where you may be overheard by people who do not have a valid need to know of such information, such as on elevators, in restaurants and on trains, buses, taxis, rideshares or airplanes; Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF 14  do not discuss confidential information with relatives or social acquaintances;  do not give your computer IDs and passwords to any other person;  password protect computers and log off when they are not in use and use privacy screens;  always put confidential documents away when not in use and, based upon the sensitivity of the material, keep such documents in a locked desk or office;  do not leave documents containing confidential information where they may be seen by persons who do not have a need to know of the content of the documents;  comply with the specific terms of any confidentiality agreements of which you are aware;  upon termination of your employment, engagement or assignment with the Company you must return to the Company all physical (including electronic) copies of confidential information as well as all other material embodied in any physical or electronic form that is based on or derived from such information, without retaining any copies;  you may not bring the confidential information of any former employer or other entity for which you were a contractor, advisor, consultant or similar role to the Company; and  you must always respect the confidential information of third parties and never unlawfully use such information on behalf of the Company or otherwise. 8. RESPONDING TO REQUESTS FOR INFORMATION You may find yourself the recipient of questions concerning various activities of the Company. Such inquiries can come from the media, securities analysts and others regarding the Company’s business, rumors, trading activity, current and future prospects and plans, acquisition or divestiture activities and other similar important information. Under no circumstances should you attempt to handle these inquiries without prior authorization. Only executive officers of the Company are authorized to answer questions about or disclose information concerning the Company to the media or public.  Refer requests for information regarding the Company from the financial community, such as securities analysts, brokers or investors, to the Chief Financial Officer or Vice President, Investor Relations & Corporate Development.  Refer requests for information regarding the Company from the media or press to the Director, Marketing.  Refer requests for information from the SEC or other regulators to the General Counsel. 9. REPORTING VIOLATIONS/SEEKING ADVICE You should refer suspected violations of this Policy or any policy applicable to the Company to the General Counsel. In addition, if you:  receive material, non-public information that you are not authorized to receive or that you do not legitimately need to know to perform your employment, engagement or assignment responsibilities; or  receive confidential information and are unsure if it is within the definition of material, non-public information or whether its release might be contrary to a fiduciary or other duty or obligation. In each case, you should not share such information with anyone or transact in any Company Securities or any other relevant securities based on such information. When in doubt, you should assume that such information is material, non-public information. To seek advice about Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF 15 what to do under those circumstances, you should contact the General Counsel. Consulting your colleagues can have the effect of exacerbating the problem. Containment of the information, until the legal implications of possessing it are determined, is critical. 10. PENALTIES FOR VIOLATIONS OF THE INSIDER TRADING POLICY AND LAWS In the United States and many other countries, the personal consequences to you of illegally trading securities using material, non-public information and/or tipping can be severe. Certain securities laws provide that an individual is subject to possible imprisonment and significant fines. Such penalties can be applied even to persons who do not personally profit from their activities. These laws apply to all employees—not just directors, officers, investment bankers and lawyers. The Company will not be responsible for the legal costs and expenses of any Covered Person who violates any insider trading laws. Subject to applicable law, Covered Persons who violate this Policy may also be subject to discipline by the Company, up to and including termination of employment, engagement or assignment, even if the country or jurisdiction where the conduct took place does not regard it as illegal and such conduct by Covered Persons may be taken into account for determination of the compensation and bonuses of such Covered Person, if an Insider, or of the Insider which makes such person a Covered Person otherwise. If you are located or engaged in dealings outside the United States, be aware that laws regarding insider trading and similar offenses differ from country to country. Covered Persons must abide by the laws in the country where located. However, you are required to comply with this Policy even if local law is less restrictive. If a local law conflicts with this Policy, you must consult the General Counsel. 11. COMPANY ASSISTANCE AND EDUCATION A. Education The Company shall take reasonable steps designed to ensure that all directors, officers and employees of the Company are educated about, and periodically reminded of, U.S. federal securities law restrictions and Company policies regarding insider trading. B. Assistance The Company shall provide reasonable assistance to all directors and executive officers, as requested by such directors and executive officers, in connection with the filing of Forms 3, 4 and 5 under Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

This Policy applies to:  All Symbotic employees, temporary workers, independent contractors, vendors, agents, and other users of Symbotic’s internal technology and information resources (“you” or “users” as the context requires).  Symbotic’s computer and telecommunications network, including but not limited to fax machines, host computers, file servers, application servers, communication servers, mail servers, scanners, fax servers, Web servers, workstations, stand-alone computers, printers, laptops, smartphones, desk phones, conference phones, video conferencing systems, portable/handheld telecommunications devices (i.e., cell phones, pagers, and head set systems), cameras, software, applications, data files, all internal and external computer, communications and collaboration networks (such as intranet systems, extranets, Wireless network, Internet, FTP, file sharing services, commercial online services, value added networks, Instant Messaging/Chat, social media sites, and e-mail systems), and portable file storage devices (USB, hard drives, SD cards) accessed directly or indirectly from Symbotic’s computer network (collectively referred to as the “Resources”). All physical, virtual or cloud-based Resources are covered by this Policy. This Policy also applies to your use of (1) non- Symbotic owned devices for which you receive reimbursement of service or usage charges and (2) non-Symbotic or personally owned devices that connect to Symbotic’s networks or Resources described above (e.g., personal devices that access Symbotic’s wireless network and personal smartphones or tablet devices that access your Symbotic email account).  All information that Symbotic holds, stores or accesses that is not generally known to the public, whether the information is owned by Symbotic or its customers, business partners, employees or other people or entities with which Symbotic does business, including but not limited to trade secrets, proprietary information and all other information, documents, and materials, owned, licensed, developed, or possessed by Symbotic or any employee or agent of Symbotic, whether tangible or intangible, relating in any way to Symbotic’s research and development, customers, prospective customers, employee lists, business plans, business relationships, products or processes, costs or profit information or data from which that information could be derived, business methods, databases, computer programs and non-public and sensitive information about Symbotic’s employees, in all cases whether or not marked as “confidential” or “proprietary” (collectively referred to as “Proprietary Information”). Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF


 
You are expected and required to use Symbotic’s Resources and Proprietary Information responsibly and in a professional, ethical and lawful manner and to ensure the security of Symbotic’s Resources and Proprietary Information. You are also expected and required to assist Symbotic in investigating any potential or actual violations of this Policy. A violation of this Policy may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination, and potential civil and criminal liability. Use of Symbotic’s Resources is a privilege that may be limited or revoked at any time, with or without cause and without notice, in Symbotic’s sole discretion. II. USE OF RESOURCES. The Resources constitute a valuable business asset of Symbotic and may be used only for approved purposes relating to Symbotic’s business. You are permitted access to the Resources to assist you in the performance of your job. Your occasional, limited and appropriate personal use of the Resources is permitted so long as the use does not: (1) interfere with your work performance, (2) interfere with any other User’s work performance, (3) adversely impact the operation of the Resources, (4) result in any non-trivial expense to Symbotic, (5) violate any law or regulation of any jurisdiction, or (6) violate any other provision of this Policy or any other policy, guideline or standard of Symbotic. III. NO EXPECTATION OF PRIVACY Anything created on, transmitted by or stored on the Resources may be reviewed by others, and deleted files may be recovered. Symbotic may monitor and record your use of the Resources at any time. You have no expectation or right of privacy of any kind related to your use of the Resources. You expressly consent to the access, monitoring and recording of your use of the Resources and waive any right of privacy or similar right in your use of the Resources. IV. OWNERSHIP OF INFORMATION ASSETS AND RESOURCES Symbotic exclusively owns all information and communications created, received, transmitted from or stored on or passed through the Resources, including but not limited to all of your and other Users’ documents, files, programs, e-mails, and instant messages, as well as the Resources themselves. V. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES a. Inappropriate or Unlawful Material. You are prohibited from sending by e-mail or other form of electronic communication, downloading from the Internet or other online service, or displaying on, viewing on or storing in the Resources any materials that are fraudulent, sexually explicit, profane, obscene, intimidating, defamatory, or otherwise inappropriate, including any inappropriate comments that would reasonably offend someone on the basis of race, age, sex, sexual orientation, religion, national origin, veteran status or disability. You are also prohibited from using the Resources to distribute or collect responses to chain letters or pyramid schemes. If you become aware of or receive any of the materials described in this paragraph, you must immediately report the incident to your supervisor or Symbotic’s Human Resources (“HR”) department. Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF b. Use for Personal or Third-Party Benefit. You may not use the Resources for your personal financial gain or for the benefit of any third party, including but not limited to the sale of any non-Symbotic products or services except as specifically authorized. c. Destructive Activities. You are prohibited from using the Resources to create, store or distribute any form of malicious or manipulative software (such as viruses, worms or other destructive code); to breach or circumvent the security of any host, network or account; or to engage in activities, such as network sniffing, pinged floods, packet spoofing, denial of service or forged routing information, that intentionally or maliciously disrupt network communication. d. Automatic Forwarding of E-mails to Non-Symbotic Accounts. You are not permitted to set up automatic forwarding rules to non-Symbotic Accounts. e. Sending Proprietary or Customer Data to a Personal Email Account. Sending or forwarding Proprietary Information or customer data to a personal email account is strictly prohibited unless expressly authorized by Symbotic’s Legal or Information Technology (“IT”) departments. Examples of personal email accounts can include JohnDoe@gmail.com or JohnDoe@verizon.net. In cases where you may be interested in sending reading materials to a New Hire prior to his/her start date, check in with HR or IT prior to sending the material to the New Hire’s personal email address. f. File synching on Non Approved Platforms. Symbotic subscribes to a File sharing/synching service. This service is available to all team members, and can be accessed from work or home. The use of other similar but unapproved services, such as Dropbox or Carbonite, or of other related file sharing or synching systems is not allowed unless authorized by the Legal and IT Departments. VI. USE OF E- MAIL AND OTHER ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS a. Electronic Communications – In General. When you send an e-mail or other electronic communication from your Symbotic account, you are representing Symbotic to the outside world. Your communications must therefore be of the highest professional caliber, reflecting dignity and respect. b. Altering Attribution Information. Electronic forgery is prohibited. You may never use another person’s email account to misrepresent the identity of the sender of any message or alter the “From” line or other attribution of origin information in a Symbotic e-mail. You may, however, send e-mails on behalf of another User who has specifically granted you the right to do so. c. Electronic Communications of Proprietary Information. As described in more detail below in Section VII, you must at all times take the utmost care to ensure that Proprietary Information is not disclosed to unauthorized individuals or entities. E-mail and other electronic communications require particular attention because they can easily be intercepted by or forwarded to individuals and entities other than the intended recipients. Therefore, you must use extra care when sending Proprietary Information electronically. For example, consider whether it is necessary to transmit the Proprietary Information electronically at all, or whether a fax or hard copy mailing achieves the same goal as an electronic communication. If an electronic communication is necessary, then you must do everything reasonable to ensure Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF the security of the Proprietary Information, including (1) ensuring that the message is clearly labeled in the subject line and the body of the message as “Confidential,” “Proprietary” or another similar designation; (2) keeping the address list for the message to a minimum; (3) ensuring all recipients are aware of the obligation to maintain the confidentiality of the information contained in the message; (4) encrypting the message, if possible; and (5) ensuring that the transmission of information is in accordance with applicable Symbotic policies, guidelines or standards, including this Policy and applicable law. d. Electronic Communications of Personal Information. Personal Information, which is defined in Section XIX below, and financial information must be protected from unauthorized access. Storage and transmission of such data are often subject to local and federal laws. Similar to Proprietary Information, you should consider whether it is necessary to transmit the Personal Information using Symbotic Resources. Transmission of such data will require encryption and/or password protected access to all systems involved. If electronic transmission of Personal Information is necessary, then you must ensure that the system housing the Personal Information is encrypted, the transmission of the message is encrypted, and any files used in the transmission of Personal Information is password protected and/or encrypted. In the event a fax machine is used, special care must be made to delete any stored log of transmitted files, and physical copies be removed from the fax machine area and stored in a secured physical location. VII. PROTECTION OF SYMBOTIC’ S RESOURCES AND PROPRIETORY INFORMATION Symbotic’s Resources and Proprietary Information are valuable assets of the company, and you are responsible for taking steps to ensure that these assets are not lost, damaged, or compromised. a. Disclosure of Proprietary Information – In General. It is each User’s responsibility to ensure that Proprietary Information is not disclosed to unauthorized individuals and entities, both within and outside the company. This includes but is not limited to complying with the following: (1) Do not disclose Proprietary Information to another party unless the party has signed a non-disclosure agreement. Even with a non-disclosure agreement in place, you should disclose to the party only the Proprietary Information that is strictly necessary for Symbotic’s business or relationship with that party. (2) Do not send Symbotic’s software to another party, or provide another party with access or download rights to Symbotic’s software, unless the party has signed a license agreement, software evaluation agreement or other appropriately protective agreement approved by the Legal department. (3) Do not upload or transmit Proprietary Information via the Internet, to your personally owned computer or to any other third party system except for legitimate business-related purposes. (4) Do not allow Symbotic employees or contractors to access the source code to Symbotic’s software unless they absolutely need it to perform their duties for Symbotic; and never disclose Symbotic’s source code to anyone outside of the Symbotic organization. Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF (5) In some circumstances, it is illegal to share certain kinds of information with certain parties. For example, sharing Symbotic’s pricing or customer information with competitors may be considered a violation of United States and European antitrust laws. In general, it is against the law to collude with a competitor to set pricing in the marketplace or to divide customers or territories, and even a casual conversation with a competitor in which these kinds of information are shared could be construed as participating in illegal anti-competitive activities. b. Third Parties’ Proprietary Information. Symbotic often receives Proprietary Information belonging to its customers, business partners and other third parties. You may never disclose a third party’s Proprietary Information to another party without the consent of the owner of the Proprietary Information. Third party Proprietary Information should be maintained in a secure location, segregated from Symbotic’s information whenever possible to avoid inadvertent disclosure, and kept only as long as necessary to fulfill Symbotic’s obligations and comply with applicable laws. As soon as Symbotic is no longer required to keep a third party’s Proprietary Information, the Proprietary Information should be returned to the third party or destroyed in accordance with Symbotic’s non-disclosure agreement with the third party. c. Access to Resources. (1) Access Control. Symbotic’s HR and IT departments determine who is granted access to the Resources and how and when that access is terminated, including ensuring that each User’s access is terminated immediately after the User’s relationship with Symbotic ends. (2) Access within the Firewall. You may use and access Symbotic’s network from within Symbotic’s firewall so long as the system accessing the network is a Symbotic- owned system, or a special exception is granted to use a personal device; the system has current and functional anti-virus software and follows the IT department’s policies for securing personal computer resources; the system is patched in accordance with the IT department’s policies; and the system has not had its Symbotic-installed system fundamentally altered such that it poses a risk to any other computer system. The IT department has the authority to determine, in its sole discretion, compliance with these requirements, may require that all files and folders on the system accessing the Symbotic network be scanned, and may deny access or remove any computer from the network. At no time is a non-Symbotic computer permitted onto Symbotic’s core network without express permission from the IT department. Plugging in an external router or switch to the Symbotic network can bring down Symbotic’s network, and is not allowed without the approval of IT. (3) VPN Access. When accessing Resources from outside Symbotic’s firewall, you must use a method approved by the IT department, such as a virtual private network (“VPN”) with a VPN client approved by the IT department. Machines accessing Symbotic’s network, whether or not owned by Symbotic, are de facto extensions of the Symbotic network and thus are subject to this Policy and the IT department’s policies for securing computer resources. Dual (split) tunneling is not permitted; only one network connection is allowed via VPN. Only the IT department has authority to provide VPN or other outside-the-firewall access; no other department may implement remote access services. (4) Wireless Access. All wireless access points and base stations connected to Symbotic’s network must be registered with and approved by the IT department. All local Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF


 
area network (LAN) wireless access must use vendor products and security configurations approved by the IT department, including but not limited to a VPN configured to drop all unauthenticated and unencrypted traffic. The SSID must be configured in a manner that is consistent with the IT department’s naming conventions, and all SSID names must be approved by the IT department. (5) Use of IP Addresses. If you require an IP address range to support a Symbotic’s system, you will need to work with IT to define the appropriate IP address range before using an available IP address range. d. Passwords. You are encouraged to change your passwords to access Resources at least once every 90 days and to choose passwords that meet the standards of complexity suggested by the IT department. You must change default passwords in new applications and hardware (e.g., laptop, smartphones, and tablet devices) upon their installation for use in or with the Resources. You are responsible for safeguarding your passwords for access to the Resources and should avoid printing them, writing them down, storing them on-line, or giving them to others. You are responsible for all transactions made using your passwords. You may not access any Resources using another User’s password or account. IT’s current standards of complexity for network passwords are as follows:  Passwords should contain at least eight characters.  A password should not be reused until there have been at least twenty-four password change cycles.  Passwords must be alphanumeric and should contain at least three out of the following four character types: o Upper case alphabetical character o Lower case alphabetical character o Numeric character o Symbol or punctuation (for example, @, #, *, etc.) Additionally, an account will be locked after 5 failed login attempts. Once an account is locked, it can not be reactivated for 15 minutes. This lockout duration is set up to buffer an account from being accessed through a brute force password hacking method. e. Anti-Virus Protection. Anti-virus software is installed on all Symbotic employee workstations running Microsoft or Mac operating systems. You are prohibited from turning off or disabling any Symbotic-installed anti-virus software without express permission from the IT department. Guests, contractors and remote Users connecting to Symbotic’s network, via a VPN or otherwise, are required to run updated anti-virus software on their systems, and the IT department reserves the right to review such systems to ensure compliance with this requirement. f. Unattended System Control. All systems with a local copy of email, or Proprietary Information or customer data will need to be secured through a password secured automatic lock-out feature when the system is not in use. Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF g. Mobile Devices that Access Symbotic Email. All mobile devices that access or download from Symbotic’s email servers must be password protected. Each device will need to be protected with a passcode at least 4 characters long, Auto-Lock turned on, and Data Wipe after failed login attempts also turned on. Any mobile device that accesses Symbotic’s email system will be wiped if it is reported to be lost, or if employment for an individual ends without the device being disconnected from Symbotic’s email network. h. Building Security. Symbotic’s Facilities, HR and IT departments are responsible for issuing keys and access cards to Users for Symbotic’s offices and for collecting them when a User’s relationship with Symbotic terminates. Your key and access card are for your use only; do not give or lend them to anyone. Do not allow unauthorized people to enter or move around Symbotic’s offices unattended; all guests and visitors must be signed in according to each individual office location’s policies and procedures. Report all lost card keys so that we can disable the missing key and issue you a new key card. VIII. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND LICENSES a. Compliance with Laws and Licenses – In General. In your use of the Resources, you must comply with all software licenses and all state, federal and international laws, including but not limited to export laws and restrictions. You also must comply with all other Symbotic policies and procedures in your use of the Resources, in addition to this Policy. b. Unlicensed Use. You must comply with all licenses associated with all software and other applications that you use on the Resources. Unless you have express permission from the IT department, you are prohibited from sharing user names, passwords and other log- in information or copies of third party software with other Users or third parties. If you have an evaluation copy of an application, then you may use the application only for limited evaluation purposes, as permitted by the evaluation license, and must delete the application from the Resources when the evaluation period has ended. If there is any doubt about whether you are authorized to install, log into or use an application on the Resources, check with the IT department. Both hardware and software related purchases, especially software purchases and renewals, need to be reviewed and approved by the IT department before the transaction is finalized. Any contract or expenditure that is not vetted through this process may result in either the vendor not being paid, or you not being reimbursed. c. Illegal Use of Copyrighted Material. You are prohibited from using, installing, downloading, copying or distributing on or from the Resources any copyrighted, trademarked or patented material of third parties except as permitted by legal principles of “fair use” or as authorized by a contract or license that an authorized manager has approved and executed. This includes but is not limited to “pirated” or other software products for which Symbotic or you do not have an active license, digitization and distribution of photographs from magazines, books, or other copyrighted sources, and copyrighted music, such as MP3 music files. If you have any questions about what copying is permitted, immediately contact the IT or Legal departments. IX. PROTECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION. Under Massachusetts law, “personal information” is a person’s last name and either first initial or first name, coupled with any of the following: (1) Social Security Number, (2) driver’s license number, (3) credit card number, or (4) account or debit card number with the password or code permitting access. Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF You may not save any personal information to your laptop or desktop computer or to any CD, memory stick, portable or removable hard disk or other removable data storage medium unless the personal information is encrypted. In addition, if you become aware of any actual or potential unauthorized access or security breach involving personal information – for example, if you were registering for an Symbotic event with a credit card and noticed that you could view other registrants’ credit card information in addition to your own, or if you were to find a list of Symbotic employees and their Social Security Numbers lying unshredded in a trash bin – then notify the Legal and IT departments immediately. Symbotic is required by law to notify individuals of any unauthorized access or security breach involving the individuals’ personal information. X. AMENDMENT OF THIS POLICY. Symbotic may modify or terminate this Policy at any time. Modifications to this Policy become effective when the revised Policy is communicated to everyone. Docusign Envelope ID: FD90F766-54D7-4AB6-A207-111E47EF9EAF EXHIBIT D: 3rd Party Symbotic Network Access Request and Usage Agreement Protecting Symbotic information and Symbotic Information Systems Every vendor, consultant, or partner with access to the Symbotic network plays a critical role in protecting Symbotic information assets just as our employees do.

Organization and Operations Organization and Operations
SVF Investment Corp. 3, formerly known as SVF Investment III Corp., (“SVF 3” and, after the transactions described below, “Symbotic” or the “Company”) was a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on December 11, 2020. Warehouse Technologies LLC (“Legacy Warehouse”) was formed in December 2006 to make investments in companies that develop new technologies to improve operating efficiencies in modern warehouses. Symbotic LLC, a technology company that develops and commercializes innovative technologies for use within warehouse operations, and Symbotic Group Holdings, ULC were wholly owned subsidiaries of Legacy Warehouse. On December 12, 2021, (i) SVF 3 entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Legacy Warehouse, Symbotic Holdings LLC (“Symbotic Holdings”), and Saturn Acquisition (DE) Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of SVF 3 (“Merger Sub”) and (ii) Legacy Warehouse entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Company Merger Agreement”) with Symbotic Holdings.
On June 7, 2022, as contemplated by the Company Merger Agreement, Legacy Warehouse merged with and into Symbotic Holdings (the “Company Reorganization”), with Symbotic Holdings surviving the merger (“Interim Symbotic”). Immediately following such merger, on June 7, 2022, as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, SVF 3 transferred by way of continuation from the Cayman Islands and domesticated as a Delaware corporation, changing its name to “Symbotic Inc.” Immediately following the domestication of SVF 3, on June 7, 2022, as contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Interim Symbotic (the “Merger” and, together with the Company Reorganization, the “Business Combination”), with Interim Symbotic surviving the merger as a subsidiary of Symbotic (“New Symbotic Holdings”).
Symbotic is an automation technology company established to develop technologies to improve operating efficiencies in modern warehouses. The Company’s vision is to make the supply chain work better for everyone. The Company does this by developing innovative, comprehensive technology solutions that dramatically improve supply chain operations. The Company currently automates the processing of pallets and cases in large warehouses for some of the largest retail companies in the world. Its systems enhance operations at the front end of the supply chain, and therefore benefit all supply partners further down the chain, irrespective of fulfillment strategy.
The Company’s headquarters are located in Wilmington, Massachusetts, and its Canadian headquarters are located in Montreal, Quebec.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed in, or omitted from, these interim financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto as of and for the year ended September 28, 2024, which are included within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 4, 2024. The September 28, 2024 consolidated balance sheet included herein is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and majority-owned subsidiaries and reflect all adjustments (consisting solely of normal, recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include 100% of the accounts of wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and the ownership interest of the minority investor is recorded as a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year.
The Company operates and reports using a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the last Saturday of September of each calendar year. Each of the Company’s fiscal quarters end on the last Saturday of the third month of each quarter.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and the amounts disclosed in the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from management’s estimates, judgments, and assumptions. Significant estimates, judgments, and assumptions used in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, those related to revenue, useful lives and realizability of long-lived assets, accounting for income taxes and related valuation allowances, and stock-based compensation. Estimates are periodically reviewed in light of changes in circumstances, facts, and experience.
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of and for the year ended September 28, 2024. There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies during the three month period ended December 28, 2024.
Presentation of Restricted Cash
Restricted cash primarily consists of collateral required for a credit card processing program and a U.S. customs bond. The short-term or long-term classification is determined in accordance with the required amount of time the cash is to be held as collateral, which is short-term for less than 12 months, and long-term for greater than 12 months from the balance sheet date. The following table summarizes the end-of-period cash and cash equivalents from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and the total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash as presented on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows (in thousands):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 enhances segment reporting under Topic 280 by expanding the breadth and frequency of segment disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of significant expenses that are regularly provided to an entity’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included in the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit or loss. When applying this disclosure requirement, an entity identifies the segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM or easily computable from information that is regularly provided to the CODM. Entities are also required to disclose other segment items, i.e., the difference between reported segment revenue less the significant segment expenses and the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 also clarifies that single reportable segment entities are subject to Topic 280 in its entirety. ASU 2023-07 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 should be adopted retrospectively unless impracticable. Early adoption is permitted. The disclosures required by ASU 2023-07 are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires public entities, on an annual basis, to provide: a tabular rate reconciliation (using both percentages and reporting currency amounts) of (1) the reported income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations, to (2) the product of the income (or loss) from continuing operations before income taxes and the applicable statutory federal (national) income tax rate of the jurisdiction (country) of domicile using specific categories, and separate disclosure for any reconciling items within certain categories that are equal to or greater than a specified quantitative threshold. For each annual period presented, ASU 2023-09 also requires all reporting entities to disclose the year-to-date amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal (national), state, and foreign. It also requires additional disaggregated information on income taxes paid (net of refunds received) to an individual jurisdiction equal to or greater than 5% of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). ASU 2023-09 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. ASU 2023-09 is to be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) - Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires additional disclosure about specified categories of expenses included in relevant expense captions presented on the income statement. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2024-03 will have on its disclosures.
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs issued by the FASB. There are no other accounting pronouncements which have been issued but are not yet effective that would have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements when adopted.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue Revenue
The Company generates revenue through its design and installation of supply chain automation systems (the “System”) to automate customers’ depalletizing, storage, selection, and palletization warehousing processes. The System has both a hardware component and an essential software component that enables the System to be programmed to operate within specific customer environments. The Company enters into contracts with customers that can include various combinations of services to design and install the System. These services are generally distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. As a result, each customer contract may contain multiple performance obligations. The Company determines whether performance obligations are distinct based on whether the customer can benefit from the product or service on its own or together with other resources that are readily available and whether the Company’s commitment to provide the services to the customer is separately identifiable from other obligations in the contract.
The Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control of promised goods or services in a contract with a customer, generally as title and risk of loss pass to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. Revenue is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur and when collection is considered probable. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined its contracts do not include a significant financing component. Taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities, are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are included in revenue and the related costs are included in cost of revenue when incurred. The Company presents amounts collected from customers for sales and other taxes net of the related amounts remitted.
The design, assembly, and installation of a System includes substantive customer-specified acceptance criteria that allow the customer to accept or reject Systems that do not meet the customer’s specifications. When the Company cannot objectively determine that acceptance criteria will be met upon contract inception, revenue relating to Systems is deferred and recognized at a point in time upon final acceptance from the customer. If acceptance can be reasonably certain upon contract inception, revenue is recognized over time based on an input method, using a cost-to-cost measure of progress. Under this method, revenue is recorded based on the ratio of costs incurred over total estimated contract costs. This method provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of the System to the customer because the costs incurred represent the Company’s inputs towards satisfying the performance obligation.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company provides disaggregation of revenue based on product and service type on the consolidated statements of operations as it believes these categories best depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
Contract Balances
The following table provides information about accounts receivable, unbilled accounts receivable, and contract liabilities from contracts with customers (in thousands):
December 28, 2024September 28, 2024
Accounts receivable$134,391 $201,548 
Unbilled accounts receivable$223,349 $218,233 
Contract liabilities$863,886 $805,547 
The change in the opening and closing balances of the Company’s accounts receivable primarily results from the increase in customer System implementations in the current fiscal year as well as the timing of when customer payments are due. The change in the opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract liabilities primarily results from the timing difference between the Company’s performance and customer payments. The Company’s performance obligations are typically satisfied over time as work is performed. Payment from customers can vary, and is often received in advance of satisfaction of the performance obligations, resulting in a contract liability balance. During the three months ended December 28, 2024, the Company recognized $101.1 million of the contract liability balance at September 28, 2024, as revenue upon transfer of the products or services to customers. During the three months ended December 30, 2023, the Company recognized $249.7 million of the contract liability balance at September 30, 2023, as revenue upon transfer of the products or services to customers.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations not delivered, or partially undelivered, at the end of the reporting period. Remaining performance obligations include deferred revenue plus unbilled amounts not yet recorded in deferred revenue. Remaining performance obligation estimates are subject to change and are affected by several factors, including terminations, changes in scope of contracts, periodic revalidation, adjustments for revenue that have not materialized, adjustments for inflation, and adjustments for currency. The definition of remaining performance obligations excludes those contracts that provide the customer with the right to cancel or terminate the contract without incurring a substantial penalty as well as operation services contracts. For contracts with a duration of greater than one year, the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied as of December 28, 2024 was $22.4 billion, which is primarily comprised of undelivered or partially undelivered Systems under contract, and which a substantial majority relates to undelivered or partially undelivered Systems in connection with the Master Automation Agreement (“MAA”) with Walmart Inc. (“Walmart”) to implement Systems in all of Walmart’s 42 regional distribution centers, and in connection with the Commercial Agreement with GreenBox (as defined below) under which Symbotic will implement its System into GreenBox distribution center locations. As the Company accounts for GreenBox as an equity method investment, the remaining performance obligation includes the Company’s proportionate share of unconsolidated variable interest entity contracts. The Company expects to recognize approximately 11% of its remaining performance obligations as revenue in the next 12 months, approximately 57% of its remaining performance obligations as revenue within the next 13 to 60 months, and the remaining thereafter, which is dependent on the timing of System installation timelines. The Company does not disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of one year or less.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
Income Taxes Income Taxes
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income taxes, in addition to state and local income taxes, with respect to its allocable share of any taxable income or loss of Symbotic Holdings, LLC. The remaining share of Symbotic Holdings income or loss is non-taxable to the Company and is not reflected in current or deferred income taxes. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries are subject to income tax in their local jurisdictions.
For the three months ended December 28, 2024, the Company recorded a current income tax expense of $0.2 million, and for the three months ended December 30, 2023, the Company recorded a current income tax expense of $0.2 million. The Company incurred a pre-tax loss for the three month period and recorded a full valuation allowance against its domestic deferred tax assets and a partial valuation allowance against its foreign deferred tax assets. The Company incurs state tax expense by Symbotic at the flow-through entity level and foreign tax expense at its foreign subsidiaries. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 28, 2024 is (0.8)% and differs from the federal statutory income tax rate primarily due
to the flow-through entity level taxes and the effect of the valuation allowance against its net federal, state, and foreign deferred income taxes.
As of December 28, 2024, the Company continues to conclude that the negative evidence regarding its ability to realize its deferred tax assets outweighs the positive evidence, and the Company has a full valuation allowance against its domestic federal and state net deferred tax assets and a partial valuation allowance against its foreign net deferred tax assets. The Company has a history of cumulative pre-tax losses for the three previous fiscal years which it believes represents significant negative evidence in evaluating whether its deferred tax assets are realizable. Given these cumulative losses, lack of forecast history, the competitive environment, and uncertainty of general economic conditions, the Company does not believe it can rely on projections of future taxable income exclusive of reversing taxable temporary differences to support the realization of its deferred tax assets. In upcoming quarters, the Company will continue to evaluate both the positive and negative evidence surrounding its ability to realize its deferred tax assets.
Tax Receivable Agreement
As of December 28, 2024 future payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”) with respect to the purchase of Symbotic Holdings units which occurred as part of or subsequent to the Business Combination are expected to be $409.1 million. Payments made under the TRA represent payments that otherwise would have been made to taxing authorities in the absence of attributes obtained by the Company as a result of exchanges by its pre-IPO members. Such amounts will be paid only when a cash tax savings is realized as a result of attributes subject to the TRA. That is, payments under the TRA are only expected to be made in periods following the filing of a tax return in which the Company is able to utilize certain tax benefits to reduce its cash taxes paid to a taxing authority. The impact of any changes in the projected obligations under the TRA as a result of changes in the geographic mix of the Company’s earnings, changes in tax legislation and tax rates or other factors that may impact the Company’s tax savings will be reflected in income or loss before taxes on the consolidated statement of operations in the period in which the change occurs. As of December 28, 2024, no TRA liability was recorded based on current projections of future taxable income taking into consideration the Company’s full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measures Fair Value Measures
The Company measures certain financial assets at fair value. Fair value is determined based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, as determined by either the principal market or the most advantageous market. Inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values are classified based on a three-level hierarchy, as follows:
Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for an identical asset or liability in an active market
Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for a similar asset or liability in an active market or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability
Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability
The following table presents the Company’s financial assets measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis using the above input categories as of December 28, 2024 and September 28, 2024 (in thousands):

The Company had no liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 28, 2024 and September 28, 2024.
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The fair value of the Company’s investments in certain money market funds is their face value and such instruments are classified as Level 1 and are included in cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheets. At December 28, 2024, the fair value of the warrant issued as described in Note 11, Derivative Instruments, is classified as Level 2. Level 2 securities are priced by pricing vendors. These pricing vendors utilize the most recent observable market information in pricing these securities or, if specific prices are not available for these securities, use other observable inputs like market transactions involving identical or comparable securities.

Derivative Instruments Derivative Instruments
During fiscal year 2024, the Company entered into warrant agreements and a development and supply agreement with a supplier which, subject to meeting certain conditions, will entitle the Company to acquire a fixed number of shares of the supplier during the period of time set forth in the warrant agreements. The warrants vest in a series of tranches, at a specified price per share, upon meeting certain development and production-based milestones. If, and when, the relevant milestone is reached, the corresponding tranche of warrant will become exercisable up until the expiration date of the warrants in May 2044.
The warrants are accounted for as a derivative under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, as a result of certain net settlement provisions in the warrant agreements. The Company reports the warrants at their fair values within “other assets” in its condensed consolidated balance sheets and changes in the fair value of the warrants are recognized in “other income, net” on its condensed consolidated statements of operations. The day-one value attributable to the other side of the warrants is reported within “other liabilities” in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and will be amortized over the life of the applicable development and production milestones as determined in the development and supply agreement. The fair value of the warrants recognized within “other assets” on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets at December 28, 2024 is $12.3 million. There is no impact recorded to “other income, net” on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations for the period ended December 28, 2024, as there has been no change to the fair value of the warrants since the Company entered into these warrant agreements in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]  
Related Party Transactions Related Party Transactions
ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures (“ASC 850”), provides guidance for the identification of related parties and the disclosure of related party transactions. Related parties are generally defined as (i) affiliates of the Company; (ii) owners of more than 10% of the voting interests of the Company and members of their immediate families; (iii) management of the Company and members of their immediate families; (iv) other parties which directly or indirectly control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company; or (v) other parties who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. The Company assesses related parties each reporting period. For the period ending December 28, 2024, the Company determined that C&S Wholesale Grocers, Inc. (“C&S”), GreenBox, and certain current holders of Symbotic Holdings were each a related party under ASC 850. The following transactions were related party transactions under ASC 850.
Aircraft Time Sharing Agreement
In December 2021 and May 2022, the Company entered into aircraft time-sharing agreements with C&S with respect to private aircraft owned by them, whereby the Company’s executives may utilize two C&S aircraft on an as-needed and as-available basis, with no minimum usage being required. As there is no defined period of time stated within these aircraft time-sharing agreements, the Company does not consider these to meet the definition of a lease, and as such, records payments in the period in which the obligation for the payment is incurred. For the three months ended December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company incurred expense of $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively, related to these aircraft time-sharing agreements.
Usage of Facility and Employee Services

Legal Matters
The Company is subject from time to time to various claims, lawsuits and other legal and administrative proceedings. Some of these claims, lawsuits and other proceedings may involve highly complex issues that are subject to substantial uncertainties, and could result in damages, fines and penalties, non-monetary sanctions or relief.
The Company recognizes provisions for claims or pending litigation when it is determined that an unfavorable outcome is probable, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Due to the inherent uncertain nature of litigation, the ultimate outcome or actual cost of settlement may materially vary from estimates.
SEC Matters
The Company has been responding to requests for information from the SEC relating to an investigation by the SEC of alleged violations by the Company of Rule 21F-17, which prohibits actions to impede communications directly with the SEC staff about a possible securities law violation. The Company intends to continue to defend this matter vigorously and cannot predict the outcome of this investigation.
The Company has received a subpoena from the SEC relating to its November 2024 restatement of revenues for the year ended September 28, 2024 and certain other matters. The Company is cooperating with the SEC with respect to this matter.
Securities Class Actions
On August 14, 2024, a putative class action captioned Fox v. Symbotic Inc. et al., Case No. 24-cv-12090 was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by an alleged holder of the Company’s common stock. The complaint asserts claims for violations of federal securities laws against the Company and two of its officers on the grounds that, among other things, the Company made false and/or misleading statements related to its expected earnings for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. Based on these allegations, the plaintiff brings claims seeking unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees, expert fees, and other costs and relief on behalf of herself and a putative class of persons who purchased the Company’s stock between May 6, 2024 and July 29, 2024. On September 11, 2024, the court entered a stipulation staying the Company’s deadline to respond to the complaint until after a lead plaintiff has been appointed pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. As of February 3, 2025, a lead plaintiff has not been appointed. On December 20, 2024, the plaintiff filed a motion to consolidate this matter with another putative class action captioned Decker v. Symbotic Inc. et al. (further described below). As of February 3, 2025, the court has not yet ruled on the pending motion to consolidate.
On December 3, 2024, a putative class action captioned Decker v. Symbotic Inc. et al., Case No. 24-cv-12976 was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by an alleged purchaser of the Company’s common stock. The complaint asserts claims for violations of federal securities laws against the Company and three of its officers on the grounds that the Company made false and/or misleading statements related to its revenue recognition and the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based on these allegations, the plaintiff brings claims seeking unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees, expert fees, and other costs and relief on behalf of himself and a putative class of persons who purchased the Company’s stock between February 8, 2024 and November 26, 2024. The parties have filed a stipulation staying the Company’s deadline to respond to the complaint until after a pending motion to consolidate is resolved and a lead plaintiff has been appointed pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.
The Company intends to vigorously defend these cases. If a court ultimately determines that the Company is liable in either or both of these cases, the Company may be subject to substantial damages. The Company cannot predict with any
degree of certainty the outcome of these matters or determine the extent of any potential liabilities. The Company also cannot provide an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss. Any adverse outcome in these matters could expose the Company to substantial damages that may have a material adverse impact on its operations and cash flows. Despite the potential for significant damages, the Company does not believe, based on currently available information, that the outcome of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, although the outcome could be material to its operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon the operating results for such period.
Shareholder Derivative Actions
On October 2, 2024, two putative shareholder derivative actions captioned Austen v. Cohen et al., 24-cv-12522 and Kukreja v. Cohen et al., 24-cv-12523 were filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by the Company’s alleged shareholders. The actions assert claims on behalf of the Company against certain senior officers and members of its board of directors for, among others, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and violations of federal securities laws based primarily on allegations that the defendants caused or allowed the Company to disseminate misleading and inaccurate information to shareholders in connection with the Company’s expected earnings for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. The actions also contend that the defendants wasted corporate assets by exposing the Company to the securities class action lawsuit filed on August 14, 2024. The actions seek compensatory damages, changes to corporate governance and internal procedures, restitution, costs and attorneys’ fees, and other unspecified relief. Motions to consolidate the two actions into a single matter, appoint lead plaintiffs’ counsel, and stay any obligation of the defendants to respond to the complaint based on the pendency of the related Fox v. Symbotic securities class action lawsuit remain pending.
The Company intends to vigorously defend these cases. If a court ultimately determines that the Company is liable, the Company may be subject to substantial damages. The Company cannot predict with any degree of certainty the outcome of this matter or determine the extent of any potential liabilities. The Company also cannot provide an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss. Any adverse outcome in this matter could expose the Company to substantial damages that may have a material adverse impact on its operations and cash flows. Despite the potential for significant damages, the Company does not believe, based on currently available information, that the outcome of this proceeding will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, although the outcome could be material to its operating results for any particular period, depending, in part, upon the operating results for such period.
Contingencies
Liabilities for any loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, penalties, and other matters are recorded when it is probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs associated with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. As of December 28, 2024, the Company had made appropriate provisions related to such matters and does not believe that such matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated operations, financial position, or liquidity.
Indemnifications
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into various contracts under which it may agree to indemnify other parties for losses incurred from certain events as defined in the relevant contract, such as litigation, regulatory penalties, or claims relating to past performance. Such indemnification obligations may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. The Company has never incurred costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification obligations. As a result, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these obligations is not material. Accordingly, the Company has no liabilities recorded for these obligations as of December 28, 2024 and September 28, 2024.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”) Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”)
VIEs are entities with any of the following characteristics: (i) the entity does not have enough equity to finance its activities without additional financial support; (ii) the equity holders, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest; or (iii) the entity is structured with non-substantive voting rights.
Consolidation of a VIE is required for the party deemed to be the primary beneficiary, if any. The primary beneficiary is the party who has both (a) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (b) an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity.
On July 23, 2023, the Company, New Symbotic Holdings, and Symbotic LLC (collectively, the “Symbotic Group”), entered into a Framework Agreement (the “Framework Agreement”) with Sunlight Investment Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Sunlight”), SVF II Strategic Investments AIV LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SVF” and, together with
Sunlight, “SoftBank”), and GreenBox Systems LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GreenBox”), related to, among other things, the formation of GreenBox as a venture between the Symbotic Group and SoftBank and a warrant to purchase Class A Common Stock of Symbotic (the “GreenBox Warrant”). On July 23, 2023, GreenBox also entered into a Master Services, License and Equipment Agreement with Symbotic LLC with respect to the purchase of Systems (“GreenBox Commercial Agreement”).
GreenBox was established on July 21, 2023, to build and automate supply chain networks globally by operating and financing the Company’s advanced artificial intelligence and automation technology for the warehouse. Symbotic Holdings and Sunlight own 35% and 65% of GreenBox, respectively. The Company evaluated for VIEs upon the formation of GreenBox in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation. The Company holds a variable interest in GreenBox through its equity interest in GreenBox. GreenBox is a VIE resulting from GreenBox’s lack of sufficient equity to finance its operations without additional subordinated financial support from both the Company and SoftBank. The consolidation of GreenBox is not required as the Company is not the primary beneficiary of this VIE as it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact GreenBox’s economic performance. Such power is conveyed through GreenBox’s board of directors and the Company does not have control over GreenBox’s board of directors.
The Company’s recorded investments in the unconsolidated VIE and related estimated maximum exposure to loss are as follows (in thousands):

The Company calculated its maximum exposure to loss while considering its equity investment in the VIE, any amounts owed to the Company for services which may have been provided, and future funding commitments of $1,633.2 million. As of December 28, 2024, there is a $85.9 million carrying value of the VIE which represents the amount which the Company has invested in the VIE, net of the Company’s proportionate share of the VIE’s net loss. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as displayed above does not take into consideration the VIE’s commitment under the GreenBox Commercial Agreement to reimburse the Company in the event of a termination. If the VIE’s commitment under the GreenBox Commercial Agreement was taken into consideration, there would be no maximum exposure to loss presented as the VIE’s commitment under the GreenBox Commercial Agreement exceeds the Company’s future funding commitments.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Net Loss per Share Net Loss per Share
Basic earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders adjusted for the assumed exchange of all potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding adjusted to give effect to potentially dilutive elements. Since the Company incurred net losses for each of the periods presented, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share.
The following table sets forth reconciliations of the numerators and denominators used to compute basic and diluted earnings per share of Class A common stock (in thousands, except per share information):

The Company’s Class V-1 Common Stock and Class V-3 Common Stock do not participate in the earnings or losses of the Company and are therefore not participating securities. As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share of Class V-1 Common Stock and Class V-3 Common Stock under the two-class method has not been presented.
The Company uses the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period for calculating any potential dilutive effect of its equity instruments. The average stock price for the three months ended December 28, 2024 was $28.49. For the three months ended December 28, 2024, there were 4.0 million potentially dilutive common stock equivalents related to the RSUs which would have been included in the diluted EPS calculation, and 5.4 million anti-dilutive common stock equivalents related to the unvested GreenBox Warrant that could potentially dilute EPS in the future.

GreenBox Warrant
On July 23, 2023, the Company issued the GreenBox Warrant, which allows Sunlight to acquire up to an aggregate of 11,434,360 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, subject to certain vesting conditions. The GreenBox Warrant had a grant date fair value of $19.90 per share. The GreenBox Warrant may vest in connection with conditions defined by the terms of the GreenBox Warrant, as GreenBox makes additional expenditures to the Company in connection with the Framework Agreement. There are up to eight tranches in the GreenBox Warrant based on increments of expenditures where
approximately 1,429,295 additional shares may vest per tranche, subject to certain conditions defined by the terms of the GreenBox Warrant. Upon vesting, warrant shares may be acquired at an exercise price of $41.9719. The warrant contains customary anti-dilution, down-round, and change-in-control provisions. The right to purchase shares in connection with the GreenBox Warrant expires 36 months following the end of the initial term of the Framework Agreement which is July 23, 2027, or if applicable, the extension term of the Framework Agreement, which is July 23, 2029. As of December 28, 2024, none of the GreenBox Warrant shares had vested.
Walmart Warrant
On May 20, 2022, in connection with its entry into the 2nd Amended and Restated MAA, the Company issued Walmart a warrant to acquire up to an aggregate of 258,972 Legacy Warehouse Class A Units (“May 2022 Warrant”), subject to certain vesting conditions. The May 2022 Warrant had a grant date fair value of $224.45. In connection with the closing of the Company’s initial public offering in June 2022, the May 2022 Warrant was converted into a new warrant to acquire up to an aggregate of 15,870,411 common units of Symbotic Holdings (“June 2022 Warrant” and, the common units of Symbotic Holdings issuable thereunder, the “Warrant Units”). The June 2022 Warrant vested in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023, as the installation commencement date for certain Systems which the Company is installing in Walmart’s 42 regional distribution centers had occurred. In December 2023, Walmart elected to gross exercise the vested warrants for $158.7 million. As a result of this gross exercise, 15,870,411 shares of Class V-1 Common Stock were issued to Walmart.

Subsequent Events Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Other than as described in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and below, the Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
On January 15, 2025, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Walmart, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company agreed to acquire from Walmart all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Walmart Advanced Systems & Robotics Inc. (“WASR”), a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Walmart.
The Purchase Agreement provides that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Symbotic will pay to Walmart, (a) upon the closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, $200 million in cash, subject to customary adjustments for cash, indebtedness and transaction expenses (the “Base Consideration”), and (b)
deferred cash consideration following the Closing of (i) $175 million, payable only upon acceptance of the first APD (as defined below) under the terms of the Walmart Commercial Agreement (as defined below) by Walmart, and (ii) $175 million, payable only upon Walmart’s exercise of the Additional APD Option (as defined below). As stated below, the acquisition closed on January 27, 2025, and the Company paid Walmart $200 million in cash.
The Purchase Agreement also contemplates that, immediately prior to or at the Closing, the Company and Walmart (or their respective affiliates) will enter into a number of ancillary agreements, including (a) a transition services agreement, pursuant to which Walmart and its affiliates will provide certain transition services to Symbotic LLC and affiliates thereof for a period following the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, and (b) an intellectual property agreement, pursuant to which Walmart and its affiliates will grant to the Company and its affiliates certain licenses concerning intellectual property assets relating to the operation of the Business (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein.
Contemporaneously with the Closing, Symbotic LLC and Walmart entered into a Master Automation Agreement (the “Walmart Commercial Agreement”), which sets forth the terms and conditions governing the development, manufacture and installation of accelerated pickup and delivery systems (“APDs”) by Symbotic LLC for Walmart. The Walmart Commercial Agreement provides for a commitment, subject to the satisfaction of defined system performance metrics of the APDs, from Walmart to purchase 400 APDs, with an option for Walmart to purchase an additional 200 APDs (the “Additional APD Option”), exercisable by Walmart within 30 days following acceptance of the 220th APD under the terms of the Walmart Commercial Agreement. For each APD, Walmart will pay Symbotic LLC: (a) the cost of implementation, including the cost of material and labor, plus a specified net profit amount; (b) for software maintenance and support; and (c) for spare parts and other miscellaneous expenses. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Walmart Commercial Agreement, Walmart will also pay Symbotic LLC a total of $520 million of research and development fees relating to the generation of prototypes and other research and development, with $230 million payable at Closing, $165 million payable one year after Closing and $125 million payable two years after Closing, and under certain specified circumstances if Symbotic LLC commercializes substantially similar APDs (or the software used within such APDs) with third parties, Walmart may be entitled to a royalty fee paid by Symbotic LLC.
The Company completed the acquisition of WASR on January 27, 2025, with a preliminary purchase price of up to $200 million.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed in, or omitted from, these interim financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto as of and for the year ended September 28, 2024, which are included within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 4, 2024. The September 28, 2024 consolidated balance sheet included herein is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.
Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and majority-owned subsidiaries and reflect all adjustments (consisting solely of normal, recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include 100% of the accounts of wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and the ownership interest of the minority investor is recorded as a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year.
Fiscal Period
The Company operates and reports using a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the last Saturday of September of each calendar year. Each of the Company’s fiscal quarters end on the last Saturday of the third month of each quarter.
Use of Estimates The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and the amounts disclosed in the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from management’s estimates, judgments, and assumptions. Significant estimates, judgments, and assumptions used in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, those related to revenue, useful lives and realizability of long-lived assets, accounting for income taxes and related valuation allowances, and stock-based compensation. Estimates are periodically reviewed in light of changes in circumstances, facts, and experience.
Presentation of Restricted Cash Restricted cash primarily consists of collateral required for a credit card processing program and a U.S. customs bond. The short-term or long-term classification is determined in accordance with the required amount of time the cash is to be held as collateral, which is short-term for less than 12 months, and long-term for greater than 12 months from the balance sheet date.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 enhances segment reporting under Topic 280 by expanding the breadth and frequency of segment disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires disclosure of significant expenses that are regularly provided to an entity’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included in the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit or loss. When applying this disclosure requirement, an entity identifies the segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM or easily computable from information that is regularly provided to the CODM. Entities are also required to disclose other segment items, i.e., the difference between reported segment revenue less the significant segment expenses and the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit or loss. ASU 2023-07 also clarifies that single reportable segment entities are subject to Topic 280 in its entirety. ASU 2023-07 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments in ASU 2023-07 should be adopted retrospectively unless impracticable. Early adoption is permitted. The disclosures required by ASU 2023-07 are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires public entities, on an annual basis, to provide: a tabular rate reconciliation (using both percentages and reporting currency amounts) of (1) the reported income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations, to (2) the product of the income (or loss) from continuing operations before income taxes and the applicable statutory federal (national) income tax rate of the jurisdiction (country) of domicile using specific categories, and separate disclosure for any reconciling items within certain categories that are equal to or greater than a specified quantitative threshold. For each annual period presented, ASU 2023-09 also requires all reporting entities to disclose the year-to-date amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal (national), state, and foreign. It also requires additional disaggregated information on income taxes paid (net of refunds received) to an individual jurisdiction equal to or greater than 5% of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). ASU 2023-09 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. ASU 2023-09 is to be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) - Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires additional disclosure about specified categories of expenses included in relevant expense captions presented on the income statement. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2024-03 will have on its disclosures.
