Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

As previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”), the Company was served with a complaint (the “Guggenheim Complaint”) on March 27, 2024 in which Guggenheim Securities, LLC (“Guggenheim”) alleges breach of a contract with Guggenheim. Guggenheim alleges that the Company owes certain fees and expenses of $11,056,512.70 for services allegedly performed by Guggenheim in connection with the Company’s business combination transaction with FAST Acquisition Corp. II which was consummated on October 6, 2023 (the “Business Combination”). The disclosure herein supplements and supersedes the disclosure relating to the Guggenheim Complaint in the Annual Report.

 

As part of the Company’s accounting approach to transaction expenses related to the Business Combination, prior to the Company’s receipt of the Guggenheim Complaint, the Company accrued $11.1 million as of December 31, 2023 with respect to a contract with Guggenheim. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against the claims alleged in the Guggenheim Complaint and contest the amounts Guggenheim asserts are owed.
