Palantir Announces Update Regarding Outstanding Shares of Common Stock and Shares Permitted to Be Sold Under Lock-Up Agreements

September 25, 2020

DENVER — (BUSINESS WIRE) — Palantir Technologies Inc. today announced that, as of September 24, 2020, there were 1,050.1 million shares of Palantir’s Class A common stock outstanding, 598.7 million shares of Class B common stock outstanding, and 1.0 million shares of Class F common stock outstanding, including shares that are permitted to be sold under Palantir’s market standoff or lock-up agreements.

Only shares of Class A common stock will be listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Each outstanding share of Class B common stock is convertible, at any time, at the option of the holder, into one share of Class A common stock. Trading of shares of Class A common stock is expected to commence on the New York Stock Exchange next Wednesday, September 30, 2020.

As of September 24, 2020, there were an aggregate of 461.2 million shares of common stock that will be permitted to be sold starting on the first day of trading pursuant to Palantir’s market standoff or lock-up agreements. These 461.2 million shares consisted of (i) an aggregate of 393.1 million shares of common stock, including shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, and (ii) an aggregate of 68.1 million shares of common stock issuable upon vesting of restricted stock units in connection with the listing (“RSUs”).

The outstanding RSUs, which are held by current and former employees and other service providers, are expected to vest and settle into an aggregate of 68.1 million shares of Class A common stock in connection with the listing. Of these shares, approximately 25.8 million shares are expected to be sold throughout the first day of trading to fund personal tax withholding and remittance obligations arising in connection with the RSUs.

In addition, certain record holders of Palantir’s common stock and stock options that are subject to market standoff agreements with Palantir have not signed Palantir’s lock-up agreement and are therefore not permitted to sell any shares during the lock-up period, which is expected to continue until the start of the third trading day following the date of public disclosure of Palantir’s financial results for the year ending December 31, 2020 (the “lock-up period”). If such record holders sign the lock-up agreement, as of September 24, 2020, up to an additional 27.9 million shares of common stock, including shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, would be able to be sold during the lock-up period, subject to certain exceptions.
