Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On November 11, 2021, Berkshire Grey, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Also on November 11, 2021, Thomas Wagner, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mark Fidler, Chief Financial Officer, and Sara Buda, Vice President of Investor Relations, participated in a conference call to discuss the Company’s third quarter 2021 financial
results. A recording of the conference call has been posted on the Company’s website at www.berkshiregrey.com, and copy of a transcript of the conference call is furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this report.
In the earnings conference call, the Company utilizes financial measures and terms not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) in order to provide investors with an alternative method for assessing the Company’s operating results in a manner that enables investors to more thoroughly evaluate its current performance as compared to past performance. The Company also believes these non-GAAP measures provide investors with a more informed baseline for modeling the Company’s future financial performance. Management uses these non-GAAP measures for the same purpose. These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results and may differ from similar measures used by other companies. For a description, and reconciliation with GAAP, of these non-GAAP measures see the Company’s press release dated November 11, 2021, announcing the Company’s third quarter 2021 financial results, a copy of which is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 on this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The information set forth under this “Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition” (including the exhibit thereto) shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall it be incorporated by reference in any filing made by the Company pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), other than to the extent that such filing incorporates by reference any or all of such information by express reference thereto.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
The transcript of the earnings conference call furnished as Exhibit 99.2 also provides an update on the Company’s business outlook, that is intended to be within the safe harbor provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”) as comprising forward looking statements within the meaning of the Act.
The information furnished in this Item 7.01, including the exhibit incorporated by reference herein, will not be treated as “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. This information will not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act, or into another filing under the Exchange Act, regardless of any incorporation by reference language in any such filing. This Current Report will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information in this Current Report that is required to be disclosed solely by Regulation FD.
