On December 18, 2025, Luminar Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), committed to a plan to further reduce its workforce by approximately 30% in order
to reduce operating costs. The reduction will commence immediately and is expected to be substantially completed by the first quarter of 2026. The Company estimates that it will incur approximately $2.5 million to $3.0 million in cash charges
associated with employee severance and related employee costs, to be incurred primarily in the first quarter of 2026. The Company’s estimates are subject to a number of assumptions, and actual results may materially differ. The Company may incur
additional costs not currently contemplated due to events that may occur as a result of, or that are associated with, the workforce reduction.
