Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

Following Stem, Inc.’s (the “Company”) 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio of 1-for-20 (the “Reverse Stock Split Ratio”) and a reduction in the total number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 500 million shares to 250 million shares (the “Authorized Shares Reduction”), each with an effective time of 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on June 23, 2025 (the “Effective Time”). To effect the Reverse Stock Split and the Authorized Shares Reduction, on June 11, 2025, the Company filed an amendment to its Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Amendment”).

At the Effective Time, every 20 shares of Common Stock outstanding will be combined, automatically and without any action on the part of the Company or its stockholders, into one new share of Common Stock. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. In lieu of any fractional shares to which a stockholder of record would otherwise be entitled, the Company will pay cash (without interest and subject to withholding taxes, as applicable) equal to such fraction multiplied by the closing price of the Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on June 20, 2025 (as adjusted in good faith by the Company to account for the Reverse Stock Split Ratio). The Common Stock is expected to commence trading on a split-adjusted basis at the open of trading on June 23, 2025, at which time the Common Stock will be represented by a new CUSIP number (85859N300). The par value per share of the Common Stock will remain unchanged.

In addition, adjustments proportionate to the 1-for-20 split ratio will be made to the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Company’s equity incentive plans; the number of shares issuable, and the applicable exercise prices under the Company’s outstanding equity awards under such plans and any outstanding warrants; the conversion rates of outstanding convertible notes, in accordance with the related indentures; the strike prices of existing capped call options; the number of shares authorized for issuance pursuant to the convertible notes and capped call options; the shares reserved for issuance under any equity plan, outstanding equity award, convertible notes, capped call options or otherwise, and as otherwise described in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 23, 2025.

The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
