Item 8.01. Other Events.
As previously disclosed, on August 18, 2026, Weave Communications, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Willow Parent, LLC (“Parent”) and Willow Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”). Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of Francisco Partners Management, L.P. The Merger Agreement provides for the acquisition of the Company by Parent by means of a merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.
On September 21, 2026, early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) relating to the Merger was granted. The termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act satisfies one of the conditions to the closing of the Merger. The Merger is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval of the Merger by the Company’s stockholders.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Form 8-K”) that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that involve risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s current expectations, estimates and projections regarding, among other things, the expected date of closing of the proposed transaction. Such statements are based on management’s expectations as of the date they are made and are not guarantees of future results. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “expect,” “may,” “should,” “intend,” “seek,” “estimate,” “plan,” “target,” “project,” “likely,” “will,” “future” or other similar words or phrases. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, factors such as: (i) the ability to meet the closing conditions to the proposed transaction, including obtaining approval of the Company’s stockholders, on the expected timeframe or at all; (ii) potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships, operating results, financial results and the business generally resulting from the announcement, pendency or inability to complete the proposed transaction on the expected timeframe or at all; (iii) actual or threatened litigation relating to the proposed transaction or otherwise; (iv) the inability to retain key personnel, management or customers, or potential diminished productivity due to the impact of the proposed transaction on the Company’s current and prospective employees, key management, customers and other business partners; (v) risks related to diverting management’s attention from the Company’s ongoing business operations; (vi) unexpected delays, costs, charges, fees or expenses resulting from the proposed transaction or the assumption of undisclosed liabilities related thereto; (vii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance or condition that could give rise to the termination of the proposed transaction, including in circumstances requiring the Company to pay a termination fee; (viii) the risk that the price of the Company’s common stock may fluctuate during the pendency of the proposed transaction and may decline significantly if the proposed transaction is not completed; (ix) the risk that certain restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction may affect the Company’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (x) actions by competitors; (xi) general adverse economic, political, social and security conditions in the regions in which the Company operates; and (xii) the other risks and uncertainties discussed under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in other documents that the Company subsequently files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 8-K. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances after the date of this Form 8-K.
