Sandisk Announces Pricing of Upsized Secondary Offering of Common Stock

Sandisk Corporation (Nasdaq: SNDK) (the “Company” or “Sandisk”) announced today the pricing of a secondary public offering (the “Offering”) of 18,534,581 shares of its common stock (the “SNDK Shares”) currently owned by Western Digital Corporation, the Company’s former parent (“WDC”). The size of the offering reflects an increase from the 17,000,000 shares of common stock originally proposed to be sold. The SNDK Shares will be offered at a public offering price of $38.50 per share. Sandisk is not selling any shares of common stock and will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the SNDK Shares in the Offering or from the debt-for-equity exchange (described below).

Prior to the closing of the Offering, WDC is expected to exchange the SNDK Shares for certain indebtedness of WDC held by affiliates of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and BofA Securities (such affiliates, the “debt-for-equity exchange parties”). Upon the consummation of the debt-for-equity exchange, WDC is expected to deliver the SNDK Shares, at the request of the debt-for-equity exchange parties, to J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and BofA Securities, in their capacity as selling stockholders in the Offering (in such capacity, the “Selling Stockholders”). Following the debt-for-equity exchange, if consummated, the Selling Stockholders intend to sell the SNDK Shares to the underwriters in the Offering.

The Selling Stockholders in the Offering have granted the underwriters an option (the “greenshoe”) to purchase up to 2,780,187 additional shares of Sandisk common stock at the public offering price less the underwriting discount for 13 days.

Following the completion of the debt-for-equity exchange, and if the greenshoe is completely exercised by the underwriters, WDC would own 7,513,019 shares of SNDK Shares.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and BofA Securities are acting as the joint lead book-runners for the Offering and the representatives of the underwriters of the Offering. The Offering is expected to close on June 9, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.

A registration statement on Form S-1, including a prospectus, relating to these securities was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 5, 2025. The Offering is being made only by means of a prospectus. You may obtain these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, copies of the final prospectus relating to the Offering, when available, may be obtained from J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Attention: c/o Broadridge Financial Solutions, 1155 Long Island Avenue, Edgewood, NY 11717 or by e-mail at prospectus-eq_fi@jpmchase.com and postsalemanualrequests@broadridge.com; or BofA Securities, Attention: Prospectus Department, NC1-022-02-25, 201 North Tryon Street, Charlotte, NC 28255-0001, or by e-mail at dg.prospectus_requests@bofa.com.
