Life360 Announces Closing of Upsized $320 Million Offering of 0.00% Convertible Senior Notes

SAN FRANCISCO, June 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Life360, Inc. (NASDAQ: LIF, ASX: 360) (“Life360”), today announced the closing of its previously announced private offering of 0.00% convertible senior notes due 2030 (the “Notes”). The notes were sold in a private offering only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The offering represents the aggregate of both the previously announced, upsized offering of $275.0 million, as well as the full exercise of the $45.0 million option to purchase additional notes granted by Life360 to the initial purchasers of the notes, which aggregates to $320 million in principal amount of the Notes.

The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $308.9 million, after deducting fees and estimated expenses. Life360 used approximately $33.7 million of the net proceeds from this offering of the notes to fund the cost of entering into the previously disclosed capped call transactions, and intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include acquisitions or strategic investments in complementary businesses.

The offer and sale of the notes and the shares of Life360’s common stock potentially issuable upon conversion of the notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.

This press release does not and shall not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any notes or shares of Life360’s common stock, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of notes or such common stock in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

The offer and sale of the notes and any shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or any other securities laws, and the notes and any such shares cannot be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws. This announcement does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, the notes or any shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes, nor will there be any sale of the notes or any such shares, in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, sale or solicitation would be unlawful.

Authorization

This announcement should not be relied upon as a recommendation or forecast by Life360. Life360 may not consummate the offering described in this announcement and, if the offering is consummated, cannot provide any assurances regarding its ability to effectively apply the net proceeds as described above. Nothing contained in this document nor any information made available to you is, or shall be relied upon as, a promise, representation, warranty or guarantee as to the past, present or the future performance of Life360.
