On March 13, 2023 (Australian Eastern Time), the Company issued a press release disclosing its exposure to SVB, which the Company did not expect to result in any significant disruption to its operations. Following the Company’s initial press release, on March 12, 2023 (U.S. Eastern Time) the Department of the Treasury, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the FDIC jointly issued a press release announcing that all depositors in SVB would be fully protected and would have access to all of their money starting March 13, 2023 (U.S. Eastern Time). Following this announcement, the Company issued an additional press release.
The full text of the press releases issued in connection with the announcements are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. In addition, a copy of each press releases is available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website at https://investors.life360.com/investor-relations/.

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Life360 intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements can be about future events, including statements regarding estimates regarding timing of the Company’s ability to recover its cash in deposit at SVB. The words “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “project”, “predict”, “will”, “forecast”, “estimate”, “likely”, “intend”, “outlook”, “should”, “could”, “may”, “target”, “plan” and other similar expressions can generally be used to identify forward-looking statements. Indications of, and guidance or outlook on, future earnings or financial position or performance are also forward-looking statements. Investors and prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as they involve inherent risk and uncertainty (both general and specific) and should note that they are provided as a general guide only. There is a risk that such predictions, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking statements will not be achieved. Subject to any continuing obligations under applicable law, Life360 does not undertake any obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this announcement, to reflect any change in expectations in relation to any forward-looking statements or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statements are based.

Forward-looking statements are provided as a general guide only and should not be relied on as an indication or guarantee of future performance. They are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainty, assumptions and contingencies, many of which are outside Life360’s control, and are based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to change and may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include risks described in the Company’s ASX filings, Form 10 Registration Statement and subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. To the maximum extent permitted by law, responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise is disclaimed.

13 March 2023
Update on Silicon Valley Bank
Life360 exposure expected to be up to $5.6 million, with no significant disruption to operations
Background
San Francisco area-based Life360, Inc. (Life360 or the Company) (ASX: 360) is evaluating the impact of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) being closed on Friday, March 10, 2023 (U.S. Pacific time) by the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, which appointed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as receiver. According to the FDIC, all insured depositors of SVB will have full access to their insured deposits no later than Monday, March 13, 2023 (U.S. Pacific time). The FDIC has stated that it will pay uninsured depositors an advance dividend, which will be a portion of the amount of uninsured deposits they have at SVB. Uninsured depositors are expected to receive a receivership certificate for the remaining amount of their uninsured funds. A receivership certificate entitles the holder to the remaining amount of their uninsured funds to be satisfied from (but only to the extent of available) proceeds from the liquidation of SVBs assets in the form of additional dividends. As the FDIC sells the assets of SVB, future dividend payments may be made to uninsured depositors.
Life360 exposure
As of March 10, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $95.1 million, including $6.1 million in deposits with SVB, and $75.4 million in shares of money market mutual funds managed by Morgan Stanley, Blackrock and Western Asset, which are invested in short-term, AAA-rated U.S. Government Treasury and Government Agency securities. Although SVB acted as custodian of these accounts, the Company understands that these accounts were not co-mingled with SVBs assets. As a result, the Company expects that the FDIC should act to liquidate the funds and disburse these amounts, or otherwise make the funds available, to the Company (subject to FDIC confirmation of customer ownership) in the near term, but timing has not been confirmed by the FDIC.
In addition, $13.3 million, representing most of Life360s restricted cash, is held by PNC Bank as escrow funds related to the Tile acquisition. An additional $0.3 million is held in an operating account with the Bank of Montreal.
The remaining $6.1 million was held in several operating and collateral accounts with SVB as detailed in the table below and is therefore under the control of the FDIC. Across the three entities in the group, the Company expects to have access to approximately $0.5 million in the aggregate in FDIC-insured funds. The FDIC has stated that it expects to pay uninsured depositors an advance dividend. There remains considerable uncertainty as to the extent of these dividends and the overall eventual recovery of these funds, if any, will depend on the success of the FDIC in selling the assets of SVB. As a result, management believes that its exposure to loss may be between zero and approximately $5.6 million.
Management currently expects there to be material updates as to the timing of release of funds prior to the opening of U.S. public markets tomorrow (Monday U.S. time). The Company will provide the market with an update as soon as any material further information comes to hand.
Life360s cash components are set out in the table below:

Note: May not add due to rounding
The SVB closure occurred at the peak of the Companys monthly cash cycle and as a result the Company expects its cash position at the end of the first quarter to be in line with previous estimates (assuming normal operating cadence) in the range of $70-75 million, including restricted funds.
Notwithstanding the closure of SVB, the Company continues to believe that its existing cash and cash equivalents balance and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet its working capital, capital expenditures, and material cash requirements from known contractual obligations for the next twelve months.
Other information issued in connection with developments related to our position with SVB will be available on our website located at https://investors.life360.com/investor-relations/.

Life360s CDIs are issued in reliance on the exemption from registration contained in Regulation S of the US Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) for offers of securities which are made outside the US. Accordingly, the CDIs, have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the laws of any state or other jurisdiction in the US. As a result of relying on the Regulation S exemption, the CDIs are restricted securities under Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This means that you are unable to sell the CDIs into the US or to a US person who is not a QIB for the foreseeable future except in very limited circumstances until after the end of the restricted period, unless the re-sale of the CDIs is registered under the Securities Act or an exemption is available. To enforce the above transfer restrictions, all CDIs issued bear a FOR Financial Product designation on the ASX. This designation restricts any CDIs from being sold on ASX to US persons excluding QIBs. However, you are still able to freely transfer your CDIs on ASX to any person other than a US person who is not a QIB. In addition, hedging transactions with regard to the CDIs may only be conducted in accordance with the Securities Act.
