Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 9, 2026 (the “Bridge Closing Date”), Flex Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Singapore (the “Company” or “Flex”) entered into a Bridge Credit Agreement (the “Bridge Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, as borrower, the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent, which provides a senior bridge term loan credit facility (the “Bridge Credit Facility”) in an aggregate committed amount of $1.1 billion. In connection with the consummation of the Transaction (as defined below), on October 14, 2026, the Company borrowed $1.1 billion under the Bridge Credit Facility in a single advance. The Bridge Credit Facility will mature on October 13, 2027, the date that is 364 days after the date on which it was funded.

Loans under the Bridge Credit Agreement bear interest at a floating rate, which can be, at the Company’s option, either (i) Term SOFR (as defined in the Bridge Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin or (ii) the Base Rate (as defined in the Bridge Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin, in each case, with such margin determined based on the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt ratings.

《过渡信贷协议》包含各种惯常契约，包括但不限于限制公司及其子公司产生债务、授予留置权、处置重大资产、与其它公司合并或合并入该公司、实质性改变其业务性质以及进行某些会计变更，在每种情况下，均受各种例外情况的限制。《过渡信贷协议》要求维持（i）债务/EBITDA比率（定义见《过渡信贷协议》）在任何财政季度最后一天不超过 4.50:1.00，以及（ii）利息保障倍数（定义见《过渡信贷协议》）在任何财政季度最后一天不低于 3.00:1.00。

《过渡信贷协议》还包括各种惯常的违约事件。发生违约事件时，《过渡信贷协议》项下的承诺可能被终止，未偿借款可能被加速到期。

《过渡信贷协议》项下的义务不由公司的任何子公司提供担保。公司可在过渡交割日后任何时候，并经事先书面通知行政代理，使其任何子公司成为子公司担保人。本 8-K 表格当前报告第 2.01 项和第 2.03 项关于过渡信贷融资项下资金用途的信息，特此引用并入本第 1.01 项。

《过渡信贷协议》的副本作为附件 10.1 随本 8-K 表格当前报告提交，并特此引用并入本第 1.01 项，如同完全列示于此。上述关于《过渡信贷协议》的摘要描述不旨在完整，且其全部内容以《过渡信贷协议》的完整文本为准。

Item 2.01.

完成资产收购或处置。

如前披露，2026年9月3日，公司、ACS Acquisitions, Inc.（一家特拉华州公司及公司的全资子公司（“买方”））、EPC Power Corp.（一家特拉华州公司（“EPC Power”））和 Charge Parent, LLC（一家特拉华州有限责任公司（“卖方”））签订了股票购买协议（“购买协议”），据此买方同意从卖方收购 EPC Power 的全部股权权益（该交易，即“交易”）。2026年10月14日，公司完成了该交易。EPC Power 现已成为公司的全资子公司，并属于公司的云与电力基础设施业务，如前所述，公司计划于2027年第一季度将其分拆为一家独立的上市公司 Axiom Solutions International, Inc.（“Axiom”）（“分拆”）。根据购买协议，交易完成时支付的购买价格为44亿美元现金，需根据购买协议中规定的常规调整进行调整（“对价”）。购买协议包含一项“锁箱”机制，其中 EPC Power 的企业价值已固定为2026年6月30日（“锁箱日”）的金额。EPC Power 和卖方已同意采取常规措施，防止在锁箱日和交易交割日之间 EPC Power 的价值流失，但允许常规的例外情况。

公司通过信贷协议项下的借款、过桥信贷协议项下的借款和手头现金为对价提供了资金。

上述关于购买协议和交易的描述不旨在完整，其整体以参考公司于2026年9月4日向美国证券交易委员会（“SEC”）提交的当前报告 8-K 中的描述为准，该描述通过引用并入本文，以及购买协议的全文，该全文的副本作为公司于2026年9月4日向 SEC 提交的当前报告 8-K 的附件 2.1 由公司提交，并通过引用并入本文。

如前披露，2026年10月2日，公司与 Axiom 签订了 A 轮可转换优先股投资协议（“优先投资协议”），与 GC Venture XIII (ASI), L.P. 及其他相关投资者（统称“优先投资者”）达成一致，根据该协议，优先投资者同意以每股10,000美元的购买价格和总计20亿美元的总购买价格（“优先投资”），认购 Axiom 的200,000股 A 轮可转换优先股，每股面值0.0001美元（“可转换优先股”），进行私募配售。优先投资的交割仍须满足或豁免某些惯常的交割条件，包括但不限于《1976年哈特-斯科特-罗迪诺反垄断改进法》（经修订）项下适用等待期（及任何延期）的届满或终止，以及获得某些其他必要的监管批准。Axiom 预计将使用优先投资的净收益，用于偿还公司在交易中产生的借款。

上述关于优先投资和优先投资协议的描述并不旨在完整，其整体内容以引用公司于2026年10月5日向 SEC 提交的 8-K 表格当前报告中的描述为准，该

\n描述通过引用并入本文，以及优先投资协议的全文，其副本作为公司于2026年10月5日向 SEC 提交的 8-K 表格当前报告的附件 10.1 提交，并通过引用并入本文。

项目 2.03.

注册人直接债务义务或资产负债表外安排项下义务的设立。

如前披露，2026年9月29日，公司与贷款方及行政代理 Citibank, N.A. 签订了信贷协议（“信贷协议”），公司作为借款人，贷款方作为相关方，根据该协议，提供总额33亿美元的银团定期贷款信贷额度（“信贷额度”）。在交易完成过程中，2026年10月14日，公司通过一次性贷款从信贷额度中借入33亿美元，用于支付部分对价及与交易相关的其他费用和开支。信贷额度将于2027年10月13日到期，即自其提供资金之日起的第364天。信贷协议项下的贷款按浮动利率计息，根据公司选择，可为（i）Term SOFR（根据信贷协议定义）加上适用利差，或（ii）基本利率（根据信贷协议定义）加上适用利差，在任何一种情况下，该利差均根据公司的高级无担保长期债务评级确定。公司须在 Axiom 为进行分拆而签订的定期贷款额度提供资金时，提前偿还信贷额度下的贷款。

如上所述，在交易完成之际，2026年10月14日，公司通过一次性预付款项，在桥式信贷安排下借入11亿美元，用于支付部分对价以及与交易相关的其他费用和开支。

本 8-K 表格当前报告第1.01项所载信息，现通过引用方式并入本第2.03项。

上述信贷协议的描述并不旨在完整，其整体内容以引用方式作为限定，具体以公司于2026年10月2日向SEC提交的当前报告 8-K 表格作为附件10.01提交的信贷协议全文为准，该全文在此通过引用方式并入。

Risks and uncertainties related to the Transaction, the Preferred Investment and the proposed Spin-Off include, but are not limited to: uncertainties as to whether the Preferred Investment and the Spin-Off will be completed and the timing thereof; the ability to achieve anticipated ratings of the Convertible Preferred Stock; the possibility that various conditions to the completion of the Preferred Investment and the Spin-Off may not be satisfied or waived, including the failure to obtain required regulatory approvals in the expected timeframe or at all or subject to conditions that are not anticipated; the possibility that the Spin-Off will not qualify for the expected tax-free treatment for U.S. federal income tax purposes; the risk that the Spin-Off may be more difficult, time-consuming, or costly than expected, including the impact on Flex resources, systems, procedures, and controls; potential adverse effects to the businesses of Flex during the pendency of the Spin-Off, such as employee departures or distraction of management from business operations; the possibility that the strategic, operational and financial benefits of the Transaction and the Spin-Off may not be achieved or may take longer to achieve than expected, including as a result of problems arising from the integration of the business of EPC Power; the failure to obtain, or delays in obtaining, required legal, regulatory or other approvals necessary to complete the Spin-Off; disruption from the Transaction and the Spin-Off, including potential adverse effects on relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other business partners; competitive responses to the completion of the Transaction or the announcement or completion of the Spin-Off; diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations; the possibility of disputes, litigation or unanticipated costs in connection with the Spin-Off; uncertainty regarding the financial performance of either company following the Spin-Off; negative effects of the completion of the Transaction and the announcement or pendency of the Preferred Investment and the Spin-Off on the market price of Flex’s securities and/or on Flex’s financial performance; the ability to achieve anticipated capital structures, credit ratings, and financing in connection with the Spin-Off; the ability to retain key personnel; impacts of geopolitical conflicts; and any changes in general economic and/or industry-specific conditions. Additional information concerning risks relating to our business is described under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of

\nOperations” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our subsequent filings with the SEC. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof, and Flex assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

Important Information and Where to Find It

与拟议的分拆有关，Flex 已向美国证券交易委员会（SEC）提交了相关材料，包括但不限于于 2026 年 10 月 5 日提交的 Schedule 14A 的代理声明（“代理声明”）。该代理声明已邮寄或以其他方式分发给 Flex 的股东，以征求他们对与分拆相关提案的批准。此外，Axiom 已就其普通股向 SEC 提交了一份表 10 的注册声明（“表 10”）。本表 8-K 的当前报告并非代理声明、表 10 或 Flex 或 Axiom 可能向 SEC 提交的任何其他文件的替代品。投资者和证券持有人被敦促仔细并完整地阅读代理声明、表 10 以及由 Flex 和 Axiom 在与拟议的分拆有关的事项中已提交或将会提交给 SEC 的任何其他相关文件，因为这些文件包含或将会包含有关 Flex、Axiom、拟议的分拆及相关事项的重要信息。投资者可以免费获取 Flex 和 Axiom 已经或将会向 SEC 提交的代理声明、表 10 和其他相关文件（在可用时）的副本，方法是访问 SEC 网站 http://www.sec.gov。投资者还可以从 Flex 网站上的投资者关系页面 investors.flex.com 免费获取 Flex 向 SEC 提交的代理声明和其他相关文件的副本。
