Description of Business

 

Smartbird, Inc., ("Smartbird" and, together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, the "Company," "we," or "our") was incorporated in the state of Delaware on May 6, 2015 and is headquartered in Palo Alto, California. Smartbird operates within the Artificial Intelligence ("AI") infrastructure market, including the acquisition and monetization of graphics processing units ("GPUs"), related high-performance computing infrastructure capable of supporting high workloads (whether from AI and machine learning or other needs of potential future customers) and other related assets (which we refer to collectively as "AI Infrastructure" or "AI Infrastructure Platforms" and such business, the "AI Infrastructure Business").

 

Prior to operating the AI Infrastructure Business, the Company, doing business as Allbirds, Inc., historically sold footwear and apparel (which we refer to as our "historical footwear business"), and the majority of our revenue was from sales directly to consumers via our digital and retail channels.

 

On June 9, 2026, the Company and the Buyer consummated the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Asset Sale (as defined below) (the "Closing"). As previously disclosed, on March 29, 2026, Allbirds and Allbirds IP LLC, an affiliate of American Exchange Group (the "Buyer"), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which, upon the Closing, the Buyer (a) acquired certain of the Company's assets, including those related to intellectual property assets (including global trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents, domain names, social media accounts, customer lists, and related intellectual property), inventory, certain accounts receivable, and certain prepaid expenses (all of which related to the historical footwear business); and (b) assumed certain liabilities, including those related to certain accounts payable, certain scheduled current liabilities, and intellectual property transfer costs and expenses, subject to certain exceptions (collectively, the foregoing, the "Asset Sale"). All of the assets and liabilities sold and assumed pursuant to the Asset Sale related to our historical footwear business. 

 

Due to the sale of the historical footwear business in the second quarter of 2026, the Company has classified the results of the historical footwear business as discontinued operations on its condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for all periods presented. See Note 3, Discontinued Operations, for additional disclosure related to discontinued operations. The discussion in the notes to these condensed consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise noted, relates solely to the Company's continuing operations.
