Business Context and Reporting Period
Company: SMART Global Holdings, Inc. (Note: Input metadata referenced "Penguin Solutions, Inc.", but the filing text identifies the registrant as SMART Global Holdings, Inc.)

Business Overview: The Company is incorporated in the Cayman Islands and trades on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "SGH".
Key Financial Metrics
This filing is a Current Report (Form 8-K) regarding a material definitive agreement and does not contain comprehensive financial statements (Revenue, Profit, Cash Flow, or Margins). Specific financial data points disclosed include:
- Debt Instrument: 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 ("2026 Notes").
- Outstanding Principal: As of August 21, 2024, the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the 2026 Notes is less than $20,000,000.
- Previous Debt: Promissory notes issued to Cree, Inc. ("Cree Notes") have been paid in full.
- Liquidity/Credit Facility: The Company maintains a Credit Agreement with Citizens Bank, N.A., as administrative agent.
Material Changes Versus Prior Period
The primary material change is the execution of a Third Amendment to the Company's Credit Agreement dated February 7, 2022. Key modifications include:
- Removal of Cree Notes Trigger: The Amendment removes the "springing maturity" provision related to the Cree Notes, as they have been fully repaid.
- Revised Maturity Trigger: The Credit Agreement's maturity date will now only be accelerated to 90 days prior to the maturity of the 2026 Notes if, on that date, more than $20,000,000 of the 2026 Notes remains outstanding.
- Current Status: Since the outstanding 2026 Notes are currently below the $20,000,000 threshold, the accelerated maturity provision is not currently triggered based on the 2026 Notes alone.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
Management Commentary: The filing states that the description of the Amendment is not complete and refers investors to the full text of the Amendment, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending August 30, 2024.
Risks and Contingencies: The filing highlights the dependency of the Credit Agreement's maturity date on the outstanding balance of the 2026 Notes. If the outstanding principal exceeds $20,000,000 near the maturity of the 2026 Notes, the Credit Agreement will mature 90 days prior to the Notes' maturity.
Key Facts for Investor Verification
- Verify the exact outstanding principal balance of the 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 to confirm it remains below the $20,000,000 threshold.
- Review the full text of the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement when filed in the upcoming Form 10-K for complete terms.
- Confirm the maturity date of the 2026 Notes to calculate the potential "springing" maturity date of the Credit Agreement.
- Monitor future filings for any changes in the principal amount of the 2026 Notes that could trigger the accelerated maturity clause.
