Life360 Files Registration Statement for Proposed U.S. Initial Public Offering
SAN FRANCISCO, May 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — San Francisco area-based Life360, Inc. (“Life360” or the “Company”) today announced that it has publicly filed an automatically effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-279271) (including a base prospectus) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) relating to a proposed initial public offering of its common stock in the U.S. (the “U.S. IPO”). The number of shares to be offered and the price range for the proposed offering have not yet been determined. Life360 intends to list its common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “LIF.”
The U.S. IPO offering will be made only by means of a prospectus supplement and an accompanying prospectus forming a part of the registration statement that will be filed closer in time to the U.S. IPO and will contain further details of the offering. A copy of that prospectus supplement will be filed with the SEC and may be obtained, when available, by visiting the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
The Company, with headquarters in the San Francisco area and pre-existing SEC reporting obligations, views a U.S. IPO and increased exposure to U.S. investors as a natural next-step in its growth. The Company’s CHESS Depositary Interests (CDI) (representing underlying shares of common stock on a 3 CDIs-for-1 share of common stock basis) will remain listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. While the timing, number of shares to be issued, and pricing of the U.S. IPO have not yet been determined and are subject to consideration of several different factors and conditions, it is expected that the U.S. IPO would consist of a primary issuance of new Life360 shares, as well as a secondary sale of existing shares in order to reduce dilution for existing stockholders. The Company currently expects the primary raise to be no more than US$100 million.
This press release is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
Though the Company has taken these preparatory steps to facilitate a U.S. IPO, there is no certainty if or when the Company will proceed with a potential U.S. IPO.

Life360’s 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.
