Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

 

On July 15, 2021, Pathfinder Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated with limited liability (“Pathfinder”), issued a press release announcing that it had entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among Pathfinder, ServiceMax, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ServiceMax”), and Stronghold Merger Sub, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated with limited liability and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of ServiceMax. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

 

Furnished as Exhibit 99.2 hereto and incorporated into this Item 7.01 by reference is the investor presentation that Pathfinder and ServiceMax have prepared for use in connection with the announcement of the entry into the Business Combination Agreement.

 

Furnished as Exhibit 99.3 hereto and incorporated into this Item 7.01 by reference is the transcript of a pre-recorded investor call discussing the transaction.

 

The foregoing (including Exhibits 99.1, 99.2 and 99.3) is being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 and will not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise be subject to the liabilities of that section, nor will it be deemed to be incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

 

Additional Information

 

In connection with the proposed transaction, ServiceMax will file a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC that will include a prospectus with respect to ServiceMax’s securities to be issued in connection with the proposed transaction and a proxy statement with respect to the shareholder meeting of Pathfinder to vote on the proposed transaction. Shareholders of Pathfinder and other interested persons are encouraged to read, when available, the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus as well as other documents to be filed with the SEC because these documents will contain important information about Pathfinder, ServiceMax and the proposed transaction. After the registration statement is declared effective, the definitive proxy statement/prospectus to be included in the registration statement will be mailed to shareholders of Pathfinder as of a record date to be established for voting on the proposed transaction. Once available, shareholders of Pathfinder will also be able to obtain a copy of the S-4, including the proxy statement/prospectus, and other documents filed with the SEC without charge, by directing a request to: Pathfinder Acquisition Corporation, 1950 University Avenue, Suite 350, Palo Alto, California. The preliminary and definitive proxy statement/prospectus to be included in the registration statement, once available, can also be obtained, without charge, at the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov).

 

Participants in the Solicitation

 

Pathfinder and ServiceMax and their respective directors and executive officers may be considered participants in the solicitation of proxies with respect to the potential transaction described in this communication under the rules of the SEC. Information about the directors and executive officers of Pathfinder and their ownership is set forth in Pathfinder’s filings with the SEC, including the final prospectus filed by Pathfinder on February 18, 2021 relating to Pathfinder’s initial public offering and in its subsequent periodic reports and other filings with the SEC. Additional information regarding the persons who may, under the rules of the SEC, be deemed participants in the solicitation of the Pathfinder shareholders in connection with the potential transaction will be set forth in the registration statement containing the preliminary proxy statement/prospectus when it is filed with the SEC. These documents are available free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to: Pathfinder Acquisition Corporation, 1950 University Avenue, Suite 350, Palo Alto, California.

 

No Offer or Solicitation

 

This communication is not a proxy statement or solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the potential transaction and does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of Pathfinder or ServiceMax, nor shall there be any sale of any such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act.

 

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act that are based on beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to Pathfinder and ServiceMax. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “continue,” “ongoing,” “target,” “seek” or the negative or plural of these words, or other similar expressions that are predictions or indicate future events or prospects, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including strategies or plans as they relate to the proposed transaction, are also forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from the information expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Although each of Pathfinder and ServiceMax believes that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K, each of Pathfinder and ServiceMax caution you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known and projections of the future, which are inherently uncertain. Forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the proposed transaction, including the timing and structure of the transaction, the proceeds of the transaction and the benefits of the transaction. Neither Pathfinder nor ServiceMax can assure you that the forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K will prove to be accurate. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, among others, changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely consummate the business combination, including the risk that any required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the business combination or that the approval of the shareholders of ServiceMax or Pathfinder is not obtained; the failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the business combination; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to ServiceMax; risks related to the timing and achievement of expected business milestones; the effects of competition on ServiceMax’s business; the risk that the business combination disrupts current plans and operations of Pathfinder and ServiceMax as a result of the announcement and consummation of the business combination; the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the business combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition, the ability of the combined company to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers and retain its management and key employees; risks relating ServiceMax’s history of no revenues and net losses; risks relating to ServiceMax’s intellectual property portfolio; the amount of redemption requests made by Pathfinder's public shareholders; the ability of Pathfinder, ServiceMax or the combined company to issue equity or equity-linked securities or obtain debt financing in connection with the business combination or in the future and other risks and uncertainties, including those to be included under the heading “Risk Factors” in the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by ServiceMax with the SEC and those included under the heading “Risk Factors” in the final prospectus filed by Pathfinder on February 18, 2021 relating to Pathfinder’s initial public offering and in its subsequent periodic reports and other filings with the SEC. The forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K represent the views of Pathfinder and ServiceMax as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K. Subsequent events and developments may cause that view to change. However, while Pathfinder and ServiceMax may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, there is no current intention to do so, except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing the views of Pathfinder or ServiceMax as of any date subsequent to the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
