[SCHEDULE 13G/A] Luminar Technologies, Inc. SEC Filing

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Luminar Technologies (LAZR) is reported as having 4,725,226 Class A shares beneficially owned by a group of Susquehanna-related entities and Capital Ventures International, representing 9.9% of the Class A shares (based on 44,684,806 shares outstanding per the Company proxy as of June 3, 2025). The filing is a Schedule 13G (Amendment No. 1) and discloses that some of the reported interest arises from shares issuable on conversion of convertible notes and that Susquehanna Securities’ reported holdings include options to buy 1,346,344 shares.

The ownership is reported across six entities with varying sole and shared voting/dispositive powers; Susquehanna Advisors Group, Inc. is identified as investment manager to Capital Ventures International and may exercise voting/dispositive power over CVI’s shares. The filing also contains a certification that the securities were not acquired to change or influence control. Signatures on the amendment are dated 08/13/2025.

Positive

• Aggregate economic interest of 4,725,226 shares disclosed, representing a material 9.9% stake in LAZR Class A stock
• Disclosure of convertible-note and option exposure (shares issuable on conversion and 1,346,344 options) provides transparency about potential future interest
• Coordinated filing by related entities clarifies shared and sole voting/dispositive powers and manager relationships

Negative

• Stake is 9.9%, which is below the 10% threshold and indicates no filing as an active control-seeking investor in this amendment
• Voting and dispositive power is shared across multiple entities, so no single reporting person asserts unilateral control

Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR: A material, non-control 9.9% economic stake is reported, including convertible and option exposure that could change future interest.

The filing shows an aggregate beneficial position of 4,725,226 shares (9.9%) in LAZR across affiliated Susquehanna entities and Capital Ventures International. Notably, the reported position includes shares from convertible notes held by Capital Ventures International and 1,346,344 options included in Susquehanna Securities’ total, which creates potential for changing economic exposure over time. Voting and dispositive powers are split between sole and shared designations across entities, and the filers expressly state the holdings were not acquired to influence control. From an analytics standpoint this is material ownership disclosure but represents a coordinated reporting of existing economic interests rather than an explicit control move.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Group filing documents shared voting/dispositive arrangements and manager-client relationships; no single filer claims full control.

The amendment identifies six reporting persons and documents that they may be deemed a group for reporting purposes while also disclaiming direct ownership of one another’s shares. It specifically notes that Susquehanna Advisors Group acts as investment manager to Capital Ventures International and may exercise voting/dispositive power over CVI’s convertible-note-derived shares. The filing includes the required certification that the securities were not acquired to affect control. Governance implications are primarily disclosure-focused: the arrangement clarifies who may exercise voting authority but does not assert an intent to change issuer control.
