[8-K] Intuitive Machines, Inc. Reports Material Event

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Intuitive Machines (LUNR) agreed to acquire Lanteris Space Holdings LLC via a Purchase Agreement signed on November 3, 2025. The deal’s consideration includes $450 million in cash and newly issued Class A Common Stock valued at $350 million. The stock will be issued at $12.34 per share, based on the 10‑day VWAP ended October 31, 2025. The equity portion is capped at 19.99% of outstanding shares and voting power immediately prior to closing; any reduction in stock due to this cap increases the cash paid by the same amount.

Closing is subject to customary conditions, including expiration of the HSR waiting period, Nasdaq listing of the new shares, accuracy of representations, covenant compliance, and no material adverse effect. The Board unanimously approved the agreement, and no stockholder approval is required. Seller faces a lock‑up: 50% of the stock for 180 days and the remaining 50% for 365 days after closing. A Transitional Services Agreement will support post‑close operations. The stock consideration will be issued under Securities Act Section 4(a)(2), with a Registration Rights Agreement granting up to three underwritten offerings and piggyback rights. The agreement includes customary termination rights and an outside date of August 3, 2026 (with a 90‑day extension).

Insights

M&A analyst

Large cash-and-stock deal with issuance cap, lock-up, and standard closing risks.

Intuitive Machines plans to acquire Lanteris for $450 million in cash plus stock valued at $350 million, issued at $12.34 per share. The equity is capped at 19.99% of outstanding shares and voting power immediately before closing; any reduction increases cash consideration one-for-one. That construct limits pre-approval dilution while preserving total consideration.

Closing depends on customary conditions, including HSR waiting period expiration, Nasdaq listing of the new shares, accurate reps, covenant compliance, and absence of a material adverse effect. The outside date is August 3, 2026 with a potential 90‑day extension, providing a clear window before termination rights can be invoked.

Seller’s lock-up (50% for 180 days, remaining 50% for 365 days) moderates near-term secondary supply. The stock will be issued under Section 4(a)(2) with registration rights (up to three underwritten offerings and piggyback rights), indicating potential future liquidity paths for the seller.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions therein, Purchaser will purchase from Seller 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Lanteris (the “Acquisition”).

Consideration

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, the purchase consideration payable to Seller at the closing will consist of (i) a number of newly issued shares valued at $350 million (the “Stock Consideration”) of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) $450 million in cash (the “Cash Consideration”),in each case, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. The Stock Consideration will be issued at $12.34 per share of Common Stock, representing the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for the ten consecutive trading day period ended October 31, 2025. Under the Purchase Agreement, the Stock Consideration may not exceed 19.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as of immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition and may not exceed 19.99% of the voting power of the Company’s equity interests outstanding prior to the issuance of the Stock Consideration, with the Cash Consideration to be increased by the amount the Stock Consideration amount is to be reduced under such provision.

Conditions to Closing

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the completion of the Acquisition is subject to certain closing conditions, including without limitation: (i) the absence of any law, injunction, judgment or ruling of any governmental authority that would prevent or make illegal the consummation of the Acquisition; (ii) the expiration of the waiting period applicable to the Acquisition under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended; (iii) the shares of Common Stock to be issued as Stock Consideration being listed on the Nasdaq, (iv) the accuracy of the parties’ respective representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement, subject to specified materiality qualifications; (v) compliance by the parties with their respective covenants in the Purchase Agreement in all material respects; and (vi) the absence of a material adverse effect with respect to the Company or Lanteris.

The Company’s Board of Directors has unanimously approved the Purchase Agreement. The completion of the Acquisition does not require approval of the Company’s stockholders.

Representations, Warranties and Covenants

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants made by each of the Company, the Purchaser, the Seller, Seller Parent and Lanteris, including, among others, covenants regarding the conduct of the Company’s and Lanteris’s business during the pendency of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, public disclosures and other matters. Seller and Seller Parent are required, among other things, not to solicit alternative business combination transactions with respect to Lanteris. The representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement will not survive the closing.

Termination Rights

The Purchase Agreement provides for customary termination rights for Purchaser and Seller including, among other things, (i) by mutual consent; (ii) if the Acquisition has not been consummated on or before August 3, 2026, subject to a 90-day extension under certain circumstances; (iii) by either Purchaser or Seller if there is a law or regulation making the Acquisition illegal or a final and non-appealable injunction or order permanently enjoining or prohibiting the consummation of the Acquisition; and (iv) by the Purchaser or Seller if Seller or Lanteris (in the case of termination by Purchaser) or Purchaser (in the case of termination by Seller) breaches its representations or fails to perform its covenants such that the conditions to closing fail to be satisfied (subject to a cure period).

Transitional Services Agreement

The Purchase Agreement contemplates that, at the closing of the Acquisition, Seller and Lanteris will enter into a Transitional Services Agreement, pursuant to which Seller has agreed to continue to provide or procure the provision of certain services, only on a transitional basis and in relation to specified business activities of Lanteris, for payment amounts set forth therein.

Lock-Up

The Purchase Agreement restricts the Seller from transferring 50% of the Stock Consideration for the first 180 days following the closing date of the Acquisition and from transferring the remaining 50% of the Stock Consideration for the first 365 days following the closing date of the Acquisition.

Registration Rights Agreement

The Purchase Agreement contemplates that, at the closing of the Acquisition, the Company and Seller will enter into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which Seller will have certain registration rights, including the right to initiate up to three underwritten public offerings, and piggyback registration rights relating to the Stock Consideration.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 2.1 and 10.1 hereto, respectively, and are incorporated by reference herein.

The Purchase Agreement has been attached to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, the Purchaser, the Seller, Seller Parent or Lanteris. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules provided by each of the Company and the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Seller, Seller Parent and Lanteris, on the other hand, to each other in connection with the signing of the Purchase Agreement. These confidential disclosure schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties and certain covenants set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Moreover, the representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement were used for the purposes of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters of fact. Accordingly, the representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement should not be relied on as characterization of the actual state of facts about the Company, the Purchaser, the Seller, Seller Parent or Lanteris.
