record date financial
"The Board has established the close of business on June 15, 2026, as the new record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the 2026 Annual Meeting."
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.
Rule 14a-8 regulatory
"Additionally, to be included in the Company’s proxy materials, proposals must comply with the proxy rules relating to stockholder proposals, in particular Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)."
Rule 14a-8 is a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regulation that lets eligible shareholders put proposals on a public company’s proxy ballot for an annual meeting, provided they meet basic ownership and filing requirements. It matters to investors because it creates a formal way to raise governance or strategic issues and force a company-wide vote—like getting an item onto the agenda of a neighborhood association meeting once you’ve lived there long enough—so shareholders can push for change or influence management decisions.
Rule 14a-19(b) regulatory
"As required by the Company’s bylaws, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Board’s nominees must provide the Company with the information required by Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act."
proxy materials financial
"If a stockholder desires to present a proposal for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2026 Annual Meeting, the proposal must be submitted in writing to us for receipt not later than June 15 2026."
Proxy materials are the packet of documents sent to shareholders that explain items to be voted on at a company meeting and include the actual ballot or instructions for casting a vote. Think of them as a voting packet that lays out who’s running the company, major proposals (like pay, mergers, or board changes), and arguments for and against each item. Investors care because those votes shape corporate direction, affect risk and future profits, and can influence share value.

Item 8.01 Other Events
On June 2, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Owlet, Inc. (the “Company” ) postponed the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2026 Annual Meeting”) from July 10, 2026 to Wednesday, August 12, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time, due to scheduling conflicts. The 2026 Annual Meeting will be held via remote communication. The Board has established the close of business on June 15, 2026, as the new record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the 2026 Annual Meeting.
Because the date of the 2026 Annual Meeting has been changed by more than 30 days from the first anniversary of the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Board has set a new deadline for the receipt of any stockholder proposals submitted for the 2026 Annual Meeting, and any previously disclosed deadline for the submission of stockholder proposals is no longer applicable. If a stockholder desires to present a proposal for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2026 Annual Meeting, the proposal must be submitted in writing to us for receipt not later than June 15 2026. Additionally, to be included in the Company’s proxy materials, proposals must comply with the proxy rules relating to stockholder proposals, in particular Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Stockholders who wish to raise a proposal for consideration at the 2026 Annual Meeting, but who do not wish to submit a proposal for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8, should comply with the Company’s bylaws and deliver to the Company a copy of their proposal no later than June 15 2026. As required by the Company’s bylaws, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Board’s nominees must provide the Company with the information required by Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act. If a stockholder fails to timely provide such notice, the respective proposal need not be addressed in the Company’s proxy materials and the proxies may exercise their discretionary voting authority if the proposal is raised at the 2026 Annual Meeting. In either case, proposals should be sent to Owlet, Inc., 2940 West Maple Loop Drive, Suite 203, Lehi, Utah 84048 with attention to our Corporate Secretary.
