This strategic move aims to bolster the company's financial position and accelerate its growth in the rapidly evolving tech landscape.
Details of the Public Offering
The underwritten public offering includes 2,200,000 shares of Ambiq's common stock.

It is important to note that the offering is contingent upon market conditions and other factors. As such, there is no guarantee regarding the completion, timing, or final terms of the offering. Investors should exercise caution and conduct thorough due diligence.
Underwriters and Legal Framework
BofA Securities and UBS Investment Bank have been appointed as joint lead book-running managers for this proposed offering. They will be supported by Needham & Company and Stifel, who will act as joint book-running managers. This collaboration underscores the significance of the offering in the financial markets.
A registration statement on Form S-1, which includes a prospectus, has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). However, this statement has not yet become effective. Consequently, the securities cannot be sold, and offers to buy cannot be accepted, until the registration statement is officially effective. The offering will be conducted solely through a prospectus, with copies available from the designated underwriters.
