Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On June 3, 2021, Unisys Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Unify Square, Inc. (“Unify”), as more fully described under Item 8.01 below. The information in this Item 7.01, including the press release attached as Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. Such information shall not be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On June 3, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire Unify for $152.5 million on a cash-free, debt-free basis. The transaction is expected to close today. The purchase price is subject to customary adjustments based on closing cash, indebtedness and working capital. The Company is funding the cash consideration and acquisition-related costs with cash on hand. The acquisition agreement contains customary representations, warranties and indemnification provisions. The Company obtained representation and warranty insurance, which provides coverage for breaches of certain representations and warranties contained in the acquisition agreement, subject to deductibles and certain other terms and conditions.

Headquartered in Bellevue, Washington, and with offices in the United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland, India, Australia and Lithuania, Unify is a market leader in the provision of management and security software and services for collaboration and communication platforms. The acquisition is expected to enhance the Company’s digital workplace services solutions and enable the Company to deliver higher value solutions to its clients.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 8-K contains statements that are not historical facts but rather forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are usually identified by or are associated with such words as “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “anticipate” and similar terminology. Such forward-looking statements include those that address activities, events or developments that the Company or its management believes or anticipates may occur in the future, including earnings enhancements, synergies and other benefits from the Unify acquisition. All forward-looking statements are based upon the Company’s current expectations, various assumptions and data available from third parties. The Company’s expectations and assumptions are expressed in good faith, and the Company believes there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that such forward-looking statements will materialize or prove to be correct as forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual future results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the future results, performance or achievements expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements. Numerous risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those set out in the forward-looking statements, including: the risk that the Company may be unable to successfully integrate Unify or that integration costs exceed the Company’s expectations; the risk that the Company may not realize the benefits expected from the acquisition, including earnings enhancements and synergies; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement of the acquisition; the risk that the Company may not attract, motivate and retain experienced personnel in key positions; the risk that the Company may not effectively anticipate and respond to volatility and rapid technological innovation; the risk of adverse developments on the Company’s ability to grow revenue and expand margin in its Digital Workplace Services and Cloud and Infrastructure businesses; the risks of doing business internationally, particularly when a significant portion of the Company’s revenue is derived from international operations; the risk of cybersecurity breaches, which could result in significant costs and harm the Company’s business and reputation; and the other factors discussed in the Item 1A, “Risk Factors” sections in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, and in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission which are available at http://sec.gov. For any forward-looking statements contained in this or any other document, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company assumes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements in light of new information or future events except as required by law.
