Item 2.05     Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

In order to align its strategy with market conditions to support its long-term success, BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: BBAI) (“BigBear.ai,” the “Company,” “we” or “us”), committed to a reduction in force (the “Reduction”), of approximately 7% of our workforce. We commenced the Reduction on August 29, 2022 upon notification to certain affected employees, and we completed notification of all affected employees on August 31, 2022. The Reduction has now been substantially completed.

As a result of the Reduction, we estimate that we will incur approximately $1.5 million of costs and expenses, primarily comprising severance and termination-related costs, which we expect to recognize in the third quarter of 2022.

The Company expects the Reduction to yield substantial reductions in operating costs and the Reduction is one component of a larger strategy to reduce cash burn through cost savings initiatives, streamline operations and achieve operational efficiencies through continued integration.

Although BigBear.ai believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider any cautionary statements and other disclosures, including the statements made under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
