Communication to Channels Partners

As a valued partner, I am thrilled to expand on our latest news. As announced in our press release, Movella will soon become a public company. We are merging with the Special Purpose Acquisition Company (or SPAC) Pathfinder Acquisition Corporation (Pathfinder) which trades on the NASDAQ symbol PFDR. Once the business combination is completed our shares will also trade on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange. This is great news for our company as it will allow us to bring meaning to movement on a larger scale.

Going public was one of the main goals that we announced for Movella when we merged mCube, Xsens, and Kinduct just over a year ago. I am very excited about the news and what it means for Movella and our customers. As a public company, we will have the opportunity to access to more capital to invest in our business and product development. Being a public company will also help us better serve customers together by giving more transparency into our business. That will make Movella even a stronger collaborative partner.

I want to highlight that while the announcement of the signing of our definitive merger agreement with Pathfinderis a significant milestone, this is not the conclusion of the transaction. We will keep you posted on relevant information as we are closing the transaction, which is currently expected to take place in the first quarter of 2023, subject to regulatory approvals, as well as approvals of Pathfinder and Movella shareholders and other customary closing conditions. However, this timing is subject to change due to a variety of factors, including regulatory factors and many factors beyond our control.

In the meantime, it remains business as usual at Movella. We remain committed to providing innovative solutions that move humanity forward. We expect those updates to be of even greater value to you. You can learn more about the announcement in the press release.

All of us here at Movella are excited by what lies ahead.

We truly appreciate your business and your support as we embark on our exciting new chapter.

 

Sincerely,

Ben Lee

CEO

Movella

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This communication contains “forward-looking statements” regarding Pathfinder, Movella, and the combined company. Statements in this communication that are not historical in nature may constitute forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements that refer to Pathfinder’s, Movella’s, or the combined company’s future expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, financial conditions, assumptions, performance, projections, forecasts, or estimates, including with respect to financial or other performance or valuation metrics or market size or opportunity, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this communication, and on the current expectations of Pathfinder’s or Movella’s management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “enable,” “estimate,” “expect,” “extend,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “opportunity,” “outlook,” “plan,” “position,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “see,” “seem,” “should,” “will,” “would,” and similar expressions, or the negative of such expressions, may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this communication include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the following: Pathfinder’s or Movella’s management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future; the anticipated timing of the closing of the Business Combination and the transactions contemplated thereby; the statements relating to the Francisco Partners financing, including the funds to be provided in connection therewith. 

These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond Pathfinder’s or Movella’s control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Although each of Pathfinder and Movella believes that it has a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this communication, each of Pathfinder and Movella caution you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known and projections of the future, which are inherently uncertain. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) Pathfinder’s and Movella’s ability to complete the Business Combination, including the Francisco Partners financing, during the anticipated timeframe or at all; (ii) Movella’s success in retaining or recruiting, or changes required in, officers, key employees, or directors following the Business Combination; (iii) the funds in the trust account being available to Pathfinder or the combined company; (iv) Pathfinder’s or the combined company’s ability to obtain additional financing to complete the Business Combination; (v) Pathfinder’s public securities’ liquidity and trading and those of the combined company; (vi) the lack of a market for Pathfinder’s or the combined company’s securities; (vii) the use of funds not held in the trust account or available to Pathfinder from interest income on the trust account balance; (viii) the trust account not being subject to claims of third parties; (ix) general economic conditions and Movella’s financial performance; (x) the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, macroeconomic conditions, and geopolitical crises; (xi) the number of Pathfinder shareholders voting against the business combination proposal; (xii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the definitive merger agreement; (xiii) the ability to achieve and maintain the listing of the combined company’s shares on a national securities exchange following the business combination; (xiv) changes adversely affecting the businesses in which Movella is engaged; (xv) management of growth; (xvi) Movella’s ability to execute on its business strategy and plans; (xvii) the result of future financing efforts; and (xviii) risks related to regulatory matters, as well as the factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” in Pathfinder’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, Pathfinder’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-252498), the registration statement on Form S-4 discussed above, and other documents filed by Pathfinder from time to time with the SEC.

If any of these risks materialize or the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither Pathfinder nor Movella presently know or that Pathfinder and Movella currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect Pathfinder’s and Movella’s expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this communication. Pathfinder and Movella anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause Pathfinder’s and Movella’s assessments to change. However, while Pathfinder and Movella may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, Pathfinder and Movella specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, except to the extent required by applicable law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Pathfinder’s and Movella’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this communication. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements.
