Frequently Asked Questions

An at-the-market offering is a way for a public company to sell shares of its stock directly into the existing stock market, typically over a period of time, at prevailing market prices. This allows companies to raise capital flexibly without the need for traditional underwritten offerings.

Carvana is refreshing its ATM program to ensure it has the flexibility to issue and sell shares of its Class A Common Stock as needed. This could be for general corporate purposes, to fund operations, strategic initiatives, or to manage its balance sheet.

This agreement updates and extends the terms of Carvana's previous ATM distribution agreements with its financial partners. It signifies a continued commitment to utilizing this capital-raising tool and ensures the company has up-to-date arrangements with its chosen intermediaries for future share sales.

The primary impact on existing shareholders is potential dilution, as new shares may be issued and sold.

Investors should watch the volume of shares sold and the prices at which they are sold.
