What is a prospectus supplement and a shelf registration statement?

A shelf registration statement (Form S-3) allows a company to register securities it plans to sell in the future without needing to file a new registration statement each time. A prospectus supplement is filed to update or supplement the information in the base prospectus included in the registration statement, often when securities are being offered.

Where can I find more information about the shares mentioned in the prospectus supplement?

Investors should refer to the underlying Form S-3 registration statement (File No. 333-281573) and any related prospectus supplements filed by Flex Ltd. with the SEC for detailed information regarding the securities.
