This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends the Original Report to (i) furnish a revised version of the Original Presentation (the “Revised Presentation”) to correct the reported amount of unfunded backlog in the Original Presentation and to include a slide with the Revised Presentation to detail the change in unfunded backlog from the end of the Company’s first fiscal quarter ended August 2, 2025 to the end of its second fiscal quarter ended November 1, 2025, and (ii) for ease of reference, to provide an updated statement regarding the Company’s unfunded backlog under Item 8.01. Total unfunded backlog as of November 1, 2025, as disclosed on slides 3, 4 and 17 of the Original Presentation and on page 39 of the Company’s Quarterly Report on 10-Q filed December 10, 2025 (“Q2 10-Q”), was $3.0 billion, rather than $2.8 billion as previously reported in the Original Presentation and Q2 10-Q. Other than correcting this error, including the clarifying disclosure in Item 8.01, and including the additional slide in the Revised Presentation, all other information included in the Original Report is unchanged. The Revised Presentation is furnished with this Amendment as Exhibit 99.2 hereto.

Explanatory Note:

This Amendment amends the Current Report on Form 8-K of AeroVironment, Inc (the “Company”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 4, 2024 (the “Original Form 8-K”). On March 4, 2024, the Company held a conference call to discuss its third quarter financial results for the period ended January 27, 2024 (the “Q3 Results”). The Company attempted to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) the Original Form 8-K that furnished the press release and investor presentation relating to the Q3 Results prior to the commencement of the conference call in accordance with the Company’s usual practice; however, because the SEC’s EDGAR system experienced technical difficulties during the afternoon of March 4, 2024, the Original Form 8-K was not accepted by the SEC until after the conference call had commenced. Accordingly, and in accordance with the rules of the SEC, the Company is filing this Amendment to furnish a transcript of the conference call herewith as Exhibit 99.3. Except as described in this Explanatory Note and as set forth below, no other information in the Original Form 8-K is modified or amended hereby.

Item 2.02. Results of Operation and Financial Condition

Attached as Exhibit 99.3 hereto is a transcript of the conference call held on March 4, 2024 regarding the Company’s third quarter fiscal 2024 financial results for the period ended January 27, 2024. A copy of the transcript is also available on the investor relations section of the Company’s website at https://investor.avinc.com/events-and-presentations. The information contained on the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference into, and does not form a part of, this Current Report on Form 8-K/A.

The information furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, whether made before or after the date hereof, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
