Item 8.01			Other Events

As of February 27, 2025, AppLovin Corporation (the “Company”) had approximately $1.772 billion remaining available under its share repurchase program (the “Existing Repurchase Maximum Amount”), of which the amount that may be repurchased in any fiscal quarter was limited to the amount of the Company’s Free Cash Flow (as defined in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission) in the preceding fiscal quarter.

On February 28, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the modification of the share repurchase program as follows: (i) $500 million shall be immediately available for repurchase of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Current Limit”), notwithstanding the amount that otherwise would have remained available during the quarter under the prior Free Cash Flow limitation, and (ii) the Current Limit shall be increased in future quarters by the amount of Free Cash Flow generated in the preceding fiscal quarter, with the Current Limit and any increases to be carried forward and remain available for future repurchases if not used and the aggregate amount that may be repurchased not to exceed the Existing Repurchase Maximum Amount. The modifications do not change the Existing Repurchase Maximum Amount.

Repurchases may be made from time to time through open market purchases or through privately negotiated transactions subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other relevant factors. Open market repurchases may be structured to occur in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10b-18. The Company may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of its shares under this authorization. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of its Class A common stock, and may be suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion.
