Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On November 10, 2025, Maplebear Inc. (the “Company”) issued a Shareholder Letter (the “Letter”) announcing its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025. A copy of the Letter is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, 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 into any other filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

On November 4, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved an increase to the Company’s previously announced share repurchase program, authorizing the purchase of up to an aggregate of $2.5 billion of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock” and such program, the “Share Repurchase Program”), up from the $1 billion authorized in the aggregate by the Board in June 2024, November 2024, and May 2025 (collectively, the “Existing Share Repurchase Program”). Approximately $290 million of capacity was remaining under the Existing Share Repurchase Program as of September 30, 2025. The Share Repurchase Program has no expiration date. Repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program may be made from time to time through open market repurchases, accelerated share repurchase programs, privately negotiated transactions, or any other transactions in accordance with applicable federal securities laws, 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 under the Exchange Act. The Company may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of shares of Common Stock under this authorization. Other than pursuant to the ASR Agreement (as defined below), once executed, the Company is not obligated under the Share Repurchase Program to acquire any particular amount of Common Stock, and the Company may terminate or suspend the Share Repurchase Program at any time. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased may depend on a variety of factors, including price, general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities.

On November 10, 2025, the Company announced that it intends to enter into an accelerated share repurchase agreement (the “ASR Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC to repurchase an aggregate of $250 million of Common Stock as part of the Share Repurchase Program. Transactions under the ASR Agreement are expected to begin on November 11, 2025, and final settlement under the ASR Agreement is expected to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2026.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact could be deemed forward-looking, including without limitation statements regarding potential repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program, entry into the ASR Agreement, and the total size and timing of commencement and final settlement of the transactions under the ASR Agreement. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements because they contain words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “target,” “toward,” “will,” or “would,” or the negative of these words or other similar terms or expressions. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors that may cause actual results or outcomes to be materially different from any future results or outcomes expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors include the risks described from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 filed with the SEC on August 8, 2025. You should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The Company has based these forward-looking statements primarily on information available to it as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K and its current expectations and projections about future events and trends that it believes may affect its business, financial condition, and results of operations. While the Company believes such information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, such information may be limited or incomplete. The Company’s statements should not be read to indicate that it has conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements. Moreover, the Company operates in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, and new risks may emerge from time to time. It is not possible for the Company to predict all risks, nor can the Company assess the impact of all factors on its business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements it may make. Except as required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation, and does not intend, to update these forward-looking statements.
