Astera Labs grants Amazon a warrant for up to 3.26 million shares tied to $6.5 billion of purchases

Astera Labs issued a warrant for up to 3,262,299 common shares to an affiliate of its customer Amazon, at $142.82 per share, expiring February 5, 2033. The shares vest only as Amazon and its affiliates buy up to $6.5 billion of Astera smart fabric switch, signal conditioning and optical engine products. The filing puts the maximum grant-date fair value of the warrant at $280.0 million, so future dilution is tied directly to customer purchases.
