Item 8.01 Other Events On June 1, 2026, Uniti Group Inc. (“ Uniti” or the “ Company”) issued a press release to announce an offering of $1,140.71 million aggregate principal amount of secured fiber network revenue term notes (the “ Notes”) by its subsidiary, Kinetic ABS Issuer LLC (the “ Issuer”). The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act”), or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws. In connection with the offering of the Notes, the Issuer expects to (i) increase the maximum commitment under its existing liquidity funding note facility to reflect the increase in the transaction’s liquidity reserve requirements that would result from the issuance of the Notes and (ii) extend the maturity of the existing liquidity note facility to align with the final maturity date of the Notes. Uniti intends to use the net proceeds of the offering of the Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include success-based capital expenditures and/or repayment of outstanding debt. The Notes will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A under the Securities Act and outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
