AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--CS Disco, Inc.

In addition, the Selling Stockholders expect to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 500,000 shares of common stock at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. DISCO will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock offered by the Selling Stockholders. The offering is subject to market and other conditions, and there can be no assurance as to whether or when the offering may be completed.
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and BofA Securities Inc. are acting as lead book-running managers and representatives of the underwriters for the proposed offering.
A registration statement on Form S-1 relating to the proposed offering has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission but has not yet become effective. The proposed offering will be made only by means of a prospectus forming part of the registration statement relating to the offering. Copies of the preliminary prospectus relating to the proposed offering, when available, may be obtained from: J.P.
