Item

8.01. Other Events.

As previously disclosed on

a Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 27, 2026, Luxfer Holdings PLC, a

public limited company incorporated in England and Wales (the “Company”), entered into a Transaction Agreement with

Double Eagle Acquisition Buyer, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”) and newly formed holding company owned by funds

managed by Wynnchurch Capital, L.P., pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Buyer will acquire

the entire issued share capital of the Company (the “Transaction”), pursuant to a court sanctioned English law scheme

of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006.

In

connection with the Transaction, the Company filed with the SEC a preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A on August 26, 2026 (the

“Preliminary Proxy Statement”), and a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A on September 17, 2026 (the “Definitive

Proxy Statement”), which was first mailed to the Company’s shareholders on or about the same date, in connection with

a meeting of the holders of the Company’s ordinary shares convened with the permission of the High Court of Justice in England

and Wales (the “Scheme Meeting”) and a general meeting of the Company’s shareholders (the “Company

GM” and, together with the Scheme Meeting, the “Meetings”), in each case to be held on November 4, 2026,

at which the Company’s shareholders will be asked to vote on, among other things, proposals necessary to implement the Transaction.

Following

the filing of the Definitive Proxy Statement, and as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company is aware of two lawsuits

that have been filed by purported shareholders of the Company against the Company and members of the Company’s board of directors

(the “Company Board”) in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (captioned Johnson v. Luxfer Holdings PLC,

et al., No. 162890/2026, and Thompson v. Luxfer Holdings PLC, et al., No. 655883/2026) (collectively, the “Actions”).

The Actions generally allege, among other things, that the Definitive Proxy Statement omits material information regarding the Transaction

and seek, among other things, an injunction enjoining the Transaction until such time as the alleged disclosure deficiencies are corrected,

rescission of the Transaction or damages in the event the Transaction is consummated, and an award of costs, including reasonable attorneys’

and experts’ fees. The Company has also received demand letters from purported shareholders (collectively, the “Shareholder

Letters”) alleging, among other things, that the disclosures contained in the Preliminary Proxy Statement and Definitive Proxy

Statement are deficient and demanding that certain corrective disclosures be made. It is possible that additional, similar complaints

may be filed, the Actions may be amended, or additional demand letters from purported shareholders may be received.

The

Company believes that the allegations in the Actions and the Shareholder Letters are without merit and that no further disclosure is

required under applicable law. However, solely in order to avoid the risk that the Actions and the Shareholder Letters delay or otherwise

adversely affect the consummation of the Transaction, and to minimize the costs, risks and uncertainties inherent in litigation, and

without admitting any liability or wrongdoing, the Company has determined to voluntarily supplement the Definitive Proxy Statement with

the supplemental disclosures set forth below (the “Supplemental Disclosures”). Nothing in this Current Report on Form

8-K shall be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable law of any of the Supplemental Disclosures. To

the contrary, the Company specifically denies all allegations in the Actions and the Shareholder Letters, including that any additional

disclosure was or is required.

These

Supplemental Disclosures will not change the consideration to be paid to the Company’s shareholders in connection with the Transaction

or the timing of the Meetings. The Company Board continues to recommend that the Company’s shareholders vote “FOR”

each of the proposals to be voted on at the Meetings, as described in the Definitive Proxy Statement.

The

information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into the Definitive Proxy Statement. To the extent

that information in this Current Report on Form 8-K differs from or updates information contained in the Definitive Proxy Statement,

the information in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall supersede or supplement such information in the Definitive Proxy Statement.

1

Supplement

to Definitive Proxy Statement

This

supplemental information should be read in conjunction with the disclosures contained in the Definitive Proxy Statement, which in turn

should be read in its entirety. All page references are to the Definitive Proxy Statement. New text within restated language from the

Definitive Proxy Statement is indicated in bold, underlined text (e.g., bold, underlined text) and removed language within

the restated language from the Definitive Proxy Statement is indicated in strikethrough text (e.g., strikethrough text),

as applicable. The information contained herein speaks only as of October 26, 2026 unless the information indicates another date applies.

The

second full paragraph on page 31, under the heading “The Transaction–Background of the Transaction,” is hereby

amended and supplemented as follows:

Each

of the confidentiality agreements entered into by Luxfer in connection with the sale process contained a customary standstill provision

prohibiting potential counterparties from, among other things, offering to acquire or acquiring Luxfer without the prior consent of Luxfer,

in each case for an agreed-upon period of time, and certain of such standstill provisions would fall away after Luxfer

entered into a definitive agreement with a third party providing for a change of control transaction of Luxfer, and, as a result,

none of the standstill provisions currently prohibit any potential counterparty from making a confidential proposal to the Company Board. None of the confidentiality agreements entered into by Luxfer in connection with the sale process contained a “don’t

ask, don’t waive” provision.

The

fourth full paragraph beginning on page 47, under the heading “The Transaction–Opinion of the Company’s Financial

Advisor–Discounted Cash Flow Analysis,” is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Deutsche

Bank performed a discounted cash flow analysis to determine a range of implied present values per Company Ordinary Share. Deutsche Bank

applied discount rates ranging from 12.5% to 14.5% to estimates of the estimated future unlevered free cash flows of the Company for

the period from April 1, 2026 through 2030 calculated based upon the Financial Forecasts, and to a range of estimated terminal values

of the Company at the end of such period, respectively, to determine a range of implied enterprise values for the Company as of March

31, 2026. For purposes of its financial analyses, Deutsche Bank calculated unlevered free cash flow as (a) (i) for Q2-Q4 2026E, Management

Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, less approximately $2.9 million of cash expenses expected to be incurred in such period and which were excluded

from the calculation of Management Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA and (ii) for 2027E through 2030E, Management Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA,

in each case, less (b) depreciation and amortization and stock compensation expense, less (c) cash taxes, plus (d) depreciation and amortization,

less (e) capital expenditures, plus or less (f) change in net working capital. Utilizing

its professional judgment and experience, Deutsche Bank derived the foregoing range of discount rates by application of the

capital asset pricing model, which requires certain Company-specific inputs, including the Company’s target capital structure weightings,

the cost of long-term debt, future applicable marginal cash tax rate and a beta for the Company, as well as certain financial metrics

for the United States financial markets generally. The terminal value was calculated by applying multiples ranging from 7.0x to 9.5x,

which were selected by Deutsche Bank based on its professional judgment and experience, taking into account historical trading multiples

for the Company for the five years ended July 24, 2026, as well as the current trading multiple for the Company, to Company

management estimates of 2030 Management Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA reduced by $3 million of projected employee stock-based compensation

expenses. Deutsche Bank then subtracted the Company’s estimated net debt of approximately $43.7 million, and divided the result

by the number of fully diluted Company Ordinary Shares outstanding using the treasury method. For

purposes of this analysis, Deutsche Bank calculated the number of fully diluted Company Ordinary Shares taking into account 26,759,236

basic shares outstanding and 713,926 dilutive securities with a weighted average exercise price of $0.94 per share, in each case as provided

by Company management. This analysis resulted in a range of implied present values of Company Ordinary Shares as of March

31, 2026 of approximately $15.05 to $20.80 per Company Ordinary Share (rounded to the nearest $0.05). Deutsche Bank compared this range

of implied values per Company Ordinary Share to the closing price per Company Ordinary Share of $17.05 on July 24, 2026 and the Consideration

of $17.37 in cash per Company Ordinary Share.

The

third full paragraph and the list following the third full paragraph on page 49, under the heading “The Transaction–Opinion

of the Company’s Financial Advisor–Selected Companies Analysis,” are hereby amended as follows:

Deutsche

Bank reviewed and compared certain financial information and commonly used valuation measurements for the Company with corresponding

financial information and valuation measurements for  the following eight publicly-traded companies in the specialty

materials, cylinder and catalyst manufacturing industries (which we refer to as the “Deutsche Bank Selected Companies”):.

The

fourth full paragraph on page 49, under the heading “The Transaction–Opinion of the Company’s Financial Advisor–Selected

Companies Analysis,” is hereby amended as follows:

Although

none of the above Deutsche Bank Selected Companies is directly comparable to the Company, Deutsche Bank considered each

of them generally relevant for the purposes of this analysis, based on its professional judgment and experience as investment bankers,

taking into account several factors, including, among other things, the Company’s operational capabilities and financial profile

compared with those of the Deutsche Bank Selected Companies, the competitive landscape in which the Company and the Deutsche Bank Selected

Companies operate and the Company’s product offerings and those of the Deutsche Bank Selected Companies. Accordingly, the analysis

of publicly traded comparable companies was not simply mathematical. Rather, it involved complex considerations and qualitative judgments,

reflected in the opinion of Deutsche Bank, concerning differences in financial and operating characteristics of the Deutsche Bank Selected

Companies and other factors that could affect the public trading value of such companies.

The

second full paragraph and the table following the second full paragraph on page 50, under the heading “The Transaction–Opinion

The

third full paragraph on page 51, under the heading “The Transaction–Opinion of the Company’s Financial Advisor–Additional

Information,” is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Illustrative

Discounted Future Share Price Analysis. Deutsche Bank applied one-year forward EBITDA multiples ranging from 7.0x to 9.0x to the

Company’s 2028E Management Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA to calculate the Company’s estimated equity value on December 31, 2027

based on the projected net debt position of approximately $2.0 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2027 as provided

by management of the Company, and discounted the derived equity value using a cost of equity ranging from 13.0% to 15.5% on a present

value basis to July 24, 2026, which resulted in a range of implied present values per Company Ordinary Share of approximately $16.05

to $21.05 (rounded to the nearest $0.05).

The

fourth full paragraph on page 51, under the heading “The Transaction–Opinion of the Company’s Financial Advisor–Additional

Information,” is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Equity

Research Analyst Price Targets. Deutsche Bank reviewed two publicly available Wall Street research analyst price targets

for Company Ordinary Shares as of July 24, 2026, which indicated low to high price targets of $19.00 to $22.00 per Company Ordinary Share,

with a present value of $17.15 to $19.70 per Company Ordinary Share (rounded to the nearest $0.05) when discounted 12-months from the

respective report dates by 14.25%, the midpoint of the cost of equity of the Company derived using the capital asset pricing model as

described above under “—Discounted Cash Flow Analysis.” The public market trading price targets published by equity

research analysts do not necessarily reflect current market trading prices for Company Ordinary Shares.

The paragraph under the heading

“Interests of Certain Persons in the Transaction–Compensation Arrangements with Buyer” beginning on page 57 is

hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

As of the date of this

the Definitive Proxy Statement, none of the Company’s executive officers

has had

discussed or entered into any agreement with Buyer or any of its affiliates regarding employment with, or the right to purchase or participate

in the equity of, Buyer or one or more of its affiliates. Andrew Butcher, the Company’s

Chief Executive Officer, and representatives of Wynnchurch Capital, L.P. have had preliminary discussions regarding succession planning,

including Mr. Butcher and his teams' continued employment with Buyer or one of its affiliates following the closing of the Transaction.

As of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, no agreement has been reached regarding such employment or any equity participation

in Buyer or its affiliates, and no other executive officer of the Company has had any such discussions with Buyer or its affiliates.

Prior to or following the closing of the Transaction, however, some or all of the Luxfer executive officers may discuss or enter into

agreements with Buyer or any of its affiliates regarding employment with, or the right to purchase or participate in the equity of, Buyer

or one or more of its affiliates.

Cautionary

Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This

communication includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private

Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including with respect to the proposed Transaction, and readers are cautioned not to place

undue reliance on such statements. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the ability of Buyer and the Company

to complete the Transaction as contemplated by the transaction agreement, including statements about the Transaction, statements about

the expected timetable for completing the Transaction, the Company’s beliefs and expectations and statements about the benefits

sought to be achieved in the Transaction, and the potential effects of the Transaction on the Company. These statements are based upon

the current beliefs and expectations of the Company’s management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. There

can be no guarantees that the conditions to the closing of the proposed Transaction will be satisfied on the expected timetable or at

all. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results may differ materially from those

set forth in the forward-looking statements.

Risks

and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, uncertainties as to the timing of the proposed Transaction; the risk that competing

offers or acquisition proposals will be made; the possibility that various conditions to the consummation of the proposed Transaction

contained in the transaction agreement may not be satisfied or waived (including, but not limited to, the failure to obtain shareholder

approval and the failure to obtain the sanction of the High Court of Justice in England and Wales); the occurrence of any event, change

or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the transaction agreement; the effects of disruption from the transactions

contemplated by the transaction agreement and the impact of the announcement and pendency of the Transaction on the Company’s business,

including its ability to retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with customers; the risk that any announcements relating

to the Transaction could have adverse effects on the market price of the Company’s ordinary shares; the risk of any unexpected

costs or expenses resulting from the Transaction; the risk that shareholder litigation in connection with the Transaction may result

in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability; and other risks related to the Company’s business.

The

Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events

or otherwise, except to the extent required by law. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described

in the forward-looking statements can be found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025

and the Company’s other filings with the SEC.
