Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Ads-Tec Energy Public Ltd Co reported EUR 7.352 million in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026, down 50% from EUR 14.614 million in the prior-year period. Charging revenue was EUR 2.383 million versus EUR 9.804 million; Service revenue was EUR 4.541 million and represented 61.8% of revenue. Net loss was EUR 42.025 million, compared with EUR 14.766 million.

Operating cash outflow was EUR 18.657 million, versus EUR 30.196 million. Cash and cash equivalents were EUR 4.589 million as of June 30, 2026. Available shareholder credit lines totaled EUR 56.4 million, including EUR 41.1 million undrawn; the business plan assumes EUR 30 million in drawings and forecasts positive cash availability for the next 12 months. Management nevertheless concluded that substantial doubt remains about the company's ability to continue as a going concern, citing recurring losses, negative operating cash flows and uncertainty about forecasts and financing.

Warrant liabilities were EUR 11.396 million as of June 30, 2026, versus EUR 54.808 million as of December 31, 2025. Subscription-right exercises generated EUR 7.947 million; rights to purchase 2,000,000 Ordinary Shares remained exercisable until December 31, 2029. The company is seeking an equity investor to acquire up to 51% of its large-scale battery project and expects it to reach ready-to-build in Q4 2026.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

going concern financial
"ability to continue as a going concern"
Going concern is the accounting assumption that a company will keep operating and meeting its obligations for the foreseeable future. The phrase matters most when a company or its auditors disclose substantial doubt about it, a formal warning that the business may not have enough resources to continue without raising money, restructuring, or selling assets. That language in a filing or press release signals elevated financial risk.
warrant liabilities financial
"remeasurement of warrant liabilities"
Warrant liabilities are the financial obligations a company records when it grants warrants—special rights allowing someone to buy shares at a set price in the future. If the warrants are expected to be exercised, they are treated as a liability because the company might need to deliver shares or cash later. This matters to investors because it affects the company’s reported financial health and the potential dilution of existing shares.
gross margin financial
"gross margin decreased to negative 93.1%"
Gross margin is the difference between how much money a company makes from selling its products and how much it costs to produce them, expressed as a percentage of sales. It shows how efficiently a company is turning sales into profit before other expenses like marketing or salaries. Higher gross margin means the company keeps more money from each sale, which is a good sign of financial health.
ready-to-build (RTB) technical
"ready-to-build (RTB) milestone in Q4 2026"
Own & Operate technical
"Own & Operate business model"
Own & operate means a company both holds legal title to an asset (like a building, factory, or vessel) and is responsible for running its day-to-day functions. For investors this matters because ownership ties the company to the asset’s value while operating it creates the ongoing revenue, costs and risks—think of it like buying a rental property and also acting as the landlord, so you get income but also handle upkeep and tenant issues.
subscription rights financial
"subscription rights to purchase up to an aggregate"
Subscription rights are short-term privileges given to existing shareholders to buy additional new shares before the general public, typically at a set price and in proportion to their current holdings. Think of it as getting a coupon for first dibs on extra slices of a pizza so your share of the pie doesn’t shrink; exercising them can be a cheaper way to maintain your ownership and voting power, while ignoring them can reduce your stake and potential future earnings.

On September 30, 2026, ADS-TEC ENERGY PLC (the “Company”) reported its financial and operational results as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 hereto, respectively.

 

This 6-K and the accompanying exhibits are hereby incorporated by reference into the Company’s registration statements on Form F-3 (File No. 333-262281, 333-276788, 333-284850) and Form S-8 (File No. 333-263153), including all amendments thereto, filed with the SEC, to be a part thereof from the date on which this report is submitted, to the extent not superseded by documents or reports subsequently filed or furnished.

 

This Form 6-K includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believe,” “hope,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include the Company’s expectations with respect to future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside the Company’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include but are not limited to risks and uncertainties incorporated by reference under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 20-F (SEC File No. 001-41188) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 15, 2026, and in the Company’s other filings with the SEC. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company does not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

2.1 Basis of preparation

 

Applied IFRS

 

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of ADSE for the six months ended June 30, 2026, have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all disclosures that would otherwise be required in a complete set of financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s last annual financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2025 (“last annual financial statements”). However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in ADSE’s financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.

 

ADSE’s interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The reporting periods are the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. The interim financial statements are presented in Euro, which is the functional currency of ADSE. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise indicated. In some cases, rounding could mean that values in this report do not add up to the exact sum given or percentages do not equal the values presented.

 

2.2 Material uncertainty regarding the ability to continue as a going concern

 

Management assessed the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern using all information available about the future, focusing on the twelve-month period after the issuance date of the financial statements. Historically, the Company has funded its operations primarily through capital raises and shareholder loans. Since its inception, the Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations, including net losses of kEUR 42,025 for the first half of financial year 2026, kEUR 55,878 for the financial year 2025 and kEUR 97,959 for the financial year 2024. The Company has decreased its inventory stock from kEUR 63,666 as of December 31, 2024 to kEUR 51,010 as of December 31, 2025 and to kEUR 48,818 as of June 30, 2026. In the first half of the financial year 2026 the Company has significantly decreased its long-term and short-term loans and payables position in total (2024: kEUR 126,381 and kEUR 61,834; 2025: kEUR 59,184 and kEUR 41,609; HY 2026: kEUR 27,276 and kEUR 46,560).

 

For the fiscal years 2024 and 2025, the revenue stream “Charging” mainly includes the production and delivery of ChargeBox (CBX) and ChargePost (CPT). Revenue from the CBX and CPT is recognized once the product is transferred to the customer. In 2025, revenues from this stream declined to 83.8 Mio. EUR, or 82%, compared to 2024, primarily due to the insolvency of a key customer in the EV-charging hardware business. In addition, some customers did not manage to roll out their stock and did not generate new demand. Management consequently revised its strategy and began targeting customers that purchase smaller packages containing fewer units. Customers initially test these units before expanding their installed base, resulting in smaller orders spread over a longer period. In parallel, management began using chargers held in inventory to launch an Own & Operate business model that generates revenue from charging, advertising and energy management, also offering this model to customers.

 

The revenue stream “Service” increased by EUR 4.7 million, or 83%, from the year ended December 31, 2024, to December 31, 2025, reflecting continued expansion of the installed base and demonstrating the growing contribution of recurring revenue streams. This development continued in 2026 with service revenue amounting to EUR 4.5 million in the first half of financial year 2026.

 

Finally, the revenue stream “Commercial and industrial” in fiscal year 2024 and 2025 includes the delivery of a large-scale modular battery storage solution. Revenues in this business line increased in 2025 by kEUR 513, or 31%, compared to 2024, primarily due to the timing of project execution. The “Commercial and industrial” business line only began generating commercial activity in the second half of 2025, and as a result, many projects were still in the early stages of delivery or had not yet progressed to revenue recognition by year-end. While the Company has approximately EUR 156 million in pending project proposals and has established an order backlog of approximately EUR 18 million, revenues from these projects are expected to be recognized in future periods as delivery progresses.

 

During the first half of 2026, the Company completed several transactions that enhanced its capital structure. These transactions included the acquisition and partial cancellation of warrants related to convertible notes, the repricing and exercise of certain warrants related to shareholder loans, and the issuance and partial exercise of subscription rights by certain investors. As a result, the Company significantly reduced its warrant exposure and strengthened its equity position.

Accounting policies

 

The Company plans to intensify sales efforts across Europe and the US with new staff and reduce working capital. In addition, the Company will continue to invest in the development, redesign and cost-optimization programs for existing and new products as well as further productivity increases in operations and continue to expand its business model into a full-service provider model, enabling multi-revenue streams including ultra-fast charging, energy trading and advertising. As of the date of this report, the Company has installed 16 CPT units under its Own & Operate model, which have started generating sales from charging and advertising.

 

As of June 30, 2026, the Company has total available credit lines from shareholders of EUR 56.4 million, of which EUR 41.1 million undrawn. The maturity of the loans was extended to July 2027. The Company’s business plan assumes drawings of EUR 30 million and forecasts that the Company will maintain positive cash availability throughout the upcoming 12 months.

 

The Company is advancing the development of the large-scale battery project to ready-to-build (“RTB”), which we expect to achieve in Q4 2026. Thereafter, the Company intends to seek an equity investor to sell up to 51% of the project. We are in talks with multiple parties. Management and its advisers are constantly monitoring the relevant equity and debt capital markets that are relevant to the Company.

 

There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving its operational and strategic plans or that any additional financing will be available in a timely manner or on acceptable terms.

 

Even though the Company deems a successful business development and an improvement in cash flow generation and operating result to be very likely, the Company has concluded, based on its recurring losses from operations since inception, that there is still substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, as cash flows generated by its operating activities may deviate significantly from the Company’s forecast and its ability to secure additional financing is uncertain. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

 

2.3 New accounting standards and interpretations

 

ADSE applied all effective standards and interpretations issued by the IASB and the IFRS IC in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements where their application was required for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026. However, none of the new accounting standards had an impact on ADSE, as they were either not relevant to ADSE’s activities or did not require accounting treatment inconsistent with ADSE’s current accounting policies.

 

New accounting standards and amendments to standards or interpretations effective as of January 1, 2026:

 

Standard   Name   Effective date
IFRS 9 & IFRS 7   Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments: Classification and measurement of financial instruments   Jan. 01, 2026
IFRS 9 & IFRS 7   Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments: Contracts referencing nature-dependent electricity   Jan. 01, 2026

 

The standards and amendments to standards and interpretations below have been published by the IASB but are not mandatorily effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026. ADSE has therefore not early adopted them.

 

Standard   Name   Effective date
IFRS 18   Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements   Jan. 01, 2027
IFRS 19   Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures   Jan. 01, 2027

 

On April 09, 2024, the IASB published IFRS 18 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which is effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027. ADSE is currently analyzing the expected impact of the initial application of IFRS 18. Other accounting standards issued by the IASB that are not yet applied or that become effective in the future are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Significant events and transactions

 

3. Significant events and transactions

 

The following significant events and transactions have occurred since December 31, 2025.

 

Shareholder loans

 

During the reporting period, the credit facilities under two shareholder loans were increased and the applicable interest rates were amended. Additional drawdowns were made under both facilities. Furthermore, the maturity dates of these two shareholder loans, as well as of an additional shareholder loan, were extended. Please refer to Note 4.2.7.

 

Repurchase of warrants related to convertible notes

 

In April 2026, Lucerne Capital Master Fund L.P. acquired the rights and warrants related to the May 1, 2025 financing through convertible notes agreements for cash consideration of kUSD 12,500. Subsequently, the Company and Lucerne Capital Master Fund entered into a cancellation agreement pursuant to which these rights and warrants were cancelled for total consideration of kUSD 12,557. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had made a partial payment of kUSD 5,000 (kEUR 4,245), resulting in the cancellation of 742,924 warrants, while 1,084,360 warrants remained outstanding. Please refer to Note 4.2.5.

 

Exercise of warrants

 

Following a reduction of the exercise price from USD 6.20 to USD 1.00 per share on April 9, 2026, 5,172,045 Warrants relating to shareholder loans were exercised, generating proceeds of kUSD 5,172 and resulting in the issuance of 5,172,045 Ordinary Shares. In addition, 40,859 public warrants were exercised during the first half of fiscal year 2026, generating cash proceeds of kUSD 470.

 

As a result, the carrying value of the Company’s warrant liability decreased from kEUR 54,809 as of December 31, 2025, to kEUR 11,396 as of June 30, 2026.

 

Please refer to Note 4.2.5.

 

Issue of Subscription Rights

 

In May 2026, the Company entered into subscription agreements with certain investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue non-transferable subscription rights to purchase up to an aggregate of 11,324,000 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of $1.00 per Ordinary Share, in exchange for support in connection with the Company’s efforts to simplify its capital structure. On May 8, 2026, and May 28, 2026, investors exercised their rights to subscribe for 9,324,000 Ordinary Shares. As of June 30, 2026, 2,000,000 Ordinary Shares remain outstanding and are exercisable until December 31, 2029.

 

The Company received gross proceeds of kUSD 9.324 (kEUR 7,947) from the exercise of the subscription rights. The Company intends to use the proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, capital expenditure, and other business investments.

 

Please refer to Note 4.2.4.

4.1.2 Finance result

 

The finance income and expenses recognized in profit or loss are as follows:

 

    For the six months ended
June 30,
 
kEUR   2026     2025  
Finance income from remeasurement of warrant liabilities     13,794       24,909  
Foreign currency gains     2,956       13,833  
Income from other interest and similar income     1       1

Other interest expense     -       -  
Finance expenses     -32,763       -23,613  
Net finance result     -16,012       15,130  

 

Finance income from remeasurement of warrant liabilities in the first half of 2026 in the amount of kEUR 13,794 (2025: kEUR 24,909) resulted from the remeasurement of the fair value of public and private warrant liabilities, warrant liabilities from shareholder loans and warrant liabilities from the convertible notes and was caused by a decline in ADSE’s share price. The foreign currency gains mainly resulted from the valuation of the warrants which are denominated in USD.

 

In the first half of 2026, finance expense from remeasurement of warrant liabilities in the amount of kEUR 28,898 resulted from the remeasurement of the fair value of public and private warrant liabilities, warrant liabilities from shareholder loans and warrant liabilities from capital increases.

 

In 2026, interest expenses from shareholder loans amounted to kEUR 786 (2025: kEUR 19,332). This resulted mainly from the effective interest of the shareholder loan.

4.2.3 Other accrued items

 

As of December 31, 2025, other accrued items included lender warrants for which the exercise conditions had not been met, as the related shareholder loans had not been drawn down. The lender warrants were initially recognized at their fair value on the grant date, adjusted for a 5% probability of drawdown of the related shareholder loans based on management’s assessment and ADSE’s projected cash flow requirements.

 

Following the restructuring of ADSE’s shareholder loans (please also refer to Note 4.2.7), management has concluded that these shareholder loans are no longer expected to be drawn down in the future. Consequently, other accrued items relating to the lender warrants were derecognized.

 

4.2.4 Equity

 

The changes in the various components of equity are shown in ADSE’s statements of changes in equity for the past two half-year periods.

 

The issued and outstanding shares as of June 30, 2026, and as of June 30, 2025, are shown in the table below.

In the first half of financial year 2025, the exercise of public, private and shareholder warrants increased the number of outstanding shares by 2,468,837 shares and led to an increase in capital reserves of kEUR 34,168. Moreover, the conversion of debt from the convertible note into equity resulted in an issue of 922,195 shares which increased the capital reserve by kEUR 7,011.

 

In the first half of financial year 2026, 5,212,904 public warrants and warrants related to shareholder loans were exercised, which led to an increase in capital reserves of kEUR 52,179.

 

On May 8, 2026, and May 28, 2026, the Company granted non-transferable subscription rights to certain investors to purchase up to an aggregate of 11,324,000 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of USD 1.00 per Ordinary Share, in exchange for support in connection with the Company’s efforts to simplify its capital structure. On May 8, 2026, 6,324,000 Ordinary Shares were exercised, and on May 28, 2026, a further 3,000,000 Ordinary Shares were exercised. As of June 30, 2026, 2,000,000 Ordinary Shares remain outstanding and are exercisable until December 31, 2029.

 

Based on management’s judgment, the transaction qualifies as an equity transaction with owners acting in their capacity as owners and therefore falls within the scope of IAS 1.109. In accordance with IAS 1.109, transactions with owners in their capacity as owners are recognized directly in equity and do not affect profit or loss. Consequently, the fair value of the subscription rights at the grant date, amounting to kEUR 100,319 (kUSD 117,328), was recognized within capital reserves, with a corresponding reduction of retained earnings.

 

Upon the exercise of the subscription rights, the Company received gross cash proceeds of kEUR 7,947 (kUSD 9,324). Net of transaction costs recognized directly in equity, the exercise of the subscription rights resulted in an increase of share capital of EUR 798 and an increase in capital reserves of kEUR 7,852.

Seasonal business

 

5. Seasonal business

 

The business performance of ADSE is not subject to regular seasonal or cyclical fluctuations that affect the unaudited interim condensed financial statements. Thus, the results of the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, may not be indicative of the full year.

 

6. Segment reporting

 

Information reported to ADSE’s chief operating decision maker (CODM) for the purposes of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance is focused on the geographic regions of ADSE’s business activities. Therefore, ADSE manages its operations based on two operating segments corresponding to its business activities in Europe and North America.

 

The CODM has been identified as the board of directors of ADSE Holdco. The board of directors regularly reviews operating results and makes decisions about the allocation of ADSE’s resources. ADSE’s focus is on the research, development and manufacturing of products and services in the fields of energy management, energy storage and e-mobility.

 

ADSE evaluates segmental performance based on segment revenue and segment earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). Inter-segment sales are priced along the same lines as sales to external customers.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

 

 

Six months ended June 30, 2026

 

This operating and financial review should be read together with the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of ADS-TEC Energy PLC (the “Company”) and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “ADSE”), and the related notes for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as well as the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. The interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and should be read in conjunction with the last annual financial statements. This discussion contains forward-looking statements involving risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those anticipated.

 

Overview

 

ADSE develops, produces and markets battery-buffered electric vehicle charging systems, battery energy storage systems, software and cloud-based services. Its offering includes charging hardware, service and maintenance solutions, intelligent control and monitoring, and commercial and industrial battery storage applications.

 

ADSE generates revenue primarily through the sale of energy storage and charging products, related services, and subscriptions to the Big-LinX platform. With its monitoring and control capabilities, Big-LinX enables proactive system management, rapid service response, and supports parts and performance warranties. ADSE serves two core markets: battery energy storage systems for commercial and industrial customers, and battery-buffered high-power charging infrastructure. Additionally, ADSE has developed a new business model “Own & Operate”, under which it acts as a charge point operator, operating its own charging infrastructure at selected locations across Germany. This model combines charging, energy trading, advertising and other energy-related services.

 

Since its founding in 2008, ads-tec Energy GmbH, ADSE’s principal operating subsidiary, has been dedicated to the development, production, and commercialization of battery-buffered energy solutions, subscription-based services, and related products. Throughout its history, ADSE has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities while supporting its growth and business development initiatives. ADSE has funded its operations primarily through capital contributions, shareholder loans and customer payments.

 

Key Factors Affecting Operating Results

 

Battery-Buffered EV Charging Systems

 

EV Adoption

 

Demand for ADSE charging solutions depends on EV adoption, customer rollout schedules, access to charging sites and grid capacity, and customers’ financing and purchasing decisions. Revenue associated with the sale of ADSE’s charging solutions declined substantially in the first half of 2026 as the Company continued its strategic transition and addressed customers purchasing smaller unit packages over longer deployment periods.

 

Customer Concentration

 

ADSE’s revenue has historically been concentrated among a limited number of customers. Customer concentration decreased over the past years, with revenue from two major customers amounting to EUR 1.1 million and EUR 0.9 million, respectively, compared with EUR 6.6 million and EUR 1.3 million, respectively, in the prior-year period. Customer concentration may, however, fluctuate and could increase in future periods.

 

Production Planning and Inventory Management

 

ADSE’s operating results may be affected by inventory levels and the valuation of inventories. Inventories decreased from EUR 51.0 million as of December 31, 2025 to EUR 48.8 million as of June 30, 2026, and no additional inventory write-downs were recognized in the first half of 2026. ADSE continues to focus on reducing existing inventory levels and aligning production with realized customer demand.

 

 

Battery Energy Storage Systems

 

ADSE’s battery storage business is closely linked to the transition toward renewable and CO₂-neutral energy systems. While ADSE’s focus in 2025 was on battery-buffered EV charging solutions, it expanded its energy storage portfolio with two new systems. Initial customer projects have validated the benefits of these solutions and support future market expansion. However, continued growth depends on the development of the battery storage market, customer adoption, regulatory conditions, energy prices, and broader macroeconomic factors.

 

The Company is developing a large-scale battery storage project in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, with a planned capacity of approximately 1 GW and an initial storage volume of approximately 4 GWh (the “SKM Project”). The project is intended to be deployed as a utility-scale battery energy storage system.

 

It is designed as an integrated energy system, combining large-scale battery storage with photovoltaic generation. This co-location enhances economic performance by enabling optimized energy sourcing (e.g., charging from on-site solar) and improved revenue stacking across multiple markets, and also reflects a broader strategic shift toward hybrid energy infrastructure, where storage is tightly coupled with renewable generation.

 

The SKM Project is structured to operate as a long-term infrastructure asset and is intended to support multiple applications, including participation in energy trading, ancillary services and capacity markets, subject to applicable market conditions and regulatory frameworks. In this context, it is expected to contribute to the Company’s broader objective of expanding recurring and infrastructure-related revenue streams.

 

The SKM Project is currently in the development phase. To date, the Company has secured key elements required for project development, including site selection and long-term land access through contractual arrangements. In addition, the Company has progressed the grid connection process and has obtained grid connection capacity reservation, subject to the finalization of the grid connection agreement. The Company has also made progress in the permitting process, including the preparation and submission of required documentation and engagement with relevant authorities.

 

The project remains subject to the completion of the construction permitting process and the receipt of final regulatory approvals. In parallel, the Company is advancing technical planning and has already secured suppliers for electrical components, as well as initiated discussions with engineering and construction partners, in preparation for the potential construction phase.

 

Recently, the Company began seeking an equity investor to acquire up to 51% of the large-scale battery project. The level of investor interest and the progress of preliminary discussions support the Company’s expectation that the project will achieve the ready-to-build (RTB) milestone in Q4 2026 and will further progress towards commercial-operation-date (COD) thereafter.

 

Financing and Capital Structure

 

During the period, ADSE increased and extended shareholder loan facilities, repriced and exercised certain warrants, issued subscription rights, and partially repurchased warrants related to convertible notes. These transactions strengthened equity and reduced warrant liabilities, but operating cash flow remained negative.

 

Components of Results of Operations

 

Revenue

 

Revenue comprises Service, Charging, Own & Operate, Battery Energy Storage Systems and Other. Revenue is recognized based on the nature of the relevant customer contract, including point-in-time recognition for transferred products and over-time recognition where applicable.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales includes materials, production personnel, depreciation and amortization, field service, support and other production-related expenses.

 

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

 

Gross profit is revenue less cost of sales and gross margin is gross profit as a percentage of revenue. ADSE offers a range of products that vary widely in price and associated margin. Accordingly, ADSE’s gross profit and gross margin vary from period to period due to revenue levels, product mix, new product introductions and ADSE’s efforts to optimize its operations and supply chain.

Total revenue decreased by EUR 7.3 million, or approximately 50%, to EUR 7.4 million from EUR 14.6 million in the prior-year period, principally due to the decrease in Charging revenue.

 

The revenue stream “Charging” primarily includes the production and delivery of ChargeBox (CBX) and ChargePost (CPT). Revenue from CBX and CPT is recognized once the product is transferred to the customer. Charging revenue decreased by EUR 7.4 million, or approximately 76%, to EUR 2.4 million. The decrease primarily reflected lower demand from customers driven primarily by weaker momentum in the electric vehicle market, which has resulted in lower demand for charging infrastructure, as well as the ongoing challenging macroeconomic conditions. Charging revenues are expected to increase during the second half of 2026.

 

Service revenue is recognized in the period during which the services are rendered. Service revenue remained broadly stable at EUR 4.5 million. It represented approximately 61.8% of total revenue in the first half of 2026 and was ADSE’s largest revenue stream during the period.

 

The Own & Operate business model is capital intensive and, due to limited funding available to date, its expansion has progressed more slowly than originally planned. In the reporting period, the Own & Operate business generated initial revenue of EUR 0.1 million.

 

Revenue from Battery Energy Storage System (BESS or C&I) decreased by EUR 30 thousand, or approximately 29%, to EUR 73 thousand in the six months ended June 30, 2026. Revenue remained limited because projects typically require six to nine months to progress from contract award to revenue recognition. As a result, orders secured in 2025 are expected to contribute primarily to revenues in the second half of 2026. Although order intake was relatively weak in the first half of 2026, it began to improve during the third quarter and is expected to continue gaining momentum through year-end.

 

On a geographic basis, external revenue in Europe decreased by EUR 6.8 million, or approximately 49%, to EUR 7.0 million, primarily reflecting lower Charging revenue. External revenue in North America decreased by EUR 0.5 million, or approximately 58%, to EUR 0.3 million, reflecting lower Charging revenue as ADSE continued to prioritize its strategic transition over near-term sales growth in the region.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales decreased by EUR 7.1 million, or 33%, to EUR 14.2 million, primarily reflecting lower material costs due to lower sales volumes. This decrease was partly offset by increases of EUR 0.4 million in depreciation and amortization and EUR 0.7 million in other expenses, while personnel expenses remained broadly stable. No new inventory write-downs were recognized in the period.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross loss increased by EUR 0.2 million to EUR 6.8 million, and gross margin decreased to negative 93.1% from negative 45.6%. The deterioration in gross margin reflected the significant decrease in revenue, while cost of sales decreased by only 33%, as personnel expenses remained broadly stable and depreciation and amortization increased.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses decreased by EUR 0.2 million, or 5%, to EUR 4.2 million.

 

Selling, General and Administrative

 

SG&A expenses decreased by EUR 3.4 million, or 18%, to EUR 15.2 million, primarily due to lower legal and consulting fees, which decreased from EUR 5.0 million to EUR 2.5 million.

 

Other Income and Other Expenses

 

Other income increased by EUR 0.1 million to EUR 0.3 million, while other expenses decreased by EUR 0.4 million to EUR 0.1 million.

 

Net Finance Result

 

The net finance result decreased by EUR 31.1 million, shifting from net finance income of EUR 15.1 million in the prior-year period to net finance expense of EUR 16.0 million in the first half of 2026. Finance income decreased by EUR 22.0 million, primarily due to a decrease in income from the remeasurement of warrant liabilities from EUR 24.9 million to EUR 13.8 million and a decrease in foreign currency gains from EUR 13.8 million to EUR 3.0 million. Remeasurement income in the first half of 2026 resulted from the decline in ADSE’s share price, while foreign currency gains arose primarily from the valuation of warrant liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars.

 

4

 

Finance expenses increased by EUR 9.2 million, primarily due to an increase in expenses from the remeasurement of warrant liabilities from EUR 0.1 million to EUR 28.9 million. The remeasurement expenses in the first half of 2026 related to public and private warrant liabilities, warrant liabilities associated with shareholder loans and warrant liabilities associated with capital increases. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in interest expense on shareholder loans from EUR 19.3 million to EUR 0.8 million and the absence of interest expense on the convertible note, compared with EUR 1.6 million in the prior-year period.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income tax benefits were EUR 0.2 million, compared with EUR 0.1 million in the prior-year period.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Sources of Liquidity and Going Concern

 

ADSE has historically funded its operations through capital raises, shareholder loans, proceeds from its operations and customer payments. As of June 30, 2026, cash and cash equivalents were EUR 4.6 million, compared with EUR 7.0 million as of December 31, 2025. Current loans and borrowings were EUR 15.9 million, compared to EUR 5.0 million as of December 31, 2025.

 

In the first half of 2026, ADSE received proceeds of EUR 10.2 million from shareholder loans, EUR 7.9 million from the issuance of shares and EUR 4.8 million from the exercise of warrants. These inflows were partially offset by EUR 4.2 million paid to repurchase warrants and EUR 0.7 million of lease repayments, resulting in net cash provided by financing activities of EUR 18.0 million.

 

As of June 30, 2026, total available shareholder credit lines were EUR 56.4 million, of which EUR 41.1 million was undrawn. Certain shareholder loan maturities were extended to July 31, 2027, while another shareholder loan was extended to July 31, 2026. Management’s business plan assumes additional drawings of EUR 30.0 million under these facilities and forecasts that ADSE will remain cash positive throughout the twelve months following issuance of the Interim Financial Statements.

 

In addition, ADSE is advancing the development of its large-scale battery project toward the RTB milestone, which it currently expects to achieve in Q4 2026. In connection with financing the project’s further development, ADSE has begun seeking an equity investor to acquire an interest of up to 51% in the project and is in discussions with multiple potential investors.

 

However, recurring losses, negative operating cash flows and uncertainty regarding forecast execution and the availability of additional financing continue to raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Lease liabilities, total   2,620    3,188 

 

During the first half of 2026, shareholder loan facilities were increased, interest rates were amended, additional drawings were made and maturities were extended. ADSE received EUR 10.2 million of proceeds from shareholder loans, and current loans and borrowings increased to EUR 15.9 million as of June 30, 2026, from EUR 5.0 million as of December 31, 2025. Certain shareholder loan maturities were extended to July 31, 2027, while another shareholder loan was extended to July 31, 2026.

 

Certain warrants related to shareholder loans were repriced from USD 6.20 to USD 1.00 and exercised, generating proceeds and new Ordinary Shares. A total of 5,172,045 such warrants were exercised, generating proceeds of USD 5.2 million and resulting in the issuance of 5,172,045 Ordinary Shares. In addition, 40,859 public warrants were exercised, generating proceeds of USD 0.5 million. Total proceeds from warrant exercises were EUR 4.8 million.

 

Subscription rights were exercised for 9.3 million Ordinary Shares, generating gross proceeds of EUR 7.9 million. As of June 30, 2026, subscription rights to purchase a further 2.0 million Ordinary Shares remained outstanding and exercisable until December 31, 2029.

 

ADSE also made a partial payment of EUR 4.2 million in connection with the repurchase and cancellation of warrants related to the 2025 convertible-note financing. The payment resulted in the cancellation of 742,924 warrants. As of June 30, 2026, 1,084,360 warrants remained outstanding and the remaining payment obligation was USD 7.6 million, or EUR 6.5 million, which was recognized in trade and other payables. Following the warrant exercises, cancellations and remeasurements, total warrant liabilities decreased to EUR 11.4 million as of June 30, 2026, from EUR 54.8 million as of December 31, 2025.

Cash flow from operating activities   -18,657    -30,196    11,539 
Cash flow from investing activities   -1,781    -1,014    -767

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period   4,589    37,869    -33,280 

 

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities improved by EUR 11.5 million to a net cash outflow of EUR 18.7 million. The improvement primarily reflected a smaller negative cash-flow effect from changes in trade payables, which decreased to EUR 5.7 million from EUR 18.7 million, and a larger positive cash-flow effect from changes in contract liabilities, which increased to EUR 4.1 million from EUR 0.8 million. These effects were partially offset by smaller cash-flow benefits from reductions in trade receivables and inventories.

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities increased by EUR 0.8 million to EUR 1.8 million. Cash outflows included EUR 0.9 million for property, plant and equipment and EUR 0.9 million for investments in other entities.

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was EUR 18.0 million, compared with EUR 46.4 million in the prior-year period. Inflows included EUR 10.2 million from shareholder loans, EUR 7.9 million from share issuances and EUR 4.8 million from warrant exercises. Outflows comprised EUR 4.2 million for warrant repurchases, EUR 0.7 million of lease repayments and EUR 0.1 million of interest paid.

 

The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities primarily reflected the absence of EUR 40.9 million of proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes and warrants received in the prior-year period and a decrease in proceeds from warrant exercises to EUR 4.8 million from EUR 22.2 million. These effects were partially offset by EUR 10.2 million of proceeds from shareholder loans in the first half of 2026 and the absence of the EUR 14.4 million of shareholder-loan repayments made in the prior-year period.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303 of Regulation S-K as of June 30, 2026.

 

Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc.

 

ADSE’s accounting for research and development costs follows IAS 38. Research costs are expensed as incurred, while qualifying development costs are capitalized after the relevant recognition criteria are met and amortized when the asset is ready for use. ADSE recognized research and development expenses of EUR 4.2 million in the first half of 2026, compared with EUR 4.5 million in the prior-year period.

 

Trend Information

 

The first half of 2026 was characterized by lower Charging revenue, a stable Service contribution, initial Own & Operate revenue, continued negative operating cash flow and significant capital-structure transactions. ADSE plans to intensify sales in Europe and the United States, reduce working capital, continue cost-optimization and product-development programs, and expand its full-service model. The Company is also advancing large-scale battery projects and evaluating potential equity and debt financing alternatives.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

ADSE prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. Critical estimates and judgments relevant to the interim period include the going-concern assessment, valuation of warrant liabilities, recoverability and valuation of inventories, revenue recognition, provisions, and classification and measurement of financing and equity transactions. The interim financial statements should be read together with the material accounting policies and accounting estimates disclosed in the 2025 annual financial statements.
