Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. reported higher first-quarter 2026 revenue but a larger loss as it continues to build out its specialty solar business.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenue rose to $51,944 from $15,624, driven mainly by increased product orders and milestone and engineering work. Operating expenses also grew, leading to a net loss of $2,177,162, compared with a loss of $1,674,296 a year earlier, and a basic and diluted loss per share of $0.27.
As of March 31, 2026, Ascent held $16.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, up sharply from December 31, 2025, largely due to a January 2026 private placement and warrant exercises that together brought in over $16 million of gross proceeds before costs. Working capital stood at $14.4 million, and total stockholders’ equity was $16.8 million.
Management states that current and projected revenues are not expected to generate positive cash flow for 2026 and that additional financing will be needed to reach profitability. Because of recurring losses, dependence on external financing, and uncertainty about securing new capital, the company concludes there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. is asking stockholders to vote at its June 17, 2026 annual meeting on six items, including board elections, auditor ratification, an equity plan increase, and an advisory vote on executive pay.
Stockholders are being asked to elect two Class A directors to serve until 2029, ratify Haynie & Company as auditor for 2026, and approve an amendment to the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan that would raise the share reserve from 893,611 to 1,700,000, including higher individual award limits. Investors will also cast a non-binding “say-on-pay” vote on compensation for executives, whose 2025 pay totaled $614,900 for the CEO, $319,700 for the CFO, and $349,600 for the COO, and consider an adjournment proposal.
Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. is soliciting proxies for its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on June [***], 2026 at the company’s Thornton, Colorado offices.

The Board recommends a vote FOR all proposals. The Equity Plan amendment would add 806,389 shares, raising the plan ceiling to 1,700,000 shares and increasing individual annual award limits from 200,000 to 400,000 shares. Audit fees for 2025 totaled $216,500.

Cash used in operations was $6,903,966, leaving cash and equivalents of $2,786,493 and working capital of $1,178,902 at year-end.
