Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (FFAI) entered into incremental warrant termination agreements with all investors from its March 2025 convertible note financing, cancelling 21,021,369 Incremental Warrants tied to prior closings. These warrants had been exercisable into convertible notes, common stock purchase warrants, and Series B preferred stock.

Based on the current $5.00 conversion floor price for notes issued in the March 2025 financing, the cancelled Incremental Warrants represented approximately 45% of potential maximum dilution. Together with an August 20, 2026 amendment that removed the obligation to issue additional common and incremental warrants in future closings, all common warrants and Incremental Warrants under the March 2025 SPA have now been cancelled.

On a fully diluted basis, the company states that these actions eliminate approximately 57.48% of the potential dilution associated with the March 2025 financing and are expected to directly reduce about $5.794 million of fair-value-measured liabilities previously reported, which the company characterizes as a meaningful improvement to its balance sheet and liability profile.

Incremental Warrant Termination Agreement financial
"announced that it has entered into Incremental Warrant Termination Agreements with each investor"
convertible promissory notes financial
"Incremental Warrants exercisable for (i) convertible promissory notes with an aggregate principal amount"
A convertible promissory note is a loan a company takes that can later be turned into shares instead of being paid back in cash; think of lending money now in exchange for a voucher that can become ownership later. Investors care because it mixes credit risk and potential ownership upside—it can protect lenders if a company struggles while also diluting existing shareholders when converted, affecting future share value and investor returns.
fair-value-measured liabilities financial
"expected to directly reduce the approximately $5.794 million in fair-value-measured liabilities disclosed"
fully diluted basis financial
"On a fully diluted basis, the cancellation eliminates approximately 57.48% of the potential dilution"
A fully diluted basis counts every share that could exist if all outstanding options, warrants, convertible securities and other rights were exercised or converted into common stock, showing the maximum number of shares outstanding. For investors this matters because it spreads ownership and earnings across that larger share count, like slicing a pie into every possible piece before deciding how big each investor’s slice will be, which affects per-share value and ownership percentage.
capital structure financial
"improving its capital structure"
Capital structure is the way a company finances its operations and growth by using different sources of money, such as borrowed funds (loans or bonds) and owner’s equity (investments from owners or shareholders). It’s like a recipe for baking a cake, where the balance of ingredients affects the final product's strength and taste; similarly, the mix of debt and equity influences a company's stability and risk. For investors, understanding a company's capital structure helps gauge how risky it might be to invest or lend money.
convertible note financing financial
"each investor from its March 2025 convertible note financing"
A convertible note financing is a loan investors give to a company that is intended to turn into shares later instead of being paid back in cash. Think of it like a bridge loan that comes with a coupon you can swap for ownership at the next funding round, usually at a discounted price or a preset valuation limit. It matters to investors because it lets them support a company early while delaying a precise valuation, but it also affects future ownership percentages and risk exposure when the loan converts into equity.

Exhibit 99.1

 

Faraday Future Announced that It has Entered Into Incremental Warrant Termination Agreements With Each March 2025 Financing Investor as It Continues to Make Progress in Reducing Its Debt and Improving Its Capital Structure

 

Under the Termination Agreement, the Company has cancelled all 21,021,369 outstanding Incremental Warrants issued in the 1st to 3rd closings pursuant to its March 2025 Financing, permanently removing the potential dilution associated with their future exercise.

 

Los Angeles, CA (Sept. 1, 2026) – Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) (“Faraday Future”, “FF” or the “Company”), a California-based global Embodied AI (EAI) ecosystem company, today announced that it has entered into Incremental Warrant Termination Agreements with each investor from its March 2025 convertible note financing (the “March 2025 Financing” and each such investor, a “March Investor”). With the support of all participating investors, the Company continues to make progress in reducing its debt and improving its capital structure.

 

Under the Termination Agreement, the Company has cancelled all 21,021,369 outstanding Incremental Warrants issued in the 1st to 3rd closings pursuant to the March 2025 Financing, permanently removing the potential dilution associated with their future exercise. Based on the current $5.00 conversion floor price for outstanding convertible notes issued pursuant to the March 2025 Financing, the exercise of these Incremental Warrants could have resulted in approximately 45% of potential maximum dilution. Along with the amendment agreement the Company entered into with each March Investor dated as of August 20, 2026, which eliminated the Company’s obligation to issue common warrants and incremental warrants at future March 2025 Financing closings, all common warrants and Incremental Warrants under March 2025 SPA have now been fully cancelled. On a fully diluted basis, the cancellation eliminates approximately 57.48% of the potential dilution associated with the March 2025 Financing, further reducing the Company’s dilution overhang and optimizing its capital structure.

 

Following the second quarter, the two optimization actions taken with respect to the liabilities arising from the March 2025 Financing are expected to directly reduce the approximately $5.794 million in fair-value-measured liabilities disclosed in the Company’s previously reported second-quarter financial results. This reduction represents a meaningful improvement to the Company’s balance sheet and liability profile.

 

“These Incremental Warrant Termination Agreements represent another concrete step in delivering on our commitment to capital value restoration and represents our latest action to reduce the Company’s potential dilution, reducing debt and optimizing our capital structure,” said Jerry Wang, Executive Chairman of FF.
