CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The discussions in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions with respect to the future and management's current expectations, involve certain risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our future results of operations and financial position, our operational performance, our anticipated growth and business strategy, our anticipated development, commercialization, and market adoption of Microvast's KAF™ ("Kids Are Future") integrated electric powertrain solution, our future capital expenditures and debt service obligations, the projected costs, prospects and plans and objectives of management for future operations, including regarding expected growth and demand for our products and introduction of new products, the adoption of such offerings by customers, our expectations relating to backlog, pipeline and contracted backlog, current expectations relating to legal proceedings, and impacts and benefits from the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 as well as any other proposed or recently enacted legislation. In some cases, you may also identify forward-looking statements by words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “plan,” “project,” “predict,” “outlook” “should,” “will,” “would,” or the negative of these terms, or other comparable terminology intended to identify statements about the future. Such forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond our control. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
In addition to factors identified elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, the following factors, among others, could cause actual results and the timing of events to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements:
•our ability to remain a going concern;
•risk that we may not be able to accurately project and manage our growth and effectively execute our growth strategies or achieve profitability;
•risk that we may be unable to meet our future capital requirements and we may require additional capital to support our business growth, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, or at all;
•potential difficulties in maintaining manufacturing capacity and establishing expected mass manufacturing capacity in the future;
•risks relating to issues or delays, disruptions and quality control problems in our manufacturing operations;
•risks relating to being unable to control our manufacturing costs;
•risks that we may be unable to meet our projected construction timelines, costs and production ramps, or we may experience difficulties in generating and maintaining demand for products manufactured there and related services;
•restrictions in our existing and any future credit facilities;
•risks of operations in China;
•the effects of mechanics liens filed by contractors that we do not have sufficient funds to pay;
•the effects of existing and future litigation;
•changes in general economic conditions, including increases in interest rates and associated Federal Reserve policies, a potential economic recession, and the impact of inflation on our business;
•changes in the highly competitive market in which we compete, including with respect to our competitive landscape, technology evolution or regulatory changes;
•changes in availability and price of raw materials;
•risks that our suppliers may fail to deliver components according to schedules, prices, quality and volumes that are acceptable to us, or we may be unable to manage these components effectively;
•labor relations, including the ability to attract, hire and retain key employees and contract personnel;
•heightened awareness of environmental issues and concern about global warming and climate change;
•risk that we are unable to secure or protect our intellectual property;
•risk that our customers or third-party suppliers are unable to meet their obligations fully or in a timely manner;
ii
Table of Contents
•risks related to possible future reductions in pricing or order volume or loss of one or more of our significant customers;
•risks relating to our status as a relatively low-volume purchaser as well as from supplier concentration and limited supplier capacity;
•risk that our customers will adjust, cancel or suspend their orders for our products;
•risks relating to our ability to attract new customers and retain existing customers;
•risks related to our lengthy sales cycle for our products;
•risk of product liability or regulatory lawsuits or proceedings relating to our products or services;
•our ability to maintain and enhance our reputation and brand recognition;
•risks relating to facing strong competition for our products and services from a growing list of established and new competitors;
•the effectiveness of our information technology and operational technology systems and practices to detect and defend against evolving cyberattacks;
•changing laws regarding cybersecurity and data privacy, and any cybersecurity threat or event;
•the effects and associated cost of compliance with existing and future laws and governmental regulations, such as the IRA;
•risks relating to whether renewable energy technologies are suitable for widespread adoption or if sufficient demand for our offerings does not develop or takes longer to develop than we anticipate;
•economic, financial and other impacts such as a pandemic, including global supply chain disruptions;
•the impacts of geopolitical events, such as the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, including hostilities with Iran, the war between Russia and Ukraine, and other current or future conflicts;
•we face risks associated with maintaining and expanding our international operations, including unfavorable and uncertain regulatory, political, economic, tax, and labor conditions; and
•the risk that tariffs imposed on products of the PRC into the United States may lead to increased costs and impact our business.
The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive and new factors may emerge from time to time that could also affect actual performance and results. For more information, please see the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 in Part I, Item 1A.
Actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially, and potentially adversely, from any forward-looking statements and the assumptions on which those forward-looking statements are based. There can be no assurance that the data contained herein is reflective of future performance to any degree. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a predictor of future performance as forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to various significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
All information set forth herein speaks only as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of developments occurring after the date hereof except as may be required under applicable securities laws. Forecasts and estimates regarding our industry and end markets are based on sources we believe to be reliable, however, there can be no assurance these forecasts and estimates will prove accurate in whole or in part.
All references to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to Microvast Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries other than certain historical information which refers to the business of Microvast prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization
Microvast, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas in the United States of America on October 12, 2006 and re-domiciled to the State of Delaware on December 31, 2015. On July 23, 2021 , Microvast, Inc. and Tuscan Holdings Corp. (“Tuscan”) consummated the merger (the “Merger” or the “Business Combination”, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated February 1, 2021, between Tuscan, Microvast, Inc. and TSCN Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”).
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Merger Sub merged with and into Microvast, Inc., with Microvast, Inc. surviving the Merger. As a result of the Merger, Tuscan was renamed “Microvast Holdings, Inc.” (the “Company”). The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization as Microvast, Inc. was determined to be the accounting acquirer.
The Company and its subsidiaries are primarily engaged in developing, manufacturing, and selling lithium-ion battery technologies for use in commercial electric vehicles and battery energy storage systems across the globe.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements, have been included.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any future interim period or the year ending December 31, 2026.
Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior period information to the current presentation. The reclassifications did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the first quarter of 2026, the Company changed the presentation of foreign currency transaction gains and losses previously presented as general and administrative expenses to be presented as foreign exchange (loss) gain, which did not change net income or otherwise materially change the consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue to realize its assets and settle its liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had stockholders' equity of $466.1 million, including an accumulated deficit of $1,074.0 million, cash and cash equivalents of $126.1 million, restricted cash of $47.9 million and other current assets of $251.8 million. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $138.8 million, with $111.2 million due within the next 12 months, a bond payable of $41.7 million that matures in January 2027, a convertible loan with repayment amount of $26.7 million that matures in May 2026, and other current liabilities of $214.8 million. Additionally, as of March 31, 2026, the Company had $29.1 million in purchase commitments primarily related to inventory, and $17.3 million in capital commitments with $15.0 million due within the next 12 months.
Based on the Company's current business plan, the existing cash and assets held for sale may not be sufficient to fund operations through the next twelve months. These conditions and events raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
The Company's primary plans to alleviate the substantial doubt include 1) obtaining sufficient funding through operations; it is anticipated that the Company will generate cash through operations in the forecasted period in consideration of the existing contract backlog and anticipated market conditions; and 2) refinancing short-term borrowings; historically, the Company, on an as needed basis, has rolled over or obtained replacement borrowings from existing creditors for its short-term bank loans upon the maturity date of the loans. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company refinanced $30.1 million of short-term borrowings and anticipates that it will continue to be able to do so for the next twelve months. The Company has concluded it is probable that the execution of these plans will alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary in the event the Company can no longer continue as a going concern.
Recent Accounting Standards
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures” (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The amended guidance requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified natural expense categories in the disclosures within the notes to the financial statements. In addition, the guidance requires disclosure of selling expenses and its definition. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The guidance can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this guidance on its disclosures, but plan to adopt this guidance prospectively and conform with the disclosure requirements when it becomes mandatorily effective for the Company's annual report for the year ending December 31, 2027.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which provides updated guidance on how to recognize, measure, and present government grants. The ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028, including interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this guidance on its disclosures.

Huzhou Saiyuan Loan
On December 29, 2018, MPS signed an agreement with Huzhou Saiyuan, an entity established by the local government, to issue convertible bonds to Huzhou Saiyuan for a total consideration of $87.8 million (RMB600 million). The Company pledged its 12.39 % equity holding over MPS to Huzhou Saiyuan to facilitate the issuance of these convertible bonds.
If the subscribed bonds are not repaid by the maturity date, Huzhou Saiyuan has the right to dispose of the equity interests pledged by the Company in proportion to the amount of matured bonds, or convert the bonds into equity interests of MPS within 60 days after the maturity date. If Huzhou Saiyuan decides to convert the bonds into equity interests of MPS, the equity interests pledged would be released and the convertible bonds would be converted into equity interest of MPS based on an entity value of MPS of $950.0 million.
In September 2020 and 2022, MPS entered into two supplemental agreements with Huzhou Saiyuan, respectively, to change the repayment schedule as follows: (i) $14.6 million (RMB100 million) was repaid, together with interest accrued, on or before November 10, 2022, (ii) $14.6 million (RMB100 million) was repaid, together with interest accrued, on or before December 31, 2022 and (iii) the remaining $43.9 million (RMB300 million) will be repaid, together with interest accrued, on or before January 31, 2027. The applicable interest rate will be increased to 12 % if the Company is in default on the repayment of the bonds at the due date. The remaining terms and conditions of the convertible bonds were unchanged. The Company has fully complied with the amended repayment schedule. With $692 thousand (RMB5 million) repaid in 2023 and $1.4 million (RMB10 million) repaid in 2025, the subscription and outstanding balance of the convertible bonds was $41.7 million (RMB285 million) as of March 31, 2026.
NOTE 9. WARRANTS
The Company has 27.6 million publicly-traded warrants (“Public Warrants”) and 837 thousand private placement warrants issued to Tuscan Holdings Acquisition LLC and EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. (“Private Warrants” and together with the

Public Warrants, the “Warrants”) that entitle the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, none of the Warrants were exercised.
The Public Warrants are only exercisable for cash, however, if the Company were to not maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement covering the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants, the Public Warrants would be exercisable on a net-share settlement basis. The Public Warrants will expire on July 23, 2026.
The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants, except that the Private Warrants are exercisable for cash or on a net-share settlement basis, at the holder’s option, and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants. The Private Warrants will expire on July 23, 2026.
The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the Warrants will not be adjusted for the issuance of common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Warrants.
The Private Warrant liability was remeasured at fair value as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, resulting in gain of $15 thousand and $226 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 respectively and is classified within changes in fair value of warrant liability in the consolidated statements of operations.
The Private Warrants were valued using a Monte Carlo simulation with the following assumptions:
| March 31, 2026 | ||||||||
| Market price of public stock | $ | |||||||
| Exercise price | $ | |||||||
| Expected term (years) | ||||||||
| Volatility | % | |||||||
| Risk-free interest rate | % | |||||||
| Dividend rate | % | |||||||
On May 28, 2024, the Company also issued a warrant exercisable for 5.5 million shares of common stock at an initial exercise price of $2.00 per share. The Warrant expires on May 28, 2029. See further discussion in Note 14 – Convertible Loan measured at fair value.
NOTE 10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
Measured or Disclosed at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company measured its financial assets and liabilities, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, warrant liability and Convertible Loan at fair value on a recurring basis. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued based on the quoted market price in an active market. The fair value of the warrant liability and Convertible Loan are based on significant unobservable inputs, which represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. In determining the fair value of the warrant liability, the Company used a Monte Carlo simulation as described in Note 9 – Warrants. See Note 14 – Convertible Loan measured at fair value for assumptions utilized in measuring the fair value of the Convertible Loan.

NOTE 14. CONVERTIBLE LOAN MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE
On May 28, 2024, Microvast Holdings, Inc. entered into a $25.0 million convertible loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Mr. Yang Wu, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, which was subsequently amended on March 17, 2025 to extend the maturity date to May 28, 2026.
The loan includes an Initial Term Loan of $12.0 million and a Delayed Draw Term Loan of $13.0 million at an initial interest rate equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), plus an initial Applicable Margin of 9.75 % per annum, 3.75 % of which shall be paid in kind rather than in cash (collectively, the “Convertible Loan”). The maturity date may be accelerated upon the occurrence and continuance of an event of default in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement also provides Mr. Wu with the right to convert the outstanding principal balance of the Convertible Loan, into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate equal to two shares of common stock per $1.00 of principal amount to be converted.
The Initial Term Loan of $12.0 million was received in May 2024 and the Delayed Draw Term Loan of $13.0 million was received in July 2024.
The Convertible Loan is secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Microvast Holdings, Inc. and all other entities within the Company as guarantors.
The Company elected the fair value option to account for the Convertible Loan. The fair value was determined by using a discounted cash flow model for the bond component and a Black-Scholes-Merton model for the conversion option, which is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement. Subsequent changes in fair value are presented as gains or losses in the consolidated statements of operations. Interest expense related to the Convertible Loan is included in the changes in fair value. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, gains of $63.8 million and $42.9 million were recognized, respectively.

The significant input of the discounted cash flow model for the bond component is the discount rate. Below are the key inputs used in the Black-Scholes-Merton model for the conversion option:
March 31, 2026 | ||||||||
| Market price of public stock | $ | |||||||
| Exercise price | $ | |||||||
| Expected term (years) | ||||||||
| Volatility | % | |||||||
| Risk-free interest rate | % | |||||||
| Dividend rate | % | |||||||
The market price of public stock is the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock as of the valuation date. The exercise price is extracted from the warrant agreement. The expected term is assumed to be until the end of expiration based on the loan agreement. The expected volatility is estimated using a blend of the average volatility of peer companies and the Company's historical volatility. The risk-free interest rate was estimated based on the market yield of U.S. Government Bond with maturity close to the expected term of the warrants. The dividend yield was estimated by the Company based on its expected dividend policy over the expected term of the loan.
In connection with the Convertible Loan on May 28, 2024, the Company issued to Mr. Wu a warrant exercisable for 5.5 million shares of common stock at an initial exercise price of $2.00 per share that expires on May 28, 2029. As of March 31, 2026, 5.5 million warrants were outstanding.

Litigation
Corporate Governance Actions
Stephen Vogel, Ruth Epstein, Stefan Selig, Richard Rieger, Amy Butte, Yang Wu and Yanzhuan Zheng have been named as defendants in litigation filed in the Court of Chancery captioned Matt Jacob v. Stephen A. Vogel, et al., C.A. No. 2022-0600-PAF (Del. Ch.) (filed July 7, 2022). The plaintiff is seeking to certify the litigation as a stockholder class action. The complaint alleges that Stephen Vogel, Ruth Epstein, Stefan Selig, Richard Rieger and Amy Butte breached their fiduciary duties in connection with Tuscan's acquisition of Microvast, Inc., including by making inadequate disclosures concerning the projected earnings of Microvast, Inc. The complaint further alleges that once the earnings of the combined company became public, the Company's stock dropped, causing losses to investors. The complaint also alleges that Yang Wu and Yanzhuan Zheng aided and abetted these purported breaches. Amy Butte, Yang Wu, and Yanzhuan Zheng filed motions to dismiss the complaint. On March 7, 2026, the Court dismissed the claims against Messrs. Wu and Zheng, without prejudice but denied Ms. Butte's motion to dismiss. On March 30, 2026, the plaintiff served initial discovery requests on the remaining defendants. Amy Butte filed an answer to the complaint on April 15, 2026.
On December 13, 2023, in response to a stockholder litigation demand, the Company filed a petition in the Court of Chancery pursuant to Section 205 of the Delaware General Corporation Law seeking validation of an amendment to the Company’s Amended Certificate of Incorporation, the Business Combination and the issuance of the shares issued pursuant thereto, and the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation adopted in connection with the Business Combination (collectively, the “Acts”) to resolve any uncertainty with respect to those matters, which action was captioned In re Microvast Holdings Inc., C.A. No. 2023-1245-PAF. On March 18, 2024, the Court of Chancery granted the petition, validating and declaring effective each Act as of the time and date such Act was originally taken.
The Company, the directors of the Company predecessor, Tuscan, and certain former and current Company officers and directors have also been named as defendants in litigation filed in the Court of Chancery captioned Denish Bhavsar v. Stephen Vogel, et al., Case No. 2024-0137-PAF (Del. Ch.) (filed Feb. 14, 2024). The plaintiff purports to assert derivative claims on behalf of the Company. The complaint alleges that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with Tuscan’s acquisition of Microvast, Inc., including by making inadequate disclosures concerning Microvast, Inc.’s earnings and alleged conflicts of interest that existed between certain directors and Company stockholders. Certain defendants filed motions to dismiss, which are fully briefed.
The Company, and certain former and current Company officers and directors have also been named as defendants in a litigation filed in the Court of Chancery captioned Henry Park v. Yang Wu, et al., C.A. No. 2024-0868-PAF (Del. Ch.) (filed August 19, 2024). The plaintiff purports to assert derivative claims on behalf of the Company. The complaint alleges that certain individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties in connection with Tuscan’s acquisition of Microvast, Inc., including by making inadequate disclosures concerning Microvast, Inc.’s earnings and by refusing to investigate a litigation demand. On October 14, 2024, the Company and other defendants filed a motion to dismiss. That motion has been fully briefed.

Following an April 7, 2026 telephonic status conference on the Bhavsar and Park cases, the parties agreed to stay the cases pending disposition of the Jacob litigation. Stipulations were filed and so-ordered by the court in Bhavsar on April 24, 2026 and in Park on April 27, 2026.
The Company has received additional demands from purported Company stockholders, requesting that the Company’s Board of Directors investigate whether current and former directors and officers of the Company and its predecessors, Tuscan and Microvast Inc., breached their fiduciary duties by allegedly making material misrepresentations about inter alia (1) Microvast Inc.’s performance and financial health in connection with the merger between Tuscan and Microvast, Inc., and (2) the Company’s loss of a conditional grant from the United States Department of Energy. The Company has responded to the demands. The Company has also received and responded to stockholder demands for books and records made pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law that purportedly seek to investigate the (i) loss of the DOE grant, and (ii) Company's bases for denying one of the referenced stockholder demands.
Securities Litigation
The Company and certain of its officers have also been named as defendants in a putative class action complaint by a stockholder of the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas under the caption Schelling v. Microvast Holdings, Inc., Case No. 4:23-cv-04565 (S.D. Tex.) (filed Dec. 5, 2023) (the “Schelling Action”). The complaint alleges that defendants violated certain federal securities laws by making misleading statements regarding the receipt of a conditional grant from the United States Department of Energy, the Company’s profitability, the nature of Company-associated operations in China, and the status and progress of the construction of a facility owned by the Company. On March 1, 2024, the court appointed Co-Lead Plaintiffs and Co-Lead Counsel for the proposed class of Company investors. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on May 13, 2024, and Defendants filed a motion to dismiss on June 20, 2024. On August 22, 2025, the Court granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss. Defendants filed their Answer on October 14, 2025. The lawsuit is currently in the discovery phase. Briefing on the class certification is scheduled to take place from June to October 2026, and briefing on dispositive motions from April to July 2027. The case has not yet been set for trial. Jury selection for the trial of the case is set to begin on November 8, 2027.
The Company and certain of its officers and directors have also been named as defendants in three derivative actions filed in the Southern District of Texas under the captions Bhavsar v. Wu et al., No. 4:24-cv-00372 (S.D. Tex.) (filed Jan. 31, 2024), Marti et al v. Wu et al, Case No. 4:24-cv-00633 (S.D. Tex.) (filed Feb. 23, 2024), Gidaro v. Wu et al, Case No. 4:24-cv-00828 (S.D. Tex.) (filed Mar. 6, 2024). The complaints allege that the officer and director defendants violated the federal securities laws by making inadequate disclosures substantially similar to those alleged in the Schelling Action. The complaints further allege that these inadequate disclosures resulted from, and constituted, breaches of the officer and director defendants’ fiduciary duties. On February 24, 2024, the court entered in an order in the first-filed case, Bhavsar v. Wu et al., No. 4:24-cv-00372, consolidating the Bhavsar case and Marti et al v. Wu et al, Case No. 4:24-cv-00633. The consolidated derivative litigation (the “Consolidated Derivative Action”) is captioned In re Microvast Holdings, Inc. Derivative Litigation, Lead Case No. 4:24-cv-00372 (S.D. Tex.). The parties in the Gidardo action filed a stipulation to consolidate the Gidaro case into the Consolidated Derivative Action. The Consolidated Derivative Action is currently stayed. The allegations in the Consolidated Derivative Action are substantially similar to the allegations raised in the Securities Class Action. On March 18, 2024, the parties in the Derivative Action filed a joint motion to stay the proceedings pending a ruling in the Securities Class Action on the anticipated motion to dismiss. The Court granted the motion to stay on March 24, 2024. As of March 9, 2026, the stay remained in effect.
A fourth derivative complaint was filed on November 19, 2025 in the United States District Court (S.D. Tex) under the caption Richard Swenson and Lori Swenson v. Yang Wu, et al., No. 4:25-cv-05561. Following entry of a stipulation to consolidate the Swenson action with already-pending cases, the Swenson case was voluntarily dismissed on January 27, 2026.

Pursuant to the Company's governing documents and indemnification agreements entered into by the Company with certain of the named defendants, in the above-described actions, the Company has indemnified those defendants for all expenses and losses related to the litigation subject to the terms of those indemnification agreements. While the lawsuits are being vigorously defended, other reported lawsuits of this type have resulted in a broad range of outcomes, with each case being dependent on its own unique set of facts and circumstances. Litigation of this kind can lead to settlement negotiations, including negotiations prompted by pre-trial civil court procedures. The outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain, and there is always the possibility that a court rules in a manner that is adverse to the interests of the Company and the individual defendants. However, the amount of any such loss in that scenario, which could be material, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
References in this Report to the “Company,” “Microvast Holdings, Inc.,” “Microvast,” “our,” “us” or “we” refer to Microvast Holdings, Inc. The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the interim consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
The Business
Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Stafford, Texas, Microvast Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: MVST) is a global leader in advanced specialized battery technologies. Since our public listing in 2021, we have focused on delivering high-performance lithium-ion battery solutions for the next generation of commercial and industrial electrification. We specialize in the design, development, and manufacturing of battery components and systems primarily for electric commercial vehicles and energy storage systems (“ESS”). We have recently shifted our commercial priorities and resources towards certain new and upcoming commercial vehicle opportunities while remaining poised to increase activity in ESS in the future. Our guiding principle is to innovate lithium-ion battery designs from the ground up without relying on legacy technologies. We believe that this approach allows us to create purpose-built solutions for new markets, rather than repurposing existing ones.
Our mission is to become a leader in U.S. domestic battery production, reducing reliance on overseas suppliers, and strengthening national energy independence. We believe that this mission, along with our engineering expertise, vertically integrated business model, and our focus on continuous investment in our research and development and operations, differentiates us from competitors and positions us for long-term revenue and income growth.
We employ a vertically integrated approach, which we believe provides a competitive advantage in optimizing performance and cost. Our proprietary technology stack spans the entire battery system, including the core cell materials (cathode, anode, electrolyte, and separator), cells, modules, packs, thermal management systems, and intelligent battery management systems. This end-to-end expertise has driven critical advancements in ultra-fast charging, high energy density, long cycle life, and safety, all critical factors for commercial transportation and ESS applications. With significant in-house capabilities in design, testing, and R&D, we continue to strive to build an industry-leading body of knowledge in battery chemistry and performance.
Our Strategy
Our objective is to drive long-term stakeholder value by scaling our proprietary battery technologies across high-growth sectors. Since 2008, our research and development efforts have been dedicated to pioneering cutting-edge battery technologies that offer ultra-fast charging, extended cycle life, high energy density, and enhanced safety. Our commitment to innovation has well positioned us in developing the next-generation of lithium-ion batteries. We are focused on designing battery technologies for use primarily on electric commercial vehicles and remain committed to advancing ESS in the future. We believe our solutions empower industries to transition to cleaner, more efficient power sources, unlocking new levels of performance, longevity, and cost efficiency. Historically, demand for electric commercial vehicle batteries was concentrated in the Asia & Pacific regions. We are now working towards a balanced global strategy throughout Europe and North America. As customer demand for our products and services has grown in Europe and the U.S., we have expanded to meet these growth opportunities. We continue to invest in our operations in Asia-Pacific to capitalize on regional growth. This provides a balanced global strategy while maintaining strong partnerships with original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) in high-demand markets. We have primarily supplied our battery solutions to OEMs for use in electric commercial and specialty vehicles. We are continuously advancing our battery technologies to improve performance, efficiency, and reliability in commercial applications.
We believe the energy storage industry is positioned for continued expansion. In 2025, third-party industry data shows that global power capacity grew by approximately 90 gigawatts, an estimated 23% increase from the previous year. Industry projections indicate expected further expansion, with an average CAGR in deployed gigawatts of 23% between 2025 and 2035. The U.S. and China are expected to lead this growth, with U.S. power capacity projected to increase from approximately 45 gigawatts in 2025 to approximately 125 gigawatts by 2030. By remaining positioned to refine our technology, we aim to advance our ESS solutions to meet the evolving demand of power sector and complement existing resources in meeting growing global demand for reliable and flexible power. We plan to leverage many of the component-level technologies from our commercial vehicle segment to develop our energy storage products.

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance
Our future success depends on several critical factors, including those outlined below. While these represent opportunities for growth, they also pose challenges and risks that we must effectively manage to sustain our business momentum and improve financial performance.
Technology and Product Innovation
Our financial performance is driven by development and sales of new products with innovative technology. Our ability to develop innovative technology has been and will continue to be dependent on our dedicated research team. We plan to continue expanding our R&D presence in the U.S. We also plan to continue leveraging our knowledge base in our overseas locations, including China and to continue expanding our R&D efforts on a global basis. We expect our results of operations will continue to be impacted by our ability to develop new products with improved performance and reduced ownership cost as well as the cost of our R&D efforts.
We have launched the 290Ah lithium iron phosphate (“LFP”) cell-based battery packs as high-performance, modular battery solutions designed for a wide range of commercial and heavy-duty industrial applications. These packs leverage our next generation LFP cell technology to provide scalable configurations and enhanced safety profiles for the diverse operating environments required by fleets.
Utilizing this underlying 290Ah LFP technology, we have also launched the KAF™ electric powertrain solution. Designed as an integrated vehicle-level system targeted for the U.S. school bus market, the KAF™ electric powertrain combines high-voltage battery packs with a proprietary nitrogen purging safety system and key traction drive components. This architecture is intended to simplify OEM integration, reduce total deployment cost, and address thermal propagation concerns in the segment. Commercialization of the KAF™ platform and associated 290Ah LFP products remain subject to final product validation, vehicle-level integration with OEM partners, customer qualification, and availability of domestic manufacturing capacity and capital. For specific drive train components, we plan to partner with mature and high volume suppliers to source and develop this integrated solution.
Market Demand
Our revenue and profitability depend substantially on the demand for battery systems and battery components, which is driven by the growth of the commercial and specialty electric vehicle markets and the energy storage markets. Many factors contribute to the development of the electric vehicle and battery energy storage sector, including product innovation, general economic and political conditions, environmental concerns, energy demand, government support and economic incentives (e.g., the IRA in the U.S. and the E.U. Green Deal, E.U. Fit for 55). While governmental economic incentives and mandates can drive market demand for the markets in which we operate and, as a result, battery systems and components, governmental economic incentives can always be gradually reduced or eliminated. These incentives are subject to evolving geopolitical dynamics, including Foreign Entity of Concern restrictions and domestic content requirements. We continuously monitor these shifts, as any reduction, elimination, or disqualification from such incentives could adversely affect demand for our products and our financial performance.
Manufacturing Capacity
Our ability to scale depends on the timely expansion of our manufacturing footprint. As of March 31, 2026, our order backlog was primarily composed of long-term transit and logistics partners in Europe. To address this demand, we have utilized our capital resources to strategically expand our global production capabilities.
In 2023, we successfully completed the 2 GWh cell, module, and pack production line (Phase 3.1) for our 53.5Ah cell technology at our Huzhou, China facility. This Phase 3.1 line has been operating safely and efficiently, providing a stable manufacturing base. In addition to the 53.5Ah cell, this line also supports the production of our 48Ah and 55Ah cells.
To support our product portfolio, we are building a second 2 GWh production line (Phase 3.2) at our Huzhou, China facility. While this new Phase 3.2 line is primarily configured for the manufacturing of our next-generation 120Ah high-energy cells, it has been designed with flexible tooling and process architecture to accommodate multiple cell formats, including the 53.5Ah, 48Ah, and 55Ah variants. The clean rooms and utility equipment installation have been completed for Phase 3.2. Installation of the production equipment is completed, with commissioning and pilot production underway. This investment enhances our agile manufacturing capability and reinforces our commitment to delivering high-

performance solutions across diverse application scenarios. Additionally, we have pilot lines utilized for prototyping and testing and our Germany facility produces VDA modules.
Construction and equipment installation for our U.S. facility was suspended in the second quarter of 2024 due to funding constraints. We have since pivoted the site's strategic focus from nickel manganese cobalt production to LFP batteries. Towards the end of 2025, we made a targeted investment in our Clarksville facility to establish a pack assembly line, expanding our domestic capabilities and supporting anticipated customer demand. We financed this investment through cash generated from our operating activities. Resumption of full-scale construction is contingent upon securing additional financing or strategic partnerships. Once completed, Clarksville is intended to be a vertically integrated hub for LFP cell and ESS container assembly, satisfying domestic content preferences for the U.S. market.
Future capacity expansions will require significant capital expenditures and will require a corresponding expansion of our supporting infrastructure, further development of our sales and marketing team, an expansion of our customer base and strengthened quality control. This capacity expansion will be carried out in a measured manner based on our ongoing assessment of medium- and long-term demand for our solutions.
Sales Geographic Mix
After initially being focused on the Asia & Pacific regions, we have expanded and continue to expand our presence and product promotion to Europe and the U.S. to capitalize on the rapidly growing electric vehicle market in those regions. As we continue to expand our geographic focus to Europe and the U.S., we believe sales of our products in Europe and the U.S. will have the potential to generate higher gross margins because average sales prices for customers in the U.S. and Europe are typically significantly higher than the average sales prices in China. It has been our experience that buyers in Europe and the U.S. are more motivated by application-specific performance requirements, certification, system integration, warranty expectations, and total cost of ownership, whereas in China we are faced with intense price competition from local battery manufacturers. Therefore, the geographic sources of our revenue will have an impact on our revenue and gross margins.
Manufacturing Costs
Our profitability may also be affected by our ability to effectively manage our manufacturing costs. Our manufacturing costs are affected by fluctuations in the price of raw materials. If raw material prices increase, we will have to offset these higher costs either through price increases to our customers or through productivity improvements. Our ability to control our raw materials costs is also dependent on our ability to negotiate with our suppliers for a better price and our ability to source raw materials from reliable suppliers in a cost-efficient manner. In addition, we expect that an increase in our sales volume will enable us to lower our manufacturing costs through economies of scale.
Regulatory Landscape
The battery industry is subject to stringent and evolving environmental regulations, particularly concerning hazardous waste management, pollution control, and sustainability requirements. Over time, these regulations have become increasingly strict, impacting both product costs and gross margins. In the U.S., newly proposed RCRA universal waste regulations for lithium batteries are expected to be finalized by the EPA as early as August 2027, which would create a new waste category specifically for lithium batteries and establish new requirements for transportation, handling, and storage. Compliance with these standards requires continuous investment in manufacturing processes, material sourcing, and waste disposal practices to ensure adherence to environmental mandates across multiple jurisdictions.
Additionally, government policies and economic incentives play a critical role in shaping demand for the EV and ESS markets. Incentives such as EV purchase subsidies, tax credits for battery manufacturers, and renewable energy project grants have historically supported market growth. Similarly, carbon emission penalties and fleet-wide regulatory requirements for automakers further drive the adoption of zero-emission transportation and clean energy solutions. These policies expand our total addressable market, creating opportunities for increased sales and broader adoption of our battery technologies. However, changes in these incentives—such as reductions or eliminations of subsidies—could negatively affect demand for our products.
As a global company with operations and sales in China, the Asia-Pacific region, Europe, and the U.S., we are also exposed to trade policies, tariffs, and regulatory shifts that could impact our ability to meet projected sales and maintain profit margins. Any significant changes in international trade agreements, supply chain restrictions, or geopolitical tensions may influence production costs, material sourcing, and cross-border sales strategies. Changes in tariff policy in particular, whether threatened or implemented, may raise costs for consumers which could lead to softened

Table of Contents
consumer demand. In addition, because our manufacturing center is located in China, ongoing trade developments between the United States and China, such as import and export controls, may complicate our ability to rely on those manufacturing centers for continued production. Navigating these regulatory complexities is essential to sustaining our competitive position and long-term growth trajectory.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenues
We derive revenue from the sales of our electric battery products and components to the commercial vehicle market. While historically concentrated in the Asia-Pacific region, our revenue mix has shifted significantly toward Europe which accounted for the largest portion of our revenue mix for both 2026 and 2025. This shift reflects our strategy to capture higher-margin opportunities in the European commercial vehicle sectors.

Revenues
Our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $55.9 million, or 48.0%, compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by a 48.9% reduction in sales volume from approximately 535.7 MWh for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to approximately 273.9 MWh for the same period in 2026.
The decrease in sales volume was primarily the result of evolving regulatory and geopolitical dynamics, including the Indian and Korean markets, demand shift towards lower cost products in India, and OEM-caused platform delays in the transportation and mining sectors in Europe and APAC, respectively. The decrease in U.S. sales versus the prior year period were primarily due to our largest customer bringing product into 2025 as a result of uncertainty around tariff outcomes.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company observed a moderation in global electric vehicle demand growth, primarily driven by the expiration of government incentive programs and shifting regulatory frameworks in key regions. Our revenue and delivery schedules were also impacted by broader macroeconomic headwinds, including geopolitical instability and evolving tariff structures, which contributed to market volatility and have influenced customer procurement cycles.
Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit
Our cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $32.0 million, or 43.6%, compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to the decrease in sales volumes.
30
Table of Contents
Our gross profit margin was 31.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 36.9% in 2025. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to lower production utilization, which reduced fixed cost absorption.
Our gross margin profile remains subject to external pressures, including inflationary trends in raw material pricing and elevated logistics and freight expenses resulting from ongoing global supply chain disruptions and geopolitical conflicts. The implementation of new tariff frameworks has increased the cost of goods sold. While we continue to implement cost-mitigation strategies, these macroeconomic factors, combined with a phase-out of regional subsidies for electric vehicle adoption, have contributed to a challenging environment for near-term profitability across the battery manufacturing sector.
Operating Expenses
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $1.2 million, or 8.3%, compared to the same period in 2025. This reduction in G&A expenses was primarily due to $2.2 million decrease of allowance for credit loss due to improved credit management and a $1.0 million decrease of employee cost which was partially offset by a $1.5 million increase in professional service fees.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $0.6 million, or 6.8%, compared to the same period in 2025. The increase in R&D expenses was primarily due to the expansion of our domestic R&D presence in the U.S.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $1.5 million, or 21.4%, compared to the same period in 2025. This reduction in S&M expenses was primarily due to $1.3 million of decreased service fees.
Subsidy Income
Subsidy income decreased from $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to $3 thousand in the current-year period. The amounts are the one-time awards granted by the Chinese government in 2025 and 2026.
Foreign Exchange (Loss) Gain
Foreign exchange gain decreased from $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to a loss of $6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The foreign exchange loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily due to unfavorable changes in the U.S. dollar and Euro exchange rates relative to the changes in RMB exchange rates.
Changes in Fair Value of Warrant and Convertible Loan
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded a gain of $63.8 million. The gain was primarily driven by the decrease in the Company's stock price over the remeasurement period. For further discussion regarding the valuation methodology and inputs, see Note 14 – Convertible Loan measured at fair value.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily from capital contributions from equity holders, the issuance of convertible notes and bank borrowings. As of March 31, 2026, our principal sources of liquidity were our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash totaling $174.0 million, of which $126.1 million was comprised of cash and cash equivalents.
Of the cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026, $52.5 million is held by our Chinese subsidiaries and $18.8 million is held by our European subsidiaries. These funds are generally intended to support local operations. If we were to repatriate these funds to the U.S., we may be required to accrue and pay withholding taxes. We currently intend to

retain available funds and any future earnings to support ongoing operation and expansion efforts in China, Europe and the U.S.
Going Concern Evaluation
Management evaluated whether conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of the consolidated financial statements are issued. Based on our current business plan, we projected that the existing cash and assets held for sale would not be sufficient to fund our operations through the next twelve months. These conditions and events raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Management has implemented several primary plans intended to alleviate these conditions:
•Operating Cash Flow: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company had a loss from operations of $7.9 million and used $22.8 million in operating activities. We have an order backlog of $168.7 million with the majority of these orders expected to be fulfilled in 2026 and 2027. We do not expect significant fluctuations in gross margin, considering our selling prices are secured by the contract backlogs and current market conditions of major raw materials. Under the current operating plan, we believe that the net operating cash flow in the forecasted period will be positive.
•Refinancing of Short-Term Bank Borrowings: Based on our historical ability to access credit, we expect to maintain the ability to refinance these obligations as needed as they become due over the next twelve months. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company refinanced $30.1 million.
•Equity Funding: Under our Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”), the Company has received $27.7 million in net proceeds through the date of this issuance. We intend to continue utilizing the Sales Agreement to raise additional capital as needed for general corporate purposes and debt repayment.
•Prioritization of Capital Expenditures: While remaining poised to increase investment in ESS in the future, the Company has shifted its focus to allocate capital toward more immediate and profitable commercial vehicle applications. By deferring ESS development and focusing on near term cash-generative opportunities, we believe a more effective liquidity position can be maintained over the next twelve months.
Based on execution of these plans, management has concluded it is probable that these actions will alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and provide adequate liquidity to meet our requirements for the next twelve months. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to alleviate these concerns.
Additional Liquidity Initiatives
We secured $51.7 million in bank loans during the three months ended March 31, 2026 (see Note 6 - Bank Borrowings). The Company has been exploring a potential sale of its Lake Mary, Florida facility with a prospective buyer for a gross purchase price of $11.5 million. This divestiture is intended to provide additional liquidity without impacting core operations. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and a due diligence period for the buyer. The Company currently anticipates that the transaction will close during the second quarter of 2026.
Financings
As of March 31, 2026, our debt obligations consisted of:
•Bank borrowings of $138.8 million, the terms of which range from 0.2 to 24 months. The interest rates on our bank borrowings ranged from 2.40% to 4.85% per annum.
•Convertible bonds outstanding of $41.7 million, with interest rates ranging from 3% to 4%. The convertible bonds are all due in 2027.
•Convertible Loan measured at fair value of $76.5 million. This loan bears interest rate at Term SOFR plus an initial applicable margin of 9.75% per annum, 3.75% is paid in kind and added to the outstanding principal balance, and the remainder is paid in cash. The loan matures on May 28, 2026. We currently expect Mr. Wu to convert the Convertible Loan into outstanding shares of common stock as provided for in the Loan Agreement. If he does not elect to convert, we anticipate requesting a further extension of the maturity date. There can be no assurance Mr. Wu will agree to such extension. See Note 14 - Convertible loan measured at fair value for details.
32
Table of Contents
As of March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all material terms and covenants of our loan agreements, credit agreements and bonds.
Although no additional binding financing agreements have been entered into, the Company remains engaged in discussions with third parties to explore further capital-raising opportunities. Future capital requirements may change based on business developments, market conditions, and liquidity needs. The Company continues to evaluate potential options, including equity offerings and debt financing, to provide financial flexibility and long-term growth.
The exercise price for our outstanding warrants is $11.50 per share of common stock, and the trading price of our common stock was $1.87 as of May 4, 2026. There is no guarantee that the warrants will be exercised prior to their expiration, however, we do not expect this to impact our liquidity.
Capital Expenditures and Other Contractual Obligations
Our capital expenditures amounted to $4.2 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our capital expenditures for the periods were primarily related to our Huzhou facility expansion, which is funded primarily by localized borrowings and cash flow from our China operations.
In 2021, we started our capacity expansion plans in Huzhou, China, Berlin, Germany and Clarksville, Tennessee. The project in Germany was completed in 2021. The China Phase 3.1 capacity expansion was successfully completed in 2023. To support our expanding product portfolio and growing customer demand, we initiated our Huzhou Phase 3.2 capacity expansion in the fourth quarter of 2024 with total anticipated additional production capacity of 2 GWh annually.
Because of delays in securing additional financing, in the fourth quarter of 2023 we began experiencing slow progress in continuing construction of our Clarksville expansion, slowing down certain construction work streams due to the need for additional financing. The proceeds from the Business Combination alone were not sufficient to complete the Clarksville expansion and meet our general working capital needs. Due to foreign regulatory restrictions, adverse tax consequences and localized working capital needs, we are currently unable to repatriate cash from China to fund the U.S. operations or the Clarksville expansion. We are seeking alternative sources of capital to complete the Clarksville battery production and manufacturing plant to satisfy domestic content requirements for our U.S. customers. Towards the end of 2025, we made a targeted investment in our Clarksville facility to establish a pack assembly line, expanding our domestic capabilities and supporting anticipated customer demand. We financed this investment through cash generated from our operating activities.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to funding planned production capacity expansions, customer demand, and for general working capital. In addition, we may in the future enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses or technologies. We may need to seek additional equity or debt financing in order to meet these future capital requirements. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, or on terms that are acceptable to us, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. There are no material off-balance sheet arrangements other than those described below.
Lease Commitments
We lease certain facilities and equipment under non-cancellable lease agreements that expire at various dates through 2036. For additional information, see Note 11 – Leases, in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Purchase Commitments
We regularly enter into non-cancelable contractual obligations primarily related to purchases of inventory. As of March 31, 2026, such purchase commitments, which do not qualify for recognition on our consolidated balance sheets, amount to $29.1 million, most of which is short-term.
There have not been any other material changes during the three months ended March 31, 2026 to our contractual obligations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Cash Flows
The following table provides a summary of our cash flow data for the periods indicated (in thousands):
Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||||||||
2026 | 2025 | ||||||||||
| Net cash (used in) generated from operating activities | (22,796) | 7,169 | |||||||||
| Net cash used in investing activities | (2,804) | (2,332) | |||||||||
| Net cash generated from financing activities | 29,325 | 9,463 | |||||||||
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash used in our operating activities was $22.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $30.0 million compared to $7.2 million generated by operating activities in the same period in 2025. This decrease was primarily due to a $36.6 million reduction in net income after adjusting for non-cash items, which was partially offset by a net $6.6 million improvement in net operating assets and liabilities. The improvement in our net operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivables, partially offset by a decrease of accounts and notes payables, accrued expense and other liabilities and an increase in the inventories balance.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2.3 million in the same period of 2025. This cash outflow primarily consisted of capital expenditures related to the expansion of our Phase 3.2 manufacturing facility and to the purchase of property and equipment associated with our existing manufacturing and R&D facilities.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash generated by financing activities was $29.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $19.8 million compared to $9.5 million in the same period of 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $23.5 million increase in proceeds from bank borrowings and partially offset by a $7.7 million increase in repayments of bank borrowings.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results could differ from these estimates.
There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
Our cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of cash deposits and money market accounts, which are subject to interest rate fluctuations. While these interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk, historical fluctuations in interest income have not been material.
Our bonds payable bear fixed rates and are not publicly traded, limiting exposure to interest rate volatility. However, our project finance loans in China include an interest rate spread of 115 basis points over the Loan Prime Rate in China, making them sensitive to market interest rate changes. Future movements in benchmark interest rates could materially impact our interest expense.
34
Table of Contents
The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while optimizing returns, without significantly increasing risk. Due to the short maturity of our cash equivalents, our portfolio remains relatively insensitive to interest rate fluctuations. We do not anticipate that a 100-basis-point increase or decrease in interest rates would have a material effect on our operating results or financial condition. We will continue to review and adjust our investment policy as needed to ensure that aligns with our risk management strategy and financial objectives.
Foreign Currency Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency risk as a result of our significant sales and operational presence in China and our sales activities within the European region. Consequently, a substantial portion of our transactions and monetary assets are denominated in the Chinese Renminbi and the Euro. The volatility of exchange rates is influenced by macroeconomic factors and government policies, which may result in significant fluctuations in our operating results.
Our foreign exchange gains and losses primarily arise from the translation of cash balances, trade accounts receivable and payable, and intercompany balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar.
To assess our exposure, we considered the historical trends in foreign currency exchange rates and determined that it is reasonably possible that adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates of 10% for all currencies could be experienced in the near term. These changes were applied to our total monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than our local currencies at the balance sheet date to compute the impact these changes would have had on our net income. These changes would have resulted in a loss of $18.0 million at March 31, 2026.
At present, we do not utilize derivative financial instruments to hedge our exposure to foreign currency risk. While we may evaluate the use of hedging instruments in the future, there can be no assurance that such strategies will effectively mitigate our exposure or that the cost of such instruments will not outweigh their benefits.
Credit Risk
Our credit risk primarily relates to trade receivables, cash and restricted cash. We typically extend credit only to customers and counterparties with strong credit ratings and actively monitor overdue accounts to minimize default risk.
Our evaluation of credit risk exposure involves significant estimates and judgment. Holding other factors constant, a hypothetical 100-basis-point increase in the expected loss rate on our financing receivables portfolio would have resulted in an increase in the allowance for credit losses of approximately $0.6 million as of March 31, 2026.
To mitigate credit risk, we have a dedicated credit management team responsible for establishing credit limits, approving credit terms and implementing collection strategies. At each reporting period, we review the recoverability of outstanding balances and ensure that adequate impairment provisions are recorded for potentially uncollectible amounts. If necessary, we negotiate revised payment terms or settlement plans with customers facing financial difficulties.
Given our robust credit risk management practices, we consider our overall credit risk exposure to be significantly mitigated.
Seasonality
Historically, we have observed higher sales volumes in the third and fourth quarters, compared to the first and second quarters. However, due to our relatively limited operating history, it remains difficult to determine the exact extent or nature of seasonality in our business. We continue to monitor sales trends and market conditions to better understand the potential impact of seasonal demand fluctuations on our operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Under supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of "its disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the three months ended March 31, 2026. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
For a description of our pending legal proceedings, please see Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies, to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. While the lawsuits are being vigorously defended, the outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain, and there is always the possibility that a court rules in a manner that is adverse to the interests of the Company and the individual defendants. However, the amount of any such loss in that scenario cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Regardless of the outcome, litigation has the potential to have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In evaluating us and our common stock, we urge you to carefully consider the risks and other information in this Report, as well as the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and other reports that we have filed with the SEC. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. We may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
There were no unregistered sales of our equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act provides an affirmative defense that enables prearranged transactions in securities in a manner that avoids concerns about initiating transactions at a future date while possibly in possession of material nonpublic information. Our Insider Trading Policy permits our directors and executive officers to enter into trading plans designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1.
On December 12, 2025, Yang Wu, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, adopted a 10b5-1 trading plan intended to satisfy the affirmative defense of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act. The 10b5-1 trading plan provides for the sale of an aggregate of up to 10,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock between April 1, 2026 and March 31, 2027.
On June 11, 2025, Yixin Pan, director and Chair of the Compensation Committee and Nominating & Governance Committee, adopted a 10b5-1 trading plan intended to satisfy the affirmative defense of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act. The 10b5-1 trading plan provides for the sale of an aggregate of up to 12,596 shares of the Company's common stock between December 31, 2025 and January 6, 2026.
No other director or officer of the Company (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act) adopted or terminated any contract, instruction or written plan for the purchase or sale of our securities that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act or any “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” as defined in Item 408(c) of Regulation S-K during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
