Rhea-AI Filing Summary

SunPower Inc. (SPWR) entered into a related-party financing by issuing a $2,000,000 convertible promissory note to a trust controlled by its Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman, Thurman J. Rodgers. The note bears a 12% interest rate, is unsecured, and matures on July 1, 2029, with semiannual interest payments beginning January 1, 2026. It is convertible at the holder’s option into common stock at an initial rate of 626.9592 shares per $1,000 of principal, allowing up to 1,253,918 shares to be issued, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. The company also received a Nasdaq notice on November 19, 2025 that it is out of compliance with timely filing rules due to a delayed Q3 Form 10-Q, though the notice does not immediately affect trading and SunPower plans to file the report during the week of November 24, 2025.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Nasdaq noncompliance notice for late Q3 Form 10-Q filing places SunPower at risk of further listing action if it does not regain timely-reporting compliance within Nasdaq’s remedial framework.
  • High-cost related-party financing via a $2,000,000 unsecured convertible note at a 12% interest rate increases leverage and introduces potential dilution of up to 1,253,918 shares.

Insights

Costly insider convertible note adds cash but raises leverage and dilution risk.

SunPower issued a $2,000,000 unsecured convertible note to a trust controlled by its CEO at a relatively high fixed interest rate of 12%. The note matures on July 1, 2029 and requires semiannual interest payments starting January 1, 2026, adding ongoing cash outflows to the capital structure.

The initial conversion rate of 626.9592 shares per $1,000 of principal implies a maximum of 1,253,918 shares of common stock could be issued if fully converted, subject to anti-dilution adjustments. This introduces potential equity dilution alongside higher interest expense, although conversion would reduce debt at that time.

Redemption terms allow the company to redeem the note for cash after July 5, 2026 if the stock trades at specified premiums to the conversion price, and change-of-control provisions let the holder require cash redemption at par. These features give the holder downside protection and may constrain the company’s flexibility under certain market or corporate events.

Nasdaq noncompliance notice highlights disclosure timing risk but no immediate delisting.

On November 19, 2025, SunPower received a letter from Nasdaq stating it is not in compliance with Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) because its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 28, 2025 was not filed on time. The company previously indicated in a Form 12b-25 that it needed more time to compile and process information for that report.

The Nasdaq letter does not immediately affect the listing or trading of SunPower’s common stock or warrants. Under Nasdaq rules, the company has 60 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance with continued listing requirements.

SunPower anticipates filing the delayed Q3 Form 10-Q during the week of November 24, 2025, which is an important near-term step in addressing the deficiency noted by Nasdaq and maintaining compliance with exchange reporting standards.

Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On November 20, 2025, SunPower Inc. (the “Company”) issued a convertible promissory note in the original principal amount of $2,000,000 (the “Note”) to a trust controlled by Thurman J. Rodgers, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman.

 

The Note bears a 12% interest rate. The Note is a general unsecured obligation of the Company and will mature on July 1, 2029, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. Interest on the Note will be payable semiannually in arrears on January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2026. The Note is convertible at the option of the holder at any time prior to the payment of the payment of the principal amount of the Note in full. Upon conversion of the Note, the Company will satisfy its conversion obligation by delivering shares of common stock of the Company, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), and paying cash in respect of any fractional shares.

 

The conversion rate of the Note is initially equal to 626.9592 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount due under the Note. The conversion rate shall be subject to adjustment from time to time pursuant to the terms of the Note.

 

The Company may not redeem the Note prior to July 5, 2026. The Company may redeem for cash all (but not less than all) of Note, at its option, (i) on or after July 5, 2026 and prior to July 1, 2027, if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock has been at least 150% of the conversion price for the Note then in effect and (ii) on or after July 5, 2027 and prior to the maturity date for the Note if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for the Note then in effect, in each case of (i) and (ii), for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. No sinking fund is provided for the Note.

 

If the Company undergoes a change of control (as defined in the Note), then, subject to certain conditions and except as described in the Note, the holder may require the Company to redeem for cash all (but not less than all) of Note at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Note.

 

The Note sets forth certain events of default after which the Note may be declared immediately due and payable and sets forth certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default involving the Company after which the Note becomes automatically due and payable. The following events are considered “events of default” under the Note:

 

(i) any default in any payment of principal amount, change of control redemption amount or redemption price on the Note when due and payable or (ii) any default in the payment of interest when due and payable and such failure to pay is not cured within 30 calendar days from the occurrence thereof;

 

failure to deliver, when required by the Note, a change of control notice or notice of a change of control or an organic change;

 

default in the Company’s obligation to convert the Note upon exercise of the conversion right with respect to the Note if not cured within five business days after its occurrence;

 

the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any of their respective affiliates fails to pay principal when due (whether at stated maturity or otherwise) or an uncured default exists that results in the acceleration of maturity of any indebtedness of the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any of their respective affiliates in an aggregate amount in excess of $10,000,000 (or its foreign currency equivalent), unless such indebtedness is discharged, or such acceleration is rescinded, stayed or annulled, within any applicable cure period set forth in the relevant agreement or instrument;

 

one or more final non-appealable judgments for the payment of money in any aggregate amount in excess of $10,000,000 shall be rendered against the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any of their respective affiliates, or any combination thereof, and the same shall remain undischarged for a period of 60 days during which execution shall not be effectively stayed, or any action shall be legally taken by a judgment creditor to levy upon assets or properties of the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any of their respective affiliates to enforce any such judgment; and

 

certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company.

If certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default occur with respect to the Company, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, the Note shall automatically become due and payable. If an event of default with respect to the Note, other than certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default with respect to the Company, occurs and is continuing, a holder may at its option declare the Note to be immediately due and payable.

 

A copy of the Note is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference (and the foregoing description of the Note is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit).

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

 

On November 19, 2025, the Company received an expected letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 28, 2025 (the “Q3 Form 10-Q”), the Company was not in compliance with the timely filing requirements for continued listing under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1).

 

The Nasdaq letter has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock or warrants.

 

The Company’s Form 12b-25 notice (the “Form 12b-25”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 12, 2025 stated that the Q3 Form 10-Q was delayed because the Company required more time to compile and process certain information for inclusion in the Q3 Form 10-Q. The Company anticipates filing the Q3 Form 10-Q during the week of November 24, 2025.

 

The Nasdaq listing rules require Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic reports with the SEC. The Nasdaq letter stated that, under Nasdaq rules, the Company has 60 calendar days to submit a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Company issued the Note in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall such securities be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements and certificates evidencing such shares contain a legend stating the same.

 

The Note and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note, if any, have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.

 

To the extent that any shares of Common Stock are issued upon conversion of the Note, they will be issued in transactions anticipated to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 3(a)(9) thereof because no commission or other remuneration is expected to be paid in connection with conversion of the Note and any resulting issuance of shares of Common Stock. A maximum of 1,253,918 shares of Common Stock may be issued upon conversion of the $2,000,000 principal among of the Note based on the conversion rate of 626.9592 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Note, which is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustment provisions.
