Insights

Zoomcar adds private capital via a structured preferred-and-warrant unit financing.

Zoomcar Holdings, Inc. completed a second closing in its Series A Unit Offering, raising about $537,000 by selling 662 Units of convertible preferred stock bundled with warrants. The structure offers investors equity upside through both conversion at $0.05 and warrants at $0.0625.

The overall Offering allows up to $5,000,000 of Units plus a $5,000,000 overallotment option, giving flexibility for additional capital through June 30, 2026. Registration rights and potential liquidated damages add pressure on the company to file and make effective a resale registration statement after this second closing.

ThinkEquity receives a 10% cash fee, a 1% allowance, and placement agent warrants equal to 10% of underlying shares, including 67 shares tied to this closing. This embeds ongoing equity-linked compensation for the agent while aligning it with the success of future conversions and warrant exercises.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock financial
"each Unit consisting of (i) one share of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share"
Series A convertible preferred stock is a class of shares sold in an early funding round that gives investors a mix of protection and upside: it pays a priority claim over common shares if the company is sold or closes, but can be converted into ordinary shares to share in future growth. Think of it like a hybrid between a safer stake and a ticket to ownership; it matters to investors because it affects who controls the company, how future gains are split, and how much their investment is protected from downside.
Regulation D regulatory
"The Offering is being conducted pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933... and Rule 506(c) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder."
Regulation D is a set of rules that govern how companies can raise money from investors without going through the full process required for public stock offerings. It provides simplified options for private placements, making it easier for companies to seek investments from a smaller group of investors. For investors, it offers opportunities to invest in private companies, often with fewer restrictions, but also with different levels of risk and disclosure.
registration rights agreement financial
"the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Purchasers"
A registration rights agreement is a contract that gives investors the option to have their ownership stakes officially registered with the government, making it easier to sell their shares later. This agreement matters because it provides investors with a clearer path to cash out their investments if they choose, offering more liquidity and confidence in their ability to sell their holdings when desired.
overallotment option financial
"plus up to an additional $5,000,000 of Units issuable pursuant to an overallotment option exercisable by the placement agent"
An overallotment option (often called a "greenshoe") is a pre-arranged allowance for underwriters to sell or buy up to a specified extra percentage of a company’s shares during an offering to meet unexpected demand or support the share price. Think of it as a short-term buffer: it helps reduce wild swings right after shares start trading but can slightly increase the total shares outstanding if the option is exercised, which matters to investors because it affects supply, price stability, and potential dilution.
accredited investor regulatory
"including that each Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D"
An accredited investor is an individual or entity that meets certain financial criteria, such as having a high income or significant net worth, allowing them to invest in private or less regulated investment opportunities. This status matters because it grants access to investments that are often riskier or less available to the general public, reflecting a higher level of financial knowledge or resources.
placement agent financial
"ThinkEquity LLC (the “Placement Agent”) acted as the exclusive placement agent for the Offering"
A placement agent is a professional or firm that helps organizations raise money from investors, such as individuals, institutions, or funds. They act like matchmakers, connecting those seeking investments with the right investors and guiding the process to ensure successful funding. For investors, they can provide access to exclusive opportunities and help navigate complex fundraising efforts.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 18, 2026, Zoomcar Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”) in connection with the second closing (the “Second Closing”) of the previously announced private placement of the Company’s Series A units (the “Units”), each Unit consisting of (i) one share of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), and (ii) one Series A warrant to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) (the “Warrants,” and the transaction, the “Offering”). The Units were sold at a purchase price of $1,000 per Unit. The Offering is being conducted pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506(c) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

 

At the Second Closing, the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 662 Units, consisting of 662 Preferred Shares and Warrants to purchase up to 662 shares of Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $537,000, before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. The Offering provides for the sale of up to an aggregate of $5,000,000 of Units, plus up to an additional $5,000,000 of Units issuable pursuant to an overallotment option exercisable by the placement agent in its sole discretion, in one or more closings, with a minimum subscription threshold of $1,000,000 having been satisfied. The Offering is scheduled to terminate on June 30, 2026, unless extended in the Company’s discretion. Subscription amounts were deposited into escrow with CSC Delaware Trust Company, as escrow agent, pending the Second Closing.

 

The Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”), at an initial conversion price of $0.05 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein, including pursuant to an alternate conversion right and price-reset provisions set forth in the Certificate of Designation. The Warrants have an exercise price of $0.0625 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein, are exercisable beginning on the date of issuance, and expire five (5) years from the date of issuance.

 

In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Purchasers, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) registering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares and upon exercise of the Warrants by no later than the fifteenth (15th) calendar day following the Second Closing, and to use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within the time periods specified therein. The Registration Rights Agreement provides for the payment of partial liquidated damages in certain circumstances if the Company fails to satisfy its registration obligations.

 

ThinkEquity LLC (the “Placement Agent”) acted as the exclusive placement agent for the Offering pursuant to a placement agent agreement, dated as of June 18, 2026 (the “Placement Agent Agreement”), between the Company and the Placement Agent. As compensation for its services, the Company agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 10.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds received by the Company from the Purchasers at each closing, to reimburse certain of the Placement Agent’s expenses, to pay a non-accountable expense allowance equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds, and to issue to the Placement Agent (or its designees) warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 10% of the shares of Common Stock underlying the securities sold in the Offering, assuming full conversion. At the Second Closing, the Company issued Placement Agent Warrants to purchase up to 67 shares of Common Stock, having terms substantially similar to the Warrants.

 

The Purchase Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement, the Placement Agent Agreement, the form of Placement Agent Warrant, Certificate of Designation and the Form of Series A Warrant do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, copies of which (or the forms of which) are filed as exhibits hereto.

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 by reference into this Item 3.02.

 

The Units, the Preferred Shares, the Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants described in Item 1.01 above, and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares and upon exercise of the Warrants and the Placement Agent Warrants, were offered and sold without registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(c) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The Company relied on these exemptions based, in part, on representations made by each Purchaser, including that each Purchaser is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, and the Company took reasonable steps to verify each Purchaser’s accredited investor status. The securities have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
