NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES (CONTINUED)

In November 2024, the Company decided to restructure its European operations by phasing out the existing subsidiary-based direct sales model and implementing a centralized dealership distribution system. This strategic shift aims to appoint qualified regional distributors with proven market penetration capabilities, thereby reducing reliance on maintaining local operational entities.

Concurrently, the Company is reallocating capital and managerial resources to accelerate growth in its core markets of North America and Asia.

As a result of this strategic shift, three European subsidiaries: CEGE, Automotive Europe GmbH (“CAE”), and Cenntro EV Center Italy S.R. (“the disposal group”) were scheduled for structured dissolution.

Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the results the disposal group as a discontinued operation for the periods presented in accordance with ASC 210-05, Discontinued Operations represented the disposal group a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. Further, the related current and non-current assets and liabilities associated with the disposal group are reflected as held for sale in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The numbers in all of the relevant footnote disclosures are also adjusted for the current year and comparative periods. No loss was recognized on the initial measurement of the disposal group as held for sale.

The carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities of CEGE, CAE and Cenntro EV Center Italy S.R.L. included in assets and liabilities of discontinued operations were as follows:

The key components of loss from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES (CONTINUED)

As of September 30, 2025, Cenntro Inc.’s subsidiaries were as follows:

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2025 and for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Certain information and disclosures, which are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. The interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or any future periods.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include estimates and judgments applied in determination of provision for credit losses, lower of cost and net realizable value of inventories, impairment losses for long-lived assets and investments, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and fair value measurement for share-based compensation expense, convertible promissory notes and warrants. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.

ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. These tiers include:

Level 1—defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2—defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

Level 3—defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company’s financial instruments not reported at fair value primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, amount due from and due to a related party, accounts payable and other current liabilities and short-term loans.

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and other current assets, accounts payable, other current liabilities, bank loans and amount due from and due to a related party, current were approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items. The estimated fair values of loan from third party, and amount due from a related party, non-current were not materially different from their carrying value as presented due to the brief maturities and because the interest rates on these borrowings approximate those that would have been available for loans of similar remaining maturities and risk profiles.

Available-for-sale investments and currency-cross swap were classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they were valued using quoted prices in active markets. Our debt security investments are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. As the Issuer is not yet listed and there are no similar companies in the market at the same stage of development for comparison, the Issuer is difficult to value, and the valuation is not considered reliable. Therefore, the Company develop own assumption by future cash flow forecast, which contains principle paid and interests accrued.

The fair value option provides an election that allows a company to irrevocably elect to record certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis at initial recognition. The Company has elected to apply the fair value option to: i) convertible promissory notes payable due to the complexity of the various conversion and settlement options available to notes holders; ii) convertible loan receivable, which was recognized as debt security in long-term investments, and iii) currency-cross swap, which was recognized as derivative financial instruments in short-term investments.

The convertible promissory notes payable accounted for under the fair value option election are each a debt host financial instrument containing embedded features that would otherwise be required to be bifurcated from the debt-host and recognized as separate derivative liabilities subject to initial and subsequent periodic estimated fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP. Notwithstanding, when the fair value option election is applied to financial liabilities, bifurcation of an embedded derivative is not required, and the financial liability is initially measured at its issue-date estimated fair value and then subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis as of each reporting period date.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

The portion of the change in fair value attributed to a change in the instrument-specific credit risk is recognized as a component of other comprehensive income and the remaining amount of the fair value adjustment is recognized as changes in fair value of convertible promissory notes and derivative liabilities in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. The estimated fair value adjustment is presented in a respective single line item within other expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations because the change in fair value of the convertible notes was not attributable to instrument-specific credit risk.

In connection with the issuances of convertible promissory notes, the Company issued investor warrants and placement agent warrants to purchase warrant shares of the Company. The Company utilizes a Binomial model to estimate the fair value of the warrants and are considered a Level 3 fair value measurement. The warrants are measured at each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations.

As a practical expedient, the Company uses Net Asset Value (“NAV”) or its equivalent to measure the fair value of its certain fund investment. The Company’s investments valued at NAV as a practical expedient are: i) private equity funds, which represent the investment in equity security on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet; ii) wealth management products purchased from banks, which represents the available-for-sale investments in short-term investments on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The Company recognizes revenue when goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In determining when and how revenue is recognized from contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five-step analysis: (i) identification of a contract with the customer; (ii) determination of performance obligations; (iii) measurement of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The Company generates revenue primarily through sales of light-duty ECVs, sales of ECV parts, and sales of off-road electric vehicles.

The promised warranty does not provide the clients with a service in addition to the assurance that the product complies with agreed-upon contract specifications and is considered an assurance warranty. The warranty is not considered separate performance obligations and no revenue is associated with these services under ASC 606. Historically, the Company has not experienced material costs for quality assurance and, therefore, does not believe an accrual for these costs is necessary.

Revenue is recognized upon the satisfaction of its performance obligation (upon transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers) in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties (for example, value added taxes).

The Company acts as a principal in the revenue generating process and should recognize revenue on a gross basis. Revenues are measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products to customers. Consideration is recorded net of sales returns and VAT. Sales returns is estimated based on historical experiences, which were insignificant for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The consideration is fixed, with no variable consideration. All transactions are settled in cash within the normal credit period, and there is no financing component.

Shipping and handling costs for product shipments occur prior to the customer obtaining control of the goods are accounted for as fulfilment costs rather than separate performance obligations and recorded as sales and marketing expenses.

The following table disaggregated the Company’s revenues by product line for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

The Company’s revenues are primarily derived from America, Europe and Asia. The following table set forth disaggregation of revenue by customer location.

Contract Balances

Timing of revenue recognition was once the Company has determined that the customer has obtained control over the product. Accounts receivable represent revenue recognized for the amounts invoiced and/or prior to invoicing when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation and has an unconditional right to the payment.

Contractual liabilities primarily represent the Company’s obligation to transfer additional goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration. The consideration received remains a contractual liability until goods or services have been provided to the customer. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized $1,048,505 and $946,071 revenue that was included in contractual liabilities as of January 1, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The following table provided information about receivables and contractual liabilities from contracts with customers:

The Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, EGC can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until such time as those standards apply to private companies. As a result, the Company’s operating results and financial statements may not be comparable to the operating results and financial statements of other companies who have adopted the new or revised accounting standards.

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The purpose of the amendment is to enable investors to better understand an entity’s overall performance and assess potential future cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The guidance is to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The adoption has no significant impact on the Company’s financial statements and disclosure.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which requires disclosure of incremental income tax information within the rate reconciliation and expanded disclosures of income taxes paid, among other disclosure requirements. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company’s management does not believe the adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have a material impact on its financial statements and disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This new guidance is designed to improve the disclosures about the types of expenses, including employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, and costs incurred related to inventory and manufacturing activities. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 on a prospective basis with optional retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, which amends ASC 326-20 to address the measurement of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under ASC 606. The update introduces a practical expedient available to all entities and an accounting policy election specifically for non-public business entities that adopt the practical expedient, aiming to simplify and reduce the cost complexity associated with estimating expected credit losses for such financial assets. The guidance was developed in conjunction with the Private Company Council to respond to stakeholder concerns regarding the burdens of existing credit loss estimation requirements for these transactions. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting standard will have on its consolidated financial statements. The Company will adopt the new guidance in accordance with the effective dates specified in ASU 2025-05.

Except as mentioned above, the Company does not believe other recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and comprehensive loss and statements of cash flows.

Commencing 5 days after the occurrence of any event of default, the interest shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 10% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.

The financial liability was initially measured at its issue-date estimated fair value and subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at each reporting period date.

Note amendment

On May 16, 2025, the Company and About Investment Pte. Ltd. a Singapore exempt private company limited by shares (“Holder”) entered into an amendment (the “Note Amendment”) to the Note originally issued by the Company on July 20, 2022, in an original principal amount of $52,237,500.

Pursuant to the Note Amendment, the parties have agreed to amend the floor price of any conversions of the Note to $0.202 per share equal to an eighty percent (80%) discount of the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock during the trading day immediately preceding the Note Amendment, which will be adjusted accordingly in the event of a share split or combination. The terms of the Amended Note continue to grant the Holder the right to convert from time to time at its election, all or any portion of the outstanding balance of the Note into shares common stock of the Company at the conversion price, which is equal to the lesser of (i) the fixed conversion price or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the ten (10) day VWAP during the ten (10) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately prior to the applicable conversion date, and in each case subject to adjustment set forth in the Note.

The Note continues to contains an ownership limitation, pursuant to which the Company shall not effect any issuance of shares of common stock to the extent that such issuance would cause the Holder, together with its affiliates, to beneficially own a number of common shares exceeding 9.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding on such date, including shares of common stock issuable upon such conversion under the Note.

The movement of Note during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

The estimated fair value of the Note as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was computed using a Monte Carlo Simulation Model, which incorporates significant inputs that are not observable in the market, and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. The unobservable inputs utilized for measuring the fair value of the Note reflects our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the Note as of the issuance date and subsequent reporting period.

NOTE 15 - CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE AND WARRANT (CONTINUED)

We determined the fair value by using the following key inputs to the Monte Carlo Simulation Model:

Warrant

Accompany with the Note, the Company issued to the same investor warrants to purchase up to 2,473,334 warrant shares of the Company, with an exercise price of $1.61 per share, which may be exercised by the holders on a cashless basis by using Black-Scholes model to determine the net settlement shares.

Additionally, after the Company completed the above Note financing, the Company issued to the placement agent warrants to purchase 247,333 warrant shares of the Company at same day, as part of the underwriter’s commission. The warrants were issued with an exercise price of $1.77 per share.

Both warrants are exercisable from the date of issuance and have a term offive years from the date of issuance. They were presented as liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value in accordance with ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. The liabilities then will be remeasured every reporting period with any change to fair value recorded as other income (expense) in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The movement of warrants during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

The fair value for thesetwo warrants were computed using the Binomial model with the following assumptions:

NOTE 16- SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

On the Implementation Date, and pursuant to the Scheme, Cenntro Inc. assumed CEGL’s obligations with respect to the settlement of the options that were issued by CEGL prior to the Implementation Date pursuant to CEGL’s amended and restated 2016 incentive stock option plan and 2022 stock incentive plan (the “Share Option Plans”) by way adoption of a new incentive plan, the Company’s 2023 equity incentive plan (the “2023 Plan”).

A summary of share options activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

The Company calculated the fair value of the share options on the grant date and modification date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing valuation model. The assumptions used in the valuation model are summarized in the following table.

The expected volatility is calculated based on the annualized standard deviation of the daily return embedded in historical share prices of the Company. The risk-free interest rate is estimated based on the yield to maturity of US treasury bonds based on the expected term of the incentive shares.

As of September 30, 2025, there was approximately $1,375,347 of total unrecognized compensation cost from continuing operations related to unvested share options. The unrecognized compensation costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 0.50 years.

NOTE 18 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

The Company may be involved in various legal proceedings, claims and other disputes arising from the commercial operations, projects, employees and other matters which, in general, are subject to uncertainties and in which the outcomes are not predictable. The Company determines whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. Although the outcomes of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted, the Company does not believe these actions, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Subject to retention of title and an instalment payment agreement, CAE sold 90 vehicles for a total price of EUR 2,185,721.32 (approximately $2,564,943.97 to the French company B-Moville S.A.S. (“B-Moville”) (under a contract dated August 23, 2021. B-MOVILLE had already settled an amount of EUR 58,787.33 by the end of 2022 and, therefore, still owed CAE an amount of EUR 2,126,933.99, of which EUR 548,244.11 was owed by the end of 2022 under the instalment agreement. B-Moville had withheld instalment payments due to alleged defects of the vehicles, without specifying the amount of the claims for reduction of the purchase price. B-Moville had handed over the cars to its parent company Swoopin Tech S.A.R.L. (“Swoopin”). Swoopin is insolvent and has been in judicial liquidation since November 2, 2022. The vehicles held by Swoopin were prevented from becoming part of the insolvency estate and being realized by the insolvency administrator. Due to the retention of title clause, the property of the 90 vehicles shall be reclaimed by CAE. In the meantime, Swoopin returned the vehicles to B-Moville. As of 14 May 2023, the insolvency court of Paris opened insolvency proceedings against B-Moville. CAE has filed its claims in the insolvency proceedings. However, the liquidator has advised that there is no prospect of payment to unsecured creditors, including CAE, following its declaration of claims. The recovery of the outstanding amount owed to CAE is deemed highly unlikely. All Receivable of CAE related to the case has been written off.

In June 2022, Sevic Systems SE (“Sevic”) filed for injunctive relief in a corporate court in Brussels, Belgium, alleging CAE infringement of Sevic’s intellectual property (“IP”) rights. The injunctive action was also directed against LEIE Center SRL (“LEIE”) and Cedar Europe GmbH (“Cedar”), two distribution partners of CAE. There, Sevic claims it acquired all IP rights to an electric vehicle, the so-called CITELEC model (“CITELEC”), fully and exclusively from the French company SH2M Sarl (“SH2M”) under Mr. Pierre Millet. Sevic claims these rights were acquired under a 2019 IP transfer agreement. According to Sevic, the METRO model (“METRO”) produced by Cenntro Electro Group Ltd. (“Cenntro”) and distributed by CAE derives directly from the CITELEC. The distribution of the METRO, therefore, allegedly infringes on Sevic’s IP rights. In its action, Sevic relies on (Belgian) copyright law and unfair business practices. On February 2, 2023, the president of the commercial court of Brussels rendered a judgment, declaring i) the claim against Cedar was inadmissible and ii) The main claim against CAE and LEIE was founded. According to the president’s opinion the CITELEC-model can enjoy copyright protection and determined it was sufficiently proven that Sevic acquired the copyrights of the CITELEC-model. The president then concluded that the distribution of the METRO-model in Belgium constituted a violation of article XI. 165 §1 of the Belgian Code of Economic Law and thereby ordered the cessation of the distribution of the METRO-model, a penalty in the form of a fine of EUR 20,000.00 per sold vehicle in Belgium and EUR 5,000.00 for each other infringement in Belgium after the judgement was served with a maximum fine of EUR 500,000.00 for LEIE and EUR 1,000,000.00 fine for CAE. Because CAE has not sold any METRO-models in Belgium, the Company believes the judgement is incorrect but has accrued the related liability according to the judgement made. On April 17, 2023 CAE filed a writ of appeal. The introductory hearing was scheduled for May 22, 2023. The judge did not give any legal assessment at the hearing. All parties have been granted deadlines for written pleadings. On January 29, 2025, CAE rejected the late delivered final writ by lawyers of Sevic, which should have been received by September 2, 2024. As of now, it is not possible to determine what the outcome of these proceedings will be.

On July 22, 2022, Xiongjian Chen filed a complaint against Cenntro Electric Group Limited (“CENN”), Cenntro Automotive Group Limited (“CAG”), Cenntro Enterprise Limited (“CEL”) and Peter Z.

The complaint seeks, among other things, money damages (including compensatory and consequential damages) in the amount of $19 million, plus interest, attorneys’ fees and expenses. Defendants moved to dismiss the complaint against all Defendants for failure to state a claim and for lack of personal jurisdiction over defendants CAG and CEL.

In addition, the District Court dismissed all the claims against Wang and CENN without prejudice and permitted the Plaintiff to amend his complaint within 30 days to address the deficiencies in his claims against Wang and CENN. On May 28, 2023, Plaintiff filed an amended complaint. On July 20, 2023 the Defendants filed a motion seeking the dismissal of that amended complaint. On September 22, 2023, the Plaintiff filed to oppose our Motion to Dismiss and Motion to Strike. The Defendants filed our reply briefs by the deadline on November 9, 2023. On January 25, 2024, the Magistrate Judge entered an Order granting Plaintiff’s Motion to Amend and denying our Motion to Strike as moot. On November 12, 2024, District Court issued an Order, dismissing Plaintiff’s all claims except with respect to the promissory estoppel claim against Peter Wang.

On December 30, 2024, the Defendant filed a Reply in Further Support of Peter Wang’s Motion for Reconsideration, which, in accordance with the Court’s practices, was filed as part of a Motion for Leave to File a Reply Brief, against which the Plaintiff filed an Opposition on January 17, 2025. On May 30, 2025, the Court issued the order denying both sides’ respective motions for reconsideration. On June 10, 2025, Plaintiff’s counsel informed us that they do not intend to file a second amended complaint, which means that CAC, CAG, CEL and CENN will be dismissed from the case; and that the case will proceed to discovery solely on Plaintiff’s one claim against Wang for promissory estoppel. At the in-person conference on August 19, 2025, the Court ordered deadlines for completing various stages of discovery in the case, with May 15, 2026 being the deadline for all fact discovery. We anticipate remote financial consequences will incur to the company.
