Up to 36,363,636 Shares of Common Stock
Up to 72,727,272 Warrants to Purchase Common Stock
Up to 72,727,272 Shares of Common Stock Underlying the Warrants
Fly-E Group, Inc.
Fly-E Group, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is offering on a reasonable best efforts basis up to 36,363,636 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 (the “Common Stock”) and up to 72,727,272 warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase Common Stock (including shares of Common Stock underlying warrants) for gross proceeds of up to approximately $8.0 million. Each share of Common Stock is being sold together with two Warrants, with each Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock. The shares of Common Stock and accompanying Warrants must be purchased together in this offering but will be issued separately. Each Warrant is exercisable immediately with an exercise price equal to 120% of the offering price, and expires on the fifth anniversary of the issuance date, subject to certain adjustments. We are offering the securities for an assumed offering price of $0.22 per share of Common Stock and accompanying Warrants, which was 50% of the last reported sale price for our Common Stock on Nasdaq on April 17, 2025. The final offering price will be determined through negotiation between us and the Placement Agent (as defined below) in the offering, may be at a discount to the current market price, and the recent market price used throughout this preliminary prospectus may not be indicative of the actual offering price.
Our Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “FLYE.” On April 17, 2025, the closing trading price for our Common Stock, as reported on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Nasdaq”), was US$0.44 per share. The Warrants offered hereby are not listed on any stock exchange or any trading system, and we do not expect a market for the Warrants to develop.
We have retained American Trust Investment Services, Inc., LLC to act as our exclusive placement agent (the “Placement Agent” or “ATIS”) in connection with this offering. The Placement Agent has no obligation to buy any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number of dollar amount of securities. The Placement Agent is arranging for the sale of Common Stock and accompanying Warrants offered in this prospectus on a “best-efforts” basis and such Common Stock and accompanying underlying the Warrants are not being offered on a firm commitment by the Placement Agent. The offering will terminate on [●], 2025, unless completed sooner or unless we decide to terminate the offering (which we may do at any time in our discretion) prior to that date. We will deliver all securities to be issued in connection with this offering delivery versus payment or receipt versus payment, as the case may be, upon receipt of investor funds received by us. Accordingly, neither we nor the Placement Agent (as defined below) have made any arrangements to place investor funds in an escrow account or trust account since the Placement Agent will not receive investor funds in connection with the sale of the securities offered hereunder.
We have received a written notification from Nasdaq on October 2, 2024, notifying us that we are not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Rules for continued listing on the Nasdaq. To regain compliance, our Common Stock must have a closing bid price of at least US$1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days by March 31, 2025. On April 2, 2025, Nasdaq notified us that, although the Company has not regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, the Company is eligible to receive an additional 180 calendar day period or until September 29, 2025, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A). We will monitor the closing bid price of our Common Stock and may, if appropriate, consider implementing available options, including, but not limited to, implementing a reverse share split of our Common Stock, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under the Nasdaq Listing Rules. See “Risk Factors – Risks Related to this Offering and Our Securities – There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq.”
We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” as defined in the federal securities laws and are subject to reduced public company reporting requirements. See “Prospectus Summary — Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company” and “Prospectus Summary — Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company.”
Because our directors and executive officers control a majority of the voting power of our Common Stock, we are deemed a “controlled company” under the listing rules of Nasdaq, and we qualify for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements afforded to controlled companies. Although we currently do not intend to rely on the “controlled company” exemption, we could elect to rely on this exemption in the future. If we so elect, you will not have the same protection afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to these corporate governance requirements. See “Prospectus Summary— Implication of Being a Controlled Company.”
An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk and should be considered only by persons who can afford the loss of their entire investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 11 of this prospectus, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Report”), our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2024, September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2024 (collectively, the “2024 Quarterly Reports”) and in our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that are incorporated herein by reference before you make your decision to invest in our securities.
Neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
