Complete Solaria, Inc.

(1) Organization

(a) Description of business

Complete Solaria, Inc. (the “Company” or “Complete Solaria”) is incorporated in Delaware and is a residential solar installer that offers storage and home energy solutions to customers in North America. The Company was formed through Complete Solar Holding Corporation’s acquisition of The Solaria Corporation (“Solaria”). The Company is headquartered in Fremont, California.

Complete Solar, Inc. (“Complete Solar”) was incorporated in Delaware on February 22, 2010. Through February 2022, the Company operated as Complete Solar, Inc., a single legal entity. In February 2022, the Company implemented a holding company reorganization (the “Reorganization”) in which the Company created and incorporated Complete Solar Holding Corporation (“Complete Solar Holdings”). As a result of the Reorganization, Complete Solar Holdings became the successor entity to Complete Solar, Inc. Subsequently, Complete Solar Holdings changed its name to Complete Solaria, Inc.

On July 18, 2023, the Company consummated a series of merger transactions contemplated by an Amended and Restated Business Combination Agreement entered into with wholly-owned subsidiaries of Freedom Acquisition I Corp. (“FACT”) entered into on May 26, 2023 (“Mergers”), equating to a reverse recapitalization for accounting purposes. Under the reverse recapitalization of accounting, FACT was treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. This determination was based on the Company having a majority of the voting power of the post-combination company, the Company’s senior management comprising substantially all of the senior management of the post-combination company, and the Company’s operations comprising the ongoing operations of the post-combination company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Mergers were treated as the equivalent of a capital transaction in which Complete Solaria issued stock for the net assets of FACT. The net assets of FACT were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

On August 5, 2024, Complete Solaria entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) among Complete Solaria, SunPower Corporation (“SunPower”) and SunPower’s direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “SunPower Debtors”) providing for the Company’s purchase of certain assets relating to the Blue Raven Solar business, New Homes Business and Non-Installing Dealer network previously operated by the SunPower Debtors (“SunPower Acquisition”). The APA was entered into in connection with a voluntary petition filed by SunPower under Chapter 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C.§§ 101-1532. The sale by SunPower was approved on September 23, 2024, by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. The Company completed the acquisition on September 30, 2024.

(b) Liquidity and going concern

Since inception through June 29, 2025, the Company incurred recurring losses and has incurred negative cash flows from operations. The Company’s loss from continuing operations was $14.3 million in the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $425.7 million, total debt of $152.9 million, and cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, of $11.1 million as of June 29, 2025. The Company believes that operating losses and negative operating cash flows will continue into the foreseeable future. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management plans to obtain additional funding when necessary. Historically, the Company’s activities primarily have been financed through private placements of equity securities, the issuance of convertible notes and debt, cash generated from operations, and proceeds from the Mergers.

As a result of not timely filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024, the Company is not currently eligible to use a registration statement on Form S-3 that would allow the Company to continuously incorporate by reference its SEC reports into the registration statement, to use “shelf” registration statements to conduct offerings, or to use its at-the-market offering facility until approximately one year from the date the Company has regained and maintained status as a current filer. The Company’s inability to use Form S-3 may significantly impair its ability to raise necessary capital to fund its operations and execute its strategy. If the Company seeks to access the capital markets through a registered offering during the period of time that it is unable to use Form S-3, the Company may be required to publicly disclose the proposed offering and the material terms thereof before the offering commences, the Company may experience delays in the offering process due to SEC review of a Form S-1 registration statement, and the Company may incur increased offering and transaction costs and other considerations. If the Company is unable to raise capital through a registered offering, the Company would be required to conduct its equity financing transactions on a private placement basis, which may be subject to pricing, size and other limitations imposed under the Nasdaq rules, or seek other sources of capital. The foregoing limitations on the Company’s financing approaches could prevent the Company from pursuing transactions or implementing business strategies that would be beneficial to its business.

If the Company is not able to secure adequate additional funding when needed, the Company will need to reevaluate its operating plan and may be forced to make reductions in spending, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible, or suspend or curtail planned programs or cease operations entirely. These actions could materially impact the Company’s business, results of operations and future prospects. While the Company has been able to raise multiple rounds of financing, there can be no assurance that in the event the Company requires additional financing, such financing will be available on terms that are favorable, or at all. Failure to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, raise additional capital or reduce certain discretionary spending would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives.

Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. They do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from uncertainty related to its ability to continue as a going concern.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of presentation

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 29, 2025, and the results of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any other future period. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 30, 2025.

On March 10, 2025, the Company’s board of directors approved a change in the Company’s fiscal year end to a 52-to-53-week fiscal year that ends on the Sunday closest to December 31. This change was effective for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024. The Company’s first fiscal quarters for 2025 and 2024 in this report on Form 10-Q ended June 29, 2025 (“Second Quarter 2025”) and June 30, 2024 (“Second Quarter 2024”), respectively.

(b) Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash

The Company reconciles cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported in its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets that aggregate to the beginning and ending balances shown in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as follows*(in thousands)*:

(c) Estimated credit losses

The Company recognizes an allowance for credit loss at the time a receivable is recorded based on the Company’s estimate of expected credit losses, historical write-off experience, and current account knowledge, and adjusts this estimate over the life of the receivable as needed. The Company evaluates the aggregation and risk characteristics of a receivable pool and develops loss rates that reflect historical collections, current forecasts of future economic conditions over the time horizon that the Company is exposed to credit risk, and payment terms or conditions that may materially affect future forecasts.

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition when deemed necessary. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses based on the expected collectability of all accounts receivable, which takes into consideration an analysis of historical bad debts, specific customer creditworthiness and current economic trends. The Company believes that its concentration of credit risk is limited because of the large number of customers, credit quality of the customer base, small account balances for most of these customers, and customer geographic diversification. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure relating to its customers.

The following table summarizes the allowance for credit losses as follows*(in thousands)*:

(d) Contract assets and contract liabilities

Contract assets consist of unbilled receivables which represent revenue that has been recognized in advance of billing the customer. Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and customer advances, which represent consideration received from a customer prior to transferring control of goods or services to the customer under the terms of a sales contract. Total contract assets and contract liabilities balances as of the respective dates are as follows*(in thousands)*:

The Company typically invoices its customers upon completion of set milestones, generally upon installation of the solar energy system with the remaining balance invoiced upon passing final building inspection. Standard payment terms to customers range from 30 to 60 days. When the Company receives payment, or when such payment is unconditionally due from a customer prior to delivering goods or services to the customer under the terms of a customer agreement, the Company records this deferred revenue as a contract liability. As installation projects are typically completed within 12-months, the Company’s contract liability is reflected within current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

(e) Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized for Residential Solar Installation and New Homes Business when a customer obtains control of promised products and services and the Company has satisfied its performance obligations which is the date by which substantially all of its design and installation is complete for a fully functioning solar power system to interconnect to the local power grid.

Installation includes the design of a solar energy system, the delivery of the components of the solar energy system (i.e., photovoltaic system, inverter, battery storage, etc.), installation services and services facilitating the connection of the solar energy system to the power grid. The Company accounts for these services as inputs to a combined output, resulting in a single service-based performance obligation.

The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for the products and services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:

Residential Solar Installation revenues

The Company’s Residential Solar Installation segment sells products through a network of installing and non-installing dealers and resellers, as well as its internal sales team. The Company’s contracts with customers include three primary contract types:

New Homes Business revenues

The Company’s New Homes Business segment sells through a network of home builders as well as its internal sales team. The Company’s contracts with customers include two primary contract types:

The Company’s performance obligation for both of these reportable segments is to design and install a fully functioning solar energy system. For all contract types (with the exception of New Homes Business Lease agreements), the Company recognizes revenue over time. The Company’s over-time revenue recognition begins when the solar power system is fully installed (as it is at this point that control of the asset begins to be transferred to the customer, and the customer retains the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the solar power system). The Company recognizes revenue using the input method based on direct costs to install the system and defers the costs of installation until such time that control of the asset transfers to the customer (installation). For New Homes Business Lease agreements, the Company considers the performance obligation to be satisfied at a point in time upon acceptance of the system by the customer.

Revenue is generally recognized at the transaction price contained within the agreement, net of costs of financing, or other consideration paid to the customers that is not in exchange for a distinct good or service. The Company’s arrangements may contain clauses that can either increase or decrease the transaction price. Variable consideration is estimated at each measurement date at its most likely amount to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur and true-ups are applied prospectively as such estimates change.

The Company records deferred revenue for amounts invoiced that are received in advance of the provisioning of services. In certain contracts with customers, the Company arranges for a third-party financing partner to provide financing to the customer. The Company collects upfront from the financing partner and the customer will provide instalment payments to the financing partner. The Company records revenue in the amount received from the financing partner, net of any financing fees charged to the homeowner, which the Company considers to be a customer incentive. None of the Company’s contracts contain a significant financing component.

Costs to obtain and fulfill contracts

The Company’s costs to obtain and fulfill contracts, when recognized, associated with systems sales are expensed as sales commission and cost of revenue, respectively. In addition, incentives the Company provides to its customers, such as discounts and rebates, are recorded net to the revenue the Company has recognized on the solar power system.

Disaggregation of revenue

Refer to the table below for the Company’s revenue recognized*(in thousands)*:

All revenue was generated in the United States.

Remaining performance obligations

The Company elected the practical expedient not to disclose the remaining performance obligations for contracts that are less than one year in length.

Incremental costs of obtaining customer contracts

Incremental costs of obtaining customer contracts consist of sales commissions, which are costs paid to third-party vendors who source residential customer contracts for the sale of solar energy systems by the Company. The Company defers sales commissions and recognizes expenses in accordance with the timing of the related revenue recognition. Amortization of deferred commissions is recorded as sales commissions in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As of June 29, 2025, and December 29, 2024, deferred commissions were not material.

(f) Accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The objective of ASU 2023-09 is to enhance disclosures related to income taxes, including specific thresholds for inclusion within the tabular disclosure of income tax rate reconciliation and specified information about income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for public companies starting in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company will adopt this ASU in its annual report for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2025. The Company is assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

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, which requires the disaggregation of certain expenses in the notes of the financial statements to provide enhanced transparency into the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. The FASB subsequently issued ASU 2025-01 “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date”, which amends the effective date of ASU 2024-03 to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in ASU 2024-03 in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption of ASU 2024-03 is permitted. The Company is assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-04, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) (“ASU 2024-04”). The guidance in ASU 2024-04 clarifies the requirements related to accounting for the settlement of a debt instrument as an induced conversion. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of a reporting period if the entity has also adopted ASU 2020-06 for that period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2024-04 may have on its disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02 “Codification Improvements-Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements”, which removes various references to concepts statements from the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. This ASU is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects the new guidance will have an immaterial impact on its consolidated financial statements and intends to adopt the guidance when it becomes effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026.

(g) Correction of an immaterial error

During the preparation of the financial statements for the quarter ended June 29, 2025, the Company identified an immaterial classification error in its previously issued financial statements for the thirteen week period ended March 30, 2025. Specifically, due to a misclassification of certain payroll expenses, the Company understated Cost of revenue and overstated Gross profit by $7.6 million and understated Sales and marketing by $1.6 million and overstated General and administrative expenses by the aggregate of these amounts. The correction had no impact on net income (loss), earnings per share, total assets, total liabilities, or accumulated deficit for any period presented.

(h) Changes in related parties

During the thirteen week period ended June 29, 2025, CRSEF Solis Holdings, LLC and its affiliates (“Carlyle”), a related party, ceased to be a significant shareholder in the Company. Transactions previously reported with Carlyle have been disclosed as related party transactions. Following the change in the current quarter, beginning in the thirteen week period ended June 29, 2025, transactions with Carlyle are no longer disclosed as related party transactions.

During the thirteen week period ended June 29, 2025, the Company concluded that Polar Multi-Strategy Master Fund (“Polar”) ceased to be a related party. Transactions previously reported with Polar have been disclosed as related party transactions. Following the change in the current quarter, beginning in the thirteen week period ended June 29, 2025, transactions with Polar are no longer disclosed as related party transactions.

(3) Business Combination

SunPower acquisition

On September 30, 2024, commencing the Company’s fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of certain assets and assumption of certain liabilities of SunPower for an aggregate cash consideration paid of $54.5 million, net of $1.0 million of cash acquired. SunPower Corporation is a solar technology and energy services provider that offers fully integrated solar, storage, and home energy solutions to customers in the United States through an array of hardware, software, and “Smart Energy” solutions. The financial results of the SunPower acquisition have been included in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements since the date of SunPower acquisition. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations.

Transaction costs incurred in connection with the close of the SunPower acquisition totaled $7.2 million and were expensed by the Company and included in general and administrative expenses within the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year ended December 29, 2024.

The fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were based upon a preliminary valuation, and the Company’s estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period. Due to the complexities of acquiring assets out of bankruptcy the purchase accounting remains open for certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed. As of June 29, 2025, the Company identified a remeasurement of the fair value of acquired inventory resulting in a downward revision to the inventory with the offsetting adjustment to goodwill. Further adjustments to the Company’s inventory are anticipated within the 36 week period ending September 28, 2025, as the Company finalizes its provisional accounting for the business combination. The primary areas that remain provisional in addition to the measurement of the inventory acquired include the fair value of intangible assets and goodwill. The following table summarizes the provisional fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed*(in thousands)*:

(4) Fair Value Measurements

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value, on a recurring basis*(in thousands)*:

Subsequent to issuance, changes in the fair value of the derivative liabilities, liability classified warrants, forward purchase agreements and SAFEs are recorded within Other (expense) income, net in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Derivative liabilities

The Company issued derivative liabilities in conjunction with the issuance of certain convertible notes in July 2024 and September 2024 (refer to Note 9 – Borrowings and Derivative Liabilities). The Company valued the derivative liabilities as of June 29, 2025, and December 29, 2024 using a binomial lattice model, which includes Level 3 unobservable inputs. The key inputs used were dividend yield, the Company’s common stock price, volatility, risk-free rate and the expected term of the derivative liabilities.

The July 2024 Notes derivative liability valuation included the following inputs:

The September 2024 Notes derivative liability valuation included the following inputs:

Public warrants

The public warrants are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The public warrants were valued based on the closing price of the publicly traded instrument.

Private placement and working capital warrants

The private placement and working capital warrants are measured at fair value. The Company valued the private placement and working capital warrants, based on a Black-Scholes Option Pricing Method, which included the following inputs:

Forward purchase agreement liabilities

FPAs are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis. The expected volatility is determined based on the historical equity volatility of comparable companies over a period that matches the simulation period, which included the following inputs:

SAFE agreement with related party

The SAFE Agreement was valued based on a conversion probability of 50% based on historical SAFE agreements and a 50% discount rate at the time of conversion as of June 29, 2025, and December 29, 2024.

Financial liabilities not measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial liabilities that were not measured at fair value, on a non-recurring basis*(in thousands)*:

As of June 29, 2025, and December 29, 2024, the July 2024 Notes and the September 2024 Notes were fair valued using a binomial lattice model, which includes Level 3, unobservable inputs. The key inputs used are consistent with those used to fair value the derivative liabilities as discussed under Derivative Liabilities above.

(5) Other Intangible Assets

The Company’s other intangible assets were acquired in connection with the SunPower Acquisition on September 30, 2024. The following table represents the Company’s other intangible assets with finite useful lives as of June 29, 2025, and December 29, 2024*(in thousands)*:

Aggregate amortization expense of intangible assets was $0.7 million $1.4 million for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2025, respectively. Amortization expense waszero in each of the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 30, 2024. Amortization expense is recognized within general and administrative expenses in the accompany unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

(6) Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities

Accrued expenses andother current liabilities consist of the following*(in thousands)*:

(7) Other (Expense) Income, Net

(8) Capital Stock

The Company has authorized the issuance of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock as of June 29, 2025. No preferred stock has been issued andnone are outstanding as of June 29, 2025.

Common stock purchase agreement

On July 16, 2024, the Company entered into a common stock purchase agreement with White Lion Capital, LLC (“White Lion”), as amended on July 24, 2024 (“White Lion SPA”), and a related registration rights agreement for an equity line of credit financing facility. Pursuant to the White Lion SPA, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require White Lion to purchase, from time to time, up to $30 million in aggregate gross purchase price of newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to the caps and certain limitations and conditions set forth in the White Lion SPA, including terms that restrict the ability of the Company to issue shares of common stock to White Lion that would result in White Lion beneficially owning more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

On August 14, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to the White Lion SPA (collectively with the White Lion SPA “White Lion Amended SPA”). The White Lion Amended SPA provides that the Company may notify White Lion to exercise the Company’s right to sell shares of its common stock by delivering an Hour Rapid Purchase Notice. If the Company delivers an Hour Rapid Purchase Notice, the Company shall deliver to White Lion shares of common stock not to exceed the lesser of (i) five percent of the Average Daily Trading Volume on the date of an Hour Rapid Purchase Notice and (ii)100,000 shares of common stock. The closing of the transactions under an Hour Rapid Purchase Notice will occur one Business Day following the date on which the Hour Rapid Purchase Notice is delivered. At such closing, White Lion will pay the Company the Hour Rapid Purchase Investment Amount equal to the number of shares of common stock subject to the applicable Hour Rapid Purchase Notice multiplied by the lowest traded price of the Company’s common stock during the one-hour period following White Lion’s consent to the acceptance of the applicable Hour Rapid Purchase Notice. Under the White Lion Amended SPA, the Company did not issue any shares of common stock in the periods ended June 29, 2025, and June 30, 2024.

The Company has reserved shares of common stock for issuance related to the following:

Warrants

The potential number of shares of the Company’s common stock for outstanding warrants were as follows:

Ayna warrant

On June 17, 2024, a warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (“Ayna Warrant”) was issued to Ayna.AI LLC (“Ayna”) for the purchase of 6,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price per share of $0.01, subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Ayna Warrant. At issuance, the fair value of the Ayna Warrant was determined to be $9.2 million, based on the intrinsic value of the Ayna Warrant and the $0.01 per share exercise price. The Ayna Warrant was set to expire on June 17, 2029. The issuance of the Ayna Warrant by the Company to Ayna was in satisfaction of the compensation for services provided to the Company by Ayna under the terms of a statement of work (“Ayna SOW”), signed May 21, 2024 (and effective as of March 12, 2024), as incorporated into a master services agreement dated March 12, 2024. Under the Ayna SOW, Ayna provided services in connection with the anticipated return of the Company to cash-flow positive performance.

The Ayna Warrant was accounted for under ASC 718 as it met the conditions for equity classification and therefore, the Ayna Warrant was not subsequently remeasured in future periods. The Company recognized the full amount of the fair value of $9.2 million as an expense between the date of issue and December 29, 2024.

The Ayna Warrant became fully exercisable for the 6,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on September 9, 2024. The Ayna Warrant was exercised in full for cash of $0.06 million in January 2025.

Cantor warrant

In July 2024, the Company issued a warrant (“Cantor Warrant”) to a third-party service provider to purchase 3,066,141 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for services provided in the issuance of the July 2024 Notes (refer to Note 9 – Borrowings and Derivative Liabilities). The Cantor Warrant was immediately exercisable at a price of $1.68 per share and has an expiration date in July 2029. At issuance, the fair value of the Cantor Warrant was determined to be $1.4 million, of which $0.9 million was recorded as a debt discount and $0.5 million was attributable to the convertible notes issued in the Exchange Agreement (as defined in Note 9 – Borrowings and Derivative Liabilities) and reduced the gain on the troubled debt restructuring recognized in its annual consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for fiscal 2024 as described in Note 9 – Borrowings and Derivative Liabilities. The fair value of this warrant was derived using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions: expected volatility of 55%; risk-free interest rate of 4.2%; expected term of 5 years; and no dividend yield. The fair value of this warrant was recorded within additional paid-in capital on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and has not been subsequently remeasured in future periods as it met the conditions for equity classification.

Carlyle warrant

In February 2022, as part of a debt financing arrangement with Carlyle , the Company issued Carlyle a warrant to purchase 2,886,952 shares of Legacy Complete Solaria Common Stock at a price per share of $0.01. The warrant contained two tranches, the first of which was immediately exercisable for 1,995,879 shares of common stock. The second tranche expired on December 31, 2022, prior to becoming exercisable. In December 2023, Carlyle was issued a warrant to purchase an additional 2,190,604 shares of the Company’s common stock related to an anti-dilution provision under the then-existing debt arrangement with Carlyle.

In July 2023, and in connection with the closing of the Mergers, the Company entered into the Carlyle Warrant Amendment (as defined in Note 9 – Borrowings and Derivative Liabilities), Based on the exchange ratio included in the Mergers, the 1,995,879 outstanding warrants to purchase Legacy Complete Solaria Common Stock prior to modification were exchanged into warrants to purchase 1,995,879 shares of Complete Solaria Common Stock. The Carlyle Warrant Amendment required the Company to issue to Carlyle a warrant to purchase up to 2,745,879 shares of Complete Solaria Common Stock at a price per share of $0.01, which was inclusive of the outstanding warrant to purchase 1,995,879 shares at the time of modification. The warrant, which expires on July 18, 2030, provided Carlyle with the right to purchase shares of Complete Solaria Common Stock based on (a) the greater of (i)1,995,879 shares and (ii) the number of shares equal to 2.795% of Complete Solaria’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, on a fully-diluted basis; plus (b) on and after the date that was ten (10) days after the date of the agreement, an additional 350,000 shares; plus (c) on and after the date that was thirty (30) days after the date of the agreement, if the original investment amount had not been repaid, an additional 150,000 shares; plus (d) on and after the date that was ninety (90) days after the date of the agreement, if the original investment amount had not been repaid, an additional 250,000 shares, in each case, of Complete Solaria Common Stock at a price of $0.01 per share. The modification of the warrant resulted in the reclassification of previously equity-classified warrants to liability classification, which was accounted for in accordance with ASC 815 and ASC 718,Compensation – Stock Compensation.

Changes in the fair value of the Carlyle Warrant were recorded within Other (expense) income, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The change in the fair value of the Carlyle Warrant resulted in expense of $3.6 million and income of $2.9 million in the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2024, respectively.

As of June 30, 2024, the Carlyle Warrant had a fair value of $6.6 million. On July 1, 2024, in connection with the Exchange Agreement, the Carlyle Warrant was modified, and the modification fixed the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued upon exercise of the Carlyle Warrant at 4,936,483.

Indemnification agreements

From time to time, in its normal course of business, the Company may indemnify other parties, with which it enters into contractual relationships, including customers, lessors, and parties to other transactions with the Company. The Company may agree to hold other parties harmless against specific losses, such as those that could arise from breach of representation, covenant or third-party infringement claims. It may not be possible to determine the maximum potential amount of liability under such indemnification agreements due to the unique facts and circumstances that are likely to be involved in each particular claim and indemnification provision.

The Company records a liability when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines that a loss is reasonably possible and the loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the reasonably possible loss. The Company adjusts its accruals to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular case. Legal costs are expensed as incurred. Although claims are inherently unpredictable, the Company is not aware of any matters that may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

SolarPark litigation

In January 2023, SolarPark Korea Co., LTD (“SolarPark”) demanded approximately $80.0 million during discussions between the Company and SolarPark. In February 2023, the Company submitted its statement of claim seeking approximately $26.4 million in damages against SolarPark. The ultimate outcome of this arbitration is currently unknown and could result in a material liability to the Company. However, the Company believes that the allegations lack merit and intends to vigorously defend all claims asserted. No liability has been recorded in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as the likelihood of a loss is not probable at this time.

On March 16, 2023, SolarPark filed a complaint against Solaria and the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (“the court”). The complaint alleges a civil conspiracy involving misappropriation of trade secrets, defamation, tortious interference with contractual relations, inducement to breach of contract, and violation of California’s Unfair Competition Law. The complaint indicates that SolarPark has suffered in excess of $220.0 million in damages.

On May 11, 2023, SolarPark filed a motion for preliminary injunction to seek an order restraining the Company from using or disclosing SolarPark’s trade secrets, making or selling shingled modules other than those produced by SolarPark, and from soliciting solar module manufacturers to produce shingled modules using Solaria’s shingled patents. On May 18, 2023, the Company responded by filing a motion for partial dismissal and stay. On June 1, 2023, SolarPark filed an opposition to the Company’s motion for dismissal and stay and a reply in support of their motion for preliminary injunction. On June 8, 2023, the Company replied in support of its motion for partial dismissal and stay. On July 11, 2023, the court conducted a hearing to consider SolarPark’s and the Company’s respective motions. On August 3, 2023, the court issued a ruling, which granted the preliminary injunction motion with respect to any purported misappropriation of SolarPark’s trade secrets. The court’s ruling does not prohibit the Company from producing shingled modules or from utilizing its own patents for the manufacture of shingled modules. The court denied SolarPark’s motion seeking a defamation injunction. The court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss and granted the Company’s motion to stay the entire litigation pending the arbitration in Singapore. On September 1, 2023, the Company filed a Limited Notice of Appeal to appeal the August 2023 order granting SolarPark’s motion for preliminary injunction. On September 26, 2023, Solaria filed a Notice of Withdrawal of Appeal and will not appeal the Court’s Preliminary Injunction Order. Between August 2023 and March 2024, the parties were engaged in discovery negotiations and the Company produced documents to SolarPark. The Company produced its last set of documents on March 14, 2024. Since then, SolarPark has been reviewing the documents, and the case has remained stayed.

No liability has been recorded in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as the likelihood of a loss is not probable at this time.

Siemens litigation

On July 27, 2023, Siemens Government Technologies moved to amend the complaint to add Siemens Industry Inc. as a co-plaintiff. This motion was granted on August 25, 2023. On October 23, 2023, Siemens Government Technologies and Siemens Industry Inc. (collectively, “Siemens”) and Solaria Corporation stipulated to add Solar CA, LLC as a co-defendant. Solaria Corporation and Solar CA, LLC (collectively, the “Subsidiaries”) are both wholly-owned subsidiaries of Complete Solaria, Inc.

Siemens claimed damages of approximately $6.9 million, inclusive of amounts of the Subsidiaries’ indemnity obligations to Siemens, plus attorneys’ fees.

On February 22, 2024, the Court issued an order against the Subsidiaries which awarded Siemens approximately $6.9 million, inclusive of the amounts of the Subsidiaries’ indemnity obligations to Siemens, plus attorneys’ fees, the amount of which would be determined at a later hearing. On March 15, 2024, Siemens filed a motion seeking to recover $2.67 million for attorneys’ fees, expenses, and pre-and post-judgment interest. The Company opposed Siemens’ motion for attorneys’ fees, expenses, and pre- and post-judgment interest on April 5, 2024. On June 17, 2024, the Court entered a final order which awarded Siemens a total of $2.0 million in attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company has appealed these judgments.

In addition to the above, on August 19, 2024, Siemens applied for the enforcement to a sister state judgment in the Superior Court of Alameda, California and the court entered a judgement in favor of Siemens. On December 9, 2024, Siemens moved to amend the judgment to add Complete Solaria, Inc. as a judgement debtor. The subsidiaries opposed the Siemens motion. On June 30, 2025, the California court found that Complete Solaria, Inc. should be added as a Judgment Debtor party in California. The Company plans to appeal the California court’s decision. IN addition, the parties argued the appeal the of the underlying Virginia litigation on July 24, 2025. There is no projected date for the appellate court’s decision at this time.

The Company recognized $6.9 million as a legal loss related to this litigation in 2023 which amount is included in the $7.7 million legal settlements disclosed above.

The Company recorded an additional expense of $2.0 million within discontinued operations in its unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) in the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2024, for attorneys’ fees, expenses, and pre-judgment interest, and this liability was recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 29, 2025, and December 29, 2024.
