Current report

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Factorial Energy Inc. (“Factorial Energy,” “Factorial,” ”Company,” “we” “our” or “us”) should be read together with the audited annual financial statements of Factorial Inc. (“Legacy Factorial”), our predecessor reporting entity, for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 which are included in the proxy statement/prospectus dated as of, and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") pursuant to Rule 424(b) on, May 6, 2026 (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) beginning on Page F-25, and Factorial Energy’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”). This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations, estimates, and assumptions concerning events and financial trends that may affect our future operating results or financial position. Our actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below and those discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” included in this Quarterly Report.

Current report

Factorial, a US-based leader in solid-state battery technology, develops next generation battery technology for planned use by drone, mobile robots, roadgoing vehicles, energy storage, and other demanding applications. Our FEST® cells are designed to meet the demands of the high-power market and, relative to conventional Li-ion batteries, deliver lighter weight, smaller size, longer life, and faster charging, in each case meeting or exceeding conventional batteries in each of these key parameters we believe are valued by end users. In addition, for some of our customers whose applications do not need all of the benefits of our solid-state technology, we develop batteries that combine a lithium metal anode and a liquid electrolyte. Such batteries provide some of the improved size, weight and duration of our solid-state battery technology at a lower cost and faster timeline to production.

Current report

Factorial is a development stage company with no revenue to date that has incurred a net loss of approximately $11.3 million and $19.9 million, with cash used in operations of $0.5 million and $11.4 million, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $275.5 million as of June 30, 2026.

Current report

On December 17, 2025, Legacy Factorial entered into a definitive business combination agreement, as amended on March 26, 2026 and May 18, 2026 (as amended, the “BCA”), with Fenway MS, Inc., (“Merger Sub”), and Cartesian Growth Corporation III (“CGC”). Pursuant to the BCA, and after CGC’s shareholders voted to approve it, Merger Sub, a newly formed subsidiary of CGC, merged with and into Legacy Factorial (the “Merger”). On June 5, 2026 (the “Closing”), the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased to exist, and Legacy Factorial survived and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CGC. In connection with the consummation of the Merger, CGC changed its corporate name to Factorial Energy Inc. The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Legacy Factorial was deemed the accounting acquirer and the combined entity is the successor SEC registrant, meaning that Legacy Factorial’s financial statements for previous periods will be disclosed in the registrant’s future periodic reports filed with the SEC. Under this method of accounting, CGC was treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. As a result of the closing of the Merger, the most significant change in Legacy Factorial’s financial position and results is a $92.0 million net increase in cash and cash equivalents (as compared to Legacy Factorial’s consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2026), which includes $112.1 million in gross proceeds from the sale of a private placement (the “PIPE Financing”) of Class A ordinary shares of CGC, par value $0.0001 per share (the “CGC Class A Shares”) (inclusive of the proceeds from the trust account resulting from an aggregate of 3,470,764 shares (the “NRA Shares”) of Class A ordinary shares of CGC, par value $0.0001 per share (the “CGC Class A Shares”) acquired by an affiliate of CGC III Sponsor LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Sponsor” and such affiliate, the “Sponsor Investor”) and a certain institutional investor (the “Institutional Investor,” and together with the Sponsor Investor, the “PIPE Investors” to satisfy their obligations under the applicable Investor Stock Purchase Agreement) that was received at the Closing offset by the transaction expenses. Transaction expenses paid at the Closing for the Merger and PIPE Financing were approximately $20.1 million.

Current report

As a result of the Merger, Factorial became the successor to an SEC-registered and Nasdaq-listed company, which will require Factorial to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. Factorial expects to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees, and additional internal and external accounting, legal, and administrative resources, including increased personnel costs, audit and other professional service fees.

Current report

Factorial currently conducts its business through one operating segment. As a pre-revenue company with no commercial operations, Factorial’s activities to date have been limited and were conducted primarily in the United States and Korea and its historical results are reported under U.S. GAAP and in U.S. dollars. Factorial’s Korean subsidiary’s functional currency is the Korean Won. Upon commencement of commercial operations, Factorial expects to expand its global operations substantially, including in the United States, Asia, and the European Union, and as a result Factorial expects its future results to be sensitive to foreign currency transaction and translation risks and other financial risks that are not reflected in its historical financial statements. As a result, Factorial expects that the financial results it reports for periods after it begins commercial operations will not be comparable to the financial results included in this Quarterly Report.

Current report

Factorial is a research and development stage company, and its historical results may not be indicative of its future results for reasons that may be difficult to anticipate. Accordingly, the drivers of Factorial’s future financial results, as well as the components of such results, may not be comparable to Factorial’s historical or projected results of operations.

Current report

To date, Factorial’s research and development expenses have consisted primarily of personnel-related expenses for scientists, experienced engineers and technicians as well as costs associated with the expansion and ramp up of our engineering facility in the United States and Cheonan, South Korea, including the material and supplies to support the product development and process engineering efforts. As Factorial ramps up its engineering operations to complete the development of its solid-state, lithium-metal batteries and required process engineering to meet automotive cost targets, Factorial anticipates that research and development expenses will increase significantly for the foreseeable future as Factorial expands its hiring of scientists, engineers, and technicians and continues to invest in additional plant and equipment for product development (e.g. multi-layer cell stacking, packaging and engineering), building prototypes, and testing of battery cells as the team works to meet the full set of Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEMs”) product requirements.

Current report

General and administrative expenses consist mainly of personnel-related expenses for Factorial’s executive, sales and marketing and other administrative functions and expenses for outside professional services, including legal, accounting and other advisory services. Factorial is expanding its headcount in anticipation of planning for and ramping up commercial manufacturing operations and to meet public company financial and compliance requirements. Accordingly, in addition to the non-recurring transaction costs discussed above, Factorial expects its general and administrative expenses to increase significantly in the near term and for the foreseeable future. Upon commencement of commercial operations, Factorial also expects general and administrative expenses to include sales, marketing and advertising costs.

Current report

Factorial’s other income (expense) consists of interest income from interest-bearing accounts, interest expense, and the effects of foreign currency.

Current report

Factorial’s income tax provision consists of an estimate for U.S. federal and state income taxes based on enacted rates, as adjusted for allowable credits, deductions, uncertain tax positions, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in the tax law. Factorial maintains a valuation allowance against the full value of its U.S. and state net deferred tax assets because Factorial believes the recoverability of the tax assets is not more likely than not.

Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 to the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2025

Current report

The following tables set forth Factorial’s historical operating results for the periods indicated:

Current report

Research and development expenses decreased by $0.2 million, or 2.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily the result of lower facility costs from the closing of our Methuen facility in October 2025 offset by increased research and development activities and engineering services.

Current report

Research and development expenses decreased by $5.0 million, or 36.9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decline primarily resulted from the recognition of $3.6 million of expense reimbursements from joint development partners for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease is also attributed to lower facility costs from the closing of our Methuen facility.

Current report

General and administrative expenses increased by $1.7 million, or 37.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily driven by:

Previous report

We are a blank check company incorporated on October 29, 2024 as a Cayman Islands exempted company and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (“Business Combination”). We intend to effectuate our initial Business Combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement (as defined and described below), our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.

Previous report

While we may pursue our initial Business Combination in any business industry or sector, we are focused on seeking high-growth businesses with proven or potential transnational operations or outlooks in order to capitalize on the experience, reputation, and network of our management team. Furthermore, we seek target businesses where we believe we will have an opportunity to drive ongoing value creation after our initial Business Combination is completed.

Previous report

We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete our initial Business Combination will be successful.

Previous report

On December 17, 2025, the Company, Fenway MS, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Factorial Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Factorial”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”). The Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Proposed Business Combination”) were unanimously approved by the boards of directors and special committees comprised of independent and disinterested members of the boards of directors of each of the Company and Factorial. The Proposed Business Combination is expected to close in mid-2026, following the receipt of the requisite approvals of the Company’s shareholders and Factorial stockholders and the fulfillment of other customary closing conditions.

Previous report

On March 26, 2026, the Company, Merger Sub and Factorial entered into an Amendment to the Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA Amendment”). The BCA Amendment, among other things, (A) amends the sixth paragraph of the Preamble and inserts a new clause (a) into Section 2.1 of the Business Combination Agreement to provide that the Shareholder Redemption shall occur at least one day prior to the Domestication, thereby clarifying the timing and sequencing of the “Shareholder Redemption relative to the Domestication; (B) amends certain definitions, including the definition of “Ancillary Documents” to remove references to the “CGC Private Warrant Exchange Agreement,” the definition of “Company Convertible Notes” to mean any convertible note or other equity-linked debt instrument convertible into Equity Securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries outstanding as of the Merger Effective Time; (C) amends clause (b)(iii) of Section 5.8 of the Business Combination Agreement to bifurcate the previously singular “Nasdaq Proposal” into two distinct proposals to be submitted to the Company’s shareholders for approval: (i) the adoption and approval of the issuance of shares in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and (ii) the adoption and approval of the issuance of CGC Shares in connection with the PIPE Financing, and consequently update the definition of “Nasdaq Proposal” to read “Nasdaq Proposals;” and (D) amend and restate Sections 5.21 and 5.22 of the Business Combination Agreement to remove the provisions related to the Warrant Exchange.

Previous report

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from October 29, 2024 (inception) through March 31, 2026 were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for our initial Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our initial Business Combination. Subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, we generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in the trust account established for the benefit of our public shareholders (the “Trust Account”), with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with searching for, and completing, our initial Business Combination.

Previous report

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had a net income of $1,680,417, which consisted of interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $2,491,718, offset by general and administrative costs of $811,301.

Previous report

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we had a net loss of $20,449, which consisted of general and administrative costs.

Previous report

Until the consummation of the Initial Public Offering, our only source of liquidity was an initial purchase of Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (“founder shares”), by the Sponsor and CGC III Sponsor DirectorCo LLC (“DirectorCo” and together with the Sponsor in such capacity, our “initial shareholders”), and a loan from the Sponsor pursuant to an unsecured promissory note (the “Sponsor Promissory Note”). As of May 5, 2025, we had borrowed $250,000 under the Sponsor Promissory Note, which was repaid simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering.

Previous report

On May 5, 2025, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 27,600,000 units (the “Units”) at $10.00 per Unit, which included the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option of 3,600,000 Units. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A ordinary shares”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of an aggregate of 6,800,000 private placement warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $1.00 per warrant, in a private placement to the Sponsor and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”), the representative of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering, generating gross proceeds of $6,800,000 (the “Private Placement”).

Previous report

Following the Initial Public Offering, including the full exercise of the over-allotment option, and the Private Placement, a total of $276,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $18,821,468 of transaction costs, consisting of $4,800,000 of cash underwriting commissions, $13,140,000 of deferred underwriting commissions, and $881,468 of other offering costs (including repayment of the Sponsor Promissory Note).

Previous report

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, cash used in operating activities was $227,953. Net income of $1,680,417 was affected by interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $2,491,718. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $583,348 of cash for operating activities.

Previous report

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, cash used in operating activities was $0. Net loss of $20,449 was affected by payment of expenses through promissory note – related party of $20,449.

Previous report

As of March 31, 2026, we had marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $285,868,994 (including approximately $9,868,994 of interest income) consisting of mutual funds primarily invested in U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of 185 days or less. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (excluding deferred underwriting commissions and less taxes payable, if any), net of redemptions, to complete our initial Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our initial Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.

Previous report

As of March 31, 2026, we had cash of $396,210. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, structure, negotiate and complete an initial Business Combination, and to pay for directors and officers liability insurance premiums.

Previous report

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If we complete our initial Business Combination, we would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that our initial Business Combination does not close, we may use a portion of the funds held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, no such Working Capital Loans were outstanding.

Previous report

In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern,” management has determined that our liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after the Completion Window.

Previous report

We believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business prior to our initial Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our initial Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our public shares upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such initial Business Combination.

Previous report

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2026.

Previous report

We do not have any long-term debt obligations, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations, purchase obligations or other long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay the Sponsor an aggregate of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative support. We began incurring these fees on May 1, 2025 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of our initial Business Combination and our liquidation.

Previous report

We granted the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering a 45-day option from May 1, 2025, the effective date of the registration statements for the Initial Public Offering, to purchase up to an additional 3,600,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the Initial Public Offering price less underwriting discounts and commissions. On May 2, 2025, the underwriters fully exercised their over-allotment option, closing on the 3,600,000 additional Units simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering.

Previous report

The underwriters of the Initial Public Offering are entitled to a deferred underwriting discount of 4.50% of the gross proceeds of the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account, other than the gross proceeds from Units sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-

Previous report

allotment option, and 6.50% of the gross proceeds from Units sold pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option, or $13,140,000 in the aggregate. Subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement for the Initial Public Offering, the deferred underwriting discount (i) will become payable to such underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete our initial Business Combination and (ii) will be waived by such underwriters in the event that we do not complete our initial Business Combination.

Previous report

On December 17, 2025, we entered into a Fee Modification Agreement with Cantor in connection with its contemplated business combination with Factorial Inc., pursuant to which Cantor agreed to modify the previously agreed $13,140,000 deferred underwriting commission. If the business combination with Factorial Inc. is consummated, we (or the target or successor) will pay Cantor a non-refundable modified deferred fee payable at closing equal to $3.75 million plus amounts based on the value of public shares not redeemed in the transaction, subject to an aggregate cap of $13.0 million.

Previous report

The holders of the founder shares (and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of the founder shares), Private Placement Warrants (and the Class A ordinary shares underlying such Private Placement Warrants), and private placement equivalent-warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans have registration rights to require us to register a sale of any of our securities held by them and any other securities of the Company acquired by them prior to the consummation of our initial Business Combination pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on May 1, 2025, the effective date of the registration statements for the Initial Public Offering. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that we register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of our initial Business Combination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Cantor may only make a demand on one occasion and only during the five-year period beginning from the commencement of sales in the Initial Public Offering. In addition, Cantor may participate in a “piggy-back” registration only during the seven-year period beginning from the commencement of sales in the Initial Public Offering. We will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Previous report

The preparation of the unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. We have identified the following critical accounting estimates and accounting policies:

Previous report

We accounted for the public warrants and Private Placement Warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the private placement in accordance with the guidance contained in FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Accordingly, the Company evaluated and classified the warrant instruments under equity treatment at their assigned values. The public warrants have been classified within shareholders’ deficit and will not require remeasurement after issuance.

Previous report

The fair value of the public warrants at issuance was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The valuation required the use of significant assumptions, including expected share price volatility, risk-free interest rate, market-implied probability of completing a business combination, our share price, and the expected remaining term of the warrants. Changes in these assumptions could have a material impact on the estimated fair value of the warrants.

Previous report

The public shares contain a redemption feature which allows for the redemption of such public shares in connection with our liquidation, or if there is a shareholder vote or tender offer in connection with our initial Business Combination. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, we classify public shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within our control. We recognize changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and will adjust the carrying value of redeemable shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption value. The change in the carrying value of redeemable shares will result

Previous report

in charges against additional paid-in capital (to the extent available) and then to accumulated deficit. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of our condensed balance sheets.
