Subsequent to Quarter End

Thunder Power Holdings received a final delisting notice from Nasdaq following an April 15, 2025 hearing, resulting in the suspension of trading on Nasdaq and the removal of AIEV from related indices. Effective April 21, 2025, the company's shares began trading on the OTC Pink Open Market under the symbol AIEV. In May, Thunder Power submitted its application to uplist to the OTCQB Venture Market, with plans to reapply for a Nasdaq listing once eligible. The Company stated that this transition does not affect its business operations or SEC reporting requirements and continues to pursue strategic initiatives, including its pending share exchange with Electric Power Technology Limited, which is publicly traded on the Taipei Exchange (TPEX) in Taiwan under its stock ticker symbol 4529, and ongoing M&A activities in the green energy sector.

Christopher Nicoll, Chief Executive Officer of Thunder Power, commented, "We remain steadfast in our commitment to building a differentiated electric vehicle platform, despite the challenges faced this quarter. Our team has continued to advance our product development roadmap and execute on our strategic initiatives, including the amended share exchange agreement with Electric Power Technology. While the current capital markets environment and the recent Nasdaq suspension have presented real obstacles, we are actively pursuing new financing avenues and partnerships to support our long-term vision. We believe the foundation we are laying today through disciplined operational management and a focus on innovation will position Thunder Power to capture emerging opportunities in the global EV market as we move closer to commercialization."

Pending Share Exchange Transaction with Electric Power Technology Limited

On March 4, 2025, TW Company announced that it entered into equity trading agreements with shareholders of Laiyang Solar Energy Co. (Laiyang) and Jinlaiyang Solar Energy Co. (Jinlaiyang) for the purchase of 4.4 megawatts generation capacity, which are expected to provide additional solar energy exposure for both TW Company and Thunder Power. Solar generation in Taiwan represented 5% of the electricity market in 2024. The Taiwanese government has set a target for 15% of the island's electricity to come from renewable energy sources by 2025. Solar is forecasted to grow to 35% of total installed generation capacity by 2035. TW Company is listed on the Taipei Exchange under the code 4529.

Product Development, Partnerships, and Strategic Transactions

In parallel with ongoing EV product development, the Company executed significant strategic transactions to strengthen its platform and expand its international footprint. On December 19, 2024, Thunder Power entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with certain shareholders of Electric Power Technology Limited ("TW Company"), a Taiwan corporation. Under this agreement, as amended on January 27, 2025 and May 14, 2025, the Company will acquire approximately 30.8% of TW Company's total issued and outstanding shares in exchange for newly issued shares of Thunder Power common stock. The transaction, which remains subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals, is expected to enhance Thunder Power's access to advanced technologies and manufacturing capabilities in Taiwan, supporting its long-term growth and global expansion strategy.

Additionally, the Company continues to pursue partnerships and capital market initiatives, including the implementation of a forward purchase agreement and a common stock purchase agreement with institutional investors. These arrangements are designed to provide Thunder Power with greater financial flexibility as it moves toward commercialization of its clean energy strategy.
