Issuanceof US$5 million of Series 2025-A2 Notes and Warrants
OnOctober 31, 2025, US$5 million was funded in exchange for the issuance to the OIC Investors of US$5 million aggregate principal amountof Series 2025-A2 Notes in exchange for interest thereon, in accordance with the Fifth Supplemental Indenture. Additionally, the OICInvestors were issued Additional New Warrants (the “2025 OIC Warrant”) on a fully diluted basis, in the form furnished asExhibit 99.5 to this report to purchase an aggregate number of shares equal to 5.0% of the Company’s shares outstanding, determinedon a “Fully-Diluted Basis” in the same manner as applicable to the existing warrants previously issued to the OIC Investors,and otherwise containing the same terms as the warrants issued to the OIC Investors in prior reserve releases.
Ifthe 2025-A2 Seventh Release of funding proceeds, the OIC Investors will hold Additional New Warrants, together with the other warrantsthey have previously received pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, to purchase an aggregate number of shares equal to approximately68% of the Company’s shares outstanding (up from 61% prior to entry into the foregoing amendments), determined on a “Fully-DilutedBasis”.
TheCompany paid its legal expenses and those of the OIC Investors and the holders of the Series 2023-A Notes, together with other transaction-relatedcosts and fees in connection with the foregoing arrangements and amendments, which were deducted from the proceeds from the Series 2025-A2Sixth Release paid to the Company. Giving effect to the receipt of the net proceeds from the Series 2025-A2 Sixth Release, the Companyhas approximately US$8.8 million of unrestricted cash and approximately US$2.4 million of restricted cash as of October 31, 2025.
Aspreviously disclosed in the Company’s release of July 25, 2025, the Company has a number of new programs entering, or expectedto enter, production in the near-term, however, as a result of a decline in the volume of wheels ordered or projected to be ordered bycertain customers, the Company revised its revenue forecasts downward and slowed its initial short-term expansion plans.
TheCompany has continued to experience lower than expected demand for certain programs, especially those tied to the EV space. The weakeningof the broader EV market has led to the early cancellation of two programs by a customer, which the Company had initially expected tocontribute substantial wheel volumes. The Company is pursuing claims in relation to these cancelled programs.
Inaddition, as disclosed in the Company’s release of June 3, 2025, the Company is currently not in compliance with certain Nasdaqcontinued listing requirements. The Company has submitted a plan of compliance to Nasdaq where it has sought an extension in accordancewith its plan and is waiting for Nasdaq’s determination. However, even if such plan is accepted, the Nasdaq staff only has thediscretion to grant an exception for regaining compliance until November 26, 2025.
Notwithstandingthe additional US$5 million of OIC funding announced today (and the expected release of a further US$2 million of OIC funding), the Companyexpects that it may need to obtain additional funding in the short term and is actively seeking other strategic alternatives to be completedwithin this fiscal year (ending June 30, 2026).
Inorder to obtain sufficient liquidity to fund its business and operations, the extent of which funding need is partially dependent uponthe outcome of the customer claims being pursued by the Company mentioned above, as well as to contribute towards regaining compliancewith Nasdaq continued listing requirements, the Company is exploring other potential strategic and financing options, a portion of whichmay need to be obtained significantly earlier than the end of the Company’s fiscal year. The Company makes no assurances that itwill be able to secure any of the aforementioned on satisfactory terms, or at all.
TheSixth SPA Amendment, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, the Form of the Series 2025-A2 Notes, the Ninth Amendment and the Form of the2025 OIC Warrant, are furnished as Exhibits 99.1, 99.2, 99.3, 99.4 and 99.5. The foregoing descriptions are qualified in their entiretyby the text of such exhibits.
